Customers say: Quick response

"I’ve been working with Steve Medeiros of SPM Design on a complete remodel of my home, and I highly recommend him. From the start, Steve produced excellent designs that really captured what I was hoping to achieve with the renovation. His ideas were thoughtful, practical, and improved the overall vision for the house. What really stands out is how easy Steve is to work with. As the project evolved and some plans changed—as they often do in a major renovation—he was always flexible, responsive, and willing to adapt the design to make things work better. He consistently came back with smart solutions and improvements. Steve is professional, creative, and collaborative throughout the entire process. If you’re looking for an architect who delivers great design and is genuinely enjoyable to work with, I strongly recommend Steve Medeiros and SPM Design. I’m very glad I found him."

"I wanted to maximize the space in my basement art studio and asked Jane Estella, principal architect at Artios Architects, to look at it. Very quickly she assessed that if I removed the coal bin in my 100-year-old house basement I would achieve my objective. I followed up and am very happy. I owe a lot to Jane's vision for an art studio with better space."

"We recently had a complete roof replacement. Before proceeding, we did comprehensive research of area companies and Vista came out on top, with good reason! All appointments were not only on time but were extremely punctual. We met first with Product Specialist Holly, who was enthusiastic, very knowledgeable and helpful. While at our home assessing the proposed job, Project manager Rick explained the entire process in layman's terms. The day of the job, Project Supervisor Marc arrived early and went over the entire job with the crew. All company representatives left us with a business card with their cell #'s to call if we required anything. The installation crew was amazing. They arrived early and began immediately. They were no nonsense, very focused and, worked like a well oiled machine. All Vista team members were polite and respectful of my special request to be cognizant around some of my more cherished trees & shrubs. Vista was fastidious in their care for my home and lawn, not one speck of debris was left behind. Vista, the installation crew, company representatives, everyone, exceeded our expectations. Vista stands behind their work and products. If you wish to relax after a major home improvement project knowing the job was done correctly, you will want to consider Vista. Dan & Kim Belchertown"

"Glenn was extremely responsive. I had trouble originally getting any contractors to give me an estimate, but Glenn was there the day after I called, and was able to fit us into a slot the same week to begin the work. The work took about a day and a half, and not only did they install the door they refinished and painted. Basically the finished product looked as if it had been there for years. I will never use anyone else for remodeling projects, Glenn and his crew were really friendly and you could tell they take pride in their work."

"After our fire, I couldn't find anyone willing to recommend a contractor so I turned to Angie's List and picked NE Renovations. I couldn't be happier with our choice. NE Renovations is everything I hoped for in a contractor, and more. Richard and the crew have been delightful to work with. Communication has been easy, estimates accurate, and when a problem arose - the plywood under one of the roofs was rotted - they gave us choices for fixing it. Everything is up front, no surprises. The crew arrived every day as promised and worked full days. And they are nice guys - polite, considerate of our home and dogs. Again tidiness was big. I would absolutely use NE Renovations again, and happily recommend them to friends. They made our house look beautiful!"

"DCR Construction was the best company I ever hired. I'll bullet point some of the highlights. * Setting good expectations for both price and timeline. Probably the most important and something I cared a lot about for the project. We added some work for change orders, but there weren't any real surprises in the price beyond a few things where the house itself was old (e.g. replacing some old wood in the framing) or things we chose to do (e.g. doing more exterior painting than we originally were thinking. The project would have actually beaten the timeline originally given to us except some of the things we ordered from other vendors took longer than we expected. This team held up their end of the bargain on timing. * Very communicative. We set up a chat group on whatsapp early between myself, Daniel, and my wife. This was great as we could get answers to things quickly, and he could communicate with us about what was coming next in the project. * Professional and efficient staff, and high quality work. All the folks I interacted with both from Daniel and the subcontractors were great to interact with. My neighbors commented that they were always respectful and friendly when working as well. All the people I interacted with seemed to care about their work and it showed in the finished work. I wasn't around for all the inspections but the ones I was around for went smoothly, and it never seemed like we were blocked on inspections or the city throughout the process. We've been living in our newly renovated house for a few weeks now and it's been pretty great. We've already been recommending Daniel to some of our friends who are considering projects. If we had to do another project, I would go straight to DCR Construction without hesitation."

Architects questions, answered by experts

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

Arched windows used to be most prevalent in more traditional home styles, like Spanish colonial and Gothic, but they are becoming increasingly popular in modern design. You’ll often find arched windows in new home builds across many styles, including farmhouse and contemporary architecture. This represents a more general trend toward more unique houses with interesting features.

Designing a building takes 2-6 months, depending on project size, required permits, and revisions.

Start by researching local contractors with experience in cottage construction. Ask for references, check licensing and insurance, and review completed projects. Compare multiple bids, making sure each includes the same scope of work. A good contractor will communicate clearly, provide a detailed contract, and ensure all work meets code and safety standards.

Designs typically take 2-6 months, depending on factoring, project size, and customization needs. Larger or more complex designs may require additional time for approval and revisions.
