The Problem Every Owner-Builder Faces
Phone Fumbling
Ever tried pulling up a PDF on your phone with muddy gloves? Or scrolling through documents while an inspector waits?
No Signal
Lost cell service right when you need that electrical diagram? Dead zones on construction sites are common.
Dead Battery
Your phone died at the worst possible moment? Now you can't access contracts, checklists, or critical information.
Hard to Share
Ever tried showing a subcontractor a contract on a 6-inch screen? Or emailing documents back and forth on site?
Disorganized Chaos
Spreadsheets on your laptop, PDFs in email, notes on your phone. Nothing is where you need it when you need it.
Wasted Time
Searching through files, re-downloading documents, remembering what you forgot to check. Hours lost to disorganization.
There's a Better Way
Don't rely on your phone. Use organized binders with everything you need at your fingertips.

I printed the entire binder before breaking ground. Having everything organized and accessible made me look like I knew what I was doing — even when I didn't. The inspector even commented on how prepared I was.
Best $97 I spent on the entire build. The contract templates alone saved me a ton of time. The checklists kept me on track through every phase.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need special equipment to print this?
No. Any standard printer works. You can print at home or take the PDF files to an office supply store (Staples, Office Depot, FedEx Office). Expect to spend $40-60 for printing and binding.
Can I customize the templates?
Yes! Contract templates and tracking sheets come as editable Word and Excel files. Customize them with your project details, add your logo, or modify to fit your needs.
Is this legal in my state?
The templates are general-purpose construction documents used nationwide. However, always verify contracts with a local attorney and ensure compliance with your state's building codes and regulations.
Do you offer updates?
Yes! When we add new templates or update existing ones, you'll get free access to download the latest version. Your purchase includes lifetime access to all updates.

Browse our free guides on Build Your House for detailed explanations of each construction phase. The website has hundreds of pages of owner-builder advice to complement the binder system.
Can I share this with my spouse or partner?
Absolutely! Use it for your personal owner-builder project. Please don't distribute or resell the files, but printing multiple copies for your own build is perfectly fine.
