Design-Build · In-House Drafting
Plans and construction, one contract.
Design-build means we draft your plans in-house and build them under the same contract. Fewer hand-offs between a separate designer and a builder, clearer budgets, and a faster path from idea to permit.
The traditional way to build is to hire a designer, get plans, then shop those plans to contractors — and discover in the bids that the design costs more than you planned, or needs changes the designer isn't around to make. Design-build closes that gap. The people drawing the plans are the people building them, so the budget and the drawings agree from the start.
What in-house drafting gets you
A budget that matches the drawings. We draft with construction cost in view, so you're not designing something that gets value-engineered later.
Faster permits. Plans are prepared for the county submittal from the beginning, so there's less back-and-forth before work can start.
One accountable party. If something needs to change mid-build, the drafting and the construction are the same team. No finger-pointing between a designer and a contractor.
Where it applies
Additions and ADUs, kitchen and bathroom layout changes, custom homes, and commercial build-outs and tenant improvements. If your project needs plans, this is usually the faster, clearer way to get them.

What Clients Say
Trusted on every job.
★★★★★My new home construction was abandoned by the original contractor and Sam helped me get the house done. Communication is key and with Sam it was easy. He listened to what I needed done and didn't try to up-sell me on anything.

★★★★★We had damage to our roof and the side of our house that needed to be repaired and Palafox Prestige Construction not only did an excellent job but they were done in 2 days! I would highly recommend their services.

★★★★★Samuel's team completely remodeled one of my apartment units in Dinuba. I honestly feel that I was able to sell my apartments, in a timely manner, because of the quality work that he has done over the years.
