The Design/Build Advantage

The design/build method is a recognized industry standard that takes a holistic approach to remodeling and building. The same firm that designs your remodel or addition builds it, and makes you part of the team.

"You were always easy to work with, eager to answer questions, professional, and true to your word."
T. Sullivan

For most remodels and additions, the design/build process yields better results and lower costs than working with a separate architect and a contractor. You profit from the synergy of working directly with the same firm that's designing and building your project. This can save you a great deal of time and expense in plan preparation. It also can prevent unpleasant surprises such as learning, after the design process, that the cost to renovate is more than you expected, or that the design itself lacks hands-on building experience.

By choosing Master Plan, you benefit directly from the following design/build advantages:

A single source of accountability for both design and construction. The right hand knows what the left hand is doing.
A master builder's expertise in designing, building and remodeling. Our hands-on experience enables us to easily solve everything from complex structural problems to flow problems in a kitchen.
Shortened timeline and greater continuity between the vision of the design and the realities of construction.
Seamless transition from design to build phase (there's no handoff involved).
Deeper appreciation of cost in relation to design and material selections.
Greater attention to detail in the design phase, minimizing the possibility of changes and cost increases.
