With contractors, is there a way to both control cost and be totally happy with the finished results?  Yes, but it means finding exactly the right company to hire.  It's extremely common for contractors to bid artificially low by not specifying materials and fixtures, and so quote only the rock bottom cheapest, knowing that later when you see those, you'll insist on something better, and the price will go up. Others, have quoted deceptively low by avoiding telling you about the kind of unforeseen issues that often can't be discovered until the remodel is in progress, and they're counting on being able to submit change orders later to cover those increased costs.

According to local consumers we called as research for this article, luckily there's the Bexar County firm Rhino Design Build in San Antonio TX and owner Danny Garcia who they say can be counted on for complete honesty in pricing with detailed accurate bids, full disclosure upfront of possible unforeseen occurrences specific to each project, and a full range of options on materials and fixtures that ensure complete satisfaction with the outcome for years afterwards for residential and commercial projects alike including offices and retail.

 
Rhino Design Build in San Antionio TX: Proven to Do What They Say

Where other companies intentionally leave out detailed specifics from their estimates in order to seem deceptively lower than they really are, Daniel Garcia and Rhino Design Build gives more than a mere estimate, and instead provides actual itemized quotes that are accurate.  Danny Garcia tells us, "We spec out every brand we use, every material. It means the quoted price is the real price, not one that gets inflated later in the middle of the project."

And that means helping customers make their decisions before hand on those brands, fixtures, appliances and materials. Even when other companies address this, they often only give one or two choices, leading to clients who become dissatisfied with their choices later, saying they wish they had known all the options.  Rhino Design Build gives customers the full range of options, "We often show them 15 or 20 different choices. That way, they're completely happy for years after the job is done," says Danny.

Rhino Design Build does ground-up new construction as well as remodels of all kinds, and it's those especially where unforeseen issues come up later once you see what's under the floor or inside of a wall.  Other companies will avoid telling you about those possibilities, again to make their price seem lower, knowing you'll have no choice later but to approve a change order for the price increase. Unlike those companies, Danny Garcia is upfront about those possibilities, a level of honesty customers appreciate. He says, "We often will decide together on a contingency fee to cover those unforeseen items and when it doesn't get used, the customer gets it back. I don't know anybody else who does that for customers, but we do because it gives them peace of mind."

Customers of Rhino Design Build we called backed this up, like one named DJ who said, "Danny did some work for us about three years ago. We renovated an older home in San Antonio. It needed a lot of work. We gutted it, did a new foundation, new electrical, redid the kitchen, and added on about 900 square feet. There's a few issues we had being an older home, things you can't foresee. But Danny was upfront with us and gave us some options and made the whole process good. He came in on budget. I would definitely recommend Danny."

Why does Danny Garcia and Rhino Design Build go to these lengths to bid honestly despite all the others who deceptively appear lower and then raise the price later? "We take pride in being known for delivering on what we say. This industry is littered with stories of guys that don't deliver, so we do the opposite. Everything we say, we do. Because of that we have happier customers, more repeat business, and more referrals."

Being eager to recommend Rhino Design Build to others was one of the things we heard from customers we called as research for this article, like one customer Daniel who told us, "I had them perform a ground-up construction on an investment property a couple of years ago and I have referred them out to additional clients in the past and I would refer them out again."

Bexar County resident Danny Garcia lives in San Antonio TX where he was raised. He and his wife are newlywed and have just learned they are expecting. He learned the trade at a young age from his father who was an architect and builder, and Danny went on to be a draftsmen, and then a builder himself.  When describing Danny, customers use words like "reliable", "honest", and "dependable".   His company Rhino Design Build in San Antonio TX does both residential and commercial work, gives a 10 year structural warranty, and has financing options for clients who need it.

So it was local consumers who made it clear that the Bexar County firm Rhino Design Build in San Antonio TX and owner Daniel Garcia were the ones to choose for accurate honest price quotes that get met, a full range of options that leave them happy with the results long after the job has finished, and who have earned their repeat business and consistent referrals.  In the words of one customer named Thenia who we called for this article, "He was awesome. He did a patio for us and he a multipurpose room. He was very patient with us. He finished in a timely manner. The job he did was outstanding and I would refer him to anyone."
