Highlights
"Steve is a wonderful plasterer, he plastered the inside of our extension beautifully and also rendered the outside and retaining walls that look fantastic. We even asked him back to do our new downstairs cloakroom Very reasonable priced, polite and tidy would use again!"
"This is our second time working with Steve, and once again, he has exceeded our expectations. We needed the exterior of our extension rendered, and despite the challenges of a tight working space, Steve delivered a flawless finish. He was punctual, professional, and efficient throughout the process. We won’t hesitate to call on him for our next project stage."
"Steve did a fantastic job plastering our extension. He responded quickly to our inquiry and visited twice—first to assess the project and again after construction of the extension had progressed to provide an accurate quote. He was courteous, professional, and highly knowledgeable. He patiently answered all my questions and offered great advice. The work was completed swiftly to a brilliant finish, and he kept everything clean and tidy throughout. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Steve’s services again!"

"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.
