Foundation Options:

Although most of our house plans are designed with a slab, basement, and crawlspace foundations, some plans are offered only with one or two of these. In most cases we can modify any of our plans to include your desired foundation option. Please, contact us to obtain a quote.

Architectural Seals:
Our plans are shipped without any Architectural seals or stamps. Some cities and states require plans to be reviewed and sealed by a locally licensed architect or engineer. We advise that you consult your local building official, who can tell you if such a review is required.

Building Codes:
All of our plans conform to the IBC (International Building Code) version at the time plans were produced. Since codes change over time and also depending on where you are planning to build, you may need to modify our plans to comply with local building requirements (snow loads, energy codes, seismic zones, etc.). We strongly recommend that you consult a local licensed architect or engineer and speak with a building official prior to applying for a building permit or construction.
