Design-Build Construction: Why You Should Hire Schroeder

design-build

In the field of commercial construction, when you want something done right, you either do it yourself or hire a company with the expertise and experience to get the job completed with accuracy. For instance, it makes sense to work with a company that specializes in the design-build method of construction. If you’re not familiar with this concept, it merely means that one entity, such as Schroeder Construction, handles all phases of the construction process.

 

From the inception of your project, through the design stage, and onto the construction and completion, Schroeder Management will make the process seamless. By working within the design-build construction methodology, you’ll have the most efficient way to manage and complete a project.

A few benefits of design-build are:

  • Elimination of miscommunications between sub-contractors and middlemen

  • Projects remain on, or under allotted budgets

  • Reduction of overlapping cost when working with multiple designers or contractors

  • Save time and money for the owner

  • Owners are enabled with the ability to build a robust one-on-one relationship throughout the entire construction process with one primary contact.

Being part of the design phase of construction allows our team to Schroeder Construction Management to get a clear and concise overview of how a construction project is going to go before the first tool is picked up. Using state of the art commercial construction design software, we can plan out how every square inch of a construction project should go in order to surpass customer expectations and to remain on budget.

Sully’s Superette Renovations

An excellent example of how we utilized the design-build method of construction is when we significantly renovated Sully’s Superette in Goffstown, NH. Working on both the exterior and interior of the structure, our team was able to seamlessly and efficiently remove and relocate the store’s front entrance. However we didn’t stop there. Further construction included building the store a new entrance vestibule, as well as touch up interior renovations. From there our team finished the exterior of the building with faux stone and vinyl siding.

The result was a spectacular success with the store owners. The construction process went flawlessly, and we were able to remain on budget and finish the project within the allotted time frame. These renovations are a testament to the effectiveness of the design-build method of construction as well as the importance of using the most up to date design software available in the construction field today.

For a moment, let’s say you are a real estate developer undergoing a major project. As one can image, this is an extremely stressful position to be in as there are many hats to be worn. From coordinating workers and equipment to maintaining schedules and budgets, the details are endless. This, in a nutshell, is why you would hire a general contractor.

A brief overview

A day in the life of a general contractor is never the same. This individual is responsible for the overall coordination of a project as well as act as the construction manager. From assessing documents, visiting sites, submitted proposals or bids, hiring tradesman or subcontractors, and working with engineers, a general contractor is a well-rounded, and knowledgeable individual with resources.

 

The management hat

As the on-site construction manager, the general contractor on a project ensures that tasks stay as planning. For example, the electrician can not come on-site to perform their duties until other elements of the construction phase have been completed. Keeping the project moving on time is a crucial part of managing a job, as well as keeping to the proposed budget.

 

Hiring subcontractors

Rome wasn’t built in a day. We’ve all heard the famous saying, and it holds true for many aspects of everyday life. In construction, this saying is especially true. To successfully execute a project teamwork is needed from a variety of different trades.

Enter the general contractor. This individual is typically one with a considerable amount of industry experience and resources. Thus, he or she can hire in the subcontractors needed to execute the job with precision. Tradesmen such as electricians, masons, carpenters, ironworkers, and so on will all be required at some point throughout the plan. Carefully coordinating schedules, each stage should flow seamlessly without interruption.
