Senga Architects Inc.

I am pleased of the outcome of this firm of designers and you will be too very polite people and know their job and will give his name and company to others friends of mind that might have the similar problem and want an Architect professional. He was punctual every day to complete the job very patience with me in doing the design and helping with finding the right people to work with our plans. The entire job was done with patience and skills and he has a wonderful professional attitude with doing a fantastic job. The job went better than I expected because Mr. Senga was a wonderful person to work with and you will find out when you meet him and his work will also speak for itself.

Firmin is a pleasure to work with. He is professional, responsive, and he helped me immensely by creating a set of drawings for a condo renovation. He came over to my house, discussed the project with me and made me realize that my design needed some adjustments. I was very grateful for this because I think I would not have liked it otherwise. He created the drawings on schedule and delivered by the agreed upon deadline. I would hire Senga Architects again without thinking twice.

Firmin did an excellent job of both drafting the plans and doing any necessary follow up work I needed. He was able to come out and meet with the city on site to address the questions they had. Both the stairs and attic were approved with ease.

Firmin was excellent to work with. Developed the needed drawings quickly and worked directly with the plan reviewer at our city to address questions/concerns and get our permits issued. A true professional

Awful Mr Senga came to the house and walked around and we agreed to a price. He continuously tried to get me to pay him more. He agreed to a certain date and passed the deadline, I asked him when I could expect to receive the plans, I got excuses and he became defensive. His first set of plans caused the city to delay the project because they couldn't understand what was happening. It appeared that a lot of the plans were on a template. On the first and second review the comments on some of the plan were told to be changed. We were required to completely redo the plans. I got nothing by excuses, he blamed me and city. The third review came back with more comments. Some comments were a repeat of the second review. Mr Sengas work is sloppy at best. I have never dealt with a more unprofessional architect in 8 years of flipping houses. He acted as if he was the boss. I learned that to get anything done I had to be stern with him. I had to micro manage the process which I find unprofessional. The city did the work for him by tell him what to do which was architector 101. The unbelievable comment was that he had written a rolled roof on a shingle roof. That is just one of a dozen 101 errors. I am forgiving for most things but not for basic errors. It is obvious that he is using unskilled interns and then not taking the time to careful review their work before submitting the product to me the customer. I paid him way to much. The city said we had to redraw they entire project and Mr Senga asked me for $2,000 to ad pain to misery. My partner had to leave so as to not blow a cork. He blamed me for everything. I texted him that the comments must be completed on Monday. His response was " I don't like you tone". My response was "What Tone". It is obvious his only interest is in making money. If you wish to have drama in you project than Mr. Senga is your man. He walked off the job. I have to hire a new Architect which I did in 5 minutes. He said good luck, I can't use his drawings, which I paid him money for. He said good luck your now going to be delayed will going through the whole process all over again. I will have to sue him for breach of contract. Which I will do on Monday. Attached are all the drawings that we gave Mr Senga. A nightmare of architect.

Excellent. No complains

It went pretty well! He understood me very good and gave me the perfect design i needed.

Mr Senga did an awesome job of designing my new complex appartement

Great! Quick and very knowledgable

The village of Downers Grove was demanding but Firmin helped us throughout the entire process, we were happy and satisfied with the service, my wife loves the house and all neighbor are saying that our house is the most beautiful house in the neighborhood.
