Every architectural design project is going to have different results, but here are a few things to check for once any architectural design company has told you they've finished the job:

  • Ask the architect to describe what they did. Whether your architectural design project was a repair job or a building job, have them run you through what was done.
  • Compare the description provided on your architectural design project estimate to the work completed. Did the professional do what was promised?
  • Request that the architect do a follow-up visit to check on the work. Most professionals are willing to do this, especially if you ask them.
