    Thank you

    We purchased some plans from BeeBuilt over a year ago. When we printed them out the dimensions were illegible. When I called the company (over a year ago) my voicemails were not returned. Over a year later the New Owners (as I understand it) contacted me and sent new drawings that were legible! At no charge. They didn’t have to do that, but they did, and that says a lot! And, I appreciate that. I hope they are successful with their new business. They are certainly off to the right start!

    In general the plans were detailed enough to follow except for the floor/bottom plans - we still can't figure them out...how do I get more information?

    Hi Linda! This issue with the bottom boards was recently brought to my attention so we have made a clear version which I will email to you!
