What services do you offer?

What is included in the consultation meeting?

It includes a 30 minute consultation with Greg or Lance either in person or virtually. We will do our best to answer your questions about your project if you need some guidance in starting your project. 

How long does it take to get a set of plans?

On average, it is about 4-8 weeks but this of course can vary depending on multiple factors.

Do you provide an architectural stamp for your plans?

No, we just provide the design as we are not architects. I am self taught with over 35 years in commercial and residential construction.

We can provide engineering plans for an additional cost as well as hvac and framing plans. 

Do you handle permits and other regulatory issues?

No.

Can you design on an existing foundation and/or structure?

Yes, we do remodeling on existing homes.

Do you help track the cost in the design process?

In short, no because there are too many factors like labor and interior finishes that determine the total cost. We recommend that the client consults with the contractor. 

What you may need to know before starting your design with us

 

Do you need to have land before starting the design process?

No, that is not required as far as creating the design.

Yes, as with any structure if they are designed properly.

 

Are these plans transferable? 

No. The plans are property of Greg James Designs, LLC. We grant permission to build one home or building for the client the plans were sold to.
