there are a few providers out there. I am just saying that I am a licensed builder and if anyone got any questions regarding building a house, they are free to ask me questions and I will try my best to answer them.

passing inspection only means that the work meets the building code and its safe. The house could have framing thats not leveled, concrete floor thats wavy, painting thats bad and so on.

This is a joke right? I really dont see any problems with NHW, we just signed up with whoever at the time.

btw, are you covered by travellers and why is travellers better in your eyes?

In Richmond there is a ratio that it goes by (forgot the exact ratio). But say for example if your house is 3000sq/ft, you are allowed to have your garage at 500sq/ft that will not count and anything over that the sq/ft will count towards your house.
