You Can Build Your Own Home
Most general contractors are not master builders. They are managers. For decades, home construction has become more and more specialized. There are 20-40 trade contractors that may be working on a single building project. Managing construction doesn't take a master carpenter, but a person that can schedule, delegate and direct traffic on the jobsite. We help develop those skills by providing information derived from years of construction experience.
We discuss not only construction management but also site selection, construction methods, energy efficiency and selecting building materials. Part of building your own home is knowing quality, affordable materials to use, from start to finish. This may include selecting energy efficient products such as Low-E windows or choosing building materials that contribute to sustainability. Much of the time, however, quality and value are the most important factors when selecting products and materials.
In addition, OwnerBuilderOnline.com is becoming a one stop shop for contractors and builders to find information, make contacts, and get noticed. We have loads of informational pages covering topics ranging from the bid process through building inspections, plus our free contractor's directory. Free Contractor's Directory
We are developing Contractor Services pages. Licensed contractors can get free internet exposure for their business by listing with www.ownerbuilderonline.com.
