Featured Reviews for Nashville, TN Design-Build Firms

Castle Homes

Nashville, TN Design-Build Firms

September 22, 2012

“My husband and I hired Castle to transform a 1958 Ranch that we recently bought into anything but a ranch. From the architect, to budgeting, to the complete vision from a design stand point, Castle does it all and does it well. They are a quality builder and even on a tight budget you get more than you would with most. Why? Because the Castle standard is set very high. As they say, everyone deserves their castle.”

Hallmark Building Group, Inc.

Nashville, TN Design-Build Firms

July 2, 2015

“Dan Morehouse is the most professional builder I have worked with at the residential scale. His estimating tools and communication skills far surpass those of any other residential builder I have seen. Both the homeowner and I felt informed from the beginning, and we were updated multiple times each week with photos and descriptions regarding the job's progress. I always felt engaged with the the project so I could weigh in on important issues as they happened. I recommend Dan to anyone looking to build a house or take on a large addition/renovation.”

CDP Architecture, LLC

Nashville, TN Design-Build Firms

June 3, 2015

“I've worked with CDP on several projects and without any reservations would recommend them. They are remarkable at translating a client's vision into a finished product that stays within the frame of constructability and the client's project resources.”

Wills Company

Nashville, TN Design-Build Firms

April 6, 2014

“If I could give the Wills Company 10 stars, I would. There is no weak link in the chain at the Wills Company. Everyone from the principals to the project manager to the handyman service coordinator to the accounting office does their job with professionalism, extreme attention to detail and reliability. My husband and I spent nearly two years planning for and executing on the renovation of an old house. We wanted to bring the house into this century without losing any of its charm. Ridley Wills created a vision for the remodeled house that preserved the history of the house but made it work for a young family. Now that we are finished with the renovation, the Wills Company helps us maintain our house through their impeccable handyman service. I find that someone from the Wills Company is at my house at least once a week, making sure the air ducts are cleaned properly, that any peeling paint is touched up, that leaks are repaired quickly. I even call on them to hang heavy mirrors or arrange for the windows to be washed. It's like having a full time super at my house!”

Trace Ventures

Nashville, TN Design-Build Firms

July 20, 2014

“We were very impressed with Trace Venture's work when we went to see a friend's kitchen they have renovated. It was beautiful and impressive. So, we decided to work with them in renovating our kitchen and den. It was the best decision we made. We were assigned a person, Mr. Mike Fly, who stayed at the site everyday and actually we began to see him as family. It was the middle of winter with three dogs in the house. Mike made sure that we had privacy and limited interference with our daily routine. The end result was more than we expected. We love our custom made cabinets, hutch and pantry. Our den is very comfortable and bright. We receive compliments from our friends concerning not only the built-ins but also the quality of work. Thank you Trace Ventures.”

Carbine and Associates, LLC

Nashville, TN Design-Build Firms

August 14, 2016

“We are a 7th generation Franklin/Williamson County family. We knew the Carbines from coaching their beautiful daughters in soccer. We recently, at 54, decided we wanted to downsize. We only had to look at our gorgeous home once and knew immediately that we wanted to work with this incredible company. We met with the Owner, President and Broker once and were on our way to owning our home. Everyone associated with Carbine treated us with respect and kindness whether we were calling, meeting in person, texting or emailing from start to finish. They even offered to help us sale our old home. All of their subs were complete and total professionals. They were clean, courteous and prompt in handling their duties. We were so happy with our unit we decided to stay with all their people. Now, almost two years later, we love our home and are as excited as we were our first day here. We moved from the historic Hincheyville district of downtown Franklin, TN. We had lived in that home for 34 years and hopefully we'll be in our new home for just as long. We are Happy "Carbine" Campers. Brad and Cammie Whit.”

Nashville, TN Design-Build Firms

February 22, 2018

“Eddie and the team at Old Hillsboro Building Company are exceptional in that their level of professionalism, project management and execution rises above their competitors, producing on-time/on budget projects at very high quality levels. From a subcontractor's perspective, this allows for efficient and far more effective production, thereby serving our mutual client, the home owner. It is team approach, from start to finish, coordinated and integrated, each project resulting in a joyful experience.”

Platinum Building Solutions, LLC

Nashville, TN Design-Build Firms

April 17, 2017

“Russell and his crew did a great job repairing our house after a neighbor's tree fell on it. The job was done well and without wasted time. His crew was skilled and active. His cost was the best we got from 3 other estimates. We recommend him with pleasure.”

ACM LLC

Nashville, TN Design-Build Firms

January 20, 2017

“Steve was hired to provide construction management and oversite for a $3.6 million, 25,000 sq ft manufacturing facility in Minnesota that was contracted with a large established EPC contractor. Steve found numerous budget savings, provided technical advice and was very helpful in solving several issues that came up in the process and was instrumental in bringing the project in under budget. I would highly recommend Steve, he is extremely detailed in his approach and analysis and proficient at identifying and more importantly providing solutions issues before they become serious problems.”

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 Nashville 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 Nashville, TN 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, Nashville 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 Nashville, TN, 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 Nashville 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 Nashville design-builder:
