3 Advantages of Design-Build vs. Traditional Construction

When it comes to construction – whether it’s an apartment renovation or building a new home from scratch – there are two methods that are popular in the United States: traditional building and the design-build method. But not a lot of people outside of the home improvement industry really know the difference between the two. While traditional construction has its own merits, in today’s post, your friends over at Knockout Renovation explain why going the design-build route should be the way to go.

Advantage #1: Better Teamwork

If you opt to go the traditional route, you would have to hire an architect, a designer and a contractor separately. And that is just for starters. As the name suggests, design-build companies handle both the design and building process. This makes for a more seamless job where the homeowner is also encouraged to have active participation in all aspects of the construction project.

Advantage #2: Lower Costs

In studies that compare the merits of design-build versus traditional construction, the results all show that the design-build method is significantly cheaper. Due to the quicker turn-around time and the absence of separate professional fees, these studies conclude that you can reduce your renovation costs by as much as 6%.

Advantage #3: Time Savings

As the old saying goes, time is money. As mentioned above, the design-build method has a faster turn-around time compared to traditional construction. With the designer and the builder working together on the same team, decisions are made much quicker and any problems that may arise are solved almost immediately.
