Highlights
"Needed planned drawings for internal knock through a bungalow - they were excellent and very efficient - would def recommend them to anyone needing scaled drawings and help with refurbishing"
"I had a fantastic experience working with Shahin. He was extremely polite, professional, and helpful from start to finish. He took the time to listen carefully to my needs, explained everything clearly, and was always patient and responsive. His guidance made the entire process smooth and stress-free. I highly recommend Shahin!"

"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.
