## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this trader's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "If you’re here, stop scrolling, stop looking, book Damien now!!! ….. Wow!!! I’ve had some renovation nightmares and I so was anxious about the kitchen reno. I needn’t have been. Damien was amazing from start to finish. The quality of the workmanship was outstanding. Damien did our kitchen like he was doing his own, absolute perfection, only the best, and no corners cut. I could go on and on and on!! Put it this way - I can be hard to please when it comes to the house stuff, but I am ecstatic with my new kitchen … will recommend Damien to everyone. ."

> "Absolutely over the moon with our new kitchen. Damien was honest from the start, I had around 8 quotes and he was by far the one I felt we could trust 100%. I wasnt wrong. He turned up early and worked all day long. The quote given was very good and didnt change unless I asked for a price for anything extra like plastering I didnt originally request. I would recommend him to anyone and already have to a few people. Love my new kitchen. Thank you so much"

> "Damien recently completed our kitchen installation, and the quality of work is outstanding. Every cabinet, joint, and surface has been finished to a high standard, and the whole kitchen looks fantastic. Damien clearly takes pride in delivering excellent craftsmanship. We're thrilled with the end result and wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to friends and family"

## 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.
