Hello, today I had to wait for an hour and only had my notebook with me... so I just doodled a bit.

This is my very first draft of the ground floor, and it probably still has quite a few mistakes.

What I’m curious about is whether there are any major errors here (for example, the staircase?).

North is at the bottom right.

One square represents half a meter (0.5 m / 20 inches).

I can understand the argument when dealing with completely unknown companies.

That’s exactly where the mistake is: no way ... I don’t get fooled by them ... I know them from the local pub, and some even from childhood. Tradition means your grandpa didn’t notice it either.

Construction workers are like Smurfs. Angel wings would get in the way under their overalls.

This is how they are among themselves, the city dwellers. They lie, cheat, even steal entire motorhomes, yet always act like they’re the smart ones just because they come from the city.

In the countryside, where a building contract is often agreed upon with a handshake, you don’t really need architects. Of course, mistakes happen on construction sites, but a phone call was enough to have the botched drywall ceiling removed and redone. Karsten

Something like that.

I would almost agree with the last sentence, although you do need to inform yourself and get comparative quotes.
But a deal is a deal here.
Doing otherwise would seriously harm business in rural areas.

That’s nonsense. How can you know whether the price per trade is realistic or not?
It’s not about a lack of trust, but simply about creating transparency.
@Nordlys you also looked at more than one general contractor before you built, right?

There are many reasons why you should spend more time considering who you choose to embark on the house building journey with.

I wouldn’t rely on knowing people in the village or that they can’t afford to be sloppy.

All the quotes from companies in our village or municipality, whether for demolition, retaining walls, foundation slabs, or earthworks, were much more expensive than those from other companies and often incomplete.

That’s why we are building at the marketplace, and no local company is involved in the construction.

That’s a completely different situation. As mentioned above, it’s important to compare and obtain multiple quotes. Basically, I prefer to work with someone I know and whose work I am familiar with, rather than a complete stranger.
