What a nightmare. We contracted with David Hand of Lake Tahoe Design Group to do a minor plan…read morechange for us, which he said would take about 10 hours total for him to complete. After the initial consultation, we agreed to retain him, and paid him a retainer. He was then completely unresponsive for weeks after, despite numerous emails and phone calls trying to reach him. Finally, he contacted us, and ultimately provided initial plans which did not include many of the design elements we had specifically requested both orally and in detailed emailed lists and even a drawing. After SIX months, we finally got the plans. Unfortunately, they were riddled with errors, including placing a staircase on the plans that wasn't build-able! Months later, we were contacted by the engineer that he used, who claimed we hadn't paid him. Of course we had paid David, who apparently neglected to pass the payment on to the engineer. I have no doubt there are other architects that would provide much better service.

If you are looking for a highly professional, expert, and organized building team, I cannot…read morerecommend Cory and his team highly enough. We recently consulted with them regarding a major remodel and addition for our home, and we were thoroughly impressed by their entire approach. Cory was incredibly generous with his time during our on-site walkthroughs. His expertise is immediately apparent, and we were especially grateful for his "Value Engineering" insights. He provided incredibly detailed and thoughtful advice regarding our roofing and structural needs, which helped us understand the project on a much deeper level. A huge shoutout also goes to Coco, who put together a comprehensive, detailed, and organized Master Budget spreadsheet we've ever seen. The level of transparency and detail they provide makes evaluating options and making informed decisions so much easier. While we ultimately ended up going in a different direction that aligned with our highly specific budget and scope requirements, Cory and his team set the standard for what the consultation and planning phase should look like. If you want a contractor who is knowledgeable, transparent, and meticulous with the details, absolutely give them a call!
