Your architectural plans should do much more than show the layout of your home. If decisions around materials, waterproofing, insulation, mechanical systems, or electrical placement are still being made during construction, you’re opening the door to mistakes, delays, and expensive change orders. In this episode, I explain what should actually be documented before construction starts and how to tell whether your plans have enough detail to confidently build from.
