We hired Ron to do the architectural plans for the remodel of a fourplex. He came in with a fancy camera scanner to measure everything, a very efficient process. He was very much on time with the delivery of the initial draft. We discussed minor changes and submitted to the city, and they had just had a few minor corrections before approval, which is better than other architectural teams I have worked with. After we began work on the project, we discovered a beam in the ceiling was not pointing in the right direction, leading to the need for a revision to the plans. The engineer Margarito went on site and approved changes, which allowed us to quickly adapt. Overall this was a very streamlined process, I would be happy to use his services in the future and can very much recommend him.

We used Plan and Permit for a small home addition and had a great experience. Ron was really easy…read moreto work with and did a great job explaining the whole process upfront, especially since we were new to permits and planning. The timeline was totally reasonable (honestly, my slow email responses probably added more time than anything on their end), and the plans were approved by the city on the first try, which was a huge relief. It was also hard to find someone willing to take on a smaller project at a fair price, and they were very thorough. Even months later, they've still been responsive with follow-up questions from our contractor. Would definitely recommend, especially for smaller renovations or additions.

Space, flow, layout, lighting, detail, design, thought, care and beauty are all words that come to mind with a Jeannette home. I've also spoken to Jeff, the owner, on numerous occasions surrounding business and growth and he's extremely positive, supportive and passionate about local businesses and Long Beach in general. I highly recommend Jeannette for your architectural experience.

We worked directly with the very talented and creative duo Jeff Jeannette and Stefanie Haering. They helped us discover all of the potential our home had to give and provided many options to create space and functionality that we had not considered. From start to finish, Jeannette Architects listened to us and provided suggestions and plans that reflected our best hopes and needs. I always felt informed and respected. Our project moved forward throughly and quickly, especially considering the technical work that was required to rebuild every aspect of my home. My husband and I are so grateful that Stefanie and Jeff helped us throughout the entire project and even all through construction. I felt supported, I could always ask questions and get accurate, timely answers on even the smallest details. Jeannette would routinely check in on us as the work progressed and celebrated with us on the day we got to move back in. Jeannette Architects designed a beautiful home organized for utility. They created a new floor plan that flows elegantly, is functional and spacious for the homeowners with a sophistication that welcomes friends and family. They were extremely creative with a window plan that maximized the outdoor and indoor symmetry and welcomed natural light throughout my home. Stefanie was an absolute genius in how she found room in my floor plan to expand the primary bath. She added features like a wet room, which allows me to live like a spa queen. I have already recommended them to friends and family. Because of Jeannette Architects, our home is reborn for longevity, enjoyment and to preserve as a family asset.

We had a great experience working with Ramy on our ADU project. From the very first interaction, he…read morewas extremely responsive and professional. When he came out to take measurements, he offered smart suggestions that made our project more cost-effective while also adding long-term value to our home. Ramy delivered the plans ahead of schedule and took the time to walk us through everything in person. The city of Claremont's permit requirements are very strict, and it was clear that Ramy knew what the city would require. When the city had requests we didn't agree with, he communicated directly with the city planner on our behalf and guided us through the process with confidence and clarity. You get what you pay for with Ramy--his work is high quality, detailed, and thoughtful. His expertise, responsiveness, and professionalism made a stressful process feel smooth and manageable. We highly recommend him for any home or ADU project. He is absolutely worth it.

He took our vague ideas and transformed them into a beautiful, functional layout that maximized the space. His attention to detail during the design phase was top-notch, and he provided creative solutions we hadn't even thought of, especially since this is being designed for a geriatric resident. Plans approved by the city with minimal required corrections. Not to mention, Mark spent extra time educating us about different steps of the construction process to help us build affordably and efficiently. This doesn't happen anymore but Mark underpromises and overdelivers.

They use a good app for paying the invoices and communicating with us during the project. I had my main house renovated prior to the ADU and that contractor told me what the contract price for the ADU $$$$, we had to scramble to find another contractor and luckily we found ADU Homes Inc. We highly recommend them to anyone who is contemplating adding an ADU, they are professionals, very knowledgeable and know how to construct a ADU from foundation to finishing touches. They were on site everyday to oversee the construction. The contractor that did our main house was never onsite only subcontractors that they never supervised. ADU homes will be there on site to make sure the subcontractors do the work professionally and on time.
