The design/build process gives you complete
control over the costs of your renovation from the earliest
stages. The design, estimating, and construction phases
of your renovation are combined in one continuous process, since
your designer at Bryant Renovations, Trevor Keir, also supervises
your construction. That coordination gives you confidence
and fosters a co-operative relationship between us, since you
have one person to talk with throughout your renovation, who
has thorough design and construction knowledge and twenty years
of experience. The process begins
with a discussion of the construction budget and other costs,
such as drawing and permit fees, contingencies, landscaping,
appliances, and furniture. A preliminary design stage
provides up to three different schemes based on your wishes,
needs, and realities. Design development takes one of these
schemes (or some combination) and refines it in detail through
plans and three-dimensional sketches to a finished idea that
reflects your desires. After it is further developed
into technical drawings, it is guided through to city approval
and then directly into construction.
While we would like everyone we design
with to follow through into the building phase, some prefer
to “shop around” before committing to a builder.
We are confident that in the end you will decide that we know
your project intimately and are the best company to build
it.
