Josh and Erin great to see people like you following your dream for you and your family. We in America can take pride that we have the freedom to follow our dream as most do not even know that, nor know that in other countrys you do not have this freedom or opportunity. You are doing it the American way and you are taking advantage and doing it yourself, My wife and I believe in this and wish most Americans would appreciate what and how you two are doing it together, wow. So proud of you. God Bless you and your family. Bob & Cinda
Thank you. I think I have binge watched at least 100 of your videos. The learning and teaching you two give to your children and subscribers is in itself an accomplishment. The passion behind following your dreams and doing it, is simply not measurable! You two give inspiration! Keep it going! Namaste!
I bought 5 acres in Colorado last month. I too will be building a home on it. Built 12 homes in my 20's for work. Now in my 30's, I choose to build my own. Semper Fi
Good for you! We’ve remodeled three houses and just moved to our fourth...I have some great ideas 😊I really would have liked to build a house but my husband didn’t want to put that much effort into it, probably that whole job thing.
I like how you guys keep it real. Building a structure doesnt go to plan all the time. Things lile this happen. I love how positive you still are and find a way to still make it work.
And I'm sure that would be fine if you were life bonded to another man... This couple will have these memories, good and tough, until they don't have the capacity to remember anything. Way beyond their grandchildren's birth hopefully.
In all my construction projects I have found it generally takes 3 times as long as I thought it would for the steps involved and will cost about 4 times as much as you think lol. You two are doing a great job. My favorite "TV" show lol!
Bless your hearts; could see you were not comfortable the first day up. It really doesn't get nerve racking until you are fully extended up in the Cherry Picker in winds. What's really fun is the safety training when you get to find out the function of your safety equipment and have to test your harness and lifeline; there was only one way of doing that! That class years before made trying my first (and only) bungee cord jump from 75feet on my 41st birthday a little less scary once the attendant gave me a push off the platform. I had my eyes open for the subsequent 4 recoils, the first taking all the way back up to the platform. What a blast. My youngest son wanted to try the jump but would not until Mom went first. The things we do for our kids! It was worth it. He made 3 jumps and lost his slight fear of heights. All the sheet metal I've helped install has called for valley/flat area screw placement which makes more sense, more secure and is less damaging to metal as well as requiring shorter screws. Don't be discouraged, y'all are doing good. Take a breath and pat yourselves on the back.
I have been following your videos from the very start, you have given me many enjoyable moments in the building of your family home, the joking between yourselves just shows how well you work and live together, long may it reign. Because of injuries received serving with the British Para’s I spend most of my time lying on my bed and my iPad is a lifeline. Watching your videos gives me great enjoyment more than you can imagine, long may you send them. I know you are from a different country but to me you both are friends from the next farm. Trevor T. Canterbury Kent UK.
As somebody who , for years drove and operated a few truck mounted , "MEWP 's" that would do from 34 metres (115 ft ) ..to..72 Metres (240 ft ) straight up and with a good radius, I have massive admiration for people who really don't like heights but still attempt to do their best...just keep on keeping on ....Love it.
I love watching y’all because of the way you are with one another. You’re honest, humble, and so real with each other. I love it. Keep up the good work!! God bless.
What you guys are doing is truly intriguing. You're running away from the city's rat race. At the same time, churning out addictive content. "Raising a family in the woods" ain't that the dream of every 2nd person on earth.
I fully understand your pain on up/down the ladder all day eats into time. Installed a 8'x20'ft metal roof by myself. Your home is lovely and I wish your family the best in completing the exterior before the snows start.
Love the ufda! We had a dear friend that lived to be 96 and she used that term for many responses. She was Norwegian and a very courageous lady, loved and miss her so much. Loved hearing that word said with just the right amount of "ufda" 🤗 You did rock and roll this!! Just getting in that contraption is a victory! 👍
Josh, I agree with your opening statements. I am sure you realize how lucky you are. In a previous post your wife shared a picture of you in your punk rock phase and she said how her dad didn't care because he knew how much you two cared for each other. I found that to be so touching and very sweet. You are a wonderful couple and thank you for sharing your journey.
