About
Noah’s Architectural Control Committee
What are architectural guidelines? Architectural guidelines are a set of standards for architectural or exterior property modifications or improvements that homeowners must follow. The ARC bases its reviews on these written guidelines, which you can usually find within your association’s governing documents.
But, no two associations have the same set of guidelines. For instance, one HOA might only allow homeowners to paint their houses in certain shades of brown, while another might allow for more variety. It is essential to check your own architectural guidelines to learn what you can and can’t do with your property.
Another good example is solar panels. Because many solar panels don’t coincide with HOA architectural committee guidelines, some have taken steps to ban them totally. But, a number of states have already enacted solar access laws protecting homeowners’ rights to generate solar energy.
Some federal and state laws, though, prohibit or limit HOAs from certain architectural restrictions. For instance, according to the FCC’s OTARD Rule, associations can’t prohibit homeowners from installing satellite dishes or antennas. But, they can regulate things like placement and size.Board and ARC members must always keep up-to-date on the different federal and state laws that might affect the HOA. In doing so, they can safeguard the association from potential liability. Similarly, as a homeowner, you should familiarize yourself with these laws. This way, you can protect your rights.

What our clients say
Noah's ARC made the process efficient and fun. They walked us through the documents that supported the architecture my wife and I were looking for along with the right documents to allow the permitting and construction process to run smoothly. It's my pleasure to give them as high of a rating as I can.
David
These guys are true professionals. From the initial meeting and drawings through punch out lists and actual approval, Amanda and her staff were amazing. I'd 100% recommend using them for any project!
Michael
I cannot recommend Noah's ARC enough. They very graciously took on one very difficult project after another, even when my contractor resigned. I am beyond happy with the result. I know with Noah that the job has been done properly, as Zach, Corey, and all of their associates were able to communicate exactly what was being done, when, and why. The communication was unmatched.
Robert
I had an amazing experience with this company. The customer service was outstanding, and the product was exactly what I was looking for.
James
Had a great overall experience with Amanda as her team. Roxanna was very professional and knowledgeable of the codes. The plans for my remodel where approved and permitting was a breeze.
William
We've been working with Noah's ARC and they are honest, processional, easy to deal with... Bruce and a!!. of his team are amazing! We are privileged to work with this company.
Richard
We have built or renovated several homes in the past. When we acquired a condo in Fort Worth that required a total renovation, we found Noah's ARC to have the experience, professionalism and enthusiasm that we were looking for. From the very first meeting through the final walk through, we had been thoroughly impressed with them. Amanda showed the rare ability to quickly and fairly resolve any disputes, whether with ourselves, the city inspectors, the Condo Association, suppliers, or the sub- contractors. Quick and easy.
Joseph
Quick and concise communicators. Innovative and professional staff. Would do business with again.
Thomas

Charles
I worked with Noah on a renovation job and they were fantastic. I got exactly what I had envisioned for the home and they were a pleasure to work with. Thanks!
