I am nearing the point of starting work on building our home. I will be acting as the contractor and will be in need of a mason to do a 28x28 walkout basement with 10' walls. I also need a crew with a lead man capable of reading and overseeing a set of plans to build a 28x28 single story home. Floorplan is pretty simple with minimal walls. I'm basically looking for someone to do the framing and outer shell and I will be handling electrical-HVAC/plumbing/interior/windows and roofing.

Home is to be built in Burke county/Smokey Creek area. If anyone wants to refer someone their confident in I'd appreciate it. If you yourself are interested please send me a PM or call me at 828-228-3548/828-202-6744
Home will not be log like in pic but stickbuilt with board and baton exterior. There will also be an awning coming from roof on both sides. These are just early drawings and final drawings are coming soon.

Thanks, Daniel Bragg

I like the look of that plan. As someone who lives in a small house, I highly recommend making the interior ceiling height as tall as possible. Also, make the porches as deep as you can, but keep the ceiling height up on them also.
 
I thought this was a "hitman for hire" ad. :lol:

Sorry for any framers named Mason.
 
Thanks, yeah we like it. It's going to have a vaulted ceiling above the living area and the master bedroom. We are going to have a covered 10' deck with the roof coming out over it. Then 8' side decks covered and high due to attaching up on roof.
 
Still looking for a mason and framer with enough experience to read blueprints and time to get er done in this area (Morganton) Give me a call if interested.

Stairs are between the door frame and bathroom wall. They are shown coming from Jesse's bed in the basement drawing and are see thru to see the washer and dryer...
I'll ad more updated final drawings in a bit.
 
We are moving along with the house build and hope to start the footers in another week or two. I decided to remove stumps while the dozer was there. Pics of now and as it progresses soon. :)

Looking good. I'm guessing you found your framers and masons?

If we ever end up back near Marion Im'a get @ramjo to build me something. Still working on a plan to get him to Charleston if we are able find land that we can afford to build more than a treehouse on :rolleyes:

How high are you going with basement walls? What type of floor system you using? Stairs eat up a good chunk of a space the higher you go. Make sure you will have enough headroom to meet code requirements .

I think for about 9' of height you will have about 13' of run on a set of stairs, and it will take 10' of run to get close to required headroom. Also you'll need at least 36" between the bottom of stairs and wall as well.

Yep, found a local contractor to lend me his crew. Basement walls are 10 foot. Thanks for the tips.
