Good afternoon, dear guests and subscribers of my channel!
If you BEGIN to build a house - get ready!
If you are ALREADY building a house - hold on!
And, the topic of this article is advisers and the most, that neither is, knowledgeable people, how to build a house correctly and competently, because that many of them have already lived more than half of their lives, and you - a grandson - keep quiet and listen to adults how to do and how not ;-)
Whether you agree with me or not, I don't know... on this page I describe my personal attitude to the advice of people close to me.
In the process of building my house, - I came across a bunch of advice from relatives, friends, comrades and neighbors who came or came, expressing a lot of their opinions. Of course, among what they said there are worthy suggestions, and there is also an outright absurdity. When you don't follow absurd ideas, they also take offense at you, they say, why didn't you do as I said or said (especially, grandparents are offended).
But, dear ones, this is my life, if I ask - you can answer, if you know this topic, I won't ask - why impose?
Partly, I no longer pay attention to it, and already laugh when I assemble the closet, and verbal comments accompanying my actions come from my back. I then answer: "listen, you should go to the football commentator!"
My grandmother recently suggested making a monolithic reinforced concrete staircase on the floor over wooden beams. Connoisseurs and advisers, yok makaryok.
In fact, the relationship is getting more complicated, I don’t know about the others - but with me. It is very difficult to repulse someone's comment from close people. To a neighbor, friend, friend, you can say - "go build yourself a house and don't go"but my grandfather didn't. Grandfather and father are authorities who have gone through experience in several decades :-) And they manipulate this, due to which they leave ...
In fact, I do not take seriously the advice of those people who have not gone through the building stage in their lives that they are trying to tell and teach. Let them be offended or not - but it is so. If my grandfather did concrete work, then I will listen to him, and why not? Dad knows how to work with wood - I will only be grateful to learn. There is always something that you do not know. Any life experience is valuable. You just need to digest, compare, analyze, and possibly improve something.
But, if the grandmother gives out advice and life hacks how to plaster better and faster, when she saw this process only on TV, and 10 years ago, then this advice is worthless. No offense, ba :-)))
That's how we live...
At the beginning of the summer, a neighbor asked to see the house, how and what I did. I did not have time to go to the threshold, as he says: "Why did you make from ceramic blocks? I would have made it the old fashioned way, brick is better and blah, blah, blah!"
I then answered him. So much so that we did not go fishing for two months. I say: "Take my volume, calculate the price, compare the characteristics and bring me the results and a profitable commercial offer on the sheet. Then we'll see which is better". After that, he was offended. All the masters give advice, I look ...
I do not know... each family has its own relationship. I try to approach questions loyally and, which is important, with humor ...
Now, I began to fight off bad ideas and advice by immediately asking the advisors to bring me calculations with an independent comparison of the prices of all solutions that the market offers. While working at 80%.
To the rest I say: "There's a shovel over there, take it, dig it! When I see a dug garden, I will listen to advice... "
Thank you! And do not swear with loved ones!
"Lyonya, this will not be a house, but a fairy tale!" The neighbor listened to his wife and is building a dream house. Yes, only spits to this day

"Do not make the attic of metal tiles, it rattles from the rain" - they said. Did, tell [my experience]
