Come back after it's finished . Brighten you up ..😂😂❤❤
You just do not rush a job of this size,, at 27:44 the size and difficulty stands-out , and this house ain't no cake walk,, Bravo Mr BG well done .👍🛠👍
Thanks 😊
It's been a bit for a comment Geoff.
Your doing great! Keep at it & take care of yourself.
Eat right & try to get the sleep you need. Tough to wake up in the middle of the night thinking of the tons of details.
Isn't it amazing the problems you solve then? 😄
You can appreciate how much you've accomplished when you fly the drone over the site Geoff. That is a lot of work done so far! Thanks for the video updates.
A wise man said (just a few videos back) this is NOT a sprint, it's a marathon! Thanks for your time and sharing your journey!!
Anything worth having and doing needs to be done right. I think you and the people that are helping build this a dream house are doing a fine job. And I hope everyone there has a wonderful and safe and healthy mother's day
Mr Bealy Good - Sir…. I have to say to all the amazing qualities that you already have I’m going to add patience - some of the people who comment have no idea why you are doing this, no idea about the reasons to do this…. the list goes on. Geoff you do you - don’t worry or be troubled by the negativity of the minority. Please be careful not only about when working on site but also your mental health and wellbeing. Take care of yourself and each other. Can’t wait to see whatever progress you make however small and long it takes to do.
Geoff, I can't imagine the amount of effort and time you put into each day. Big prop's man. !! You have done so much with that property in the last two years it is inspiring (lol, and I watched each step, between you and Chris). But, you got to take a breath man. Rest and get it right. Measure twice and cut once. Don't worry about comments pushing the timeline. They have really no idea what all is involved in each day. I just enjoy watching someone's Dreams come true. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you 😊
Mr Bealy sure wish you had a lead hand, second in command who everyday took your punch lists to completion. I truly admire your strength as you move forward. hoping you have a Bealy good day tomorrow with the two most important women in your life
Nice warm weather like that would have been a great day to get those radiuses done Geoff.
Hi you're house will be like something in Beverly Hills! I can just imagine Mr's Bealy Good lounging by the pool and you waiting on her hand and foot!! Haha
You're work is not done yet my friend!
Great seeing the progress especially in the drone shots.
From the drone, looks like a small village being built!
Geoff its your project, it is your time, it will get done, and again, the old saying, there's only so much time in a day, and the list goes on....My comment, people just sit and go along for the ride, watch and learn. I think I've only watched 2 very small ICF construction and pours before, where this one is big. So I'm learning every time I turn on a new video, so thanks for the education and the teaching. Love videos!
Quincy seems to be your right hand man during you house and pool build. It's good to have people that you can rely on. Stay safe and God Bless.
Much thanks for the in depth journey you've provided!
Happy Mothers Day to all mums/moms/mawmaws and etc. Step-bye-step and the job gets done and the building takes shape. Make sure you take the time to recoup your energy and brain power Bealy Good - still have to make some $$ as you say.
The three channels I get really jazzed about are you, BamaBass, and Leon the Lobster, then the excavator
channels.👍
You're right, it's kinda warm, think I'll hang out in my pool for the rest of the day LOL
🤣
🧦 - Dobby approves of this video - 🧦 You are all doing an amazing job. Thank you for sharing your journey with us ❤
Dobby is my fav
Don`t know how many caught you 'going to cipher it' Jethro Geoff. The Project is taking shape. With luck you will not have a leak on the dive pool.
I TOTALLY ENJOYED WATCHING THE VIDEO BEALY GOOD 😊
Lots of hard work Geoff. When it's done reflection on the build will be rewarding to look around and say yea, I did that. Time lapse is cool making event entertaining. Have a great weekend, build on.
Thanks 👍
This is way more complicated than what you first explained to us. (Before even the hole was dug)
I'm aware, lol
Everything is coming along very nice!
Enjoy the videos and the Pacers fine you had to work with the weather and your body
People don’t understand that you are not building a “Log Cabin that’s been done thousands of times before! But a New State of the Art home using a relative new technology, and you are sharing that true experience with them.
With respect to the ICF structure they don’t understand the flexibility of styrofoam, it is a lower density insulated product with higher R valves which gives it the flexibility to work in this environment. It typically is only used in engineered products.
