"Marc Anderson was incredibly helpful, walking me through the typical process and advising me that I may not need an architect for my specific renovation plans. However, if I do need an architect, he'll be happy to help and I feel assured that I'm dealing with a straight shooter."

Customers say: Super punctual

"I can't say enough about A P Builders and how absolutely wonderful they have been from start to finish. We completely gutted and remodeled our home and Angelo was upfront, honest, timely, and everything that was contracted was done to perfection. We had crew there every day from start to finish. He started on time and finished on time. Any change orders were handled professionally and solutions were found for any unforeseen challenges due to the age of my home. I highly recommend AP Builders for any of your home improvement needs."

"We met with owner/senior architect, Firmin Senga to join us in the viewing of our desired property. We wanted to have an architect on board with us for reassurance that the updates we plan will work before we make an offer. He was very helpful."

"When I contacted R&G Almanza Landscape, they were very professional on the phone. Since it was outside work they sent someone to come look over the property and give me a price for a seasonal snow removal contract. Raul Almanza emailed me promptly with his proposal. Since I had never done this before I wanted to meet him. He was very accommodating with my schedule and we met at my mom's to be sure he understood what I was looking for. Unfortunately this was pretty much a hand-shovel job, Raul assured me that he had a lot of properties like my mom and it would be fine. He explained that if it snowed more that 2" in the night, by 8am it would be cleared and salted. The property also has two parking spaces in the back and included in my proposal was shoveling out the two spots. AND he even said if the tenants cars were parked in the back he would have his men shovel around the cars. I couldn't believe it. Well, the winter snow season was mild between Nov. 2016 and March 2017. R&G Almanza had to come out in early December 2-3 times and the tenants couldn't rave enough about my new snow removal find. Then we had no snow until early March when Chicago got 6-8" of snow. Since I HATE snow I thought hiring R&G was my good luck (ha ha). Well we got dumped on in the beginning of March and I had no worries because R&G handled shoveling to perfection. I highly recommend R&G Almanza Landscape for snow removal services. I would try them for my mom's landscaping needs also but she has had the same company for over 30 years and at 89 she doesn't want to change. I explained that to Raul and he assured me that it was fine. When November 2017 rolls around, I will absolutely sign another contract for snow removal services with R&G Almanza Landscaping."

Architects questions, answered by experts

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.

The primary reason homes have crawl spaces is so the foundation can reach down below the frost line to avoid dangerous soil movement and structural damage when the ground freezes. They’re more popular in colder climates where the ground freezes down to a few feet, and slabs are most popular in warmer areas where there is no frost line. Crawl spaces also provide a space for utility lines to run where they’re at less of a risk of freezing.

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.

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.

The biggest upside to hiring an architect is that they will ensure an efficient building process without errors. They will also ensure your home is free from structural issues and that everything is up to building code. Many permitting agencies require architects to draw construction plans and layouts before working, so hiring an architect will also ensure your project is legal. Additionally, architects help homeowners have a clear idea of their project details before the project starts. Hence, they help unify all parties on a shared vision for the project.
