SIPs Officially Ordered!

It's official: we've ordered the SIP Kit! Today we sent our first of two wire transfers to SIPs of America, the SIP manufacturers in Virginia. The total SIP Kit price was $6,550. We could have gotten blank SIPs for a lot less ($3,800) , but it seemed totally worth it to us to have the SIP manufacturer cut out all our windows & skylights and to cut & install all the 2x4s. This will safe us a lot of time and work during the build process. As if using SIPs to begin with wasn't already saving us months of hard work to frame the thing. Honestly, I don't know why anyone would want to use any other construction method- this is just so fast and simple, and the end product will be better insulated than a traditionally framed house would be.
