Your life evolves over time, your home doesn’t. We’re here to help you discover what’s possible and help your home fit your ideal lifestyle and goals.
Whether you’re a homeowner and want to start with a home renovation project, or you’re a professional looking for a licensed architect to work alongside you, we’re happy to help you see what’s possible.
You’re not alone. Most homeowners looking to do a home renovation project struggle with the same things:
You have an idea of your ideal home renovation project, but aren’t 100% sure if it’s possible and don’t know where to start.
You don’t have any idea what the renovation would cost.
You talk to multiple builders, designers, and general contractors but each person has a slightly different project in their mind and quotes you on different projects so you can’t tell if you’re spending more than you should.
Builders don’t take you seriously and over quote your project or tell you they’ll give you a quote and never deliver because they have to find someone to spec out the work.
You’re sick of getting different quotes, having more people come in your house and wasting your time to tell you a different idea about what’s possible.
Save time, money, and frustrations by starting with a residential architect that works with other homeowners and professionals.
The problem with most architects is that they take on very few large projects a year. They charge a percentage of a full building’s cost such as designing and building a home from scratch. That doesn’t make sense for home renovations.
Are you considering a Home Renovation project but aren’t sure where to start?
That’s why we started SketchHaus:
