What does “design build” mean, and why does True North Custom Homes offer this its customers? The traditional method of renovating a house or doing new home construction involves having the design and construction tasks handled by two (or more) different companies. That means the customer has to be the go-between and coordinate the details of what will be a very complicated project. With the design build model, one company handles everything. This approach is becoming more and more popular, for some very good reasons:

• It can save you money. With the multi-company version, the architect you hire may produce plans that will cost more than you expect once it is put into the hands of a contractor. For instance, he or she may not be knowledgeable about material costs or may include complicated and expensive features. When the contractor uses those plans to build your home, it could result in budget overruns.
• It can prevent mistakes and miscommunication that will affect quality. There is no need to collaborate and have back-and-forth messages and conversations between different entities.
• It is ideal for highly customized projects. The more intricate details there are, the greater the possibility of errors when there are multiple parties having input.
• It could allow for your project to be finished faster. Because True North Custom Homes is managing every phase of the project, we can order materials and schedule our crews in a way that optimizes the timeline.
