Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers for the most common questions about custom tiny home plans
After each time we delivery a draft of the plans, you'll have an opportunity to make revisions. We group all revisions into two Core Revisions which helps us provide custom plans at a very competitive rate while also giving you a chance to work through any ideas and adjustments.
If you still need some small revisions after the two Core Revisions they will be billed at a $75/hour billing rate or you can add a third Core Revision for $500.
You are only allowed to build one house with one set of custom plans. A agreement signed between both parties will indicate these terms. If you'd like to build multiple tiny homes with these designs, reach out and we'll discuss the possibility of a Commercial License with you!
THOW is an abbreviation for Tiny House on Wheels.
Generally, you need to have an idea of what style of tiny home you want and what your intended use is. If you plan to travel a lot, we'd recommend a 5th wheel or Gooseneck. If you want a standard tiny home that generally looks more homey from the outside, a stand bumber pull would be best. If you're wanting extra wide, it'll require a permit to travel down the road, but these are geneally pretty easy to get.
TinyHouse.com LLC will retain ownership of the plans. You will have the rights to build a single tiny home based on the plans that shall solely be for personal use. If you would like to build more than one tiny home based on the plans, or use it for commercial use, reach out and we can discuss the feasibility of a Commercial License!
Have you already done the calculation of reducing the published tow rating by 20%? Using that rule, the alleged safe towing capacity margin for a tiny house is the vehicle’s tow capacity x 0.8. There are a lot of resources out there that address this topic – here is one example: http://fifthwheelst.com/unsafe-eighty-percent-towing-rule.html

There is a no-return policy on all our plans but we are more than happy to help you with your questions ahead of time. We want you to be truly happy with your decision and will help get you there. You may read our full Terms and Conditions HERE.
In order to use any plans purchased through us, you agree to retain and consult with a local engineer and/or architect to ensure that all structural elements meet the local codes and requirements and to confirm that local conditions are addressed. You also must agree to the Terms and conditions listed on our website. https://www.tinyhouseplans.com/legal/terms-and-conditions
No, the plans are printed in black and white. There is no option for colored printing available right now but we'll definitely consider it!
Aside from the digital version of the plans, we can provide you with the printed version of the plans as well for an additional fee. The print shop we are working with is able to print a wide range of sizes. It's totally up to you. Blueprint sizes are typically 18” x 24” and 24” x 36”, but you can also find them in 30” x 42” and 36” x “48” sizes.
Our pricing is specified on this page, or reach out for more questions!
No, the custom plans do not come with an engineer’s stamp. The reason is that engineering requirements vary so much from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. We cannot anticipate what the needs will be for each plan sale we make. As such, if your building department requires a stamped set of plans, the next step would be to speak with an engineer.

We will give you a digital copy of the plans. However, we can provide a printed version starting at $60!
Because regulations vary not only state to state but also county to county and city to city, we truly have no way of saying what your local building department will say. It’s up to you to do your due diligence if you are following a legal pathway. That said, having a set of professional plans will certainly benefit you if you go through an application process.
Once you've made the purchase, we will send you through email our Custom Design Agreement and a Design Intake Form so we can kick off your design!
Our communication channels include email, video call, and phone call. Take note that video calls and phone calls need to be scheduled in advance!
Typically, we can deliver a finished set of custom plans within 30 days. However, depending on your exact requirements and how efficient you are with providing specific feedback, it can take up to 60 days.
