How to Prepare to Build your Dream Home! (Hint: Do your driveway right, the first time!)
One of our clients this summer bought some property around Cooks Forest PA (Cooksburg is where many campers go, but he chose some property outside the main tourist hub).
So far he has gone through the following steps:
Shop for property
Buy a property
Camp on the property while doing basic improvements
We worked with him to take some of the ground from marshy and swampy to dry and level. The next step is…
Building a driveway!
This client is expecting to host people regularly on the property once it’s completed. As a result, he decided to not skimp on the driveway, and went with a beautiful circular drive! Circular driveways are always a client favorite because they are so easy to use! If you have the space, we recommend them. This will also make it easy to get materials in and out when you are ready to build!
Driveways are absolutely crucial when it comes to homebuilding. A cheap, poorly compacted, thin, or bumpy driveway with poor drainage will probably collapse under the weight of trucks bearing heavy loads. This can cause extra wear and tear on the machines and the road, AND can cause messy breakdowns as machines get stuck in mud, snow or ice during the rainy seasons. Please, avoid these headaches when you are looking to build your home in Western Pennsylvania! Get your driveway done right the first time.
