What requirements did you look for when choosing the contractor? It would be nice to know of a contractor in the lower mainland that is familiar with this type of construction.

The final cost analysis proved to be $180/sqft. The quality of finish and environmental efficiency of the mechanical systems are more in keeping with custom designed houses costing $250/sqft. I can thereby conclude that I was able to accomplish zigloo domestique at a savings $70/sqft.
