New Home by Self Help for Meinzer Family at Childress
The Lewis Meinzer family built a brick new home in Childress after three years of planning and collecting bricks. They saved substantial costs by doing much of the work themselves, tearing down an old house for materials and acting as their own contractor. The project included a backyard shop, a patio fence, a water system, and reuse of porch columns, funded by steady budgeting and labor.
