Historic Building Conservation Companies in Orlean

“Tom Flach, our architect at Kohlmark, 100% understood what we wanted in our new home. But he didn’t stop there, he made the plans better than we even knew were possible. Tom was always available to answer our questions and to help us with any decisions or issues that arose. His skill, his vision, his guidance, and integrity made this experience a lot easier for us.”

“This team did an excellent job with our renovation plans. The finished space exceeds our expectations and adds value to our home!”

“We have worked with Tom Gilbride, president of T.J. Gilbride Architects, on a few projects and are currently building one with them now. Tom's approach with the clients is excellent. He takes the time to make sure they understand the details of the project before it's being built. His knowledge of details and products available on the market is extensive. He makes clients feel informed and at ease during the whole design and construction process. From a general contractor's position working with his drawings, we have been pleased with the level of detail and clarity they provide. He's also involved on the construction side of projects from a construction administrative standpoint. Unlike some other architects we've worked with, he's helpful and available to the general contractor and the subs as needed throughout the project. He has a good understanding of the means and methods of construction demonstrated in his construction drawings. This understanding is also a refreshing trait for a builder that fosters a good relationship and communication throughout the project, ultimately leading to a well built project and satisfied clients. I would highly recommend T.J. Gilbride Architects to anyone looking to build or renovate as well as to builders looking to partner with a quality architectural firm.”

“We used J Tucker for a major addition to our house. He did a fantastic job with us and with our builder. We couldn't be more pleased with the results--when we built and now, ten years later.”

“Dan was an amazing resource for my house renovation, helping me at all stages of the project. He assisted me in figuring out the financing and then worked closely with me in an iterative way, going through various options to create the plans for what ultimately became my dream home. Dan's value was in combining a keen artistic eye with great structural and engineering knowledge as well a through knowledge of the permitting process and economics of house renovations. He also introduced me to a terrific contractor who proved invaluable and well as vendors and suppliers who were great. Renovating a house can a daunting and sometimes scary process, but Dan's good counsel, sound advice, first-hand experience, and architectural skills made the process exciting, fulfilling, and even fun. I highly recommend him.”

“Clites Architects designed a multi-story garage to be added to my 30 year old home. Impeccable attention to detail allowed this addition to my property to be fully integrated into the existing environment. The landscaping was barely finished when friends commented that it appears as though it was part of the original home.”

“Everyone at FitzHarris Design is great to work with and Heidi especially brings her own very special perspective to the process. Her attention to the details and making sure her plans are complete is what sets her above her competition. We highly recommend this firm and look forward to working with them on many future projects.”

“Scott was incredibly helpful, he explained a lot to me and gave me advice even after he knew I was not going to use him as an architect, he still took the time to make sure I was on the right track and told me things to ask the architect I was using instead to make sure my project was done right. The only reason I did not go with him was because the architect I originally got a quote from was less expensive because I was tweaking a design they had already created, versus starting from scratch. Otherwise I would have chosen Scott. He is a good person, very helpful and seems like an incredibly knowledgeable architect. I would recommend him for sure.”

“HSHI has worked with James Hricko Architecture on multiple residential remodeling and new construction projects over the past 8 years. From projects with universal design requirements to a growing family’s needs to empty nesters whole house renovation to renovation of an estate dating back to the 1700s, Jim has been a great resource and a wonderful architect to work with. He is a creative thinker with an eye for the details. He listens attentively to our client’s specific needs and works to them. We work at getting our clients’ dreams to reality and Jim Hricko is part of the team to make that happen. It’s always a positive and inspirational experience for our clients. We highly recommend and always look forward to working James Hricko Architecture.”

“Mike Garcia Construction has had the pleasure of working with Dave Guy since 1997. He has the ability to balance both design and cost. He will work with you to take your ideas and make them a reality while guiding you to make wise decisions that will affect the cost to build.”
