“The design carried out was exactly as I’d imagined. They were a pleasure to deal with, nothing was too much trouble, great ideas and always so helpful and informative. COVID played a part in the timescales but it was completed surprising quick considering.”

“Ex Army are a very professional company, very easy to work with. Price was low compared to other companies but with no compromise to the build and quality. Ex-army Overcome any unforeseen problems with no extra charge, happy to accommodate changes to building drawings as the build was commencing John has vast experience and knowledge so would suggest cost saving ideas throughout the build I would highly recommend Ex-army builders, especially as they have a complete service under one roof which helps speed thigs up and when changes are made its done efficiently and withing cost.”

Verify at the sourceCheck them yourself
"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 RegisterOnly 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.
