Q: Do architects need to be licensed or certified?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;s <a href="https://www.angi.com/angi-license-check.htm">contractor licensing search tool</a>. </p></div>

Q: Can I design a house myself?

• <div><p>While you will always work with a team of professionals at some point during your home build, homeowners with experience can take on some part of the process. Manage the initial brainstorm, brief writeup, and floor layout phase with minimal assistance before contacting a general contractor. And while you can purchase stock blueprints for some home designs, it's always best to speak with professionals when choosing one ideal for your property.</p></div>

Q: Can the architect of my house help me determine when it was built?

• <div><p>Consulting the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-architect-cost.htm">architect</a> of your house is not the best way to determine when it was built. Many homes are built by developers or builders, so there may not be a specific architect to track down&mdash;especially if you have a very old house. Instead, it&rsquo;s best to rely on local government records. </p></div>

Q: At what point in my project should I involve an architect?

• <div><p>You should have an architect involved in your project from the very beginning. They&rsquo;ll be able to direct your vision into workable plans, and they can advise you on potential problems right from the start. You may be able to save money by not using an architect, but larger projects will go much more smoothly with an experienced pro directing the process.</p></div>

Q: Are home elevators a good choice to improve my home’s accessibility?

• <div><p>A home elevator is a fantastic way to improve your home&rsquo;s accessibility. Elevators allow anyone, even those who use wheelchairs or walkers, to safely move between floors within your home.</p><p>Dumbwaiters may allow you to move items up and down floors, and stair lifts can move people up and down, but elevators are the best option if you need space for people, their belongings, and/or mobility aids such as wheelchairs.</p><p>That said, home elevators cost more than other options, such as stair lifts. Consider your needs <i>and</i> your budget when deciding the best way to make your home more accessible to a person with a disability or a person who is <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-is-aging-in-place.htm">aging in place</a>.</p></div>
