## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this trader's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "Ashley and his team did a great job with our garage conversion this summer. Work progressed speedily after the original garage concrete roof was removed during the hottest part of the summer. Everything finished to a high standard, good interworking with the company delivering the French doors. Interiors plastered to a high standard alongside the electrician. Russell visited after work completed to check everything."
> — Peter W (5.0, via Checkatrade)

> "We had all the soffits, fascias and gutters replaced on our house. Russell came out to give us a quote very quickly, and gave us a date for the work to be done. The work started as scheduled (actually a day early) and finished on time. The team were very professional and friendly, turned up on time every day in spite of lots of rain, carried out the work efficiently, and left everything tidy and clean. Highly recommended."
> — Anonymous (5.0, via Checkatrade)

> "Really pleased with the service from the day Russell came to quote. Russell promised the work would make the house look really smart and he was right. We had tiles re-bedded and soffits replaced back and front and insulation and re-cladding of the front of our house. The team were diligent & polite, here at 8am every day and did a great job."
> — Phillippa D (4.8, via Checkatrade)

## 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.
