Yeah, i like it too. All the front gable pitches match on the shop at the house at 8/12. The shop was actually 9/12 and i noticed it while the plans were in engineering, so i had to have it updated... that's why they're dotted lines in that photo.Oooh your garage is on the side, my wife really wanted a side garage but our property just wasn't wide enough. Nice house!
Do you folks up there do basements? If that thing is on a basement it's huge!We do basements here so, essentially, you end up with a 3-story

All the drainage and asphalt coating around the outside of the basement does is slow down the water for a while. Once a crack forms in the floor or outside wall, water will be there after a rain event.
I'm glad for ya'll. It will be great.
Awfully familiar surroundings there sir. That's what I remember my uncle's property looking like up in Kayak Point when they broke ground. is that a ridge line I see in the background leading to a water view?
I just don't want to wind up missing a digit or limb. I can sometimes get in a hurry to get results.
Thanks! We'll be pouring the concrete for the shop, and then actually building it in the spring. But we wanted to get the foundation and slab in when the house goes in for a couple reasons... First, concrete trucks tear the crap out of everything, so we wanted to do all the concrete at once. Same for excavation obviously...Second, I wanted to get it permitted and started, so there's no risk of the county building department changing the regs and crushing our dreams lol. Now that it's permitted and once it's started, I will have a long time to finish it in its grandfathered state.So it will be a work in progress... But the foundation is laid, literally and figuratively! :)Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
As for me and my house...
