They remind me of my two brothers-in-law when I worked for them in the mid 80's doing remodeling (mostly 2nd story additions) and some commercial work (mostly installing doors and cabinets). I remember Bill whacking at a door stud and trimmer with his framing hammer to make them plumb, and looking up at me and saying, "Everything is adjustable!" Ha!
I like how the end of this video confirms that your team has a personality--not a persona they just put on when filming--which is why this is my favorite occupation-based channel.
Lights on one switch... I worked decades ago (1980s) at a historic estate where there were flood lights in the eaves all around the main house. They were all controlled by one switch located in the front hall coat closet. Trouble was that the actual closet light was just a pull chain, so people would go into the closet and wanting to turn on the light would hit the switch for the outside lights by mistake. The whole place would light up super bright! I ended up taking an Altoid tin, cut a hole in the bottom and glued it over the light switch so people wouldn't hit it by accident. They had to open the tin to get to the switch. It worked well, so well that I recently visited the property (my daughter had her wedding reception there) and found my Altoid tin was still in place in that coat closet after almost 40 years!
Jaime, Jaime, Jaime! Such a cut up! Lights in the trees! Uh, not with this homeowner. Poor electricians gettin’ their legs pulled 😂 Thanks for the very special Jaime humor and for thinking of ALL the details that need attending to! And thanks to the entire PBB crew for all that you are doing to make my home so amazing, your humor, attention to the details and care and concern for the build and for me. Love you guys! Happy New year to each of you and your families! Can’t wait til you are back on site ~
well. I think its a good Idea..the Lights in the trees...its what the French D..shine the Light on the Chateau, not from the Chateau...lol..Indirect Lighting also makes the place look more elegant, classy.
@@andreewert1925 - I am more of a dark sky person. I love to gaze at the stars and moon. That brings me joy! And will likely be appreciated by my neighbors. There will be some sconces on the exterior for deck use after dark and a chandelier at the porch entry and some motion detection lights for arrivals/departures after dark. Lower level Landscape lighting can certainly be beautiful. But up on the trees onto the house and deck isn’t what appeals to me. And the whole budget thing. Unfortunately money for grow on trees in my neck of the woods 😹
It’s a catio so no screening under the deck. The enclosed screened deck is to take the cats from indoor/outdoor feral-y cats to indoor feral-y cats with a a nice area to get contained outside time. Cat hair and dust from the gravel neighborhood roads would be an issue. Perhaps citronella candles or plants will help!
From the forces of a thousand voices in the universe. "Let Jamie Talk" "Let Jamie Talk" Thanks for the entertainment. If I was ever to build a house in your area. You guys would be it. The attention to detail is un matched. Even with Jay.
We love your content here in Germany/Sweden! We hope to see a big Interview with Ramel about the build, the planning and what her wishes where before starting and how you could get the order for building it.
Now imagine just how amazing this house would look if they painted it black with black windows. With the wood accents and corrugated metal wall it would be perfect.
I was a custom picture framer and I used a fine tooth blade (50 teeth i think) and a wax stick on the blade before every cut. Cleaner and minimizes the heat that damages your blade.
If money grew on trees. I did choose a full glass door and lights will illuminate the space. It was never my intention to use that area as any kind of living space as I prefer as much natural light as possible. Hence, the large deck space on the main living area. We all have our own ways of getting what we need to bring joy to our lives. I think I will be quite joy filled when all is said and done!
@@ramellesmith1520 at the very least it's a great spot to store whatever you need down there. Very excited to see the end result and I bet you can't wait to move in! It's a gorgeous house!
@@AdamSJarrett- thanks. And the subs have been so happy to be able to stand up while working! Yep, trying to be patient about the subs finishing up so PBB can get back in for painting, tile, doors and trim! Maybe by the end of February.
Showing how to safely cut a small piece of trim was great. I had a piece of trim that sucked my left index finger into a chop saw once. I was lucky to keep my finger.
You can buy mounting plates for those "canless" recessed lights that have knockouts already punched in them. Position them where you want and attach to the rafters. Then the drywallers can cut the holes when they hang the rock so sparky doesn't have to rain dust all over the place when he comes back to trim out.