I'm very proud of you two. You did right by not drilling thru The ridges that is asking for a leak. They are there for a reason. Love y'all see ya next time😘😘😘
Erin, I understand your fear in that basket. I worked in the fishing industry here in New Bedford, Massachusetts. Many of times I worked in the same machine. Just imagine being on that machine, on a barge, in the harbor, being 30-40 feet straight up in the air. Took some time to get used to it, dealing not only the swaying of the basket, but the ocean and the wind. Needed to check my shorts a couple of times.
Great job guys! For having fear of heights you work very well. When we work beyond and in spite of our fears, we become masters of our lives. You have exposed your bravery. Congratulations.
Josh so complimentary of your harness Erin.... Love it!!! Those booms take some serious adjusting to, dizziness, vertigo, and bouts with nausea. I demoed a house last year it was built in the 1850s had the boom fully extended skill saw, Sawzall, standing on the first and second rail. I wish someone had told me to get a harness or that they were available... thanks for the front row seat guys wonderful work from Wild and wonderful off grid
.. y'all can only move as fast as you can and still be safe and do the job the right way...you BOTH are amazing and have such a strong work ethic.. it's always a treat..to watch..thanks for the laughs & the smiles...☮️&🌱's

Love watching these two work...and they work SO hard. If anyone deserves a home...
that must be an amazing feeling, to put the roof on your self-built house. and I love the sound of the crickets in the background at the end. that will be a pleasant sound to go to sleep by.
I’m like a proud surrogate parent, because you two make me so proud and happy! I just love love love your fun banter and the unspoken respect for each other. You have done more together, and very well I may add, than probably a dozen other couples would do together in a lifetime! It’s so sweet seeing the depth of love between you two. I know I just got too mushy for the majority of your viewers. 😳😳😂. They will just have to put on their big boy 👖 pants, have a little Debbie timeout and deal. Seriously.......RESPECT 2U!!
Can't stop looking at your videos ... you're so inspiring ! Great respect for the two of you and beside I have to admit that the charm, courage and power of "wonder lady" Erin keeps on attracting me each day to RUclips ... Respect !
Lifts may everyone nervous for a lil while unless your used to them, but safest way to get high up. Looking good guys and so you didn't get done, it just takes longer using a lift, moving and the up and downs. You will get it done and i just love how you do not panic and plan for when you need it again. There are only so many hours in a day. Like i said, i love the look it gives the place.
I started watching your videos about a week ago, and I truly love what you guys are doing. I am originally from Georgia, but I moved out to California about 4 years ago, so seeing the country side back east makes me homesick for sure. Keep up the amazing work, the house is looking great, and I can't wait to see everything complete :-).
The one thing I've learned from my projects. The time estimate is always twice what you think. Take your time and do it right, it's your home after all.
the build is a marathon not a sprint , you get done what you get done and what you get done you're making sure you do it properly to the best of your abilities. Keep on keeping on and before you know it this stage of the build will be done and you will be starting the next section of your house, but, all in good time :)
I am continually amazed by the challenges you both are willing to take on to accomplish your dream. I know first hand how scary lifts can be and you guys took on the challenge regardless and didn't give up. KUDOS to you both for reaching outside your comfort zone to make it all happen and such beautiful work!!!!
My wife is a metal roof installer (don’t know the English word for it) here in Sweden and you guys are doing it correctly when fastening the roof. :) Always screw in the valley never on the ridges.
you people are enjoyable to watch, i think what you are doing is great! i know that it is a lot of work, but you two are good for each other which is real neat. keep up the good work!
My family loves you guys! Can’t wait for your videos every week. I love how the two of you interact and your kids are so sweet. You’re doing a great job guys!
That machine definitely made that job possible. Thank goodness that nobody got hurt and that you guys was able to get it knocked out. I have family in West Virginia and I am thinking one day I will move there cause the cost of living here in Baltimore Maryland is just insane.
Hey you've got it wrapped for weather(it's all good), getting in a hurry when tired and working up high can be a recipe for a trip to the ER. If you can get a harness attachment to the A-frame ridge, using the ladder later on will be alot more "enjoyable"..... Great roofing job you two, plus I'm guessing your oldest boy is doing a great job with his siblings!
