Architect suggestions
 

We are considering creating an additional bath and washer/dryer room in an area between two wings of our home. There is not a lot of space and there is a change in the roof that will be required along with structural support issues. It is complicated for what otherwise would be a small project. We tend to think we need an architect first but maybe a contractor who is good with layouts like this would be appropriate. Any suggestions for a local architect or a builder?

Architect
 

We used Robert Lagram of Organix Design in Melvin Village. We did new construction and we were quite pleased. He is very easy to work with and very creative. He also does contracting and knows his way around building tools...so you won't see that common disconnect between architects and the reality of building. He has done building and remodeling with his own hands.

Hello,

My name is Scott Compton of Scott Compton Builders. It would be a pleasure speaking with you about your project. I reside in Meredith and have been operating in the lakes region for 21 years. We are a general contracting company that have completed numerous large and small projects using archhitects and/or structural engineers. Your particular project from your description sounds to me you only need to have beams and point loads determined/speced out with an experienced design. Feel free to contact me if you wish to discuss your project further at 603-279-1029.

There is well known builder currently working at I believe #170 Black Cat Island.
You may want to take down his information and give him a call.
His sign is on the tree in front of the house.

We also used Robert Lagram of Organix Design in Melvin Village. We did a complete renovation and addition of our cottage on Whortleberry Island. Robert was excellent as was our builder Jonathan Tolman. We would be happy to have you take a look at our cottage when ice out occurs.

Architect - Updates
 

Would like an update to this thread Re: Architect Suggestions. Looks like the last posted is dated in 2013. The phone number I came across for Organix Design is no longer in service.

Does anyone have experience with an Architect recently?

Thank you:)

I know Robert Lagram is still working out of Melvin Village. He may have changed his phone number. He is presently doing a job on Pistol Island, just west of the Graveyard.

Whether an architect or a builder or both.
Make sure you state exactly what you want.
Then review all.

There are never enough electrical outlets both inside and outside.
Exterior lighting.
Security cameras. Wire for such even if you don't have current plans. The wiring during construction is cheap.
Home theater wiring if there is going to be a television in any of these rooms.
They don't sell televisions today with a speaker in the front.
Low voltage wiring. Cat5e or Cat6. RG6.

"Everything is wireless now."
I had a neighbor tell me. And after construction of new home he wanted to install some webcams. Well, the wireless webcams he looked at all required an electrical outlet. He didn't put any in where he wants the webcams.
