Customers say: True professional

"We've never done a remodel before. We live in a high-rise and needed to update our kitchen, put in some pocket doors, and a laundry closet. We thought we needed an architect to give us ideas and the structural parameters within which we needed to work. We bought the Big Deal for an architectural consult. Mr. Madeiros was very professional and offered us a few ideas. He is relatively new to the Denver area and wasn't sure if we needed permits for the work we wanted to do. He called the city for us, which was helpful. He gave us drawings of what we had described and his added idea. It ended up that we didn't need his services as we discovered that general contractor could do what we needed. We had the building and unit floor plans and lots of our own ideas, having done a lot of research. I think if you were going to create something out of nothing, his services would be more helpful.

"Marc is an incredible architect and was instrumental in getting our project back on track with the City of Denver. He was always available to answer our questions, brainstorm ideas, helped us navigate Denver building code, and provided some very strong guidance about the building and permitting process. He delivered our project/plans on time and on budget, including a super quick review and approval process with the city. Highly, highly recommend!"

"I hired David for two reasons. I am one the person who taught him for many years, who happens to be a reputable Denver landscape company, but also because a crew I hired to do my outdoor area in my backyard stopped work and disappeared. David completed my kitchen under budget, and with the detail that only a true outdoor Craftsman could do. Highly recommend!"

"We got many quotes and had many meetings with companies and Sigi was by far the most professional, knowledgeable and affordable. He had worked for our builder's warranty division so knew the permits to get and HOA requirements. We were amazed by the communication throughout the process and so impressed with how our backyard turned out. We absolutely love it! Sigi came back a couple of times after the backyard was complete to check on the irrigation system and sod to assure all was working properly and growing. We highly recommend Sigi/MG Landscaping!"

"Designed a complete remodel of the back porch enclosure on my house. Easy to work with. He came and checked it out before I had a survey done(didn’t know i needed one). Survey was scheduled out 3 weeks so he offered to come take measurements for a fee and then he could get started. I accepted and a week or so later we had our plan. When the survey was completed the updated Schematic hardly changed. Wonderful job."

Architects questions, answered by experts

Consulting the architect of your house is not the best way to determine when it was built. Many homes are built by developers or builders, so there may not be a specific architect to track down—especially if you have a very old house. Instead, it’s best to rely on local government records.

Yes, you can finance cottage construction through several options. Construction loans provide funds in stages as work progresses, while home equity loans or lines of credit are available if you have existing property. Some lenders offer a combined construction and permanent mortgage. Always review loan terms and payment milestones before committing.

Typically, architects do not build homes in a hands-on sense of doing the actual framing, roofing, or other building. Architects usually do not have the training and experience to build the homes they design. An architect would need to know how to do the specific trades required to build a house, which is possible but not a common practice. A general contractor or homebuilder typically oversees the actual details of building the house that the architect designs.

The essential difference between an architect and an engineer is that architects typically focus more on the aesthetic design of buildings, although not without consideration for the structural integrity of the building. Engineers focus more on the structural, technical, and practical aspects of whether and how an architectural design can be built as drawn. You may need to hire both types of professionals if you’re designing and building a new home.

Cathedral ceilings make a statement in your home, but at the cost of your attic space. Normal attics are wide open, which allows warm air to move around and exit your home. Because of this, cathedral ceilings make your home less energy efficient and put your ceiling at risk of venting issues if you’re not careful. They also reduce your attic storage space, potentially cause an echo, and even make it harder to change a light bulb.
