Plan the Perfect Outdoor Fireplace

For example, all outdoor fireplaces are exposed to the external environment. So that may affect your choice of raw materials. Also, since it's an outdoor fireplace, you can worry less about smoke.

Building Your Dream Home

For most of my adult life I had thought about someday building my Dream Home. Several years ago I finally got the chance. I had purchased a lake front lot with a small cottage on it. My initial intention was to use the property 'as is', and someday raze the old cottage and build a new home in its place. After a couple of weekends in the musty old camp I came to the conclusion that I needed to speed up my timetable. Part of the dream in building my own home was to act as the General Contractor ...

Should You Contract Your Remodeling Job Yourself?

My immediate answer would be, probably not. The long answer would be something like this: It depends on a number of factors. Most people who contract the job themselves are trying to save the amount of money the contractor would have grossed on the project. I guarantee you, they will not have a joyous time doing it. No different than trying to sell your house without a real estate agent. I can't speak for the Realtors but I can speak for the contractors. Contractors gross do not ...

Simple Layout and Framing of Walls

Simple Layout And Framing Of Walls Framing walls is known in construction as rough carpentry. This has always seemed to me as a contradiction of terms. The framing holds the skin (drywall, sheathing, siding) and has the buildings life lines running through it (plumbing, electric, heating, A/C, telephone, and cable). Like the skeleton is to a body, as are framed walls to a house. When laying out walls, care must be taken as to where they are placed. Finishes that will be applied must be ...
