Featured Reviews for Laguna Beach, CA Design-Build Firms

APlus Interior Design & Remodeling
Laguna Beach, CA Design-Build Firms
Nov 30, 2012
“APlus remodeled my Kitchen and dining room. Alex gave me new ideas on a design much better than my existing design. When they were done, I couldn't believe my eyes, I had a new home, walls gone, ceilings raised and a huge area created for in kitchen dining. The beautiful caninets were just added benefits. I am super happy with my new home. So much better than I ever imagined.”
GP Interior Design
Laguna Beach, CA Design-Build Firms
Sep 2, 2015
“I hired GP Interior design earlier this year to help complete a front room my husband and I couldn't agree on. We both had pieces of furniture and accessories we loved but had trouble merging our "styles" plus the room had a couple of odd niches built in that I could never figure out how to make look good. Stephen, was great at putting our minds at ease with the design process and immediately began working. He utilized many pieces we already had and did a great job with odd niches. He definitely has an eye for those hard to fit elements and furniture placement. He came in just under budget, ON TIME, and didn't try push or sell us on any unnecessary extras. We are definitely planning to use him again once the Mr. and I can agree on what room to do next.”
D'Ambra Construction
Laguna Beach, CA Design-Build Firms
May 7, 2013
“D'Ambra Construction put a 2 story addition (2 Bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, kitchenet area, lawndry room. I have nothing but RESPECT for this company and highly recommend them. The people that they hire also took excellent care to provide fantastic service and everyone had wonderful attitudes and went beyond in certain cases and they were neat and clean. They made sure that my dogs where always in our yard safe. The work they provided was excellent. Chris D'Ambra was our project manager and I could not have had anyone any better. His response to all my questions and his knowledge was excellent. His response time to everything we needed was immediate. Also, they stayed within the budget. I truly believe you could not find a better company!”
Sanctuary Design, Inc.
Laguna Beach, CA Design-Build Firms
Feb 25, 2014
“I am fortunate to have represented the seller on a project performed by Sanctuary Design, Inc. The property was impeccably finished, beautifully staged (also by Sanctuary Design) and had 3 offers within 5 days, and sold on the 5th day. The property included custom soft-close cabinets and limestone counters in the kitchen birch hardwood floors throughout the main level, custom crow and base mouldings, limestone tile entry, custom built bathroom cabinets, intricate river rock/travertine designed shower,tub enclosure, and bathroom floor. Extensive outdoor decking, paint, and a showpiece, one-of-a-kind wine barrel table with limestone top completed the back deck design. I attribute the fast and popular sale to the beautiful work done by Sanctuary Design.”
Smart Building Group, Inc.
Laguna Beach, CA Design-Build Firms
Apr 14, 2015
“I like this group. Quality work. Fair pricing. They kept their word. This was a very old building and they had a firm understanding about what it takes to get things done according to the codes and laws. This was very important to us. We're very happy and will gladly recommend them.”
Rellion Homes
Laguna Beach, CA Design-Build Firms
Aug 11, 2015
“I have had only the best experience working with Rellion, Inc. It's been six months since I've moved into my dream home and I still can't believe how lucky I am to have worked with Lin and his builders. They are professional, punctual, and always available to help. If there was any question or concern that needed to be addressed, it was done ASAP. I have worked with other contractors, and Rellion sets the standard! I have referred my friends and family to him and they are very excited to be working with Rellion, Inc!”
Julie Laughton Design Build
Laguna Beach, CA Design-Build Firms
Jan 13, 2015
“My remodel spanned nine months from Sept. 2013-May 2014. Julie Laughton: Professional service, quality workmen, always courteous and on time. From design concept to the real deal, fantastic!! This was a stressful time as I lived on site, along side the Laughton team. Cannot say enough about the kind and understanding attitude of Laughton team members! Polite and caring; my ordeal was in the end worth every dollar and every moment of worry! Seriously! Would I use this company again? Yes! But I would visit the job site not live in its' midst! Jennifer Yelland Laguna Beach, California”
Opulent Design Build
Laguna Beach, CA Design-Build Firms
Aug 16, 2017
“These guys are one of the best building and design firms in the industry. They operate under complete transparency and assist in the design process to meet budget. Most experience I've had with designers and architect firms is that they either design your project way out of budget, making it impossible for the builder, or their designs look terrible and they blame it on budget. Not the case with Eddie and his team. Top quality designs that can meet any budget and complete communication that meet expectations every time. I love these guys and have referred everyone I know to them!!”
Design Intervention
Laguna Beach, CA Design-Build Firms
Nov 12, 2014
“I have known Kirk Nelson of Design Intervention since 2002 and have followed his work throughout the years. As a stager in Southern California, I staged one of the properties that had been completely remodeled. This home was put on the market for sale and no doubt sold because of the attention to detail used by Kirk Nelson..”
Burgin Design • Remodel
Laguna Beach, CA Design-Build Firms
Aug 10, 2012
“I have worked with Burgin Construction and still do today, and I have to say they are the most Professional team in the construction field, that I have ever dealt with. I couldn't choose a better team from the office to out in the field.The employees are professional and the owners, Rhonda and Brad, are professional, knowledgeable, courteous, and simply a joy to work with. In my position, I come across reviews/testimonials for Burgin Construction on a weekly basis and they always come with "shining" recommendations!”

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, Laguna Beach 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 Laguna Beach, CA, 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 Laguna Beach 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. Gauge where the estimates are falling to determine which design-build contract can realistically strike the balance between the two.

Questions to ask a prospective Laguna Beach design-builder:


  • How long have you been in the 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?
