"Devaughn did great with our custom home design. He was very informative and professional when it came down to any questions we had or changes we needed done. He did our plans in a very fast manner and exactly how we visioned it. I would recommend him to everybody that needs new project."

"In trying to refinance my house, the mortgage company wanted a structural inspection. I hadn't obtained a structural engineer for years and I had no idea what we included or what the cost of an inspection should be. As I didn't THINK there were any structural issues with my property, I really didn't know for sure. AND, what would they be looking for? I spent a couple of hours at least trying to figure out what to expect and what I needed to do to prepare for a dreaded inspection. My brother tried to reassure me that I probably didn't have any issues to worry about - and he should know. He's been a remodeling contractor for the past 25 years! However, I was worried because of the small cracks that had appeared at the tops of several of my windows and above at least one door frame. Two days before FIF was to arrive two very small cracks showed up running perpendicular to the beam and wall. I had already fixed all the cracks in the house (almost assuredly from settling). But these TWO I couldn't just ignore (as my brother had suggested). So, I fixed them and pained the entire two walls upon which they appeared. I must say, I did a good job, too! Anshul from FIF showed up on time. He was very polite and even offered to take off his shoes! I assured him that he needn't take his shoes off. He was very professional and got right to work on the inspection. In a short time (less than an hour), he'd essentially completed his inspection. He invited me outside so that I could see what he was going to suggest for improvements but that didn't rise to the level that needed to be cited on the official report. His suggestions included adding cement diverters/extensions to gutter downspouts and sloping the dirt/lawn away from the house more. That was it! My house did not have any structural issues! I got the report the following day and I was able to close on time! I would not hesitate a moment in hiring FIF again! I also recommend it to anyone who needs a competent engineering inspection at a reasonable cost."

"I should have used Charles Todd Helton. A friend recommended me to another architect. I used the other. Big mistake on my part. I had a bad experience using the other one. I found Charles to be more professional, honest, more tuned in to what I wanted for a home design."

Architects questions, answered by experts

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.

A construction manager is particularly useful in the case of a large-scale build with custom design elements, so it’s usually worth it to hire one. They can help manage your budget, maintain quality control, oversee timelines, and navigate unexpected hurdles. While construction managers are pricey, they can actually save money in the long run by identifying cost-saving opportunities and ensuring the project stays within budget.

While Craftsman-style houses are bungalows, cottages typically aren’t, though they can be. But they also differ in other stylistic aspects. For instance, cottages usually have simpler designs and painted woodwork.

The cost to draw house plans typically ranges from $800 to $2,700, with standard blueprints averaging around $1,800. For a custom home, the cost is higher, with blueprints often falling between $5,000 and $20,000, and potentially more for very complex designs. Several factors influence the total price, including the project's size, the number of rooms, the type of drawings required, and the architect's experience level. You may also need to pay a structural engineer to ensure building safety, particularly for custom homes.

The architect you choose to work with should have experience with the type of design you’re interested in, a portfolio of similar projects they’ve completed, and a process and work style that aligns with your expectations. A seasoned architect will be able to provide you with all that information so you can ensure they’re a good fit.
