"We had a lot of work done to our backyard, including removing a playhouse and swing set, adding topsoil and seeding grass, adding a dry creek bed, and planting 15 bushes around the house. The project manager was very professional to work with and the crew not only did an excellent job but completed all the work on time."

"I could not have had a better experience than I had with Miller Landscapes. Ron, the owner, was responsive, on time, professional, and did what he said he would do, at the price he initially quoted. I originally had his team out to add trees along our fence for privacy. We added the mulching job a couple of days before he came. His team was also professional, cleaned up as they worked and worked quickly yet did a very thorough job. I even saw them bowing the debris off the street as they worked so that they weren't making a mess. I hung around and came outside from time to time and they were always friendly and courteous. Better yet, they did our trees in May 2016, and as of now (August) our trees look healthy and strong and already have grown. We were so happy with that job, that we asked them to come out again and add a front patio with flower bed around it. Due to our budget, we asked them to simply prep the flower bed (and I came in after they were finished and planted a few things), and Ron was totally fine with doing that for us. It was a big job, I know we could not have done it. They dug in deep so those pavers aren't going to budge. It was fun having Aaron, a Miller employee, show me different designs with the pavers, and then picking out our design on the spot. Again, on this job, as on the first, Ron's team was curteous, professional and friendly. I had asked Ron to let me know in advance when they would be there because I have four dogs and wanted to be home while it was done so my dogs didn't freak out about strangers on our property. He did this for us, which made the process logistically easy on my end, and less stressful. The second job took a little longer than he originally thought, but they came every day and worked hard continuously, and since I periodically was watching what they were doing I got to see just how thorough and meticulous they were in laying our pavers. It was wonderful! I highly recommend Miller Landscapes to anyone who wants to make their yard more beautiful. You will not be disappointed."

"I recently had the pleasure of working with this home improvement company, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From start to finish, their team was professional, knowledgeable, and attentive to every detail. They completed the project on time, maintained excellent communication throughout the process, and exceeded my expectations with the quality of their work. The craftsmanship was outstanding, and it’s clear they take great pride in what they do. They left the work area clean and treated my home with care and respect. I highly recommend this company to anyone looking for reliable, high-quality home improvement services. Thank you for a job well done!"

"Nick and his team are simply too notch! I am always impressed at their design creativity and their ability to translate that into architectural drawings in a timely and professional manner for a fair price. Additionally, Nick and his team are well informed as to current codes and what City permit reviewers are looking for. Once, when the City wanted adjustments, Nick handled it personally and went over and above to help expedite matters. Nick is pleasant to deal with and easy to communicate with. I have recommended him to clients and wouldnâ t utilize anyone else!"

"They made my ugly duckling yard into a beautiful swan. They worked hard getting out rocks and dead plants. They came up with a beautiful arrangement of perennials. They did everything with excellence. They put concrete under the border wall. They broke up an old concrete patio and repoured it correctly with good stones and rebar. It all looks so beautiful and was done with integrity. They were very polite."

Customers say: Quick response

"We needed someone to go through the city variance process for our build. In the middle of the process our original architect was unable to finish our project and Tate Architectural Design was able to pick up where we left off and complete the job. They were also very easy to reach and helped us every step of the way with any questions we had. I would highly recommend."

Architects questions, answered by experts

The biggest upside to hiring an architect is that they will ensure an efficient building process without errors. They will also ensure your home is free from structural issues and that everything is up to building code. Many permitting agencies require architects to draw construction plans and layouts before working, so hiring an architect will also ensure your project is legal. Additionally, architects help homeowners have a clear idea of their project details before the project starts. Hence, they help unify all parties on a shared vision for the project.

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.

Cathedral ceilings make a statement in your home, but at the cost of your attic space. Normal attics are wide open, which allows warm air to move around and exit your home. Because of this, cathedral ceilings make your home less energy efficient and put your ceiling at risk of venting issues if you’re not careful. They also reduce your attic storage space, potentially cause an echo, and even make it harder to change a light bulb.

Drawing your own floor plans is acceptable for many kinds of projects, including interior design and room layout. You can use floor plan software to create the plans but keep in mind that the floor plan will only be as accurate as the measurements you take and enter into the software.

The primary reason homes have crawl spaces is so the foundation can reach down below the frost line to avoid dangerous soil movement and structural damage when the ground freezes. They’re more popular in colder climates where the ground freezes down to a few feet, and slabs are most popular in warmer areas where there is no frost line. Crawl spaces also provide a space for utility lines to run where they’re at less of a risk of freezing.
