Small jobs welcome

"Eran from ESL Designs helped us with ADU design, drawing and permit submittal. They are easy to communicate with and great to work with. Eran has a lot of knowledge of design ADU to meet our requirements. We had many phone calls, office visit and in site visits with Eran and his team before signing the contract. Everything was laid out clearly and Eran made sure I won’t have any surprises throughout the project. We had in person discussion with Eran to finalize the building set. Eran submitted and followed up with the city on permit review. Overall, good experience. Will recommend to my friends in the future for ADU design."

"I've done a good amount of projects in LA and no matter how simple they start, they end up with their own degree of complexity. While I have come to appreciate that my own knowledge and research keeps my cost down and projects on track, working wtih Jesse eat Luxury Lifestyle Design & Development has made our experience so much more productive and cost efficient. Jesse and his team are response, available, professional and work with the same sense of urgency that we set on our projects. It's cliche, but they "Get it." I've done residential and commercial builds and remodels ranging from $50,000 to $750,000 and worked with a lot of firms, this has by far been the best experience we've had. "

"Leslie was an incredible find. I had had a dreadful experience with a large Hvac company and Leslie was able to rectify their shoddy work, comprehend numerous highly technical reports, deal with state licensing board, city permitting and multiple testing companies. She assessed the qualifications of numerous contractors and oversaw contract arrangements. She was experienced knowledgeable and brought an end to a nightmare situation with calm professionalism. I recommend her highly and would hire her again without hesitation."
