Question 3

Do I need an architect to build a custom home in BC?

Accepted Answer

In BC, homes over a certain size (typically over 470 sq m or 5,000 sq ft) require drawings stamped by a registered architect. Smaller homes can use drawings prepared by a registered building designer. Budget Contracting works with experienced architects and building designers and can coordinate the full design process.

Question 4

What is the difference between a custom home builder and a production builder?

A production builder constructs homes from a limited set of pre-designed floor plans on land they own, with limited customization options. A custom home builder like Budget Contracting builds a home specifically designed for your lot and your lifestyle, with full control over every aspect of the design and finish.
