WHAT IS DESIGN-BUILD?

One team. From first ideas to final walkthrough.

One team. From first ideas to final walkthrough.

Design-build brings planning, design, and construction together under one team. Instead of coordinating separate designers and contractors yourself, you work with Aspire to manage your remodel from start to finish.

WHAT TO EXPECT

What you can expect from us.

An early ballpark

Before you commit

We’ll discuss your goals and budget during our initial conversation and provide a preliminary ballpark based on what we know about your project.

A plan for your space

3D renderings and selections

We’ll guide you through the planning and design process, including selections and 3D renderings, so you can see how your ideas come together before construction starts.

A clear scope and price

Before construction begins

Before construction begins, you’ll receive an agreement outlining the work and contract price. If you request a change or we uncover an unexpected condition that requires additional work, we’ll discuss any change in price and schedule with you before proceeding.

A schedule and ongoing communication

At every stage

Before construction begins, we’ll discuss the anticipated schedule. As work progresses, we’ll keep you informed about what’s happening and any changes that may affect the timeline.

A final walkthrough

At completion

When construction is substantially complete, we’ll walk through the space with you and discuss any remaining items.
