Skilled labor plays an essential role in the custom renovation process. BUILDING TRUST BLOG KEEP THESE TRADES Skilled labor plays an essential role in the custom renovation process. Back to Blog 2020-03-06 What do you want to be when you grow up? “Carpenter” or “tile installer” probably wasn't at the top of your list. A shrinking number of people consider a career in the trades, but they should. Tradesmen and artisans have been vital to every civilization - Egypt, Greece and Rome not withstanding. Today these roles are equally valuable to our society, though often under appreciated. Here are 7 undeniable ways tradespeople enrich our lives. They make things beautiful - Maybe you can cut and lay tile with precision. Not many can. Those with this ability add tremendous visual appeal to a home, and tile is just one example. They make things functional - Layout and spacing may look great on paper, but a gifted carpenter knows if it's buildable. They take conceptual and make it functional. They fix what breaks - Have you ever experienced a major plumbing problem? You know the sheer joy of finding someone to fix it, so it never happens again. They educate - When a good electrician tells you how to stay safe around electricity, listen! This willingness to share insight might just save you life. They create space to live - Your place of employment, gym, grocery store, and hospital all have one thing in common. They would not exist apart from tradespeople. They provide protection - Your family would not be safe if the walls of your home couldn't keep out weather, animals, or other people. They establish stability - A true craftsman does work that lasts. Imagine your cabinetry needing to be replaced every 3 months. Your life would feel very unsettled. Fortunately, at Daniel Builders we’ve partnered with some of the best artisans, craftsmen, and tradespeople in the upstate. Their skill and contribution to our business cannot be overstated. We promote the tremendous value of those who work with their hands. Are you contemplating a major home renovation?

Walls throughout this renovation were removed allowing for the interior to be totally transformed to create a seamless, open floor plan between a stunning kitchen and great room with vaulted ceiling. OPEN CONTEMPORARY KITCHEN Lake Keowee 2020 Pinnacle Award Kitchen Multi Room This gorgeous lakeside remodel began with an intent to open up the compartmentalized floor plan taking full advantage of the impressive view, as well as to enhance the character of the home through unique architectural features and high-end finishes. The Daniel Builders design team and homeowner collaborated to concept an open layout, removing load bearing walls and creating a seamless flow between the entry, kitchen, dinette, and living area. Large sliding doors surrounded by new, custom windows and an arched transom maximize the lake view and modernize the aesthetic. These additions, along with large windows in the kitchen bring substantially more natural light into the home than existed before. The kitchen features approximately a hundred square feet of counter-to-ceiling glass tile backsplash and a 5’x9’ seamless island countertop of Skara Brae Polished Cambria. The living area boasts a custom fireplace with painted wainscoting and a Cambria surround. Overhead the vaulted ceiling is detailed with Timber Truss Beams that draw the eye to appreciate this focal point in the space. Nine hundred square feet of LVP flooring unifies the different spaces as a whole and the custom rail and wrought iron baluster design provides a beautiful anchor between the different living areas. No detail was too small nor left untouched in fulfilling our client’s vision for this lakeside retreat. Previous Next Back to Projects Gallery

