Let’s Talk Construction

So my brother is getting ready to build a new home. There has been months of discussion. We have looked at more houses than I ever thought possible and there are things that he loves, things that he doesn’t, and well I could go on for a while. Everyday he has something new that he calls and tells me about or a link I need to look at. All of these discussion sent me on a quest for more information about the whole construction process and what sort of things he could have done. Hopefully with my notes it will make things easier for him. Of course I really mean easier for me. 

I should clarify it is my older brother and not younger one. I know that I don’t talk about him as much as I do the younger one. This particular brother loves farming and agriculture among other things. He is really Farmer Ted let me tell you. He currently owns chickens and even once had a buffalo. I have no idea how we are from the same parents. One of the things that he wants is a place for his livestock. I found that you can have a structure that is made of fabric like those as https://calhounsuperstructure.com/. 

It doesn’t look like it is completely made of fabric but I think it will be something my brother would like. I would have one built if it was up to me, they look amazing. Of course I have no idea what in the world I would use one for but I still think I need one. Actually I think that he needs one so that I can see what it looks in person. Maybe I need to find someone who has one and ask if I can come over and check it out. 

Then I went out and saw his land an realized that he would most likely need some sort of bridge at lest temporary. Something similar to what Northern Mat & Bridge does. There isn’t so much a lot of water as a lot of muddy, boggy kind of areas that may need the bridge for equipment to pass over. Of course there is plenty of grassy land area too. 

I’m going to be honest and tell you that is all I looked up on construction because it ain’t my thing and I have no idea why he asked me to. I’m more the let’s look at window treatments or I’ll design your library (so I can come over and play) kind of gal. 

I did read that it typically takes three to four month to build a house. However it can take up to six months depending on the design and other factors. I can just imagine how long it will take this house to be finished. My brother is so picky that he is going to drive these people crazy. He is going to change his mind so many different times they are going to be ready to pull their hair out.
