FAQ

got questionsanswers here

Q: Are ADUs the same as carriage homes?

Yes. “ADU” is planner-speak for a small, self-contained home on the same lot as your main house. Locally, people say carriage home, laneway home, garage suite, or backyard suite. Different names, same idea: its own entrance, kitchen, and bath—close by, but private.

Q: Do you handle permits and rural approvals?

Yes. We coordinate development and building permits, along with all sub-trade permits and inspections. For rural projects, we also assess wells, septic capacity, access, and service availability up front. Flood fringe, septic, well and other reports are provided as part of the pre-construction package. Every homeowner provides input for the drawings, then we work closely with the architects to ensure building code compliance.

Q: How long does a typical carriage home take to build?

Most garage suites run 6-12 months after permit approval. Our goal is always to have predictable progress once foundation and framing begin.

Q: Can we live at home during a renovation?

It depends. Human, pet and worker safety come first. The goal is to minimize disruption, keep communication daily, and deliver a clean, safe space at the end of each day.

Q: How do you control budget and change orders?

We start with detailed scopes and allowances, confirm long-lead selections early. If you request a change, we price it before proceeding and adjust the schedule as needed. This discipline reduces drift, protects contingencies, and keeps the final number aligned with the priorities you set.

Q: What makes rural building different, and why choose you?

Rural homebuilding adds an extra layer of complexity to all utilities, deliveries and even some subtrades. This is where we shine because we have lived the rural lifestyle for over 20 years now; nothing beats first-hand knowledge and experience. You’ll see practical solutions - power, water, drainage, driveways - built right into the architectural plan. That fluency saves time, prevents redesigns, and results in a home that simply works.
