“Straightline Contracting offered us professional advise, while giving us the sense that our comfort, design needs and a budget are their primarily focus. They have been easy to communicate with and went far and beyond basic expectations.”
Anthony O. James, Architect
Home Builders & Construction Companies in Arcade.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars29 June 2012
“What most impressed us about Tony was his willingness to listen to the desires we had, to interpret them into a real and practical plan, to make accommodations based on our financial resources, and to finish with a design that was more beautiful than we imagined. We absolutely love what Tony did with our house. We took off an ugly front porch, put both front and back dormers off the second floor , making one bedroom now two, installed a master bath, and added a master bedroom balcony overlooking the woods. Neighbors and passers by cannot believe the change. It looks like it was always meant to be! Tony met with our builder and carefully went over the plans. He was always available when we had questions. Excellent service!”
Martin Construction
Home Builders & Construction Companies in Arcade.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars23 January 2015
“I am extremely please with the outcome of a house remodeling done by Frank Martin and associates. He took a duplex and made it into a modern single family home. The entire crew was professional and communicated almost daily with me on what was to be done. Frank was on top of things that I found to be adjusted. The job was completed on time. We could not be happier.”

“Philip Vogt has quality construction down to a science. His timing in starting and completing a job is accurate. His crew is respectful of your living in your home while it is being redone. They clean up every day and go above and beyond to make your experience flawless. He has vision of what your design should be and always listens to what your wish list entails. His pricing does not change as the job progresses. Only when you make a significant change and he will be sure to go over that with you. Everyone I recommend him to thanks me. He is the best in my area.”

When building a new house, people often turn to architects to kick off the project. However, a different model is becoming quite popular: design-build. Instead of dividing tasks between separate architecture and construction companies, you can hire a full-service firm to design and build your entire Arcade, NY project, from initial sketches through final construction. Learn more about how to choose the right design-build construction for your home project below:

What is a design-build firm?


Design-build companies take on the responsibilities of architects, contractors and construction companies, all under one roof. These full-service firms focus on a streamlined process — from the initial design to the estimating phase to physical construction — in the hope of creating an efficient experience for both the client and the company. Because the entire project is happening within one company, design-build firms are able to overlap the design and construction phases of the project, which oftens speeds up the project significantly. In addition, these firms work to minimize risks for the project owner through single-point responsibility contracts. However, depending on the firm, you may still want to contact an interior designer or architect to help create the exact look you want. Here are some related professionals and vendors to complement the work of design-build firms: Interior Designers & Decorators, Landscape Architects & Landscape Designers, Architects & Building Designers, Photographers.

Before deciding on a design-and-build firm, think about what you want from your new home. Do you want a large kitchen for entertaining? Do you need several bedrooms for children and guests? Do you want a finished basement for extra space or storage? Look for aNew York design-builder who specializes in the areas you're looking for. Budget is obviously a determining factor in the outcome of your project. To make sure you stay within your means, consider making a must-have list and a wish list. Gauge where the estimates are falling to determine which design-and-build contract can realistically strike the balance between the two.

Questions to ask a prospective design-builder:


  • How long have you been in the business?
  • How many projects like mine have you completed?
  • Who will be working on the project?
  • Are the workers employees or subcontractors?
  • Can you provide me with references?
  • Who is your designer, and what are his or her qualifications?
  • Are your employees licensed and insured?
  • How do you charge, and what does that include?
  • Can you give me a written estimate?
  • What do your services include?
  • When can this job get done?
  • What happens when cost exceeds the budget? What about changes to materials or labor pricing?
  • What will I need to provide?
  • Are there any important considerations or concerns you foresee with this project?
