Highlights
"I’ve used Wattons for work at my previous property, so when I recently moved to my new address and needed more work done, I didn’t hesitate to use them again. This time I had my whole roof re-felted and battened. The job was completed with no faults at all – the workmanship was absolutely spot on. Once the scaffolding was taken down, they even came back to clean up the bits of mess they couldn’t reach before. 10/10 workmanship and service. I would highly recommend them"
"This company is my mum's GUARDIAN ANGEL!!! It was raining in my mum's bedroom, Bob and his guys stuck around to help work out which chimney was the problem despite lots of issues which were not their fault. I never thought I'd say this about a builder but if you want reliable, decently priced work from a builder you can trust then Wattons Home Improvements are faultless. Thank you guys so much"
"Had a bit of an emergency with multiple leaks from rodent damage to pipes within the roof of my kitchen extension. Bob was very quick to respond to the call, and the team resolved the situation (and improved a few other issues with the roofing) promptly. Nice team of lads. Happy customer."

"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.
