Goldenline Remodeling
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers Near Me
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJuly 6, 2020
“I contacted Golden Line Remodeling for my kitchen and I must say I was impressed with the final results. I felt like they were very open throughout the whole process and were able to explain in detail what was going to be done and how. They were always on time and professional. I’ve had remodeling done in the past and I always got anxious because there would always be a problem but with Guy it was a painless process all throughout. I highly recommend them and will contact them in the future if I ever need more work done.”
Tektura Studio

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsDecember 4, 2024
“I highly recommend Tektura Studio for all of your architectural and house designs needs. I had a wonderful experience working with them. Andrea, the owner, personally worked with us from design through construction of our new screened porch and deck addition. She was always available to answer our questions. She also helped us with the county inspections and worked closely with the contractors to ensure that everything was built as designed. I am so grateful to have found Tektura Studio. They are a talented group of professionals who take pride in their work. I feel confident in recommending them to anyone looking for architectural or house design services.”
Nehemiah Construction LLC
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers Near Me
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJuly 11, 2017
“Working with Nehemiah Construction was an amazing experience. The owner was professional, active throughout the whole project and easy to communicate with. He was especially helpful in helping me choose a hardwood floor. The way he helped me understand what was best was an art form. He wasn’t pushy, just knowledgeable. I get so many complements on my hardwood floors to this day.”
OC Builders Group
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers Near Me
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJuly 5, 2019
“We hired OC Builders for a full Kitchen remodel and an installation of a 20’ sliding door. When we met our contractor, Moe, he went over everything in detail and answered all of our questions. Moe was happy to give advice on materials and design but was also fine working with our design. It was a nice balance. We’ve had mixed experiences with contractors on smaller projects in the past but we’re so glad we hired OC for this project. Everything went as expected and there were no surprises. The original quote was pretty close to what the final charges were and the timeline went very smoothly. Moe was extremely communicative and addressed any issue we had in a timely manner. The site was always left very clean every day and the workmen were very professional. We are finished now and loving everything about our beautiful open kitchen and large new doors that open to our back yard. We will not hesitate to hire OC Builders again for future projects.”

“My kitchen now looks beautiful and new again, I hired HomeTech to remodeled my kitchen counter tops and my faucet, they were very helpful and got the work done professionally and fast, they even replaced a piece of wood that the pipe with a leak got very wet and humid.

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsOctober 11, 2020
“Eli helped me choose dark brown espresso shaker kitchen cabinets for my new kitchen remodeling. Self closing hinges and drawers are sweet! High quality cabinets and hardware reasonably priced made me very happy. The installation was done in one day, the granite and sink the next day, plumbing the sink closed out the project on the third day. Amazing! Cleanliness, professionalism, and communication were all wonderful. I am extremely pleased. Superior quality, great service, and wonderful pricing have me very satisfied.”
Maughan Design & Remodel
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers Near Me
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsSeptember 22, 2012
“Last fall, we took on our first remodel project (master bath) and hired Kathie Maughan to work with us on the project. While we had the choice of just having her do a design for us, we knew we wanted the added comfort of having her handle all the details, and had her manage the project as well. This was a really good decision. Kathie made sure we felt comfortable with every phase of the project and worked hard at correcting any issues that came up. She checked in almost every day and was always available to answer my questions (even on a Saturday at one point). But beyond the pleasure of working with Kathie, is the pleasure of working with her wonderfully conscientious crew. They answered questions, explained processes and were unfailingly friendly and courteous. This is a great bunch of people to have come into your home and leave a beautiful space behind. We are truly pleased with the results and will use Maughan Design again in the future.”
Level Up Home Remodeling Inc
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers Near Me
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsApril 19, 2017
“Our recent home project included the complete remodeling of the kitchen, 3 bathrooms and wet bar. My husband and I decided on Level up home remodeling following our due diligence process (having interviewed multiple contractor candidates) given the prior reviews, competitive proposal, and positive impressions following our discussions with Issac. Issac estimated 3 months to complete the project beginning in August 2016, and although there were the unknown but expected bumps in the road along the way during the project, was able to complete the job on a timely basis. Both quality of workmanship and timely completion of the job was important to us, and Issac and his team delivered on both counts. Those working on our project were hard working competent individuals, punctual, courteous and easy to engage in conversation. Issac was at our site on a daily basis both overseeing the project and hands on with regards to any task. He and his team provided professional, thoughtful and viable options and resolutions to each situation/issue as they arose. We have used other contractors in the past, but Level up home remodeling outperformed all the predecessors. We are pleased with the results and would not hesitate in bringing back Issac team for other construction projects going forward.”

The architect will help you throughout the entire process, from initial concept development to managing the construction phase and ensuring everything is built according to plan. They will also collaborate with other professionals, such as builders and contractors, to bring your dream home to life.

By working with a residential architect, you can benefit from their knowledge and experience in creating unique and personalized spaces that reflect your style and lifestyle. They will guide you through the design and construction process, making sure that your home is not only visually appealing but also practical and safe.

Consulting with an architect early on allows you to bring your residential vision to life in the most efficient and effective way possible.

  1. It’s best to involve an architect early in the planning stage of your project to benefit from their expertise and guidance.
  2. Hire an architect before selecting a builder or contractor to streamline the construction process.
  3. While there isn’t a specific time of year, consider engaging an architect during quieter periods like summer. It allows for more thoughtful discussions, better availability, and potentially shorter project queues.
It is best to hire a residential architect who will be involved in all phases of the design process, from the initial concept to the completed construction. They are often the first person you will hire for your project, and it's common for architects' contractors, or subcontractors, to prefer working with one another, which means better relationships and smoother work on your home. Interior architects are also involved in negotiating contracts for all involved participants, from builders, to engineers and even landscapers. It is for these reasons that it is extremely important for you to have a good relationship with the residential architect you hire. He or she can be the tie-breaking vote between you and the general contractor and can be your biggest advocate during the construction process. Different residential architecture firms provide different services, so the scope of the work can span from pre-design environmental impact studies to selecting furniture and
  • What is your fee structure?
  • What does the cost include?
  • Do you have professional liability insurance?
  • Can you handle my special requests (ADA, LEED etc.)?
  • What types of renderings (3D, video, illustrative) will you produce?
  • What is your experience with similar projects?
  • When do you expect to start and be finished with the project?
  • What do your services include? (It's best that the services are until construction is completed.)
  • What happens when the cost exceeds the budget?
  • Can you provide me with references?
  • Would you say your work has a defining style? (This is important in case the architect's personal style will interfere with your vision.)
  • Will you help with hiring a general contractor and subcontractors?
  • What do you estimate the cost will be?
  • What will I need to provide?
  • Are there any complications you foresee with this project?
As far as the process goes, the architecture firm or individual that you choose will start with concept drawings and finish with construction drawings and documents. Some firms even design with 3D renderings and videos, but that should not be assumed. One of the most important duties of a residential architect is to serve as managers and supervise most aspects of construction, as well as facilitate communication between all other contractors, so you can expect them to be present throughout the entire building process to ensure everything is executed as planned.
