## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this tradesperson's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "I cant express enough how efficient and professional this company was. I waited six week for this service and after 6 week there were no results. Once i got hold of VAKA Architects it took two and half days for my plans to be drawn up AND submitted to council. Their service was not only professional but it was extremely fast and on track at all times. I was contact on a daily basis on what was happening, I was kept in the loop all the time. This company deserve the best rating that anyone should get. I rate Vaka Architects with 5 starts and nothing less. Well done Vaka Architects. Pam Bester"

> "We are so glad that VAKA assisted us with a design proposal for a challenging housing scheme in downtown Johannesburg. Through out the process, we were particularly impressed by their enthusiasm and solution driven approach. We're pleased to say it resulted in a proposal that was delivered on time within budget and tailored to our needs. Thank you VAKA, we will certainly be in touch again for collaboration in the future!"

## Before you hire an architect
_What to check when choosing this kind of trade (general guidance, not a claim about this business):_
- In South Africa, electrical work must be signed off with a Certificate of Compliance (CoC) issued by a registered person. Insist on the CoC, and for plumbing look for PIRB or IOPSA registration, because without a valid CoC a future home-insurance claim can be refused.
- For a new home or major structural build, the builder must be registered with the NHBRC (National Home Builders Registration Council) and the home enrolled before construction. Check this before you pay a deposit.
- 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.
- Get a written, itemised quote with scope, assumptions and a staged payment schedule.
