Each person who has acquired a small plot of land for a summer residence seeks to build a house in a short time, or a similar easily-erected structure. To have a place where to relax after a hard day's work, or to shelter from inclement weather. Well, it’s natural to get settled in a domestic way. Of course, it is advisable to build a house to accommodate the whole family, and guests who came for the weekend. The task is of course a grandiose, but quite feasible, if you have accumulated savings for the construction of a country house, because a large amount of new building material will be required.
If possible, you can hire wage workers to build this building.
Of course, this will significantly increase financial costs for your family, and if there is no such opportunity, you will have to build country house do it yourself.
Basically, the owners of cottages build their houses with their own hands, in order to save money for hiring a construction team and invite relatives and friends to the construction site for help, which naturally reduces the cost of the construction process.
Even summer residents sometimes use second-hand materials that can be purchased at half price compared to market prices, but this will reduce the durability of the design, also by half.
When constructing his country house, the author decided not to save on basic material and to buy everything on the construction market, so that he would be enough for a century and stood there for a long time, pleased his family and his guests with its cosiness and aesthetic appearance.
