Design-Build Whole Home Remodeling Contractor
As a leading design-build remodeling contractor who has worked in Montgomery County for over 30 years, Merrick Design and Build is committed to making the remodeling process as serene as possible. We recognize that building a trusting relationship with our clients is just as important as the work we do in our clients’ homes. Check out our five-step process, created & refined for your peace of mind:
- Project Discovery – First, we want to establish that we are a good fit. Ever heard of the “Two Beers and a Puppy” test? We want to start off our client-builder relationship by passing that test!
- Design – The first phase of the design process is the Design Agreement. Once the first design phase is completed, your Design Agreement will provide a blueprint for your vision, a construction budget summary sheet, and a basic layout and design plans.
- Pre-Construction – Upon the acceptance of the Construction Contract, a 10% deposit invoice will be issued and the Merrick Team will undergo the following steps to prepare for construction. You and your Merrick designer and Project Manager will meet to hand off the management of your project to make sure you are comfortable with your production team.
- Construction – “Under construction” looks different for each and every project. Each home and each project is unique and is handled by one of our expert Project Managers who will be your day-to-day contact for construction. They are responsible for overseeing your project and the team of dedicated professionals and craftsmen who will bring your project to life.
- Completion – At the end of your project, you will meet with your Project Manager to walk through the finished space together in what we call an “owner orientation meeting” to review how any new features operate as well as general care and maintenance. Now, the only step left is for you to enjoy your transformed space!

Home Remodeling FAQs
What will my home remodel cost?
This is the question everyone asks and the truth is, we don’t have an answer for you…yet.
To provide an answer to this question, we need to enter into a Design Agreement and nail down all the specifics of your remodel. For example will your remodel include new floors or flooring refinishing? Will we be painting the entirety of your home or just a few rooms? Just those two questions have significant cost implications and there are hundreds more just like it.
How long will it take to remodel my home?
Ultimately this is up to you. Our design process is pressure free if you need to see multiple designs and take months to make your selections to feel comfortable proceeding with your remodel, we are ok with that. The fastest we can speed through the process from conception to final inspections is 6-12 months. This varies by the size of the home, the municipality jurisdiction providing permits and inspections, and the availability of materials.
Is it better to remodel everything at once, or should I do it room by room?
It is more efficient to remodel several rooms or areas of your home at one time. And because it is more efficient, the total overall investment is often less than doing one project at a time. However, we understand this is a bigger upfront cost and over the years we have worked with several clients to remodel their homes in phases. If this is something you are interested in please let us know. When pursuing this plan, we recommend designing the full remodel from the very start so that we don’t build anything in earlier stages that may need to get undone later on.
Do you offer financing?
At Merrick, we do not offer in-house financing, but we have a couple of trusted lenders that we recommend. Learn more about our preferred lenders, here.
Is remodeling a house cheaper than building a house?
Yes and no. The more that you change about your existing home, the more it will cost and there is a tipping point when it will become more cost-effective to just start from scratch. Our designers can help you discover what’s possible with your existing home and if we can’t find the right solutions for your family’s needs with a remodel we know a great new home builder we can recommend.
