Your Dream house Starts With My house Floor Plans
Through our collaboration with numerous designers and architects, we are able to offer you a selection of over 20,000 unique floor plans. Each plan is compliant with current residential construction codes. Every plan package is slightly different in the precise blueprints and architectural drawings included due to the wide diversity of plans we provide.
What’s Included in House Plans?
Plans vary in the specific sheets included, but in general you can expect to receive the following:
Front Elevation (Colored)
Want to know what your house would look like before you purchase? We’ve started off with random exterior colors. Feel free to save the Front Elevation Page to your computer and edit with Microsoft Paint to your liking. Contact us anytime if you need further detailed instructions.
Exterior Elevations
The purpose of exterior elevations is to show the building’s design from the outside. Everything from the fascade to the windows, doors, and outside finishes are included in this (such as siding, brick, etc.)
Architectural Floor Plans
Think of the house as if it were cut in half horizontally at a level that would include all of the doors and windows.
Structural Floor Plans
Plans come with original detail sheets, notes, and structural floor plans that had previously been reviewed, fixed design issues, sealed, and certified (you will need to have your local engineer update and seal the plans again).
Having a plan that has been previously engineered reduces or likely eliminates any design issues you might have encountered. It will also be very helpful for your local engineer and should reduce costs and engineering time.
Foundation Plans
The foundation plan shows the footings, foundation walls, and the placement of posts, beams, and load-bearing walls as needed. There are two foundation plans included: with and structural.
Drawn to scale. Depending on the plan, there will be a crawl, mono, or stem wall foundation.
Roof Plan
There are two roof plans included: with and structural.
Electrical Plans
Most plans do not have electrical sheets. This is usually completed by your contractor. However, we can create electrical pages ($100 per house plan). We can typically create and send these plans within 4 days of purchase. Included in the total cost, are 2 revisions at no charge.
NOT TYPICALLY INCLUDED WITH OUR house PLANS
Everything You Need to Know About House Plan Inclusions
When selecting your dream house design, it’s easy to focus on square footage, bedrooms, or the overall style. But what truly determines the value of a plan is what’s included. At My Home Floor Plans, our house plan inclusions are what set us apart from every other provider on the market. Whether you’re designing a luxury estate or browsing compact small house plans, understanding these details ensures you start your project with confidence.
In this comprehensive guide, we’ll walk through all aspects of house plan inclusions, why they matter, how they compare to competitors, and what to look for when evaluating architectural blueprints. From free foundation changes to full structural engineering, you’ll see exactly why our plans are engineered for success—and savings.
Why House Plan Inclusions Matter
Purchasing a house plan isn’t just about the layout—it’s about getting all the essential files and documents needed for your contractor, permitting authority, and builder. Without full plan documentation, costly delays and confusion can arise during construction. Our house plan inclusions are carefully curated to eliminate those risks.
Here’s why full plan packages are crucial:
- Permit approval: Structural and electrical plans are often required for city or county approval.
- Accurate budgeting: A complete set of drawings ensures better material and labor estimates.
- Customization: Plans that include CAD files offer ultimate flexibility for edits and adjustments.
What’s Included in Every Plan
When you purchase from My Home Floor Plans, every design comes packed with unmatched value. Each plan includes the following core files and services:
1. Full Construction Documents
These include all views and dimensions necessary to build the structure, including:
- Floor plans for each level, showing layout, walls, and dimensions
- Foyer, hall, kitchen, bath, and utility layouts
- Roof plans with pitch, ridges, and valleys
- Foundation plans (with your choice of slab, crawlspace, or basement)
2. Elevations
You’ll receive front, rear, and side elevations with details such as:
- Exterior finishes, siding, or masonry
- Roof pitches and overhangs
- Window and door specifications
3. Detailed Cross Sections
These drawings help builders understand the house’s structure, ceiling heights, and construction techniques.
4. Structural Engineering
Unlike many competitors, we include structural engineering in every plan. That means load calculations, beam sizing, header dimensions, and more are already done—no third-party hire necessary.
5. PDF & CAD File Delivery
You’ll receive an instant digital download in both PDF and CAD formats. CAD files allow your builder or engineer to make precise edits—something most plan providers don’t offer upfront.
6. Unlimited Build License
Every plan includes the right to build it as many times as you’d like. Perfect for developers or families who want flexibility without buying the plan multiple times.
7. Free Foundation Changes
Need to switch from slab to basement? No problem. Foundation adjustments are included at no extra charge.
