Don’t waste your money
Unfortunately, the plans are not exactly what I expected. I’ve built a lot of homes. I put a lot of commercial buildings and there’s just no way you can build all of these plans. They do give you the CAD however that I can get a design professional to fix everything that needs fixing absolutely the worst set of plans ever purchased, however cads I guess we’re the most important part of it. I guess I’m back to the architect for him to take those throw everything in the trash and at least keep the floor plan anyway $2000 $3000 don’t waste your money it cost you the same to get them reviewed.

Hello Steve, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that the plan set did not meet your expectations. We would like to clarify that the Lady Rose House Plan (CAD + PDF Single Build) was delivered as described at the time of purchase. This design has also previously been built and permitted. As with standard stock house plans, site-specific review and modifications may be required to meet local codes and property conditions. Our product information explains that the foundation may require review and adjustment by a local structural engineer based on factors such as soil, slope, wind, and seismic requirements. It also notes that HVAC and plumbing layouts are not included and are typically completed by the builder’s local subcontractors. On July 10, 2026, we contacted you and offered to review any specific concerns or defects with the plans. However, we did not receive details identifying a particular drawing error or technical issue. We respect your experience and feedback and regret that the plans did not meet your expectations. We remain available to review any specific technical concerns you may have and assist where possible. Best regards, The Archival Designs Team
