Basement
Remodel
I was hired to
help a do-it-yourself client complete his basement
remodeling project. I was able to guide him in very specific
phases that were critical to the function and form of the
project. He had the skills to perform the labor but was not
familiar with the intricacies of putting the pieces together
correctly. For example, he knew how to construct a wall,
assemble a toilet and run the plumbing but did not realize
that a toilet needs to be placed a specific distance from
the wall to allow for plumbing access. I was able to review
his remodeling plans and make the appropriate revisions to
ensure that the construction was done properly the first
time. This saved him countless hours and money redoing
things that had been done incorrectly. |

Patio
Addition
One
client had obtained my services to review the plans for a
major exterior patio addition. After obtained estimates from
three separate landscape architect firms they felt so
overwhelmed they almost did not pursue their dream backyard.
Each firm had come up with different problems with the
design and different solutions that made the homeowners
weary of what they were getting into. I was able to evaluate
the needs of the client, inspect the patio site, and
trouble-shoot the potential drainage problems (something
that none of the landscape firms had addressed properly).
Most importantly, I explained each issue so they could
understand the problem and how to solve it. They eventually
hired me to oversee the entire construction process. I met
with the individual contractors, assisted in obtaining
building permits, educated the homeowner on materials to
purchase and helped coordinate the schedule. I was able to
guide them through the process and reassure the homeowners
along the way, giving them peace of mind that the project
was completed correctly. |

| Atrium
Addition
Overseeing the entire
renovation project can sometimes benefit the homeowner on
multiple levels. I recently oversaw an atrium addition where
I was able to trouble-shoot problems for the various
contractors on many occasions that not only benefited the
contractors but the homeowner directly. Initially, I
evaluated the blue prints for the atrium and noted that the
design of the addition would have interfered with the
existing roof and caused water drainage and ventilation
problems. I then helped redesign the pitch of the roof to
optimize storm water drainage into the existing gutters
(which neither the sales person nor the engineers or
architects had discovered in the original blueprints).
Secondly, by recommending test dig holes to the excavator, I
was able to help the excavator identify difficult land/soil
conditions so that correct equipment was available thereby,
reducing time and money wasted having the wrong equipment.
Additionally, I assessed the water drainage from the home
site and made recommendations to the contractor laying the
foundation. The contractor then made allowances for and
adjusted the appropriate drainage away from the house so
that rain water would not leak into the existing basement. |
