Questions
What differentiates Gulfstream's design-build process?
We handle design and construction internally, eliminating communication gaps between architects and builders. This saves 20-30% in timelines while maintaining budget accuracy through unified project oversight.
Do you build outside Naples?
While headquartered in Naples, we serve Marco Island, Collier County, and surrounding Southwest Florida regions including Bonita Springs and Estero for custom home projects.
How do you handle project changes?
Our in-house design team accommodates modifications through Chief Architect software, providing real-time cost implications before approving any change orders.
Are hurricane-ready features included?
All structures incorporate impact-resistant windows, reinforced roofing, and elevation standards exceeding Florida Building Code for Category 5 storm protection.
Can I use my own architect?
We collaborate with client-chosen architects or utilize our in-house team. When using external designers, our construction managers ensure alignment with local permitting requirements.
How are subcontractors selected?
We maintain long-term relationships with vetted tradespeople across Southwest Florida, requiring annual quality audits and liability insurance verification for every project.
