I am going to be meeting with the super soon to start the process of building my house. I want to go into the meeting knowing what I am talking about and having a list of questions I should be asking.What questions should I ask the superintendent when having a house built?
a list is not going to help if you don't know what it means
but I'd be making sure the electrical panel had lots of room for future upgrades to your property like a pool, heat, ac etc, not 2 or 3 empty slots
make sure the water supply is adequate, here 3/4 supply from the street is code but what happens when your in the shower and someone flushes
tell him you want at least 1'; in, 3/4 through the house then reduced to 1/2 for the outlets (maybe $100-150 extra for 2 baths and kit.)
if you getting a large Whirlpool type tub make sure it's 3/4 to the tap
the tap sets are little more money but it won't take an hour to fill the tub
who's suppling the hot water tank
a client of mine has a new house and is stuck with a 60 gallon tank (or a buy out of 1600 dollars even though i could install a bigger one for half the money.)
and 3 1/2 baths. oh ya. his tub takes 57 minutes to fillWhat questions should I ask the superintendent when having a house built?
Start by knowing who you are talking to you. Generally the person who builds your home is a General Contractor.
