"MJ Quality Builders does new houses as well as remodeling. They are currently doing work in Pebble Beach on a house I represent. Their work is of the best quality at a reasonable price. Best of all is the short time they take to complete a project. Their design ideas and input are invaluable. I highly recommended them. I will certainly use them again."

"The guy was great. I had several of the contractor who took a look at the job. They said the deck had to be replaced. the other contractors did not diagnose the rot at the foot of the house. When Gilbert took it apart. it was completely rotted. Which other contractors would have discovered once they began the work. Gilbert repaired the deck instead of replacing it. only Gilbert diagnosed the rotted footer in the house in advance. Gilbert will be replacing my roof this fall. Out of all the contractors, Gilbert's price was less than 1/3 of the offer of other because they wanted to replace the deck and it did include repair to the house."

"I’ve hired Bulls Legacy Builders twice now for work in two separate properties that I own and I’m compelled to leave a review because I am blown away with the work Dario performed in both properties. In one property I hired Bulls Legacy Builders to do a remodel of the kitchen and bathroom since both were extremely outdated. I explained to Dario that I was looking for a more modern look for both the kitchen and bathroom and he offered many suggestions on what is popular and what most people are wanting. In addition to his suggestions for designs, he also offered some suggestions to maximize the counter and cabinet space in my kitchen since my kitchen is small and doesn’t have much room. Dario did an amazing job with both remodels and left me with a beautiful kitchen and bathroom. It’s clear that he has great experience and knowledge in remodeling. In my other property I needed some electrical work done since there was a lack of outlets and some outlets just didn’t have electricity at all. Dario came in and was able to figure out the issues with the faulty outlets and was able to fix them up. He also found creative ways to set up more outlets in the house and offered suggestions of where the outlets could be placed to be the most beneficial. In addition to his excellent work, he gets the work done quickly, efficiently, and offers fair rates for his work. I will not hesitate to hire Bulls Legacy Builders again in the future for any upcoming projects I have!"

Architects questions, answered by experts

Depending on project scope, complexity, and building size, architectural services for businesses typically cost between $2,000 and $50,000. Fees can be structured as hourly rates, fixed pricing, or a percentage of total construction costs.

You have three options in terms of professionals who can draw up blueprints: a draftsperson, an architect, or a structural engineer. A draftsperson can sometimes draw up plans for new construction, but they more often work from approved plans for alterations or to provide 3D drawings. Architects are usually the best option for standard residential construction projects. Structural engineers might be necessary for custom home builds or for alterations that could affect your home’s structural integrity. Draftsmen cost the least of the three, followed by architects and then structural engineers.

When conducting space planning, building codes and regulations need to be considered. As long as you are taking them into account and discussing them with the architect, you should be able to do your space planning appropriately.

Aging-in-place universal design features can make your home more comfortable for family members who are older or have disabilities; they can also make your home safer. In addition, adding a universal-design bathroom can boost your home’s overall resale value.

Federal architecture is most common in urban areas throughout the New England states, including the older parts of New York, Pennsylvania (namely, Boston and Philadelphia), Maryland, Massachusetts, and Virginia. The style also dominated in parts of Georgia in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, so many historical homes in the area embody this home design. Salem, MA, has two historic districts that predominantly feature this architectural style: Chestnut Street District and the Salem Maritime National Historic Site.
