"Olympus Landscape & Perfections just completed installing 3 French drains, laying 2 pallets of Emerald zoysia, putting down a border around an area with river pebbles in our back yard. They did a good job and I was extremely impressed with their hard work ethics and desire to make us happy with the job."

"I am so thankful I found Robyn to help me with my recent kitchen renovation. I had never undertaken such a big home project before. I was overwhelmed with paint choices for cabinets and picking out coordinating countertop and backsplash. Robynâ s knowledge of trends and color schemes steered me in the right direction. She put together styles and materials I would have never thought of using to enable me to capture the vision I had for my kitchen. The Power Point slides she created of different color scheme options aided me tremendously in my decision-making process. Robyn is such a pleasure to work with, enthusiastic, open to any of your ideas and notions, and has such a positive attitude. She made my intimidating concept into my home renovation a fun and joyful experience by happily pointing me in the right direction for a fantastic outcome. I couldnâ t have completed my kitchen project without her. I highly recommend her for any home renovations and would absolutely call upon her expertise in the future."

"Matt is very professional. I have used him for a least a dozen different projects over the years. He has done design, construction, repairs, furniture assembly. 2 Cad projects, designed and built a whole deck, and put together countless pieces of furniture. If it is a project that he can't do, he always helps me find another qualified professional. Will definitely continue to use"

"Jose and his crew were prompt and thorough and did a great job on a much shorter time frame than I expected. Unlike many contractors, they cleaned up after themselves and left everything better than they found it. The finish on my driveway is excellent And the workmanship outstanding. I would definitely recommend him for any concrete jobs you have"

"Overly impressed, I have never seen a guy eyeball a project right in front of a customer and then hit it dead on the head with measurements and project cost and under my budget. Matt (the owner) was very punctual, well spoken, and informative about the build. Most informational hour of conversation I've had in a while and I'm an Architect. 5 Star service at a 3 star price."

Architects questions, answered by experts

The most common scale for residential blueprints is 1/4 of an inch equals one foot. This scale is the most popular because it’s easier for everyone involved, from professionals to homeowners, to understand the building’s actual dimensions. Also, it allows blueprints to have the necessary details without cluttering the page.

Some architects include interior design in their portfolio of offerings, while some architectural firms employ interior designers to handle that aspect of home building projects or refer clients to interior designers they’ve worked with in the past. Ask a local architect whether they offer interior design services as well.

With proper training and experience, reading blueprints is fairly straightforward and not very difficult. If you don’t have the necessary knowledge to interpret the symbols, abbreviations, and other notations used, blueprints may not make sense. Learning to read blueprints can help you understand the construction process and keep you more involved and informed when you’re building a house.

As with most large-scale home renovation projects, you’ll need an architect to map out the exact layout and specs of your above-garage room, which is required in many municipalities. Some general contractors will serve as your architect, or they may bring on a residential architect to assist with the plans.

The primary reason homes have crawl spaces is so the foundation can reach down below the frost line to avoid dangerous soil movement and structural damage when the ground freezes. They’re more popular in colder climates where the ground freezes down to a few feet, and slabs are most popular in warmer areas where there is no frost line. Crawl spaces also provide a space for utility lines to run where they’re at less of a risk of freezing.
