PICO LLC is a general contractor in the Wichita, KS area. We specialize in new home construction and residential and commercial remodeling. We are a family-owned and operated company that goes back 4 generations of business owners. We pride ourselves on making homeowners and business owners happy from start to finish of each job.

"Unethical, poor quality and always lying. Our huge project turned into a lawsuit from PICO because he wouldn’t finish the job or fix major errors but yet demanded full payment! Wes is a contentious, undermining scumbag. His subs are poor quality that he says “meets industry standard” while providing little oversight. His electricians left a 30amp live wire in our crawlspace that was potentially fatal, left us with a 80’ long driveway that started crumbling within weeks, didn’t finish punch list items, AND sent dozens of change orders after the work was complete without ever discussing. He has a history of liens and his last company went bankrupt. Look up Three Sons Construction… DO NOT HIRE"

Architects questions, answered by experts

Structural engineers draw structural plans, which include detailed drawings of the structural components of a home only. Complete house plans will require additional work from an architect or draftsperson, whose drawings will take the structural drawings into account. They’ll also include more details about the finishing materials and layout of a home, including everything from roofing and flooring materials to the position of furniture, light fixtures, switches, and plumbing fixtures.

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.

Federal architecture is most common in urban areas throughout the New England states, including the older parts of New York, Pennsylvania (namely, Boston and Philadelphia), Maryland, Massachusetts, and Virginia. The style also dominated in parts of Georgia in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, so many historical homes in the area embody this home design. Salem, MA, has two historic districts that predominantly feature this architectural style: Chestnut Street District and the Salem Maritime National Historic Site.

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. 

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.