Fantastic effort Josh and Erin. Yes those lifts can be a little scary at first but after awhile it becomes second nature. Great job. Enjoy the day. Ray L
One little red light on the mountain in the background , bummer , light pollution in your beautiful view . But like the man says “ it is what it is , wada ya gonna do “ still beautiful ⛰
Guy's never change!!! Love the back and forth banter. Your blog shows real couple working together mistakes and all. Watch the comment's about do this or that some no nothing of they are talking about. Some Guy in mom's basement blowing smoke. (ICC Inspector Retired.)
Lot of Love from INDIA to the family. i salute your work..it inspire me. and in your old age, when you will see these video, you will feel proud on this work.
Chin up guys. You learned how long it takes to do this. That is a plus! You are an amazing couple. Keep up the great work. You inspire me to be better.
Great content. The filming and production is just right - real quality, not overdone. I feel like I am there and get the vibe. I like how both give run downs every few minutes of what the hell is going on, it makes it more enjoyable to watch. Very nice to see you prioritize safety in this video Josh! The ladder/bucket incident was not a good look. Anyways, great choice in making it a priority. Its wonderful to see the progress of what your accomplishing overall with your off the grid home. I can’t wait for the next vid.
Roofing always takes longer than we think. I too am presently working on a metal roof on our homestead (at a MUCH lower pitch-- we don't have snow). It's a tough job. Props to you both! Love your channel!
It's a ton of work. Every cut is a custom fit, takes allot of time. Roof looks GREAT. Im impressed. STAY SAFE, Videos are very entertaining and shows what hard work can accomplish‼️👍👍 Vinny 🇺🇸
I love when new people jump into man baskets, all the different shades people turn is fun to see. That was just a whittle 45', the real fun is when you get up to 135' 😂 Much respect for being uncomfortable in a machine but still doing the job safely and properly. Y'all do look great in your harnesses too 😍
That dormer added a lot to the entrance, but man, it's like building a room or a house on a house, very detailed work! You're doing great. You should be very proud.
I have just arrived at your channel through T and A after their visit to you. Starting at the beginning of your build and am seriously loving each episode. And love to see how confident you both are on camera. Your work ethic is epic. Lesley x🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
@@markgosser9578 I was going to say a nibbler too. I couldn't watch without thinking of the hand cuts. :-O Nibblers leave a smooth cut edge too. I own a set. A little difficult on the ridges ... but ... fast.
Hello from germany , watching ur vids always brings a smile to my face . Im actualy doing metal roofing like 3/4 of the year , i never understood why u would drill holes where most of the water flows . But over here companys are selling that kind of fixation too and they even have a license . But ur roof is pretty steep , dun think that should b a problem . A lil hint : if ur doin that kind of fixation method , u can use the screwing points , to screw a hook ( i made one myself with rubber protection for the surface ) ontop of the sheets . Now u can use ladders aswel and skip the odd lift i dont like to use either ( cant reach everywhere , have to get out anyway , the darn thing doesnt stand still , have to watch to not bang in the sheets ) . Saves some money for the lift too , just keep in mind that u need other screws and either wooden ladders or tape some "presenting ribbon" ( google translation ) underneath to not scratch the surface . U can buy all of that stuff on the inet too , prop in ur local tool/metalshop if u tell them what u want. I rather do it myself , u atleast know what ur using . If u gonna install stuff later on into the roof ( ventilation , sun collector , chimney ) or have to repair anything , u can use the hook and ladder instead of having to rent the demons tool again . Btw im construction worker since 30 years , mainly roofs . Wish ur family good luck for the future !
Erin & Josh, you both may feel that you had not met your goal in completing the dormer roof, but you both are safe, that is main concern here, and life does through us a few curve balls and delays, but here you once again knocked it out of the park, I mean just start at the beginning of the video, superb quality content, homeruns all around here, 👍👌❤🇨🇦
I give you two all the credit in the world. I also don't like heights and I can't even imagine doing what you are doing on that entry way roof. Best of luck on the remainder of the build.
all in all, ya dun good, kids! With all your doing, this is a minor speed bump on the road to success. it looms large right now, but, when it's done, the frustration of this day will be but a memory. So, give each other a hug and high-five for what you got done, play with the kids, eat a good a meal. tomorrow's another day. Much love from the upper end of the Appalachians.
