## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this trader's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "Palmeria BW and Serving were completely brilliant today. I had pulled the back panel off my car when parking and it had broken the clips. They stopped the work they were doing on another car, fixed the panel whilst I waited and did not charge me for the job. Could not believe how amazing they were. I will definitely be returning to them now for MOT or any other work needed."

> "My fiesta failed its MOT as this fault was considered to weaken the structure. The job required five hours of work and though the car is an 09 registration, and this was not a very visible location, they took a lot of trouble over the finishing. When taking it back to the MOT garage for a retest they seemed very impressed with quality of the work."

> "Excellent! After a terrible week of my nan passing away and then being made redundant, I managed to hit a bollard quite badly. Not a big deal in the grand scheme of things, but the last thing I needed. I went for a quote and was given what I expect was a very fair one, but way out of my budget at the moment. The person I saw very kindly buffed out what he could and made it all look a whole lot better and advised what I could do in the meantime until I could afford to get it fixed. This kindness was appreciated so much! I would not hesitate to take my car here in the future. Thank you."

## 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.
