  • What is a design-build company?
    A design-build company is a type of construction firm that manages both the design and construction aspects of a project. Unlike traditional methods where the design and construction are handled separately, a design-build company streamlines the process by offering both services under one roof. In comparison, an architect focuses primarily on the design aspect, creating the plans and blueprints for a project. Once the design is complete, the plans are then sent out to contractors for bidding. On the other hand, a general contractor oversees the construction phase of a project. They typically follow pre-existing designs and work with subcontractors to carry out the construction work. With a design-build company, clients benefit from a more integrated approach. By having the design and construction teams working together from the beginning, potential issues can be identified and resolved early on, leading to a smoother and more efficient construction process. This collaborative approach often results in better communication, faster project completion, and reduced change order cost.
  • Do I have to go through the design phase if I already know what I want or have my own plans?
    If you already have specific ideas or plans in mind, that's great! As a design-build company, every project will still go through a design phase with us. Our interior designer will review your plans and provide suggestions or discuss any necessary adjustments. She will also guide you through space and electrical planning, ensuring every outlet, light switch, and dimension in your project is perfectly planned. While selecting materials, our interior designer can take the stress off of the client by doing all of the digging and research to find the right materials to meet your vision. After materials have been selected we can update your renderings with the current materials, giving you an accurate visual of what your space will look like. During the design phase, our interior designer will help you navigate through various decisions that many clients may not initially consider. Proper utilization of the design process can pave the way for a successful construction process and help eliminate change orders and additional costs during construction.
  • How soon can you start on my project?
    We can begin working on the design phase of your custom build, addition, or remodel, once we discuss the scope of work and a design agreement has been signed. As a design-build company, your project will undergo a comprehensive design phase before transitioning into the construction phase. For more detailed information, view Our Process.
