"Gwen and the team were extremely professional. Gwen added a different dimension to the project with her knowledge of botany and landscaping. She was able to identify the plants which needed to be moved and she suggested new plants to enhance the landscape. She also was very conscientious about the cost of the plants, their health, their ability to thrive ,and my preferences. Gwen drove all over the area to find the healthiest plants at the lowest cost. Our neighbors have told us how wonderful our landscape looks and what a difference it has made to our home. I will definitely have her back."

"These guys were great!! We had a delivery of a massive new front, all in one piece, very heavy. They handled it of total care and stored it in our garage with all the very long trim pieces for installation next day. Kind of an unusual item to deliver so was concerned about the glass, scratching, damage. Again, 5-star handling and very pleased!!"

"They did a fantastic job! My driveway was a mess of potholes and ruts. They came in and took it down to base level, graded the entire driveway and then put down new gravel. They were on time, did a great job and were very reasonably priced. I have a couple more projects that need done. Need drainage tile installed around my barn and some additional grading around my house and will definitely be calling them again!"

Architects questions, answered by experts

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.

Finding an architect for your project demands looking at the professional’s past work, speaking with prior clients to see what their experience was like, and discussing your project and vision with the expert to see what kind of input they have. Look for an architect that gets excited about your project or has experience with similar projects.

As with most large-scale home renovation projects, you’ll need an architect to map out the exact layout and specs of your above-garage room, which is required in many municipalities. Some general contractors will serve as your architect, or they may bring on a residential architect to assist with the plans.

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.

Hire an architect at the very beginning of your home-building process. An architect’s training and expertise can guide the process from start to finish to ensure you don’t miss or have to redo any important steps. An architect will also provide valuable input on design, materials, and other details right from the beginning.
