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.

Featured Reviews for Drafting Companies in San Francisco

Impluvium Architecture
Drafting Companies in San Francisco
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsDecember 2, 2025
“We absolutely loved working with Tim to design our dream home! From the moment me met with Tim, he knew exactly what we wanted and brought our vision to life. There were many aspects of our home we didn’t even know we wanted. Working with Tim was so easy and made the stressful process of designing a home seamless. Definitely recommend working with Tim if you’re looking for a fantastic architect!”
Klopf Architecture

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 25, 2025
“We relocated from SE MN in 2024 with the help of Klopf Architecture, whose amazing architects -Angela Todorova and Elise Webb- redesigned my parents' East Bay home from the ground up, creating an Eichler-style open and airy mid century modern from a dark and closed off 1960 era CA ranch. They remained involved not just during the initial planning stages but during the renovation - adding their opinions and recommendations during the building process itself, working with our builders closely to optimize and finesse the renovation. Highly, highly appreciative for their passion, input and guidance! Kari & David”

“Erik was a pleasure to work with on our home renovation project in San Francisco. He was professional, kind, and collaborative. He demonstrated a strong ability to understand and translate our vision into stunning design concepts that fit our style. Our home seamlessly blends modern and natural elements that are inviting and warm. Erik was also very flexible and was able to accommodate changes we wanted. I highly recommend Erik for his design expertise and exceptional client service.”
