What is Design-Build?
At Sordan Construction, we often boast about our great design-build teams and processes. With them, we deliver high-quality remodels and renovations to our clients. But you might be wondering: what is design-build? Does it really make a difference in the construction process? We’re here to answer these burning questions.
Defining Design-Build
In design-build construction, the client enters into a single contract that covers both the architectural design services and the physical construction of the building project. Basically, the designer and contractor work together as a team to fit your schedule and budget. This streamlines the process, as collaboration, communication, and coordination are much easier to organize when everyone is working together, and you won’t need to try and make contact with several different organizations to get things done.
Once considered an “alternative” construction method, it’s become one of the fastest-growing options for construction projects in the USA. In fact, market research conducted by FMI Consulting analysts projects that “design-build will account for 47% of construction spending and 22.5% growth in total design-build spending by 2026.”
The Design-Build Construction Process
The design-build process is infinitely more accessible and simplified than the traditional project delivery method in construction. You’ll get in touch with us and tell us about the home remodeling or renovation project of your dreams. You’ll then enter into a contract with our team of designers and contractors. This team will work together to provide unified project recommendations to fit your schedule and budget.
From there, a team will be assembled to collaborate and create, making your vision a reality with minimal scheduling issues, delays, or extra costs. You’ll have a dedicated project manager as your single point of contact to supervise and coordinate your project. They’ll give you regular updates and answer any questions you may have throughout the design-build process so you can rest assured that the project is in good hands.
Why Use a Design-Build Construction Company?
Design-build construction companies are an innovative and collaborative way to make your construction projects as stress-free as possible. Instead of having to juggle multiple contracts, budgets, and schedules, our team provides everything you need, with contractors and consultants all working under one roof.
This is a major benefit to you. The design-build method has been shown to minimize owner risk and costs, while increasing the speed of the construction process. No more worries about different contractors getting in each other’s way, misunderstandings, blame-shifting, or needing to pass on information to several different parties. As everyone works together on the same team, they’re all invested in collaborating and making the job easy for everyone. If problems arise, they’ll troubleshoot together to solve them. In addition to that, they’ll always be able to contact one another to ask questions and keep everyone on the same page.
If you’re looking to begin a new project on your home, entrust our design-build team with the task. We work together with you to bring your vision to life, all while making the process easy, fast, and within your budget. Contact Sordan Construction today to schedule a consultation.
