"I got fined because a Rock Wall contractor messed me up by telling me a permit was not needed so I had to pay a big fine. A friend recommended Aaron Shimizu Architecture company who was quite knowledgeable. Aaron was quite easy to talk to and made me relax by explaining the process he was quite knowledgeable He explained the steps and started the process for the new permit very quickly and as we progressed his staff kept me in the loop. I became very relaxed because of his experience. I got my legal permit after the process was finished. If I have any problems again I will definitely call Aaron he is a smart man."

"Carlos was very professional when he came to do the site visit. We went over details over my small project. He submitted his proposal the next day. Only reason I didn t select him was his price was almost triple the amount of the other five proposals I received, for the same work. Now only time will tell if it was the correct decision, but based on how small my job is, I felt it wasn t worth the price proposed. I think his price is more for commercial projects. Good luck!"

"Kyle Ikeda Recommendation Kyle has been a very pleasant and personable craftsman to work with. The first time he came to the house to do an estimate he asked whether he needed to wear a mask or not and we told him we preferred he wear a mask when speaking with us. He did as we asked. He is very considerate and accommodating. He never forces his preferences on you. He makes expert and excellent professional and design suggestions but ALWAYS leaves the decisions to the home owner. During the estimating process he went over in detail the design options available to us, Making sure we understood the cost scale as he presented each option based on the current structure of the bathroom and its present features that is appealing and we should consider keeping. He was also very honest about whether certain ADA compliant features need to be adhered to. He also discussed with us the plusses and minuses of safety features to consider given our age. We decided on two design options based on ours and his valuable input and asked him to quote both options. He produced quotes for both options within two weeks. He then followed his quotes with a face to face meeting discussing in detail what was and was not included in each quote. Once we decided on which option to go ahead with, we then went into more detail on the specific hardware and tile to be selected. His extensive portfolio of previous remodels helped us greatly in choosing the hardware, size, color and tile pattern options to possibly use. At this stage Kyleʻs extensive experience and master craftsman experience was invaluable. During the remodeling process he reviewed daily what was done and what he was planning to do the next day. What we also appreciated about Kyle is that he is a very organized and neat professional, he cleans up at the end of each day. If Kyle sees an issue in the original design due to the tiles or hardware we chose or modifications he needed to make, in order to make the overall design look more appealing he will stop, consult with us before implementing any changes. His artistic skills come into play here and again his suggestions led us to make the whole project look so much better than we had envisioned. One time we noticed a bad variation in the tiles from the same box he had already set. He had just left the house 15 minutes ago and We called him about it. He turned around and came immediately back to the house and removed the offending tiles and reset it with tiles that matched. This illustrates how accommodating he is and how he will go out of his way to please the homeowners. In summary we very very highly recommend Kyle Ikeda as a master bathroom remodeler. He has excellent design and artistic skills and his recommendations based on his extensive experience and portfolio are right on. His communication skills are excellent and he involves the homeowners in all aspects of the remodel from the design phase to the final remodeling phase. The quality of his work is exquisite. The tile work is immaculate and the installation of our unique shower system was completed without a hitch. The pan was installed perfectly with no pooling and the water all flows to the drain. All the plumbing, electrical, carpentry, and tile work was done by a single person, Kyle Ikeda himself. No subcontractors are involved to cause scheduling holdups. Our renovation was completed on time in 3 weeks total, from tear down to completion. If you want a master remodeler with all the skills needed to do your perfect remodeling job, hire Kyle Ikeda."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

It is not recommended to cut or drill into LVL (laminated veneer lumber) beams. As major structural components of a home, their composite structure can be compromised by alterations, which can weaken them and lead to cracking over time. If you must make modifications to an LVL beam, it is crucial to consult a structural engineer or general contractor first. A professional can advise on whether it's safe and provide specifics on the appropriate bit size, depth, and directionality for any necessary drilling.

A structural engineer’s report is almost always worth it, as it can help you avoid buying or overpaying for a home with structural issues. The most important thing the report does for you is provide peace of mind that you won’t have to pay thousands of dollars for structural repairs right after closing on a property.

A split-level home is one that has several staggered floors connected by short staircases, while a split floor plan separates the primary bedroom from the rest of the bedrooms. Split floor plans are most often found in single-story homes, while split-level homes are always at least two stories.

The costs depend on the type of wood, labor, roofing material, permits, and whether additional storage or enclosed walls are included.

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them.