Your dedication to making a great product is evident by your willingness to delay timeline to ensure the quality.
John
Thanks :-). Can’t educate everyone. But that’s OK.
@@BealyGoodBook out soon,ICF for Dummies
Progress one day at a time!! Love it
All looks good, keep the videos coming
I see you bought Chris another new excavator!!!!!
Nah. I can’t afford that
Nice video Mr Bealy Good. The grass is really looking good, the house build is coming along nicely.
Thanks 👍
@@BealyGood You're welcome.
Happy Mother's day Mrs B. And pushing the poor back might save thousands and lots of frustrations soon. That's still an amazing place.
That is a lot of work. Never have I seen so much concrete used.
Looking good. Don’t let the monkey get on your back. Stay hydrated.
Things are coming along. We had that same scorching day up here too. I was out in that also. I remember taking the whole next day off to rest and worked in my office and out for the sun. Have a great Mothers Day!
Looking good!!
Nice video jeff
Well Geoff I see that Volvo Finally saw Your comment about them Dropping the ball when Chris bought his Hyundai 330 as he now has a Bright Shiny Brand New Volvo 350 but Boy oh Boy this is going to cost You so that he can pay for it LOL.
Enjoying watching your dream come true. Sure is a lot of work.
You're getting there.👍
🤔 timelaps is C👀L❗️ 👍🏻
Water in the first ready with Concrete make Pool ? It's a Impervious Test, or will You the Concrete damp is ? Then Work You farther on the new with Congrete full next nudra ICF Pool. With the Drohne Picture is to see how great this Projekt is. Gladden my of the Continuation. 💪👌👍
Geoff this is a big build and it's looking great while your building your house you have to take a break a let your body rest because if you don't your body will give you no choice I've been there and it wasn't fun. Take care of yourself and May God bless you and your family. Stay safe 🍻
1:30 What you want , and what Mrs Bealy wants are two different things 🤣🤣🤣 Good luck brother.. 😎
True 🤣
@@BealyGood But at the end of the day "Dog Dog" does whatever "Dog Dog" wants... Neither you , nor Mrs Bealy will get the better of him 🤣🤣🤣 (PS The build is looking good)
That sunhat just does something for you…not sure what though.
Keeps me from having a heat stroke 🤣🤣
Great video Geoff I am sitting here in the UK trying to keep up with the build but it is getting very complicated now I think you have taken on a mammoth task and it is clear to see the amount of effort and brain power your putting into this so I agree with what you said about not rushing it as you all need time to reflect and enjoy the work rather than grinding yourself into the ground trying to finish it sooner it is going to be fantastic take it easy and best of luck.
Carry On Mr Bealy Good.. Progress
Its coming on brother ! well done 👍
It's looking good; thanks for the video.
You'e getting there! Better to take your time and get it done right and also stay out of the heat. Love the drone fly over. Can really see how the site is shaping up. Take care and be safe. Cheers
Hey Geoff.. nice to see your progress every week… 👍🏻👍🏻
Your Deep Pool is as big as a House that I had Designed for a Couple some Years ago!
Well, let’s see a one and a half into that pool!
Probably a belly flop
Great work Geoff. Take your time, you will get there. That's one big build😀
hey, thank you for finding time with so much work to upload new videos and read and comment.
p.s. don't chase the bird, lest it steal your drone. 😂😂😂
Good job Jeff
It appears that the pool is more challenging than the basement. No reason to rush it. Do it right or do it twice!
Definitely more difficult
I envy your skills and tools and your intestinal fortitude 😂. Take guts to take on a job like that. And you do so much alone 👍🏽
Thanks 👍
Thanks
Geoff looks great! Kevin
👋👋
Regarding your dirty pond water.There is a way of keeping it cleaner.Once the pond is full you don't need it to run into the pond. You could have a system that diverts excess water down a drainage ditch /Pipe along the side of the pond to below the dam into the run off stream.
A simple water gate and floating barrel could open and close the gate.Best of luck.
Hi Geoff, first time comment, long time watcher from Australia. I’m am amazed on how much you’ve achieved in the past few years, watching Bealy Farm develop along with your other land interests is both interesting and educational. I notice you surround yourself with reliable good companies that share your vision, keep up the great work your videos, really enjoy watching 😊
Thanks 😊
The longer wall braces, one of which we could see real well, that bowed on you. If you add a second 2x4 to create a "T" it will stop the bowing and help you when adjusting them as well as reduce the chance of possible breakage of said brace once the pressure of the concrete is applied.
