"Pleasant on the phone but person was upfront in telling me they only do projects which exceed $5K. Since I didn't want or think my project was worth that I did not schedule an estimator to come out."

"Gary is professional, personable, reliable, and got the plans drawn up and approved quickly. He talked to the city planning dept ahead of drawing the plans to give them exactly what they wanted. He handled all of the interaction with the city planning dept. regarding the remodel. I would absolutely hire him again and will refer others to him because of the quality of the work he did in a realistic time frame."

"Very well. Blad and his team completed a total transformation of my front and back yard. The project was a complete success and he completed on time and on budget. My neighbors were amazed at the finished result and asked about Blad’s services. I subsequently hired Blad and his team for periodic maintenance and have been very pleased with his responsiveness."

Architects questions, answered by experts

The design phase varies by project size and complexity; initial ideas can take weeks, while extensive plans may extend to months for complete detailing.

You likely need to hire an architect for your new house design and build, unless you have the design skills and experience with building regulations and standards needed to get your plans approved. If you are able to meet the design requirements, you can hire a draftsperson to create the blueprints for the builders to follow.

When you think about Arts and Crafts-style homes, you probably think of a Craftsman house or a bungalow-style Craftsman. Craftsman is one of the major styles developed during the Arts and Crafts movement, but it checks most boxes. Craftsman houses have low-pitched roofs, exposed rafters, open floor plans, and stunning wood finish.

The various types of architects can be broken down into eight distinct categories, but there can be specific specialties within each of them. Most homeowners will work with a residential, restoration, green, interior, landscape, or retrofit architect for projects. There are also lighting and commercial architects whose work is geared more toward large spaces and businesses.

Whether you’re building a new home or building an extension on your existing property, you will likely need both a structural engineer and an architect. A structural engineer will determine what loads your foundation and framing can safely handle, and an architect will draw plans according to those structural calculations to simplify the building process. You can start by contacting a structural engineer near you, as many work alongside architects and can get all of the prep work done at once.
