He came and inspected our roof, as we were planning to install solar panels with Tesla. However, Tesla refused to provide a 100% offset and only offered 66%, claiming that there were issues with our roof.

We 100% recommend him!

I specifically requested a civil engineer to look at the drainage situation at our house, along with the waterproofing at our exterior doors. Their web site states that they have civil engineers on staff, and I therefore thought they'd be able to help. In my case, however, they sent a structural engineer and he didn't have a whole lot to say and was apparently unable to comment with any level of detail about the concerns I had regarding drainage or waterproofing. It was honestly just an $1100 waste of time.

When we moved to Oxnard, California two years ago, we did not realize that the parking rules would…read morebe so restrictive. It did not take long for the HOA to make it clear that we had a problem. After a few letters from the HOA delineating the parking rules for both the driveway and the street we searched for a contractor who could remodel the garage to accommodate our 24-foot Sprinter Van. After researching a few companies in the area, we decided on Atlas Builders and Development, Inc. and we were happy to sign a contract with Jacob Lankri, the owner. The first step was to decide on the basic design package. Once that was settled, we submitted the engineered plans to our HOA. After many months of wrangling with the HOA, Gilah Lankri, the project engineer, was able to produce engineered drawings that met the HOA's aesthetics and expectations. Jacob and Gilah submitted the plans to the city of Oxnard. Unfortunately, it took the city of Oxnard a frustrating 10 months to review and approve the plans. All the while, Atlas Builders and Development, Inc. stayed with us determined to get approval. Once we got approval to begin construction in December 2024, the demolition of the old garage was accomplished quite quickly. Even though we hit a snag regarding the Southern California Gas Company line, we eventually got approval to relocate and replace the line which delayed the project 5 weeks. Finally in March 2025 construction of the new Garage began in earnest. Jacob's team, led by an amazing foreman, Edgar, constructed a new elevated ceiling in the garage with new rafters and support beams as well as new tiled roof. The inside of the garage was completely refinished with drywall, texturing and fresh paint. New and improved lighting was installed in the garage along with assorted electrical outlets. The finishing touches included a new door to the backyard, matching the epoxy surfacing on the garage floor and patching preexisting holes in the walls. Outside, new stucco and siding had to be applied as well as painted. The disconnected solar panels and rain gutters were expertly reinstalled. In addition, an area of the driveway had to have pavers reinstalled looking better than before. I addition to the garage remodel project, Atlas Builders and Development, Inc. procured and installed a new sliding glass door complete with a doggy door for access to the back patio. They also removed a set of windows in the dining room and then procured and installed a beautiful set of French doors. Finally, Atlas Builders and Development, Inc. removed an old single front door and expertly installed a beautiful mahogany double front door. All the finishing details were expertly accomplished.

He is familiar with the area's geologists and related vendors. He was very upfront and honest about the right way to proceed with potential foundation issues. Even though he didn't think I had a problem based on house plans and documentation I provided, he was interested in coming out to see for himself. He arrived early, did some measurements, and gave me his opinion. It's not often a professional comes out and basically tells you, "everything is good here," but that's what I got! He gave me some other ideas of cheaper ways to diagnose potential problems (eg, leak test). I was very impressed with Ken's honesty and experience. He saved me a lot of time and money. I highly recommend that you call him if you think you may have a foundation issue.
