CCD - Engineering and Design

Miguel is an amazing structural engineer and architect! He did the remodeling plans for our townhome in Marina Del Rey and we were very satisfied. Our HOA gave us a lot of trouble with our plans and they constantly needed to be revised and Miguel revised them speedily and efficiently. He was also very professional and patient with all of our changing needs. He explained things in a calm and informative way so we can fully understand what we can and can't do. He's extremely knowledgeable of city codes and policies. Highly recommended! Thanks Miguel!

He was very fair with his business approach and pricing structure.

Mike was prompt and easy to work with. A real pro.

He was very fair with his business approach. He was also excellent and delivered a timely job.

Mike Loayza, principal of CCD, was unprofessional and dishonest, based on our experience. We hired Mike to evaluate the structure of a hillside home before our purchase. He offered a written opinion that was the basis used for our negotiations with the seller, then no more than eight hours later changed his written opinion. Meanwhile, the opinion was already sent to the seller. When we asked Mike to come for a second visit to re-evaluate the property or explain the change in opinion (we would again compensate him for his time), he used the excuse that he was out of town, and didn't offer to accommodate us at a different time. We then had to hire someone else from another firm to start all over. Mike refused to give us a refund. We would not recommend using CCD and Mike Loyaza unless you enjoy wasting your time and money. He offered an opinion to take our money, but did not stand behind the opinion nor explain the change of opinion. In our view, Mike Loayza simply said what he needed to say in order to collect a check. If you hire him you will likely have no recourse. Don't take that risk.

I hired CCD to help me permit a structure that I built (Rooftop Deck) and then had a neighbor complain about, leading to lots of trouble and compliance issues. After getting some quotes (that were often 2-3 times what I ended up paying) I found CCD. Mike told me they have never failed to permit a single unpermitted structure... and 12 months later mine is another one of their success stories. I had them draw up the plans and the city approved his blueprints without a single correction which I understand is rare in Santa Monica. I am very satisfied with everything CCD did for me & would not hesitate to hire them again.

Professional and reasonably priced.
