## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this trader's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "I needed some tiles to be replaced on my roof after some scaffolding damage. Dorset Group were there to help and replaced the tiles with reclaimed ones, resulting in a perfect match. Can’t fault this company. Fast response, polite and very good price. Will most definitely use again."
> — Anonymous (5.0, via Checkatrade)

> "Dorset and Hampshire Roofing were a pleasure to deal with from start to finish. They turned up on time, worked hard, and delivered exactly what they promised. The fact they have their own scaffolding made things quicker and more affordable, which was a real bonus. You can tell they take pride in their work – everything was done to a high standard and the site was left spotless. Would definitely use them again and happily recommend them to anyone needing roofing work."

## 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.
