"AMAZING!! This was my first experience with remodeling and I don't think it could have gone any better - the process was truly seamless! Sabrea and her team did a fantastic job getting all the material ordered and contractors lined up that the project (full kitchen, master and guest bath) was done in just 3 weeks! Sabrea also really took the time to listen to what I wanted and present me with many different options and layouts which I truly appreciated!! It took my breath away when I first walked in and saw the finished product. I can't say enough good things about this company. Definitely give them a try!"

Architects questions, answered by experts

Greek Revival architecture was popularized in America in the early- to mid-1800s, around the time when archaeologists were discovering buried ancient Greek buildings. As a means of celebrating the democratic government in ancient Greece, American architects borrowed from those newly discovered buildings as a way to emphasize that America would remain a democratic country in the wake of the American Revolution.

Universal design costs can be minimal when you add them during construction; however, adding universal design principles to existing homes can sometimes increase renovation costs. For example, a mid-grade bathroom remodel is estimated to cost around $30,000, while a standard universal design remodel can cost closer to $40,000. Adding accessible design components can include widening hallways ($500 to $2,000), curbless showers ($2,000 to $8,000), and widening doors ($400 to $800). Keep in mind that these increased costs can lead to higher resale values because universal homes may appeal to a wider variety of buyers.

A designer is a great choice for remodeling projects that don’t require significant structural work. For remodeling that includes structural work like removing load-bearing walls, altering exterior walls, or adding on a room, an architect can design and execute the renovations while ensuring your home remains structurally sound.

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.

Building designers charge between $2,000 and $50,000, depending on project scope, complexity, and customization.
