Highlights
"I met Scott, owner of the firm, when he came to quote the job. Scott provided the competitive quote. Scott was clear on when he was likely to be able to undertake the work and kept in contact via WhatsApp. Scott completed the work, with a roofers mate. The work was completed without delay from the beginning and replaced my flat roof in two days, with other repairs completed too."
"An excellent service. Replaced broken slate on roof efficiently and without fuss. Scott carried out the work within a few days of my contacting him. I would recommend him ."
"Scott at S C Hammond Roofing and John did a fantastic job in accomodating us and our requirements with a flat roof issue, went above and beyond normal expectations, (for a roofer is rare) even repaired damaged left by other tradesmen. and cleared up after them selves exceptionally. thank you for an excellent Job and Service."

"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.
