There is a 32' open span that couldn't be done with ceiling joist/rafters. -- JerryD(upstateNY) So much for old vs. new construction. Could a free rafter roof be as solid? Sure, I have no doubt. Lot's more expensive lumber. The big bonus as far as I'm concerned... |

There is no one level of quality and there is no other way of telling the contractor what you consider to be quality and no other way of having an objective bench mark to judge the work in place except an agreement in drawings and specification. You could buy and study the locally acce... |

Are there books on what to look for or, I don't know, places to look that will indicate overall quality of construction for the layman? These builders built a home for some friends of ours and come recommended by them. They are... |

Took about an hour. Then I took a can of wasp spray and sprayed it into the running shop vac, waited for a few minutes, and opened it and dumped all 2 pounds of bugs out in the trash, and caulked the whole shut. No more problem. Of course, it wo... |

No problem, you grounded one end with a 4' rod into the earth. Let the lightning come, it has a place to go. Unless, the chain sticks up above your house, it is not any more likly to attract lightning than anything else in the area. |
