"Our addition looks wonderful. All our friends say it looks like it was always part of our house. All phases of construction were excellent. All subs were excellent. The price was fair. Here is our story. We had been looking to add a room to our house for a year. We had been fired by 2 contractors who found bigger jobs before they could start our project. In comes GreenFinn, David Green and Chris Finn. They immediately put us at ease which was not easy considering our previous experience in trying to get our addition started. My wife Teresa made the remark to me after we first met with GreenFinn. â These guys will not screw you.â Her intuition proved correct. Other contractors wanted $2K plus to draw up plans just to get a building permit. At our second meeting with GreenFinn, Chris had drawn up plans and gave them to us for free and with out a contract. They started building our addition with no money down. David said that they would bill us after they delivered something of value. They worked for a month before sending us an invoice. All work came it at or below our contract price. There was no â contractor upward creepâ in the pricing at any time. They added a 14â x14â room with 5 windows, 2 skylights, one exterior door, cut a new opening into our house and converted our back door into an open passage way to the new room. They repaired a leak in the roof of our existing home and re-roofed part of it. They also added supports under our kitchen floor. All repairs that could not priced up front were also priced fairly and within the parameters they outlined. All finish work was excellent and on time. David Green is the onsite face of the company and he makes sure that all work is done to the customers satisfaction even when the customer is willing to accept less. One example at our job, the opening through a wall in our house had been cut larger than I really liked. David asked me how I liked it and I replied it was fine, but he could tell that something was going on in my head. and he kept probing until he had me admit that that I would prefer a smaller opening. It was changed immediately to the size that I really wanted. Here is the contractor pushing the home owner to make a change that the home owner really wants, but will cost the contractor more money. This is rare. This is how GreenFinn works, they donâ t just get the job done. They push you to make sure everything is done the way you want it and looks the way you want. In closing all I want to say is if you are smart, you will use these guys. You will not be sorry. Ridley Hutchinson 303 570 7270"

Architects questions, answered by experts

Fees depend on project size, design complexity, required permits, materials, labor, and whether additional consulting services are included.

There are differences between universal design and ADA accommodations, but the outcomes are often similar. While universal design is a proactive process that takes a social justice approach to accessibility for all, ADA accommodations are focused specifically on accessibility for individuals living with disabilities. ADA accommodations often take the shape of wider doors and hallways, ramps, elevators, lower counters and sinks, and easy-to-grab door handles; universal design can include these plus emphasize better lighting, tractioned floors, and other building elements that allow all people to use buildings more comfortably.

Most Greek Revival architecture homes are one and a half to two stories, depending on the footprint, which sets them apart from some Federal architecture homes that are three stories. The gabled roof on the second floor can sometimes cut into the living space, especially on smaller homes of this style, which leaves a much smaller living area upstairs.

Hiring a contractor with knowledge about historic renovations and reviewing their previous work is important. You can find a historic home renovation contractor by calling your local historic preservation office, historical society, or any local historic museums nearby. The staff may have suggestions for specialized contractors who have worked for them. You can also ask them about historic home restorations that you have seen and liked in your area to get recommendations for pros.

Open floor plans can come with drawbacks—mainly the lack of privacy and noise dampening. Walls act as an important barrier for traveling sounds, meaning in an open floor plan you could hear your dishwasher running while sitting in your living room. Storage limitations and separation of activities (for example, keeping the kid’s playroom away from the dining room) are other reasons some homeowners are opting out of an open floor plan.
