Custom renovations.

Kitchens, wall changes, garage conversions, and whole-house renovations, defined on paper first so every builder prices the same project.

Renovations PKAD designs.

  • Kitchen remodels

    Layout changes, larger kitchens without an addition, and wall removal, with permits handled from the start.

  • Moving or removing walls

    Structural changes planned with the architectural drawings, with engineering coordinated when the condition calls for it.

  • Garage conversions

    Living space designed around zoning, egress, and code upgrades the town will review.

  • Whole-house renovations

    A coordinated plan for the entire house, so each trade works from the same drawings.

The architect creates the common reference point.

Drawings settle the size, layout, structure, and approvals before construction is priced. Contractors, engineers, kitchen designers, and expeditors then work from the same project.

  • Comparable bids. Every builder prices substantially the same project.
  • Specialists in the right order. Kitchen and interior design develop from a reliable architectural framework.
  • Fewer surprises. Zoning and permit questions are answered before construction begins.