Billy Zion and Andy DeLeonardis are Design gurus. BUILDING TRUST BLOG BY DESIGN Billy Zion and Andy DeLeonardis discuss the Design process. Back to Blog 2020-06-11 Meet two integral people on the Daniel Builders Design Team. Billy Zion and Andy DeLeonardis. We’d like to introduce our Design manager Andy DeLeonardis and in-house architect Billy Zion. In this interview with The Building Trust Blog they share some great Design-Build insight. Andy DeLeonardis, Design Manager Billy Zion, Architect BTB: What is the purpose of a Design team? Andy: We ultimately make the renovation process more efficient and less costly. Our Design team clarifies a myriad of unknowns, so the Build phase is straightforward and stress free. The mission is accomplished when everyone understands and shares the same expectations. Billy: Definitely agree! The Design Team is vital because it opens the line of communication between Designer and Builder very early in the process. This ensures the owner’s vision is properly documented and clarified to help eliminate surprises, disappointments, or budget overages later on. BTB: Couldn’t a client just start with an architect, then find an interior designer, then submit everything to multiple Builders for competitive bids? Andy: They absolutely could, but getting all three together at the start has far greater benefit. Finger pointing is less likely when they're all on the same team, not to mention the client can determine cost much sooner. Billy: Our Design Team has a unique bond and a creative culture that cannot be replicated by hiring separate professionals who work outside of a cohesive team. BTB: What type of projects require a Design? Billy: I would argue all require some form of Design. Building without a plan or a purpose can/will produce results that look unprofessional and “pieced-together”. Smaller projects like powder rooms or laundry rooms may not require as many drawings as a new home or a large addition, but every square foot needs to be carefully planned so fixtures and appliances and finishes are efficiently located/arranged. Our Design Process ensures the owner’s vision is maintained and the end product will look intentional and well-crafted. BTB: How long does the Design Process take? Andy: Average is around 6 - 8 weeks but the size and complexity of a renovation obviously factor in. Billy: Not long enough :) BTB: How do you guide clients through Design decisions? Andy: Pictures, visits to showrooms, previous project examples, etc. We utilize several methods to determine the final selections for a project… lots of discussion about how to incorporate the style of selections with existing home design and areas that are being renovated. Billy: Visualizing the end result is crucial. We use 3D rendering to show the owner several realistic images during the Design Process to help them decide which designs will look the best within their context. These images ensure we envision what the client envisions. BTB: Can a client change the design once construction starts? Andy: Of course, but we try to help clients clarify everything on the front end. Our Design process is pretty thorough, so the client has an opportunity to make changes before moving into the Build phase. Billy: I usually tell clients the Design Process never ends (I know Builders hate that). Changes during construction come at a cost, but sometimes the best ideas don’t show up until walls start forming spaces. BTB: How does having an architect (Billy Zion) on staff help the Design Process? Andy: Billy has helped us reach a whole new level of efficiency. He’s an expert in architecture, but he's also a true team player. Billy is always accessible and responsive. He gives the insight and feedback we need to keep projects moving forward. Billy: More communication and more understanding of each person’s role... Bridging the gap between Designer and Builder. The Architect and Builder are constantly communicating and learning from one another so that the Design Process can be streamlined to move projects from concept to construction more quickly than conventional design/bid/build. Knowing what the Builder needs to begin construction, the Architect can be sure no time is wasted producing unnecessary documents. BTB: What is the coolest project you ever designed? Billy: Probably the BBQ restaurant I designed a few years ago. I love the process of creating…. and eating good BBQ so being able to work with the owner to create a building designed specifically for cooking, serving, and enjoying pulled pork and chicken and ribs really made my mouth water. Even though it was a new build, the building design was based on local barn vernacular, so the end result was a clean, modern BBQ joint inside of a familiar, rustic shell. BTB: What is the best part of your job? Billy: Riding my bike to work and kicking David Bass (Production Super) out of his office :) Seriously…. I enjoy working with like-minded Christian men and women who are truly here to serve God by serving others. It’s obvious that from Design through Build, Daniel Builders is all about building trust and strong relationships with their clients. Are you contemplating a major home renovation?

Keep it dry under the deck. BUILDING TRUST BLOG DRY SPACE Keep it dry under the deck. Back to Blog 2021-03-01 Utilize outdoor space under a deck by keeping it dry. Blog showcases turning space under a deck into a dry area for hanging-out when raining. Finding extra space is a problem, but few realize they may be standing on the solution. Do you have a deck over 7ft tall? Recently one of our lead carpenters, Jeremy Kent, went to work underneath an existing deck to install the ZipUp Under-deck System . The result is beautiful (a definite upgrade in aesthetics) and practical (can be enjoyed rain or shine). Jeremy chronicles this project below. An "After" video is available here .

