“We came to Barley & Pfeiffer after exploring a lot of options for our old but not-distinctive house. We were impressed with the way Peter Pfeiffer's house, which we saw on a home tour, embodied sustainable building practices without looking funky. We wanted a project that would incorporate the details that we loved from our old house with smart, energy efficient construction and a contemporary layout suitable for our growing family. We found that Barley & Pfeiffer as a firm provided all the skills we needed to come out at the end with the house we wanted. Alan's design skills, Peter's building science knowledge, and Scott's detailed project management work all combined to give us a beautiful house that works really well for our family, has very low maintenance requirements, and consumes dramatically less energy than most other houses, both of a similar size and much smaller. The money we have not spent on heating and cooling this house in the past seven years could well pay for a new car. If you are going to spend the money to substantially renovate an existing home or build a new home, think carefully about what it will cost to maintain what you end up with. "Green building" is a trend now and many builders and architects claim to be "green," but few firms have the depth of expertise and years of dedication to sustainable building that Barley & Pfeiffer can provide. What you spend up front on excellent design and construction management will be recouped many times over in savings on the cost of living and maintenance. We enjoyed working with Barely & Pfeiffer and would choose them again.”

“We had a wonderful home building experience and were so thankful that we used Todd. We only interviewed one other builder, but there was something about Todd and what he said that made us decide to choose him. We were 1st time builders and didn't even check his references or know the right questions to ask before we decided on him. It wasn't until the building process when we saw our home coming together that we started to fully appreciate all the aesthetic skill Todd had to offer. We would ask how this or that would be, and he would sometimes use the phrase "let's see what the house calls for when we get to that point". We began to realize how special and unique that flexibility and sensitivity in a builder really was. Our home is stunning and if we ever decide to build again, we wouldn't consider using anyone else. Linda and Bob Elliott”

“I've worked with Brian on several projects and I highly recommend him for anyone searching for a reliable, knowledgeable architect. Brian always listens closely to what I am looking for in a design and then carries that out. His knowledge of the industry is evident from his work and recommendations! He is always responsive, timely and provides great service through and through. 5 stars!”

“I have been using David Potter for some time for architectural drawing and design work. I and more importantly my customers have been nothing but pleased. No only has David done what was asked but he has time and time gone above and beyond. Using his years of architectural experience to enrich my concepts and design. Needless to say this has put money on my pocket and enlarged my referral base. I highly recommend David Sincerely J. Cody McFadyen”

“We needed a pavilion to go alongside our new pool. I reached out to Kyle with a basic description of what we needed and he was able to quickly provide an initial plan. I gave feedback on what we wanted changed--basically have it be more modern than traditional--and within a couple days, he came up with a really impressive design that met all our needs!! The plan detailed all of the material specifications and hardware. I realized I needed to add an existing deck to the plan and Kyle offered to do that for free! For a small fee, he also provided takeoffs that let me know exactly the amount of material I needed. For the build, I feel much better about going with a contractor that I haven't worked with before because I know everything they need is in the plan, and I can even inspect their work myself based on the plan! I highly recommend Kyle and would definitely go with him the next time I need to build anything! I'll post pictures when the build is done.”

“We used Jack to help us remodel our kitchen. We came it him with lots of ideas and he came up with several options for us. We worked through those options together and came up with a great design that fits all our needs and our budget. Jack covers every detail, takes the time to walk you through those details, is friendly and professional. I would recommend him to anyone doing a remodel! He gave us our plans in a timely manner and was accurate on the cost. We really enjoyed working with him.”

“We were fortunate to work with PACT Design when we renovated the interior our 1950’s ranch style home (Woodland Project). Their work is highly professional, consistent, well-thought-out, and executed with such attention to detail and delight. We couldn’t be happier with the outcome. Working with Pact Design was a pleasure and definitely the best money we spent on our renovation.”

“In the absence of an eloquent narrative, let me be succinct. Adamant Design Group delivered plans for my wife's and my dream home, our forever home. They took the specs from us and the builder, and transformed that into plans which far exceeded our expectations. They were also quick to turn things around and help us with changes when we identified elements we wanted to move around at the last minute.”

“Wade was incredible to work with-- he really listened to our wants and needs for our project and was very detailed oriented. We loved the bathroom he designed for our home and our builder was very impressed with the level of detail that was in the plans. Cannot wait to work with him on future projects!”

“After a fire and a total loss, a home builder referred me to Alan Baldwin Designs. He took a meeting over lunch and just drawing what i was rambling that i wanted and designed my service center. From start to finish he was there to help with any and all questions, no matter what time of day. Would HIGHLY RECOMRND Alan Baldwin Designs to anyone”
