Design/Build

This is where homeowners select a building contractor to assist them with their project from the conception. Because of our long trusting reputation, most of our projects start in this fashion. We will work with our designers and architects to help manage the cost and to guide the project to a predetermined budget. We can also work with an existing architect that you have already selected. We do not charge for our time during this process. This planning is well worth the time to better insure your project's cost before starting. The cost for any designing or architectural drawings is separate and not included. Experience has shown that projects involving the contractor at the beginning stages insure more mutual understanding, control of your decisions, and realistic budgets decided on beforehand!

Choosing your own Architect and Contractor

Questions to ask & research:

  • How long have they worked in the area?
  • Type of projects they favor?
  • Are there records of complaint with city/state agencies?
  • Past job references.
  • Attitude/workability/personality/service.
  • Are they opposed to working on a design/build project?
  • Is there a feeling of trust with the individual?

During the design your project, it is important to know that the home will have good appeal and a resale value that would (at least) pay for the improvements should you decide to sell within 1-2 years.
