"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."

"Mike and his assistant arrived on time; spent the entire day installing a first-class system with Rain Bird and Hunter parts. All the pop-up sprinkler heads are mounted on flexible swing joints to prevent breakage. Because of the location of the main water connection to the house, they had to hand dig most of the yard. In spite of that, they did not really disrupt the lawn. Mike has warranted the system for one year for any manufacturer defects or improper installation problems. In spite of having spent almost 8 hours on the job, he was very patient, showing us how the timer and system works. We were very pleased to have chosen Dreamscapes."

Architects questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

In the United States, architects must be licensed in all 50 states and the District of Columbia before being allowed to practice or seek business. Licensing requirements vary state-to-state, but overall the architect must be educated, attain a certain level of experience, submit to and pass an examination, and register as an architect. Find out if your architect is licensed using Angi’s contractor licensing search tool. 

Many drafters go on to continue their education and become architects. Drafting is a necessary skill for architects, so learning drafting is often the first step on a path toward becoming a licensed architect. Drafting can also be a career on its own, with plenty of drafters choosing to specialize and focus solely on drafting.