FYI ...the purlin bearing leg (the bigger side) goes on the bottom of the roofing steel at each lap. It looks as if you made the common mistake of thinking that more coverage keeps you from leaks. Your roofing metal is designed this way. I hope you never have a problem because of improper lapping because of the steeper pitch roof. On another note you both are awesome. I'm really jealous of the partner you have to help with every project of the build. Keep up the great work!
Hey guys!! My name is Lee and I am a retired VET with a carpenters background. .First thing that I would like to say is; you two are great together and I have so much admiration and respect for what you are doing!!! Josh, you better keep that lady close and remind her EVERYDAY how much she means to you!!!! Erin is doing an awesome job and she has so much gusto and I love that she is not afraid to climb up a 20ft ladder, or grab a 4x8 sheet of OSB, and even pull pipe right there with you and she is a LOOKER!!!! Would like to be able to chat with you guys (via text, call, or FB Messenger) I am about to do the same thing (moving from Louisiana to Northeastern Tenn) that you are doing. Live in an RV and build from the ground up!!!! I am so looking forward to it. I would like to ask some questions and maybe help me with some of my steps regarding Solar, Internet, electrical, and so forth. You guys are doing an amazing job and I wish the two of you the very best!!!! GREAT JOB!!!!! Semper Fi!!!!!
Josh and Erin great to see people like you following your dream for you and your family. We in America can take pride that we have the freedom to follow our dream as most do not even know that, nor know that in other countrys you do not have this freedom or opportunity.

Jay Jorgensen Congratulations. You’ve built others dreams now you get to build your dream home.
Good luck!
Go for it mate.
How much is that amount of land where you are? In the uk that amount of land would cost a fortune
Good for you! We’ve remodeled three houses and just moved to our fourth...I have some great ideas 😊I really would have liked to build a house but my husband didn’t want to put that much effort into it, probably that whole job thing.
I like how you guys keep it real. Building a structure doesnt go to plan all the time. Things lile this happen. I love how positive you still are and find a way to still make it work.
I love how well the 2 of you work together. Everyone should be so lucky to have a partner like the 2 of you have.
Imagine how much faster it would’ve been with a man helping though
And I'm sure that would be fine if you were life bonded to another man...
This couple will have these memories, good and tough, until they don't have the capacity to remember anything. Way beyond their grandchildren's birth hopefully.
In all my construction projects I have found it generally takes 3 times as long as I thought it would for the steps involved and will cost about 4 times as much as you think lol. You two are doing a great job. My favorite "TV" show lol!
Josh, you are the man! Erin, so happy you overcome your fear... brave girl!
Erin is a MACHINE! ❤❤❤
Josh, though... He looks like a toy (even though I'm probably older than his mother). LOL!
Yes...you guys will be alright...you lost this battle but you won our hearts...nearing to 200k subscribers ..WOW..a wild & wonderful feat.😘
When your kids grow up and look back at these videos they're gonna be so proud and so thankful
Bless your hearts; could see you were not comfortable the first day up. It really doesn't get nerve racking until you are fully extended up in the Cherry Picker in winds.
What's really fun is the safety training when you get to find out the function of your safety equipment and have to test your harness and lifeline; there was only one way of doing that!
That class years before made trying my first (and only) bungee cord jump from 75feet on my 41st birthday a little less scary once the attendant gave me a push off the platform. I had my eyes open for the subsequent 4 recoils, the first taking all the way back up to the platform. What a blast.
My youngest son wanted to try the jump but would not until Mom went first.
The things we do for our kids! It was worth it. He made 3 jumps and lost his slight fear of heights.
All the sheet metal I've helped install has called for valley/flat area screw placement which makes more sense, more secure and is less damaging to metal as well as requiring shorter screws.
Don't be discouraged, y'all are doing good. Take a breath and pat yourselves on the back.
For two people who are not comfortable working at height you did very very well. Love this channel. Watching from the UK.
I have been following your videos from the very start, you have given me many enjoyable moments in the building of your family home, the joking between yourselves just shows how well you work and live together, long may it reign.
