This person lacks the credentials of an interior designer or an architect but is considered an expert in designing a project.

"Excellent workers, they left my house like new. Changed my floor, remodeled my bathrooms, I liked it because of their fast work. The kitchen was also remodeled and done very well. I recommended them to my neighbors, they worked well too!"

"I hired Paul to guide me through the ridiculously complicated permitting process in DC for repairing an existing exterior stairway in a historic district. Before engaging with Paul, the city was telling me I needed to demolish the stairs and rebuild them to code. I worked with an architect and it became clear that it was impossible to bring them up to code. Still, the city refused to back down and said the stairs couldn't be repaired. I then hired Paul, who recommended a number of improvements that would make the stairs safer without demolishing them, created a report, and then convinced the city with all of the relevant code citations. It became clear that Paul was far more knowledgeable than the city officials of their own regulations. While the process was still a labyrinth to navigate, Paul helped me overcome every hurdle that the city placed in front of me. I highly recommend Paul. I wouldn't have been able to get this work done without his expertise and his advocacy for me."

bluehouse architecture focuses on the interactive and collaborative design process working with both the owner to create a project that satisfies and exceeds expectations. Working with the owner to gain an understanding of his needs and requirements and communicating with the contractor to identify a solution that is possible within the work space are critical components of this process. This involves more than simply developing architectural drawings. Rather, from the beginning of a project, bluehouse develops a solid relationship based upon open communication among all parties. bluehouse actively guides the client through all the stages of design, from the initial meeting where the project parameters are defined, through creating the schematic design and developing completed construction/permit drawings.

"I came to Melissa & Bluehouse a number of years ago as I couldn't visualize the layout to accomplish my goals in what began as a kitchen remodel. Melissa's impeccable handling of my project from the word "go" is nothing but an understatement! Each and every detail I listed from want's & desires to fears & concerns were addressed. Living up to her word every step of the way, Melissa addressed my list while pointing out elements I hadn't thought of. She was aware of my limits and not only kept her bottom line under control, but she didn't design anything out of our budget. Considering we were on track to break ground in the spring of 2020, when Covid hit & supply chains derailed our start, Melissa was poised to do whatever needed to be done. In the end, rising costs & limited supply led us to delay construction until Jan. '23. As a TV news producer, I'm a tough cookie, and yet when I had questions, Melissa answered them honestly and often with visuals to help me understand what I needed to learn. I appreciated her teamwork attitude when working with the Structural Engineers let alone my amazing contractor! Melissa's perfectionism is the reason not one single measurement needed to be modified in what became not just a kitchen remodel, but a 1st-floor remake with our addition going both upstairs & down. When you consider who to hire, consider this, as a newswoman, I interview 3 people for every job, I don't cut corners and nothing gets swept under the rug. Melissa is THAT kind of pro! She is going to do right by you, because she knows what is at stake, and she is only going to put her name on something she stands behind. For that, and a million little reasons, without question, if I had another project, I'd hire her in a heartbeat!"

Merrium Websters defines a Milestone as [an action or event marking a significant change or stage in development.] As a Multi-generational company, we know very well about the things in life that are truly significant. Family matters. After that, one of the biggest markers in life is changing your home to suit a new vision or need - or simply moving to a place to start the next chapter in your life. As you walk your path, Milestone Builders can go side-by-side with you, without compromise in care, quality, or craftsmanship. Similarly, design and function are never compromised in order to bring the beauty of a catalog worthy home that is still liveable for you, yours, and your guests.

We dream in color and challenge the assumption of conventional space; we look beyond the obvious for unique and tailored solutions. Besides traditional design and construction, we have successfully utilized a hybrid building system which combines custom designed modular components, prefabricated wall/floor/roof panels and field-built construction for both new construction and additions. We provide comprehensive, creative design services for residential, small commercial and religious clients in Maryland, Virginia and Washington DC. Every project is personal for the Client, it's personal for us as well. We look forward to the opportunity to be of service.

"Berny is a very nice and professional person to work with. He is very knowledgeable at what he knows in the architect world and is on point with what he does. Berny is very thorough and his work is absolutely perfect when done and completes his work in a timely manner. I highly recommend Berny to do your work and I am very 5 stars satisfied with Berny Hintz."

Building design services FAQs

In most cities, you’re required to have a building permit in order to construct a pool house on your property. The exact type of permit varies by region—in some areas, it might cost as much as $2,700 to get the necessary permits, while other cities don’t require any permits for structures under 200 square feet.

If you’re building a custom pool house, you can expect the entire process to take two to three months from the design phase to the end of construction, or even as much as a year for very large or complex pool houses. If you’re installing a prefabricated kit or shed, the process is much faster—usually one to three days.

Most pool houses can range from 100 square feet to 800 square feet. Smaller pool houses are about 100 to 150 square feet, while a spacious pool house is at least 300 square feet.
