Building a Home

vaulted vs. boxed ceilings

19 years ago

Hello. My wife and I have been researching this site for a while. It is a Great site. Lots of great information. We are looking to start building next year and will sub it out ourself. We have a couple of questions if someone would be interested in answering......Has anyone ever built a Nelson Design Group home? Specifically NDG-646?? We love this plan. We have 3 DD and it would work out great. Our next question is.....which is cheaper to build vaulted or boxed ceilings?? Any information would be great if anyone would like to share....Thanks in advanced.
