October 2011 - Moving Forward


October 2011

Key to moving forward with a design was getting a troublesome hydro line moved.  There was a line that went from a transformer pole diagonally across our house to our neighbours house.  A quick phone call and hydro was able to come out and re-route within a week or two at no cost to anyone.  It was during this process that I found out about the hydro clearances that needed to be considered in our design.  Unfortunately our house couldn’t have a full 2nd storey at the back, which changed everything!

I also went into town and got acquainted with the building inspector, Ken Middleton.  He’s been very helpful all along the way giving advice, telling us what was required for permits, etc.  Ken and all the down-to-earth tradespeople I’ve dealt with so far have given me a lot of faith in the process.
