"Very honest engineer. He performed a mandatory seismic inspection that was required for the city of Hayward. There was no foundation issue whatsoever. Before Mr Padir did the inspection I had a retrofit company look at my building and they told me it would cost $58k to fix the problem and I almost fell for it. It turns out that one joist was rotten from a sewer leak that was repaired. It is hard to find honest people these days. I am so glad it is only a cosmetic fix and a sister joist installed next to it to relieve the pressure on the building. Thank you once again Mr. Padir. Excellent job and quick turnaround."

"It was fantastic! They came a month prior and gave an estimate, were right on target and didn't charge for anything else. They showed up on time and got right to work. They were just the nicest bunch of people. They did such a nice job, the front of the house looks so natural now. I can't say enough good things about them and we will definitely be calling them again for anything we need."

"Working with David was seamless. He did what he said he was going to do, was on time with his work and the work was exceptional. He needed to work with an engineer to get certain specialized part of my garage to pass with the city but i got approved from the City of Sacramento for my garage rebuild on the first try ! ! I will be working with David in the future and highly recommend him."

"Gary Tracht and his crew, Candido Marin and Abelardo Portillo, spent much of the last 16 months on a massive renovation of my two-unit home on Vesta Street in San Francisco. We initially hoped the task was limited to a termite problem in a front bedroom on the second of three stories on our home so got a simple, over-the-counter permit for repairs. But the termites had gone through the siding down into the front and south sides of the house and into two bedrooms on the ground level. Worse, Covid restrictions came into place and the City tried to shut down our renovations as "non-essential." All this with a mean rain season the first year and leaks to contain. Gary, Candido, and Abelardo had to carve off the whole front off the home and the whole south side to repair the damage, and they found a weak foundation on the front half of this historic two-unit building, which had to be re-poured and placed. Gary enlisted Kevin O'Connor, Inc to do engineering plans and pull additional permits as the City evolved into a new nightmare, on-line permitting process, which Kevin learned and navigated like the pro engineer he is. The building was carved out down to the dirt, a foundation poured, and four bedrooms re-framed, hardwood floors lovingly installed, custom stucco on the front and Hardiplank siding on the south wall, stair replacement, etc. They are very good with drywall and base molding replacements. The finish on those walls is smooth and perfect. Your eyes are happy to travel over the new paint, onto the base moldings and around closets and windows trims. A renovation at this scale is complex, and included electrical permit/inspection etc. Colm at Graham Plastering was the contractor (whom my family has used three times) placing tinted stucco on the face of the building that resembles marble! We got final on time for the whole job this month. Also, this job was cost effective and so was Kevin O'Conner, Inc (whom I have put onto additional, well performed work as I am an insurance adjuster)."

Architects questions, answered by experts

Above all, the downside to building a new house is a longer timeline. You need several months to finish the build, depending on the supply chain and labor availability in the meantime. Building a home compared to buying one is also more expensive, both in the building process and when it comes to mortgage rates and property taxes.

The most idyllic building material that encapsulates the feel of Federal architecture is a brick facade, often with bricks alternating between long side and short side. Palladium and arched transom windows are also prevalent, as are flat, white window lintels. More ornate Federal architecture buildings also include columns on either side of the front door. More important than most of the finer details, though, is the symmetry from the exterior. On the interior, ornate plaster moldings and plaster ceiling medallions are indicative of the style.

Costs depend on project complexity, software requirements, and the draftsperson’s experience.

While towers and turrets are frequently present in Queen Anne-style houses, these design elements are not necessary for a home to be considered a Queen Anne. Turrets and towers add visual interest and unique interior spaces, but many Queen Anne homes do not contain these features. 

Typically, architects do not build homes in a hands-on sense of doing the actual framing, roofing, or other building. Architects usually do not have the training and experience to build the homes they design. An architect would need to know how to do the specific trades required to build a house, which is possible but not a common practice. A general contractor or homebuilder typically oversees the actual details of building the house that the architect designs.
