What Is the Design-Build Process?expand_more

With the design-build process at Robinson Renovation & Custom Homes, you work with one team from start to finish, designers and builders under the same roof, so your project moves smoothly from initial idea through construction without the stress of coordinating separate professionals.

Here’s a quick look at how it works:

  1. Initial Consultation:
    We start by listening to your goals, needs, style preferences, and budget so we understand what matters most to you.
  2. Preliminary Proposal:
    After that first conversation, you’ll receive a preliminary design agreement and budget outline to make sure we’re aligned before moving forward.
  3. Design Development:
    This is where your ideas take shape. You’ll work with our designer to refine layouts, materials, and finishes that reflect your vision.
  4. Final Proposal:
    Once plans are finalized, we present a complete set of specifications and a final price so you know exactly what to expect.
  5. Pre-Construction:
    With plans approved, we coordinate permits, materials, and scheduling while introducing you to your project team.
  6. Construction:
    Your project comes to life, with your superintendent and project manager keeping things on track and communicating progress.
  7. Final Walk-Through:
    When work is complete, we walk the space together to ensure everything meets your expectations.
  8. Closeout & Warranty:
    Even after move-in, we stand behind our work and are here to support you if anything comes up.
How Much Does a Home Remodel, Addition, or ADU Cost in Gainesville, FL?expand_more

Project costs in Gainesville can vary widely because no two homes or homeowners are exactly the same. The age of your home, the scope of work, structural needs, material selections, site conditions, and permitting requirements all play a role. 

  • Bathroom Remodels: $35,000 to $50,000+
    Costs depend on size, layout changes, plumbing updates, and finish selections.
  • Kitchen Remodels: $70,000 to $125,000+
    Pricing is influenced by cabinetry, appliances, layout changes, and the level of customization.
  • Home Additions: $40,000 to $150,000+
    Additions vary widely based on size, foundation type, structural work, and how the new space connects to the existing home.
  • In-Law Suites & ADUs (Attached or Detached): $50,000 to $300,000+
    These projects range from simple conversions to fully detached living spaces with kitchens, bathrooms, and separate utilities.

The best way to understand what your specific project may cost is to talk through your goals, your home, and your options with Robinson Renovation & Custom Homes. We’re happy to help you understand the potential cost of your unique project.

How Much Does a Custom Home Cost in Gainesville, FL?expand_more

For many projects in the Gainesville area, custom homes typically range from $160 to $220+ per square foot, depending on the level of customization and finishes.

Custom home pricing in Gainesville is influenced by many of the same factors as remodeling, but on a larger scale. Home size, architectural complexity, site conditions, material selections, energy-efficiency goals, and long-term durability all affect the final cost. Because every custom home is designed around the homeowner’s priorities, pricing is best understood as a range rather than a fixed number.

The most accurate way to determine what a custom home may cost for your needs, your lot, and your long-term plans is to have a conversation with Robinson Renovation & Custom Homes.

We’ll help you understand your options and align design decisions with a realistic budget before moving forward.

Our Design-Build Process

Our proven design-build process covers every step of the remodeling journey. It’s our preferred method of building new spaces because it’s clear, concise, and encourages a high level of collaboration. Here’s an example of what to expect:

01 | Discovery and Proposal

It all begins with your initial consultation. Your team will meet with you to learn about your project goals and your budget. Next, we’ll give you a preliminary scope and budget. If everything looks great, you’ll sign the design agreement.

 

 

02 | Design and Pre-Construction
You’ll work with our designers to create a plan that includes every need and want, that fits within your budget. Product selection takes place next, where you’ll choose every style aspect of your new space. You can also refine your design plans at this stage to make certain you’ll be happy with your design. Once the final plans are complete, a final price will be presented and the contracts are signed. Finally, your materials can be ordered, schedules made, and permits obtained.
03 | Construction and Walk-Through
With your Project Superintendent and Production Manager as your points of contact, you’ll be kept informed about every detail and expectation. They will also keep a close eye on the development of your project throughout the entire process, ensuring that the job stays on schedule and is built according to plan. Once construction is finished, you will walk through the cleaned site with your Superintendent and check off every detail. If any issues are noticed that go against predetermined expectations, we’ll address them right away.

What Our Clients Think

“For us, this was a large project and we have never done anything of this scope before. Scott and Jason did a fantastic job managing it and making things run smoothly. They were very helpful making the design the architect created fit into our budget and still make it look great! While purchasing the space, we looked at several builders and Scott made us feel the most comfortable with the job and managing the situation with tenants still working during construction.”
