WATERWORTH DESIGN

The project went on without a hitch. There were very few changes that needed to be made save for some minor electrical placements and configurations.

I used the services of Waterworth Design for building designs to remodel my home, about a month ago. His designs were faulty (hip wall not sufficient for the cricket). Biggest mistake was he did not know that all spiral staircases come with a landing (because of headroom), so now we have a big platform jutting out from our upper deck. Never listened to us, until the end he mislabeled rooms (even when we went over and over what the additional rooms were). And his claims of following up and being there for us, were false as once he got the final check, we never saw or heard from him again.

The estimator told us if some of the walls were structural or if they were bearing walls. He seemed to know his work. He kind of talked too much and it was too much for just doing a design without doing any work. I would probably not use their services in the future.

They were great. I used them twice because we had to go back and have something else added. It wasn?t his fault. We had asked to have something added to suit the city. We didn?t ask them to do the work, and he is not that kind of service anyway. We were just looking for plan so that we could get a permit. It cost us extra because we had to go back a second time but that wasn?t his fault. He was very responsive. I would use him again, and I would recommend him to other people.

Even though we?ve finished with him, he?s been wonderful with helping us through the process. In retrospect, I?m very pleased with the price because he?s been very helpful with answering our questions and willing to be involved in the process even though his part is done. It was a fair price considering that he?s stayed involved with us. I would absolutely recommend him.

I really liked the plan that he came up with. The additions look like they are a part of the original house. He was slow in getting information to us and getting back to us about any changes. Beware if you add to the plan or change it, because you will be billed for it.

They did a good job. He was punctual, friendly and knowledgeable. I was impressed with the presentation.

Very professional. Good design. Worked with builder as questions and problems arose.

Wayne was very friendly and easy to get along with. He showed up on time every time. He was patient with the changes I wanted to make to the plans.

He was responsive and listened to what I wanted. He had the plans drawn up within a few weeks and they were exactly what I wanted.

MR. WATERWORTH RETURNED MY CALL AND SET UP A MEETING. HE SPENT OVER AN HOUR WITH ME DISCUSSING THE PROJECT AND THE POSSIBLE DIFFERENT WAYS TO TACKLE IT. ALL IN ALL, I FOUND HIM PROFESSIONAL, VERY PERSONABLE AND HE SEEMED VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE. I NEED TO GO TO THE CITY WITH A RUDIMENTARY PLAN TO SEE WHAT THEY WILL ALLOW AND THEN WE CAN PROCEED WITH THE SPECIFICS. I'M NOT SURE IF I WILL NEED TO HIRE MR. WATERWORTH, BUT IF I DO I FEEL VERY COMFORTABLE WITH THE PROSPECT.

WAYNE WAS WONDERFUL. HE LISTENED TO OUR DESIRES AND WAS ABLE TO ARTICULATE OPTIONS FOR US TO CONSIDER. I WOULD RECOMMEND A CALL TO HIM IF ANYONE IS CONSIDERING REMODELING.

WAYNE IS A VERY PLEASANT PERSON TO DEAL WITH. HE IS VERY FLEXIBLE AND ACCOMMODATING. BECAUSE OF THE ESTIMATED EXPENSE OF THE PROJECT WE HAD IN MIND, MY WIFE AND I DECIDED TO SCALE BACK OUR REQUIREMENTS AND NEEDED SOME TIME TO DECIDE WHAT THE NEXT SET OF SPECS WOULD INCLUDE. SO WE DID NOT ENGAGE WAYNE FOR ANY WORK. ONE INTERESTING FACTOID DID COME UP IN OUR DISCUSSIONS. APPARENTLY WAYNE IS NOT A LICENSED ARCHITECT, AT LEAST NOT IN FL. HIS CARD SAYS ''BUILDING CONSULTANT''. HE APPEARS TO HAVE A LOT OF EXPERIENCE IN BUILDING, BUT I ORIGINALLY WANTED AN ARCHITECT AND THOUGHT THAT WAS WHAT I WAS GETTING BECAUSE WAYNE WAS LISTED UNDER ARCHITECTS IN ANGIE'S LIST. I MADE AN ASSUMPTION, WHICH I SHOULDN'T HAVE.

WAYNE WAS NICE BUT A DESIGN SERVICE WAS NOT WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR.
