The Design Build process helps you visually see your project before Almar starts to build it. Our process combines the design with our remodeling knowledge right from the beginning, allowing you and Almar to have input into the project even before work gets started! As the customer, you are the most important member of our design-build team. Your wishes and ideas drive the design, materials, selection and budget.

Almar’s Design Build process also allows Almar to offer you better service in conjunction with our designer, project manager and carpenters. You conceive your project and the Almar team works with you throughout the entire process, from Concept to Completion.

We discuss all of your goals for your home – from the current project to long term improvements. Then we create a plan that ensures the current project coordinates and compliments your future plans.

By designing with you, we assure that the project you plan is right for you. Your ideas and suggestions are part of the design as we work, and you can see changes almost immediately. 
You can see your design project on the screen and can virtually walk thru it and make adjustments as we go.

The Top Ten Advantages to Choosing Design/Build?

1. Design Build is geared to fit your budget.

2. The designer works for your contractor who works for you.

3. You do not have to pay for the first set of revisions.

4. You do not have to pay for a full set of working drawings.

5. The design process can take 6-8 weeks, as opposed to 6-8 months with an architect.

6. Almar is part of the design process from day one. So we know your plans just as well if not better than you do.

7. You can adjust your concept after you see your first set of plans.

8. You contractor can give you a price range for your project so that you are not wasting money drawing plans for a project you may not be able to afford to build.

9. The design fee is usually 3% - 5% of the estimated cost of your project. Architects 
   fee is generally 8%-15%.

10. The design saved on the designer’s laptop. The designer will set up a screen and 
    project the design on that so we can all walk through it and discuss it, and get a better idea what it will look like.
