"Contacted SJW to do a structural analysis on a cantilever balcony I was adding to my home. The analysis was required by the Livingston County Building Commission. Even though I was just a homeowner and probably will never require a structural engineer in the future, Steven treated me with respect. We spent a lot of time on the phone going over my prints and options to achieve my goal. Steven was very informative and knowledgeable. What a great experience and people to work with⠦⠦ Thanks Steven!!!!!!"

"We hired Dave to look at our house(2/2019) before removing a load bearing wall, and are extremely happy with the structural integrity of our home after following his advice. He gave us a detailed plan that was easy to follow, and we were able to meet our goals with his knowledge. He was very professional and easy to work with."

"Excellent! Prior to the work Bob was prompt to respond to my emails. Bob showed up on time and was fully prepared. His work was thorough (paying attention to detail), consistent, and completed the work in a timely manner. In addition, Bob was courteous and helpful in answering any questions. I would hire Bob again in the future for needed work, as well as, I would recommend Bob to customers."

"Dwight did a great job of taking on basic concept and turning it into a 3d drawing of our house."

"They did a wonderful job. Cleaned up afterwards really well.

If you're looking for an architectural designer who brings more than textbook knowledge to the table, you're in the right place. With over 40 years in the construction industry—as a builder, designer, and business owner—I’ve developed a deep, hands-on understanding of how homes are truly built. Every project, challenge, and collaboration has shaped how I approach design today. That experience allows me to design residential projects that go beyond the blueprint, grounded in practical insight and a lifetime of lessons learned on the job.
