As usual, Dan came through! This is the second time we've used him for plans. The first time was for a full bedroom suite addition to our house. He did such a great job that time that we wouldn't call anyone else to do the kitchen plans. He is beyond thorough and knows what he's doing. He kept us up to date throughout the entire process. I highly recommend him for any and all drafting needs.

We originally thought we needed to add a living room on to the back of our house. Daniel took his time and thoughtfully suggested alternatives, until we arrived on a better solution. We're very excited about the changes we'll be making, and we couldn't have come up with this on our own. It's obvious that he has a great deal of experience, takes pride in his work, AND wants the best for his clients and their homes. He recently provided sealed plans, along with recommended next steps to help us on our way with this project.
Description of Work: We were considering an addition to our home. We struck out with the planners that were recommended by a contractor. They were either impractical or busy. I found Daniel on this site.

Daniel was very flexible and responsive and offered a lot of practical advice to help guide us through the construction process (offered recommendations on permitting services, contractors, etc.). The end product exceeded our expectations and was very detailed. In fact, the contractors that we contacted spoke very highly of the work completed previously by Mr. Ossman

Daniel was Fast, Friendly and Very Professional - and he caters to the Residential Market (smaller projects that need permitting - not many firms out there would even do what I needed done) We needed architect "stamped and signed" drawings to show the removal of a wall inside our home, the installation of new electrical and plumbing for a wet bar and the final design to apply for a permit in our local county. in addition to doing the required drawings, he spent the time to explain the local county permitting process. He provided all the required sets of prints for submittal to the county, as well as PDF's of all drawings provided. He provided review copies so we could mark up our electrical and plumbing information and quickly returned finals. He even scanned in my original building plans (D size) so I could have a copy electronically. I will definitely use Daniel again and his pricing was very reasonable (I had some similar work done in the past in another state, and Daniel's prices were in line with my expectations)
Description of Work: visited my home, provided accurate estimate for architectural drawings needed for permitting process, and delivered final drawings along with explanation of county permitting process.

Daniel is a professional designer that did our plans for room and bathroom addition.He was very fast and was done much earlier than we expected, while still paying attention to details and quality. His responds were almost immediate and he actually helped us in making other decisions regarding the project. Daniel is very patient, very organized and easy to work with. We would highly recommend to hire him for drafting projects.

Just as I hoped for. Perfect ! 4 contractors have the on-line prints for construction quotes. All is on scheduled (so far). Prints were complete with perfect drawings, all construction details, what wood to use, door schedules with details, step details, Sizes of screws, mounting hardware, concrete specs. Everything needed in detail. Absolutely a top notch job. Knows what he is doing. (And Hillsborough County must be familiar with his work) Good Job !
Description of Work: Designed and provided working drawings for county approval. He said drawing will take 3-4 weeks, approvals from county 3-4 weeks. took 3 weeks for each. Prints returned approved as submitted with no red marks. And that is what I wanted! Large enclosed 2-story deck with roof, attached to existing home.

I was set to close on the sale of my home when this popped up as a closing issue. Mr. Ossman was extremely responsive to the urgent time perameters and stopped his current projects to ensure this matter was resolved in time for the closing. He was very professional and thorough. I highly recommend him for any similar assignment.
Description of Work: Mr. Ossman conducted a complete field inspection and survey of construction work completed by the prior owner of my home, whom did not have final inspections. He worked directly with an engineer to ensure the work was done properly and met building standards.

Given this was over the holidays, this went fairly quickly....Daniel was ready before we were and provided completed plans to submit for permits and recommendations on how to work that process.
Description of Work: Daniel spent an afternoon with us looking at an existing awkward 3 room master suite that we knew we wanted to do something with..just didn't know what. After moving cutouts around several times, we were able to come up with a plan that utilized as much of the space, as efficiently as possible.

Dan was 1 of 3 companies I contacted to complete the work. Of all 3, Dan was the most communicative, punctual, and was extremely reasonably priced. His average turnaround time was weeks instead of months compared to his competition. On the initial consultation, Dan was able to immediately identify a complicated load point over the dining room that really threw a wrench in our plans. He was able to provide options on how to deal with it, along with ballpark ideas on cost. Ultimately, the solution we settled on provided a greater open concept and superior sight lines throughout the kitchen, living room, and dining room. Dan also demonstrated great ease interacting with our general contractor. Together, they were able to work out the details of construction and determine the appropriate changes to the scope of work to ensure the design was safe and would last without crippling the renovation budget. Finally, Dan successfully delivered the final blueprints in a timeline that is frankly jaw-dropping. Everything was complete and no issues raised with the permit application. I am so pleased with Dan and his work product. My wife and I are planning on a garage addition in a couple years and I have no doubt I will be following up with Dan to plan the design. I wholeheartedly recommend Dan's services.
Description of Work: My wife and I recently purchased a house with the intent to renovate. We had a fairly specific floor plan in mind and needed the blueprints necessary for permitting the work. We needed to remove 2 load bearing walls, one of which was more than 24 ft long. We also wanted to move a non-load bearing wall, add a pantry to the kitchen, add a master bedroom closet, eliminate a linen closet in favor of adding that space to the bedroom behind it, and add a door to the master bedroom. We knew we were dealing with some structural oddities in the roof as the house had been expanded 3 times since it was built in the 50's.

Daniel is very professional, easy to work with and full of brilliant ideas. We had an original plan for our modifications that he looked at, he explained that what we were looking at would be costly. He made several suggestions that eventually led to a far supierior design that would cost about the same as originally planned with a lot more work done. Communication with him was easy and he replied promptly. His time estimates we very good and he would always deliver even faster than expected. I should also mention he is extremely patient. We delayed this project due to medical issues and many idea changes, but he was always ready to get back with us as soon as we were ready. He listens and makes suggestions based on your wants and budget. The next big project we undertake there would be no doubt I will use Daniel Ossman
Description of Work: Daniel met with us to redign our home to get the dream home we wanted without moving to a new property. He deisgned and drew up the plans for our renovation and addition.

I have a detached block building on my property that I have wanted to convert into a recreation room/workshop but wasn't sure of how to go about it exactly. Daniel Ossman contacted me shortly after I left a message for him through Angie's list. We set up an appointment and Mr Ossman came to take a look at the building and discuss exactly what I wanted to do. Daniel made measurements of the building and pointed out things that needed to be done before starting the permit process.. He also made suggestions on the layout that would help to utilize the area better. Mr. Ossman explained the permit/inspection process to me and what I could expect as the work progressed.. The next day I was emailed a draft markup of the things we had discussed, and was asked to review and approve it. Within a couple of days of this I met with Daniel and was provided two sets of drawings plus PDFs. We went over each drawing and he pointed out things that I needed to be aware of. Overall the whole process was very quick and thorough. I was impressed with Mr Ossman's knowledge and would definitely hire him again for future projects.
Description of Work: Contacted Mr Ossman through Angie's list to draft and provide a set of plans to convert a detached 22 ft by 20 ft block building into a recreation room with an enclosed toilet, shower, and sink.
