My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

We needed Pete to design a remodel after a tree landed on our house during a storm. He did an amazing job designing a beautiful home working with our existing first floor and creating the layout and space we needed on the second floor. We highly recommend Pete for any design/build needs!

When I enlisted Peter to design the addition and major renovation of my itty-bitty depression-era farmhouse, I knew it was going to be a tall order to turn the tiny, chopped up, shanty into someplace I could feel at home. In addition to that, my budget was fairly aggressive and I needed to do the renovations in two phases to facilitate living in my home through the whole process. What should have been a nightmare was a really fun process with Peter and his team of professionals. Peter gave me several iterations which I was able to view in three dimensions and make changes, all while keeping my budget in mind. Peter listened and incorporated my desires while giving me expert advice on how I could improve flow, layout and aesthetic. The resulting drawings are of an antique farmhouse with a modern fusion that i can build in my budget. The process was fun and simple from start to finish and was exactly how a design/build project should be approached.

Archia Homes worked with us to renovate and expand our kitchen. The team listened to our ideas and helped bring that vision to life. Details like exposed reclaimed beams, a gas fireplace, and shiplap ceiling brought character to the space; without their expertise and high end finishes, we never could have accomplished this final product. The team and their subcontractors were pleasant to work with. They use a helpful app to keep communication open and details organized. We would recommend Archia Homes for your project.

During a late October 2021 storm, the crown of a very large oak tree fell on the roof of our home, causing substantial exterior roof and trim/fascia damage, as well as penetrating the interior ceiling, thereby allowing in rain. Within a few hours after contacting Archia the next day, they sent a crew to temporarily patch the roof and remove the dislodged interior beam that was hanging from the coffered ceiling (thereby preventing further damage). Over the next few weeks, Archia handled all of the permanent exterior and interior repairs. All this was done on a very timely, high quality and cost-effective basis, despite the general shortages of building materials and tradespersons. Heidi, Peter and Eli were excellent and we are very grateful. Thank you! Henry & Thalia

With over twenty years in the construction industry I’ve had my fair share of experiences with different builders, architects and building firms. Nothing compares to the all star team of Archia homes! Extreme attention to detail and quality are top priority. Peter’s drawings leave nothing to the imagination, with Heidi and Alli bringing it all to fruition. Archia homes as a design build firm will forever be my number one recommendation!

We worked with Archia Homes to reimagine our 200+ year old antique cottage in Scituate Harbor. We were looking for a builder who could support full scale construction, along with all of the nuances that come with an antique home and Pete Stames, Heidi Petrowicz and their team did just that. They tore down additions that had been tacked on over the years and excavated a new foundation, while also reinforcing the original antique foundation, and addressed a variety of other issues. This layer of the project was something we were very nervous about, but Archia tackled it head on. Along with this, they reworked a larger mudroom into a new master en suite bathroom, a laundry room, and a powder room. This took a lot of creative design on Pete’s part to make happen. The new addition houses our Kitchen, walk in pantry, a bar area, and a living room that opens up to a balcony deck. In most of these spaces we incorporated some really nice millwork on the walls and cathedral ceilings that turned out phenomenal. They set us up with their custom cabinetry partner to allow us to maximize the space in our smaller home. Archia achieved absolutely beautiful design. They are creative and collaborative and work with superior sub’s and partners. The craftsmanship in everything they did was superb and we highly recommend them.

It was an absolute pleasure working with Peter and Heidi. They hold themselves with the upmost professionalism and truly have a talent in what they do. They made the overwhelming task of designing a home easy and not stressful. They give you a sense of comfortability and confidence throughout the whole process and are always accessible when you have any questions. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

Commented: What brand, color and transparency is the deck stain?Hi Jennette. There is no stain on this deck, as is the case in most of our projects. While we occasionally do a composite deck, most of our projects are done in natural Ipe with no stain.
