Yes, you can use one contractor for both design and construction — this approach is called design-build. It can save time, reduce costs, and improve communication since one team handles both the planning and execution of the project.

If your project includes complex systems like HVAC, working with a single contractor can also streamline the integration of those systems. For example, understanding the commercial HVAC system cost in advance helps the contractor design a solution that fits both your budget and performance needs.