Because of injuries received serving with the British Para’s I spend most of my time lying on my bed and my iPad is a lifeline. Watching your videos gives me great enjoyment more than you can imagine, long may you send them.
I know you are from a different country but to me you both are friends from the next farm.

Trevor Tong Thank you for your service.
All the best, Trevor. Take care of yourself.
As somebody who , for years drove and operated a few truck mounted , "MEWP 's" that would do from 34 metres (115 ft ) ..to..72 Metres (240 ft ) straight up and with a good radius, I have massive admiration for people who really don't like heights but still attempt to do their best...just keep on keeping on ....Love it.
I love watching y’all because of the way you are with one another. You’re honest, humble, and so real with each other. I love it. Keep up the good work!! God bless.
What you guys are doing is truly intriguing. You're running away from the city's rat race. At the same time, churning out addictive content.
"Raising a family in the woods" ain't that the dream of every 2nd person on earth.
Don't get discouraged guys.. You will get it all finished.. You both have done an amazing job on your home.. God bless...
I fully understand your pain on up/down the ladder all day eats into time. Installed a 8'x20'ft metal roof by myself. Your home is lovely and I wish your family the best in completing the exterior before the snows start.
Love the ufda! We had a dear friend that lived to be 96 and she used that term for many responses. She was Norwegian and a very courageous lady, loved and miss her so much. Loved hearing that word said with just the right amount of "ufda" 🤗
You did rock and roll this!! Just getting in that contraption is a victory! 👍
Props to you two for doing as much as you could within a time crunch. Tough work on a flat, let alone a slope.
I am sitting here in Western Australia watching you both working so hard and I still think you are amazing. thankyou so much for sharing.
You two are an awesome couple! I've been binge watching from the beginning. Enjoy your awesome off-grid life! I'm so jelly!
Josh, I agree with your opening statements. I am sure you realize how lucky you are. In a previous post your wife shared a picture of you in your punk rock phase and she said how her dad didn't care because he knew how much you two cared for each other. I found that to be so touching and very sweet. You are a wonderful couple and thank you for sharing your journey.
Stop beating yourselves up because you got a lot done! You guys rock!
You two are amazing and hard working people. I love your channel. Always a pleasure watching. Stay safe.
I'm very proud of you two. You did right by not drilling thru The ridges that is asking for a leak. They are there for a reason. Love y'all see ya next time😘😘😘

Yes!
I'm with you Josh I haven't seen anybody with a harness look that good either.
Can't stop looking at your videos ... you're so inspiring ! Great respect for the two of you and beside I have to admit that the charm, courage and power of "wonder lady" Erin keeps on attracting me each day to RUclips ... Respect !

Safe and sure progress is a good way to go. Make your daily goals doable and manageable. Catch ya on the next video.
The one thing I've learned from my projects. The time estimate is always twice what you think. Take your time and do it right, it's your home after all.
Greetings from Sweden, hope all is well. Now I will sit down and enjoy this episode.... have a nice weekend and see y'all very soon
the build is a marathon not a sprint , you get done what you get done and what you get done you're making sure you do it properly to the best of your abilities.
Keep on keeping on and before you know it this stage of the build will be done and you will be starting the next section of your house, but, all in good time :)
I am continually amazed by the challenges you both are willing to take on to accomplish your dream. I know first hand how scary lifts can be and you guys took on the challenge regardless and didn't give up.

Its good to see you guys having so much Fun. Just
Remember to always be
Safe. As always good work
Guys. And God bless all of
You.
You conquered your fear of the lift, got a ton of steep roofing installed...I call that a win!
You may not have completed all you had hoped for, but what you completed you did so safely. Great work, as usual, by a fantastic couple.
I also love the way you work as a team.
What a wonderful place God made. Stay with God 🙏 Hugs to the channel. send a save to Brazil.
My wife is a metal roof installer (don’t know the English word for it) here in Sweden and you guys are doing it correctly when fastening the roof. :) Always screw in the valley never on the ridges.

My family loves you guys! Can’t wait for your videos every week. I love how the two of you interact and your kids are so sweet. You’re doing a great job guys!
Me too! Don't forget the rest of the house, I wanna see you do this next half!!
