"I originally just wanted rose bushes taken out of the front yard, and new bushes planted. Then in the back yard I wanted a 25 ft section to have 5 different flowering bushes, and another area to be filled in with plants to help with it being continually wet. Working with Aaron was great, he gave me recommendations and insight as to what would and would not work. Once I made my decisions his team was out to do the work as the weather permitted. Once they had completed the work it looked so good we decided to have more landscaping done. This is a great company and the customer service was excellent. Aaron was very easy to work with and I would definitely use this company again."

"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!!"

"It took quite a bit of time to get the job started--over a month after I was told it would start. The project also took longer than I was told when the estimate was given. In the end, I am satisfied with the work, but don't expect Glen to be too responsive to questions. I had to call him often to keep up on how things were progressing and what was causing the delays."

"Excellent work ethic! Takes his time and pays attention to detail. I also had him mow my 2.5 acre lot and perform so landscaping details which he was happy to provide these services. I now realize how much I actually need this skilled young man to handle the task I have no clue how to complete. He is now my 1st "Go To" handyman! Erick Belmer"

Architects questions, answered by experts

You should have an architect involved in your project from the very beginning. They’ll be able to direct your vision into workable plans, and they can advise you on potential problems right from the start. You may be able to save money by not using an architect, but larger projects will go much more smoothly with an experienced pro directing the process.

If your project is complex, it may make sense to hire an architect to draw plans. An architect might also be a good person to hire if you want to ensure your plans adhere to building codes and regulations.

You can draw your own house plans using three-dimensional modeling software, but in most cases, you’ll need an architect to draw up the final plans. Architects understand local building regulations and requirements, so their plans will be necessary for getting permits approved, and they’ll also ensure your home is structurally sound. DIY house plans can be a good place to start to help visualize your project, but you should always defer to a professional before trying to proceed with the project.

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.

You have three options in terms of professionals who can draw up blueprints: a draftsperson, an architect, or a structural engineer. A draftsperson can sometimes draw up plans for new construction, but they more often work from approved plans for alterations or to provide 3D drawings. Architects are usually the best option for standard residential construction projects. Structural engineers might be necessary for custom home builds or for alterations that could affect your home’s structural integrity. Draftsmen cost the least of the three, followed by architects and then structural engineers.
