We have found that many people in the southwest
part of Los Angeles are unfamiliar with Design Build firms. In your area,
is Design Build a popular approach to remodeling and new construction?

Yes – Design Build is very popular in my area!

No – In my area no one seems to be utilizing Design Build firms

N/A – Whats a Design Build firm??

@tooky58, Design-Build – for me, marries the worlds of design and
construction. This requires a mutually respected team of a designer (sometimes an architect, depending upon the complexity of the project); a
builder; and a home owner. The team is fairly paid for their expertise and
work and the client’s budget, wants, and needs are respected. Since it is one team, the lines of communication are very clear.

Good point @dytecture! We always start our remodel projects with a set of "as-built" plans produced by a structural engineer in close proximity to the project address. This is important because the engineer will be looking at the existing "structural" issues that may limit or at least direct the team toward the most cost effective solutions. Also, once the design is finalized we use the same engineer to produce the "structural" drawings necessary for building permits and construction.

tooky58 MARK IV Builders, Inc did a good job of explaining it but please do
let us know if you have any additional questions on it. As a design /
build firm ourselves we believe that design / build offers time and potential
financial savings among other benefits.
