Custom Design & Build
At Dwell Containers we work with top architects and designers to help plan every aspect of your build. Starting with civil engineering, surveying and creating a site plan, to final plans submitted for building permits, we can handle it all. Turn key solutions for your container project is something we do very well.
How to get started? The first step is deciding where and what you want to build. The next step is deciding on your timeline and budget. Once you know these 4 things you are ready to speak to some experts. Everyone likes to do some research before making a decision of this magnitude. Let us save you some time and give you the benefit of our experience and knowledge so you can make the best decision for you.
We offer feasibility studies for customers who want to determine what they can build. This is a comprehensive investigation by our team that will take care of all the research and legwork required to find out what you can build, how big and what the requirements are of the local municipality. This report also includes a budget assessment and recommendations based on the type of structure you wish to build, including requirements for foundation, insulation and other construction considerations. The cost of this study is fully refundable if you hire us to consult or build.
If you already know what you can build and have a budget and plan in mind, contact us and start the discussion. We will sit down with you, look at your plans and show you what you can do within your budget. We believe that if you have the desire and motivation, you can accomplish anything. We have many ways of building your project that we can offer to you that will suit your budget and timeline. Turn key solutions only require your authorization and agreement to a budget – we take care of everything else and hand off a complete finished product to you.
If you want more involvement and also want to save a little money along the way, hire Dwell Containers as Project Managers for your build. We will arrange drawings, engineering and site preparation on your behalf. We will find you the best rates (what we pay) and you will pay them all directly. We will charge a management fee on top of all services we arrange, but you can still save up to 20% or more from a regular turn key build. You will need to be more involved, be on site more often, and deal directly with ordering materials and paying tradesmen.
We can also help the D.I.Y customers who have the skills to do some or all of the construction themselves. Hire us through one of our consultation packages and we can help with design, drawings, permits and ordering and arranging fabrication on your container. We can offer our advice and site visits during your build with included consultation time. This can be used to help select trades, advise on build and fabrication issues, help in ordering materials, and dealing with the municipality, inspections and responsibilities.
Whatever your needs, we have a solution for you. To get started, go to our contact us form here and tell us a little about what you would like to build.
