Praise from Clients

Sarah is a literal genius at helping folks of all ages to create projects they can only dream of.

She helped design and implement a building camp, “Building a New World”, where she trained campers and young as 3 and as old as 50 to build a structure from a drawing. At the beginning of the week, it seemed impossible. By the end of the week, it was designed, negotiated, planned, and built. Everyone involved became more competent builders, and we are forever inspired by her work and care.

When I had a vision for an outdoor building built in a spiral with materials that mattered, I knew Sarah Wagner was the one to call since we have worked together for several projects over the years. She came in and got folks from 2 to 50 to help build the structure out of found materials in our own space, and got folks who had never built before as well as experienced builders to work together. We always think of Sarah when we are doing a project and are so glad when she has space for the build.

Sarah Wagner translated documents that were impossible to decipher into a visual language that all types of learners can understand. She makes individual and communities come to life, and I highly recommend her to help you bring your plans to clarity and to life”

“I had a big event happening at my house and I needed plaster repair work done.  it was not a huge amount of work and I decided to take the job on myself.  I took pictures and went to the hardware store that the area I showed them needed to be cut out and drywall put up.  This did not sit well with me.  So I sent Sarah pictures and we discussed how to fix it properly and it did not need to be cut out.  I followed her guidence and it came out great!  I used the technique for other areas.  She has only given good direction with the proper materials.  ”

“I hired Sarah to review a home inspection report and provide her expert recommendations about priority issues that needed to be addressed by the seller. Her review was comprehensive, her suggestions were practical and educated me about which issues should be remedied by the seller. She even caught a couple of concerns with the house that the inspector missed. 

I highly recommend Sarah as the Building Doula. Her professionalism, ethics, and construction knowledge are top notch. She is an excellent teacher and will provide supportive coaching you as you plan, manage, and execute a construction DIY project.”
