Highlights
"As per usual Ray carried out all agreed work to perfection. Service and mot on vehicle done promptly and was kept informed of any extra bits of work that were required. All done for an great price. Would highly recommend."
"Outstanding service, excellent pricing & very helpful with recent work on my car. From booking my car in, to confirming the work to even re setting my tyre pressure gauge which was noticed needed doing, the customer service was top notch. Highiy recommend to all & I will not take my car anywhere else now."
"I have been taking my some what elderly ford focus to Ray since I arrived in Epsom in 2021. The simplest way to describe Ray is he is that mechanic you always hope you'll find but very seldom do. The work is done to a high standard, price is good for the work and you get a full list of everything done. An old car can be a real pain if you don't have a good mechanic but mine still works perfectly and soon it won't even need road tax! If you have a problem or would just like an honest opinion on how to proceed, I would highly recommend giving Simpsons a try."

Smart 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.
