WHAT IS
DESIGN-BUILD?
Design-build is a modern approach to remodeling and construction that brings design and construction under one roof. Instead of managing separate contracts and teams for each phase, you work with one integrated team from start to finish. At Fine Home Contracting, this means a seamless experience with one shared vision, and a unified path to bringing your dream space to life.

BENEFITS OF DESIGN-BUILD
ONE TEAM,
ONE VISION
With a unified design and construction team, your project flows more smoothly. The same professionals who help shape your vision will be responsible for building it, which reduces miscommunication and conflicting priorities.
FASTER
TIMELINES
Our design-build process allows us to overlap design and construction phases when appropriate. This means fewer delays, quicker problem-solving, and a more efficient path to the finished product.
TRANSPARENT BUDGETING
You’ll receive detailed estimates early in the process, along with a clear breakdown of costs. Our design phase includes selection allowances and site inspections to ensure the project scope and budget are aligned before construction begins.
COLLABORATIVE PROCESS
You’ll work closely with our design team through every step. Our dashboard gives you a centralized place to view progress, make selections, approve designs, and communicate with our team.
