"Over two months to get house plans. Communication was dismal and the majority of my phone calls and emails were ignored. After I put down my initial deposit. I was ignored for so many weeks, I was beginning to think the company was fake. Draftsman never asked a single question. Not a good look when each round of revisions are charged by the number of changes. My final payment was requested before receiving house plans. Payment was sent and plans were immediately provided despite never having discussed or seen electrical and plumbing, etc. There was an error on the final plans and it took an act of Congress to get it changed. To be fair the final product was excellent but the ulcers I developed over this whole process would make me rethink using Evolution."

"I cannot say enough about Aaron Schwarder and Schwarder Construction. We bought a home that had not been updated since 1964. Plumbing included. Aarons crews redid both baths and the kitchen. Beautiful bright Carrera look tile, white counter tops, beadboard, wainscoting. New light and plumbing fixtures. Kitchen went from dark and cave like with fluorescent lights in plexiglass recessed ceiling thing, to raised ceiling, high end appliances, beadboard cabinets and an open to the dining room floor plan. Aaron was not satisfied with the cabinet surfaces and repainted them himself. All custom cabinets. Very important to me is the comfort level of having people working in my home. It can be awkward, to say the least. Aaron's guys are very respectful and always clean up at the end of the day, even if they are coming back in the morning. They were very careful not to let the animals escape. Recently I called the home depot pro desk with some questions about installing a new entry door and the first name they gave me was Schwarder Construction. I was raised to believe that a man's word is his worth. You can take Aaron at his word. 5 stars only because you cannot rate higher."

"Stronghold Remodeling did a fantastic job! I loved the attention to detail and the quality of work. A very pleasant young man to have working in my home for several days."

"My husband and I met with ACE Design and Drafting (ACE) in August 2023 to review the drawings we had prepared and conduct an interview regarding skills, experience, and process in preparing the plans. As a result of the interview, in August 2023 we entered into an agreement for ACE to prepare building ready plans for our project. The estimate to complete the plans was 3 months. Although our experience with ACE began as amiable, it slowly deteriorated to less than satisfactory. Our verbal phone communication and interaction with ACE soured, and we were no longer able to communicate/interact with ACE verbally over the phone, only by email. Unfortunately, communication with ACE through email did not improve. Our communication issues or lack of communication with and from ACE caused a considerable delay of the submittal of our plans to the County. They were not able to be submitted to the County for initial review until February 2024, nearly six (6) months after entering into the agreement with ACE. We experienced unfavorable interactions with ACE which are noted below. · ACE misplaced the drawings we provided. As we did not have a second copy of the drawings (our mistake), this delayed ACE in preparing the plans. We were in California, so it was necessary to travel to Lake Havasu City, Arizona and assist ACE in locating the drawings in the office. · The plans were submitted to Mohave County (County) for review and the County noted various corrections/redlines were required. ACE was contacted by letter which detailed the redlines needed for the house and shop. Per the County, ACE did not make all the required corrections/redlines (although our agreement states required corrections will be made when ordered by the County). The County representative was very helpful and was able to make the remaining required corrections/redlines as noted below. o House § Correction requested - Wall bracing for this structure does not meet minimum of code. Please revise. (Ref. IRC 2018 R602.10) · This was as a result of stucco vs metal siding. The correction from wording of stucco to metal siding was noted on the plans, however, the legend which showed wall board was being used was incorrect as was the use of the wall board legend icon (a 3 in a triangle) noted around the exterior of the structure. As our home would have metal siding, wall board is not required. However, sheathing (a 2 in a triangle) is required on the entire exterior of structure. The County made the correction by striking through the “wall board” legend icon and replacing in red ink the “sheathing” legend icon. o Shop § Correction requested -Header over garage door fails loading. Please revise. (Ref. IRC 2018 R301.1) · The plans show a correction of a “4x12 header”; however, in this situation a 6x12 header was required. The County made the correction by striking through “4x12 header” and replacing in red ink “6x12 header”."
