    In DIY's new Home IQ series, you'll follow the Oberg family during the decision-making process of building this beautiful new home.

    Today we'll follow the Oberg family as the footprint of their custom-built home rises from the ground and becomes the foundation. See how the home begins to take shape and what role these new homeowners play when the foundation is built. The builder and the masons set the building blocks of the foundation and create the backbone of the house. See how one single wrong number on the plans can change the shape of the house -- and most of the rooms in it. Plus, learn about giving the foundation extra support and how to get a guaranteed dry and warm basement.
