5 Benefits of Working with a Design Build Firm

When it comes to completing a remodeling or construction project, there are many ways you can go. One option that a lot of people don’t think about is working with a design-build firm like Kingdom & Co.

A design-build firm is a company that provides both design and construction services all under one roof. That means, rather than working as your own general contractor and hiring separate architects, designers, contractors, and sub-contractors, you work with one dedicated team throughout the entire process from conception to completion.

Kingdom & Co. is a design build-firm. Our design build remodeling process was created to save you headaches and money. Below we will list the top five benefits of working with a design-build firm like ours.

1. Streamlined Communication

One of the biggest advantages of working with a design-build firm is streamlined communication. Working with and coordinating individual designers and contractors is challenging. The hardest part is making sure everyone is on the same page at the same time, so communication is critical. Miscommunication between contractors can lead to delays, mistakes, and extra costs.

With a design-build firm, there is a single point of contact – the project manager. The project manager works with the entire team to make sure that everyone is working towards the same goal. They also ensure that you, the homeowner, are informed at each stage of the project. Not only is this process more efficient, but it also gives you the peace of mind that the job is going as planned and as scheduled.

2. Cost Savings

Working with a design-build firm can save money. The design and construction teams are part of the same company, and they work together to find cost-effective solutions. For example, the design team creates a plan. The construction team can suggest ways to save on materials and labor to make the build more cost effective. And then they can work together to create the best solution for the lowest cost.

Additionally, since design-build firms know what the costs of construction are, they can design to a budget rather than designing the project that you later realize is well beyond your budget.

3. Faster Project Completion

Design-build companies generally complete jobs more quickly. That is because individual contractors and subcontractors need to wait until each is finished with their respective jobs before moving on to the next. If one contractor is delayed, either at your remodel or at another job elsewhere, that delays the entire project.

At a design-build firm, however, the design and construction teams work together from the very beginning to create plans and schedule timetables that help the renovation run more efficiently and smoothly. Plus, like when working with Kingdom & Co., you get a dedicated team that works on your project and your project only. It is rare that someone gets pulled from one job to work at another. You will see the same people every day and can be confident that they know exactly what the construction status is from day to day. This generally results in a faster project completion time.

4. Increased Accountability

When you work with a design-build firm, there is a greater sense of accountability because we are all on the same team and work for the same company. Their reputation is on the line with every job, so they are invested in making sure that the project is successful and that you are happy with the final product.

There is no finger-pointing between separate contractors. No passing the buck. Instead, the design build firm takes full responsibility for their work and takes pride in their craftsmanship.

5. Customized Solutions

Finally, working with a design-build firm allows for customized solutions. At Kingdom & Co., for example, we understand that every family is unique, therefore, every project is unique. There are no cookie-cutter solutions. Every decision is made with your specific wants, needs, and vision in mind.
