    #45 Understanding Architects, Engineers & Builders in Home Construction! Who actually designs your home?
    Jul 18 2025
    Ever wondered who actually designs your home and who makes it stand up?

    In this episode, host Ryan McNeil, President of Stonewater Homes with over 20 years of custom homebuilding experience, breaks down the real-world roles of architects, engineers, and builders.

    You’ll learn how most homes are really designed, what engineers are responsible for, and why professional builders often lead the entire process from concept to construction.

    Whether you're planning a new build or just curious how a custom home goes from paper to reality, this episode will clarify how these three roles work together and where they don’t.

    This episode is best experienced visually on YouTube or Spotify video.

    Topics covered include: • Why most builders don’t use architects for single-family homes
    • What engineers actually approve (and when they’re required)
    • How builders manage materials, trades, and timelines
    • The difference between “designing” and “executing” a plan

    🎧 Tune in to understand how homebuilding really works before you start your next project.
