A Site Plan is usually required by building departments showing your building site location, boundaries, orientations, power, water, sewage, gas and road information. When required this can be developed through custom modifications at an hourly fee. This is an informative set to discuss with your builder, your building department, and your financial institution. This set will be labeled “Not for Construction”. When all adjustments are made and a one time use contract agreement is signed and all fees are paid a larger 24”x 36” PDF of the full set of these drawings will be sent.

​

2.   The full construction document permit applications can be adjusted to your specific building site and engineering calculation and seals can be applied (if required) for additional fees which varies by state and project size. When you are ready to apply for your building permit you will need to purchase our “License to Build”: This is a license agreement between you and us to build this design only one time. Once the agreement is signed, and all fees are paid we remove our “not for construction” label from your Construction Document Set with construction notations and specification so that you can work with your local builder, or as your DIY project, or using our traveling concrete building crew and apply to your building department for permitting. This license entitles you to build the proposed design (1) time.

​

3.  If additions are required by your building department to give you your building permit this team can develop the additions requested on an hourly fee basis. A few examples of other items your building might request may be a fire sprinkler plan, a septic plan, a well plan, a road plan, energy calculations, drainage plan, specific plumbing diagrams, etc. Every building department is slightly different. This team discusses with you the best strategies available when additions are requested.

 

4. A healthy home specification list is included on creating a living space that is Dry, Clean, Safe, Ventilated, Pest-free, Contaminant-free, and Well-maintained, filtering for good indoor air quality, safe filtered water, effective moisture and dust control, proper insulation, adequate lighting, sealed weather protection and non-toxic materials to prevent injury and illness. Key areas include air quality, moisture control, pest management, safety smoke/CO/radon alarms, contaminate free, and using healthy building materials inside and out.
