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."

"They were amazing! This is actually my second time using this company. Easy to work with, very attentive, and very clean. I was surprised at how clean they were everyday after working all day. We had new grass installed with a nice flagstone walkway next to our drive way. New plants planted alone the walk up to my doorway. Really gave my home some curb appeal! Again, work was excellent and Eric really does pay attention to detail. I highly recommend this company for your next project. We will definitely be calling them back for our fall project."

"I can not recommend this company. Job performance was poor, & not completed as expected. Owner had to be called to return to finish the job, a long drawn out process. The only positive, was a nice sidewalk. Workers did not seem to have respect for my property, when they left part of garden decorations moved & not replaced. Sloopy concrete work. owner Job site was not cleaned up. Workers seem to have little respect for my property. The only positive outcome was a nice sidewalk I had requested."

Architects questions, answered by experts

The biggest upside to hiring an architect is that they will ensure an efficient building process without errors. They will also ensure your home is free from structural issues and that everything is up to building code. Many permitting agencies require architects to draw construction plans and layouts before working, so hiring an architect will also ensure your project is legal. Additionally, architects help homeowners have a clear idea of their project details before the project starts. Hence, they help unify all parties on a shared vision for the project.

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 best way to start designing a house is to know what you want before designing. Making a list of your biggest priorities in a home will help. Designing a house without an idea of what you need or want in a home will lead to many trials and errors that could make it harder to figure out what you need in your design.

The various types of architects can be broken down into eight distinct categories, but there can be specific specialties within each of them. Most homeowners will work with a residential, restoration, green, interior, landscape, or retrofit architect for projects. There are also lighting and commercial architects whose work is geared more toward large spaces and businesses.

Check reviews, compare quotes, and verify licensing. Ensure the builder has experience with modular construction.
