Design-Build is more than a construction method — it’s a smarter, owner-focused way to deliver commercial projects across Louisiana. At E.L. Habetz, we streamline the process by uniting design, engineering, and construction under one roof. For owners, that means reduced risk, clearer communication, and projects that finish on time and on budget.
From the very beginning, owners, architects, engineers, and builders collaborate as one team. This alignment minimizes costly change orders, prevents delays, and ensures design decisions match real-world construction needs.
With over 50 years of experience as a Louisiana design-build contractor, our team leads every step with detailed planning, open communication, and proven construction expertise. From feasibility studies to final inspections, we deliver results owners can count on.

Design-build is a more efficient way to get your project done because one team—ours—handles both the design and the construction. Instead of hiring an architect first and then bringing in a separate contractor, we take care of everything from the first sketches to the final walkthrough. This keeps the process simple, saves time and money, and makes communication easy since you’re working with one dedicated team from start to finish.
The cost of a design-build project depends on the scope, size, and materials you choose. Because design and construction are managed under one contract, you get more accurate pricing earlier in the process. This approach minimizes unexpected expenses and helps keep your project within budget. Our team provides detailed estimates and value-engineering options to give you the best results for your investment.
Timelines depend on the size and complexity of the project, but design-build is almost always faster than the traditional process. Because we coordinate directly with architects, engineers, and subcontractors from day one, schedules are more efficient and delays are minimized. For smaller commercial renovations, projects may take around 3–6 months. Larger new builds like office buildings, medical facilities, or retail centers typically range from 9–18 months.
