Another House Build Thread!

Also, solid doors on the inside is better for sound, especially rest rooms and master bedroom.

Our bid is for stained real wood doors, I would think they are solid but I will have to check into it.

just my 2 cents but I have heard that real wood doors have possibility of warping and you can get the ones that look real and still stain or paint

Few somewhat inexpensive items during a build -

- Plenty of outlets; think about floor outlets in den, wall outlets for flat screen TV, outdoor outlets around soffit for Xmas lights, etc.

- Thinking of reverse osmosis at kitchen sink? Plumb to refrigerator for icemaker and water dispenser

- Back patio? Plumb hot water, gas, etc., makes future outdoor kitchen build that much easier.

- Have security system pre-wired

These are all things that can be done relatively easily during a build.

We have a back porch, I already planned for the gas but didnt think about the hot water back there just the carport. Thanks

Haven't looked into reverse osmosis what are costs and benefits?

About the spray foam... there is a company out there that will let you rent the machine and spray the house yourself. I'm thinking of going this route. It'll be a lot of work but so is subbing out your own build.

Building in city limits?

switched plugs in the eaves for Christmas lights. I also like the idea of an actual conduit in the wall where your TV will be to make it easier to pull wire from DVD/Sat etc to the TV if you mount it on the wall
