    What should I consider when choosing building materials?


    One of the biggest challenges when building or renovating a home is deciding where to spend and where to save on building materials. One way to balance your spend is to use more expensive building materials, such as stone, timber panelling, and rain screens, sparingly, or to substitute a lower installation cost for a higher material cost.

    When comparing costs, also take into account energy efficiency and lifespan. Some windows, for example, are more energy efficient than others; and while they may have a bigger price tag, the savings you make from insulation will, over time, offset the higher upfront cost. The same goes for timber flooring – often the cheaper the material, the sooner it will need to be replaced.

    Raw materials and how they’re applied – including everything from metal roofing and timber panelling, to board-formed concrete and porcelain tiles – can provide infinite design possibilities. If you’re working with an Edwardsville, IL builder, architect or designer, they will likely have favourite building materials they like to work with, as well as favourite suppliers. Ask them for examples of how the material has been used in past projects, and seek out alternatives for comparisons.

    Questions to ask a supplier of timber and building materials in Edwardsville, IL:


  • Where do you source your supplies from?
  • How is your timber harvested?
  • What are your delivery options and fees?
  • Is your timber treated with any chemicals?
  • How do you store your timber? Is it protected from the elements?
