"Brian is a brilliant Architect. He drew up plans for a custom home. He is an old school kind of guy and very personable. I gave him the size of lot and provided a few photographs of houses we liked. We told him of our ideas and he implemented it and put it on paper. While driving I found a cute house, I stopped and took a picture. The owners were outside and I told them I thought they had a great house. They asked if I wanted to see the inside and they told me what they would have changed if they could. There was a lot of open space in the home. I showed Brian, we thought we can make it a loft or enclose it and turn into a master bedroom. There was a porch in front and in back, we did not need two. Brian said, lets remove one and bump out the kitchen. He had very reasonable ideas and sent us the drawings. We went back and forth a few times with our ideas. He would say, this looks brilliant but impractical. Brian made repeated adjustments and design changes; he was very patient throughout. He provided reasonable pricing, great value and amazing aesthetic. Then he sent the design that works. He made himself available throughout construction. If I called with questions, he answered the phone, even on Saturday. With all the changes we made, we would not have changed a thing. We love our house and are living in our dream home. We would hire him again in a heart beat with no hesitation."

"The whole process was great from the prompt estimate to working with me on my tight timeline to paint the majority of the inside of my new house. The team worked every day to get the job completed and didn't skimp on preparing the edges, cleaning up the trim, and ensuring the proper amount of coats made it to the walls."

Architects questions, answered by experts

In most cases, you should hire a draftsperson for simpler projects like minor home renovations, and you should hire an architect for new construction, structural changes to your home, and large home add-ons. If you’re working on a larger project that demands an architect or structural engineer, your professional will often have a draftsperson on staff and include their services in your estimate.

Typically, architects do not build homes in a hands-on sense of doing the actual framing, roofing, or other building. Architects usually do not have the training and experience to build the homes they design. An architect would need to know how to do the specific trades required to build a house, which is possible but not a common practice. A general contractor or homebuilder typically oversees the actual details of building the house that the architect designs.

With proper training and experience, reading blueprints is fairly straightforward and not very difficult. If you don’t have the necessary knowledge to interpret the symbols, abbreviations, and other notations used, blueprints may not make sense. Learning to read blueprints can help you understand the construction process and keep you more involved and informed when you’re building a house.

In most cases, yes, hiring a draftsperson will be more affordable than the cost of hiring an architect. However, it’s important to note that the reason is because these professionals provide different services. Draftspersons are more affordable because they do more general mock-ups that help align your contractors with your vision for your home renovation project. An architect will provide more detailed drawings that include technical specifications, structural considerations, and even mechanical components, like electrical box and HVAC ductwork placement.

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.
