As someone who just built a house and completed about 75% of the inside myself i have three things for you to expect:
1. You will just about go over budget on everything if someone else is doing the work. Me doing most of the inside work is what saved my budget.
2. If you want something done right you have to do it yourself.
3. Just know that when you are having the long stressful nights of working on it it will be well worth it in the end.
Very wise words there! Thanks for watching!
So excited for ya'll! Carol and I built our forever home 4 years ago and yes, as others have said, it's rare to stay on/under budget. We were about 26k over on our 3100sqft house. But, we wouldn't change a thing.
So much concrete! What an exciting day. I am so happy for you guys. This is going to be a fun video series and I can’t wait to see it finished.
The good news is that it should make a better foundation!
We just broke ground on our Garage/pole barn. Both Helene and Debby came over our property-the eye of Helene came right over us. Spent a lot of time cleaning up and moving trees to the burn pile. You guys be safe, cheers, and blessings. Oh btw, we have been lucky, underbudget at this point!
Hopefully that's the last of the storms for the year! Glad to hear you're under budget so far!
We're in in Arkansas, and my Dad had their house built they laughed at him, wanting to put hurricane straps installed, and he told them it would help on the tornadoes we get around here, looks like You guy's will have a nice homestead when done
Tornadoes are scary! Thanks for watching.
Very exciting, but man that's expensive! Fingers crossed for the rest of the build. We're renovating, I think new build would have been easier. Cheers Mark & Mari at the Cay. 👍🌴🇺🇸🇨🇦🍻
It's so expensive but hopefully it pays off in the long run. Thanks for watching....much more to come!
Nice looking property and a great pour! You guys have a pretty big house there, these days many people are downsizing for retirement.
We've bit off quite a bit with this property at this stage of life for sure. Thanks for watching.
The pour went very well and they did a great job and the dream house is closer to being a reality.
It was a big step forward after months of delays. Thanks for watching!
The slab look great. When the real professionals do a great job.
There's a follow up video to this that might change your mind!
Great start - We had a house built just over 2 years ago. Plan at least 10% overage on the cost. Good luck to you two.
Everything is so expensive nowadays! Thanks for watching!
Congratulations!!! Looks like a great start to the project (even though a little over budget). Glad things worked out and your dream home is under way.
We were surprised at the overrun, but glad to be under way!
Brad and Deb.... I am so happy for you both! This thing is really happening, and you both deserve this. THanks for sharing your dreams and behind the scenes footage. I love the Piney Grove channel!
Thank you for the kind words. We're excited to share this journey!
Another great video guys! I know this is an exciting time for you. But it’s also an exciting time for us the viewer as well.👍🏻
Thanks for watching! We're glad you're enjoying the ride.
BIG Congrats to y'all! I'm sure by now y'all are seeing walls go up and getting to do the walk through each day! As soon as you opened yourselves up to RUclips and FB, people will watch and you'll have all kinds of encouragement and unfortunately some negativity. You will have all kinds of ideas, suggestions, and the infamous "you should have done it this way" remarks. Just stay the course, lean on your contractor and keep very consistent and productive communication. Building a home is a rollercoaster of emotions and there will be days when you're on cloud 9 and days that you just feel defeated, but y'all got this! Besides, when you're building the house that will be your forever house, budgets are meant to be broken here and there! ;) It's much cheaper to make changes now than after it's all put together! Very excited for y'all and soak it all in and enjoy watching what has been a dream become a reality!
We appreciate your support and good advice!
Looking more and more like home❤
Congratulations on getting started. It will be awesome to see your dream come to life!
Thanks! We're excited, too.
Awesome to see the Dream coming to life!
Thanks Brother!
Gets exciting from here!
Yessir! We are editing as fast as we can....so much more coming!
it is going to be a beautiful home. here in SE Louisiana all the water lines are piped from the ceiling. the issue i have is what i call pex flex mostly during cooler temps. AS the warmer water flows and expands the pex you can hear it. sometimes it sounds like something is knocking on the ceiling. other than thats its fine
There is always a down side! Thanks for watching.
Nice project, that 5 1/2” extra concrete on top definitely boosted the cost. Poured my new shop last year. Watching to see the progress. I had extra forms ready for the extra concrete left over.
They filled in and packed when they raised it, but you can't "redo" disturbed ground! Thanks for watching....definitely more to this story next week!
Congratulations! Our retirement home is tiny at 1,600 feet. But it's plenty for us. Of course that doesn't count the attached four car, tractor, excavator, and two cars really, garage.
1600 isn't tiny! My parents house is 2 bedroom/1600 and it's got plenty of room! Thanks for watching.
Congrats! One day closer to moving in!! - Best, J. Andre. / Old Iron Acres
We are ready! Thanks for watching.
Did your contractor apply curing agent on the slab, if not run a water sprinkler on the slab to keep it from drying out too fast.
