Number of Sets
Needed
Four sets of one plan is the
usual minimum number required: your contractor, local building department,
financing institution, appropriate government insuring agency, yourself
for future use. An extra set can save time and money replacing lost
or damaged blueprints. Subcontractors may also require an additional
set or sets. Our standard Plan Package is 5 sets.
Reverse Plans
If you desire, we will furnish reverse plans. If you find that a particular
house plan would suit you or your lot better if it were reversed, we
will (on request) send the blueprints in reverse of what is shown. There
is an additional $50.00 fee for this service.
Blueprint Changes
Your contractor can make changes in dimensions on your plans, in most
instances with little trouble. However, if you wish to make serious
alterations in the plans, why not look a bit further among our other
plans? You may find exactly what you want in another plan, or you may
find one that can meet your requirements with only minor changes.
Exterior Materials
If, for example, the house plan calls for frame siding, you can build
it of brick, concrete block or other material. Your contractor can do
this easily--only the width of the exterior walls must be adjusted.

Plans Sold Nationwide
Because our working-drawing blueprints are sold all over the country,
local building standards, such as energy-related codes, may vary from
area to area and must be understood to take precedence in actual construction.
These blueprints can only conform to local standards by reference to
local building codes, public utility company regulations, etc. in your
area. In addition, certain elements such as the heating plant must be
determined locally, depending on climate, building practices, and on
costs which vary from region to region, to insure their most efficient
and economical utilization.
