We have witnessed the aftermath of many clients who been conned by hiring COWBOY ARCHITECT (a name given to the person or company acting dishonesty as qualified & licenced architect). Seeing the devastation, Architect’s HQ Ltd has started a campaign to stop this behaviour immediately and to alert general public of their shortcoming and to advise the best course of action to stop this.

It is well documented that building project consist of many problems, however to enable a good chance of minimising  the struggle the client would need to receive the right architectural advice from the very begining of the process. If not, you would more than likely enter the ever growing club of victims who are suffering alone from projects that have gone disasterly wrong.

Please follow the link to see examples of bodge jobs as catalogue on the national TV show; www.cowboybuilders.tv  You will note an common pattern has emerge from each case, the client not knowing the process nor having an architect to police their contractor behaviour or possessing the tools or knowledge to fight for their interest to deliver their project’s vision.

The root cause to the above is the poor preparation and advice given to the client by the ‘Cowboy’ architect. Unfortunately there isn’t the same level of exposure to identify the fraudsters, hence why Architect’s HQ Ltd have started this campaign.

The architectural profession is tarnished and undervalued by the damage caused by these individuals/ companies who deceive clients and are a menace to society.

Here are few examples of projects which have been advertised on national newspaper that have gone wrong due to the poor quality of architectural service received. As you will see each project has either been stopped, altered or changed for the worst, to save money or comply with Planning or Building Control or Health & Safety measures. And most of the time the victim is left on his/her own to deal with the mess. One cannot imagine the misery or the everlasting damage it has caused to  individual and families until is over;

We don’t want you to become the next potential victim, who is risking life by living in a dangerous structure as you have no where go or to get help, Thus, it is vitally important Clients understand their rights and made to recognise the potential danger to expose to their project by hiring the wrong person. To safeguard people livelihoods and improve the standard of architecture in England we need your support to grow this CAMPAIGN to stop and root out the Cowboy Architects.
