Architects in Marengo, OH

“We were in the middle of a remodel when our house collapsed. I had to get options together as to rebuild on to what was left of our home or to tear down and start new. I outreached to RDS, spoke to Dominic who took my message, and received a call back in record time. Jim scheduled a visit with his structural engineer within a few days to come out to our site. Jim had me come in to design a sketch to build on to the back of our 1800's brick home. The sketch was amazing and came together very quickly. His design process is simple but thorough and allows for changes that he sketches on the spot. Ultimately, we have made the decision to tear down and build new. We do not have the time for a full customized designed from beginning to end but Jim had solutions for us. I feel confident that he has designed the house of our dreams within our budget. He is knowledgeable about building and associated costs. With little to no timeline, Jim manages to fit us in every time I call. The office staff that I have interacted with are friendly with smiles on their faces. I cannot say enough good things about Residential Designed Solutions. I am thrilled that I found Jim and look forward to working with him to get our new house under way. Thank you Jim! After almost a year, we are going home this week. RDS is amazing and Jim is second to none. Thank you RDS!”

“We hired Steven to take our rough plans and make them into blueprints for a future home. He was very professional and easy to work with. He made our ideas come alive on paper. When wanting to provide more floor space in the master bedroom for our ailing parents, he worked with us to find practical solutions that made the space functional and inviting. We wanted to have wheel chair accessibility in the home and Steven helped us plan ramps and other accessible areas in our home. He was patient with us when we were deciding on ideas. Steven was someone who we would work with again if given the opportunity and his efficiency is very commendable.”

“SBA has helped Coppertree Homes become the builder we are today. We could not ask for a better partner who truly cares about doing the right thing, the right way. The are creative, cost effective, and most importantly good people.”

“We planned a significant master bedroom renovation of our upstairs that included adding a dormer, a master bathroom, raising the ceiling and adding windows for southern exposure and passive solar. The existing room was partially finished but with poor insulation and natural lighting and no facilities. We needed a set of plans that we could get bids for work and pull permits with the city. Josh Lloyd w Sym-Home came to the house to review the space, listen to our objectives, and took photos and measurements. Josh prepared 3-D conceptual layouts of the dormer options and the floor plan. My wife was particularly appreciative of the 3-D plans as there were options she had liked in the 2-D plan but upon seeing them in 3-D realized it was not going to work or look the way she anticipated. Josh refined the layout which turned out exactly the way we wanted. We're very happy with the space and would recommend Josh and Sym-Home for residential home renovations.”
