Question: David do your plans include mechanical and electrical drawings? Also do they meet Canadian and Ontario building code standards? Tim Tubman
Answer: We do not include mechanical as it is impossible to figure prior to knowing the orientation of the home. We do include electrical (schematic) showing light fixtures, outlet, switches and their locations, how they are connected. The only thing we do not provide is circuiting and wire sizes. We adhere to the IRC, for compliance with Canadian codes I would have to defer to a local authority on that. David

Question: We would like to know the specifics of the exterior? Is is stone, wood, etc. Also, are there any other choices on the exterior that you can send? i.e. all brick, brick & stone etc. We are very interested in this floor plan design, but are concerned about exterior maintenance. We would like a maintenance free exterior. Please advise any choices or suggestions. Thanks, Randy & Linda Harris, North Carolina.
Answer: Exterior materials are stone and a cedar shake material that could be a hardi-board product that is very low maintenance. The trusses in the gable could also be hardi-board, but that might take some thought as to how to achieve it. I would still recommend a high quality stain in the trusses.
