Architect Questions and Answers

What does a residential architect do?

A residential architect listens to your goals, studies the site and constraints, designs floor plans and elevations, prepares drawings for permits and construction, and can help review bids and observe construction.

When do I need an architect?

An architect is valuable for new homes, additions, structural changes and remodels where layout, building codes or zoning are complex. Some jurisdictions require stamped drawings for certain projects, so check local requirements.

How do I choose an architect?

Review portfolios for projects similar in type and style, ask about the design process and deliverables, and confirm licensing in your state. Discuss how fees are structured and what happens during construction.

What affects the cost of hiring an architect?

Cost depends on the project's size and complexity, the services you need, such as design only or construction administration, the number of revisions and consultant needs like structural engineering.

How should I prepare to meet an architect?

Gather your property survey, existing plans or photos, a list of needs and wants, inspiration images and a budget range. Think about how you use your home now and what is not working.
