Where do I begin? How can I position my house on my site? Who can help me with planning?

• If you need help assessing building feasibility or house location your lot, Tamlin can arrange for one of our project managers to visit your site to meet with you to discuss your ideas. Often this results in identifying potential problems or risks that may have significant impacts on building costs or future development. With such a major investment in costs, why not try to minimize your risk now and get a second opinion? This may involve helping you arrange communication with other professionals such as “geotech” (soils testing), surveyors, septic/sanitary, structural engineering or other services (such as hydro, gas or propane).
• If you want to achieve a clearer understanding of what you can build and what your options might be, check out our Frequently Asked Questions Page (FAQs) here.
• We specialize in consulting with our clients to find the best arrangements for them. We can even arrange a site visit with you to help with your early planning.

Move Into Your New Dream Home

 

Our Timber Frame systems are assembled on site so quickly and so accurately you will be amazed. You can save weeks or months in construction time and especially when building in remote areas, this can often save thousands of dollars in costs. By taking advantage of our prefabricated building components and simple building systems the “shell” of your home will be put together fast and efficiently. Tamlin can also customize your building system to add an even higher level of premanufactured systems, such as pre-insulated walls and roof systems too. And meeting new building codes can be easily done by utilizing our insulated concrete forms for all your foundation work.

When you build with Tamlin, the price we quote won’t change by the time you build. Tamlin’s customized budget template help’s organize and itemize costs, even if there are still unknowns. It is important to reach us straight away if you are thinking of building a home in the next 12-24 months. We have information that can help.

It’s our goal…
