Clients work with a professional building consultant to develop a “Construction Costing Guide” to help them budget their kit home.
There are hundreds of options out there that are available to us, so whether you save money in buying a kitchen from IKEA, getting your brother’s mate to plaster your home or maybe your father has a green thumb and would love to help you with the landscaping, all these things will help lower the cost of your finished product. ASK HOMES say “If you can save then save!”
The biggest saving in working with ASK HOMES is in becoming an OWNER BUILDER. Although this may sound daunting, the process is actually very simple with a ‘correspondence course’ able to be completed in a single day.
By obtaining an OWNER BUILDER licence you’ll eliminate any builders profit or contingency that the builder would normally add on to their costs in case unforseen things happen. This super profit is better in your back pocket and can often see OWNER BUILDERS saving between 20% and 40% on the construction of their new home. Don’t worry, ASK HOMES will be there every step of the way if you need them, so you’ll always have the right advice when you need it. Many builders are simply middle men anyway, so at the very least you’ll save thousands just by taking the role as the organiser. You’re mobile phone is your best used tool. And because our homes are supplied as KIT HOMES, it means you’ll get a full set of kit home instructions.

Another sprinkler pipe in the attic and mounted on the catwalk where the HVAC technician needs to stand!
In the Phoenix area the city brilliantly decided that on larger square footage homes, the builders are required to install Fire Sprinklers. But of course the city doesn’t actually ENFORCE proper building, mechanical or safety codes on these tract homes! The inspectors seem to be complete idiots or just corrupt to pass these inspections for these retarded builders!
The Sprinkler Pipe is PLASTIC! Great care should be taken and the sprinkler pipe installers should NEVER mount the plastic fire sprinkler pipe onto the catwalk. The catwalk that is meant for the HVAC technician to WALK and STAND on to perform service on the Air Handler or Furnace that is up in these 150 degree attics!
For some reason, time and time again, I find the plastic sprinkler pipe mounted directly on the catwalk! Many times I have witnessed the MASSIVE water damage caused by the technician walking on the catwalk and the sprinkler pipe breaking! Sometimes the technician never actually TOUCHED the pipe itself. But the paper thin catwalk that the builder provides will flex enough to SNAP a 3 year old plastic sprinkler pipe without getting near the pipe!
Another problem is the HAZARD to the technician. The building code states that there MUST be 30″ of catwalk for the technician in front of any attic mounted Air Handler or Furnace. Also 30″ of unrestricted access to the components, high voltage parts, etc in the Air Handler or Furnace. As you will see, that is NOT the case here.
The problem lies in the retarded Phoenix, AZ area builders and the lack of city enforced building codes!
Is it incompetance or corruption?
I am still waiting for the answer to that question!
