Featured Reviews for Design-Build Contractors & Firms in Harbor City

OC Builders Group
Design-Build Contractors & Firms in Harbor City
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJuly 5, 2019
“We hired OC Builders for a full Kitchen remodel and an installation of a 20’ sliding door. When we met our contractor, Moe, he went over everything in detail and answered all of our questions. Moe was happy to give advice on materials and design but was also fine working with our design. It was a nice balance. We’ve had mixed experiences with contractors on smaller projects in the past but we’re so glad we hired OC for this project. Everything went as expected and there were no surprises. The original quote was pretty close to what the final charges were and the timeline went very smoothly. Moe was extremely communicative and addressed any issue we had in a timely manner. The site was always left very clean every day and the workmen were very professional. We are finished now and loving everything about our beautiful open kitchen and large new doors that open to our back yard. We will not hesitate to hire OC Builders again for future projects.”

Alloi Architecture + Construction
Design-Build Contractors & Firms in Harbor City
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsApril 8, 2013
“I have had the pleasure of working with Marcos and his team on a project for one of my retail stores. He is the most caring, attentive and most importantly the best Architect I have ever worked with. I will work with him again with any project that requires an Architect. This is my experience short and sweet. Of course much more involved. You can call me if you would like to get a more detailed account. Just get my number from Marcos or his team, I will be happy to talk to you in more detail. Jay.”
So Cal Builders & Design
Design-Build Contractors & Firms in Harbor City
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsAugust 28, 2015
“So Cal Builders and Design did a massive remodeling job on my condominium earlier this year in March. The condo was bought by me last year for a really great value, relative to living in L.A. heh, but the problem was it was fairly "worn" from use from the previous tenants who I gathered weren't particularly good neighbors. Regardless, with the great value that So Cal Builders gave me when I called them over to go over the estimate, made it all worth while. I had a limited budget, but they worked with what I had. Regardless of the limitations, they did a fantastic job with the kitchen by adding new cabinets, re-flooring and re-painting the kitchen walls. The living room and the hallway got a brand new coat of paint, and they removed the ugly and stained carpet to replace with laminate flooring. My girlfriend and I wanted them to make sure they paid extra attention to the bathroom and bedroom. So that was where the majority of the work went. Not to mention that the bathroom was a god awful mess that needed a new plumbing job! We replaced the bath tub that was taking so much space with a standing shower, which gave us tons more room, new vanity and lighting. Over all the job was fantastically done!”
OCTOBER 5 Fine Home Builders
Design-Build Contractors & Firms in Harbor City
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJuly 10, 2015
“Our extraordinary custom home, designed and reconstructed by October 5 Fine Home Builders is undeniably a work of art. October 5 offers superior design and execution, where form and function converge. Ryan, the project superintendent, attends to every detail with an eye for quality and perfection. Their open-floor plan design blurs the lines between indoor and outdoor spaces, light abounds in every room, yet the space remains purposely private and intimate. Originally constructed in 1953, our home had not undergone any remodeling or updating. During construction, the house was all but demolished - leaving only the rough framing and portions of the exterior stucco and siding. Earthquake updates, 200 amp electrical service, beefed-up insulation, plumbing, heating and air-conditioning, smooth drywall, wide-plank flooring, bathrooms, kitchen, and dual-glazed windows supported the bulk of the project, which lasted 4 ½ months. With clean contemporary lines, the modern floor plan, great for entertaining, offers a celebrated life-style. What a beautiful and relaxing way to enjoy life! We say, “Call October 5 to celebrate your next project.””
Ampersand Development
Design-Build Contractors & Firms in Harbor City
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsAugust 15, 2019
“I have used Jeanevra Calhoun and Ampersand Development on two occasions. First to sell one of my homes in 2015 and second to assist in updating, remodeling and leasing another in 2017-2018. She was attentive to both projects, very professional and personable. Jeanevra also has a terrific eye for design and made several suggestions that greatly improved the curb appeal for both homes. As I live out of state her hands-on approach, dependability and great communication skills were a tremendous help in the completion of the second project. I highly recommend Ampersand and will definitely use her again for any aspect of construction, design or buying/selling of real estate.”

Stout Design Build Inc.
Design-Build Contractors & Firms in Harbor City
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsNovember 11, 2015
“Tom and his team at Stout Design-Build are experts in creating classic and functional home designs. We are always impressed by the finished job of their outdoor rooms and patio projects. Stout seamlessly incorporates comfort features - like our ceiling mounted heaters - that are styled to fit their clients needs. We look forward to seeing what new spaces they create!”
Eco Landscape Design & Build
Design-Build Contractors & Firms in Harbor City
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 17, 2015
“Ours was a major redesign, replacing wall-to-wall grass with an environmentally-friendly Spanish garden look in both front and back yards. Brad and Jenn came highly recommended by a friend and were amazing to work with, full of great ideas, flexible, and had a top-notch crew. We wanted to add to the look of the house while minimizing water waste. The duo suggested an array of great-looking draught-tolerant plants, and Brad set up highly customized irrigation system that allows for independent watering of thirsty and water-sipping plants. Between the intricate CAD drawings and reference photos they provided we felt like we knew what we were in for, but it turned out even better. The ultimate compliment comes in the form of neighbors snapping cell phone shots and telling us how much they’re enjoying our new front yard. Thumbs-up for Eco!”

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 Harbor City 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 Harbor City, CA 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, Harbor City 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 to help create the exact look you want.

Before deciding on a residential design-and-build company in Harbor City, 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 Harbor City 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 Harbor City 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?
