I can't recommend Ben enough for any architectural needs, especially if you're navigating the…read morecomplex permit process in Malibu. From the very beginning, Ben has been incredibly professional, attentive, and proactive. What truly sets him apart, however, is his genuine heart and empathy for his clients. My mother's business had to be put on hold during this process, which was an unexpected and stressful time for our family. Ben didn't just treat us like another project; he truly understood our situation. He worked tirelessly to resubmit plans and handle corrections as fast as possible because he genuinely wanted my mom to be able to get back to work and reopen her shop. It's rare to find someone who takes your personal success so personally. Beyond his expertise, Ben's pricing is very reasonable and fair, he is not overpriced at all, which is hard to find in this area. He was also incredibly helpful and understanding by allowing us to pay in installments while the business was closed. This financial flexibility was a lifesaver for us and showed his true character as someone who wants to help, not just make a profit. If you want an architect who is highly skilled, honest, and truly cares about your family and business, Ben is the one to call. We are so grateful for everything he's done. Thank you Ben!

I've had the pleasure of working with Luis Dorado at Visual Cad multiple times over the past eight…read moreyears, and I can confidently say he is an exceptional technical drafting professional. Our first project together was a major kitchen renovation, where Luis created detailed plans and successfully expedited them through the permitting process--something that can be daunting without the right expertise. Since then, he has supported me on a whole-house renovation in Lake Balboa, preparing the lot plan, existing conditions, and comprehensive plans for proposed changes. On another complex project, Luis drafted plans to reframe and remove all interior walls on the first floor of a two-story home. He coordinated with a structural engineer to determine how loads could be shifted to the exterior walls, turning a challenging vision into a safe and achievable reality. Visual Cad has also assisted with 3-D renderings, drafting, and tackling technically demanding projects that truly push the limits of what's possible. Luis has a rare ability to clearly explain both the plans and the overall process from start to finish, which makes working with him incredibly reassuring. I genuinely love working with Luis and highly recommend Visual Cad to designers, homeowners, and anyone navigating complex renovations.

I also want to mention that my project took less time than originally thought. As a result I was invoiced for three hundred dollars less to reflect the actual time spent.

A few hiccups along the way with the final permit but Sam acknowledged the mistake on his end and said he would sign off the edits in the revision phase of construction. I will give an updated review once that time comes. Quality: quality of work was good. Efficient in communication and dealing with a difficult city in a permitting process. Took about 6 months for the permits and the city kicked back for corrections 2x which is pretty standard. Value: felt his pricing was fair and reasonable Customer service: always responds to phone calls. Even after our final payment when we had questions or needed assistance. So not a "take your money" and we are done type of guy Overall impression: would use him in the future for any architectural or structural engineering jobs

Working with Joseph Cohan was one of the best decisions we made for our home remodel. From the…read moreinitial design phase through permitting and construction, Joseph was professional, responsive, and incredibly knowledgeable. His attention to detail, creative design solutions, and deep understanding of Los Angeles building codes made the entire process much smoother than expected. What really stood out was his ability to maximize space, improve functionality, and create a beautiful design while staying mindful of budget and construction costs. He guided us through the permitting process efficiently and always had practical solutions when challenges arose. If you're looking for a Los Angeles architect for a home remodel, custom home, ADU, residential architecture, interior design, renovation, permit drawings, or project planning, I highly recommend Joseph Cohan.

Their bid was competitive with a house painting contractor, so we decided to work with them again. Stephen kept us well-informed on their start date, and from then on, the painters showed up at 8am every morning. They power-washed the house first, did a lot of prep work, repaired stucco, and painted both our house and garage. They used Behr Marquee paint, which I researched on Consumer Reports and learned was their highest rated exterior paint. My house looks great; even my neighbor stopped me to compliment the paint job. I would absolutely work with Ranchwood again. Just need to save up for the next project!
