"Richard fitted 1 new and 2 replacement Velux windows for our new house in West wittering. He was really helpful in fitting us in to a busy schedule, and we’re very pleased with the results. Thanks Richard."

"Richard gave me a very competitive quote for the work to repair my listed building tiled roof. Some tiles had come loose in the storm. The gutter too needed cleaning. Richard has a cherry picker and was able to access the roof to make the repair and clean out the gutter. He came within a couple of days of the quote and efficiently completed the job without any fuss or extra charges. I am delighted with this company and will definitely contact them again (I have been ripped off twice before by other roofers) Richard expressed an interest in old buildings and has much experience in renovation."

"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 Register
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.
