Nanostead Offers Consulting Services to Help You Get Started on Your Tiny Home Project

Are you having a hard time figuring out where to start building a home or have questions around a potential building project you would like to start? If you are, Nanostead can provide you with the information you will need to help you along the way. The most affordable way to build is to be educated and accomplish as much as you can by yourself.


We specialize in all stages of construction. If you want to be your own contractor or want to hire a contractor for a future build, we will give you the information you need to gain clarity around what you don’t understand.

  • A group of people are sitting in a room with a sign that says flat out

  • A small blue house with a white door and windows


Our consultation team can help with understanding what it takes to turn your dreams into reality. We will guide you through all phases of a project. 


We offer land assessments, infrastructure information, and home location along with what it takes to handle those frustrating tasks on your own.



During the build process, we can provide an understanding about job phases, cost and dealing with city or county officials to help with conversations you may have with them.


Zoning laws and issues may arise, so don’t get too far ahead of yourself by thinking everything should just be ok. There are always little things that come up and when we approach it emotionally, we are not following the same rules and laws that are implemented by state and governing authorities.


If you live out of state and are working with a contractor that you feel is not treating you well, we can help you understand why and how they are doing what they are doing. We can provide design management and consult you through your process.


For DIY, we will help you with all aspects of understanding code and how the flow and scope of a project functions. We can help with a seamless process so you do not get stuck and can’t find a way out of the situation.



Remember, you can do whatever you want with the right information! We are here to help!
