We want to help you build your dream property, while making it a stress-free and organized process, from start to finish.

“I would recommend CSIRA Design Build for any and all of your construction projects.”
They’ve worked on a variety of projects for me, and promptly provided detailed, well-organized bids. They always showed up on a time and completed the work as promised. If all contractors conducted their businesses like CSIRA Design Build, construction projects would be a breeze.

When you work with CSIRA Design Build on building your dream home, you can expect to:
Get Responses Quickly
Whether it’s to set up an initial meeting, send over a proposal, or answer a question, you can always expect to hear from us in a timely manner.
Know Your Costs Upfront
Before any plans are drawn, we work with you to nail down a preliminary budget, to make sure everyone is on the same page from the get go.
Avoid Surprise Expenses
There are always unexpected costs in any construction project, due to things that arise during the building process. To avoid surprises down the road, we provide regular budget updates as the planning process progresses.
Have One Point Of Contact
You will be assigned your own project manager, who will be your single point of contact for an easier communication process. They’ll update you daily, as well as make sure the project stays on schedule.
Be Treated With Respect
You and your business is important to us, and we treat every aspect of the job with the respect it deserves. As a client of CSIRA Design Build, you become a part of our family.
How the process works
First, we set up a free initial consultation at your property or our office. An estimator and designer (if required) will review your project in-depth with you. After, they’ll make some make recommendations based on your vision.
Next, an estimator will prepare a preliminary budget, based off of the initial consultation.
Then a formal contract will be submitted, assuming the budget is in line with your expectations.
If the plans for your property have already been completed by your architect/designer, we will commence construction. However, if you require architectural design as part of your project, then conceptual plans will be drafted.
Once the first round of conceptual plans are completed, we will meet to discuss what you like/dislike about the plans.
After the plans are finalized, they will be prepared for submission to the city.
After the city approves the architectural plans, an engineer is hired to draw and submit plans.
Once plans are reviewed by the city (and corrected if necessary), we will pull building permits and start construction.
During the entire build process, there will be constant communication between you, our project manager and our designer (unless separate design firm is utilized). Together, you’ll be going over updates, decision-making and coordination regularly.
Once your construction project has completed, there will be a warranty phase. Should any defects arise during this time period, we’ll remedy them quickly.
You could decide to work with a general contractor who is unfamiliar with the local regulation, and is heavily reliant on subcontractors to get the job done.
Or you could schedule a free consultation and learn how we can help you start off your construction project on the right foot, before you even break ground.
We want you to be one of our homeowners who says: “I can’t wait to work with you again!”

“I had the pleasure of working with CSIRA Design Build on a large remodel I recently completed in Laguna Beach.”
They were very competitive in their bid and comprehensive on their scope of work. The work they did was quite extensive, and I must say that I was extremely pleased with the result. The workmanship was impeccable, and the team was very professional, punctual and polite. The work was completed on time and they did not hesitate to come back to handle some loose ends at the end of the project. Building can always be stressful, but CSIRA Design Build made it a great experience. I would strongly recommend them to anyone.
