Place a tiny home

​Imagine finding the perfect tiny home and placing it on your own forested site!

 

There are several tiny home manufacturers in BC and the Lower Mainland, and they all have slightly different styles to choose from. Below are links to companies in BC that specialize in manufacturing tiny homes. You can:

• choose a pre-designed layout or have your tiny home custom built to suit you

• find several sizes available, ranging from 200 to 500 square feet

• move in once your tiny home is delivered and connected to power, water, and septic.

 

There are lots of options for every budget. Whether you choose a pre-built or custom tiny home, SCH's Building Committee can guide you along the way.

 

Here is a simplified breakdown of the steps to placing a tiny home (as set out in the Building Guidelines). Again, the Building Committee can help guide you.

​

1.  Get a site specific geotechnical report.

• This will determine where the tiny home, services, and septic can be placed.

• SCH can recommend people we’ve used.

 

2.  Clear your site and create a pad for placement of tiny home and services.

• You can place an RV or motor home on your site while this work is ongoing. 
  *Note: appropriate methods for waste water disposal must be approved by the Building Committee before an RV is placed onsite.

 

3.  Obtain permits for services and provide to SCH.

• Permits for services are required to ensure health and safety standards, including power, water, and a septic system (a septic permit is issued by Fraser Health).

 

4.  Install electrical supply, water and septic system.

 

5.  Advise the Building Committee when placement of tiny home and services are complete and ready for inspection.
