“You name it and Todd probably helped us when we were doing major construction and redesigning of our new home. We bought a 50 year old home that had great "bones" but was in desperate need of some TLC and then some. Todd was the first person we called after we walked thru the first time with our realtor. He was the first person we called after we talked to our contractor. He was the first person we called when all the work was done and it was time to pick colors, cabinets and furniture. He was part of every decision we made and was an absolute pleasure to work with. Nine times out of ten when someone compliments something in our home - it is something that Todd contributed!!! He made our new house a home and he was worth every penny.”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars15 July 2023
“T.R. Hudson services are top notch. Thad was prompt and extremely talented. I highly suggest using his design service. I would use their services in future for any design process. He designed my detached garage based on a phone conversation. With little adjustment it was spot on. Highly recommend.”

“My husband and I live in a home built about 1840. Our kitchen was old and charming with outdated and non-functioning appliances. We decided to look at updating but realized the layout did not work well so we opted to do a new kitchen. After trips to several kitchen planning services we reached out to Neeka Groves with RG Architects. She looked at the rough plan we had drawn up and pointed out a number of shortcomings. As a result of her input we saw several possibilities that were not obvious to us. There were a number of constraints but Neeka led us through the design process with great professionalism and I have to add, patience. Every step of the way she was there to listen, to advise, to point us to products and vendors, and to reassure us with a smile whenever things went south as can happen in 180 year old homes . The end product was a dream come true and I am certain our kitchen would not be what it is without her design, guidance, and oversight. We would offer our highest recommendation to Neeka Groves and RG Architects.”
Truoba LLC
Architects & Building Designers in Delaware.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars27 October 2023
“We have just finalized custom house plans from Truoba. We plan to break ground in the Spring of 2024. The architects that we worked with from Truoba were excellent. They had fantastic ideas, concise communication, and responded very quickly to our requests for changes. We love their modern aesthetic, attention to detail, and professionalism. We love their stock plans, but with the layout of our lot, we decided that a custom plan made more sense. We know that we have an amazing plan, that fits our lot, our needs/wants, and at a very reasonable price point. We highly recommend Truoba.”

It is often said when you're building a house, you’re building a dream. An architect or master of building design can make your dream house a reality. Architects can help you design and redesign spaces of your home or focus on helping you build your own house from the ground up. Architectural firms have extensive knowledge of architectural design and building materials, and a strong appreciation of ergonomics – warmth, light, and flow within a property. As you search through architects and building designers in Delaware, keep in mind the following tips to help you choose the perfect one:

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


When building or renovating your home, you don't simply hire an architect or building designer — you build a relationship with them. Be sure you chose a home architect who will be involved in all phases of the design process, from the initial concept to the completed construction. Architecture is an incredibly technical profession and one where getting things wrong can literally put lives at risk, so ensure you hire a professional with a valid license or an architectural firm to maintain high quality and standards. Your next consideration will be architectural style. Some residential architects specialise in designing traditional homes or farmhouses, others in designing modern replicas of traditional homes. While a few have a knack for imagining bolder, more futuristic architectural design in Delaware that incorporates the latest technology.

Once you have frozen on the architect or building designer, chat through your goals, projected budget, scope of work, schedule and any other specific requirements you might have. Ask them to walk you through the process, including the number of architectural design consultations, site visits and what they will be delivering and when, e.g. feasibility study, a technical drawing, tender package and/or planning application drawings. Also, get a sense of whether they are a good listener, collaborator, and problem solver. Finally, be sure to find out what the architect needs from you,deeds, rights of way, deposit, staged payments and so on.

How much does hiring an architect in Delaware cost?


Home construction and renovation often have a preset budget and hence it is important to understand how much architects charge. While there is no set payment structure, independent architects may charge differently from architectural firms. Architects sometimes choose to calculate their fees on the basis of a per square foot rate. In rare cases, especially with smaller projects, Delaware architects may choose to ask their clients for a fixed fee. Make sure the total figure and payment schedule is agreed as part of your contract, particularly if you are trying to accurately estimate the cost of building a house.


Questions to ask prospective Delaware architects:


  • What types of renderings (3D, video, illustrative) will you produce?
  • Who will be working on my project? (This is very important if you hire an architectural firm)
  • What is your fee structure?
  • What does the cost include?
  • Can you handle my special requests?
  • What is your experience with similar projects/ architectural design and style?
  • 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 a general contractor and other subcontractors?
  • What do you estimate the cost will be?
  • Are there any complications you foresee with this project?
  • What will I need to provide?
