Amsted’s Design-Build Benefits

Design innovation

Bringing together designers and builders at the start of a project enhances design inspiration, through creative brainstorming on aesthetics, functionality and building science.

“From initial conceptual meetings through to the final design, Amsted brought significant value-added expertise and realistic solutions to the challenges the project faced – a major benefit of the design-build process.” – Sarah & Alex

Better quality

Design-builders are experts in both fields, enabling them to see alternatives that deliver a better project than you initially imagined.

“It impressed us that the designer and construction crew took the time to discuss the situation and work together to leverage the diverse skill sets of the team to arrive at the best possible solution. The result was exceptional workmanship.” – Jennifer & Chris

Cost savings

Budgetary goals and true costs are considered in design, and monitored and assessed throughout construction.

“Our budget was as serious to Amsted as it was to us. We felt we got the best for our money in Amsted.” – Co P.

Faster delivery

Integrated project management means our construction team is brought in at an early stage in the design process, which allows your project to begin sooner, and be completed faster and with fewer challenges.

“The schedule was adhered to during the entire construction phase. For a four-month project, I think this was exceptional, and certainly impressed our neighbours.” – Katie & Andrew

Singular responsibility

Just one company is held accountable for cost, schedule and performance; everyone from the lead architect to the labourer is clearly focused on one goal – your goal. There is only one point of contact for you, and no confusion over responsibility.

“The entire renovation experience, from beginning to end, was a positive and happy one for us. Amsted is a first-class organization that, in our view, operates in accordance with its core values of integrity, teamwork, respect, trust, empathy and loyalty.” – Lindsay & Ivan

Testimonial

We were unable to move out over the 7 month duration of the job so were present throughout, interacting with the Amsted team on a daily basis and we can’t say enough about how wonderful an experience that was for us. Every single person who worked on our job, from the project manager to those who just came to perfrom small specific tasks, was friendly, patient, courteous and hard working. […]
