Featured Reviews for Design and Build Companies in Orinda, CA

Green California Builders Inc.
Design and Build Companies in Orinda, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars20 February 2019
“I can't say many wonderful things about Green California Builders. I wanted to built a new home and had no idea where to start in regards to design and construction permits. I heard about these guys because of my friend. I met EZ (the main project manager) after scheduling the appointment. He guided us through the entire process with ideas, advises and material selection. I liked his vision and we agree on the budget. Few days later the project started. After few months, we now have a wonderful new house. I'm so grateful to choose these guys and I recommended them 100%!!!”
Creation 7
Design and Build Companies in Orinda, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars23 January 2017
“Creation 7 build the master addition on our house. It is generally understood that having major remodeling done on your house, can be a frustrating process. It's noisy, messy, and usually, goes over budget. I can honestly say that almost none of these were true for our experience with Creation 7. The men were so respectful of our space. They cleaned up at the end of the day - no mess was ever left. The construction generally stayed within budget. These guys were a pleasure to be around also. They were funny and nice, but also respectful of our need for privacy. Also our completed addition! It's so gorgeous! Everything is in perfect working order. Their eye for detail and overall craftsmanship is amazing. I really can't say enough how great our en suite master bedroom is. It has transformed our house from an old boring space into our dream house. I highly, highly recommend Creation 7!”
California Construction Bay Area Inc.
Design and Build Companies in Orinda, CA

“We planned a big project at first, and then the budget changed, so our plans had to change. California Construction was understanding, responsive, and stayed on schedule for the revised remodel. Excellent work!”
VMA Design Build
Design and Build Companies in Orinda, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars10 August 2020
“Vimaa was great. Promptly responded to my request, listened to my fairly vague idea/request, and let me know that anything was possible! Her electrician met with me, conveniently on my next available day off, and came back a few days later and completed the job. Done perfectly and my wife and I couldn’t be happier. We will definitely reach out to her if we have any additional home projects come up.”
Frederick Custom Homes, Inc.
Design and Build Companies in Orinda, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars15 April 2014
“Frederick Construction is professional and offers high quality customer service. We are currently remodeling our whole house, and we appreciate their dedication to detail and honest feedback through the process. We are also converting an existing 4-car garage into a comfortable living space for an in-law suite. I highly recommend this company because they are experienced and knowledgable. Furthermore, they are reliable and easy to work with.”
building Lab, inc.
Design and Build Companies in Orinda, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars28 January 2013
“Buildind Lab provided both design and build services for a stand alone au-pair suite at our property. Stephen Shoup was personally involved through the effort. He and his team's commitment to quality, detail and excellence was indeed stellar. They understood us as clients and our needs and specific tastes. They truly listened and reacted with speed. They stuck to their original budget and timeline. Above everything else, their strive for perfection and desire to exceed expectations is indicative about the ethic and pride they bring to their work, day-in and day-out. In short it was an absolute pleasure to work with them and we would highly recommend them.”
Douglah Designs
Design and Build Companies in Orinda, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars13 March 2015
“Douglah Designs did a kitchen, living room, family room remodel for us. Leila was great in our design -- she listens and tailored our exact desires into a unique design. She challenged us when needed. She expanded our thinking when needed, too. Her partnership and input was exactly what we needed. Her crew was good to work with, too. They were on time, on budget and performed everything as expected. Todd and team were great to work with.”
Gayler Design Build
Design and Build Companies in Orinda, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars21 February 2014
“I was brought in as a color consultant on a master bedroom addition project for Gayler Construction. From my first interaction with their manager, Darlene Gayler, I was impressed by the professionalism of the office staff, by their attention to detail, and very clear approach and process to every project. They have high expectations of every participant on a project, have systems in place to ensure tracking and clarity from both the provider and client side. Very few contractors offer a 5 year warranty on their work: Gayler Construction delivers expertise every client can count on.”
Gordon Reese Design Build
Design and Build Companies in Orinda, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars30 May 2013
“We hired Gordon Reese construction for our Kitchen remodel after a lengthy interview process with a number of construction companies. We were impressed with Gordon and his team, their understanding of what we wanted to do as well as clearly outlining the scope of the work based on our budget. We worked with Gordon over a few weeks finalizing the scope of work and contracts and he was very responsive to my many calls, questions and clarifications. We set a start date for the project and on that date he and the project manager arrived with the crew to do a walkthrough of the project and contract to make sure we were all on the same page as we started the remodel. Over the course of the project I met often with our project manager and our lead remodeling professional to check on status, issues and solutions as we progressed with the remodel. Gordon and his team have great relationships with a number of suppliers in the local area that are Green in their building processes and my favorite was our Cabinet company (Precision Cabinet and Trim of Brentwood). Gordon was able to arrange a personal visit and tour of the cabinet companies factory and for me to meet with their local rep to review our final cabinet choices, color and options. It was a great experience and one that made the cabinet selection a breeze for this remodel. I can say that Bruce arrived to work every day on time and worked hard to meet the project deadline. He always left the workspace neat and went out of his way to be sure we had everything we needed during the project. The kitchen came out beautiful, the workmanship by our lead remodeling professional was incredible. All of our family and friends love the final result and we could not be happier. On side note, during the construction we found a “surprise” that needed to be addressed that was not related to the kitchen remodel and working with our lead remodeling professional, our project manager and Gordon we were able to address this critical fix with ease as they were able to add the scope to our project and have the lead remodeling professional address it while also working on the kitchen. That little side trip was unexpected but working with our lead remodeling professional along with a number of other folks from the Gordon Reese construction team, we were able to address the fix and not impact the overall project timeline. I highly recommend Gordon and his team for any remodel or construction project! MH Danville CA”

“I’ve been working with Canyon Design Build since 2010 to photograph the completion of their remodels, kitchens, baths and additions. When I arrive at the project site, it’s always clear that the homeowner is thrilled with the results and that they have a good relationship with the project manager. I look forward to including more Canyon Design Build projects in my portfolio.”

Design and Build Company FAQs
In short, a design and build company consists of all stages of the construction process, from design to build, in one place. A design-build firm works under one contract with the project owner to complete both design and build steps of the project.

They will take on the responsibility of planning the project, drawing up the designs, costing, sourcing the building materials and supplies, building the structure, installing any permanent features and possibly advising on the interior design of your home; all while consulting you every step of the way.
Speed and cost. Hiring a design & build company for your Orinda project means that the whole process from start to finish will be quicker, as all stages of the project will be handled by one company.
