A beautiful home 🏡

[happigreens]

Hopefully soon I will have a very small house built (>700sqft). But i worry i wont have it built to my values inspite of my limited budget, including using sustainable and energy efficient building materials and features.

This article is a bit reassuring of my options if I can afford them, at least a long way down the road.

50 Years of Marriage and Mindfulness With Nena and Robert Thurman

Ms. Thurman had a small inheritance, and the couple bought nine acres on a hill here in Woodstock for $7,000, cleared the land and put up a few tents and a tepee. When the VW Microbus in which they had traveled through India died, it became a planter. Then Dr. Thurman had a commission to translate a Tibetan sutra. He saved $3,000 to build a house, Ms. Thurman said, “which was enough to either hire people and dig a cellar, or buy lumber — we decided to buy the lumber.”

They began with a post-and-beam cabin, sketched out by Dr. Thurman and added to in fits and starts by his children, other family members and graduate students pressed into service over the years. Visiting lamas urged them on. “A triumph of American do-how over know-how,” Ganden Thurman, now the executive director of Tibet House, likes to say. “My father is maybe not a master carpenter. His tendency is to solve problems with a liberal application of force.”

“Why do it right when you can do it yourself?” he likes to tease his father.

Robert Thurman will reply: “Why do it yourself when you can pay someone else to screw it up for you?” - source NYT

HOME REMODELING AND RENOVATION

HOME REMODELING AND RENOVATION SERVICES STEP BY STEP PLANNING

Initial Consultation: The first step in any home remodeling or renovation project is an initial consultation with a professional contractor. During this meeting, you will discuss your goals, budget, and design ideas, and the contractor will assess the scope of the project and provide an estimate.

Design and Planning: Once you have agreed on the scope of the project, the next step is to create a detailed design plan and obtain necessary permits. This may involve working with an architect or designer to create drawings and specifications, and submitting these to the local building department for approval.

Preparing the Space: Before the renovation can begin, the contractor will prepare the space by removing any furniture, covering the floors and walls, and installing protective barriers. This will help ensure the safety of your home and the workers during the renovation process.

Demolition: In many cases, the first step in a home renovation project will be to remove any existing fixtures, walls, or other elements that are no longer needed or desired. This may involve demolition of part or all of the existing space, and the removal of debris.

Structural Work: After the demolition is complete, the next step is to make any structural changes or additions to the space. This may involve adding walls, installing new beams, or making other modifications to the existing structure.

Plumbing and Electrical: Once the structural work is complete, the next step is to install any new plumbing and electrical systems. This may involve running new pipes, installing electrical outlets and fixtures, and making any other necessary upgrades.

Framing and Drywall: After the plumbing and electrical work is done, the contractor will begin installing new walls, ceilings, and other components. This may involve installing insulation, hanging drywall, and preparing the surfaces for painting or wallpapering.

Finishing Work: After the walls and ceilings are complete, the next step is to install any final finishes, such as trim, molding, and cabinetry. This may also involve installing flooring, tiling, or other decorative elements.

Painting and Decorating: Once the finishing work is complete, the final step is to paint or decorate the space according to your specifications. This may involve selecting colors, wall coverings, and other decorative elements, and applying them to the walls and ceilings.

Clean-Up and Final Inspection: After the project is complete, the contractor will clean up the site and perform a final inspection to ensure that everything is in order. Once the inspection is complete and all necessary permits have been obtained, you will be able to move into your newly renovated space. More Idea and tips

FAQ FOR HOME REMODELING AND RENOVATION SERVICES:

How much does a home renovation cost? The cost of a home renovation can vary widely depending on the scope of the project, the materials used, and the location of the home.

How long does a home renovation take? The timeline for a home renovation can vary depending on the size and complexity of the project, but most projects take several weeks or months to complete.

Do I need to get a permit for a Home Remodeling? In many cases, a permit is required for a home renovation, especially if the project involves making structural changes or adding new features to the home. Your contractor should be able to advise you on the specific requirements for your area.

Can I live in my home during the Home Remodeling and Renovation? It depends on the extent of the renovation and the specific requirements of your contractor. Some projects may require you to temporarily relocate, while others may allow you to remain in your home during the renovation process. Your contractor will be able to provide you with more information on this.

Can I make changes to the design during the Home Remodeling and Renovation process? Yes, changes can be made to the design during the renovation process, but it is best to make any major changes before the project begins to minimize delays and additional costs. Your contractor should be able to advise you on the best time to make changes and the impact they may have on the timeline and budget.

Who is responsible for purchasing the materials and fixtures for the renovation? In most cases, the homeowner is responsible for purchasing the materials and fixtures for the renovation, although the contractor may be able to assist with this. Be sure to discuss this with your contractor and review the contract carefully to understand your responsibilities and obligations.

Can I do some of the work myself to save money? You may be able to do some of the work yourself to save money, but it is important to understand the scope and complexity of the project, and to ensure that you have the necessary skills and experience. Your contractor should be able to advise you on the work that can be done by a homeowner, and what should be left to the professionals.

▶ Beware of Remodeling Scams! Thorough explanation of how to recognize a contractor!

@aoisouken_official ←Other useful housing information is here!

Remodeling scams have been increasing rapidly in recent years. You can reduce your chances of becoming a victim by knowing how they operate.

In this issue, we will provide you with information on how to recognize a contractor!

Please use this information as a reference for your home building. Please use this information as a reference when building your home ✨.

What are the unknown dangers of remodeling scams? In recent years, the number of malicious remodeling scams has skyrocketed. Elderly households are particularly targeted, with unnecessary repairs and overcharging rampant. Selecting a reliable contractor is the first step to preventing damage.

Be careful! Typical M.O. of malicious contractors A common tactic is to make people feel uneasy under the guise of a sudden “free inspection” during a door-to-door sales visit. Also, actions that make you rush, such as “instant decision and discount,” are also suspicious signs. Try to make a calm decision.

Characteristics of Suspicious Remodeling Contractors Unlicensed contractors, those with ambiguous contracts, and those who offer excessive prices are dangerous. Also, be wary if the company's track record or location is unclear. Check the details of the contractor and contract details before signing a contract.

Wisdom to protect yourself from remodeling scams To select a reliable contractor, it is important to check word-of-mouth reviews. It is also effective to obtain estimates from multiple contractors and compare them. Thoroughly ask questions if anything is unclear.

What to do if you are a victim of a scam If you are a victim of fraud, immediately contact your local consumer affairs center. Also, keep the chapter contracts and invoices, and consider contacting the police or an attorney.

Conclusion The key to preventing remodeling scams is calm judgment and prior investigation. Avoid quick decisions and seek the opinion of a reassuring young third party. Identify a reliable contractor and protect your peace of mind.
