What Is
Design-Build?

Fundamentally, design-build combines design, engineering, and construction services under a single contract, bringing together the roles of designer and constructor. Design-build takes the hassle out of interviewing and coordinating with multiple construction professionals and remodeling contractors during your remodeling process. Hiring a traditional contractor would also mean hiring an architect, an engineer, a designer, and a general contractor. If you are not an experienced remodeler, this can be daunting, especially when it comes to expectations and communication.

Sea Pointe Design & Remodel offers an integrated approach to construction that strengthens cooperation among all parties, ultimately maximizing each participant’s capabilities. With the Design-Build construction concept, we determine quality, cost, and time concurrently. We design your remodel with value engineering in mind.

Value Engineering

Value engineering is only possible with design-build firms because it brings all construction professionals under one roof; this lets your draftsman review as-built floor plans and leverage existing construction and design requirements to lay out your space in the most efficient way, saving you time and money.  This is typically where most of the communication errors happen when hiring a traditional general contractor.  Your architect now becomes your space planner and is not motivated to draw budget-efficient plans; rather, they want to deliver plans that evoke emotion, and both are possible, yet not typically an architect’s concern.  If you go this route, share your budget with your architect and ask how you can design a blueprint that stays within it.  You will need to coordinate with your contractor, as they’ll need plans to price out the job completely.

Whether you want to remodel your kitchen and finally get that island, remodel your bathroom to remove your 80s platform hot tub, or add a room during these more recent ‘sheltering in place’ times to get extra space, we have experts for all home remodeling projects.  You may be considering an ADU (accessory dwelling unit) as a home office, living space for your college student, or even a source of additional income.

Remodeling Design

One of the greatest assets that clients undervalue until they experience it is space planning and design.  Clients often draw on napkins and have flipped spaces, traded rooms, and more.  Expert Designers have the vision to see your full home blueprint and design without lines, giving you the best space for your needs. Time and again, we hear clients say that they had never considered enclosing a small space, enabling them to completely change their home, move their kitchen, giving it an overall better kitchen design, bathroom design, master suites, and the home remodel space list goes on with this sentiment.

Sea Pointe Design & Remodel’s design-build expertise helps clients save money and time, with the peace of mind that their residential remodel will be designed and built to code for safety and investment security.  Our goal is your complete satisfaction when your home remodel is complete.  Over 50% of our business comes from repeat and referral clients, which speaks volumes about the 5-star reviews we receive.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is design build more expensive than project managing myself and shopping myself?

While you may think you will save money by project managing and shopping on your own, you’ll be surprised by how the costs add up, and traditional contractors will issue change orders with higher fees than their initial low quote to deliver exactly what you want.  Because we price everything based on actual materials and measurements, we know every nail in your remodeling job and can account for it.  This is the price you pay unless you request more work.  With the traditional contractor, you’ll get an estimate subject to change (change orders).  The average change order rate with traditional GC’s is 35%, meaning you will pay 35% more than the original estimate.  So while our construction agreement may seem higher than an estimate, we typically come in near or under the change order total by the time you are done.  Keep in mind our volume discounts, which also play into these costs, and value engineering.

Will design build remodeling save me time?

Typically, this saves you time because we have all construction professionals under one roof, making coordination, collaboration, and client meetings much faster.  Each professional works on their piece of the project at the right time, ensuring no ground is broken until we have cabinets and materials ready to start your remodel.  We will not invade your home any longer than necessary and do our best to ensure a pleasurable experience even during the daunting demolition process.  We will keep you apprised of the schedule so you can plan your family’s schedule around the times you don’t want to be there during the remodel. 

Do I need to move out of my home when remodeling with the design build process?

Most of our clients remain in the home during the remodeling process, to the tune of 75%.  We use plastic walls with zippers and clean up every last spec of remodeling at the end of every day.  You can see our reviews and know that people love our installers and sometimes even miss these guys.  Check out our reviews here.

Do you provide 3D color renderings so I can visualize my remodeled space easier?

Design-build firms are specifically known for providing these communication tools to make your home remodel exactly as you picture it.  The 3D color rendering process ensures we get it right on paper before you buy materials, break ground, or consider any financial impact.  This way, if you see a busy backsplash that looked fabulous in a 12” x 12” but absolutely overwhelming in a large display to your ceiling, we can prevent any time delay from returning tile, changes in tile order to reduce the amount used, and actually select exactly what you want once you see all materials together.
