Re: turnkey or labour contract better?

Better to go with Labor contract.

Turnkey contracts looks good initially but gets complicated as the work progresses. - many contractors start drama once the structure is over and keep asking for more money but work will slow down.
I have seen many people struggle with contractor at mid stage ...

Re: Home Construction- Plan

Hi Currywurst,
I am surprised there is no Bedroom in Firstfloor !!
Better think about it once again. It is always good to have one Bedroom. For a 30x40 site, it surely and nicely can be accommodated.
I am not sure about your taste.. but sorry, without it, i cannot approve this design. :)
