"Just had to drop a review for Result Construction after they wrapped up our kitchen extension. Honestly, I was dreading the disruption, but their team was so considerate and tidy. Every evening, the site was cleaned up, and they kept us updated with progress. The final reveal? My jaw dropped. It’s not just a kitchen; it’s the heart of our home now. Sacramento friends, if you’re thinking renovations, these are your go-to guys."

"They started off great, fast and professional. We had them create blue print plans from my design. I had to pay their full bill before they released final plans which was fine of course. However, my contractor and I ran into a problem on part of their design and engineering and that's when the service went to crap. The contractor and I have been trying to resolve the issue for more than two weeks little success, in fact just the runaround. The Engineer tells us he needs to talk to the architect; the architect says he'll talk to the engineer and nothing happens. That's gone on for two whole weeks. My project is a dead standstill for two weeks which is not acceptable. That's also screwed up the schedules of the contractor and their sub-contractors Therefore what would a bit of five star rating for these guys turned into a 1 to 2. I was very happy with the beginning of the process but once you pay them you can forget about any additional service if you have questions. On the plus side, they seem like nice people to work with, the plans were put together well, and their prices seemed reasonable. As noted above, their follow up service is completely lacking. I would gladly paid another designer more to get complete service that didn't leave me hanging for weeks on end. Today starts week 3 with no resolution."

He is very honest and up to date with the various building codes from all of the surrounding counties. Even the county I am working in commented how detailed and beautiful he designed my project. By the way it was approved immediately. The first time it was submitted!"

Richard A. Keding Architect
New to Angi

Serving Pollock Pines, CA and surrounding areas

In business since 1981

Accepted as an apprentice by Frank Lloyd Wright in 1957, Richard Keding served an extended internship in Wisconsin and Arizona which subsequently developed into a staff position with Taliesin Architects, the successor firm to Frank Lloyd Wright�s office. Later establishing his own firm in California, he has concentrated in the design of distinctive personal residences.\n\nKeding believes that a home must nurture the spirit of those who live there, and consciously draws upon certain architectural design standards and values that support the human experience. His work does not simply rely upon historical precedents. Each individual house is the result of a creative approach to residential design that is appropriate to our time and culture, to the specific site and to the needs of its inhabitants. \n\nEach design must balance a variety of competing demands: spaciousness vs costs, openness vs privacy, ease of construction vs structural integrity, and other similar challenges.\n\nAs a result of successfully resolving these demands, Keding�s designs uniquely fulfill their owners� desires while maintaining quiet consonance with their natural surroundings. An atmosphere of sophisticated repose suffuses these homes. Fine materials and refined detailing complete an environment singularly sympathetic to the lives sheltered in the building.\n\nEvery project is personally designed by Richard Keding who also carefully reviews all work under construction. He is usually assisted in the preparation of construction drawings and specifications by other architects as needed. Ancillary services such as structural engineering, surveys, cost estimates, energy regulation compliance reports, landscaping design, lighting design, and geotechnical investigations are customarily secured from prequalified consultants. \n\nDigital technology in combination with a network of professional associates enables the firm to serve clients regardless of geographical location. Richard Keding is a registered architect in the state of California, and in 1984 was granted certification by the National Council of Architectural Registration Boards.\n\nTo review recent work of the firm, please click on the link to MY WEBSITE above.

FAQs for architectural service projects in Pollock Pines, CA

While you might think that architects only draw blueprints for buildings, they are much more involved in the overall construction process than you might realize. While they aren’t the ones swinging the hammers, architects do the following: 

  • Communicate with the homeowner on the project request, including assistance when exact plans aren’t known

  • Develop computer-aided models and blueprints of the requested design

  • Ensure that the design incorporates form, function, and safety features

  • Provide the contractor with the agreed-upon design

  • Supervise the general contractor and any subcontractors throughout the project

  • Communicate any needed changes to the project with the homeowner and draw new plans accordingly

Before settling on and hiring an architect, it’s beneficial to you as a homeowner to ask some questions to familiarize yourself with their work. After all, you wouldn’t want to spend time and resources on a professional that doesn’t specialize in exactly what you want in a house. Some questions to ask your architect include: 

  • How do you charge for services? Is it on an hourly basis, based on square footage, or based on project size?

  • How do we work together to stay on budget for this project?

  • Do you anticipate any future challenges with this project? How are these communicated?

  • What is your project management style? If you are not handling the day-to-day details, who is my point of contact? 

  • Can I see previous similar projects that you’ve completed?

  • Do you have any specialty experience, like working on historic homes or using sustainable building materials?

The average cost to hire an architect for your home project ranges between $2,200 and $10,500. However, depending on location and project type, you might end up paying as little as $600 or as much as $45,000 or more. For example, the average cost of hiring an architect in North Carolina is between $1,800 and $2,000, but in California, that price tag jumps to $3,600 to $15,200

The price you pay for your architect also depends on their experience level. For example, a principal architect, the firm's owner, typically charges $150 to $250 per hour. However, an intern architect with three to five years of experience usually only charges $45 per hour. 

After you’ve spoken with your contractor and agreed on a project, they’ll draw up blueprints, or plans, that the construction crew will use. The blueprint process can take between four and six months to complete. While this can seem like a long time, remember that the architect must communicate with your municipality to determine codes, communicate with you as the homeowner with any changes or adjustments, and coordinate with the construction crew. 

If you simply remodel your home or add an addition, the time to draw up the plans will be shorter since fewer permits and surveys are required. Even still, it’s best to plan for a few months for the architect to complete this part of the project.

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.
