No. Although it can be an asset, if you don't have plans we have an estimator/designer on staff so we can put your ideas and sketches on paper. If you have plans that are not quite right or don't meet local building code, we can adjust those as well.

No. Our basements are placed in concrete forms. The forms are removed when the concrete has cured. You can actually see the concrete to ensure the structural integrity. The exterior wall of the main levels are wood construction with 1" lumber sheathing, not OSB. Wood building materials, which are produced locally, are a renewable resource and have a lower carbon footprint than the alternative choices. Another advantage is if any changes are made during construction they can be easily be made at a much lower cost, not to mention the savings on any future renovations.
Cleaner and Greener, "Wood First" has always been our policy.

Yes. All our completed homes are enrolled in the Atlantic Home Warranty Program. We follow their guidelines for renovations as well. There are also product specific warranties that we are happy to help guide you through.
Feel free to ask, we have a staffed office that is readily available to respond to any questions or concerns. We always welcome your input.
During the first year after construction, it is common for minor drywall cracks to appear as your home settles. We will fix these at no cost to you, while minimizing any mess in your new home.