Screw placement is absolutely correct/perfect! Great job you two!
Holey Moley, that is some difficult work on those steep roofs. You guys are awesome !! Glad it all went safely. :-)
Good work folks.
What you do is amazing. I'm looking forward to the inside finish. Please take your time and make long videos.
Hi. Jesteście wspaniali i jesteście wspaniałą ekipą, we wspólnej pracy!
Lubię Was oglądać i podziwiam.
Pozdrawiam serdecznie.:)
There are so many of us stepping out trying to reduce our footprint and cost. Your videos, while you're learning you're teaching us:)! Thank you.
That machine definitely made that job possible. Thank goodness that nobody got hurt and that you guys was able to get it knocked out. I have family in West Virginia and I am thinking one day I will move there cause the cost of living here in Baltimore Maryland is just insane.
Be careful guys..safety first 👀
Hey you've got it wrapped for weather(it's all good), getting in a hurry when tired and working up high can be a recipe for a trip to the ER. If you can get a harness attachment to the A-frame ridge, using the ladder later on will be alot more "enjoyable".....

Fantastic effort Josh and Erin. Yes those lifts can be a little scary at first but after awhile it becomes second nature. Great job. Enjoy the day. Ray L
One little red light on the mountain in the background , bummer , light pollution in your beautiful view . But like the man says “ it is what it is , wada ya gonna do “ still beautiful ⛰
Don't beat yourselves up. You have got where you are by , slow & steady .
Just love your relationship. Just so in tune with each other, you are like twins. Just awesome.
Guy's never change!!! Love the back and forth banter. Your blog shows real couple working together mistakes and all. Watch the comment's about do this or that some no nothing of they are talking about. Some Guy in mom's basement blowing smoke. (ICC Inspector Retired.)
Just remember speed isn’t as important as safety... Steady goes it and you’ll win this race!👍
Of all the u tube videos I have watch. I am glad to see you all using a lift. Working smarter and harder. No worries about the screws.
Lot of Love from INDIA to the family. i salute your work..it inspire me. and in your old age, when you will see these video, you will feel proud on this work.
Awesome intro!
It was a good fight, nothing to feel bad about.
Love the way you two work, joke, and have fun together!
"One day at a time" my friends,!!!!!!! You guys are awesome to watch!!! GBY
I absolutely love the A frame house that you chose to build..I am wishing you the very best..can't wait to see the finished home.
Chin up guys. You learned how long it takes to do this. That is a plus! You are an amazing couple. Keep up the great work. You inspire me to be better.
slow and steady wins the race......dont worry be happy...you guys are doing great!!!
I've got to say you guys rock! Really enjoying your progress, you're doing so well! It's good to see genuine people on RUclips.
Hardest working people I've ever seen, absolutely amazing
It does differ from snow country to non-snow where the screws go! With that pitch it really doesn't matter!Looking good!
I wish you all the best in the success of that project. You have already won many battle.

I can’t wait for the next vid.
Such a great and powerful couple.
Roofing always takes longer than we think. I too am presently working on a metal roof on our homestead (at a MUCH lower pitch-- we don't have snow). It's a tough job. Props to you both! Love your channel!
Always look forward to your new videos
It's a ton of work. Every cut is a custom fit, takes allot of time. Roof looks GREAT. Im impressed. STAY SAFE, Videos are very entertaining and shows what hard work can accomplish‼️👍👍 Vinny 🇺🇸
It will get done. Looks the treat. Those valley flashings look mighty.
I love when new people jump into man baskets, all the different shades people turn is fun to see. That was just a whittle 45', the real fun is when you get up to 135' 😂 Much respect for being uncomfortable in a machine but still doing the job safely and properly. Y'all do look great in your harnesses too 😍
That dormer added a lot to the entrance, but man, it's like building a room or a house on a house, very detailed work! You're doing great. You should be very proud.
Love you guys! You have mad skills! I'm very envious of what you are doing! Keep up the good work!
You did your best & your work speaks for itself.nuff said.youll get it
Cool you guys!
The well-being of your family and the health of the kids!
Hello from Russia!
