"Bill Fisher provided outstanding services in a somewhat difficult situation as our house was severely damaged by a giant tree fall and had to be rebuilt almost entirely. Bill and his team's were invaluable in helping us redesign the house, handle some of the insurance paperwork, provide the necessary documentation to adjust the claim, deal with the Santa Cruz county administration, connect us with our general contractor ... It was a real pleasure working with Bill and I would highly recommend him to anybody for any project."

Architects questions, answered by experts

Designs typically take 2-6 months, depending on factoring, project size, and customization needs. Larger or more complex designs may require additional time for approval and revisions.

Building a house without blueprints is not advised. It will prevent you from obtaining necessary building permits and meeting building codes and is likely to result in shoddy construction and unsafe living conditions. Detailed blueprints ensure that a house is built to exact specifications and is constructed safely and structurally stable.

The primary reason homes have crawl spaces is so the foundation can reach down below the frost line to avoid dangerous soil movement and structural damage when the ground freezes. They’re more popular in colder climates where the ground freezes down to a few feet, and slabs are most popular in warmer areas where there is no frost line. Crawl spaces also provide a space for utility lines to run where they’re at less of a risk of freezing.

Federal and Colonial architecture are similar in that they both appear mostly utilitarian and symmetrical, but Federal architecture is a bit more ornate. Federal design often includes decorative palladium windows, window lintels, and, sometimes, columns surrounding a more decorative portico. Inside, Federal architecture is set apart by its centrally-located oval room. Additionally, Federal homes tend to have brick facades, whereas Colonial homes more often have wood siding.

Architects often oversee project management to ensure design adherence, coordinate with contractors, and address onsite challenges.
