"My wife and I worked with Jon on an extensive renovation/remodel, and addition. A large, complicated project to say the least. Jon stuck with us through many, many, revisions... The entire time being patient and professional. Jon's expertise and knowledge in structure and engineering helped save the day when we had a large issue during construction. While I was completely panicking, Jon came to the house, calmed and reassured us, and presented real time fixes and solutions. I thank you Jon, for answering every text, phone call, and email (We have not been easy on him). I highly recommend this expert architect and wouldn't hesitate in using him in the future. Thank you so much Schultz Architecture. Sincerely, Joel and Melissa Hurst"

"Performed the requested work in a timely and professional manner. Found an unforeseen problem and adjusted quickly. Did not leave until the job was done to customer satisfaction and tested for proper functionality. Only issue was difficulty in scheduling. Other than that - great group of workers."

"Excellent design and super sturdy. The inspector was very impressed. John thoroughly listened to what I wanted and suggested a composite instead of wood and am so glad he did. It was initially more expensive but no expense to maintain! Took longer than expected but if you're not in a hurry John will do it right."

"I run a commercial building, and it was empty when I bought it. They helped me design and build four offices within the property. Very knowledable of codes, which helped the project run smoothely. I would certainly recommend him based on my experience. I also used him in 2007 for some major remodeling on a forclosed home that my daughter bought. He did a fantastic job then, and I was thankful he was still doing business around here when this job came up, because he was the first person I thought of."

Architects questions, answered by experts

Federal and Colonial architecture are similar in that they both appear mostly utilitarian and symmetrical, but Federal architecture is a bit more ornate. Federal design often includes decorative palladium windows, window lintels, and, sometimes, columns surrounding a more decorative portico. Inside, Federal architecture is set apart by its centrally-located oval room. Additionally, Federal homes tend to have brick facades, whereas Colonial homes more often have wood siding.

The architect you choose to work with should have experience with the type of design you’re interested in, a portfolio of similar projects they’ve completed, and a process and work style that aligns with your expectations. A seasoned architect will be able to provide you with all that information so you can ensure they’re a good fit.

Building designers charge between $2,000 and $50,000, depending on project scope, complexity, and customization.

Above all, the downside to building a new house is a longer timeline. You need several months to finish the build, depending on the supply chain and labor availability in the meantime. Building a home compared to buying one is also more expensive, both in the building process and when it comes to mortgage rates and property taxes.

Yes, architects help navigate local zoning laws, acquire necessary permits, and ensure compliance with regulations, reducing delays and costly modifications.
