ModelTown's take

Every model has a published price, but the price doesn't say what's included

A Fraser Valley, BC builder of small modular homes, 200 to 900 sq ft, that ships to western Canada and the US.

  • Published prices: every standard model has a price on Hewing Haus's site, shown in Canadian dollars with a US dollar option. The site doesn't say what the price includes.
  • Certification: Hewing Haus says all its homes are CSA A277 certified, a Canadian standard for factory-built homes. Ask what approval your US county needs.
  • One team: it says it can handle permits, design, building, site prep and installation.
  • Timeline: the build takes 4 to 8 weeks. The full project, with permits and site prep, is often estimated at up to 6 months.
  • Site needs: the home is set by crane, so your lot needs crane access.

Worth exploring if

  • You want a small backyard home or ADU, 200 to 800 sq ft, and want to see a price before you call.
  • You're in western Canada or the US, where Hewing Haus says freight and installation cost the least.
  • Your lot has room for a crane to set the home.

Clarify before committing

  • What the price includes. The site lists a price for each model but doesn't say whether delivery, the crane, the foundation or hookups are part of it.
  • Whether your county accepts a CSA A277 home. It's a Canadian standard, and US approval rules vary by state and county.
  • Financing. Hewing Haus says it doesn't offer financing and refers buyers to lenders in Canada. US buyers should line up their own.

Beyond the listing

A Canadian builder selling into the US

Payments follow the build