It never really occurred to me that I would someday have a favorite building crew, but here we are. I love the way y'all get along and have such a great time with each other even when you're working your butts off. Doesn't hurt that Ray reminds me so much of my son. They're both quietly funny and wicked smart with similar shy smiles. Anyway, thanks so much for all you share, it really makes my workday go faster!
Love the christmas ornaments! I was visiting a small town in the North of England over Christmas and the church had like 20 trees, each decorated by a different business or club in the town, was really unique!
I've been watching your videos for a week now... love how all your team gets along, you guys crack me up sometimes. you remind me of my millwright buddies are we all work together. Anyways, I was saying that you guys do awesome job.
I only lived in Charlotte for 2 years before moving back north of the Mason and I STILL knew the state bird was the Cardinal. It might help that you share the same state bird with Virginia, where my cousin lives.
Jeson get a bigger piece of wood so your hand is away from that blade. Also clamp it and try to clamp your aluminum piece also. Its just never safe to cut pieces that small. It takes just one second and boom. Be safe yall Thanks for awesome videos guys. Keep em coming. Cant wait to see the end result of this project!
I found out the hard way that it's not safe. Had the piece ripped from my hand and dragging it sideways through the blade. I was lucky, it just nicked my knuckle enough to scare the crap out of me so I didn't do that again.
yall need a small portaban. the m12 portaban would make quick work of all those extrusions without risking fingers, eyes, or an ugly cut. they are made to carry on a tool belt and great for rigid, uni-strut, etc.
Just a heads up, if you would like to save your Engine & Transmission etc please wait a few positive seconds after starting your vehicle or any vehicle so it allows for Lubrication system to energize ( BUILD UP OIL PRESSURE ) OTHERWISE YOU WILL HAVE MAJOR PROBLEMS FROM ZERO LUBRICANT UP ON TOP OF THE ENGINE/ TRANSMISSION TORQUE CONVERTER NEEDS TO SEE OIL PRESSURE & SAME FOR THE REST OF THE INTERIOR TRANNY' COMPONENTS .

I like watching your shows at least whenever I watch it I know how I want my house fixed. If I ever get one on these days I’m hoping it will be one of these days. Anyhow, I would like to fix it some of the houses y’all built are really cool and neat and I’m a woman I like watching y’all work and I get a kick out of how y’all talk to each otherat least y’all get along with each other which I like that and you enjoy your job do a good job. Thank you for showing us people things that are new in the world on houses.
May I ask why not standing seam roof? Excellent work and videos! Keep it up. The details you give on all the small aspects of the work make this my all time favorite building show. Thank you!!
Pro-Tip: Draw an arc on the floor of door openings (to indicate door swing) for fool-proof light switch locations. You can also mark your door size to expedite door placement during finish.
It is not actually that the aluminum is "hard" but actually because it is soft. The metal is "sticky" and gets grabbed by the carbide blade tips. It is the same reason why your files gum up quickly when filing aluminum or brass.
The locked screen on that phone mounted on the TRI-pod is dang near the same as mine. I have the shot of the moon with the earth in the background. Nice. 😊
Commercial sheet metal installer here-Always a good idea to use butyl tape on the roof to wall flashing. Also on gable trim or any other area where you are fastening metal to metal like shown.
Lutron caseta allows you to stack the dimmer or switch in a closet (with the main breaker panel, etc.) and use the remotes wherever you need them, and you cane tie it to Amazon Alexa or Siri and make the lights operate by voice command, phone command, etc. I LOVE my Caseta system and it’s VERY reasonable on cost.
I currently have no internet/wifi availability beyond what I can get via cell signal. Cell signal will require a cell signal booster. I love where I live but rural America is very limited when it comes to internet accessibility. 😢
The look on the sparky’s faces when you said “mount the lights in the trees” was hilarious!! You’re actually not allowed to mount 120 volt circuits in trees for the most part, yet we e seen it 1000 times. But 12 volt LEDs are not really a problem…. Just tack up some PVC conduit going up the trees. It’s a LOT OF WORK!!!
Hey Eric, I worked weeks on a fabrication using extruded aluminum. The saw I used was an odd ball from France, I believe. It looked like most chop saws but was designed for extruded aluminium. The blade only turned at perhaps 500 rpms. BTW this odd saw was about $2000 to purchase.
