Modification Services: How to Customize Your Architectural Designs Plan
Finding the perfect house plan from Architectural Designs is a big step toward building your dream home. But even the best plans might need a few tweaks to fit your family’s daily routines and style. Maybe you want to change the foundation, switch the garage entry, or add a little more square footage. These small adjustments can make a big difference. With our modification services, you can easily make these changes without needing a fully custom design. In this post, we’ll walk you through how to request a quote for house plan modifications and what to expect from the process.
Customizing Your House Plan with Our Modification Services
When personalizing your house plan, our modification services offer many options. These changes can help create a home that suits your family’s vision. Here are some ways we can modify your dream house plan:
- Foundation Types: Whether you prefer a slab, crawl space, or basement foundation, we can adjust your plan to fit your needs.
- Garage Layout: Would you like a side entry for your garage instead of a front entry? Or perhaps you need an extra bay for storage or parking? We can make these changes to suit your preferences.
- Square Footage Adjustments: Small adjustments to the square footage, whether increasing or decreasing, can help tailor the plan to better fit your space needs.
- Floor Plan Layouts: We can revise the floor plan layout to better match your family’s lifestyle, making sure each room meets your needs.
- Rooflines and Elevations: Adjusting rooflines and elevations can significantly alter the aesthetic of your home, giving it a unique look and feel.
Our modification services at Architectural Designs are ideal for making minor to moderate changes to your house plan. Every modification request is carefully reviewed by our designers to see how it can be accommodated. We offer several options to help you personalize your home plan. If the requested modification cannot be made through our standard services, you have the option to purchase CAD files (if available) and collaborate with a local designer to make the modifications. If you’re looking for extensive changes or a fully customized design, our Custom House Plan service could be the perfect fit for you.
