Construction ITEM DESCRIPTION

Construction estimating unit cost for treated plywood sheathing on a treated wood foundation.

This price does not include foundation framing, waterproofing or drainage.

Goldenseal uses the calculated foundation wall area.

Source of Construction Pricing

Turtle Creek Construction developed these costs based on upper story framing costs. We never actually installed any treated foundations, but several users have reported that the pricing is reasonable.
