Best Experience and Outcome

 

We have had the pleasure of working on two different home remodels with FIRM817, and each time they have gone above and beyond to create a masterpiece for us. Joe and Tracy Self are amazing at listening to our wishes and not only bringing the concept to fruition but enhancing it in ways we could not even have imagined. They have tremendous drive, work ethic, and passion for their work. They are always available to answer any questions and always fully grasping what we were seeking. Each time we have finished a project with FIRM817 we have been grateful for their hard work in ensuring the process went smoothly, the focused attention to detail always delivering a home which enhances our daily lives. Of the previous remodels we have undertaken, those with FIRM817 at the helm are far and above the best experience and outcome. We are truly blessed to have worked with FIRM817 in creating our home.

Made The Whole Process Very Easy

 

After spending years in the restaurant business, I needed to develop my own concept. I had a space in mind and knew I needed a solid architect to help me develop my dream restaurant. After meeting Joe Self with FIRM817 and sharing several conversations about my vision for what I wanted I knew my decision to use Joe as my architect was the correct one. Joe made the whole process very easy – taking what my wants for restaurant functionality and putting them into action throughout the design process.  Here it is 14 years later and Joe’s design of Grace Restaurant in downtown Fort Worth is still a perfect setting for a special occasion or dinner with friends.

We Trust Their Choices

 

When Alan and I decided to add another bedroom to our home, we consulted with the original builder. With the unique modern lines of our house, we did not want to change the integrity of the structure. His recommendation was FIRM817. With Joe and Tracy, we were able to get two professionals bouncing off ideas and coming up with the perfect plan. The addition fit with the original design. After that project came the pool addition and a year after, the kitchen remodel, both done with FIRM817. They created a beautiful outdoor oasis and made efficient use of the small space. When planning the kitchen, they created the new layout to take advantage of the pool view. We trust their choices and will use them for any future upgrades we do to our home.
