From time to time, we receive requests for major modifications, such as increasing square footage of a home or roof rafter layout. Such requests are few, however, require more time to complete due to their complexity.

If you are considering on having modifications to a house plan made by a designer in your area, it may be in your best interest to order CAD files for that plan.

What is Red-Lining"?
The most common modification made to house plans is called ”Red-lining”. Changes to the plan are made directly on the set of plans using a red pencil or red ink. “Red-lining” is an acceptable method of modifying a plan for a myriad of changes that will not compromise the structural integrity of the home, including relocating walls that are “non-load-bearing”. You can make changes to the locations of windows and doors. You can include or remove a fireplace. There are many other options. Your experienced contractor will know your local codes requirements and will be able to do the “red-lining” for you. Be sure to check your local codes office to determine if this is an expectable method of plan modifications in your area.
