Our Testimonials

Teri Beckett of SKS Engineering worked with my family in Berkeley, CA on our recent house remodel. Teri performed numerous design reviews, at the concept phase and throughout the construction process. Teri was easy to communicate with (on mobile phone and in person), prompt, knowledgeable, and offered great input. She loves construction and loves to support homeowners through the process. Teri also produced a tree protection plan — a city requirement — because she is also a qualified arborist!

– Anand C., PhD, Adjunct Professor

Teri is one of the few people in this world that does what she says she is going to do and does it in a professional and timely manner. She has been a pleasure to work with on every project we have worked on together.

– Charles S., Project Manager

Teri Beckett of SKS Engineering is incredibly organized, intuitive on how to get things done and not only worked within Port guidelines, but assisted in guideline developmentâ€¦. that in itself demonstrates her ability to perform well in what can oftentimes be difficult circumstances, dealing with not only our service contractors but with some of our more traditional Port employees and customers as well.

– Arnold de la C, Crane Engineer

Ms. Beckett worked extremely well with people, our construction management team, the contractors, the environmental regulators assigned to our project, as well as with the public at large. Iâ€™m sure that her ability to coordinate, organize, and to see multiple sides of issues, i.e., from the CM, contractor, as well as from a regulatory standpoint, served to alleviate some possible contentious issues throughout our project.

– Pomsit C., P.E., Senior Project Engineer

My home remodel would not have happened without Teri. Her wide range of skills– from permitting and construction knowledge to project management–proved essential at each step of the renovation process. She is a pleasure to work with, plus she’s detail-oriented, professional, and flexible. Excellent communication abilities with contractors, designers, and city administrators. In sum, things get done with Teri! She is a gem.
