After being a general contractor for the past 30 years, building, remodeling, and drawing plans for a variety of architectural styles, I am now focusing on the drafting and design aspect. I always seek to make the most of the space at hand and try to make your needs and wishes a reality, at least on paper. I also try to make the most of any good views, solar gain, and make the structure as cost effective as possible and still be strong and pleasing to the eye. I also help with getting your project through the planning and building departments, if desired and include any needed revisions. Feasibility Studies, to do research and see what will be involved with a project before committing to it, is another service I provide. Earthquake or Seismic Retrofits and Improvements can be done too. I always do my best to give you quality work at a reasonable price.
"Elliot linn was very helpful in getting the design made for my garage conversion into a studio apartment. His experience allowed him to offer sound advice and wise choices in floor planning. He showed up on time for our appointments and delivered the plans in a timely manner. He was conscientious and capable."

The average cost to hire a handyman ranges from about $40 to $140 per hour. Average project cost ranges between $180 and $700, but the cost per hour and per project depends heavily on the type, size, and complexity of the project. The pro’s experience level and your location also factor into how much a handyman charges per hour or per project. You can also expect to pay higher rates or additional fees for emergency services, or around periods of high customer demand, like holidays.
Typically, it’s more affordable to buy an existing home than it is to build a new one. New construction loan interest rates tend to be higher than interest rates for traditional mortgages. Additionally, the cost of materials is likely higher when building a new home than it was when an existing home was built (unless it’s a very new one). You’re also paying for all new appliances, finishes, permits, inspections, and connections for water, gas, and electricity.
One starting point to find a local home builder is to collect suggestions from friends and neighbors. However, it’s still wise to do some more research before you hire a builder. Read reviews to supplement any word-of-mouth recommendations. Check sources like Angi that have standards and criteria in place to screen the pros it lists can also help you find more reputable local home builders.
Knowing if you need an architect for your project can be tricky, especially if you've never worked with one before. In general, small remodeling projects like replacing fixtures typically don't require the expertise of an architect. However, larger projects, like moving walls or adding an addition to your home, should include an architect to ensure the project is structurally sound.

Prices range from $19,200 to $33,600, depending on your location, the garage size, height, materials, and site prep required.

If you need to build a concrete foundation for a new detached garage, you can expect to pay $1,000 to $8,600 for this essential addition.
