This is a reference guide that will enable even the layperson to tackle a project in a logical and organised manner, and to approach it with confidence. Sound advice is given on making an offer to purchase, buying land as an investment, or buying to build. This guide also shows you how to calculate the costs involved, and how to raise the finances. A discussion on building plans includes the type and style of building, the finishes, add-on options, and quantifying and costing. The bulk of the guide includes all you need to know to build your own home. This covers methods and materials, the construction schedule, tools and plant hire, siteworks and excavations, foundations, damp proofing, wall structures, roofing, ceilings, plumbing, drainage and sanitation.
