"Elijah installed 200 ft of stone and metal border/edging, removed several small trees, planted appx 12 hedge bushes, delivered and spread 30 yards of mulch, and did several other things in my yard. Work was top quality, and his communication was even better. He kept me informed about every detail of the work being performed. The best example of Elijah's professionalism is as follows..... The excavator did a number on my yard because of the excessive rain we had. My back yard grass was a nasty, muddy mess. It wasn't Elijah's fault, but he said, "I'm going to make your grass look better than it did before we started your project." And he did. He graded, aerated, seeded, and put hay over the seed, at no cost. He did it because he cares about his customers and he always wants to do the right thing. I have other small examples as well, but the point is that I WOULD NOT HESITATE to hire Elijah/Chase for ANY landscape work I need in the future."

Architects questions, answered by experts

While Craftsman-style houses are bungalows, cottages typically aren’t, though they can be. But they also differ in other stylistic aspects. For instance, cottages usually have simpler designs and painted woodwork.

Greek Revival architecture was popularized in America in the early- to mid-1800s, around the time when archaeologists were discovering buried ancient Greek buildings. As a means of celebrating the democratic government in ancient Greece, American architects borrowed from those newly discovered buildings as a way to emphasize that America would remain a democratic country in the wake of the American Revolution.

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.

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. 

The best way to start designing a house is to know what you want before designing. Making a list of your biggest priorities in a home will help. Designing a house without an idea of what you need or want in a home will lead to many trials and errors that could make it harder to figure out what you need in your design.
