As a guy who was his own general contractor and put in sweat equity
the roof is to be put up as soon as practical, after putting in the
exterior wall sheething. That protects all the stuff under the roof
as you get to work on the other parts of the house (plumbing, heating,
electricals, insulation, drywall, etc. ) Did that 25 years ago when
there was a government program that assisted low income people to own
a house. We went though classes at a local technical college first
that told us the building regulations, trades and design
considerations that go into building a house. It was a very
informative course
