We've found ourselves needing to move so we need to build a new house. I've said for a long time, "If I ever build another house, I'll build to the roof with ICF's". This would be basement and first floor. We live in the Northeast so insulation is a major consideration. Anyone have thoughts, good or bad, on building with ICF's?
The other unique feature I'm considering is putting my woodshop under the garage. Right now the woodshop is in our basement which I said I'd never do again. However, I need to consider cost(s). Any thoughts on this? Garage will be 26X30, which would be a little bit smaller shop than I have now but just a little and no support posts so I won't be sacrificing much.
Thanks
Bryan
