What Canyon Lake property owners are deciding
Electrical and plumbing decisions in Canyon Lake projects get improvised on site when no engineer designs them. Energy code documentation missing at submittal becomes a resubmittal nobody scheduled. What your building needs is determined by its use, its envelope, and Comal County Permitting's review requirements.
