In our forum description, we ask: “What does getting it in the dry even mean?”
To an owner-builder, it means absolute peace of mind. It’s that critical milestone where the roof decking is felted (or synthetically wrapped), house wrap is on, and windows/doors are in. Suddenly, your lumber package is safe from the elements, and you can breathe.
Let’s talk strategy:
- For those who have built: How long did it take you to get from framing delivery to “in the dry”?
- Did you hit any massive rain or snow delays that kept you up at night?
- For those planning: What is your plan to protect your exposed subfloors if the weather turns bad before the roof is on?
