How is a house built? Loggers cut down trees that are sent to a sawmill and made into boards. These boards are sent to builders who use them to build the floors, walls, and roof of the house. Electricians run wires for electricity and plumbers put in pipes for water. Then, the inside of the house is decorated and made ready for a family to live in it.
