Highlights
"Ledger Roofing Company was excellent in every way. Fred was honest, kind and reliable but above all did an excellent job."
"Roofers of Kent have done work at both my mums house and mine. On both occasions they were prompt, polite and informative, explaining the best options for the work required and providing reasonable quotes. They carried out the work in a timely and tidy manor. I would not hesitate to recommend them."
"The job was carried out in October 2022. A year later there were problems which were partially fixed by Roofers of Kent, but there continues to be an issue with leakage. Have tried to contact the company but messages go unanswered. The roof has a 15-year guarantee but, despite this, have offered payment for the necessary repairs. I am very surprised that no one has come back to me, as the work carried out was good, and handled professionally by the company's personnel. Follow-up is obviously not so good."

"Architect" is a title protected by law - only people on the official Architects Register (held by ARB) may use it. Confirm they're on it before you commission a design.
Check the Architects RegisterSmart checks
Before you hire an architect
Only someone on the Architects Registration Board (ARB) register may legally call themselves an 'architect' in the UK — ask for their ARB number and check it free at arb.org.uk. An 'architectural designer' or 'technologist' is a different, unregistered role (often capable, but not the same protection).
Agree how they charge before any work starts — a percentage of the build cost, a fixed fee, or an hourly rate — and exactly which stages it covers (concept design, planning application, building-regulations drawings, work on site), so there are no surprises later.
Confirm what they will actually handle versus what is excluded — the planning application, the building-control drawings, and whether they will administer the builder's contract on site — and get it, and a portfolio of similar projects, in writing.
Ask to see a portfolio of completed work like yours, plus recent references you can contact.
Check the credentials and registrations that matter for this work — and that they are current.
