How To Avoid Building & Design Problems |
|
| |
During our 60
years of Building “Only” churches we see church
committee’s
make these common mistakes. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Buy Plans
off the Internet. |
|
| |
Advertised as
Cost Saving Architectural Designs. See Church
Internet plans came about after internet house
plans became the rage. Cookie cutter internet
house plans were put in place to meet single
families needs , however they all have basically
the same rooms ,such as 3 bedrooms, den, living
room, two baths, kitchen and garage each
arranged in numerous configuration all built on
a 50 x150 lot. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Churches on the
other hand do not fit cookie cutter plans
because they serve 100‘s
to 1,000‘s
of families which in return serve an entire
community so careful personal design criteria
are not considered with internet plans. Here’s
a test, drive around and look at 10 churches in
your area, then write down how many look alike,
have the exact same floor plan or are built on
the same land size as yours (none). So what are
the chances their plan will meet your site or
your
memberships long term needs. We see clients
throw an average of $100,000 of these plans away
every year, or pay thousands to redesign the
internet plan to meet their goals. |

Metal
Building Shells. |
|
| |
Churches see
the commercials on T.V. “60 x 100 building only
$50,000”. Don’t
forget this is a shell “only” . It may seem like
a bargain until you start finish out. $$$$$. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Improper
Land evaluation: |
|
| |
We see churches
waste hundreds of thousands of dollars because
they failed to consider proper site development.
Some failures include how land location affects
future growth, improper building location on
site in relation to future growth, long term
changes in city codes, property traffic access,
site drainage, storm sewer, detention ponds,
utilities now or in the future. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Budget
Failure: |
|
| |
Some feel they
need to hire an architect for a full set of
Plans in order to know how much their project
will cost? Then after spending ten’s
of thousands of dollars; hundreds of committee
hours; they find out the building is over
budget. A church Building Specialist has
the answers economically. |
|

|
|

Future
Planning pitfalls: |
|
| |
We see churches
needing to expand seating, educational,
fellowship etc., only to face excessive cost
because of lack of proper original planning.
Reason vary from improper existing ceiling
heights, improper original location of
fellowship hall, class room, offices or parking
layout. Remember you should never pay for
something twice. |

shopping centers, commercial contractors build
warehouses and offices. Church Specialist build

Dentist, if your a victim of robbery you call a
policeman, have a fire, call a fireman. Need a
church built call a Church Building Specialist.
