We are a referral-based full service architecture firm. As such, we do not monitor Angi closely. Please see our website for more information and reviews. (Reviews are also viewable on Google). Luke has spent the past 15 years immersed in the art of architecture—developing what one client called a “rare combination” of astute design sensibility, technical know-how, and client-centric service. Luke’s experiences span the country, ranging from rural and coastal estates, homes in garden districts and urban areas, historic renovations, institutional buildings such as schools and churches, hospitality, and commercial mixed-use buildings. In each circumstance, he applies a passion for design and a genuine desire to make people happy. As another client stated, “He has impeccable taste and aesthetics – which combined with his architectural skills and passion result in the collaboration of a lifetime.”

Washington Engineering has been serving the greater western Washington area since 1996. We specialize in residential engineering, building design and home energy evaluations. There is no project too big or too small.

"We have worked with Washington Engineering for two different projects in the last 9 months. In both cases, we worked with Bryson who was very responsive and courteous. The plans were generated in a timely manner. The cost was very reasonable…though this is of course secondary to safety and compliance. I would not hesitate to use their services again. Thanks Bryson and team! "

"Josh has always been prompt and communicative with every interaction we've had. I initially got in touch with him about new construction design questions, and when we discovered that our current home porch posts had rotted through due to faulty design by the original home designer, Josh jumped into action. He had his engineer and construction crew to our door within 24 hours to take a look and put together a plan. He took my design ideas and brought them to life. He was transparent about all parts of the cost (to include his profit), and gave us to option to lower the cost by hauling away debris and painting the porch (which we were more than willing to do). Any delays with the work were met with a phone call and followup email if he didn't get through to either my husband or I immediately, and the construction crew did very high quality work. We were beyond pleased with his customer service! We will definitely use Revival Home Designs in the future when we decide to build our forever home."

Building design services FAQs

In most cities, you’re required to have a building permit in order to construct a pool house on your property. The exact type of permit varies by region—in some areas, it might cost as much as $2,700 to get the necessary permits, while other cities don’t require any permits for structures under 200 square feet.

If you’re building a custom pool house, you can expect the entire process to take two to three months from the design phase to the end of construction, or even as much as a year for very large or complex pool houses. If you’re installing a prefabricated kit or shed, the process is much faster—usually one to three days.

Most pool houses can range from 100 square feet to 800 square feet. Smaller pool houses are about 100 to 150 square feet, while a spacious pool house is at least 300 square feet.
