"5++ stars! My home's exterior was cracking due to a poor job prior and drainage issues. Tom and Adam and the team not only gave me peace of mind moving forward with drainage, put in gutters, and re-did the entire exterior of my home (stained wood and stucco), but made it beyond beautiful!! They were communicative, timely, so easy to work with, and the end product is gorgeous. I would recommend them to anyone who needs a construction project done and can't wait to use them again on my next project!!"

"Over two months to get house plans. Communication was dismal and the majority of my phone calls and emails were ignored. After I put down my initial deposit. I was ignored for so many weeks, I was beginning to think the company was fake. Draftsman never asked a single question. Not a good look when each round of revisions are charged by the number of changes. My final payment was requested before receiving house plans. Payment was sent and plans were immediately provided despite never having discussed or seen electrical and plumbing, etc. There was an error on the final plans and it took an act of Congress to get it changed. To be fair the final product was excellent but the ulcers I developed over this whole process would make me rethink using Evolution."

Cummins Architecture and Design is your best choice in Southern California for architecture and design services. We work hard to build positive experiences for our customers. Our family of brands are currently serving the Southern California coastal areas from north Orange County to San Diego, inland regions, and the San Bernardino national forest including Lake arrowhead and Big Bear. We want you to be our next raving reference.
"Do not use these guys. If you read the reviews the last few years they have gone down hill. We started this project 03/2020. I had to request that they stop working on my project 05/2021. They made several submittals to the city of Rancho Cucamonga starting off with the wrong department, and every submittal has been marked incomplete and incorrect. The city has rejected each submittal. Before you even think of using this firm contact the California Architecture Board (CAB). There is a formal investigation into incompetence and violations from this firm. Over a year and close to $20K and i have nothing except an incomplete error filled job package that the city can not use. And now he wants another $16k to close the job. They can not even keep track of payments that have been made to their firm. Dale claims the project is 90% complete, what was submitted was 50% short of the requirements. If I were to pay the $16k I would be paying him more than the contracted price of a completed project. He has even threatened to put a lien on my property. Do your homework, read all of the reviews, contact me through yelp if you have an hour or two to hear of all the issues i have had with this guy. Contact the board. But Run, Run, Run away."

Typically, it’s more affordable to buy an existing home than it is to build a new one. New construction loan interest rates tend to be higher than interest rates for traditional mortgages. Additionally, the cost of materials is likely higher when building a new home than it was when an existing home was built (unless it’s a very new one). You’re also paying for all new appliances, finishes, permits, inspections, and connections for water, gas, and electricity.
One starting point to find a local home builder is to collect suggestions from friends and neighbors. However, it’s still wise to do some more research before you hire a builder. Read reviews to supplement any word-of-mouth recommendations. Check sources like Angi that have standards and criteria in place to screen the pros it lists can also help you find more reputable local home builders.
The average price per square foot to build a house is about $150 per square foot. Overall, the cost to build a house ranges anywhere from $100 to $500 per square foot, depending on where you build. The primary cost factors include location, size, and style of house you build.
The average cost to hire an architect for your home project ranges between $2,200 and $10,500. However, depending on location and project type, you might end up paying as little as $600 or as much as $45,000 or more. For example, the average cost of hiring an architect in North Carolina is between $1,800 and $2,000, but in California, that price tag jumps to $3,600 to $15,200.
The price you pay for your architect also depends on their experience level. For example, a principal architect, the firm's owner, typically charges $150 to $250 per hour. However, an intern architect with three to five years of experience usually only charges $45 per hour.
Knowing if you need an architect for your project can be tricky, especially if you've never worked with one before. In general, small remodeling projects like replacing fixtures typically don't require the expertise of an architect. However, larger projects, like moving walls or adding an addition to your home, should include an architect to ensure the project is structurally sound.
