"This father-son team demonstrated exemplary professionalism and attention to detail while completing the sheetrock installation in my bathroom. They proactively protected the workspace by laying down paper on the floors, ensuring cleanliness throughout the project. The pricing was competitive and reflected the superior quality of their workmanship. Great job!"

"Patrick & his team are fantastic to work with! They installed a fence for our backyard, removed a large garden bed, extended our stone paver patio, installed fresh sod, and removed a large tree near our home. Truly a one stop shop that does an incredible job! Will call Patrick and his team back whenever we need more landscaping done on our home! Highly recommend!"

"I hired WOLFDENS in order to redesign my kitchen, living room and bedroom. Kat was wonderful to work with! She was always ready to listen to my concerns and make changes in the designs in order to give me exactly what I wanted. Kat traveled with me to the different stores to ensure the furniture selected would match what I wanted. Everything was then put into computer images so I could see what my rooms would look like. I could see what I was getting without any construction or purchases. Seeing the pictures saved me a few times from making decisions that would have not turned out well. I'm completely happy with the outcomes and I hired WOLFDENS to design the interior and exterior of my new home on Lake Lanier."

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.

In most cases, you should hire a draftsperson for simpler projects like minor home renovations, and you should hire an architect for new construction, structural changes to your home, and large home add-ons. If you’re working on a larger project that demands an architect or structural engineer, your professional will often have a draftsperson on staff and include their services in your estimate.

In most cases, yes, hiring a draftsperson will be more affordable than the cost of hiring an architect. However, it’s important to note that the reason is because these professionals provide different services. Draftspersons are more affordable because they do more general mock-ups that help align your contractors with your vision for your home renovation project. An architect will provide more detailed drawings that include technical specifications, structural considerations, and even mechanical components, like electrical box and HVAC ductwork placement.

You likely need to hire an architect for your new house design and build, unless you have the design skills and experience with building regulations and standards needed to get your plans approved. If you are able to meet the design requirements, you can hire a draftsperson to create the blueprints for the builders to follow.

The most common scale for residential blueprints is 1/4 of an inch equals one foot. This scale is the most popular because it’s easier for everyone involved, from professionals to homeowners, to understand the building’s actual dimensions. Also, it allows blueprints to have the necessary details without cluttering the page.
