Featured Reviews for Carol Stream, IL Design-Build Firms

Synergy Builders Inc.

Carol Stream, IL Design-Build Firms

October 28, 2012

“Synergy Builders came up with a great design idea for our kitchen. We had a challenging layout, and they worked for months to get things just right. They were on time and on budget with the work. The staff offered many valuable ideas and helped us see our vision become reality. The quality of the work was excellent. They have a great attention to detail and aim to please. I highly recommend Synergy Builders.”

Martire Custom Homes

Carol Stream, IL Design-Build Firms

February 1, 2017

“Highly satisfied. My wife and I know the broad sketches of what we wanted, and are very demanding, by have no eye for design. Martire's value-add was a life saver, they handled both design and construction, making for a smooth, integrated process. Because they handle design and construction, the process was also able to evolve over time. Instead of unexpected developments (ducts that cannot be moved, space limitations, etc.) becoming road blocks, they were able to convert them into opportunities to create additional, unique design aspects. And most importantly, they took our wants and created a beautiful space.”

Wetmore Construction

Carol Stream, IL Design-Build Firms

April 6, 2015

“Wetmore & Associates provided high quality work on our project, a two story addition on a very old Victorian farmhouse built in 1887 located in downtown Wheaton. Our project included a new master suite, family room, additional closets, floor refinishing and a new gas fireplace with built-ins. Brian and the Wetmore team worked with us to build our vision, support changes and allowed for flexible options when making selections during the building process. The team did a really nice job tying in the old and new spaces together with comparable molding, hardware and materials to make the new areas flow into the existing rooms of the house. Overall we are very pleased with our new spaces and would highly recommend Wetmore & Associates to others, particularly those looking for experienced builders who specialize in older or historic homes.”

Normandy Remodeling

Carol Stream, IL Design-Build Firms

June 29, 2012

“We are midway through a major renovation with Normandy Remodeling and would rate the planning process and project at the highest level, so far. Our architect, Vince Weber, has been outstanding to work with. From the start, we felt comfortable with Vince and choose to work with Normandy mainly because of him. He was patient, flexible and really listened to what we wanted to do and helped us design the home that would fit our lifestyle. Not having any renovation experience, Vince has been instrumental in helping us throughout the planning and design process. Because he understands our vision, we trust the selections he presents us with and feel confident that the overall outcome will come together beautifully. Al Lovas, our Superintendent, has been great to work with as well. He has been flexible and accommodating with changes we have made and always available when needed. Our project is on time, making great progress and looks amazing so far. We would and have highly recommended Vince and Normandy to several friends and neighbors.”

Sebring Design Build

Carol Stream, IL Design-Build Firms

October 3, 2012

“We hired Bryan to remodel our outdated kitchen. We got several estimates before deciding on Bryan's company. He gave us a written estimate, as well as a detailed step-by-step timeline of when the work would be performed and who would be doing the work. He has a competent project manager who came by at least twice a week to check on the work, and to see if we had any concerns or issues. If for some reason something was delayed Bryan himself called us to explain the delay and to give us a completion date. He helped us design our space and gave us information on where to shop for cabinets, appliances, tile, granite, etc. He worked with us each step of the way. His entire team is professional and respectful of your wants and individual circumstances. A few months after the job was completed we had a concern about something so we contacted Bryan. He came out with his project manager to talk with us, and the very next day he sent one of his best employees out to take care of our concern. He stands by his work no matter the issue or time lapsed from completion of the project. We were very happy with with the job and have been loving our new kitchen.”

A. Perry Homes

Carol Stream, IL Design-Build Firms

April 25, 2013

“The team at A. Perry Homes designed and built our home from what was a tear down cottage to what is now a luxury lake home. They listened to what was important to us and they worked with our budget. The team at A. Perry Homes had a shared passion for our project and added significant value through their creative design ideas, their relationships with contractors and suppliers and their interior design specialists. They completed our project on time and on budget and in the end they built our dream house. We highly recommend the team at A. Perry Homes”

Jeremy Lew & Assoc., Inc.

Carol Stream, IL Design-Build Firms

February 4, 2014

“We worked with Jeremy Lew and his sons to design and build our home 15 years ago. They were very responsive to our suggestions and incorporated many of our ideas into the plan. They were efficient and we completed the project on time. It was a great experience.”

BDS Design Build Remodel

Carol Stream, IL Design-Build Firms

June 25, 2013

“BDS construction did an amazing job "bringing to life" a vision we had for our dining room. Customized beams (workers cut and assembled these outside in the middle of winter!), wainscoting and paint were included in our project. The workers were neat and very "perfectionistic" in their painting technique and in the care taken to keep our home clean while working on the project. It is now my favorite room in the house. in addition, we had immediate help in partially finishing our basement ( to separate play area from utilities) after a house fire. Our home has very low ceilings (home is over 100 years) and we thought we could never finish or partially finish the space. With a small space to work with, BDS framed and put up dry wall including three different types of custom doors to provide access to the furnace, laundry facilities and work space. BDS once again worked with our ideas offering many options design and price. Overall, the work was completed in neat and timely manner, communication was excellent, and the collaboration of ideas for our final design was great!”

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

What is a design-build firm?

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, Carol Stream design-build firms 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 architect to help create the exact look you want. Here are some related professionals and vendors to complement the work of design-build firms: Interior Designers & Decorators, Landscape Architects & Landscape Designers, Architects & Building Designers, Photographers.

Before deciding on a residential design-and-build company in Carol Stream, IL, 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 Carol Stream design-builders 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.