Geoff, please take your time otherwise you will have a breakdown from the pressure. Take it from me I was in the game all my life. Greetings from Australia
Hey Jeff just a quick suggestion from a former ICF installer first when ur pumping have the person watching for blow outs has a whistle to alert you over the noise and a curry comb works well for rasping the walls
Thanks for the tips 😊
Not sure when mothers day is here in NZ but normally just give the wife a lotto ticket. Project is coming along at a steady pace bro. Safe travels. Ken.
It's today bro, hope you've been down the lotto shop or no happy mother's day for you!
We are ready to see the walls.
Me too
I hope those crocks are steel toes.. Don't need a foot injury at this point in the build. I don't see how you keep up with all you have going on. Amazing.
I don’t know either 🤣
Pond is looking a bit milk chocolaty there Geoff. Wonder if a few hay bales strategically placed in your incoming swale might help filter some of that out for future rains. -OR- better yet, maybe a biplane flies over the neighbors 20 acres and "accidentally" spills a bunch of grass seed. Yeeeaaahhh, that's the ticket! 😅😅
Thanks for sharing.
I like that idea 🤣
I think the videos are highly informative on ICF. I know that you can only show so much content each time but it would be interesting to know how many total man hours and days it actually takes to complete this from the time you started ICF until final pour. Great channel. What’s the rating on this as far as hurricane winds?
I’m keeping up with days so I’ll report on that after the pour. If a Cat4 was on the way, I wouldn’t leave. I expect it would take more than that , the windows would be the limiting factor above 130+
Geoff...did the diving pool leak? that zero pool is going to be very nice and then there is the little cottage that you are building to house you all!!! I hope it is going to be big enough for you all. Thank you Ed in Partlow Virginia.
No. It did pretty good. I pumped it out.
The holes that help the plywood in the pools don’t you have to fill them? Looks great thanks for sharing
Yes. They get either a 2 part epoxy or a different product that is like concrete.
I wonder about that smaller pond that feeds back into the main one. Maybe you're way ahead of me on this but I wonder if the water from the main pond could be pumped from the far end to the smaller pond so the sediment in suspension could settle out in the smaller one on its way back to the main one? Sort of like a swamp filter system. Slow process but maybe solar powered pump? It could even be a reed bed channel so it would have a fair amount of capacity.
Ya know what....I like to have never got my promotion from shift supervisor to General Foreman until I got the hint by being sent to 1 of several seminars that focused on delegating responsibility and accountability to others .
It proved my knowledge and trust to my men as well as my Superintendent. It saves lots of time and money.
Delegation is important. Hard to find good help though.
Why not notch out an 8"x8' from the small pool to the deeper pool for a little waterfall since you rocking the bigger pool. Just a suggestion. Good job! :)
I’m notching out about 36 feet :-)
Coming along nicely and so when is the lazy river and the water slide going in
Waterslide a little later. Not sure about a lazy river 😁
love the hat, jeff.. where did you get it? the time it takes to do a great job is the time it takes.. like they say Rome was not built in a day.. looking fantastic guys.
My oldest son and dil got it for me from Bucees
Lookin' good, Geoff. Sometimes, because the work is fine/fiddly, it doesn't look like you're doing much even though you're working as hard as when you do large things. You said a while ago that this was a 3 year plan (of course the pond build was supposed to be a 3 yr thing too🤣). So I don't get why people bitch & moan about 'how long it's taking'. I, for one, appreciate how you are sharing this with us all and bringing us along for the ride. Thanks, Geoff. BTW, thanks for letting us know how Liz is doing - I'm really glad to hear that all is well now. Happy Mom's day to Jackie.
Also, what has the water in the lower pool shown? Anything yet? Inquiring minds want to know!😉👍
Some people are never happy 🤣. Thanks for your continued support and comments.
I’m 1st. Yippie
Hey Dog Dog
I'm not in a hurry for the pour, I know that things take time.
You could develop a video game based on your building enterprise.
That would be pretty cool
Two questions. On the sun shelf, why not fill it partly full of soil instead of all gravel? Second question, have you thought about putting in a floating silt barrier in you silt pond upstream of the main pond?
