A nice house.


The last house that I worked on before starting my own business. I was involved in all of the framing, other than having help lifting walls and setting trusses I did most of it by myself. Installed all of the siding, soffit and windows. Installed all of the interior doors, baseboard and trimmed out all of the windows. Helped hang all of the cabinets and installed all of the vanities. Worked really close with this home owner on his house which is what gave me the confidence to want to start my own business.
I didn't start my own business to get rich, I started my own business because I love building houses and I wanted control over what I love! The same goes for building decks, room additions, finishing basements etc.

  1. How many bathrooms that house got?

  2. 3 full bathrooms with one half bathroom the basement is also set up for a bathroom if it would get finished.

    It was pretty sweet the way the great room was designed, instead of making the ceiling the full two stories they went with 12' walls and added a bonus room above. So they had a upstairs with another small set of stairs to lead to the bonus room above the great room.

    It was a smart way of keeping the great room opened up and still save a little on heating and cooling while adding living space.
