    Featured Reviews for Design-Build Contractors & Firms in Ann Arbor

    Matrix Home Solutions
    Design-Build Contractors & Firms in Ann Arbor
    Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJune 7, 2013
    “I had about a third of my basement, about 550 sq. ft., completed using the Matrix Basement System. This r-18 rated, water proof, mold proof, mildew proof system (4' by 8' panels) was perfect for protecting my investment. They also did my drop ceiling, all electrical, hvac work and installed the three doors we added. The total process took about 4 weeks. The work crew was very professional. They worked with me in coordinating the parts of this project that I had other contractors complete and made the whole experience very enjoyable. My completed basement blends in with the rest of my house. The insulated panels keeps the humidity down and the temperatures at the same level as my upstairs level. I love it.”
    Labra Design Build
    Design-Build Contractors & Firms in Ann Arbor
    Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsAugust 4, 2013
    “We wanted our bathroom completely redone and Rufino of Labra Design Build handled the whole project from start to finish. I gave him my list of must haves and he designed a digital rendering of what it would look like. From demolition to the final result he was always clean, courteous and considerate of our lives as he worked around us. We love our new bathroom and wish we had done it sooner. We would not hesitate to hire Labra Design Build for any other project and we highly recommend him.”

    Ventures Design
    Design-Build Contractors & Firms in Ann Arbor
    Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsNovember 18, 2014
    “We are extremely happy with our Patio, Spa and Fire Pit project done by Brandon, Alex, Jake and the entire Lawn Guru crew. The ideas for our backyard were taken into account and made better than we could have ever imagined. The finished product exceeded our greatest expectations. They were very up front about all costs, and pulled out all the stops to make sure we met our deadline. When pre-existing problems in our lot became evident they brought in appropriate experts to make sure the issue was taken care of. They wanted to make sure it was done right the first time, and that we wouldn't have any issues 10, 20 years down the line. Every detail was thought of and the attention to detail these guys have is amazing. We would highly recommend the Lawn Guru team for any project!”
    Kendall Design Build
    Design-Build Contractors & Firms in Ann Arbor
    Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsNovember 29, 2017
    “I’d like to thank Terri of Kendall Custom Homes for an overall successful transaction. She understood my situation of being a first-time homebuyer and worked hard to address my concerns, customize the home to my preferences and meet tight deadlines. Her prices were fair and transparent and the property easily passed a scrutinous inspection by TechniHouse. I recommend KCH to any homebuyer in SE Michigan.”

    “Design, craftsmanship, creativity and personnel--all were exceptional. They really understood the "look and feel" we wanted the house to have, and showed terrific commitment (even passion) to its design and construction. Their enthusiasm for the project rivaled ours. Meadowlark very successfully built us the home we had envisioned when we first thought about this project. Highly recommended.”

    MainStreet Design Build
    Design-Build Contractors & Firms in Ann Arbor
    Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsFebruary 3, 2012
    “MainStreet Design Build is an extremely talented and professional firm. That's our kitchen in the Baldwin picture. Our craftsman style house was built in 1922. We love it for all of the woodwork and charm inside. We therefore needed a company that would respect and complement the historic style of our home, but update the kitchen with more space and ammenities for the way we function as a family today (kitchens were very small back in 1922!). We got all of that and more. We have incredible cabinetry with custom wood work and we love our eat in area. The kitchen totally flows with the rest of our home, but really is our crown jewel. We still "WOW" friends when they walk into the kitchen - it is absolutely beautiful and timeless and I wouldn't change a thing. MainStreet's incredible vision and their attention to detail are their greatest assets. From the beginning of the project until the end, the MainStreet staff was engaged and focused on us as the customer. We highly recommend MainStreet and would hire them again in a second - they truly are experts at what they do! ”

    When building a new house, people often turn to architects to kick off the project. However, a different model is becoming quite popular: home design-build. Instead of dividing tasks between separate architecture and construction companies, you can hire a full-service design-and-build company in Ann Arbor to complete your entire project, from initial sketches through final construction. Learn more about how to choose the right design-build pros for your home project below:



    What is a design-build firm in Ann Arbor?


    Design-build firms take on the responsibilities of architects, contractors, and construction companies, all under one roof. These full-service firms focus on a streamlined design-build process — from the initial design to the estimating phase to physical construction — in the hope of creating an efficient experience for both the client and the company. Because the entire project is happening within one company, design-build services are able to overlap the design and construction phases of the project, which often speeds up the project significantly. In addition, these firms work to minimize risks for the project owner through single-point responsibility contracts. However, depending on the firm, you may still want to contact an interior designer or other design-build architect in Ann Arbor to help create the exact look you want.

    Before deciding on a residential design-and-build company, think about what you want from your new home. Do you want a large kitchen for entertaining? Do you need several bedrooms for children and guests? Do you want a finished basement for extra space or storage? Look for design-build architects that specialize in the areas you're looking for. Budget is obviously a determining factor in the outcome of your project. To make sure you stay within your means, consider making a must-have list and a wish list. Gauge where the estimates are falling to determine which home design-build contract can realistically strike the balance between the two.



    Questions to ask a prospective Ann Arbor design-builder:


    • How long have you been in the house design-build construction business?
    • How many projects like mine have you completed?
    • Who will be working on the project?
    • Are the workers employees or subcontractors?
    • Can you provide me with references?
    • Who is your designer, and what are his or her qualifications?
    • Are your employees licensed and insured?
    • How do you charge, and what does that include?
    • Can you give me a written estimate?
    • What do your services include?
    • When can this job get done?
    • What happens when cost exceeds the budget? What about changes to materials or labor pricing?
    • What will I need to provide?
    • Are there any important considerations or concerns you foresee with this project?
