How to choose a home designer in Gretna

  • Ask how many revisions are included and how changes are billed.
  • Ask whether they'll coordinate with your builder and stay involved during construction.
  • Read reviews for communication and deadlines — the common complaints are slow drawings and scope creep.
  • Match the pro to the job — an architect for structural or complex work, a home designer for many remodels and additions.
  • Review a portfolio of built Gretna-area projects in your style and budget, not just renderings.
