For many homeowners, building a custom home feels overwhelming. Architects, engineers, contractors, permits, inspections — it can seem like too many moving parts. That’s why more Sarasota and Bradenton families are turning to the design-build model.
At Adkins Building & Construction, we specialize in design-build, a process that unifies design, engineering, and construction under one roof. Here’s how it works — and why it’s the future of home building.
Step 1: Consultation & Vision
Every project starts with listening. Adkins meets with clients to understand their goals, budget, and lifestyle. For some, the vision is a coastal retreat; for others, a family-focused home with functional spaces.
Step 2: Design Phase
Our architects create floor plans and 3D renderings, while interior designers help homeowners choose finishes and layouts. Because the designers and builders are part of the same team, the plans are realistic from the very beginning.
Step 3: Engineering & Permits
Adkins’ structural engineers review every design for safety and efficiency. We also handle the complex permitting process, ensuring compliance with Florida’s coastal and city codes.
Step 4: Construction
Once plans are approved, our construction team takes over. Project managers keep the build on track, while clients stay informed through our BuilderTrend software, which provides updates, schedules, and photos.
Step 5: Final Walkthrough
Before keys are handed over, we walk through the home together to ensure every detail is exactly as planned.
Why Homeowners Prefer Design-Build
- Saves Time: Because design and construction overlap, projects finish faster.
- Controls Costs: Budget is established early and tracked throughout.
- Simplifies Communication: One team, one contact, one vision.
- Improves Quality: Collaboration between designers and builders avoids mistakes.
