"BUYER BEWARE! You will have to PM your own project. Ask for a change order for everything you request. If I could go back in time I would have paid more for the piece of mind. A 6 month remodel took exactly 1 year to complete. Punchlist items took 7 months to complete. Magno broke his own contract by not getting a building permit for the remodel. He filed the plans but never paid the $ to get them until I demanded the permit. I received one at the end of the punchlist so 1 year later. I had to spend time calling City of Lex. He has $ issues with vendors. We witnessed 2 vendors pulling out during our remodel for non payment. If I could go back in time I would not have tried to choose a minority run business and just stuck with the best price and reviews. He had no reviews when I started looking for a contractor. His attention to detail is non existence. See pics for reference. The pic of the smoke detector. His was too lazy to remove the one w/electrical so he just placed the other one beside it. He admits he has no attention to detail. I have had the grout lines fixed in bathroom pics from another contractor. Pay more with someone else. It will be worth it."

Customers say: Super punctual

WE WILL BEAT ALL COMPETITORS PRICING. We are a Residential and Commercial Drafting Service. We design blueprints for new home builds or existing home renovation projects, room additions, finishing basements and more. We can design blueprints for residential or commercial projects such as new home builds, apartment complex, office buildings and existing home projects and more.

"Dan appeared to be easy to work with when I hired him to create a home blueprint for my retirement home. I can't read blueprints but the floor plan looked like what I wanted. I accepted the blueprints thinking it was exactly what I wanted. The builder estimate was about $70,000 higher than what I expected. After discussing it with the builder, I realized the draftsman had inserted his own personal ideas into the blueprint. I had stressed the need to build a very simple, modest home. I contacted Dan and he stated he added his choices if he had no choice from me. He said he would make changes but would charge me $240. After disagreeing with the charge, he replied saying he dropped me as a client and would not be finishing the blueprint so I am stuck with an $1800 set of useless blueprints."

Architects questions, answered by experts

When you think about Arts and Crafts-style homes, you probably think of a Craftsman house or a bungalow-style Craftsman. Craftsman is one of the major styles developed during the Arts and Crafts movement, but it checks most boxes. Craftsman houses have low-pitched roofs, exposed rafters, open floor plans, and stunning wood finish.

The various types of architects can be broken down into eight distinct categories, but there can be specific specialties within each of them. Most homeowners will work with a residential, restoration, green, interior, landscape, or retrofit architect for projects. There are also lighting and commercial architects whose work is geared more toward large spaces and businesses.

Start by researching local contractors with experience in cottage construction. Ask for references, check licensing and insurance, and review completed projects. Compare multiple bids, making sure each includes the same scope of work. A good contractor will communicate clearly, provide a detailed contract, and ensure all work meets code and safety standards.

Cathedral ceilings make a statement in your home, but at the cost of your attic space. Normal attics are wide open, which allows warm air to move around and exit your home. Because of this, cathedral ceilings make your home less energy efficient and put your ceiling at risk of venting issues if you’re not careful. They also reduce your attic storage space, potentially cause an echo, and even make it harder to change a light bulb.

The best height for a pizza oven is one that allows the user to easily see what’s going on inside and comfortably place pies without having to crouch over. In general, that means the opening should be between 36 and 48 inches off the ground. By contrast, the height of the dome is totally up to your preference, because different heights create different results. Shorter domes are better for creating Neapolitan-style pies, whereas taller domes are ideal for NY-style recipes.
