Top Residential Architects & Engineers in San Mateo, CA

"They are very prompt , did the job same day. Very satisfied with the project."

"Glenn worked with us on a design that helped us make the most of our yard. His solution really maximized our space while also giving plenty of visual appeal with a combination of drought-resistant California-native plants. We also appreciated how he incorporated the construction of a new arbor, improvements to our retaining wall, deck tiles, and new fencing into our final design to really bring it all together. Glenn was also very willing to work within our budget.

Our yard has been getting compliments from friends and family since it was completed in October. We would recommend his work to anybody in the Bay Area."

"Alan was thorough and complete and as a result, we were able to get through design phase in one step and permit phase with zero changes. Quite an accomplishment in Carmel."

"I hired Mr. Wan K Lee to repair my sunroom that is located in my backyard. It is a 16x30 and we've had it for over 2 decades. Mr. Wan made an appointment and was early.


To summarize, before repairs:

- Upon arrival, he wore a mask and had a copy of his license for me.
- He spotted dry wood termite damage on the rafter. He advised me to contact an exterminator as termites can cause significant structural damage if left untreated.
- He recognized that the sunroom had sunken several inches over the years as our home is on a hill.
- He made recommendations for vinyl flooring and stated that it is possible that I may not be able to use the sliding door on the left side wall that was damaged. (Luckily, his team was able to repair the wall and the sliding door still works.)
- Mr. Wan emailed me a step by step plan with the costs of each part of the project. The email had a lot of information but it was very neat and easy to read.

To summarize, after repairs started:

- Mr. Wan's team arrived every morning with masks.
- Mr. Wan's team also made a smaller repair on roof that was damaged at front of home.
- After the final day of the 5 day project, some quarter round mold did not properly stick due to weather conditions. However, Mr.Wan's nephew (Peter) replied to my text and stated that they will be there to assist on the Saturday after New Year's Day.
- Mr.Wan made himself available to me via phone call or text at all stages of the repairs.

Lastly, Peter answered all my questions and kept me updated on the project. He also consulted with the team whenever I had questions about other repairs as well. I highly recommend Lees Pro Builder for any home repairs that are needed!"

"Mark has just started our remodeling project. He was the only one who would work with us when it came to his fees as an architect. Maybe you should contact me at a later time when we get further into the remodeling/addition."

"Just me George Sun a month ago to discuss what we (wife/I) wanted to do to our existing resident. So far is very courteous and knowlegeable in all aspect of his job. But rate someone at this time is impossible. Please resubmit this at latter time. Will complete this when the job is done

Thanks"

"We hired Shilpa as the third architect for our project. We were not happy with the first two. She delivered on the design and execution was as expected.
This was for a 2200sq feet single family home in Sunnyvale.
She fought back hard with the city planning division to get the plan approved to our taste. Most of the challenges were around city officials imposing their design choices on us. Very few technical issues in her drawings.
We hired a structural engineer whom she had not worked with before and they were able to execute the project smoothly.
We are half way through our project and Shilpaâ s drawing had no significant issues. We do consult her time to time when we have second thoughts about design decision and she provides alternatives.
Shilpa was a great ally in revision process and we highly recommend Shilpa for her architectural services."

"Overall, they provided an excellent service! We are happy with their work."

"We sought to remodel our bathroom that was 25 years old and in bad condition. We found HomeTech on Angieâ s List and after interviewing other companies we decided to go with HomeTech. Their price was very competitive with the others. However, the more important aspect for us was the trust that we felt from Moses, the project manager from HomeTech. Another plus was the designer services which were not offered by all companies.

Everyone from HomeTech was very professional and experienced in their various domains.

The demolition took about 3 days; thereafter, the HomeTech team kept us informed about project schedule, availability of materials, potential delays, items needing additional work, and city inspections. We appreciated the quality of the construction, attention to detail, excellence of the workmanship, and the recommendations we've been given. They brought to our attention the poor condition of the pipes from 1938 that really needed replacement. HomeTech completed this part of the project, as well, providing us with new piping throughout the house.

Hometech has given us a dream bathroom, which undoubtedly has increased our house value.

Deserving of special mention are project manager, Moses; designer Alon; construction manager, Tino, with his crew of Miguel and Chef; and Victoria who kept all informed and coordinated.

We would definitely recommend HomeTech to anyone with a remodeling project."

"Rich was great! He is very responsive, knowledgeable and honest. I was in a crunch and needed drawings. Rich asked me detailed questions and was able to come up with some solutions. He saved me time and money! He's very honest, which is rare in this day and age. Rich is old-school, and cares about quality and doing it right."

"I remodeled my kitchen and Rico was great to work with! With any construction project there are bound to be hiccups along the way. Rico always listened and addressed the issues that could be addressed by his team. I added on several requests and also had work done on my living room while they were here. Rico found a way to fit it into the schedule and I am very happy with the results. They even added a couple of extras that I had not considered such as putting a light inside of my hall closet! What a difference that has made in finding things! I interviewed several companies before hiring Artista. I chose them because their quote was reasonable and because I wanted to find someone that I could work with. I would hire them again without hesitation. "

"Tom was thorough in his approach, responsive to my concerns, and his work product is of high quality. The plans went through permit review with no revisions, to my great relief. He was also accommodating on price and went out of his way to stay on budget."

"Ron met with me to review my landscaping project and we agreed upon the fee to move ahead with a design. His design and ideas for trees and plants were very good and the finished product was great."

"He offers suggestions and enhancement. He's great to work with. "

"He is very professional."

"I went with Everlast Construction on my kitchen remodel. My neighbor recommended them and they also remodeled his kitchen and when I saw their work I decided to go with them. Ariel and his team arrived on scheduled date. They were great from first day to end of the project. The project went smoothly and with no extra costs. It was also finished on promised time and I am completely satisfied with the outcome, beautiful modern new kitchen. Highly recommended contractor!!"

"Pro.com replaced my front porch, including the stairs, with new decking. They also replaced the entire back deck, which covers much of the back yard, and redid the stairs there too.

I was very satisfied with the work Pro.com did. They kept their commitment to the agreed timeline, and they were very responsive once the deck was done (coming back for minor tweaks quickly). The men who actually did the work, including the project manager, were focused, fast, hard-working, pleasant, and accommodating.

Iâ m a tough person to please, particularly when it comes to hiring contractors. In this case, Pro.com exceeded my expectations. I recommend them without reservation.
