Hi Mike, this is such a specialized build that you’d really have to ask a builder who works with reclaimed materials. The only ones I know of using 95% reclaimed materials are Reclaimed Space and Tiny Texas Houses, both in Texas. My sense is that in general, it takes a lot of effort to dismantle an old building and prepare materials for reuse. If you’re doing it yourself, you can save some money. If you’re paying someone else to do it, it will cost more than buying new materials.
cheers,
Mili
Love this little home, La Arbolenda just wondering what something like this would cost?
