Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Do I really need an architect?

A: On many small projects you may not need an architect. However, your home is probably your biggest investment, and you don't want to do anything that could be detrimental to it. An architect can help you get the most aesthetically pleasing and functionally efficient result. In addition, in the construction stage, your architect is looking out for your interests. As he observes the construction he can make sure the plans are being followed and you are getting the quality of product you are paying for from the builders.

Q: Who is first a contractor or an architect?

A: You need a team of both, but generally you should talk to an architect first because he can help you set the scope of your job. He will know the zoning restrictions, height and setback restrictions, structural considerations and what your budget will allow. I recommend contractors that are suited to you and your project. If you know a contractor you would like to use, check his references and recent jobs.

Testimonials

"Michele is very easy to work with and meets her deadlines as expected. Our plans didn't quite meet the rules/regs of our association which delays the approval from DPP but Michele was there to work with our association and resubmit updated plans as needed to both our association and DPP. We are very pleased with the quality of work and the cost of the project."
