> "Tony stepped in and took over from another architect we had hired who had been useless. He visited the site often and asked lots of questions in order to ascertain what we wanted. At every step of the way he kept us informed of the process, had great knowledge of the local planning department and made great suggestions if we were unsure of anything we hadn't thought about. He has lots of contacts with other trades so that even the unusual didn't phase him. He was polite, professional and very easy to work with. I highly recommend him."

> "I have worked with Tony on a few Projects recently. His drawings are very detailed which makes it clear and easy to understand. In my opinion having detailed drawings like the ones Tony produces, helps all parties involved, the builder, building control and especially the customer to understand the project. It also helps that he is very easy to get one with and takes any comments on board"

## Before you hire an architect
_What to check when choosing this kind of trade (general guidance, not a claim about this business):_
- 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.
