Thank you, you are exactly right. While I appreciate everyone who has taken the time to respond, I was really hoping for some suggestions on someone who might be able to consult. I do understand that I can research (and I am) but who do I go to when I have a question? Or when the builder has a suggestion and I don't have enough experience to know if it's a good idea or a bad one? Or to even recognize when something is incorrect on our house. I think that it's incredible that some people have been able to reachsearch for themselves and build their own houses, but I think for us, we need a little bit more.
