Highlights
"Once again, Elliot and Dan have performed a miracle. We had a run down dilapidated room that had been used as a bedroom for multiple years. After they had completed my bathroom refurbishment to a very high standard, I asked them to come a provide a quote and some suggestions on what could be done to improve it. After discussing my options, I decided to replace the bay window as part of the project and they referred me to one of the suppliers they work with to supply & fit the window prior to the refurbishment taking place. Advice was given to colours / flooring and was completed before Xmas"
"A complete bathroom and toilet refurbishment by South East Renovations. This is a carefully assembled group of tradesmen. Some genuinely gifted tilers and fitters led by Elliot, Dan and Fatjon who communicated really well throughout the whole process and carefully QAed every step. Most importantly they listened carefully to us on daily basis and did everything in their power to deliver our vision. We now have a stunning bathroom and toilet, thanks team. We will be using them for the rest of the works on our house. Unreservedly recommended."
"Elliot and the team carried out a fairly extensive refurbishment for me and stayed engaged through to completion. Communication was good and they were responsive when things needed attention. Any snags towards the end were addressed and sorted. Overall, a hardworking team who saw the job through and delivered a solid finish. Would recommend."

"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.
