We contacted Steve to extend our existing deck. Steve was incredibly responsive and professional. He came to our house, took a look at the deck and explained us the different options we had. Then, he came out again to take measurements.
From the measurements, it turned out that we could not get a permit for an extension because of safety regulation. Since we could not go ahead with the project, he gave us a HUGE discount on the work he already preformed.
We were extremely impressed. We are new-owners, and this is our first project. He made us really comfortable with the whole process. Definitively, we highly recommend Steve, and we won?t hesitate to hire him again for future projects.
Our home currently has 3 bedrooms upstairs and 3 bedrooms downstairs. Steve was able to design the upstairs remodel to a 2 bedroom area with a very large master suite, with a huge walk-in closet, and a very large master bathroom as we requested. He included a lighting and electrical plan as well.
Steve took into consideration our current and future desires in his plans, including designing in a way to simplify adding French doors to the future patio. He walked us through the existing space to help us understand where things would be placed and how things with flow. He was also able to talk to us about why/how to place furniture to accommodate the design.
We were very comfortable with Steve and able to allow him access to our home when we weren't hometo take the measurements. He was kind enough to ask how many pets we had so he could do a head count before leaving.
He was extremely fast in getting plans, details and updated plans to us. His plans were presented in PDF and hard copy in our meeting with him. The PDF's are a great lifesaver in sharing with other contactors.
Thank you Steve! We will see you as soon as we are ready to tackle the downstairs!
First, the design is visually beautiful and better than we hoped for when we started. We have had several neighbors comment that it is clear we hired a professional architect to handle the design.
Second, we wanted the porch rebuilt EXACTLY as it was when originally built 85 years ago. To the inch is it a perfect replica. This is particularly important on some of the wonder historic homes in the Seattle area.
Third, the permitting process in Seattle can be challenging, particularly in Environmentally Critical Areas. While I spent a great deal of time on this myself Steve produced an excellent plan set that required very few revisions. Further, the plan set required contributions from an Engineer, Geotechnical Engineer, Surveyor and a Landscape Architect. Steve combined all of this work into a comprehensive document that the city could approve and the builder could use.
Finally, professionally Steve and was easy to work with, detailed oriented, prompt and knowledgable. I would not hesitate to recommend Steve or hire him again.
construction to inspection. The project came out great - tremendously bright and spacious.
He was adept and amenable to working with us on our small projects and small budgets. We would not hesitate to recommend Steve.
The finished result is absolutely beautiful.
