I recently bought an old house in Northern N.H. It has an unfinished basement, the basement floor is just sand actully. My question is, under the kitchen (20' x 18') there is a 3 ply 2x10 beam supporting the 2x8 floor joists. The problem is the base of the metal columns holding up the beam are just dug into the sand about 1' and are not resting on concrete. I was wondering how big of a concrete pad I should try to put under the base of the columns?

I am buying my first home and.....oh buddy.....it's a fixer-upper, BIG TIME!!! I have alot of plans for it, but am kinda confused on what to do first. Can you do Eletrical before drywall, or should windows before drywall. HELP!
oh, yeah, I'm way to cheep(broke) to hire a contractor.
And is it easier to do 1 room at a time, or should I go for it and do it all at once.
Oh, sorry 1 more question. Can I get a loan on my house even if it's not paid off yet?
