If ur a builder u r just another builder when do u get to be a carpenter it takes a good 5 to eight years to become a descent man behind the hammer I have my time behind me and it was no easy task to become a good Carpenter good thing I had a good teacher or it would’ve been a lot harder to become what I have become and to be able to use the skills that I have to be doing positive projects and not shitting the bed on them we’re more and find a lot of people getting ripped off and taking a vantage of due to the fact that they don’t know anything about renovations or construction make sure you call a couple contractors do you know how to make sure that your friends have used them or somebody can give you an example of what they’ve done otherwise you’re just setting yourself up for who knows what I’ll probably say 40% of the people that are builders are not there to do your job not there for you they’re there just to grab some cash and get out To protect yourself and not do it yourself unless you have experience contractor with you and it’s a lot harder work than you think for me become a routine so it should be easy but it’s still not effort equals results.Call to make sure that your brother has a permit for everything otherwise you’ll end up kicking yourself in the in the back side be diligent in dealing with the city as well if u don’t and u get reported by a neighbor or a jealous person or a passing by builder or inspector do it right away please Dont a just go ahead and do it yourself otherwise you’ll end up in trouble and they put a stop work permit on your site I know they charge not sure how much tho double for your next permit is what I remember or whatever way they can suck money out of you now in my situation my land is alr making it Almost untouchable and I just want to build a small home for myself and my family and I got to go through an impossible to get any kind of building permit situation to put a second building on our family property I mean I’m just a son of the landowner and I just want to build a small home for myself and my family and I got to go through hoops I mean it’s ridiculous it’s only 2 acresI mean not much you can do a few acres and then it’s also right on the edge of the fucking line so tiks me off quite a bit I got to send the plans into Vancouver to get approval and then back here and then send them into Cowichan as well I want to Build just a small 60 x 45 steel outdoor building and I will be able to house me and my vehicles my tools everything and another place behind it I mean I don’t understand why we can’t do that it’s all in the family anyways watch out and do things buy the book thanks so much for reading
