Our Services
DSA Compliance Consulting
Public school and community college construction in California falls under the jurisdiction of the Division of the State Architect (DSA), a process that demands specialized knowledge most firms don’t maintain in-house. Amador Architecture provides plan review preparation, check-set correction protocols, back-check coordination, and project close-out certification — helping prime firms move K-12 and higher education projects through DSA efficiently and avoid the costly delays that come from procedural missteps. With 23 years of DSA project experience, the firm functions as a ready-made compliance resource your team can rely on from submittal through close-out.
ADA & Accessibility Services
California leads the nation in accessibility litigation, and compliance with California Building Code Chapter 11B is both a legal necessity and a design challenge. Amador Architecture provides accessibility plan review during design, code compliance analysis, and remediation guidance for public and commercial projects. As a licensed architect, the firm advises on accessibility requirements throughout the design and construction process.
Federal Construction Support
(NAVFAC & USACE)
Federal construction projects carry their own standards, documentation requirements, and quality management protocols. Amador Architecture provides construction quality management, technical inspection, submittal review, and coordination support for NAVFAC and USACE projects located in California. The firm’s principal holds USACE Construction Quality Management certification (CQM-C), bringing federal-grade quality oversight to prime contractors who need licensed architectural support on California-based federal work.
Forensic Architecture & Public Witness
When construction disputes, defect claims, or insurance matters require expert architectural analysis, Amador Architecture provides building condition assessments, construction defect investigation, building code compliance analysis, standard-of-care opinions, and expert witness testimony. This work draws on 23 years of hands-on construction experience across diverse building types and regulatory environments.
Amador Architecture accepts select small-scale design work including accessory dwelling units (ADUs), residential additions, tenant improvements, and accessibility modifications. These projects receive the same licensed-architect attention as the firm’s consulting work, delivered with direct principal involvement from concept through permitting.
