VRABEL ARCHITECTS

Steve was a pleasure to work with - extremely knowledgeable, professional, and communicative. You can tell Steve really wants to provide you the best product he can, while also being very respectful of your budget. We would definitely recommend Steve!

Steve Vrabel did a wonderful job designing and drafting our house remodel plans. We came to him with a vision in mind and problem areas for him to solve. What I especially appreciated was his adaptability on the process and promptness in execution. I wanted to be more involved in the design process and also needed a quick turn around time. Steve was very responsiveness throughout the entire process, we always felt like he valued our time and prioritized our project like he said he would. We absolutely love the end results and Steve was essential to making it happen.

Steve is amazing!! The remodel I was doing was for a couple that wanted to remodel the main floor of their home so they could age in place. Steve was hired to consult with us, provide the drawings and acquire a permit for the work. Everything went very smooth. He listened to the homeowners and recommended a floor plan that really took into consideration how they live now and how they plan to live in the future. He was able to quickly acquire the permit for the work and the homeowners love their "new" home. Steve is incredibly punctual and responsive, I highly recommend him. SSR - General Contractor

Wonderful. Worked with Steve on several concept designs then moved forward with selected option. Steve met all committed to dates and design passed city review on first submittal.

Steve delivered everything on time that he estimated. His prices are reasonable and he understands that we had a certain budget to achieve. We were very happy to work with him.

Steve helped us design an addition to our house. We added a living room, bedroom and turned an office room to a bathroom and small office space. We love Steve’s brilliant idea making every single space useful! Steve is very upfront with the costs and time frame so you don’t have to worry about unpleasant surprises. We have been referred Steve to our friends and family!

We found Steve & loved his work so we hired him to design our house renovation. Steve is great to work with! He's a great listener, very responsive, professional and easy to work with. We love his ideas and designs--the house is going to look wonderful when completed! He has a great grasp of permitting, details & city requirements. His modern yet traditional style is elegant and crisp. I would highly recommend using Steve for your next home or business renovation.

It could not have been easier. Steve is very easy to work with and was creative figuring out a way forward with the one place where we got hung up. He was always readily available and he was completely open to either to us having him submit the permit application or our submitting the permit ourselves. As it is, we submitted ourselves and the City reviewer accepted the plan set so readily you'd they had drawn it up themselves.

Steve was excellent to work with. I had some vague ideas what I wanted, he turned them into reality. He did a lot of research and provided a lot of ideas. He thinks outside the box - I never would have come up with that floor plan myself. He pointed up real problems with some of my ideas, even though he was willing to incorporate them. It's just that those ideas weren't very workable. In other places it was very much a back-and-forth discussion. He'd suggest something, I'd expand on it, and he'd finish it off - or I'd suggest something and he'd expand on it, etc. He was open to changes and worked very hard to craft something that met my wild-eyed expectations. It's easy to draw something, but harder to design something that works in real life. Once it was built, it was easy to see the wisdom of his ideas. It's obvious he brings a lot of real-world experience to the job. The plans he provided were thoroughly detailed, easy to read, and the builders had no problem understanding what was required. I would definitely hire Steve again for my next project.

What a professional. Though he was so busy he said he couldn't work on my project for several months, he offered to spend as much time on the phone with me as I wanted, recommended me to another architect, and said that I could call him any time I had questions. I really appreciate the generous offer. Time is valuable! I hope one day to work with Mr. Vrabel.
