Linwood design experts work with you to develop the basic design concept and then draft preliminary plans which consider site specific issues including the placement of the home on the property.

Changes can easily be made to preliminary plans which are then used to produce construction blueprints. These blueprints typically incorporate foundation layouts and are pre-engineered to meet structural loading requirements. They are used to obtain building permits, local engineering approvals (if required) and for construction purposes.

This process of generating a site specific design is critical to the success of any custom building project. It considers all the complex variables involved so that the home can be built cost effectively while minimizing costly changes during construction.

Using off the shelf designs will usually not allow you to build your home efficiently on your property unless you have a level building site with no engineering or geo-technical issues.

Linwood site specific design considers the following variables:

• Site & structural engineering
• Zoning / Architectural guidelines / Access / Setbacks
• Placement of septic field / Well
• Orientation of the building
• Best construction practices, etc.

We offer over 300 existing designs in various collections that can be customized for your building site or we can create a unique design especially for you. Our sophisticated design software allows changes to be made easily to preliminary plans.
