It was such a simple claim (a burst pipe) but he did everything he could to make sure that I got no money back. Just to add to the problem, he never returned a single call, text or even letter.

Completely unprofessional, disorganized, and frankly, seemed uninterested in helping me navigate my claim. I felt more like a nuisance than a client. It's clear that the only thing he cares about is the 10% he's going to get from your payout. When it comes to his money, he's quick to respond, but when you actually need his help? He's nowhere to be found. Absolute nightmare to deal with.

Then, she had the engineering done and drew up plans for our contractor to follow. Kecia came up with a great plan that was thoughtful and thorough.

The contractor was able to give a better bid and there were fewer disputes about the scope of the project. I have already recommended Kecia to friends and highly recommend her here, too.

With a baby on the way we had a strict timeline which Doug and his team were able to easily meet. We'd never gone though this process before but Doug made it easy. He and his team provided everything from the architecture drawings, the multiple levels of city approvals, obtaining contractor bids and helping us with a few reworks to get everything we wanted in. Our project was approved and completed on time and on budget because of them. In short I'd highly recommend Stefanov Architects!

First and foremost, he is local to the area so we knew he wasn't going to make any recommendations that felt out of place. Since we were buying an older home, it was important to us to keep the integrity of the house. He asked all the right questions and held our hands along the way since this was all brand new to us. In the end his designs were exactly what we were looking for in our dream home -- including two roof decks. He was responsive from the get go and always respectful of our suggestions. Additionally he provided thoughtful answers on how to make design requests work -- and if they didn't, he would clearly explain why. He also worked well with our contractor and was in close contact with them every step of the way. Doug was particularly helpful during our Board of Appeals process (for the roof decks). He provide helpful guidance and tips all along the way, and we couldn't have gotten through it without him. Thank you Doug!!

He charged $150/hr. 3 drawings and 3…read moremeetings later it was clear that he was not listening to us and had not even come close to what we had requested. That debacle cost us $2100. We read about Arcbazar.com and decided to try them. We submitted drawings of the space with measurements, described the project and what we would like to see and accomplish, photos of the space. We bid a low $600 for the project and submitted asking for completion in 2 weeks. Within a few days we had 10 people from around the world interested in our project. During the process we received requests for clarification or more information. At the end of the process we had 7 submissions most including elevations, renderings, materials lists and sources. All of these submissions met our basic criteria. All were impressive and beat the $150/hr guy in presentation, value and execution. You can send the designs to friends and family to help you rank the designs. We all agreed on our top 1, 2 and 3 designs. I requested and was given the contact information for our top ranked designer. We have contacted that person to modify the initial design. That is outside of Arcbazar but have to say this part of the process is also going splendidly at a reasonable price. We are thrilled with this process and will never go back. Hints: ~ You might want to allow more time for your project ~ Offer a little more money. The top guy only gets a portion of the pie. ~ Ana, in the office, is also accessible by phone for questions. Just have to work in their time zone. ~ The more specific you are the better results. ~ Our bids came from Armenia, Belaruse, Italy, France, Romania, etc So you get an international flare.

It was remarkable how easy, efficient, and non-time consuming it was obtaining these designs; no taking off work to let them in the house etc. The follow-up from Arcbazar was top-notched. We had 13 designers from around the world sign up for our kitchen remodeling project and ended up with a total of 6 designs. 3 of these designs provided excellent ideas on how to rearrange our kitchen after knocking down the wall between the dining room and kitchen to open the space up; ideas we would have never thought of! Our first choice ended up being the design submitted from France! We love it! It has a bit of a European feel to it; beautiful, welcoming, cozy, and very functional. After the kitchen is completed, we plan to use Arcbazar again for a basement remodeling project.
