"Shortly after we purchased our home we set out to find a contractor who could achieve our vision, of a complete kitchen overhaul which included removing an entire wall (to create an open living space) closing another wall & opening a door way plus renovate our laundry room. And new wood floors through out the whole 1st floor of our 2 story home. So no small task... Jacob, the owner met us at our property a couple of days later, he hit where we wanted to be both in budget & timing. Jacob took us every step of the way along with his associates ensuring that we would reach the other side of this unscathed. I must say Jacobs’ teams from demolition, to plumbing, electrical, cabinetry, electrical, painters & flooring were amazing people. They ALL took pride in their work- from their high standards in workmanship, finishing & cleanliness. All top notch. I highly recommend S&L remodeling, a stellar team & great people!"

"I am glad that I hired Bayside Builders to do my home renovation project because the results are impressive! They were real professionals from start to finish and I can tell that they know what they're doing when it comes down to construction and design of any room in your house. Every aspect turned out great and I'm really happy with everything overall, from the layout of all the rooms to the color schemes. I would definitely recommend them as a contractor because they deliver outstanding results without wasting any time for those who are on a limited budget and deadline."

"I had the pleasure of working with Masterful Construction on my deck construction project, and I cannot praise the project manager, Tivo, enough. Tivo's exceptional leadership and communication skills made the entire process smooth and stress-free. From the initial planning stages to the final execution, Tivo was always available to answer my questions and address any concerns. His attention to detail and commitment to delivering a high-quality deck were evident throughout. Thanks to Tivo's expertise and professionalism, my deck turned out even better than I imagined."

"Where do I start? I can't say enough good things about Abraham and the quality of his work. I found Abraham through my realtor. Abraham came in on the heels of unfinished construction work. He basically had to finish up on renovation work on the downstairs. I was putting my house up for sale and so much needed to be done. Not only is he masterful, skilled and precise - his demeanor is above and beyond. Patient, kind, exact. Each and everything he touched came out impeccably. I can never thank him enough for the work he did at my house over a 4 month period of time last year. My house sold because of Abraham's work. After I sold my houise and left town he came over to do a few yard tasks that had to wait until me and my cats had left. Hiring Abraham will be your smartest decision."

"If you’re thinking about getting a new roof, definitely go with Build Atlas. I’m in my mid-20s and had no idea where to even start, but a neighbor recommended them and I’m so glad that they did! The whole team was super friendly, down-to-earth, and made the entire process way less stressful than I imagined. They showed up when they said they would, kept everything clean, and finished faster than I expected. Plus, the roof looks fantastic — it’s like my house got a facelift! It’s rare to find a company that’s this easy to work with!"

Subcontractors questions, answered by experts

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.

British architect John Nash is credited with creating the Italianate style of architecture. The style was further popularized in the U.S. by landscape architect Andrew Jackson Downing and architect Calvert Vaux. The style spread across the U.S. due to Downing’s popular book on the style and the availability of plans and materials due to the mass production of the Industrial Revolution.

The cost to draw house plans typically ranges from $800 to $2,700, with standard blueprints averaging around $1,800. For a custom home, the cost is higher, with blueprints often falling between $5,000 and $20,000, and potentially more for very complex designs. Several factors influence the total price, including the project's size, the number of rooms, the type of drawings required, and the architect's experience level. You may also need to pay a structural engineer to ensure building safety, particularly for custom homes.

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.

Yes, you can draw your own deck plans in many cases. However, you must know your local building codes and be familiar with carpentry principles. Even then, it's always best to run your plans by a professional contractor with experience building decks, whether you choose to DIY some of the build or not.
