"The work completed was of the highest quality. Danny, the owner of DM Building, is a fair and honest business owner, and very responsive. He has a very skilled group of people and they did a great job from start to finish. Our foreman, Scott, who treated the project like it was his own home, provided excellent guidance and help throughout the remodel. The attention to detail was impressive and suggestions were made along the way which made the house even better. Most of the workers are employees which helps in scheduling work. We did work with some contractors recommended and managed by DM Building for kitchen and laundry cabinets, as well as tiling and flooring--and they were professional and did excellent work. In my case, I had never done a remodel and my husband was the main contact in initiating the work. Unfortunately, he died when we were in the middle of the rebuild. Danny, Scott and his crew were very supportive and helped me through the remodel, over and above my expectations, accommodating additional changes and working with me to get everything completed. The house is beautiful."

"I had the pleasure of working with Leslie Andersen on two separate projects: an ADU and a Guest House. I can't speak highly enough about the exceptional experience we had from start to finish. First and foremost, her quick response time was truly impressive. Every query was met with prompt, detailed answers, which made the entire process smooth and stress-free. It was clear that Leslie values their clients' time and prioritizes effective communication. As for the projects themselves, the results exceeded my expectations. The ADU design is both functional and aesthetically pleasing, blending seamlessly with the existing structures while adding a fresh touch. The guest house is equally crafted with attention to detail and a clear understanding of our needs and preferences. The professionalism, creativity, and efficiency displayed throughout were remarkable. I highly recommend Leslie to anyone seeking a top-notch architecture. Her commitment to excellence and client satisfaction truly sets her apart. Thank you for making our vision a reality!"

"Hired Pacific Sands after we lost our home in the Eaton Fires in Altadena. We were very happy with their team and the designs they finished for us. Their permitting team was amazing too, so happy they were able to help with that part of the process. too."

Architects questions, answered by experts

An architect ensures compliance with building codes, maximizes space efficiency, enhances functionality, and integrates energy-efficient solutions. Their expertise can also improve workflow and customer experience.

Balancing aesthetics with functionality amidst space planning is important. To do so, you could consider consulting both an interior designer and an architect to fulfill both these needs. Or you can tackle it on your own by prioritizing personal touches amidst space planning that add to the look but don't take away from the livability of the space.

In most cases, you should get an architect before you hire a builder. An architect will be the one to draw up formal plans for your project, including guidelines and even material lists for your builder to follow during construction. Many architects can even help you find builders, choose one for your project, and negotiate prices. Some are also willing to act as project managers throughout the process, working closely with a builder from start to finish.

Your state’s architect licensing registry is an excellent place to begin when finding an architect. The state must license architects after completing the required education and with a minimum amount of experience. You can also ask other homeowners with similar projects who they used and their experience.

While possible for small projects, professional designers ensure compliance with building codes and structural integrity.
