Hired on Thumbtack

We had to apply for a retroactive permit for a retaining wall. Reza came on-site to inspect the project personally, and revised a reinforcement plan for our project. After the application was submitted, the city demanded several other requirements; Reza handled all the requirements from the city promptly and satisfactorily, and the permit was granted in good time. We find Reza knowledgeable in his profession; most reliable, and always courteous. We highly recommend his service, and would not hesitate to consult with him again.

Details: Retaining wall • Inspection of existing structure, repairs, or new construction • Stamped drawings for building department approval • Residential

We had an excellent experience with Ray. He provided a structural inspection of our house and answered all of our original questions with advice that put our minds at ease and allowed us to save a lot of time and money in the future. He also pointed out other issues with great advice on how to address them. It was a pleasure working with Ray. Highly recommended!

Reza (Ray) Sharifzadeh's reply

At our initial contact you did not explain what is going on. You referred me to your architect Mr. Jeff. He stated that you had Red Tag (stop the construction) from the city of San Anselmo for not acquiring the construction permit. I asked you for the 1.5 hours engineering fee to investigate what is going on by talking to the city engineer and talking and reviewing Mr. Jeff files, plans, photos. It was concluded that there are no structural comments at this time. consequently, no structural assessment was required. All comments were Architectual. I refer to you one of the best architects. After the arduous effort and time spent, how can you ask me to refund the 1.5 hours of engineering fee? I do not know why you do not follow the professional advises. in leu, of the untruthful statements you have stated in your review. Evidence is available upon request.
