It was a wonderful experience working with John and his team. The plans were clear and understandable resulting in an accurate bidding process. In addition, the plans were clear to the construction team and were executed precisely. We love the way the porch and deck look!!! We wouldn't want to do a project without John. He is busy (I think that is a good thing!), but if you are flexible, he is definitely worth it! We are already working with him on some other home projects and wouldn't want to use anyone else!
Description of Work: Created plans for a covered back deck and front porch. He also helped us with the contractor bidding process and worked closely with the contractor and us during the construction. He filled out all the appropriate permits/paperwork.

Description of Work: John Woodruff created plans for interior and exterior additions to our home built in 1924. He is extremely knowledgeable about the nature and pitfalls of adding on to the older homes in the New Rochelle, Scarsdale area. We are very pleased with his designs and the attention he gave us. John listens to his clients' needs and will make changes at the client's request providing they are able to be accomplished. He is always ready to come on site to answer any questions or view any issues that arise during the construction phase. He is professional, personable and calm and we enjoy working with him.

The floor plan was good and I was happy until I asked for his recommendation on a contractor. He gave me the worst contractor I have ever used (see my other review for Landmark Construction). When the contractor refused to finish the job I contacted John and it was very obvious that they were working together. He offered very little help and just told me to pay his accomplice. I would not use him again because of his obvious lack of professionalism.
Description of Work: I hired him to draw the floor plan after a tree fell on my house during Hurricane Sandy.

Response from John Woodruff Architect
This is not a true representation of the circumstances . I drew plans for [member name removed] and I recommended 5 contractors to her . All were good. She did not pay her final bill to the contractor for the excellent work that was performed. She also had no problem with the plans I drew. This rating should be removed immediately. He problem (which did not exist) was with the contractor and not John Woodruff Architect.

John is a refreshing change in the world of renovations. He is prompt and delivers exactly what he tells you he will do and in the time frame he states. Which, he moved really fast. He had our drawings done in about a week. This might be a little unusual, but we had a layout and design that was very well thought out by us and he drew exactly what we wanted. I highly recommend John. He is an outstanding individual and gets the job done.
Description of Work: John drew renovation plans for our home.

He was very responsive. He spent a lot of time with us. His price was pretty reasonable compared to others.
Description of Work: He did the plans for my original house. This past year he did the plans for an attached converted garage and breezeway.
