> "I called Childs Roofing to discuss my leaking roof, they visited two days later, correctly identified the problem and three days after that the work was completed. The actual work was carried out with care, and I was advised throughout what was being done. The site was left clean and tidy; the price of the work was fair to both of us. I would be happy to use this company again in the future."

Excellent professional service, very friendly company, arrived when they said they would and worked continuously over two days. All debris etc was completely cleared away.

## 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.
