Why Pre-Reviewed Plans Are a Game-Changer

Pre-Reviewed ADU plans are blueprints that have already been reviewed by the District of Squamish. These plans comply with local zoning regulations and building codes, eliminating the usual red tape that can delays and complicates custom builds.

This means you can skip months of permitting headaches and get straight to what matters, building your new home , rental unit or home office. Plus, since these plans are reusable, they come at a discounted price, making them an unbeatable value.

With a Pre-Reviewed Plan, you get the best of both worlds:

• Premium design from top-tier architects at a fraction of the cost.
• A streamlined construction process that saves you time and money.
• Customizable finishes to ensure your ADU reflects your personal vision and needs.

The Squamish ADU Design Competition

To ensure only the best plans are available, Squamish hosted a design competition, inviting renowned architects to submit their most innovative, practical, and sustainable ADU concepts. The result? A curated selection of award-winning ADUs designed for Squamish homeowners, blending functionality, energy efficiency, and aesthetic appeal.

Each plan is thoughtfully designed to maximize space, light, and livability while incorporating high-performance materials and eco-friendly construction methods. These aren’t just generic blueprints, they are intelligent, purpose-driven designs that meet the evolving needs of today’s homeowners.

At NewlinesADU, we proudly feature these competition-winning plans, offering a selection that accommodates different lot sizes, architectural styles, and budget levels.

More Than Just a Plan—A Faster, Smarter Way to Build

One of the biggest advantages of Pre-Reviewed Plans isn’t just the price savings—it’s how much smoother your build will be. Since the plans have already been used successfully, builders are familiar with them, meaning:

• Construction is faster and more efficient.
• Fewer surprises, delays, and cost overruns.
• Streamlined workflow for everyone involved—from architects to contractors.

Better yet, these plans are also customizable to suit your preferences. Whether you want high-end finishes, minimalist simplicity, or energy-efficient enhancements, we can tailor your ADU to your style and budget while still benefiting from the pre-reviewed structure.
