Some of the most common questions we get asked in my business have to do with building and the building process.  What should I build, do I need a permit to make "modest" alterations to my existing home or cottage and where do I go to get started. Tonight, I'll talk to Helen Vock, who's a certified building inspector and designer.  Helen is a wealth of knowledge when it comes to building codes, home and cottage design and we'll talk about why so many people "get it wrong", when they build, either from scratch or renovate an existing structure.  Feel free to call with any questions!