It rained the next day!
Brad and Deb
AWESOME Video, Progress in Your Forever Home!!
I Greatly Enjoyed watching!
Those concrete workers must have been "exhausted" by the time it was all done! So Brad, how many hours did they spend on this concrete pour?
I'm surprised all the forms were already removed and you were both walking around; KING & QUEEN, of Your New Home!
I'm Excited to see next week's video!
GOD BLESS YOU BOTH
I think they left around the 12 hour mark at 4 or 5pm. I worked until dark on the clean-up. Long day for them for sure.....and they have to wake up and do it all over again on another job! Thanks for watching.
@@PineyGroveHomestead Long day for them. But, Brad, you continued to work on your cleanup. Just Amazing.
Thanks for your response.
Enjoy your day
@@PineyGroveHomestead Now you can put a couple chairs out on your "Front Porch" and sit & enjoy your Forever View!
GOD Bless
this is so awsome!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thanks Adam. It's been a long hard road getting to this point!
@@PineyGroveHomestead its so bitter sweet to see it all come together!
Off by 30 yards? Wow, that seems excessive.
Turned in our application for permit yesterday in Okaloosa county after 3 years of planning, clearing, planning, estimating, planning, re-evaluating, re-planning, etc. 😂
Does not breed confidence in the remaining quotes. 😢
@frankwrogg2515 sounds like a govt contract. Underbid to get the job, then add 50-100% while under construction.
thats what i was thinking.
Congratulations. We feel your pain. Did you see this video where we initially got denied?!! ruclips.net/video/mxcfQL-4FRs/видео.html
@@PineyGroveHomestead sure did. The wife and I watch your episodes together. It makes us feel not so alone in our endeavor!
Unless the soil around the foundation was wet/soft, pumper truck was not needed. Was it in the original bid? Using a pumper truck can reduce labor and man power costs. $1,000.00 is still money.
I think the pumper truck was $1400. Thanks for watching!
No rebar in that slab pour. Its going end up cracking pretty badly over time. A good concrete crew would have back filed the forms with gravel to prevent leakage
Your going to want external outlets for various needs: Contractors so they do work outside during maintenance remodels, cutting lumber, to avoid getting all that dust inside. Generator, etc. For water, you could install ground mount hydrants (usually sold as frost free hydrants). Even during construction you probably want contractors cutting material outside, like cutting tile for kitchen\baths. Outlets & faucets can be made water tight. Use metal boxes and seal up using ductseal or 3m Fire putty. You can make it look better by using PVC trim around outlets & faucets that is flush with the siding. I have my outlet boxes recessed into the PVC trim so only the outlet cover protrudes. House is very airtight & I have to use an ERV to bring in fresh air.
If your worried about water problems, The best option is to uses 18" to 24" roof overhangs so the walls are protected. Large overhangs will also reduce cooling costs since they provide shade on the walls & windows. Even better if you install a vented metal roof system which cooler air is draw from the soffits & exits a vented ridge cap. meanwhile keep the attic space in the conditioned space.
What ever you budgeted for your home, plan on nearly double the cost for a custom home, unless you want the contractors to cut corners at ever turn. The price you get quoted from builders is always low balled in order for you agree for the project. They will typically tack on "unexpected" costs as the build progresses & also install the bottom of the barrel materials (ie OSB & cheap vapor barrier) instead of the ZIP system.
There is rebar in the footers. Thanks for watching!
@@PineyGroveHomestead The slab needs rebar. The thin wire really does not prevent large cracks from forming.
I hope you added 20% to the bottom line for overage.
at least!
At least. Maybe 25% with prices these days.
Isn't bricks cheaper than concrete??
Stem walls still need a footer and they are complicated. I "think" a monolithic slab is the cheapest foundation you can get.
If I'm following your numbers correctly, the contractor missed the estimate of concrete needed by 50%. That seems really off, especially if you hadn't requested any changes from the plan the estimate was based on. I would see a 10-15% overrun, but 50% seems high. Hope they aren't that far off on all the other estimates. Maybe I'm just doing my math wrong. More importantly, congrats on starting your dream build.
Budget was 79, original order was 60, final was 84 yards. We weren't happy with that, but happy to get started and hopeful everything else comes in ON BUDGET! Thanks for watching.
@@PineyGroveHomesteadnot on budget for the rest in today's times..iid waited for the election to come before starting the build.
@@Southalabamaoutdoors At least lumber prices have come down!
❤️👍🙋♂️
Thanks for watching!
That is a very big difference on yards of concrete. Something is wrong, bad math from someone. You can not be a good builder and be that far off.
As an excavation contractor or a concrete poured I think I would be ashamed of myself and ask not to be videoed.
Wait until you see next week's video.... Always something!
OK I will bite....why???
