Major renovation and second story addition

Pezhman is a self-motivated team member and a pleasure to work with. He demonstrates superior technical ability and produces work of exceptional quality. Pezhman takes the time to fully understand the scope of projects and displays keen attention to detail. Pezhman and his team were able to start and finish the design, architectural and structural drawings of our renovation/addition of a second story. Zoning and permits were handled without hiccups thanks to there professionalism. My wife and I are extremely excited and happy with the final results.

full house structural and architechtural design

We purchased a 90+yro house which needed a full house renovation including basement underpinning. Pezhman and his team (Arvin and Emeline) did a great job from the very start and carefully listened to our needs and desires and guided us with what made sense. Pezhman is very nice and PATIENT and technically knowledgeable which we are very grateful for that because in this business it's very hard to find such people (talking from my personal experience so far!)

Our underpinning drawings got accepted in 2 weeks so we could start the job on time. The rest of our drawings got delayed due to some city complications which were not the Rigid Frames fault, however their superb support was very heartwarming during such stressful time :)

We are very happy with our decision and will definitely recommend them to anyone who's seeking for the best support and results.

Interior Walls Removal

Amazing company to work with. Everything was as promised and on time. They started on the scheduled day and finished before the promised date. I wish there are more companies managed like this to do business with. Thank you Arvin & Pezhman. Highly recommended!

Drawings And Permits For whole house renovation

I purchased my house in June and I planned to do a full renovation of the house plus underpinning of the basement with getting all the required permits from the city. I had the pleasure to find and work with Pezhman and Arvin for that matter and I am really happy about their service.

They did structural and architectural drawings for the whole house renovation which included removing load bearing walls to make an open concept house, cutting out doors and windows, underpinning of the basement, drawing a floor plan for the basement, etc. I also plan to do the HVAC drawing with them as well.

Pezhman and his team were very responsive, helpful, knowledgeable, and experienced. Pezhman has a very likable character, very reasonable person and always open to discussion and new ideas. The fact that he would always take the time to answer all my questions is a big PLUS for them.

I would certainly recommend Rigid Frames for all your drawings needs if you are doing small or big renovations.
Looking forward to getting the revision approval from the city.

Structural Analysis and Drawings for Bathroom Reno

Pezhman provided a structural analysis on a complex bathroom renovation project for my designer and me. He and his team quickly understood our needs, and supplied us with detailed engineering drawings that were very effective in meeting our goals. His work was an important part of helping us move forward with the project.

Permit Drawings and Committee of Adjustment Application

Rigid Frame’s patience all throughout this project (third floor addition, rear extension, underpinning) made our project possible. They were with us throughout the process; we went through the committee of adjustment before the main permit application and we felt that their knowledge, experience and expertise helped to pass all the stages to obtain the permit so we can build our new home. We are very happy and satisfied on how they approach each step. Being one stop shop, they prepared all our architectural, structural and HVA drawings. We also went through several plan changes/revisions during the course and Rigid Frame handle very well. I’m very happy to recommend Rigid Frame for all your drawings needs if you are doing an extensive renovation. We’re also getting a quote from them for the construction and would like to hire them for that stage as well

Structural drawings for open floor plan

We hired Pezhman and Arvin to help us open the floor plan of our home in Woodbridge. This job was for the preparation of structural drawings for permit to remove a pony wall and two columns on the main floor of our house. We have worked with them previously on other projects so naturally they were our first choice for this job. Wow - another great experience! Pezhman and Arvin went our of their way to ensure that our needs were met. This was only a small job but we were taken aback by how much thought and care they took to ensuring all the details were perfect. At the site visit, we spoke about our priorities in this job (e.g. no work in the basement since it is already finished) and they were able to work the design around our needs. We are thoroughly impressed by Rigid Frame Structural Engineers and will certainly use them again for future projects.

Load bearing wall removal

I am taking a load bearing out. Arvin and Pehzman were prompt in providing a quote for the scope of work.
They came to my house (which was out of their way) and took all the measurements necessary and were very detailed and knowledgeable.
Both were very pleasant and polite, and easy to talk to.
Looking forward to seeing the finished drawings
