Contractors

Jim is acting as our general contractor, and this makes perfect sense because A: He subs out jobs to contractors every single day for his company Monroe Sealers so he is very comfortable being in charge and orchestrating multiple subs, B: Jim personally knows nearly every major sub we are hiring, and C: We are saving a bazillion dollars in construction costs. The place we blew our original budget was in lumber costs (here's a link with more info), but thankfully Newfane Lumber offers a great product, great service and a competitive price.

So far we have had 2 subs on the site: A Superior Concrete did our foundation, and Parlier Developments is doing the framing. As of today we are highly pleased with both!
