What Is Design and Build?

Design and build is a streamlined construction service that combines architectural design and construction under one roof. Instead of working with separate designers, engineers, and contractors, a single team takes responsibility for the entire project. This integrated approach eliminates miscommunication, reduces delays, and provides a structured, efficient process from start to finish.

Whether you’re planning a custom-built home, a retail space, a modern office, or a hospitality venue, a design and build service simplifies the process while maintaining quality and cost control.

Customer Reviews

I recently had my garage converted into a bedroom with en-suite by TNBC, and I couldn't be happier with the results. From the initial consultation to the final touches, their professionalism and dedication were outstanding. They even tweaked the design to allow more light into the room and transformed my garage into a stunning, functional space with exceptional craftsmanship and attention to detail. Communication was excellent throughout, and they were always responsive and transparent. TNBC’s commitment to quality and customer satisfaction truly sets them apart. If you're looking for a reliable and skilled contractor, I highly recommend TNBC. They exceeded all my expectations!

DESIGN AND BUILD: THE FULL PROCESS

A design and build project follows a structured process, ensuring that every detail is accounted for and aligned with your vision. Here’s how it works:

  • 1. Initial Consultation Every project begins with a detailed discussion about your needs, preferences, and budget. This stage ensures that your vision is clearly understood and helps in setting realistic goals.
  • 2. Architectural Planning Stage Once your requirements are outlined, architects and designers draft initial concepts. These plans consider factors like layout, space utilisation, and energy efficiency.
  • 3. Making Changes Before finalising plans, you’ll have the opportunity to make adjustments. Whether it’s optimising natural light, adjusting room sizes, or selecting materials, this step ensures the design is just right.
  • 4. Planning Permission Our team handles planning applications, ensuring that all designs comply with local regulations. With our experience in local planning policies, we increase the likelihood of a swift approval.
  • 5. Structural Calculations and Building Regulations To guarantee a safe and compliant build, engineers conduct structural calculations, and we ensure that all aspects meet UK building regulations.
  • 6. Building Work Starts Once approvals are in place, construction begins. With our skilled team managing the build, we maintain strict quality control while keeping the project on schedule.

This seamless approach reduces stress and ensures that the entire project flows smoothly, eliminating common issues that arise when working with separate architects and builders.
