Customers say: Quality work

"We were very pleased with the finished small rock retaining wall. It looks better than we had expected. However it took a little longer than we expected. They had said 10 days, and of course that meant working days. One day they did not show up and so we called and eventually they called back and said they were having trouble with the company truck. Another day they did not show up and we called and they said that they were getting materials. However we very much like the final results of the work."

"If you need landscaping work, don't hesitate—call Alamo City Scapes! Eric and his team truly exceeded our expectations. After inspecting our 29-year-old patio, Eric listened carefully to our ideas and helped transform them into something even better than we imagined. He and Jose took our vision and expanded on it, offering suggestions that improved the design in ways we hadn’t considered. We met almost every afternoon to review progress and discuss adjustments, and they were always accommodating to changes while respecting our budget. The attention to detail was outstanding, and every evening they cleaned up the work area. The team’s customer service was top-notch—friendly, respectful, and always upbeat. We appreciated hearing laughter and Christian music as they worked. This was a big project, but we’re confident they’d treat any job with the same dedication. We highly recommend Alamo City Scapes and will certainly use them again!"

Architects FAQs, 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.

When planning a new build, meet with an architect as your first step. Architects will often work with specific contractors and can ensure the contractor on your project is qualified and experienced to handle your build. Both the architect and the contractor should be involved with the project from the early stages, but the process may be smoother when you start with an architect.

Yes, designers collaborate with contractors and engineers to ensure a smooth construction process.

While you will always work with a team of professionals at some point during your home build, homeowners with experience can take on some part of the process. Manage the initial brainstorm, brief writeup, and floor layout phase with minimal assistance before contacting a general contractor. And while you can purchase stock blueprints for some home designs, it's always best to speak with professionals when choosing one ideal for your property.

Some architects include interior design in their portfolio of offerings, while some architectural firms employ interior designers to handle that aspect of home building projects or refer clients to interior designers they’ve worked with in the past. Ask a local architect whether they offer interior design services as well.