See your custom renovation in 3D before its reality. BUILDING TRUST BLOG BE CLEAR See your custom renovation in 3D before its reality. Back to Blog 2020-11-12 Our Design team can utilize 3D renderings like these on large, multi-room renovations. They are unbelievably realistic, and sometimes difficult to distinguish from an actual photograph. In addition to this WOW factor, 3-D renderings have 7 practical benefits for both client and contractor. Clarifies Vision - Why waste a thousand words (or more) when a picture is available? A rendering can accelerate clarification for all involved in the renovation process and provides far more clarity than 2D renderings. Identifies Problems - Is the renovation feasible to build? A 3D rendering helps identify structural integrity issues and enhances spacial awareness. Reduces Delay - What is the #1 way to ensure a successful renovation? Answer: Establish shared expectations between contractor and client. Unshared expectations cause inefficiencies, frustrations, and can easily turn into a renovation train wreck. A 3D rendering showcases an outcome everyone can understand. Reveals Options - Is there a mental block regarding Design ideas? A clear project rendering triggers ideas and inspiration. Optimizes Distribution - Would hearing the opinion of others be helpful? 3D rendering software is easy to upload and share via Dropbox. Being able to efficiently share a rendering allows for rapid feedback from friends and family. Strengthens Accountability - Does the renovation match the 3D rendering? If not, why not? A 3D rendering creates a visual agreement between contractor and client. It’s the standard by which a finished renovation can be evaluated. Any discrepancy can be traced to a responsible party. Prevents Letdown - Are you happy with the finished product? No one wants to regret a big purchase. And a contractor especially doesn’t want (or shouldn’t want) anyone to experience buyer’s remorse. Afterall happy clients are the link to future business. Seeing the finished renovation before moving forward minimizes letdown. Blindly buying a custom renovation isn’t necessary. See it first with a 3D rendering and move into the build process with confidence. Are you contemplating a major home renovation?

This custom home renovation project won Best Overall renovation in the $600K-$700K renovation category in South Carolina. 2022 2022 BRIDGE AWARD WINNER (600K - 700K) CONTEMPORARY OPEN CONCEPT Daniel Builders was named 2022 Bridge Awards Winner for “Best Overall, Best Bathroom, Best Kitchen, and Best Exterior in a Full Home Remodel $600K-$700K” for the “Carnelda Drive” house. The Bridge Awards are presented annually by GBS Building Supply and produced by the Home Builders Association of Greenville to recognize excellence in craftsmanship and professionalism in the Home Building industry in the Upstate. "THIS PROJECT PRESENTED SIGNIFICANT CHALLENGES FOR OUR TEAM. SO MUCH OF THE ORIGINAL STRUCTURE WAS POORLY CONSTRUCTED. THE MORE WE DEMOED, THE MORE WE REALIZED WE NEEDED TO DEMO UNTIL WE NEARLY HAD A BLANK CANVAS. GETTING THE PROJECT TO AN AWARD-WINNING LEVEL IS A LOT OF VALIDATION FOR OUR TEAM." - BOB CORD, DANIEL BUILDERS At the project kick-off, the client sincerely asked, “Is this not the ugliest house you’ve ever seen?” They went on to describe their vision for their home which included a more modern feel, higher ceilings, more natural light, space to entertain friends and family and to be able to see straight through the entrance of the house to beautiful Lake Keowee. The original home had low ceilings, dark wood paneling on the walls and several small rooms that made entertaining very difficult. The clients desired a more modern look on the exterior which we achieved by raising the roof, adding some architectural interest at the entry, painting the stone and using a composite material on some of the siding and decking to give a wood look without the added maintenance. Some unique features of the inside of the house included: a vaulted ceiling with timber beams, wood slat wall in the bar area, a hidden pantry entrance in the kitchen, a Zen-like shower with loose stones in one master bath and tile slat walls and a walnut floating vanity in the other. Wood beams in the ceilings highlighted the drastic change in ceiling height as did the new clerestory windows. This home went from being a dark and dreary 1970’s ranch to a sleek contemporary lake home filled with lots of natural light and wood elements, reminding you that it is a lake house after all and it’s ALL about that VIEW!!

