Hello all, General inquiry - If you are working on a project and are interested in using materials local to the site, how would you go about figuring this out? I guess this is in terms of stone, wood, or any other abundant material in the area. Would you talk to the client or contractor(s), go to local lumberyards or other forms of building supply stores? I am really clueless. Thanks in advance.
