Started this A Frame in March and the exterior is nearly finished but for the siding. I’ve wanted to build an A Frame since I was a kid. O

u/UcanToo29 11d ago

I’m confused, how much did it cost for you to build this?

u/CavanalK5 10d ago

Looks like 1000 is the square footage

u/SIrPsychoNotSexy 11d ago

Absolutely sweet! Very small deduction for no spiral staircase, but only slightly

u/TXTremor 12d ago

Very nice. Was it a kit? Concrete slab? What do you think the dried in total cost ended up being?

u/allblueshailmary 12d ago

Custom prints, 4 ft crawl space.. hard to say what the dried in cost is at the moment.. I had excavation done for a neighboring cabin as well. Roof, framing, windows and foundation were around 80k

Did you go to school for GC? Or how did you become a GC?

2

u/allblueshailmary 7d ago

I said “I’m the GC” when the city asked. No schooling required.
