"Working with Francisco and his team was amazing! From start to finish, they made the whole process of remodeling my house so easy and stress-free. Francisco really listened to what I wanted and came up with creative ideas. He was very responsive and always kept me in the loop. The final result is even better than I imagined. My house looks incredible and I’ve gotten so many compliments from friends and family."

"We hire Geico Builders for our kitchen remodeling project, and I'm happy to share my experience: working with Zaya and Geico Builders team was a great decision. They were professional, friendly, and easy to work with. Form the start, the process was smooth and efficient. The craftmanship of my remodel kitchen and attention to detail were exceptional, and the end result far exceeded my expectations. From the design phase top completion, their communication was excellent, and I felt completely at ease with them working in my home. The design solutions completely transformed my kitchen, making it both functional and beautiful. I highly recommend Geico Builders for anyone looking for a stress-free and satisfying remodeling experience."

"Mort is fantastic. Very personable, experienced, and insightful. We ended up going with a different architect for other reasons, but I would certainly trust him to create a fantastic design. Mort met with us and listened closely to our project aspirations and motivation. He was very practical and honest, as well as creative in helping us think through what was possible."

"Our kitchen remodel with McCormick Home Builders went beyond our expectations. Leoni and her team took the time to understand exactly what we wanted. The open layout design changed the way we use the space, and it’s been perfect for family gatherings. They were prompt, courteous, and genuinely invested in making sure we were happy. Really impressed!"

Architects questions, answered by experts

You'll find Arts and Crafts homes across the country in varying styles. On the East Coast, bungalows and Tudor Revivals fill the Boston area through New Jersey. In the West, Mission-style homes incorporate terracotta shingles, white stucco siding, and rounded archways.

Greek Revival and Federal architecture are quite similar in that they focus on symmetry and a blend of utilitarianism and opulence, but they differ in a few key areas. First, Federal architecture tends to include a brick facade, whereas Greek Revival homes more often have stucco siding, much like you’d find in Mediterranean houses. Greek Revival homes also tend to be a bit more ornate, with columns as decor, and more decorative and formal porticos.

Mediterranean architecture comes from traditional building styles of countries on the Mediterranean Sea mixed with French, Greek, and Moroccan influences. There are three main types of Mediterranean architecture: Italian Renaissance, Spanish Revival, and modern.

Some signature components of Mediterranean architecture include red terra cotta roofs, archways, stucco siding, and metal detailing on windows. These homes often have balconies and outdoor living areas.

A construction manager is particularly useful in the case of a large-scale build with custom design elements, so it’s usually worth it to hire one. They can help manage your budget, maintain quality control, oversee timelines, and navigate unexpected hurdles. While construction managers are pricey, they can actually save money in the long run by identifying cost-saving opportunities and ensuring the project stays within budget.

In most cases, you don't need to hire an architect for a garage conversion. Your garage conversion contractor should have the skills and experience to help create your desired design. However, if the scope of the conversion is large and complex, and your budget allows, it's smart to hire an architect to oversee the design.
