GARC Design
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Surry
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsAugust 4, 2017
“What they did was beyond our expectation.They spent a lot of time on truly understanding our lifestyle and needs, and introduced the “aging-in-place” concept. The scheme looks beautiful, detailed, and innovative.They did a good job on bringing out the potential of our house, which has great views to the lake. The new great room looks spacious and full of natural light. As their concept proposed, it will be vacation at home for us. Yang and Suping are delightful to work with. They are good at communicating their design. Since I’m not familiar with reading drawings, they used 3d models/images to help me understand, even a VR glass to help me visualize the rooms.”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJune 6, 2016
“We are glad we chose Dave Chase to help us with our major exterior home remodel project. Dave's skills were up to the job of designing a new look for our 20 year old home; and providing a knowledgeable sound architectural basis for all of the changes. Dave charged a fair price, and then committed to our project in a personable and reliable manner. He was available to us through change orders, and long after presenting the initial plans. We have already recommended Dave to friends who just purchased a lot and thinking of building a new home. Thank you Dave. We love our results!”

Residential Design Solutions, Inc
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Surry
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsDecember 19, 2018
“Carol at Residential Design Solutions, Inc is definitely one of the most talented residential designers I have worked with, and with 15 + years as a GC I have worked with a lot! But talent is only one of the ingredients needed to be really great. Carol not only completed my plan in a very timely manner but also followed thru with obtaining my James City County Building Permit by overcoming every obstacle the inspectors put in her way. You will not be disappointed! I guarantee it!”

“I've worked with Scott Stephens for several years now and consider him to be one of the best architects I know. His plans are clear and concise and his knowledge and experience shine through on every project. Scott is a pleasure to be around. He has an easy going, "down-to-earth" type personality, yet conducts meetings with the efficiency and professionalism homeowners need and require. Scott has my highest endorsement and I recommend him for anyone considering building a new home, or addition. Scott Wagner, Custom View”
Wermers Design & Architecture
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Surry
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsFebruary 25, 2014
“Mr. Wermers prepared architecture plans to renovate my existing 1700 s.f. ranch house and to construct a 2000 s.f. addition. The renovations included one bathroom, three bedrooms, kitchen, breakfast room, dining room and living room and to demo the existing one car garage. The additions included a family room, sunroom, two bathrooms, one bedroom, mudroom, two-car garage, laundry room, and a room above the garage (frog). While obtaining a building permit, City staff commented on the detail and thoroughness of the construction plans. Also, Mr. Wermers performed several inspections during construction that resolved several disagreements between the Contractor and the Owner. During the inspections, Mr. Wermers found a few construction faults that saved the Owner thousands of dollars.”

Is the scope of your home design project beyond simply replacing countertops or flooring? It’s the responsibility of a Surry home architect to transform human needs and desires into visual concepts and habitable structures. When you hire an architectural designer, you are not only hiring someone for their architectural services, but also to manage and coordinate other parties involved in the project. As you search through local Surry, VA architectural firms and designers, keep in mind the following tips to help you choose the perfect one: 

How do I find the best Surry residential design architect for my project?


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 Surry 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 in Surry, VA provide different services, so the scope of the work can span from pre-design environmental impact studies to selecting furniture and finishes, depending on what your specific needs are.

Questions to ask prospective Surry interior architects:


  • 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?
