"Kristen was a pleasure to work with. She takes the time to understand her client needs, is creative, and easy to work with. Additionally, she understands the entire permitting process in both the city and suburbs and made that process so easy. My son is currently working with her on a basement remodel. We will definitely work with her again."

Flint Architects, LLC, pride our selves in exceeding customers and client�s expectations. We take the time to really listen and understand the desires of our customers and clients to make sure the customer is fully satisfied with the job. A job well done!

"Steve was hired for my office expansion. I have a family friend who, as a general contractor, performed the job of the expansion. I was quoted and paid for a buildout according to my budget. I paid Steve invoices accordingly to the budget and agreed upon price between my contractor and me. Months after the buildout was completed, Steve contacted me stating he talked to other contractors and the job was estimated to be $40,000 over what we agreed upon. I emailed him back stating that was not what I paid for the buildout, despite his other estimates. What kind of a business model is this? As a professional, I know others in my profession have higher rates, etc. I do not send bills to previous clients extorting more money because someone down the street charges more! Not to mention, his harassment started during the COVID-19 pandemic. Maybe he is financially hurting, as all are, but that is no excuse. He relentlessly emailed me the first week of every month asking for my payment for my past due invoice. My general contractor talked to him also, on my behalf, but the emails do not stop. He is basically harassing me for additional money at this point. I am sharing this, as I do not want anyone else to get into his situation. Steve is ethically and morally unsound. Please beware."

We strive to exceed expectations while at the same time, build long-lasting relationships with our customers. Through our attention to detail, quality craftsmanship, dedication and cost-effective project completion, HDC ... 'Takes the Frustration Out Of Residential and Commercial Remodeling and Construction.' We are a family run business with numerous employees and subcontractors.

"We recently hired Hogan Design and Construction to remodel our kitchen and laundry room, and we couldn’t be happier with the results! From start to finish, the team was professional, reliable, and a pleasure to work with. Our designer, Kasia, took the time to listen to our ideas, offered thoughtful suggestions, and kept us updated throughout the design process. We trusted her guidance, and the results are spectacular. The craftsmanship is exceptional—every detail was handled with care, and the finished spaces are both beautiful and functional. Hogan sourced the cabinets, countertops, lighting, and flooring, all of which are high-quality and perfectly suited to our home. A special thanks goes to Doug, our project manager, who kept everything on schedule, respected our home, and went above and beyond to ensure everything was completed to perfection. It’s rare to find a contractor who combines great communication, skill, and genuine pride in their work, but Doug, Kasia, and the entire Hogan team (including their subcontractors) delivered all of that and more. We absolutely love our new kitchen and laundry room and would recommend Hogan without hesitation to anyone considering a remodel."

"Great! This review is long overdue. Marc was fair with his price and very meticulous with plans. We hired him after many interviews with other architects in 2014. Always was available as building was in process to address problems that arose with our builders. He also solved the problem of our garage flooding when we had a hard rain. Think of him often because he saved us tons of money and headaches! He went above and beyond the call of duty."

"It has taken me a long time to write a review because the experience with the owner of this company was very unpleasant. The owner spent most of a day at our house installing two new replacement interior slab doors. He damaged both doors during installation, and also put the doorknob to our bathroom door on backwards. The owner seemed very frustrated as he worked. Later, when I mentioned a burn mark that was sustained during installation, the owner became extremely angry to the point that I felt uncomfortable with him in my home. We didn't bother mentioning damage sustained to the other door, nor did we bother to mention or ask him to properly reinstall the doorknob on our bathroom door that he'd installed backwards. Note that this job was fully discussed before this owner accepted it. However, I think he may have regretted advertising a coupon discount. The owner appears to have anger management issues so, in light of the quality of his work and his behavior, I cannot recommend him."

I would recommend them to anyone looking for a roofer or siding company."

Architects questions, answered by experts

Some homes, like those with flat roofs, may not have eaves at all. Some contemporary-style homes also lack eaves, although many may have abbreviated eaves to divert water and protect the walls and foundation. Homes without eaves often have specific types of gutters affixed directly to the edge of the roof to provide adequate drainage.

While Craftsman-style houses are bungalows, cottages typically aren’t, though they can be. But they also differ in other stylistic aspects. For instance, cottages usually have simpler designs and painted woodwork.

While you will always work with a team of professionals at some point during your home build, homeowners with experience can take on some part of the process. Manage the initial brainstorm, brief writeup, and floor layout phase with minimal assistance before contacting a general contractor. And while you can purchase stock blueprints for some home designs, it's always best to speak with professionals when choosing one ideal for your property.

Fees depend on project size, design complexity, required permits, materials, labor, and whether additional consulting services are included.

You should have an architect involved in your project from the very beginning. They’ll be able to direct your vision into workable plans, and they can advise you on potential problems right from the start. You may be able to save money by not using an architect, but larger projects will go much more smoothly with an experienced pro directing the process.
