Carini Engineering Designs

Todd had the courage to take on a challenging small home redesign! We hired Carini Engineering Desgins to help us "reimagine" the space in our 100 year Fairport Village home. The center of our home was originally a boat house on the Erie Canal before being moved to the street as a dwelling. No floor was level, no wall was plumb and the additions to the house were haphazardly built. Todd carefully assessed the condition and possibilities in the structure of the house. He found that every single wall was load bearing and quipped "your house has surprises around every corner!" From that assessment, Todd generated designs that have TOTALLY TRANSFORMED our living space! We could not be happier with the job Todd and Steve for us, including a custom beam to hold the load of a vaulted ceiling, a custom nook for a gas fireplace and a fabulous kitchen. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the end results. Keeping within the existing footprint of the house, Todd made every millimeter count!

I was referred to Carini and paired with Todd as my architect. We were in sync immediately and my ideas were put to print quickly and without any changes necessary. Their fee was fair and competitive. Todd knew and understood my vision completely! He was a pleasure to work with. I'm looking so forward to bringing the plans to life in the months ahead!

Our first pick was Todd and Steve. They were so over the top when it came to imagination and implementation of our remodel. To go from a traditional single story blah house to wow and everything we wanted and more. Todd is a genius. So many great ideas and budget conscious. Couldn’t be happier.

Working with Todd was such a pleasure. Todd is an outstanding engineer. In addition, Todd closely listened to what we wanted in our home. Todd completely fulfilled our every thought and desire. We look forward and excited to building our dream home following Todd's plans. Thank you Todd.

Creative, timely and efficient in design and detailed plans. The talented team at Carini are responsive to clients' needs and constraints. They worked very hard to meet our design needs and wishes, producing attractive, easy-to-build designs. A pleasure to work with...they are a great group!

Todd did an amazing job designing our home! We chose a plan and modified the heck out of it, making many changes that would satisfy the needs of everyone in our family. Todd was able to make very smart and helpful recommendations and suggestions. He listened to our needs and drew up the architectural plans that would allow the best use of space. I have already recommended Carini Designs to family and friends and will continue to do so. Thank you Todd!

From day one I knew that Todd was going to do a solid job with the design of our new house. However what he produced far exceeded our expectations. Todd does an exemplary job in balancing design concept requests and the best bang for your buck. He uses space very effectively. We thought this would take a significant number of iterations to get things right, but were pleasantly surprised at how we ended up with a killer design in so few meetings. He makes the process easy for the customer, helping to come up with ideas that can accommodate everyone involved. I highly recommend working with Todd at Carini.

Todd Marotta of Carini Engineering Designs created a home design that met every aspect of our new home desires. His design was beautifully executed taking into consideration our new home budget, living style and our sense environment and styling while ensuring an ideal floor plan with the highest design standards. We would highly recommend Todd and Carini Engineering Designs. For us, Todd demonstrated an eye for create the perfect living experience and balanced that within a realistic building budget

Steve Carini and his team was an absolute pleasure to do business with! Excellent design and more importantly he creates a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere to express and bring your ideas to life.

After meeting with a number of architects, we elected to go with Todd and Carini Designs. Our project involved an addition to our home that we built approximately 13 years ago and needed to compliment the existing structure (and not look "tacked on"). Todd carefully listened to our wish list and designed an absolutely amazing concept. This task was accomplished in a very timely and friendly manner with exceptional communication. Todd and the staff exhibited the utmost professionalism and knowledge. Once the preliminary blueprints were made, we interviewed several contractors all of whom complimented the design. The project is near completion at this time and we could not be happier! We cannot give any higher recommendation. Todd and Carini design should be considered for any architectural project. Sincerely, Jason and Jill

Im a remodeling contractor and I contacted Steven to do drawings for a project I was doing. He was able to fit me in. And he sent one of his guys Sean out to the site to go over the things I needed and they turned it around fast. I will totally be using Carini Design on other projects.

Absolutely love Carini's work. Designed our house, and now a garage extension for us. Helped transform our napkin sketches into a real house.

We contacted Carini designs after going to Homearama 2016 and seeing their work. We met with Todd and got along so well with him. He saw our vision and ideas and was able to tweak a design to fit everything we wanted in our house plan. He was down to earth, realistic and easy to talk with. He was very detail oriented and explained everything so we could understand it. He was never pushy, always honest and very knowledgeable. We love our house plan and are excited to be building our dream home!

I enjoy working on houses with Carini. On our most recent project I worked with Todd. They're very good at listening to the client, and providing drawings that capture the client's ideas for the interior and exterior elements. They also incorporate great design with the technical details that I need as a builder. Clients are always happy that they keep the budget in mind, their designs are beautiful, efficient and cost-effective.
