Days to Fix Leak
64
Days Total

Sloped Backyard Deck Remodel
Remodel

Residential Remodel with Sloped Deck

Utah

Challenge: Unstable soil on a steeply sloped lot was causing the existing deck to settle unevenly, creating safety concerns and water drainage problems.

Resolution: ACS conducted soil stabilization, redesigned the deck footings for the slope, and integrated a rainwater harvesting channel to eliminate drainage issues at the source.

Outcome: Structurally secure deck delivered with no cost overruns. Added rainwater harvesting as a bonus improvement — client got more than they asked for.

Full Home Renovation with ADU Addition
ADU Addition

Full Home Renovation + ADU

Utah

Challenge: Permitting was blocked because the proposed ADU shared utilities in a way that violated local zoning codes — a problem discovered after plans were already drawn.

Resolution: ACS worked with the city planning department, revised the utility separation plan, and resubmitted permits with a compliant design — all while keeping the build schedule intact.

Outcome: Completed ahead of schedule. Fully code-compliant ADU and main home renovation delivered without cost increases.

Renovation with Foundation Moisture
Remodel

Renovation with Foundation Moisture Issue

Texas

Challenge: Moisture intrusion from a sloped yard had been weakening the foundation perimeter over time — discovered during renovation prep, not the original scope.

Resolution: ACS isolated the moisture path, applied waterproof barrier treatment, and regraded the surrounding soil to redirect water flow — all completed within one week.

Outcome: Foundation issue resolved in under a week. Renovation continued on schedule with no cost overrun. Client saved significantly versus a full foundation repair.

Master Bathroom Addition
ADU Addition

Master Bathroom + Kitchen Addition

Utah

Challenge: Client wanted a private master bath but the home had no room to expand without eliminating key living space.

Resolution: ACS identified the underused garage as the expansion opportunity, converting it to accommodate both a master bath suite and an open-concept kitchen — a solution the client hadn't considered.

Outcome: Client received a master bath and a fully upgraded kitchen — more than the original request. Delivered on budget with zero living space lost.
