Brad is consistently responsive and communicative, making coordination between architecture and structural engineering seamless. His drawings are thorough, well thought out, and clearly detailed, which facilitates efficient structural design and a smooth permitting and construction process. We particularly appreciate his quick turnaround on revisions and his ability to resolve inconsistencies that naturally arise in residential projects. Brad navigates the fluid nature of the work with ease--whether responding to new site findings, evolving field conditions, or client-driven design changes--while maintaining clarity and momentum throughout the project. Nederhoff Architecture is a reliable and professional partner, and we look forward to continuing our collaboration on future projects.

I've been lucky enough to see some other locations where this company has been the ones behind the renovation, and all I can think of is "class". They have a lot of class when it comes to architectural design. They really know their stuff. If you're looking to remodel your home, you'll be happy with the designs from this place.

Tim and his team have worked with us on three completed residential projects at our home. We are…read morenow preparing to start a fourth phase, which we hope will complete the upgrade of our nearly 60 year old Cape. The first project was a street facing dormer that reshaped the look of the house from the exterior, while providing where before there had been a gloomy restrictive hall, expansive new well lit space inside. Interior finishes included high density foam insulation, replacing all old style wood trim with new bold trim, a long window seat, and custom shelves, cabinets and a built in desk. With the contractors still on site, a design in hand, we started the second project, while halfway through the first. This project was to upgrade the original 1966 upstairs bathroom, and replaced it with a 3 room segmented space that had separate shower/bath, toilet, and 2 sink washroom. We have 4 bedrooms on the second floor. With Tim we created the perfect 4 person bathroom, where all 4 could, if necessary, simultaneously have privacy, while sharing the same space. Tim designed the cabinetry for both the 8' vanity, and shower/tub room. Tile selections, combined with careful LED placement, gave us a bright usable space. When the second floor dormer and bathroom were complete, we moved from our downstairs Master bedroom to one of the upstairs bedrooms to make way for the third project, which was intended to provide a first floor master suite where we could eventually gracefully age in place. Tim's design gutted the left side of our house, removing the master bedroom, a guest room, powder room and small classic 1960's master bath consisting of a shower, toilet and single sink. He extended, with a full basement under, the back of the house 8' for the length of the master bedroom and master bath. The finished product comprised an expanded entry hall, relocated formal powder room, and entry coat closet, an expanded Master Bedroom with a large walk in closet, and a Master bath unit that included a closeted laundry, 8' counter with 2 sinks, linen closet, and a wet room that allowed ample space for a shower that had both a wall head and ceiling rain shower, plus a full size bath tub. Exterior walls and ceilings were insulated with closed cell foam that provides the most remarkable heat and A/C retention. As with the upstairs Tim paid particular attention to the finish details, being uncompromising and bold with the door design, windows, molding, trim, as well as adding crown molding. Doors were sized to allow wheelchair access, if we were to ever need it, bathroom fixtures while beautiful, were also selected to ensure they would be as relevant today, as they might need to be in 20 years. We completed these projects last spring, and love the finished work, with us particularly enjoying the space, comfort, and grandeur of our bedroom and bathroom. These projects were part of a master plan we had initially worked on with Tim, with the final stage of the master plan to bump out our constricted family room and kitchen, plus remove a small three season converted breezeway between the garage and house, replacing it with a two story space that will combine Tim's bold style with our desire for a functional kitchen, and more importantly a warm welcoming home.

She also is an excellent listener and really gets what her clients are going for and is able to use her years of expertise in the field to research solutions, find just the right pieces or paint colors, while also magically working well within the budget. You feel as if you're in a wonderful collaborative partnership with her where she is very open to ideas, suggestions and feedback but also uses her expertise and talent to guide the planning and finishing process. She's flexible, attentive, incredibly professional and reliable. She was able to calmly and kindly work with me on a fast, stressful timeline (due to an unexpected move in office space) and a restricted budget to transform a previously neglected office space with challenging space issues into a beautiful, healing space that my clients and I love. Megan is truly a pleasure to work with and a shining gem in her field. I give her my absolute highest recommendation for any design work you may need!!

David designed and supervised our house renovation. The scope of renovation was building an…read moreadditional garage bay, new screened porch and deck, laundry room, extending existing family room and kitchen and renovating all bathrooms and the kitchen. Our challenges included transforming a standard traditional house into contemporary style home. A few architects that we interviewed had no idea how to approach the project. David drew us a picture of our new house in the first meeting in 10 minutes. Then he took the house measurements, entered them into an architectural software and produced a computer design of our house renovation. At any stage of the design we were able to see the pictures of the new design or get into 3D viewer and "walk" around the house trying on the new spaces. David helped us to find the right GC. David guided us through the entire construction process, helped managing the billing schedule and controlling the budget. David introduced and designed many interesting details in the house: the new stairs, kitchen, fireplaces, front entrance, doors, windows, trim. He paid attention to every little detail and worked on it. He designed and implemented innovative lighting ideas in the house. David explained all his ideas to the contractors while he was overseeing the construction, frequently visiting the site. He detailed the tile layouts and the plumbing fixtures locations to agree with the layout. David found a kitchen maker who made our challenging kitchen exceptionally well. David always knew the best materials for the task and where to find them for the best price. He is a very professional, knowledgable designer. He is very efficient to resolve any problem or find a competent professional who can do that. We have now our dream house that has a lot of light and space. We are convinced that our house would never be that great without David's work.
