Where do I start to build a small, affordable, low-maintenance house?
你好,我今年20岁,住在不列颠哥伦比亚省北部。我曾经租了一个小木屋,一辆自行车一年四季到处去,我现在有了,住在我的卡车里,因为我正在存钱为我和我的狗建造一个环保的房子。
I have researched tiny houses and such, but as a vegan working student with a dog and who like to garden, I find they are: A) a little cramed B) too much maintenance. I then started looking at Earthships which had great ideas but seemed off. Btw, I love your guys's article on that.
Anyways now I'm here, your website is very helpful and I will definitely using alot of your ideas :) I've already been telling everyone in my fam of construction workers to check out your website. (They all think I'm crazy and don't believe that you can feesably make an 'eco home' in our part of the world) anyways I am hoping you guys could give some pointers on where to start.
The home will have to be 100% off grid due to location. Hopefully I'll be able to have a well. I currently own some solar panels and have access to a variety of machines for digging and clearing land, and I know if I can create a reasonable plan I can get friends and family on board to help.
我知道这是很多的信息,我只是想描述一下。不管怎么说,我不是一个建筑工人,我读到的很多信息都有点难以筛选,但我真的很有热情地向人们展示,在这个地区过生态生活是可能的,你不需要很富有,也不需要有其他的工作,让你在这个世界上拥有所有的时间。如果一个学习语言学的20岁女人都能做到,那么其他人也能做到。哈哈,谢谢你读到这里,如果你有,请,请,请,如果你能给我指出正确的方向,我将非常感激!
What we can do is give you a list of things to consider and things you will need to decide on. This is at least a starting place, feel free to ask follow up questions about any of it, here goes!
A ‘Tiny House’ is typically on wheels, but in our opinion, immoveable homes are better. If you are looking for a mobile tiny house, here are a few links to check out:
If you are looking for a stationary house, you need a piece of land to build on. I’m not sure, but do you have that land already? Great if so, but before purchasing a building lot I would check with the local municipality if they have a minimum home size requirement, and if that is a size you are comfortable with. Here are some pages to help.
在地板和地下室之间选择——地板更便宜,更环保,更健康,更耐用。你可以买一个预制板套件,或者你可以让一个工程师设计并自己建造(与你的帮手)记住,根据现场条件的软成本,如工程和许可,一个并不总是比另一个在预制和手工制作之间更便宜,所以定价。
To stay on budget when building a home, you need to carefully plan the steps ahead, see below.
We will have more news in the near future about innovative prefab kit homes that are LEED Certified and Passive House ‘ready’, in that they are of a quality that can meet those requirements. That’s a good thing for living off grid because it keeps your heating costs down, which In your case I imagine is likely firewood? Some solar heating options are linked below.
That is really just a start, you still need to choose a wall assembly, here are a few pages of material types that are available.
This is probably waaaayyy more info that you were expecting, and some you may have read before but I just wanted to make sure you found a few of our more obscure and interesting off grid articles. You can find all that stuff and more in theEcohome Building Guide Pages, but also pop in any keyword like 'off grid' in the search box at the top of every page and you will find even more. Good luck!
Thank you for the detailed response! I will definitely be reading these articles. I do already have some land :)
