"The design was sophisticated, creative, AND within my budget. During the design process different options were considered and refined and resulted in a efficient construction phase with zero delays. Throughout construction I always felt as if Kristi (the Architect) always had my best interest in mind. There were frequent visits and reviews of the quality and completeness of the work and any questions I had were answered quickly. The entire process - from design to completion of construction - was absent any of the drama I have experienced from other construction companies! I give Amethyst Contracting my highest praise and recommend them without hesitation."

"Working with Matthew was an absolute pleasure. He took our ideas about what we saw in our head and was able to implant them onto paper with his design. Matt listened to us on every single detail and aspect that we were looking for but also strategically placed certain things with his artistic and architectural skills and knowledge. It started out with getting a feel for the contours of the land and feeling out where the house " wanted to be" and not necessarily what was the most inexpensive place to put the house. We went through multiple basic drawings together to get a feel for what we wanted. Matt was not afraid to remind us how we would "FEEL" about a certain space if we removed or added something due to cost. His concept of emotive space is inspiring and ultimately led to our beautiful home. Quite specifically we wanted a REAL fireplace and chimney with full stone and mortar and rumford style fireplace. And we wanted it in the middle of the house. Matt described it as the heart of the home and we were able to construct the house around the stone mass. When you walk in the front door you get this feeling of warmth and comfort just gazing at the massive chimney. I think Matt's services are well worth the design fee's that are extremely reasonable and especially when you create the house from scratch. We went from a stout colonial to a warm 2 story cottage. Matt was also with us every step of the way for the bidding process and basically general contracting the project. I am not sure if he is still offering these services but we were able to do all of the legwork for bidding, permits, scheduling, basically of the general contracting needs ourselves. Matt simply provided his licensing and field reports for the Inspections. We were able to save A LOT of money this way and could afford to build our dream home. In short if you want to have a hand's on building experience with an Architect that wants to help you build emotive spaces and not just another house on the block reach out to Matt."

"I’m a realtor and I had a client selling their house who needed a structural engineer to evaluate something. I called Jendusa because they are so well respected that I knew their report would answer and questions the buyer’s had. I called and Venu met me at the home. He was extremely knowledgeable and went above and beyond to answer questions. I highly recommend them!"

"I've worked with many contractors over the years and JJB is the best I've worked with for residential remodeling. That's no small statement. JJB is responsive, communicative, on-time and on-schedule, does not cut corners, always willing to tackle new issues or problems that arise during construction, respectful of neighbors / other tenants, and very fairly priced for the quality of work that they provide. We even had some city permitting issues from prior construction that JJB was able to take on and get cleared up. I can't express how much headache this saved me! On top of being great contractors, Joe and Jeff and their team are also just great people - very personable, easy to communicate with, and a pleasure to be around. They really desire to make their customers happy and to do good work. You won't find any cheap shortcuts or shoddy work with this team. When the time comes for another construction job in the area, they will be my first call. I really can't give much of a higher recommendation than that!"

FAQs for architectural service projects in Bayside, WI

While you might think that architects only draw blueprints for buildings, they are much more involved in the overall construction process than you might realize. While they aren’t the ones swinging the hammers, architects do the following: 

  • Communicate with the homeowner on the project request, including assistance when exact plans aren’t known

  • Develop computer-aided models and blueprints of the requested design

  • Ensure that the design incorporates form, function, and safety features

  • Provide the contractor with the agreed-upon design

  • Supervise the general contractor and any subcontractors throughout the project

  • Communicate any needed changes to the project with the homeowner and draw new plans accordingly

Before settling on and hiring an architect, it’s beneficial to you as a homeowner to ask some questions to familiarize yourself with their work. After all, you wouldn’t want to spend time and resources on a professional that doesn’t specialize in exactly what you want in a house. Some questions to ask your architect include: 

  • How do you charge for services? Is it on an hourly basis, based on square footage, or based on project size?

  • How do we work together to stay on budget for this project?

  • Do you anticipate any future challenges with this project? How are these communicated?

  • What is your project management style? If you are not handling the day-to-day details, who is my point of contact? 

  • Can I see previous similar projects that you’ve completed?

  • Do you have any specialty experience, like working on historic homes or using sustainable building materials?

The average cost to hire an architect for your home project ranges between $2,200 and $10,500. However, depending on location and project type, you might end up paying as little as $600 or as much as $45,000 or more. For example, the average cost of hiring an architect in North Carolina is between $1,800 and $2,000, but in California, that price tag jumps to $3,600 to $15,200

The price you pay for your architect also depends on their experience level. For example, a principal architect, the firm's owner, typically charges $150 to $250 per hour. However, an intern architect with three to five years of experience usually only charges $45 per hour. 

After you’ve spoken with your contractor and agreed on a project, they’ll draw up blueprints, or plans, that the construction crew will use. The blueprint process can take between four and six months to complete. While this can seem like a long time, remember that the architect must communicate with your municipality to determine codes, communicate with you as the homeowner with any changes or adjustments, and coordinate with the construction crew. 

If you simply remodel your home or add an addition, the time to draw up the plans will be shorter since fewer permits and surveys are required. Even still, it’s best to plan for a few months for the architect to complete this part of the project.

Knowing if you need an architect for your project can be tricky, especially if you've never worked with one before. In general, small remodeling projects like replacing fixtures typically don't require the expertise of an architect. However, larger projects, like moving walls or adding an addition to your home, should include an architect to ensure the project is structurally sound.
