Francisco helped me with legalization of ADU in San Francisco. Anyone who has worked with San Francisco building requirements and getting work done in the city knows how challenging it can be. Francisco is extremely knowledgeable about how things works in the city, He guided me through the entire process. When my plans changed, he helped navigate the complex system. He was patient and responded in a timely fashion. I am very thankful, especially given how busy he is. You are in good hands if you work with Francisco.

Francisco was thorough in reviewing our house so that we could complete our 100+ year old restoration. He went back and forth between DBI and our home project making sure that everything was just right. We enjoyed working with Francisco; he’s an easy person to talk to and knew what was needed to get our permits approved.

Architects SF has been a steadfast partner for us through 10+ complex, multi-million dollar renovations in San Francisco. Our projects range from $300,000 to $2,000,000 in renovation budget. They are the “go-to” for us whenever we get stuck with the city’s ridiculous permitting process. Their knowledge and persistence has gotten us unstuck numerous times, which clearly sets them apart from other architects.
