I guess these wood are 12ft in lenght? Because some saw mills cut 2x4 in 18ft sizes which will change the overall estimated quantity. Well done.

I have a question.

Is it better to buy your own materials and give the builder or should you leave it for them to do so?

Learning.

Learning.

Depends on you, if you have the time and knowledge then you can buy and give to the builder. The stress is on the knowledge. But this sometimes saves the builder the hassles of explaining why some faults happened with the construction, he cannot be blamed for faulty materials if the owner is the one that bought. Depending on a lot of other factors sha.
