"I highly recommend Julian to anyone seeking a professional, competent and caring interior designer. Julian is a talented professional who coordinated every aspect of the redesign and was a joy with which to work. Julian was there each step of the way to supervise all of the subcontractors involved in the job. She was conscientious about making sure the redesign met my desires and that I was pleased after the selections had been made and installed. Julian has great sources I never could have found on my own. In addition, she never deviated from our discussed budget or made me feel pressured in any way. My husband and I love all the changes Julian has made to our home and plan to use her again in the future. "

Dwayne and his crew did a great job on the porch. We was very impressed with the detail of the work. The porch looks amazing. They stayed on schedule and within our budget. I give DLB construction 5 stars. Without a doubt top notch Thank you.
"Junior was prompt, courteous and did a great job painting my home office. Junior worked the weekend to accommodate my schedule so that he could get the job done on days that I didn't need to use the room."
While you will always work with a team of professionals at some point during your home build, homeowners with experience can take on some part of the process. Manage the initial brainstorm, brief writeup, and floor layout phase with minimal assistance before contacting a general contractor. And while you can purchase stock blueprints for some home designs, it's always best to speak with professionals when choosing one ideal for your property.
Building permits serve a few purposes, the most important of which is to keep you and the people around you safe by ensuring your contractor does work safely and to code. Permits also help your municipality tax your property appropriately, as taxes are based on land improvements and the upgrades you make to your home. Finally, permits ensure your project won’t have a negative impact on the environment or your neighbors.
Stone, marble, and brick are common building materials of Neoclassical architecture, though you will also find wood flooring and a range of natural stone tiles. Since several home styles fall under Neoclassical architects' umbrella, a range of building materials—including traditional wood framing—will make an appearance.
Buying a house is easier than building one from scratch. Buying an existing home is almost always faster, even if you need to make renovations once you move in. When you hire the right team to build a home, they will simplify the design and build phases so that there is little guesswork throughout the process, but building new construction will almost always take longer than buying an existing home.
Designing a building takes 2-6 months, depending on project size, required permits, and revisions.
