The Best Way to Build
At DJ Construction, we work with all construction approaches. However, we have found DesignBuild to be far superior to any other method. If you’re leaning toward the traditional plan & spec approach, we can still apply the talents of our team to ensure efficiency plus time-and cost-saving benefits to your project.
"What has been a great asset for us is the input and participation we as owners were able to experience in this process. The quality advice, honesty, and fairness on the part of DJ Construction as they work with architects, contractors, and local government organizations helps us as owners to achieve our dreams."
Bob Miller

Why DesignBuild is Superior
DesignBuild is a turnkey approach in which you hire the builder to lead the entire design and construction process. The builder often hires an architect appropriate for the project. During the design phase, the builder works hand-in-hand with you and the architect to ensure your project meets your design goals and budget.

With the traditional plan & spec process, no construction takes place until the design and bidding process is complete, so you lose precious time. DesignBuild allows construction to start while plans are being finalized. So you can get into the building faster.
DesignBuild the DJ Way
With more than 90 percent of our work being DesignBuild, our aim is to provide services that ensure your total satisfaction. Leading the entire design and construction process is key.
DJ’s DesignBuild is the simplest, most cost-efficient way to build. It assures you benefits you won’t find in the traditional bidding process.
- Cost savings. Leadership from the builder in both design and construction ensures cost savings through the prudent use of materials, cost-efficient construction and reduced labor costs.
- Shortened schedule. Because the builder is selected at the start of the design process, construction — such as site preparation and foundation work — can take place while more detailed designs are being completed.
- Hassle-free relationships. Because the owner, architect and builder work together as a team, emphasis is placed on harmony and combined solutions rather than turf protection.
