They did a 57 page report of the entire building which I took to LnI in Philadelphia with architectural drawings to get a make safe permit. The LnI staff explained the report and prints could not be used because it has things not pertaining to the violation. I explained this to these people ans my architect. My architect got me updated drawings and these people at Magda especially someone name Chris are so arrogant telling me I undercut them because I used another company to do the drawings and his report is well done. They are so unprofessional and shouldn't be used. I spent $1300 and still can't get them to update the report so I can get the permit. Now I have to spend another $750 for a new report that only focuses on the violation. Waste of time and money....a horror show.

When we lost our home in a house fire, we were thrown into complete shock, uncertainty and outright…read moredespair. In the middle of trying to understand insurance, inspections, and the many hurdles of rebuilding, I asked several friends and neighbors familiar with the construction business if they knew of a trustworthy contractor. Every one of them told me that no such thing exists. I can say, unequivocally, that they were wrong. Third Story Philly is exactly that--and more. From the very beginning, while mourning our home, our belongings and our beloved animals, Phil Katz stepped in with a level of care and expertise that changed everything for us. His knowledge is both broad and considered, spanning design, permits, zoning, financing, and the many specialty projects that arose during the process. Phil helped us navigate an overwhelming process when we were in a state of unparalleled grief and had truly no idea what we were doing. He also brought with him a network of high-quality vendors and specialists throughout the city, which ensured that every aspect of our project met the highest standards. 3rd Story Philly built us out dream home--a highly unique, fully custom house filled with unusual ideas and one-of-a-kind details. Zach not only understood our vision immediately, but he also executed every single unconventional request with precision and artistry. His craftsmanship elevated our ideas into a finished home that is even more beautiful than we imagined. Throughout the project, both Phil and Zach were unfailingly responsive and present. Every call was answered, every concern was addressed, and every problem that came up was solved with patience and clarity. Their team's work is impeccable, and the end result is a home that is structurally flawless and stunning in its design. They gave us a lifeline with the dedication of true professionals and renewed our faith in the goodness of people. At a time when we felt like we couldn't trust anyone with our best interests, Phil and Zach proved themselves to be people of rare integrity. I would recommend them without hesitation and would happily provide a verbal or written reference to anyone considering a project with them.

This type of project is challenging for even the most prepared homeowners, and I can't imagine going through this process with anyone else. Zach, Phil, and other members of the 3rd Story team are easy to work with, communicate clearly, and responded well to obstacles that arose during the process. They helped us navigate the drafting of architectural drawings, structural engineering, and the myriad design choices that needed to be made. Overall, they completed the work within our schedule and helped us address our space needs in a personalized way that will allow our family to stay in our home as long as we like. If you are considering this type of project, I definitely recommend a consultation.