As for rushing the job, haste makes waste. Better to take your time and do it right and with the least tax on your body.
The dirt settles and it’s not enough fill for me to want to compact every foot to save the gravel.
I’m looking at plants that will grow in the silt pond and act as a filter.
Geoff, Brother, Where Did You Get That Big Rimmed Hat, I Need One!! Thanks, I Love Your Channel, I Don't Know Why?? LOL Just Kidding!!! XX Oi-Oi!!
Bucees 😁
Hey Geoff,Looks to be coming along fine.I was cooling my heals the other day, at the local watering hole and this other gentleman that was there was talking to bartender about maybe building his new shop/garge/basement with ICF..He said he was just starting his due diligence,but so far it was scratching him the right way..Well i had to speak up and told him "I know a guy"(lol) that is showing his entire build ...so i showed him your channel,he wrote channel name on a paper drink coaster and said when he got home he was gonna check it out..I have no idea if he did or not..I guess the moral of the story is,Ya just never know who you could be educating out here and for years to come and all for free too!!..to me thats pretty Fffing cool!!
So F**k these haters commenting its taking too long,I promise ya there the ones living in Mama's basement and have never done a damn thing.
You keep them coming and I'll keepa watchin.
I and im sure the vast majority here appreciate what you have put into this and all the info you have given us and once again all for free!!!...stepping off my platform now..stage right>>>>
Doug in Ohio
That’s pretty cool, Doug. Thanks for sharing the channel!
Looking from the pond, is the left front wall of the basement that has no windows going to be backfilled with dirt?
Somewhat. There’s a retaining wall that will come off the front of the upper pool.
At this point i need to see pool and foundation final pour
Not next video but the one after that
Do you have any merch? I'd love to have a Beally Good T shirt.
We are all out right now. We’re talking to someone about a minimum order. Hopefully have it soon.
Happy Mother's day Mrs B Mr B I realize why you put that water in there it wasn't so that you could see if it leaks you wanted to have some water in there so you can keep yourself cool😂
🤫🤣
☘️🇮🇪🇺🇸 even in’ Geoff your strength courage faith & conviction certainly are shining through. Remember plz it took 897 learning experiences before they got that damned bulb to actually light up. As for your vindictive neighbor & his potentially destructive run off - I suggest you take into account the damage to your property- you’ve spent how much seeding etc? Do you know if he’s put anything down on his property that’s now running into your pond potentially poisoning the fish/water? You’ve had to place aerators due to the silt run off … silt fences ? Berms? I’m just saying homeowners insurance … your home is your investment you’re in my thoughts & prayers 🌹🙏🏼
Need to put some color on those anklesl 😎 😆
🤣🤣
What kind of liners are u going to put in the pools?
They get a coating called Ecofinish
The lake Bealy Good monster is a beaver dressed up as a loinfish.
Sneaky 🤔
Ho long can the Nudura be exposed to the sun, before its starts to deteriorate
We may find out
Are you going to put a slide from the top pool into the lower pool?
Yes
What type of concrete Key are you putting in for your sundeck top? I have not heard or seen you talking about it.
I’m just going to put a groove in the top of the sun shelf wall
I have built 300,000 to 500,000 gallon in ground water tanks with the walls 12” thick but I am assuming you have 6” walls, to help assure water does not get to the gavel inside you might think of getting you something like metal tubing or lumber and putting two 1-1/4 to 1-1/2 x 2” deep keys in and when you put the lid on and vibrate on that top section really good. Water can migrate where you think it won’t. Also try and use smaller aggregate when you pour you lid so it gets in the key better and get some roofing tar and install inside the key along with the concrete milk binder to help the concrete seal to each other. I’m just trying to help you brother as I have seen some failures before I started building concrete tank. Everything is looking good and people don’t understand you may have things planned to happen on one day but things come up and it gets pushed out some. They are the Monday morning contractors that has probably never been on a construction site and has never built a house. Good luck and keep making the videos.
Will the pump room have a drain ?
Yes
At the end, allready pumping the water out of the pool again?
Yeah, I had to walk in it to put the back bracing on. Lol.
good progress, great video 👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks 👍

Hi Sheldon
You’ll probably just deal with a muddy pond for a year or two until vegetation covers the cleared land
