So, this is the even more supported cottage floor. I mentioned before it will be two stories so this floor needs to be really strong. When dealing with a foundation we believe more is better.
These are the brackets that we used and the cost really adds up, just the brackets alone was one hundred dollars. So far we have spent roughly one thousand but that doesn't include the screws pictured below or the windows (that we have already purchased).
We're doing such a large project that we are buying screws 25 pounds at a time! Trust me if you are doing even a medium sized project this is the way to go. This was a 50-60 dollar savings.
Just a few (several) extra supports strategically placed and we will be moving on to the plumbing under the house so we have all the pipes placed before the insulation and wrap. Then, finally we get to lay the sub floor and dance all over it in joy and maybe a picnic too:)
Hope this has been helpful. Please leave questions as a comment instead of email. Thanks. Till next time, y'all keep it green clean and classy.
