I am really sad to write this, I was really happy to work with a small local business but our project turned catastrophic : the deck "SAZEN design" did for us did not pass our city inspection, for multiple failure causes. I know inspectors are sometimes very hard to please, but he pointed out how this was the worst he had seen in a while. Now we have spend a lot of money, our project is not signed and SAZEN design owner is not even returning our calls or emails. I really liked her as a person when I hired her so this has been really painful. I had high hopes hiring a small architect, this has been the most horrific experience (and I have owned and remodeled houses in USA and also in France).
