Tips for Building in Dallas
Here are a few things to keep in mind when starting your prefab project in Dallas:
- Plan for Permits: Dallas has specific regulations for ADUs and backyard builds. We can help walk you through what’s required for your address.
- Think About Utilities: Will your structure need water, electric, or sewer tie-ins? If so, turnkey might be your best option.
- Know Your Access Points: Make sure your lot can accommodate delivery and installation access for the building.
- Use Your Climate: Consider roof overhangs, window placement, and shading to take advantage of Dallas’s sun and heat.
- Pick Your Finish Level: Do you want it move-in ready? Or would you prefer to finish out the interior yourself? We offer both.
