I had the pleasure of working closely with Anthony while building my dream home, and I can say with the utmost confidence and enthusiasm that Anthony was a big part of making the dream become a reality. He not only had the creativity and taste to execute our vision to perfection and better than we even expected, but he made the process so enjoyable. Building a home can be extremely stressful, but if you have all-stars like Anthony on your team, the experience is completely different. Any time I needed anything, Anthony's responsiveness and willingness to help out was nothing short of impressive. 1000% recommend him. I will be using him again for future projects and will be looking forward to collaborating again. Thanks again Anthony, you've helped us build a showpiece that we're proud to call home!

I would like to share an amazing experience I had dealing with Erik at Square One Design &…read moreDrafting. From the 1st phone conversation I had with Erik, I realized how professional and knowledgeable he is in his field of work and beyond. I am not from Nor. Cal and had to rely solely on the information Erik provided me on the property over the phone/email. He went to the site and took some high resolution pictures that helped me understand the issues we were dealing with. He made it really easy for me to understand the technicalities involved. Further, he even took the time to go to the county and visited the building department for me to check on plans. If you ever need anything done on your property from getting new construction/rehab/addition designs and plans to permits and blueprints, be sure to check with Erik as he is very honest and professional.

We worked with Kassandra for the remodel of our office, Norman Scheel Structural Engineer, and…read morecouldn't be happier with the results. She demonstrated a great balance of creativity and practicality, modernizing the space while keeping it functional for a team of engineers who rely heavily on workspace efficiency. From the initial design concepts through construction, communication was clear and responsive. She provided thoughtful solutions for layout challenges, lighting, and ADA compliance that made a noticeable difference in both appearance and workflow. The new design feels open, professional, and welcoming to clients. Overall, an excellent experience with a highly skilled and detail-oriented architect who clearly takes pride in her work. We would absolutely recommend her for any commercial remodel or office design project.

Full disclosure: FM Design + Build remodeled my parents kitchen, not mine. I wish it were mine and…read morenow that it's so beautiful I use it like my own. Stephen and Sandra are a husband and wife team, each with different strengths, that literally walk you through each step of the remodeling process. They went with my parents to the granite yard (I didn't know that was a thing) to pick out the perfect granite for the kitchen, talked endlessly about functionality, and offered solutions to best meet my parents needs. Plus Stephen got his hands dirty completing a majority of the construction by himself. Unfortunately I don't have a before picture but the space is truly transformed. Beverage fridge? Check. Pull out drawer for pots? Check. Kitchen worthy of the most ardent chef? Check! And the bonus of enjoying time with people you love in a comfortable space. I know my parents are happier seeing me more often as I'm over all the time to bake and cook up huge meals. If you're looking for great quality construction, people who are a dream to work with, and reasonably priced services, I highly recommend FM Design + Build.

I contracted with FM Design+Build for a complex work project. While Stephen's expertise is in…read moreresidential work, this project was a bit more industrial. Stephen accepted the challenge and executed the work beautifully. His bid was the lowest I found. He was an excellent communicator and easy to get in touch with. He was able to take an existing space and create amazing renderings of my vision. His attention to detail was very appreciated and everyone involved in the project was very pleased with the end result of Stephen's work. Stephen was prompt, efficient, creative, and flexible....all terrific qualities in a business owner. I highly recommend FM Design+Build and will likely be consulting with them on personal projects in the future.

Warning: Do NOT, under any circumstances, buy a house from these dishonest, disreputable shysters…read more If most of us did our jobs the way these "gentlemen" do theirs, we would be unemployed (and so should they). The house may have initially looked good from a distance but, on closer inspection, the work they did on this home screams of sloppiness, carelessness, inattention to detail and a total lack of skill. There were so many things left poorly done or undone when we bought this brand new home, but they assured us that they would address the issues after we moved in. It has now been four months of nothing but delays and lies from the project manager, Igor Kolotyuk. His favorite things to say are "I'll do it tomorrow" and "I've ordered it and it should be here any day". We have rearranged our schedules/lives so many times to be home/available on days when he said work was going to be done but then no one ever shows up or calls to let us know plans have changed. This developer, STIX Development Inc., the owner, Paul Feitser , Igor and all those who work for them are unskilled, unethical frauds. We found out after the fact that the owner, Paul, actually had his contractor license revoked in 2016. Additionally, one of the "five-star" positive reviews above is actually written by Igor, the same STIX project manager who has been so awful to work with. I am guessing the rest of the positive reviews here were written by other employees as well. Just another example of the dishonesty we've come to expect from them. Please don't take my word for it though. Check out the list and pictures below of the kind of terrible quality work they have done. -Gaps in the flooring -Miss matched colored stucco -Sloppy outdoor concrete work that splashed all over the base of the home -Broken screens (Igor took them away to get them fixed and then never returned them) -Horribly scratched up glass on the front door -Cracks in the grout -A ridiculous patch job of a hole in the sink -No remotes to any of our fans If we could go back in time, we would never opt to work with this builder or any of his associates ever again. Unfortunately, we cannot. We hope others can learn from our mistakes and steer clear of this nightmare.

I hired HDH Design Group to design my new backyard in El Dorado Hills.

He then submitted a complete landscaping plan that covered hardscape, landscape, lighting, drainage, water feature, etc. I wanted a lot of colorful flowers in my yard.

His wealth of knowledge and experience, familiarity with the local area, and extreme attention to detail all allowed him to create a beautiful design that we love. In total, he created five detailed designs: overall layout, irrigation, drainage, lighting, and plants. During each step of the way, he carefully listened to our ideas, and crafted a design that matched the feel we were going for while simultaneously making sure it would all work well together. I was particularly impressed with the amount of thought he put into his selection of our plants, trees, and shrubs. I suppose the greatest testament to his work is that when I first showed the designs to my landscape contractor, he asked for Harlan's number - hah! I am now a firm believer that hiring an architect is a critical part of the landscaping process, and for that part, I can't recommend Harlan enough.
