"We had our kitchen and primary suite renovated by Jamaal and his team at Yusra Design and we couldn't be happier with the decision. We really wanted a cohesive process of design phase through the build and the team was beyond our expectations on delivering exactly that. Through the entire process we were in great hands and the communication was excellent. They executed on the timeline that was communicated from the start of the process and the quality of the work and materials was top notch. We love both of our new spaces and would recommend Yusra to anyone that is looking for a competent and thorough team to help build their dream space."

"Curtice Group to the rescue! This was our second project with the Scott, Eric, and crew after they did our amazing kitchen remodel. We needed our basement bathroom fixed after a previous contractor back-pitched all the piping. I truly can't say enough good things about them: they were transparent with pricing, extremely communicative about what work would happen when, and efficient! We're finally able to use our bathroom for the first time in 3 years. I truly don't think I can hire anybody else but the Curtice Group for any home renovation project."

"Alan Taylor is a horrible professional to work with. We hired him as an architect for our project and regretted it bitterly. Alan caused numerous delays, exploiting the fact that we simply were dependent on him once the design was approved by Boston building department. Each interraction with Alan took forever and his endless requests to get directly in touch with various committees, professionals working on the project, were absolutely not necessary, exclusively justifying Alan's overbilling. I will give 2 examples: my son was scammed out of $11k when he maid a payment to Alan, who then insisted that it was not him giving the bank info for money transfer, but hackers of his email. It took my son 4 months to get the money back, thanks to his bank, with Alan demanding a full payment over and over again, which resulted in almost 6 months delay. At the final stage of the project,while preparation of the condo association documents, Alan had to prepare as is building plan. One does not need to be an architect to realize that 1 site visit for measurements and max a couple of hours to review the engineering plans and add 8 annotations should not take 2.5 months and be billed $3680. I would strongly encourage everyone to stay away from this person."

"Great, Dave stayed within our budget and our addition looks like it was part of a whole new home construction. We were really impressed with Dave Kinsella's design concepts and the workmanship was high quality even though we were on a tight budget. Dave comes from a big family so he understands money and time constraints plus he wants his projects to look as aesthetically pleasing to his clients as possible. We would definitely hire Dave again."

"Marc Hershman is a wonderful architect! He was so easy to work with and offered great ideas for how to improve the house spatially so that the flow of the floor plan(on the first floor) became more aesthetic and efficient. Marc worked tirelessly in the extreme heat of the summer to achieve precise measurements of every inch of the house. His detailed plans were drawn beautifully and accurately and explained articulately in our first meeting. We appreciated Marc's follow up visits to ensure that the construction was done properly and according to plan. Marc related to the contractor in a positive and professional manner. Overall, Marc was always professional and prompt. We found his pricing to be extremely reasonable- great value for the dollar! We would definitely work with him again and highly recommend Marc Hershman to anyone in need of high-quality architectural services."

FAQs for drafting or cadd service projects in Boston, MA

Architectural drafting includes roofing. Some professionals who work at roofing manufacturing or installation companies may only work on roofing and cladding components.

A floor plan is a simplified drawing of the layout of rooms on one floor of a home. These are usually created by designers for arranging furniture and appliances. These are not technical drawings or blueprints and should not be used in place of them.

Draughtsman is simply the European spelling of draftsman. The terms are interchangeable.

If you have a complete design idea for a residential property and either you or your contractor employs an engineer, you can hire a draftsman to make your design into usable technical drawings. This is typical for simple additions and remodels like adding a bathroom, finishing a basement or adding a garage.

Traditionally, blueprints are technical drawings in white on blue paper. The term is now used interchangeably with any type of digital construction plan. Classic blueprints are still in use for older homes. Drafters translate these paper plans into digital representations when remodeling or adding on to older homes.

Little similarities exist between draftsmen, engineers and designers. They all complement and often work on teams with each other.

  • Drafter – creates technical drawings from design ideas. Usually works for engineers, designers and architects.

  • Engineer – designs and oversees the technical aspects of a construction project. Where an architect thinks of design aspects, the engineer works on making it a reality. They are mostly concerned with environmental issues and meeting all codes and regulations for the safety aspects of the project. They also manage projects.

  • Designer – only concerned with the visual aspects of a project. They often create their own technical drawings though sometimes work in conjunction with engineers, architects and draftspersons.
