Frequently asked questions
We receive a lot of questions about our tiny homes & park models. Find answers below to the most commonly-asked questions.
-
Prices do not include site prep, shipping, setup and taxes. Contact us for Site Prep and Setup services.
-
No, we don’t. We take great pride in the plans and models we create, and would like each model to be built with the consistent quality and craftsmanship we guarantee.
-
To a certain extent, yes. Depending on the desired modifications, fees may apply and the estimate completion day may be affected.
-
Our tiny homes and park models can be used as personal vacation homes and/or as rental properties. If local jurisdiction allows they can also be used as a permanent dwelling. Our tiny homes can also be used as an ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit).
-
No, we must complete each model in its entirety. Labor & Industries will not provide an insignia sticker, which is needed to move the unit, until the model passes final inspection.
-
A manufactured home (factory-built residential unit) is built to the CSA Z240 MH Series standard and certified under CSA A277, Canada's factory certification procedure. A park model is a Recreational Park Trailer (RPT) built to CSA Z241 standards.
-
We build manufactured homes to two different Canadian standards. Our Park Models are built according to CSA Z241 (Recreational Park Trailer) standards. Inspections are completed by CSA, and after passing final inspection, we receive a CSA certification label which is applied to the home in the factory. Our manufactured homes are built according to the CSA Z240 MH Series and certified under CSA A277, Canada's factory certification procedure — and also comply with the National Building Code of Canada, the Canadian Electrical Code, and the National Plumbing Code. Our manufactured homes are also inspected by CSA and receive a CSA A277 certification label once they pass final inspection.
-
Over 50 tiny homes in the past ten years.
-
Some of the units are built on a custom chassis trailer and some are built on steel frames, depending on your model.
-
Each site will have its own constraints due to the bearing capacity of the soil, and in some instances the frost line will also play a factor. We recommend that you contact a local Geotech and/or structural engineer for foundation requirements.
-
Dimensions can be found under each model we offer.
-
Typically they are made to move just once to a permanent location. They can be moved again, but they are not built to be a travel trailer due to their large size.
-
It takes one month for the custom chassis or steel frame to be built and then approximately four months for the tiny home to be built, based on the extent of the customization. We will also need to take into consideration the work already under contract to figure out when we can fit your build into our build queue.
-
Yes. If you are a community operator, please contact us to discuss park model customization for your community. This is how we got our start building tiny homes—check out Wildwood Lakefront Cottages, our first resort partnership: wildwoodlakefrontcottages.com.
-
Our park models come with a vehicle certificate of origin. We provide this certification along with other documents the owner needs to submit to their local Auditor’s Office in order to receive their title. For tiny homes they are built to the standard residential building code that site-built homes also follow so they are treated like a standard house.
-
Warranties are available upon request. The cost depends on the proximity to Chilliwack, BC which is where we build our tiny homes.
