Entire process has been a nightmare, from the time he stepped foot in my home he was extremely arrogant. What we discussed for a plan, was not what was delivered, and he did not listen to what I had asked for. Despite me trying to explain things, he was insistent and spoke to me like I had no idea what I was talking about because I was a woman. Extremely challenging to work with, was paid in full and then when my contractor contacted him to ask questions he was extremely arrogant and defensive. Billed for more than agreed upon after the job was completed and had receipt saying paid in full. Felt that he tried to take full advantage because I was a woman, and he thought I didn’t know. Perfect example of when a woman takes her car to a mechanic and gets taken advantage of. Actually had to pay to use a new engineer/architect after paying him because it was that inconvenient. Very unprofessional, would never recommend. More...

It was a true pleasure to work with this team! They maintained seamless communication the entire way through, were thorough in their explanations and maintained the utmost professionalism. There wasn’t a day when I didn’t get an answer to my many questions. Minuta and the team successfully navigated the Newburgh compliance department and made sense of the previous home owners unclosed permits so we could move forward. We received precise architectural drawings and all is well. Permits are in hand. Thank you thank you for putting an end to a 2 year ordeal. More...

We worked with Minuta Architecture when we needed architecture plans for our prior-built basement in Newburgh. Jason Lichwick was our contact and he did an exceptional job at the large and small details to make this an easier process than most experience with prior-built basements. Everyone, from the receptionist Eileen, to Joe Minuta himself, were professional, friendly, and prompt with their work and correspondence. A big thank you to Jason Lichwick and the team at Minuta Architecture for a job well-done. More...

Q&As

Determine how you want the space to function.
We filed visit and survey the space and obtain details of its construction. Will the space meet minimum ceiling height and other requirements?
Draw the existing conditions and then develop the space for what you want it to be. Design heating and cooling for the space and make sure you have enough insulation and doors and windows meet U-value to ensure thermal compliance. We get your approval that the project is how you wanted to be. Then we finalize the drawings for permitting and procurement of a contractor. We can assist in the construction process by approving pay applications, answering questions of the drawings and designing around discovered field conditions. For more information just ask.

When you love your job you never work a single day in your life. I don't know who originally said this but it's true. I love my profession and enjoy every aspect of it.
