How to start building your own home

Friends, hello everyone!

Many will be interested in the topic - where to start building a private house or cottage.

Let's consider the situation when you have decided to build a house, and the neighbors already live nearby or they are also under construction.

In such a situation, the first thing to start with is to communicate with neighbors and understand their location and the number of storeys of the house, as well as the location of utility rooms and communications.

This can immediately change the picture of the concept of the location of your home and the location of additional buildings on your site. Let's consider a banal situation - you want to make a well for drinking water and determine its location near the neighbor's fence and here (when communicating with neighbors) it turns out that on his site but from the neighbors designed a latrine or septic tank to discharge sewage. What you get as a result - money thrown into the well.

The second option - you expect to install solar panels on the roof and choose the southern direction, and here it turns out that the neighbors are going to build three floors and the house completely or partially covers your roof from the sun. And solid fuel boilers (with not the most pleasant smells), laying of communications, gardening with high thuja or trees.

All this and much more can add a lot of problems in the future, so - do not forget this simple rule.
