“I contacted The Building Permit Guy to help me work through the hurdles of renovating a rental property (house) in Hamilton.

“Joel was amazing to work with. He got right into my head and created a home that met and exceeded my expectations. He was very insightful right from the beginning, from home placement on the lot to making the home appealing and functional. Joel was a wealth of information and provided me with not only products to choose from but an endless list of quality tradesmen to help with the project. The house is going to be featured in Canadian Homes and Cottages in October 2012.”
Richard Krynicki Residential Design
Architects & Building Designers in Selkirk.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars11 March 2018
“My wife and I have worked with Richard on several projects, from a bedroom addition to cottage retreat and finally art studio transformation. We keep coming back to Richard, because in addition to his architectural problem-solving skills we always know that we can count on his creativity, attention to detail, and excellent project management abilities. From the beginning design consultations to product selection and placement, no detail is overlooked and Richard's own enthusiasm for our projects almost seemed to eclipse our own. Richard's attention to detail begins with the first client meeting, making sure that he understands your vision above all else before he ever picks up his pencil to create. In working for us, he helped transform an attic space of our home into a stunning master suite, bringing transitional elegance that gave needed spark to our space, while respecting the historic integrity of our century home. Later, when we bought our northern getaway, he transformed the drafty, characterless barn of a building that we had purchased, into a truly one-of-kind masterpiece that was at once a home, and at home in its setting. Later, I came to know Richard as an artisan supplier on some of his projects. Through this I experienced his attention to the overall project vision and client expectations from behind the scenes. And, like any good conductor, he made sure that all of the contractors on the project were in tune and playing together, so that the final melody was harmonious and advanced to the final vision and to the client's ultimate delight. I would have no hesitation recommending Richard for any project, from the mundane to the marvelous.”

Architects & Building Designers in Selkirk.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars10 December 2020
“I contacted Jordan out of the blue regarding a house that I was buying and was planning to convert into a legal duplex. All I can say is that that the service I received from Jordan was unmatched. He was incredibly responsive, professional and thorough. It was clear that he had amazing knowledge and experience in this area, and as a new investor in Hamilton, I has happy to have him on my side. If you’re an investor you should have him on speed dial.”

“I am very happy and pleased with Jeronimo's work. He is eager and enthusiastic to get the job done to a high standard. Highly recommended.”
Cynthia Zahoruk Architect Inc.
Architects & Building Designers in Selkirk.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars19 October 2014
“When we first approached Cynthia about our project, we had no idea how far she would take our concept. Transforming the exterior of a Georgian style house into a contemporary, Asian-themed one was challenging but Cynthia had the vision necessary to meet that challenge. Cynthia listened to our ideas and requirements and, taking into account our "wish list", created a brilliant design. When she initially presented us with her plan, we were pleasantly surprised, as it went well beyond our original vision. The front entry courtyard, in particular, was a stunning addition! We were very comfortable working with Cynthia who was always professional, approachable and receptive to our input throughout the process. She worked well with our contractor, helping to iron out difficulties as they arose and ensuring that the design was never compromised. We would recommend Cynthia without hesitation.”
Structured Creations Inc.
Architects & Building Designers in Selkirk.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars12 May 2012
“Darren and the team at Structured Creations were a dream to collaborate with. When we took our 100 year old home to the brick, Darren guided us through returning it to a neo Art Deco look. And long after the design phase was over, he kept in touch and helped us overcome any obstacles during construction. It was reassuring to have a calm and knowledgeable expert on our side who appreciated the importance of attention to detail on such an extensive renovation.”

An architect or building designer in Selkirk, ON can transform your needs and desires into a visual concept and habitable structure. They will help you determine what is possible in terms of your land and the budget you have, and then work with you to plan a home design that best caters to your lifestyle.

Architects and building designers have an extensive knowledge of architectural designs and trends, as well as construction methods and building materials, and are well versed in seeing the ‘bigger picture’. Depending on the architecture firm you hire, their scope of work can span project management and sustainable design for your renovation, to the selection of furniture and finishes. So whether you’re building from scratch, adding an extension or renovating your Selkirk, ON home, engage an architect or building designer to make your dream home a reality.

How do I find the best architect for my home design project?


It is best to hire a home architect or building designer who will be involved in all phases of the design process, from the initial concept to the completed construction. The architect is often the first person you will hire for your project. If necessary, they might also help you select and hire Selkirk, ON general contractors, which can include builders, engineers and landscape architects. Interior architects are also involved in negotiating contracts for all involved participants. It is for these reasons that it is extremely important for you to have a good relationship with the residential architect you hire. He or she can be the tie-breaking vote between you and the general contractor and can be your biggest advocate during the construction process.

As far as the process goes, the architecture firm that you choose will start with concept drawings and finish with construction drawings and documents. Some firms even design with 3D renderings and videos, but that should not be assumed. One of the most important duties of an architect is project management – that is, to serve as managers and supervise most aspects of construction, as well as facilitate communication between all other contractors.

It is very important to hire the right professional for the job. Remember that the most well-known or established architect or building designer might not provide the best architectural services for your needs. It all comes down to the individual project. Research and ask people whose work you like for recommendations. It's important to have an idea of the style of architecture you prefer, as well as the amount you would like to spend. Architects are natural problem solvers. They will assess the entire situation and help you to solve your problems too. Don't settle for a single company too early. Call and interview a few. Make sure that you feel like your personalities will mesh well and that you like their professional perspective.

Questions to ask prospective architects and building designers in Selkirk, ON:


  • What is your fee structure?
  • What does the cost include?
  • Do you have professional liability insurance?
  • What types of renderings (3D, video, illustrative) will you produce?
  • What is your experience with similar projects?
  • When do you expect to start and be finished with the project?
  • What do your services include? (It's best that the services are until construction is completed.)
  • What happens when the cost exceeds the budget?
  • Can you provide me with references?
  • Would you say your work has a defining style? (This is important in case the architect's personal style will interfere with
  • your vision.)
  • Will you help with hiring general contractors and renovation contractors?
  • What do you estimate the cost will be?
  • What will I need to provide?
  • Are there any complications you foresee with this project?
