"I recently hired Iconiq Construction for my bathroom renovation, and I couldnt be happier with the results! From start to finish, the team was professional, attentive, and detail-oriented. They transformed my vision into reality, and the quality of their work exceeded my expectations. The entire process was smooth, and they kept me informed every step of the way. My new bathroom is stunning, functional, and everything I hoped for. Iconiq Construction is definitely a 5-star company, and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch renovations!"

"We needed some room additions to our small house in Burien. After speaking with several other architects and seeing how flaky they were right off the bat, we were dreading the whole process. After speaking with Char once we knew we were in good hands. Her communication was perfect. We would have weekly updates to go over the process and discuss any changes or recommendations. We were on a tight budget for the building costs, so when we found a contractor that we enjoyed, they were able to understand and calculate an accurate estimate from her drawings that were within our budget. She was able to get all the permitting for the additions from the City of Burien within 3 weeks with no redactions. We would hire her again, as matter of a fact, we did hire her for another build/design, Immediately after designing the house additions, but we just ran out of money for that build. I even recommended her to several other friends with their builds."

"I have been a homeowner in the PNW for nearly 20 years now, & I know how difficult it is to find decent contractors in this area. While preparing my home for sale recently, I had an extensive list of tasks I needed completed that really ran the gamut: from painting, drywall & electrical to trash removal. The property was in a dilapidated state after years of neglect & I had a limited budget to apply to the project. I met with-or tried to meet with-several contractors through Angieâ s List. I endured no-show after no-show & dozens of flat-out ignored messages. I was talked down to, treated rudely, given outrageous quotes or told wait times were 6-8 months, sometimes even to get a mere quote! I was at my witâ s end. As a woman & a lay person, it can sometimes be difficult to navigate these waters; but this was beginning to feel pretty hopeless! I was left frustrated & a little angry, even.Then, Angieâ s List sent me a referral for Cedarbrook Construction. I called & surprisingly, CJ returned my call that day-within hours. The day we met for the quote, he was early & he confirmed via text. I was stunned! From that point on, I have been pleased & impressed with Cedarbrook Construction. CJ began by taking detailed notes during our discussion & house tour-something no other contractor had done. That is because Cedarbrook is completely above board. They make sure that everything is in writing; & that makes you feel protected & confident as a client. CJ immediately drafts contract changes so everything you discuss is clearly represented for both parties. There is never any confusion over what needs to be done or pricing; & if there are questions or issues, he faces them head-on. CJ & his team are fantastic: they do great work. They all go the extra mile for you. It is evident that they care about their work from the quality of the results. Another great thing about Cedarbrook is their consistent accessibility: (this is essential & yet seems to make Cedarbrook a unicorn among PNW contractors) CJ is actually reachable & always responds quickly to inquiries. He also uses the Rivet app, so you can track the progress of your projects in real-time. Their pricing is extremely fair & reasonable. Lastly, & this is lovely-he & his employeesâ attitudes are always upbeat & cordial. Thanks to CJ & his team, my house was on the market for a mere four days. It looked like eye candy when they were done. I was proud to show it off & hand it over to the new owners, knowing that the work that had been done to prepare it for them was solid. The bottom line is that Cedarbrook Construction just cannot be beat-they are the BEST contractor, hands down, I have ever used in the PNW!!!"

Architects questions, answered by experts

Federal and Colonial architecture are similar in that they both appear mostly utilitarian and symmetrical, but Federal architecture is a bit more ornate. Federal design often includes decorative palladium windows, window lintels, and, sometimes, columns surrounding a more decorative portico. Inside, Federal architecture is set apart by its centrally-located oval room. Additionally, Federal homes tend to have brick facades, whereas Colonial homes more often have wood siding.

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.

Some homes, like those with flat roofs, may not have eaves at all. Some contemporary-style homes also lack eaves, although many may have abbreviated eaves to divert water and protect the walls and foundation. Homes without eaves often have specific types of gutters affixed directly to the edge of the roof to provide adequate drainage.

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.

The primary reason homes have crawl spaces is so the foundation can reach down below the frost line to avoid dangerous soil movement and structural damage when the ground freezes. They’re more popular in colder climates where the ground freezes down to a few feet, and slabs are most popular in warmer areas where there is no frost line. Crawl spaces also provide a space for utility lines to run where they’re at less of a risk of freezing.
