Expect a Streamlined Experience

Dacobi Builders is a family owned business that has the luxury of caring for our clients. Integrity, accountability, and service aren’t just keywords to us. We live out these values and stand behind them in our work. Please read below to learn more about our process. If you have any questions or would like to schedule a free design consultation, please contact us.

Step One: Initial Contact

We recognize that every project is unique. When you contact Dacobi Builders, we take the time to learn about your project and understand your needs. When applicable, we may ask to see pictures of your space and provide a basic review via email.


If the scope and scale are appropriately matched to our services, we then schedule an initial consultation. During the initial consultation, you can expect to spend about an hour discussing your wish list, timeline, and budget with the very same expert who will oversee your project. Basic measurements may be taken to determine a general “ballpark” estimate. There is no charge for this initial consultation.

Step Two: Design Process

After the initial consultation, a completed design plan is required to issue the formal estimate and construction contract. Our customers typically follow one of three pathways:


Designer Assistance

Need help? Work with our recommended designer to bring your vision to life. We listen carefully to your hopes, ideas, and objectives to evaluate the possibilities for your space. Reconciling a customer's vision to reality and budget can be a tricky process. We approach each project with a fresh perspective, thoughtful consideration, and diligent attention to detail. Our fee-based design agreement secures the creation of a detailed design plan to include:


  • Space planning
  • Kitchen and bath design
  • Cabinetry layout and design
  • Color palette design
  • Electrical and plumbing selections
  • Construction material specifications
  • Flooring, tile, and countertop material selections
  • Hardware selections


We produce a working 3D model to visualize your designs as they come to life. The collaborative process typically takes three to six weeks, depending on scope and scale, and concludes when all selections are specified and the design plan is complete. We provide you with a copy of your completed plan, and photo-realistic renderings to enjoy the anticipation of your new space.


Collaboration With Your Architect or Designer

Already have help? We collaborate with your architect or designer to build the space of your dreams.


Do It Yourself

Prefer to design your new space without help? This part of the process is typically the most time-consuming and challenging part for homeowners. Once you have created your design plan and made all your selections, we can issue a detailed estimate and proceed to the construction contract.

Step Three: Construction

Upon approval of the estimate, the next step is to sign the construction contract and make a deposit. Your contract will specify the scope of work, estimated timeline, legalities, payment schedule, and more. We’ll assign you a project manager, and schedule your tentative start date.


We understand how difficult it is to invest your hard-earned dollars into the great unknown of a general contractor’s hands. Thank you for considering Dacobi Builders!
