We had a great experience working with David! We were remodeling a duplex in Berkeley and taking…read moreout/moving most of the walls, and also digging into the basement to create additional livable space--so it was a somewhat complicated project that required an engineer. David's turnaround time was excellent, and when we submitted our plans, the city didn't have any questions/feedback about the engineering portion because it was so thorough. We really appreciated his contributions to our planning process!

David came to our home at the recommendation of our architect. He charged $500 for the…read moreconsultation, but advised that he would put this toward his fee if we chose to hire him. Because we knew we needed structural design work, and because he was recommended by our architect, we went ahead and paid. When it came time to hire him, he asked for another $500 for a second site visit. He also said that he would not put that $500 or the prior $500 toward the project and that it was simply for his time to visit the site. Our contractor ultimately engaged with a different structural engineer who did not charge us for guiding us toward city typical drawings that were ultimately permitted. David ripped us off, plain and simple.

However, that contract at AT&T was safe as long as I needed it. My start date for the Clarity job was first pushed back from a Tuesday to the next Monday, then the next Monday, then Nov. 1st. Last thing I heard everything was still a go, but can't get anyone to call me back, and I think the deal has fallen through, but it seems once the prospect me making any money for Clarity seemed dim, I became persona non grata. I have been unemployed now for 4 1/2 weeks because of Clarity's bungling. Luckily, I have multiple other offers right now. They say they are the top L&D Recruiter, and I find that truly frightening. There are dozens of other recruiters to work with for L&D. Avoid if you can, and I will tell all my L&D friends to do the same.

I worked with Structech on several structural engineering remodel projects in Woodside, CA this…read morepast year, including: a very large deck on piers, window relocations, general engineering questions, and pergolas. Hamid is very personable and highly competent. I am a homeowner, not a contractor, and therefore needed a bit of guidance along the way. The first major project we worked with him on was a deck extension. After determining what we wanted in terms of a support structure (minimal visual impact due to guest room at that level), he designed a deck that met all codes and local requirements that made sense. When we needed to expand even that deck due to a gas line issue, it was a simple solution. When I had difficulty sourcing some of the material (try to find high strength screws that can penetrate 1/4" of steel at Home Depot), he stepped in to find it or called out alternative materials (one manufacturer, Trex, doesn't manufacture all of the steel trusses listed in its engineering catalog anymore). He provided very valuable advice relative to some unpermitted work by a previous owner and also how to address some of the shortcomings of 40 year old construction. Our last project was a lot of fun, we had a 20' opening that we wanted to span with a pergola. The design called for a 27' length, which, in the interest of keeping architecturally clean, could only be accomplished with metal. Steel would have been a cheaper material for the pergola, but the weight would have required a much more substantial and expensive support structure (rebuilding instead of using existing), and a massive effort to install. Hamid recommended aluminum tube, which while more expensive on the pergola material and fabrication, was a much more cost effective solution. also, with a sharp edge square / rectangular tube, the design is spectacular. I would highly recommend Hamid for any structural engineering work.

My mom built our house from this construction company…read more You know the horror stories about construction right? Dishonest workers, they dont show up on time, constantly monitoring. THIS construction company and its owner DARWIN never have had this problem. We tore down our home and built an entirely new one in 6 MONTHS. Its a 5 bedroom, 3 bath home. How often does that happen? At one point our copper pipes got stolen too and we had a few setbacks not related to the construction guy but he really worked around everything. We passed the inspection, and they do everything from plumbing and walls etc. Also they painted the house and matched the price of the cheapest painting job. And the painting was amazing. Its 5 years later and its still going good! We even had some plans on expanding later on or building a room in the attic and he laid down the plumbing and everything so if we wanted to do that later we COULD without having to go through to break walls. Amazing guy. If you want honest construction done, fast, and timely. Dont look any further. It was by chance that we met the owner, and it was by chance we got so lucky.

During that talk, Clayton was able to pique my interest enough to make me inquire about their dental consulting services. Long story short, I am so glad to have met Clayton that night and also so glad to have had ExecTech on my side this past year. My experience with ExecTech has been nothing short of amazing. Our practice numbers have dramatically increased. I attribute much of this success to the guidance from my practice consultant JD. He has helped me to put systems in place to better communicate and motivate my staff. JD has helped me to also analyze my practice more by numbers and less by "feel". We now consistently set monthly production, collections and new patient goals. Year to date (end of September 2018) we have over 850 new patients in and our practice revenue is up over 30% from 2017. In all, I have really enjoyed working with JD and the whole ExecTech team. If you are a young doctor looking for guidance on how to better manage staff and grow a young practice, you should strongly consider ExecTech. It has been a worthwhile investment.
