About Design to Build

Curious about design to build and its approach? It's a relatively new concept that's gaining traction in the construction industry, and for good reason. When Tim and Blair, the founders of Fears Construction and B Design of Shorewood, IL, respectively, joined forces, they saw the immense potential of this methodology. Here's how they combined their expertise in design and construction to create Fears Construction featuring B Design.

While design-to-build may seem expensive at first glance, it is typically more cost effective than traditional design-bid-build projects. This is because we work closely with you throughout the process and invest heavily in planning upfront. This collaboration eliminates communication silos and minimizes costly changes down the road.

We remain committed to our roots, serving residents and businesses in Shorewood, Naperville, Plainfield, Joliet, and the surrounding areas with their design and build needs. Our local expertise ensures that each project reflects the unique character of our community.

We take a holistic approach meaning no job is too big or small. And Tim loves helping clients with everything from changing light bulbs to building an entirely new home.

I'm very happy with the service I received for Fears Construction. Jake was extremely diligent and responsive during a project I had at home. For a project I was expecting to take weeks to fix, the company got out there, assessed the situation, got the appropriate personnel on-site and fixed the issue all within the course of a week. Jake continued to keep me in the loop throughout the repairs regarding the work being done and the estimated completion date.
