Services
Plan Design
A blueprint is only the beginning of the building process, and a plan is not feasible until it is considered against the feasibility of a specific lot. Our plan design process is holistic and considers details that architects alone do not.
Site Planning
Whether your lot is an odd shape or is at risk of inadequate drainage we take it all into consideration alongside your home design. Our team is always thinking ahead and proactively working with you to tweak designs to optimize the site while delivering on your vision.
Project Planning
Budgeting & Cost Optimization
Whether you prefer a fixed fee model, cost-plus or the flexibility of time and materials we will help you optimize your investment by looking for every opportunity to get more out of every dollar. Through monthly reconciliation and reporting, you will remain informed about spend while continually being involved in decision making at every stage of work.
Financial Guidance
Our decades of experience have shown us that there are numerous ways to finance a building project – many of which are not evident to buyers. We will help you understand your options and provide recommendations and referrals to help make the dream a reality.
Transparency is a trademark of a Babcock Builds project. We work collaboratively with you to plan every phase of your build, and solve for obstacles in real time all along the way.

“Babcock Builds recently completed our home on Lake Lanier in Dawsonville. Bob and his team helped us design, budget, finance and build the entire project. From HOA approval through decorator selections, Babcock guided us and handled the project. We are very excited about our home and very pleased. We fully recommend Babcock Builds."

"We have lived in our Babcock Built home for about two years now. Working with Bob and his designer, we modified / personalized our house plan and then had them build the house on our property. The job took about a year, and we could not be happier with our beautiful home. Bob and his team are experienced professionals and we are happy to recommend them!"
Bryan and Nancy W: Marietta, GA
