"He came to house I game him arch. plans of bath and closet he came back with no drawings and no plans - said he had to take pictures.(for what??) As I recall he took pictures the first time too. I finally called to get my original plans back. He lives in Santa Fe and works often in Albuquerque. I drove to Albuquerque and met him in the parking lot of UPS, about 35 miles from my home.and he gave me several computer generated drawings with only open rack shelves where i have cabinets with doors and open rack shelves for entire closet- no room for hanging clothes. switched toilet and bidet so that door would be blocked by toilet. He was very nice and the three areas of drywall repair look good. I am expecting to use the $$ I paid via Angie promotional will cover the drywall."
