"Chuck did a fantastic job, his plans were very detailed and exactly what we talked about. Through the whole process Chuck has only been a text or a call away and has come to the site through out all the construction to check on the progress. Chuck is very easy to work with and we would for sure recommend him."
"We had purchased a backyard design from Yardzen and were looking for a professional landscaper to execute it. Henry and his team did an amazing job. From the time we first connected on Angi, Henry was very responsive. His quote was far more competitive than the one that we received from the landscaper recommended by Yardzen. Henry was considerate of our budget and helped us edit the design so that we could realize our vision within our budget. He was able to get our project scheduled quickly. Henry and his team arrived on their promised start date and got to work. We were so impressed by how much the team got done each day, and by their professionalism. Henry would check in periodically to get our take on various decisions, but otherwise, we didn't have to get involved at all. The work site was always tidy at the end of the day, and even areas that they had used as gravel staging grounds (our back alleyway, for example) was left cleaner than it had been before they started. It was a delight to work with Henry and his team, and I am so glad that we hired them for our project."
"Unique Perspective did an outstanding experience from start to finish. Steve helped bring our vision to life by creating the architectural plans and as-built drawings for our home, and his expertise truly made the entire process seamless. His attention to detail, professionalism, and knowledge were exceptional. He took the time to understand exactly what we wanted and transformed our ideas into beautifully organized, well-designed plans. We were incredibly impressed with his communication, creativity, and ability to make everything feel simple and stress-free. If you are looking for someone talented, reliable, and highly skilled in architectural planning and residential design, I cannot recommend him enough. We will absolutely work again with his company in the future ."
"Michael Byron, Atlas LLC Design and Development Services, Denver, CO 80210, 303-263-2665, is truly a breath of fresh air when dealing with a contractor/service provider. Although I have not known Michael for a long period of time, from the first conversation I knew that I was dealing with an ethical and caring person. Prior to hiring Michael I had spoken to several Architects, and not only did I find them to be curt, bothered, but they were not forthcoming with their ideas, and once I received their bids for my addition/remodeling project, I realized that they were at the very top tier of any professional with their high costs (go ahead check for yourself---staggering). Anyway, back to Atlas LLC., so Michael was very patient, extremely thorough during the entire process making sure that the design was fully thought out in appearance, function, and costs. Michael was also hired to obtain the necessary structural design and drawings from an Engineer that he works with. This is extremely important at a time when the trades are very busy, he kept things on track and coordinated the process. Michael was very good with the communication, and continued to assist with building officials as needed on the road to completion and permit approval. Okay, Michael sounding pretty good right? Now, about me this was not my first go round, I am a successful real estate agent 25+ years in the Denver metro area. I have had dozens of my own projects, and have participated with clients in hundreds. Michael has made a very stressful process---construction in the middle of a move, much more tolerable, and I will gladly refer him to anyone in need of Design Services for their next project or remodel.

"Chris and his team were amazing every step of the way. Starting with the design and planning, the installation, and answering questions after the project was completed their customer care and professionalism was second to none. The work they did looks beautiful and really adds to both the value and the asthetic of our home."
"Steve was great to work with. We had drawings done by an architect we planned to work with who then couldn't meet our budget in the end. We found Steve who took those drawings and made small changes that led to major impacts. Steve helped us build a beautiful ADU. He saw the project through from start to finish. He was often at the jobsite overseeing things. He made sure the project was built correctly and would answer our call every time. He was timely, professional yet personable and extremely knowledgeable. We would highly recommend him and have to our friends who were building."
"I highly recommend Centennial Landscaping. I hired them to build a paver patio and do yard edging. Larry was very prompt with his estimate, and it was a competitive price. He is very easy to communicate with, listens and offers suggestions. And, he followed the project's progress daily. The crew was outstanding. They showed up every day by 8 a.m. and worked until 6 p.m. They were very friendly, professional and respectful of my property. At the end of the project, they did a great job cleaning up. Diego is an expert with pavers. The patio he built is beautiful. From the estimate to the completion of the project I couldn't have been more pleased with this company. If I need any landscaping in the future, I will definitely call Centennial."
"We had a great experience working with Vital Architecture and highly recommend her.
For Little Village Childcare, she helped us save money by confirming certain landlord requests were not required by code and securing a waiver that saved space and costs.
She also reduced civil engineering expenses by preparing the playground drainage plan herself.
During construction, she provided extra support at no cost and helped us handle contractor changes wisely.
For another church childcare project, she identified zoning issues early so everyone understood the risks.
In Colorado Springs, she warned a tenant about higher plumbing costs required by childcare regulations, helping them avoid a bad lease.
For an adult care project, she reviewed the food area and explained new kitchen and ventilation requirements.
Carmen is knowledgeable, thorough, and truly looks out for her clients’ best interests."
"I hired Dave Rite Landscaping to do my back yard and they did a phenomenal job. Dave the contractor was there all the time the project was being done. I would recommend Dave Rite to anyone and anybody I know. Very great company and workers."
"Rich was very engaged with the project, but also listened intently to my vision for the work. He provided recommendations when I asked and kept the project on schedule and budget. I would choose Rich and his team for another project and recommend him to others looking for a variety of landscaping improvements."

As with most large-scale home renovation projects, you’ll need an architect to map out the exact layout and specs of your above-garage room, which is required in many municipalities. Some general contractors will serve as your architect, or they may bring on a residential architect to assist with the plans.
An architect is usually involved in the process of determining the layout and structural features and requirements of the home itself, taking into account the local codes, climate, and materials needed to make the home structurally sound. Architects may communicate more with contractors and subcontractors throughout the building process. In comparison to architects, interior designers typically focus on the aesthetics of a home interior and possibly exterior, helping the homeowner decide on color schemes, textures, and materials to incorporate into the design.
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.
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.
