Want to go ahead with a project with Versant but wondering if you're allowed to build ?
Compared to our southern neighbors, the ''tiny home'' concept is still very new. The zoning by-laws in force in the municipalities generally determine the minimum size of a house per sector, which often requires a derogatory administrative procedure.
However, the regulations are set to change, thanks to the pioneer municipalities.
If you live in Quebec, refer to the interactive map below before starting your project!
First, if you want to build a tiny house on foundations, it is important to determine the area in which you want to settle. We invite you to consult the tab "Where are tiny homes allowed?" for more information.
Once the sector has been chosen, all that remains is to find a land. Versant's team does have access to several reliable contacts in this field to ensure that you get complete support during your research.
After selecting your land, it will be time to contact us to schedule a first meeting. It is during this consultation that we will discuss with you very precisely about all your needs, as well as your budget.
Once this meeting is over, we will begin the custom design of your tiny house or the modification of the plan that you have selected from one of our collections, depending on what best suits your expectations.
Several names are given to small dwellings. Here are some useful definitions:
Micro-house or micro-cottage : less than 500 square feet of living area.
Tiny house or mini-cottage : between 500 and 1,000 square feet of maximum living area.
It can vary greatly depending on your land, the area and the quality of your construction. Several factors such as an artesian well, a septic field, the electrical installation, the type of insulation and many others can have a significant impact on the cost of your construction.
If you have a project in mind please contact us at info@versanteco.ca! In the meantime, you can find some approximate costs under the description of our different models.
For construction on foundations, the best time to contact us is when you have acquired your land. This then allows us to conceptualize a model that can make the most of the elements that nature offers us on your property.
However, if you want to build a model on wheels, we invite you to contact us at the very beginning of the project!
Indeed, it is a service that we offer! The models are created to meet the current needs of a specific type of person, but we are fully aware that yours may differ. It is for this reason that we will be happy to adapt an existing plan to your lifestyle and needs!
With a living area up to a 1,000 sq. ft., a tiny house can very well accommodate a family of four comfortably. It will be our pleasure to look at the different options with you and make sure to bring your future space to its full potential and create a home in which it will be good to live.
