@@JohnThomas-lq5qp I think the planning engineer was actually in the wrong by misunderstanding the panel rating vs busbar rating. I think he is pretty high up in the planning department too.

@@thenexthobby the sleeve in my application is required for running it through concrete but if you're running it through wood then no sleeve needed probably.

@@leewood729 I still see it around. It looks well fed!

@@richardmckrell4899 it's got drip edge all the way around. 👍

@@keithwilliamson8428 It goes fast when you're working for yourself because you don't have to second guess every decision or ask a customer or boss for things that come up. Also, those were 10-12 hour days. I've done about 10 roofs under the guidance of a 30+ year experienced pro who taught me efficient technique. I probably should make a video about those. Maybe on the next roof.

@@danharold3087 I like ridge vents but my city wanted these specifically. I think they do a good job of keeping embers out during nearby fires.

@@10MinuteADU That makes sense. Have a good one.

That ADU Guy does a pretty good channel. I'm trying to document my experience here on RUclips for my own record and a lot of people can learn from it.

@@12dollarcereal That's correct. Larry Haun teaches in his book "The Very Efficient Carpenter" to avoid pulling out the tape measure to save time. ;) 😉

@@10MinuteADU hadn’t thought about that but it makes perfect sense. It’s not symmetrical to look at but nobody’s going to see it anyways. I’m sure the finish will be nice 👍

It's a good sealant to keep bugs, air, and sound from getting through any gaps between the bottom plate and concrete. The foam gasket that comes in a roll probably does a pretty good job but I wanted an even more solid seal there and I only used the foam seal on the exterior walls so the interior walls needed a good seal too. 👍

Great points, thank you! I am owner builder on this project so for me it just means extra work. 😆 Since it is so I'm close to the driveway that gets heavy trailers on it I decided to compact the hole as best as I can. Maybe overkill but I don't want our new driveway we'll build next year to develop a dip on that edge.

Dang! I saw a vid of a girl building her own house there and she was quoted 60k or something for foundation on modest home. A year ago here I budgeted $130/yard, but now it's 206/yard. I also had to deepen footings a bit which meant more yards. :(

Yes, the plans called for CCJ (crack control joints) 1-1/4" deep laid out as so.

@@10MinuteADU I got you where in California are you I’m in northern

@@916Concrete I'm actually trying to keep this account anonymous so I'll just leave it at "California"

Jr ADU is cheaper since you already have a lot of it already "built". A similar sized ADU would be maybe 3 times more expensive. Depends on a lot of factors. I have a local architect and engineer do my drawings. Cost is in one of my videos. Few thousand each for an ADU. I paid 75k before I even started the ADU.

Yeah, ALL the electrical on that wall is getting replaced. The broken coupling is on the old pool and hot tub circuits that were demo'd for the ADU.

If I sell the excavator for 20k and finish with 100k more expenses that will be a total of 184k for 906 SF on a slightly sloped lot. $200/SF is not bad. That ADU Guy in Oregon starts with a base case of about $225/SF on a flat lot.

Hi, I'm trying to keep this channel anonymous. I hope you understand. I won't be sharing exactly where or who or anything like that here.

@@10MinuteADU Ahhh yes I'm not the IRS so don't worry lol. I was just going to ask some questions about the grant taxes since I also have the grant money reserved through CCEDA

@@911RoyMan yeah I don't know much about it yet. I think I'll get mine funded in 2024. I'll figure out the tax stuff once my CCEDA person gets in touch with me.

CCEDA told me there is a way to get reimbursed but for a fee of around $2000. Another update was released by CalHFA I saw in Facebook group How To ADU. If your application is not complete by Dec 11 when grants will be awarded/reserved then you likely won't get it based on what I've heard around

You're very welcome! I'm trying to maintain the privacy of this project so unfortunately I can't divulge location info.
