Solid wood house / partial self-labor, wall structure / differences

Hello KAHO 647, actually you have already provided my counterargument yourself. Alleged expert!!! For me, an expert or specialist company is an architecture or engineering office located in the region. Chamber membership and performance certificates in the region. If you build a prefabricated house, then you go to a company organized within the prefabricated house association monitored for quality. If you build a timber frame house, you go to a craft business that is organized in the chamber and has certification from GHAD, DHV, etc. It becomes a bit more difficult with wet construction since, to my knowledge, there is no certification like with the wooden ones. But even there, there are solutions. Companies located in the region that have been on the market for a longer time are also a good indicator of quality work. All this does not protect 100% against botched work, but the probability is significantly minimized. Even if there is botched work, these companies will do everything possible to eliminate it. They have a reputation to lose. I do not watch these shows regularly, but so far no company has been among them that meets the above criteria. But this is not the problem here either, since the topic starter is bound to certain key points due to the way he has informed himself. If he excludes Brettsperrholz and also HRB because of the glue issue (usually OSB is involved), cannot afford the favored Rombach and Holz100 system, and in his desperation resorts to possible alternatives (log house and even HRB with block planks nailed on the inside, whatever sense that makes), and then still cannot really recognize that block planks generally also have to be glued and the entire log house construction must also be sealed and braced. Who can untangle this confusion except the expert mentioned above????? The forum certainly cannot manage that, or can it????? Regards, Friedrich.

You are self-employed and should know how important - even in your seller's market - expert advice is

That is what you wanted to say? So here again the previous sentence:

A more than strange question for a self-employed person who depends on the pots/wallets of consumers Especially since the question itself implies that the desire to build comes before all reasonableness.

Am I crazy? Anyway, now we are clearer. Surely you are right about house construction, but that is no general rule. For my articles, about 99% of customers do not want advice (low involvement) - luckily.

Pots of consumers = dependent on customer behavior - unbearable internet half-knowledge that everything can also be done cheaper (of course with constant quality)

Probably a topic that drives developers and building professionals crazy. *lol*

I always like to know who I am dealing with, how I have to assess statements; provided the given profile is not very informative. Therefore, I know what you are self-employed in; in times of Aunt Google & co. not that difficult.

I can also gladly do a bit of advertising here, then everyone will know at once and won’t wonder where you are the only one who knows that?

Hello,

Probably a topic that drives property developers and construction professionals crazy. *lol*

If you were confronted with it daily, you would probably also find it not very funny. The further consequence of this is often posts in forums like this one, which are based on one's own stubbornness but blame the bad provider in the (avoidable) case of damage. From today's perspective, I am thankful that my partner was so persistent that I — at least for our business — realized that I cannot save everyone from themselves.

I can also do a little advertising here, then everyone will know right away and won’t wonder where you alone got that from?

I guess the admin wouldn’t like that Anyone who can use the internet and is interested in what you do professionally will find it.

Rhenish regards

...that the builders shown there wanted to buy a Bentley at the price of a Lupo.

That is certainly correct. For the layman, the problem is rather that so many Bentleys are offered at the price of a Lupo. Therefore, these future builders constantly sneak around our house and desperately ask themselves: "Who did they have as the developer to have made it this far?"

...the erection of the walls went smoothly. That didn't fit the script for the "documenting" film crew. So the walls had to be dismantled again and they had to wait for windy weather. Only when these scenes – shaking walls – were in the can, did the film people leave satisfied. Rhineland greetings

Of course, I do not have this insider knowledge.

Whoever can use the internet and is also interested in what you do for a living will find it.
Rhenish greetings

So definitely real hackers, but otherwise this worries me now...

Heeeeeeeehhhhhhhhhhhhh, you two quarrelers, calm down again??????????????? Everyone means the same thing but they're arguing like crazy.
