How Design-Build Saves You Money and Time
Design-build, done well, can save you thousands of dollars in design fees since architects bill at higher rates than contractors, and architects must create pages of technical details to insure “apples to apples” bids from a variety of bidders.
As an experienced design-build remodeling company, we also take the time during the design phase to learn about your lifestyle and tastes, special concerns, and budget expectations, so that we can then provide a unique, personalized version of the home improvements you want.
Not all design-build companies are qualified to offer top design, and not all projects are suited to design-build. Projects that are too small to involve an architect, simple additions, and whole house renovations that do not significantly alter your house’s size and appearance are typically good candidates for a design-build approach. Home renovations that involve historic architectural preservation and those with complicated, multi-page architectural drawings are least suited to design-build.
A design-build firm offers you more than just an attractive house. From the start, design solutions are strongly rooted in practical application and experience. Project planning takes into account the realities of the construction process and the budget you have established. Because the work is centralized in one firm, the design-build process greatly reduces the chances of costly or time-consuming surprises once the project is under construction.
