3 Reasons We Recommend Working With a Design-Build Firm On Your Next Remodel
At MiLar Design and Build, we strongly believe that keeping your remodel project in the same hands from concept to completion ensures the best experience and end result. Your remodel is too important to risk the miscommunications, delays, and stresses that can arise when working with multiple parties. The design-build approach offers several major advantages over the traditional design-bid-build method. Here are the top three reasons why we recommend working with a design-build firm for your next remodel.
A More Efficient Remodel Process
The most significant advantage of working with a design-build firm is the efficiency factor. This approach makes the remodeling process so much more efficient than the traditional process, where two different companies are necessary to complete the subsequent phases of a design project. The traditional design-bid-build method requires an architect and/or designer for the initial phase of planning and design, and a general contractor for the build phase. In contrast, working with a design-build firm will simplify the process, ultimately increasing efficiency and making for a faster project timeline.
More Control Over Budget and Timeline
When working with a design-build company, you have a single point of contact that has the necessary information to manage every component of your project, seeing it through from start to finish. From managing scheduling and project timelines to staying within budget, remodels are notoriously stressful. Often when multiple parties are involved, scheduling and budget are compromised. Working with a design-build company prevents cost discrepancies and scheduling delays, as there is a singular party that is solely responsible for delivering a positive project outcome.
Clear Communication From Start to Finish
Working with one company to carry out the design and build of your remodel gives you a single point of contact throughout the duration of the project. Often, the biggest point of miscommunication occurs at the handover: when the project is handed off from design to construction. The structure of the design-build process mitigates miscommunication and oversight by eliminating the middleman. Because the same team is responsible for the design and the build, you can rest easy knowing that what was initially designed and discussed will be carried out through construction.
