Residential Construction Resources

The B4UBUILD.COM team regularly reviews and catalogs other Web sites looking for those that provide quality information, of specific interest, for people planning, building, buying, repairing or remodeling a home. By providing links to some of the most informative residential design and construction related Web sites in the world, we hope to be able to save our visitors time and trouble locating reliable information for their homebuilding, design, renovation, addition, repair and/or home improvement projects.

Click on the links to the right to gather information before you build a new home or remodel an existing house. You may also want to visit our Book Store, read some book reviews and then head to your local library to “check them out” for yourself. If you are looking for house plans or blueprints, our Plan Center will help you search through more than 12,000 house, barn, shed, garage and playhouse plans. Should you still not be able to find specific information, try looking in our Lost & Found. There you will find links to search engines, building indices, newsgroups, as well as, a few tips and tricks that just might help you find information a little faster.

As more and more businesses develop an on-line presence, the World Wide Web is expanding at an unbelievable rate. The good news is that it is now easier than ever to research your construction project and gather detailed information before you build. The bad news is that with so much information available on-line, working your way through potentially thousands of search engine results in order to find a particular Web site that contains the specific information for which you are looking can be very time consuming.

While we cannot guarantee nor be responsible for anything that you may find on other sites, a knowledgeable expert has reviewed each of the Web sites to which we provide a link prior to adding it to our catalog. Quality and quantity of information provided, popularity of subject area, site design, and overall ease of use are all factors that we consider when selecting the limited number of sites to which we are able to link at this time.

Note: If you have been directed to this page by a search engine you can use the Find feature (Ctrl + F) supported by most browsers to locate your keyword(s) on any given page.
