PRAISE FOR JEFF ZOOK
Jeff Zook, the principal architect of the firm, is described as a true professional with seemingly infinite knowledge of code, construction, and architecture. He has been praised for his ability to navigate complex projects and provide expert guidance to clients.
COMBINATION OF SERVICES
The firm has experience in working on a wide range of projects, from multifamily residential buildings to single-family homes, and even small ADUs.

ROOM FOR IMPROVEMENT
One potential area for improvement is the firm's response to client requests for documents. One client reported being unable to obtain the original project drawings for a 130,000 SF facility despite multiple requests. This experience was frustrating and may have fallen short of the client's expectations.
