[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Design build is typically cheaper in my experience but you get what you pay for. There are no checks and balances because the arch and the contractor are on the same team.[/quote] This is why we did NOT do design-build on our addition. Architect caught several things during construction which would have been serious problems, including a contractor deviation from the blueprints which would not have met code. And always remember, code is the minimum acceptable, code is not always the best practice. [/quote]
