Home Design Plans Without a Contract
We work with Rijus Home Design from Dunnville, Ontario for all of our house plans and design work. Rijus has been designing stunningly high quality homes for home builders since 1983 and understands the needs of today’s builders and buyers.
The benefit of working with a third party home designer is that you are not locked into building with any specific builder, the plans become yours and yours alone. We believe this freedom to be an advantage for you.
Example Home Designs
Below are a few examples of past designs that we have used to build homes for many people in Norfolk County. All homes are custom built for each individual buyer, and these represent just a glimpse at our capacity. We have worked with homeowners on small cottage projects and have also helped build multi-million dollar estates. The sky is the limit!
