WESTSIDE'S KEY POINTS

Following the foundations, conscientious structural frame work & superior quality materials are key factors in making the difference between construction projects that will stand solid for decennials and those that will deteriorate rapidly, thus necessitating repairs.

Here are a few important points:

• Make sure your contractor has been supplied with structural floor & roof plans by his supplier and that he follows them rigorously.


• For a structure that will not shift and warp (affects your walls), you need to be assured that your contractor uses KD (kept dry) wood studs. Verify that the plan specifications are respected.
