Kitchen Remodel - Lake Oswego
Jeremiah did a wonderful job designing my kitchen remodel. He turned my tiny 1970’s cramped kitchen into a warm, roomy, inviting space. The transformation was so remarkable, I feel like I have a new house. He was meticulous about measurements, coming to my house several times to assure accuracy. Because this was a first major remodel for me, Jeremiah made sure I was comfortable with the whole process and he worked well with my contractor. The renovation was completed on time and within my budget. I recommend Jeremiah very highly. He’s the best! Cynthia Ferrier, MD
Large Custom Deck - Beaverton
Working with Jeremiah to design a structurally complex deck for our new house was nothing but a joy. We had talked to multiple contractors who each had different ideas on how we should proceed. Some of them said we wouldn't need a permit from the county and each had different thoughts on what the set-backs from property lines would be. Finally, I decided that I should go to the building permit office myself to learn what the county would require. Once I did that, I realized I wanted to hire a designer so that I could ask various general contractors to provide bids on my design instead of designs that may or may not meet code. I found Jeremiah by googling structural designers. He responded with enthusiasm and was so easy to work with. He came to the work site and listened to what we were thinking. He then took measurements and photos. Within a week or two he had a design for my wife and I to review. We had a video call and he showed us a 3D CAD design. We were able to ask him things like "what if this section were longer? and what if you moved the stairs to a different location?". Jeremiah was able to make those changes on the fly so we could instantly see what the revised design would look like.
Satisfied with the design, Jeremiah used prescriptive guidelines that he was confident would meet county approval. The county requested changes twice (they should have asked for the second change at the time they asked for the first change, but that's the way it goes). Jeremiah was careful to work with the county and get the job done. It took about four weeks for the county to review the design, request changes and issue a building permit. I'm really glad we took this approach and we would definitely use Jeremiah again! Chris & Julie O'Leary
Jeremiah came out to our house to take measurements and meet with us to understand the direction we were trying to take our deck and exterior projects. Within a day or two, Jeremiah had a 3D rendering of the exterior of our home that allowed us to quickly visualize our ideas and make real-time adjustments. His final renderings gave us the confidence to move forward with the construction work and helped emmensely when communicating our requirements to consturction professionals. We highly recommend Jeremiah, his process, and his technology for visualizing the outcome of a house or structural project before even breaking ground on it. We continue to use Jeremiah for ongoing updates to our home that include new doors, windows, garages and even siding designs. He can 3D visualize it all.
3rd Story Addition - Lake Oswego
We’ve been working on a multiyear project to add a third basement floor to our house and while the big pieces were easy to pull together, some of the others were not. We had to take all of our decks off of the house to complete the third floor so we had an opportunity to reimagine the design, as well as look at other siding options. Jeremiah was easy, responsive and flexible to work with on these important features. He understands current trends and design options and guided us in what to know about engineering standards and proper materials. Using his software, we were able to make changes and finish our plans together, instead of using a lengthy back-and-forth process via email or phone.
