Design‑Build Services
From a Blank Page to a Masterpiece — One Unified Team
Knight Construction’s Design‑Build Division delivers a seamless, efficient, and highly coordinated approach to construction. Instead of juggling architects, engineers, designers, and contractors, you work with one team, one vision, and one point of accountability.
With over 25 years of hands‑on experience — from residential remodels to multi‑million‑dollar commercial and industrial projects — Joshua leads every design‑build project with precision, creativity, and structural mastery.
This is construction without confusion.
This is design without compromise.
This is how masterpieces are built.

Why Clients Choose Design‑Build
One Team, One Vision
No hand‑offs. No miscommunication.
Design and construction work together from day one.
Faster Timelines
Design‑build eliminates delays between architects, engineers, and contractors.
Flexible Contract Structures
Depending on the design and scope, projects may be completed under fixed‑price, cost‑plus, or hybrid contracts. Complex remodels may benefit from a cost‑plus structure for transparency during discovery.
Hands‑On Leadership
We personally oversees every phase, ensuring quality and accountability.
Better Design Decisions
Because the builder is involved from the start, designs are:
-
More accurate
-
More cost‑effective
-
More structurally feasible
-
More aligned with your goals
Reduced Stress
You don’t manage multiple companies.
You don’t coordinate communication.
You don’t chase updates.
We handle everything.
