bull dozed down, so there is a need to meet the
standards of very stringent building codes with
seismic upgrades for earthquakes, and energy
upgrades, and requiring what is known in the
industry as a building “envelope”, also known
as watertight and airtight enclosure.
“It’s ridiculously complicated for home own-
ers to understand. We can have all of the pro-
fessional staff, about 15 staff in our head office
in 40-50 different sub-trades to get through
all the documentation, building codes, inspec-
tions. Every municipality and region is differ-
ent, even though there are blanket-building
codes in Canada and B.C. It’s a huge challenge,”
said Tabuchi.
One municipality can be totally different
from another, he noted. A contractor or com-
pany will not pass inspection if the work is not
done exactly right according to code.
“You need to do it efficiently, as well as have
the brain power to get it exact,” he stressed.
We have to prove to clients that they chose the
right company. It’s all apart of the process.”
Judging by the company’s numerous verifi-
able testimonials and referrals, Tamlin Homes
is certainly one of the best service oriented
companies in the country. “We’re totally cus-
tomer-focused with everything we do, and
that’s always about always making lasting qual-
ity impression.”
