 You can go with black corrugated pipe for gutter drains but PVC or SDR35 is even better just a little more expensive.
 
 It’s not available to every location because of local regulations but it’s worth asking your builder about. Get that water away from the foundation!
 
 Are you sold on gutter drains as much as I am?

 @Castle.Home.Inspection found this New Construction fail at a recent inspection. 
 
 
 I chuckle inside when I see comments in my FB group suggesting homeowners to stay away from the jobsite and leave it up all up to the contractors.

👇All the tips and ideas from my videos are organized in here:  ✅The Ultimate Home Building Checklist at BuilderBrigade.com What are your thoughts on a Laundry Chute..? 🧺 I was looking at a floor plan the other day and one of the bathroom vanities backed up to the Laundry room and you could totally put a passthrough in there to work as a laundry chute. So many different ways to approach it.  🏦 If you’re really feeling fancy, you can look up the Laundry Jet, it’s like a central vacuum system for your laundry. Kinda like the this tubes at banks that suck up that container when you put a check inside.  #BuilderBrigade #homebuildingtips #homebuilding #customHome #HomeBuildingChecklist #laundrychute #laundryroom

 Your builder is most likely planning to use porch post plinth blocks but you might want to ask just to be sure.
 
 You can get these aluminum porch post plinth blocks online at HomeDepot.com
 I haven’t found any decent ones on Amazon yet.
 
 What are your thoughts on these blocks? Are they a requirement for your house?

 Placing your tub on mortar is an older technique that kind of fell off (at least from what I see around here).  It helps give the tub a solid base to reduce flexing.  
 Most of these fiberglass tubs have a bounce to them where mortar would have fixed the issues.  They also make foam that can be used instead of mortar but I’ve never seen it personally. 
 
 What are your thoughts with Tub on mortar.. Overkill?

 Don’t skip on these home features and products:
 
 3- Moen Flo.
 This monitors the water entering your house so if you’re gone and it detects water being used, it will automatically shut off. You can also monitor the water usage. @moeninc
 
 2- Drain pans
 Get a drain pan under the dishwasher, fridge, washing machine, and most importantly ice makers. Those things are prone to leaking. You can go with a trench drain pan that connects to an in-ground drain line or the old trusty pan that redirects water to the front of the appliance. @Killarneymetals
 
 1 - Smart Devices
 There’s a ton of smart devices to add to your house but my “can’t live without devices” are:
 
 Thermostat - because I’ll be damned if I come home after a trip and my house is a blistering 68 degrees.
 
 The other is automatic shades, seriously once you get them you can’t go back.
 Smartwings are the budget ones I have now even though they’re still pretty pricey.
 But once I hit it big, I’m going with the Lutron shades, they’re super nice.

  Here are 5 things you’ll want on your new home build: 
 4-Conduit to TV (add and remove wires FOREVER!)
 3-Christmas outlets (under the soffit and mantel to name a few)
 2-Gas line for endless gas to the fire pit or even the grill
 1-Prewire for a generator. SO much cheaper now than later

If you look closer, the lack of insulation is not the problem. (this pic was taken before they finished)   The ruler was lowered a couple inches lower than it should be.  So after they finish blowing the insulation there would be less insulation overall.    2-3” across the entire ceiling of this home adds up to 480 cubic feet!   @DerekFlett caught this early and immediately brought it up to the contractor who fixed the ruler placement and blew in the agreed depth of insulation.    I’m adding this to the Checklist! Crazy it’s something a homeowner would have to watch out for but nobody cares as much as you! ✅Get the Checklist at BuilderBrigade.com     🙋‍♂️ How pissed would you be if you found this happening at your house?   #BuilderBrigade #homebuildingtips #homebuilding #customHome #HomeBuildingChecklist #insulationfail #insulation #homebuildingfail

 Choosing between toggle or decora switches isn’t really a hard choice. Most know their preference right away. 
 
 Just be sure to make that choice early or you’ll forget in the chaos of home building. 
 Don’t walk in to find your entire house is decked out with switches you don’t really like. 
 
 There are so many decisions to make so don’t overlook this one!
