The Building Manual


 

 

has been written for those of you with little to no experience in construction. It is designed for you when contracting the project yourself, for general contractors and for subcontractors that are involved.

Just go to the construction phase that you want to learn about- for example: Earthwork- we talk to you in essay, explaining  construction procedures, options for building materials as well as detail drawings showing such things as, installing foundation drains and addressing the issue of Radon.

GC's and subcontractors not familiar with our buildings can virtually complete your home without additional guidance; explanations are simple and to the point, with detail drawings when necessary.

You'll also get tips and tricks regarding things we've learned in our building experiences. For example; installing vinyl siding but using wood trim on corner boards, eves and rakes - substantially upgrades the appearance from the typical installation, without breaking the bank!

This manual was developed to help you through the many decisions with which you will be faced, as well as helping to eliminate any misunderstandings or unplanned for items that normally account for cost overruns!