Understand the Design Build advantage before your undergoes a custom renovation. BUILDING TRUST BLOG WHY DESIGN BUILD Understand the Design Build advantage before your undergoes a custom renovation. Back to Blog 2017-03-07 A Design Build approach is highly advisable when your home is about to undergo a custom renovation. What makes a major renovation stressful? Well, for starters, a lot of money (not to mention your home) is at stake. Then you have an endless list of “what ifs?” Like, what if my contractor and I aren't on the same page? Or, what if we have unknown expenses? What if the finished project doesn't come close to what we expected? It's not hard to see how quickly stress can build. Renovation stress needs to be addressed well before a project begins. Failure to get clarity may result is some serious misery. Daniel Builders addresses renovation stress with a Design-Build approach. Design-Build is a process that allows our customers to “kick the tires” (so to speak) before committing to a major renovation. Here’s how it works. We start the process by listening. We carefully listen to you describe your project in your own words. This usually happens in a meeting at your home. After you articulate your renovation ideas and a general budget, we craft a Design/Build agreement. The agreement guarantees 3 important deliverables - a detailed scope, plans (and possibly renderings) and a price. So how does Design-Build minimize renovation stress? Here are 5 stress-reducing reasons to choose Design-Build for your next major renovation. Clarifies Expectations - In renovation work the phrase “I didn’t expect...” is usually followed by something negative. Like, I didn’t expect my project to take so long. Or I didn’t expect my contractor to use such cheap materials. And the sword is double edged. Contractors can easily feel the same way when customers aren't communicating. Successful renovations require both parties share the same expectations. A Design/Build approach clarifies the design, scope, cost, material selections and timeline so those “I didn’t expect…” conversations don’t happen. Saves Time and Money - Without a detailed scope, design, and quote you're basing your renovation on a lot of assumptions. Assuming anything in a renovation is risky, and often leads to re-work (ie. doing it over), which is time-consuming and costly. Who ultimately pays for re-work? The contractor? The customer? Both to some degree. Design-Build allows you to avoid this troublesome scenario altogether by clarifying scope, design, and quote before construction begins. Design-Build also allows the contractor to provide input early in the design process. Having a contractor participate in the design phase ensures the project is feasible. This approach puts contractor and architect on the “same page” from the start. Simplifies the Process - As the diagram indicates, a Design-Build approach creates fewer steps in the renovation process. Translation: it’s efficient. The customer isn’t required to evaluate and coordinate among architects, engineers (if necessary), and contractors bidding on the project. Instead, every step of the project is predetermined to eliminate unnecessary steps. Provides an Exact Price - Ever experience sticker shock? Sticker shock occurs when you're billed much more than you expected. Not fun. Better to know the price before it’s too late. This is exactly why “estimates” are so dangerous. They typically change, and often in an upward direction. A quote based on a Design-Build approach doesn’t change. All factors contributing to cost (such as time, materials, and labor) are carefully calculated based on your budget. Only one person can change your price - you. Creates Peace of Mind - Uncertainty leads to stress. Design/Build removes uncertainty and clarifies the outcome. As mentioned earlier, its the closest thing to “kicking the tires” the renovation world has to offer. Knowing the outcome allows you to relax and turn your attention to more important matters. Like how much you, your family and friends will enjoy your newly renovated home! Are you contemplating a major home renovation?

Back to Blog 2023-03-20 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PPcAMIc8bJs You’ve heard the stories before. Client goes to a custom builder with a big dream. Builder says no problem and off they go building, when seemingly out-of-the-blue MAJOR problems arise. Questions and fears multiply. Will my project ever be complete? How much added cost? And ultimately how bad can this get? A ton of money, time, sanity and yes someone's very home is at stake. On this episode of Ready, Set, Renovate! Hailey Evans shares how she worked hard to keep her custom home from turning into a contractor horror story. She and her builder (not Daniel Builders) thought they had a good idea how everything would go, but those expectations changed radically after a few months of building, and not for the better. Issues surrounding COVID only added to the difficulties. Being a “can-do” person, Hailey rolled up her sleeves and became the self-appointed project manager for her custom home. Pretty remarkable considering she had zero experience as a builder! As she articulates, the learning process wasn't easy, but rewarding. Hailey was determined her custom home story would have happy ending. Fortunately, the ending was happy in more ways than one. Are you wanting to steer clear of a custom renovation horror story?
