Web sites

[Joeinindy]

Anybody know of any good web sites on home remodeling? I'm trying to find a site that is as good as this one but for adding onto my house. Help!

Joe, I've yet to find one as good as this one (on any topic for that matter!), but here are a couple in my "favorites"...

I've not participated in either recently, so be your own judge. Hope this helps and if you find better, share with the rest of us /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

How old is your house? I can suggest a number of old house sites, though few are as active as this one.

Taunton runs a couple of sites under http://webx.taunton.com/

Our house is only 12 years old so there shouldn't be the surprises that one finds on really old places. I have been to all the sites you guys listed but I'm trying to find one that has more depth on costruction and dealing with contractors. Sure wish there was a site as good as this one is.

www.jlconline.com is THE JOURNAL OF LIGHT CONSTRUCTION web site. The print magazine always has articles on the business of general contracting, change orders,CAD programs, dealing with subs, employees,inspectors etc.The print version is way more informative than the web site.
