They say that home is where the heart is, and the spaces in which you spend the most time eventually become part of who you are. I believe everyone deserves to be inspired by the spaces where they live. Contact me today and see what I can do for you.

"Kristie is very knowledgeable and great to work with. She is a very good listener and her attention to detail is excellent. I liked the way she shared her ideas without being overbearing or dismissive. Her follow up is very good. I was just a little unclear about the parameters related to her fee, i.e: how much follow up from me is included in terms of questions. I enjoyed meeting with her and definitely benefited from her expert counsel."

"Job was initially not done to our agreement. In addition to some work that was actually done well, the crew pulled the weeds behind the pool, but instead of putting down weed barrier and mulch they spread grass seed in the area. I called them later the same day and they sent someone to fix the problem. This person did *not* fix the problem, but was sneaky and made it look like the problem was corrected. Instead of bringing in additional mulch and putting down weed barrier they took half the mulch from another part of my yard and spread it over the seeds. This means that ALL the mulch was at half-depth, the area in question did not have a weed barrier, and much to my surprise it was loaded with grass a few weeks later. Not only was this poor workmanship, but it was deceptive. I left multiple messages with my contact at this company in Q3/Q4 of 2017 asking him to fix the work. He promised to stop by the house the next week and never showed. I had hoped to avoid a negative review, but the company did not correct the work in 2017. I asked for this to be fixed and hoped for a professional response, but perhaps I should have pitched a fit instead. Paid for river rock around pool, weed removal & weed barrier & mulch behind pool and shed, and some seeding in the main lawn area. The rock was done properly, and I felt the price for the job was fair. Initial responsiveness was excellent, but follow through was not. The crew was punctual and showed up on time. Service performed at end of July 2017."

Building design services FAQs

Most municipalities require a building permit before you put up a pool house. Rules and fees vary widely depending on where you live and the local regulations in your area. Check with your local building department or general contractor early on in your pool house project, so permit costs and timelines don’t catch you off guard.

If you’re building a custom pool house, you can expect the entire process to take two to three months from the design phase to the end of construction, or even as much as a year for very large or complex pool houses. If you’re installing a prefabricated kit or shed, the process is much faster, averaging one to three days.

A pool house is generally sized between 100 square feet and 800 square feet, which means its dimensions directly reflect its intended functionality. A compact pool house, measuring 100 to 150 square feet, serves as an efficient storage or utility space, while a pool house of 300 square feet or more offers a comfortable room for changing, relaxation, and socializing. The size you choose depends on the intended use and design of your outdoor space, ensuring that the structure meets your lifestyle needs.

The common types of pool houses include guesthouses, standard pool houses, and sheds. A guesthouse is a small lodge adjacent to the primary home that provides overnight accommodations with essential amenities. A standard pool house is built near the pool to offer storage, changing facilities, and a relaxation zone. A shed is a simple structure designed for storing pool equipment and garden tools. Each type serves a distinct purpose and enhances your outdoor living experience.