Pro Tip: Eric and Jay, a good trick I learned for cutting plastics or softer materials is to turn the saw blade backwards - it works great (in my experience). I also use a hole saw for those new fangled recessed LEDs and I run those in reverse, as Sheetrock is VERY soft. Works great!
Roof looks good, my pro-trip of the day would be to put the porta-loo/lavatory in the non-basement, and keep it out of the wind. As a kid we had an outside toilet, still part of the main building, just the door was outside. In winter it was like a freezer. Be safe and well 👍
I did a total gut of my house in 2008, and that is one thing I regret. Outdoor lighting really enhances your house and is also a security component to the property. I wasn't into these youtube video to guide me.
Master electrician. When I come up against the bathroom problem of no room for switches, I use the Lutron Caseta system with the remote that needs no box. And you can make the whole house a smart home. I’d really push Ramel to go Lutron Caseta.
Currently not an option as there are no internet options in my neck o’ the woods. The not joys of living in rural America and i would trade it because off all beauty, being surrounded by nature and no traffic issues in the greater county area ( but not so for our rural, very popular little town)!
@@KylesRV - I am aware. However, there’s a wait list here. It’s a lot of money for way more speed than I need. And I am not a big fan. Supposedly, a regional provider is to have a meeting with the homeowners in my neighborhood to discuss some possibilities. I have been without internet since I sold my business and moved into my temporary home May of 2022. It’s annoying but I have managed thanks to the help of friends!
@@ramellesmith1520 if you have cell phone service, you can use Visible phone for a hot spot for your internet. $25/month for unlimited data. it is phone/internet via mobile app. search google it, get it. you can run the whole house off that hotspot. just put a wireless router in your desktop, tablet, laptop, etc.
If you haven't wrapped up the screens for the top, they make some with the small spring-loaded pins that hold screens into windows. You can do that with small holes in the wood to pop the pins into so the screens are removable but won't fall out and would not even need a track or frame since the screens will weigh almost nothing and have almost no pressure from wind (protected by eaves) and won't be hit by any users (too high up).
I have a side job for you guys, but it's in Colorado. Hit me up if you want to talk about it 😊. That house is coming along nicely. The homeowner must be thrilled.
You can use 4:36 the “wet rated” wafer lights and use a hole saw or tin snips to cut in the holes… then you just install a remodel switch box anywhere … it is possible to feed a switch leg through your soffit and into the crawl space … a vented soffit is much easier …
I have about 30 soffit lights on 3 zones. I used Lutron Caseta switches so I can control them with an app. Our soffets are stucco so that was fun. Lights are also wifi controlled ( don't use that) leds but I ran Romex anyway instead of smaller gauge wire. It looks amazing all lit up. My wife goes to bed early so I can turn the back zone off by the bedroom and patio while the sides and fronts stay on. That's why I did 3 zones. I could program a button on the app to have them all come on and or off. I could also set timers. The Caseta stuff is expensive but it works without any issues. It's worth doing IMHO. The other cool thing is this is a new upscale area. 90% of the houses also did soffit lights so at night the neighborhood looks amazing.

Don’t forget the floor decking when you’re adding screen. Bugs will come through the decking.
I was thinking the same thing.
Little tiny strips of quarter inch screening? Lol.😅
It’s a catio so no screening under the deck. The enclosed screened deck is to take the cats from indoor/outdoor feral-y cats to indoor feral-y cats with a a nice area to get contained outside time.

Love the look on electricians faces when you told them to put light on trees.
Setup a tile saw and use that for cutting aluminum. It sucks getting everything wet but its way safer and gives super clean cuts.

Love your stuff! From Oregon 👍
Jaime, replace all your light switches with smart switches controlled by a home automation system. Create an all lights on command.
I have about 30 soffit lights on 3 zones. I used Lutron Caseta switches so I can control them with an app. Our soffets are stucco so that was fun. Lights are also wifi controlled ( don't use that) leds but I ran Romex anyway instead of smaller gauge wire. It looks amazing all lit up. My wife goes to bed early so I can turn the back zone off by the bedroom and patio while the sides and fronts stay on. That's why I did 3 zones. I could program a button on the app to have them all come on and or off. I could also set timers. The Caseta stuff is expensive but it works without any issues. It's worth doing IMHO. The other cool thing is this is a new upscale area. 90% of the houses also did soffit lights so at night the neighborhood looks amazing.
