Hello all, I am new to this group,and would like to introduce myself. My name is Tim,and I live in the Houston Tx area.Been here 28 yr. now,and have to say we have some of the friendliest folks in the world here,so will probably stay awhile. I am a divorced father of 3 kids, 2 of which live with me. I built my last home in '93;actually I was the general contractor and subbed out most of the work.The house turned out pretty well,but I also learned a lot during the process( you cannot have too much closet and storage space,for instance). Materials and techniques,not to mention necessity, have come a long way since'93. Anyway, I managed to lose that house in the divorce,but it was an energy hog,so good riddance (electric bills in the range of 6-700/mo.) Gonna build a new one this year,and will probably use ICF for the outer walls.I have been looking at the Nudura ICF product line for the last year or so,but that could change based on several factors. There are more than a few players now in the ICF game. Do any of you folks have any experience with ICF const., and in particular plumbing and electrical issues? I would appreciate any feedback,and will try to participate as much as possible with the group. Thanks in advance, Tim
