My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Mark Dunkley Architecture and Design, Inc.

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsSeptember 4, 2015
“What a visionary! Mark designed our home without much to go on from us other than a list of must haves and a few pictures. His ability to translate this into a plan was nothing short of amazing. His eye for detail will ensure a magnificent finished product. Mark is very easy to work with, and would be an asset to any project!”
RCS Construction
Drafting Companies in Dayton
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsSeptember 2, 2015
“RCS built our dream home on Indian Lake. The most creative and knowledgeable company I have ever had the pleasure of working with. RCS took the time to understand how we live and our design style to give us a home we could never have imagined on our own. Their research team was able to incorporate a loft overlooking a very functional in-door charcoal grill built into the bar. A fun way to entertain in the winter. The exterior hardscape designers created a soft privacy pool area as well as a dynamic sea wall for our boating friends. I cannot recommend RCS enough. Their talented, hardworking, trustworthy team gave us our dream home on time and in budget. I would highly recommend for any building and remodeling needs.”

Matt is creative and extremely knowledgeable about the building process all the way through. Offering us many options to accomplish our goals. Most importantly Matt listened to what we wanted and understood how we lived and has created beautiful, comfortable , spaces for my family! Would highly recommend Matt and wouldn't think of using another architect!”