I have just arrived at your channel through T and A after their visit to you. Starting at the beginning of your build and am seriously loving each episode. And love to see how confident you both are on camera. Your work ethic is epic. Lesley x🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Thanks again guys because you two are perfect together.
Just a tip:
Reverse the blade on our circular saw and you can rip tin instead of using snips.😉
You can also buy or rent nibblers.
There is Sheetmetal shears attachment for your drill that cost about $40. It works. We use it all the time in the HVAC field.

I was going to say a nibbler too.
I couldn't watch without thinking of the hand cuts. :-O
Nibblers leave a smooth cut edge too. I own a set. A little difficult on the ridges ... but ... fast.
grinder with zip disk is the easiest and cheapest option
Hello from germany , watching ur vids always brings a smile to my face . Im actualy doing metal roofing like 3/4 of the year , i never understood why u would drill holes where most of the water flows . But over here companys are selling that kind of fixation too and they even have a license . But ur roof is pretty steep , dun think that should b a problem . A lil hint : if ur doin that kind of fixation method , u can use the screwing points , to screw a hook ( i made one myself with rubber protection for the surface ) ontop of the sheets . Now u can use ladders aswel and skip the odd lift i dont like to use either ( cant reach everywhere , have to get out anyway , the darn thing doesnt stand still , have to watch to not bang in the sheets ) . Saves some money for the lift too , just keep in mind that u need other screws and either wooden ladders or tape some "presenting ribbon" ( google translation ) underneath to not scratch the surface . U can buy all of that stuff on the inet too , prop in ur local tool/metalshop if u tell them what u want. I rather do it myself , u atleast know what ur using . If u gonna install stuff later on into the roof ( ventilation , sun collector , chimney ) or have to repair anything , u can use the hook and ladder instead of having to rent the demons tool again . Btw im construction worker since 30 years , mainly roofs . Wish ur family good luck for the future !
Erin & Josh, you both may feel that you had not met your goal in completing the dormer roof, but you both are safe, that is main concern here, and life does through us a few curve balls and delays, but here you once again knocked it out of the park, I mean just start at the beginning of the video, superb quality content, homeruns all around here, 👍👌❤🇨🇦
Nice work guys. Better take your time and do it safely than rushing and endangering yourselves!
I give you two all the credit in the world. I also don't like heights and I can't even imagine doing what you are doing on that entry way roof. Best of luck on the remainder of the build.
You guys are quite the team and you’re funny to watch thanks for all the great RUclips content.🇺🇸
After you're done, you can build another house for yourself, this one's MINE. I love the look and location.
all in all, ya dun good, kids! With all your doing, this is a minor speed bump on the road to success. it looms large right now, but, when it's done, the frustration of this day will be but a memory. So, give each other a hug and high-five for what you got done, play with the kids, eat a good a meal. tomorrow's another day. Much love from the upper end of the Appalachians.
Y'all did well given the difficulty of the task. Glad it was done safely !
FYI ...the purlin bearing leg (the bigger side) goes on the bottom of the roofing steel at each lap. It looks as if you made the common mistake of thinking that more coverage keeps you from leaks. Your roofing metal is designed this way. I hope you never have a problem because of improper lapping because of the steeper pitch roof.
On another note you both are awesome. I'm really jealous of the partner you have to help with every project of the build.
Keep up the great work!
Hey guys!! My name is Lee and I am a retired VET with a carpenters background. .First thing that I would like to say is; you two are great together and I have so much admiration and respect for what you are doing!!! Josh, you better keep that lady close and remind her EVERYDAY how much she means to you!!!! Erin is doing an awesome job and she has so much gusto and I love that she is not afraid to climb up a 20ft ladder, or grab a 4x8 sheet of OSB, and even pull pipe right there with you and she is a LOOKER!!!! Would like to be able to chat with you guys (via text, call, or FB Messenger) I am about to do the same thing (moving from Louisiana to Northeastern Tenn) that you are doing. Live in an RV and build from the ground up!!!! I am so looking forward to it. I would like to ask some questions and maybe help me with some of my steps regarding Solar, Internet, electrical, and so forth. You guys are doing an amazing job and I wish the two of you the very best!!!! GREAT JOB!!!!! Semper Fi!!!!!
