The right support for your property.
Professional in every part of the process.
People
You speak with an executive, not a salesperson. The same leadership stays with your project from the first call through final approval, and is responsive at every step.
Product
Drawings, scans, and documentation prepared to be filed, reviewed, and built from. You know what you will receive before work begins.
Process
A defined sequence of meetings, questions, and decisions settles the scope early and keeps every step clear.
Price
Set fees for defined work. When a property needs more, we review it with you upfront, before anything is added.
The Architects
Meet Phil and Frank.
The names clients mention in their reviews. There are no salespeople at PKAD. You work directly with Phil and Frank from the first call through final approval, and they stay responsive throughout.
“Frank always picks up the phone and responds to emails minutes after they are sent.”
