Vanman’s Design/Build Method
The cost of a building is determined by the design and drawings, not by a contractor's price. This means we have control of cost because we know the cost of what is being designed. Our architects are in daily communication with our project managers concerning selection of materials, installation details and various systems, which will result in the best construction value.
All materials and subcontracts are put out on the competitive market for bid. Therefore, the competitive bid market is not bypassed by having only one general contractor.
You, the owner, have only one firm that is held accountable, and one person to contact. All communication between you and Vanman Architects and Builders Inc. goes through one person who is responsible for streamlining communications and time schedules on your project.
The most significant savings are realized in your project's conceptual phases. Vanman Architects and Builders Inc. will work closely with you to maintain cost effectiveness throughout the design and construction process.

Why should you select Vanman?
Here is what our clients say...
“It was a pleasure working with you and every subcontractor you selected. I particularly appreciated how much everyone did to accommodate the church’s schedule, including those inevitably short notice funeral services. Your on site supervisor did an excellent job of keeping us informed on progress so that we in turn were able to keep the congregation up to date on what to expect next. We also appreciate how responsive everyone at Vanman has been on any follow up items since the project was completed.“
Pastor Greeves
Union Congregational Church
“The care and concern in building the structure was evident. Your on site supervisor was professional, yet related well with not only our staff, but with the myriad of people who came to our facility on a daily basis. Great concern was given to our schedule and constant use of the existing building.“
Pastor Kelly
Redeemer Lutheran Church
“We the Building Committee of Mt Olive Lutheran Church would like to thank you and your company for all the work and attention you gave to our recent building project. We were very impressed with the work and willing helpfulness of both Mark your on site supervisor and David your project architect. Mark was always straightforward with us, a hard worker, patient with the frustrations that occasionally arose, and paid great attention to detail.“
Eric Johnson, Chairman
Mt. Olive Lutheran Church
“On behalf of the Building Committee and myself, I wish to acknowledge the exemplary work done by your company. Pete, the site supervisor, was masterful in working with the many subcontractors as well as in his communications with me. Your project manager was pivotal in bringing our new church project to its successful conclusion. Additionally, as the Building Committee randomly checked with various subcontractors, we found uniform praise for your professionalism and the timely remittance of payments.“
Pastor Albert Thompson
First Congregational UCC
“We have the highest respect for and confidence in both the “design“ and “build“ capacities of Vanman. Their love for the mission of Christ’s Church is second to none and their skill at squeezing the most out of every dollar available is impressive.“
