Building on Challenging Sites

BUILDING HOMES ON DIFFICULT SITES IS A COMMON CHALLENGE WHEN BUILDING IN THE HILL COUNTRY.

Building a house in the Hill country has its own, very unique challenges: steep sites and drainage are just the beginning of it. Janus is a specialist in building on difficult sites. Our belief is that challenging sites can create the most unique homes.

WHY IS JANUS AN EXPERT IN BUILDING ON DIFFICULT SITES?

1.   Experience: We’ve built many homes on challenging sites and we understand all the variables that need to be considered. Excavation, creating positive drainage, water proofing, French drains, grading, access, slope ratios.

2.   Design expertise: Whether you’ve already had your house plans drawn up, or would like us to help you with the design. Janus will be able to maximize the use of your land to give you a truly custom home that takes advantage of all the features your lot has to offer.

3.   Great contractors: When you’re building on difficult sites, you need experienced contractors that know how to deal with challenging situations. Many builders don’t know how to excavate really steep sites, or aren’t familiar with managing surface water. Janus does this challenging work day in and day out.

4.   Fixed price contracts: despite the challenging nature of this kind of work, you’ll still enjoy the peace-of-mind of a fixed price contract.

5.   Tact and diplomacy: Difficult sites often come with neighbors very close by, and we’re used to dealing with that. You can be assured that we will treat your neighbors with great tact and diplomacy at all times.

6.   Approvals: Dealing with neighbors isn’t the only worry – there’s also Owners Associations and city developments services. We deal with all the building approvals and permitting on your behalf. This will save you a lot of time and stress, as the requirements for a difficult sites can be extensive and requires specialist knowledge. Janus will take care of all of that for you.
