Highlights
"We love our new kitchen and we're really thankful to Steve for doing an excellent job for a very good price. Everything turned out just as we imagined thanks to Steve and his planning of every little aspect. The thing I appreciated the most during the renovation was that I could rely on him being here at the agreed time. He was here day in and out until everything was finished. We're very pleased and will definitely contact Steve again for any future work."
"Steve completed three new bathrooms for us over the summer, and we are delighted with his work. He was professional, reliable and friendly and completed complex tasks skillfully, offering advice and suggestions for improvements. Steve covers all the trades of plumber, electrician, plasterer, joiner, tiler and problem-solver: no need to get other people in. Would highly recommend him."
"Thanks very much for fitting the kitchen and the advice on tiling and flooring. Steve was really good, turned up on time and was good to have around. Excellent tips and guidance on work I was planning to do myself. We'll ask for help again in the near future."

"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.
