Design Build is A Different Approach to remodeling
Our Process Is Transparent
Our Process Is TransparentThe ‘typical’ remodeler comes out, reviews your project, and gives you a ‘ballpark’ price. That’s simply not how we do business and we find that kind of process to be less than transparent. Most importantly, this can result in a poor remodeling experience.
Remodeling can be intimidating and unfortunately, our industry is riddled with horror stories. We don’t want you to be one of them! That is why we have refined our processes, throughout the years, and chosen the Design Build approach to remodeling. This is a different approach than many other remodeling companies, but we know that it offers our clients a far better experience and helps ensure each project stays on-time and on-budget. Most importantly, it allows us to work through all of the project design and specification elements before we begin. This approach leads to:
- A more educated process for the homeowner,
- Better value engineering options,
- Design renderings that allow you to visualize your project,
- Fewer surprises,
- Projects that are On-time & On-Budget
- A solid reputation with satisfied customers.

2. SAVES TIME & MONEY
When the project is being designed and taken from vision to paper, there are a variety of factors that can influence cost. The Design Build process is much more transparent and accurate than a typical bid process. You can learn why in our Guide to Remodeling.
With Design Build, your design team has the opportunity to value-engineer the project to meet your time and budget requirements during the design process, not halfway through the project. The team can recommend alternative products or services that may reduce cost and/or improve efficiency. Using the team approach also limits the need to re-design, which can be costly and time consuming. Ultimately, Parker’s team is directly responsible for managing the team approach and meeting the client’s needs and expectations. The merits of Design Build have been studied and proven in the commercial sector – why would the residential sector be any different?
3. RENDERINGS & CUSTOM CABINETRY
Parker provides you with design renderings and custom cabinetry that elevate the entire remodeling experience. This part of our process allows you to visualize your selections, include handcrafted custom cabinetry that is measured to your exact specifications, and experience a truly custom experience.
4. HIGHER QUALITY
Design Build inherently provides higher quality for several reasons. First, Parker provides a workmanship warranty. This means that there are no incentives to cutting corners or using inferior products or low-ball sub-contractors where a project is often awarded on price, not value. Since Parker has established long-term relationships with all of our trade contractors, they understand our business philosophy and rely on us for ongoing work. Therefore, they are incented to provide consistent high quality to maintain that steady stream of business.
5. SATISFACTION & COMPLETION
Every homeowner wants to keep their project on-time and on-budget. Some projects never make it past the design stage because of poor planning, erroneous information, substandard quality or inaccurate cost assessments.
When Parker’s team is responsible for everything that happens before, during and at the completion of your project, we have a higher on-time and on-budget completion rate than our competitors. Ultimately, we also achieve a higher client satisfaction rating.
By utilizing the Design Build approach, we are confident we can accomplish our mission to make the entire remodeling process exciting and rewarding by providing an experience that guides you step by step on…Your Journey To A Better Home. We are located in Towson, MD and provide remodeling services to the Greater Baltimore metro area.
A Unique Approach Provides A Better Experience for You!
The Design Build approach offers our clients the benefits of greater design and construction integration with singular responsibility for the project’s overall process and outcome and often a reduction in total project costs. By collaborating on the architectural design as part of the budgeting process, we also ensure your project will meet your budget requirements. That’s an important element to understand because very few contractors or remodeler’s utilize this process. Why? It takes more time to estimate and design – meaning you’ll have a very real understanding of the cost before the project even begins, with fewer hidden surprises! We have also found that the typical bid process is not as transparent and homeowners find there are far more surprises and projects usually end up costing substantially more than the original ‘bid’.
