Brett Schulz Architect

It went very well, Brett is very professional and easy to work with.  He adjusted to our schedule and gave us lot of option for the layout drawings for the future bedroom and bathroom in our basement.

We selected Brett because we liked his vision and felt he would be good to work with, and this was indeed the case.  Brett is a very personable, professional and imaginative architect.  What makes him special is that we found him to be a good listener.  He valued our ideas, heard our priorities, and incorporated them into the plans he came up with.  We had to scale down our plans half way through and he was as thoughtful in coming up with a modified scheme that would meet our financial goals without loosing out aesthetically. He was timely in the production of drawings and easily accessible when we had questions. He was accurate in estimating the total cost of his work, and fair and reasonable in billing us. 

He was very flexible and worked with us for many months while we tried to figure out exactly what we wanted in the plans.  Always willing to rework the plans and provided a lot of good feedback on our decisions.
Would definitely recommend.

Brett was outstanding in every aspect of his job. From the beginning, Brett was very responsive, and continued to be throughout the process. He listens attentively and quickly articulates your thoughts, ideas and preferences and converts them into working drawings saving you time and money. Although we had a good idea of what we wanted for design and keeping with the character of the house, Brett made several recommendations that we ultimately integrated, and they made all the difference. More and larger windows, wider doorways, and continuation of the roof line all resulted in the seamless extension of the existing structure balanced by equal scale inside and out. No matter how hard you look, you cannot distinguish old from new. Everything fits together well and is entirely functional.
 
Brett worked closely with the engineer, and was quick to facilitate any need that arose. When I went to the city to obtain permits, they knew Brett well and had the utmost respect for his work. Permits were issued over the counter in one day without issue.
I cannot emphasize enough how important to the outcome of a new-build/addition to a home or commercial structure the architect is. Brett is top tier. He responds quickly, produces high quality work, is very creative, listens well, and and has a great reputation among colleagues in the community. All of these things make him an outstanding value as an architect/designer.
 
My wife and I recommend Brett without reservation and intend to use him again.

Brett did an outstanding job on all phases of this project.  He is very efficient, and completed all of the design tasks in a very reasonable amount of time.  When issues have arisen during construction Brett has been more than willing to come out to the construction site and help us resolve the issues.  I would recommend Brett for any such job, and would gladly use his services again for future projects.

Brett was the only person who responded to my phone call on the same day (left messages with 4 others). He came to our workplace the following day to discuss our options with rebuilding a garage. Brett was very friendly, professional, and very punctual. We had the building plans back in less than a week! Unfortunately the project required too much "BS" from the governing authorities, so it was scrapped. I would definitely use this person again in the future

This was a large project and Brett Schulz and his time were there from the beginning to the end. The results were a tribute to the home, the property and to the community.
