"Mario was very professional and worked within our budget. He and his crew went above and beyond and did a great job! We love our retaining walls! He even took the extra mulch and used it to mulch around the house where needed. We will definitely use him again."

"Kian Architecture and Brian have been an absolute godsend! We were in desperate need of an architect for a project most would find daunting, but it was proven to be no match for Brian. He was quick to respond from the beginning and extremely communicative all throughout this process. Even the building inspector complemented Brian's promptness in getting this project rolling. Our team has never been through something like this before and Brian made sure to take the time to explain the codes, processes, timelines, etc. which will make things so much easier when we need their services again. That's right, Kian will be our go to for any architectural needs. Can't recommend them enough!"

"Travis is the only guy who I’ll call. He knows exactly what he is doing; I originally was introduced to him to take care of a complicated retaining wall that was falling apart due to drainage issues. He is kind, thoughtful, very skillful, and really takes serious pride in his work and craftsmanship. Absolutely recommended."

"Jason took our stairs to the basement that were a tiny spiral mid evil type stair case and made them so amazing. He also took out 7 layers of flooring in our kitchen and laid new real wood to match our current wood floor. He also drove out of his way to pick up our new granite. He came back a couple years later and redid our entire front porch and did some electrical and other odd and end jobs. He is an honest man and Works very hard."

Architects questions, answered by experts

A construction manager is particularly useful in the case of a large-scale build with custom design elements, so it’s usually worth it to hire one. They can help manage your budget, maintain quality control, oversee timelines, and navigate unexpected hurdles. While construction managers are pricey, they can actually save money in the long run by identifying cost-saving opportunities and ensuring the project stays within budget.

You have three options in terms of professionals who can draw up blueprints: a draftsperson, an architect, or a structural engineer. A draftsperson can sometimes draw up plans for new construction, but they more often work from approved plans for alterations or to provide 3D drawings. Architects are usually the best option for standard residential construction projects. Structural engineers might be necessary for custom home builds or for alterations that could affect your home’s structural integrity. Draftsmen cost the least of the three, followed by architects and then structural engineers.

With proper training and experience, reading blueprints is fairly straightforward and not very difficult. If you don’t have the necessary knowledge to interpret the symbols, abbreviations, and other notations used, blueprints may not make sense. Learning to read blueprints can help you understand the construction process and keep you more involved and informed when you’re building a house.

On average, the cost to hire an architect is between $2,200 and $10,500. Hourly rates for professional architects range from $45 to $250 per hour, depending on the architect’s experience level and location.

The cost for architect services vary depending on several factors, including:

  • Location

  • Project type

  • Experience level of the architect

  • Local demand for the architect’s services

  • Overall cost of the project

Blueprints are generally available for houses built after the early 1900s. Before then, detailed building schematics like blueprints were rarely used and even more rarely saved. If you have an older house and need blueprints, you can have a new set drawn up by an architect or draftsperson.
