Children's Homes & Group Homes

Children's Homes, Adult Day Cares, and other types of Group Homes are all in the same regulatory category as Home Pluses, known as Residential Care Homes.

 

In the last three years I have helped over 15 clients open more than 20 homes in the Wichita area, becoming the most knowledgeable architect in the state on all the rules and regulations regarding the construction of the home itself. We may have not met, but I "know" you. I know that you have a desire to own your own successful business. I know that you have dedicated years of your life learning your craft and helping others. I know you have saved and saved to start this exciting new business. And I know what you don't; I know what size windows and doors your home needs. I know how many residents you can care for and how many bathrooms they need. I know if you need a $4,000 smoke alarm system or if you need a $20,000 sprinkler system. I know what you can save money on and what you should budget for. I know how you can expand your business into an un-used garage to maximize your revenue. And I know when you could use a hug and a word of encouragement.

 

All architects learn on the job about how to cobble together a code footprint. Every project is different and there are no specific rules or examples to follow, thus for most architects it's a trial and error process to meet the code reviewers expectations. However, with my extensive experience, I know EXACTLY what the code reviewers are looking for, including all the little "secret" details specific to your project.

 

There are many reasons why working with Kansas Code Plans saves you time and money that other architects simply can't match. First, the state takes at least 30 days to review your code plan, if your architect doesn't have all the right information (and they won't), the state will fail the plan, and then they'll have to resubmit a corrected plan, which takes ANOTHER 30 days. That's another month that your business isn't open, isn't making revenue, and that you are paying a mortgage and bills for. The second way I save you money, is that with just a few simple questions I know exactly how much it'll cost to do your code plan. I have drawn so many residential board and care homes that I can predict within minutes how much work it will take for me to meet your expectations. Other architects will ask you lots of questions, then go back to their desk, guess at some numbers, and then email you a figure the next day. Don't over pay for what THEY don't know. The third way I save you money is with my low prices; since I have a day job for the state, I am not relying on your business for my main source of income. When the math adds up, you simply can't afford to hire that big firm or the draftsman who designed your moms neighbors house.
