description: "Our Guidebook on Construction is…substantial…and that’s because we have a ton to cover to get you ready for this phase. Obviously everything in here isn’t meant for everyone - feel free to skip around - because sometimes folks are simply handling a plumbing leak and other times we are helping with a complete multi-building rebuild.   That said, we are going to cover general contractors and what types of documents they use such as Estimates and Change Orders as well as Blueprints and Elevations. We’ll dive into the associated tradespeople that are going to help rebuild your home and we will also cover the general materials and terms used in the industry. There’s no time like the present though, so grab a hammer and your tool belt and let’s get slinging."

### Foreword:

Our series of Rallybacks on Construction is…substantial…and that’s because we have a ton to cover to get you ready for this phase. Obviously everything in here isn’t meant for everyone - feel free to skip around - because sometimes folks are simply handling a plumbing leak and other times we are helping with a complete multi-building rebuild.

That said, we are going to cover general contractors and what types of documents they use such as Estimates and Change Orders as well as Blueprints and Elevations. We’ll dive into the associated tradespeople that are going to help rebuild your home and we will also cover the general materials and terms used in the industry. There’s no time like the present to get started, so grab a hammer and your tool belt and let’s get slinging.
