Material exterior walls and interior walls (KfW 55 standard)

We got to know the Liaplan stone at a trade fair. We also had an idea of our floor plan and the special features of the plot. After the factory tour in Brandenburg, we asked which companies build with the product. We discussed the plans with 3 companies, a family business worked really well, a large one refused because it was too special, and the third made a defensive offer. Now we live in the house and did everything right. Find a contractor with whom the chemistry is right and let them build with their building material.

There remains question no. 2 - Is there a "winner" here
What about durability, in the sense of "leaving something behind for the grandchildren" (if there ever should be any)?
Or is the conscious omission of the answer to be understood as follows:
Durability, insulation, and soundproofing are so similar in both materials that the choice of the desired stone/brick should not decide the choice of provider, meaning you shouldn’t limit yourself when choosing the builder just because one prefers building with KS instead of brick or vice versa?

I did deliberately skip that question - right now, about 40 km diagonally across, various houses have sunk and been washed away before they could be inherited - so you don’t need to worry about eight hundred years with one stone versus nine hundred with the other without a flood disaster - half-timbered houses often stand for twelve hundred years.

You definitely cannot build with KS without external thermal insulation composite systems (ETICS) due to the energy saving ordinance, so at this point we’re back to the crucial question of how you want to handle the religion. Within the monolithic spectrum, I consider the world manageable. Only with the unfilled porous bricks do I least like to disagree with the "hate preachers" :)

I already take away not being so stubborn, especially when you actually have no clue yourself!

You can score unforgettable own goals if you pressure the builder to deal with an unfamiliar stone. Likewise, I would never try to convert a builder, neither away from ETICS nor towards it. The same applies to interior walls between masonry and lightweight construction.

Ceterum censeo, castle wall thicknesses are foolishness. Anyone who sees wall construction as a simple rule of three, assuming everything can be monolithic, and then wants ninety-three-centimeter concrete walls after the oracle pronouncement of their U-value calculator, in my opinion, has missed more than one shot.

We are also currently building in Brandenburg and that matches well. After selection and the first moderate price increase, we will come to about 2200 €/sqm, without incidental building costs and outdoor facilities, but Kfw55.

Thanks, then the first offers were not that far off after all. Off-topic here: I read in another thread that you had to demolish before building? Could you roughly tell me what you demolished and what you ended up with? Because we have to remove 64 sqm spread over 1.5 floors + partial basement..

We had our old house demolished. That was about 80 sqm plus a small basement of about 8 sqm. However, we gutted it ourselves because doors, windows, and roofing (sheet metal) are still used by my sons for sheds and animal shelters. For the demolition of the remaining masonry and backfilling, we paid about 20,000 euros. We could have done it cheaper (14,000), but we wanted the builder who is also building the house to do it. On the one hand, because it was about seamless sequencing for us (we have to be finished as quickly as possible because we now live only in a container on the property), on the other hand, because in case of any problems (cracks etc. in the masonry), no one can blame the other.

We are also currently building in Brandenburg and that seems about right. After selection and the first moderate price increase, we will come to around 2200 €/sqm, excluding incidental construction costs and outdoor facilities, but Kfw55.

But that will be a standard equipment, right? Either without major extras or standard construction at Town & Country or Heinz von Heiden? With a gas condensing boiler, without photovoltaics and controlled residential ventilation, as well as a fireplace and other frills, it would land around 2,200 - 2,300 €. If it should then be a city villa and not a bungalow, we would be at your price.

With a small local builder. Bungalow, heat pump, chimney for the fireplace, electric shutters, no controlled residential ventilation, no photovoltaics, no KNX. We will install the fireplace ourselves.
