Our Design Build Process

Integrated Design Build

As a design build firm we follow an integrated approach to residential design.  That brings all the key players together for a design and planning process that is thoughtful, thorough and deliberate.  We develop plans for additions or interior alterations that transform your home into a beautiful, comfortable living space that your family will enjoy every day.

Creative collaboration

A Gilday architect, interior designer…

…and project director serve as your expert guides.  Our people are talking to each other and to you at day one of the creative process.  This ensures your project turns out as planned–actually better than planned.

Honoring the client’s (your) wishes

Because we are a top design build firm, we consider it an obligation to provide relevant advice and ideas above and beyond what you specifically request. We want you to carefully weigh all your options (and corresponding benefits or drawbacks) before finalizing your plan.

Fiscal responsibility

The first round of drawings is accompanied by an accurate estimate.  The estimate is updated to reflect changes made during the design & planning phase. There is no lag time between creative activity and cost accounting.

Happy memories

During construction, our staff will demonstrate the utmost respect for your personal comfort and the protection of your property.  Though you’ll be glad when the project is complete, you’ll be sad to see us go.
