Working with Pacific Home Source on the design of our home was a wonderful experience. Gabe Spruell was our second designer; we had fired the first one for being behind schedule and way over budget. In contrast to our first experience, Gabe was very responsive and worked quickly and for a reasonable price. Because we had been working on the house for a while, we basically knew what we wanted. Even so, Gabe was very creative and came up with several new design elements that we incorporated. As we worked on the design, Gabe made many useful suggestions and gave us valuable advice on what would and would not work from a design perspective. He was engaged, flexible, and a pleasure to work with...Read More
My husband and I bought a 123 year old farmhouse that was much too small for our family. We had bought it in hopes of enclosing an existing carport to create more space for our family. We stumbled upon Pacific Home Source. Gabe went above and beyond for our family. After drawing up the plans, he got us in touch with an amazing engineer to finish the document process. Fast forward 16 months, Gabe called us to check in on the process and to see if he could get pictures of our fireplace that was part of the addition plans. Unfortunately, we were still dealing with getting our septic approved through the county so we had not started the project. Interestingly enough, we were contacted by the cou...Read More
Over almost two decades of expertise in architectural design has fueled Gabe's passion for creating extraordinary living and working spaces. Beyond technical skill, he emphasizes client collaboration, fostering open dialogue to bring ideas to life and cultivate seamless partnerships.
Gabe Spruell was recommended to us by a friend. We wanted to remodel our home with an addition to make it a place where we can enjoy life as we age. He came to our home and listened to our needs and desires. He made suggestions about things we had not even considered. After our preliminary plans were made, we met again to go over anything we wanted to change. He was open to finding solutions. When the plans were finalized, he sent them to a permitting company and a structural engineer. He has also recommended contractors who he has worked with that he knows will be a good fit for us. We feel that Gabe and Pacific Home Source is our first call if we need anything moving forward with o...Read More
Gabe did a great job being enthusiastic, patient, professional, communicative and supportive throughout the design process. He didn't hold back his recommendations but also supported the homeowner's decisions that didn't incorporate a few of his ideas. His additional background in engineering and working with the county was very valuable. He provided great value and went the extra mile to give us much more than we had asked for. The resulting home is everything the homeowner wanted and is highly enjoyed and praised by family and friends.
Gabe helped us come up with a great design for our new house. His knowledge helped us save significant construction cost yet meet our goals and objectives. He helped our engineers and land use experts put together a package that we are confident will meet the approval of city regulators.
Gabe at Pacific Home Source was professional, informative and always willing to go the extra mile to make sure that our project design went off without a hitch. He provided advise and design ideas to make sure that our "wish list" made it into the final product with an absolutely beautiful result. Plans were approved in record time due to his extra effort in working personally with the county to answer questions and provide additional documentation. I give him my highest recommendation.
Gabe at Pacific Home Source was referred to me by my engineer to design an addition on a fixer home that I purchased. Gabe was immediately responsive to my needs and set an appointment to meet at the site in the first week. Upon meeting with Gabe, I was impressed by his detail and knowledge of the most efficient design for cost savings as well as appeal. In my many years of remodeling and flipping homes, it has always been rare to find a knowledgeable and energetic designer and Gabe is exactly that. I plan on continuing our relationship into future projects and highly recommend him for his communication, attention to detail, accountability, and analysis regarding construction cost saving...

Simple, straight-forward, in-touch with trends, conservative, forward-thinking, great taste; these are just a few of the things that come to mind after working with Pacific Home Source.
Gabe and his team are simply amazing. We worked with Pacific Home Source for our third major remodel in 20 years (all different homes), this one a to-the-studs update of a MCM rambler. The biggest difference: they really listen. Everything that was important to us, plus a few bright ideas we never would have considered, is thoughtfully included in our plans. Additionally, the design work was on time, on budget, exactly as discussed. Would give them 6 stars, if that was an option.
Gabe was excellent to work with on my detached shop project. He was very helpful with changes and alterations that had to be done during the permitting process and was always happy to help and answer any questions that I had.

Gabe was great to work with on our custom A Frame cabin.

Gabe did an outstanding job designing our remodel. His attention to detail and thoroughness was especially appreciated throughout the permit process with the City of Seattle. Gabe handled the few additional requirements of the City with speed and integrity. Pacific Home Source was a great company to work with and would be a great asset to any project.
Gabe was recommended to us (my wife and I) by a contractor to draw up the plans for our house to be built on an empty view lot. Gabe, my wife and I, and our builder spent, several sessions going through the design and redesign of the house. We had a first set of plans that we really liked, but unfortunately, not connected to Gabe, we had been provided inaccurate measurements for the lot. When we laid out the plans on the lot, they did not optimize the water. Gabe then volunteered to come out to the lot and we got accurate measurements along with a better fit for house. Gabe then drew up a second set of plans and we are thrilled with his work. Gabe provided us with numerous ideas to con...
Gabe did a great job on the plans and design for our house- The only thing better than his design and plan ideas, was his attitude and willingness to help and answer all of our questions. He did everything in a timely manner and was very professional. I would highly recommend Gabe to anyone who wants an honest, hard worker, who does everything the way it should be done.
Home building and renovation projects are always filled with delay, miscommunication, and oddball characters, but Gabe makes the design part of the process a welcome breeze. He was remarkably helpful and responsive as our custom Port Orchard home project "evolved" over three years. His efficiency, expertise, and courtesy are great; just as importantly, he's a genuinely good guy. Highly recommended!Read More
I've worked with Gabe at Pacific Home Source for years. This project, however, has taken extra attention to detail.

I have hired Gabe for two professional jobs and one personal. Each time he has met or exceeded my expectations. He is always fair, professional, and a pleasure to work with.Read More
Drawings as we continue toward application have been excellent. Through the vagaries and opaque process of permitting, Gabe has been a consistent positive advocate with deeper knowledge and enthusiasm than even I seem to maintain. In addition, he has helped develop further resources for quality materials and technical review that I would not have discovered without his guidance. Finally, I like working with Gabe. Response is immediate and solutions are always within sight.Read More
Unbelievable job designing our home! I came to Gabe with a design in mind and he put it to paper exactly how i drew it up.. Will definitely recommend to anyone looking at building:)Read More

Yes 5 stars. Gabe and Megan and his team of designers are the best. My wife and I had a very good Experience with Pacific Home Source. The job was an addition extending the entire wall of the house 8 feet. So this included, concrete foundation, framing walls, roof rafters, flooring, windows for a kitchen and dining room. The heart of the house was changed. Also in the back yard a pavilion was built. The drawings were great and Gabe suggested a good engineer to size and draw details for the large beams of the pavilion. All drawings were used in all inspections and the job passed all inspections!
