@bajacaliforniarealestate1455 - absolutely... for FRC panels and very little support equipment, that's quick. What's the finished density of your panels?
Hi Claire, no it's a very bright house except for the back guest bedroom, I should have put a larger window in that room. I'm thinking of changing it. It is a comfortable beautiful home with a multi-million dollar view!
Hi, I loved the video. I've been planning to build a house in mgo sip for a while. I just have a question about the video. In the largest room that can be seen, the living room will be the safest, it can be seen that they put some metal beams to support the ceiling. That is true?. Could you tell me what kind of beam they are? Thanks a lot. I love the video. Another video on plumbing and electricity on those houses would be interesting.
Hi Javi, yes they used a steel beams. I don't have a video on the plumbing and electricity but the panels use a tool to carve out a conduit to input the wires. Thanks for commenting on the video. If you are planing a home using SIPs we sell the materials to build them in your location. We are not approved in every location so I'd need to know more about where you want to build if that is your goal. all the best. Diane
They are a proprietary blend of concrete fiber cement. They come white, but after we install them we plaster them in a special covering which we manufacture and then paint them if you want to. The video does not show that part. It only shows the installation. Where are you located? Hope this answer helps you.
@@user-ty2uz4gb7v We are in Mexico and are not approved quite yet for export to the US. Beware of a SIP manufacturer in the south of Mexico. Just a friendly warning.
@@user-ty2uz4gb7v yes, our panels are hurricane and earthquake proof as well. Wish I could get them for you but we are not ready yet for US sales. Think about coming to Mexico and build here. It’s a good investment!
There is no wood or metal in the SIPS? Is there any outgassing of VOC's? What is the company who makes the panels? I would like to investigate. Were the floors and roof also made of SIPS? Ultimately, what finish did you put over the floors? Thanks!
Hi Syrena, for these types of details we would need to have a phone conversation. You can email me to set up a time if you'd like to do that. diane@bajacalrealestate.com
Hi Chris, no we use a special formula of Concrete Fiber Cement Board. OSB has toxic glue and burns. So any fire zone location is advised not to use OSB. Our product is a proprietary formula and eco-friendly, fireproof, waterproof, termite proof etc. If you are in Mexico and need SIPs, I can provide them. If you are in the US or another county other than Latin America, I may be able to refer you to a good manufacturer, but most will use OSB, which is a shame. All the best to you.
looks like at the end you tarred the joints and placed some special kind of rolled up roofing underlayment? can you share what kind of tar and what kind of roofing underlayment?
Sorry Chris, I just saw your question. Obviously I'm not a social media expert to say the least. I don't know the name of the product they used on the roof. I apologize.
It was a "modified bitumen torched down system." Great product, however, that install looks sketchy. They should have nailed down a "base sheet" before torching directly to the SIPS plywood!! Notice the "tarred joints" bled through the finished product. That's a BIG no no!! The system will likely fail in those areas pronto. I could be wrong and this could be some funky new "approved" install, but I'm pretty sure it isn't. Anyway, Hope that helps...
@@timphillips8966 Hi Tim and Chis. our SIP panels are not made with plywood. We have no wood in the system at all, thus the fire-resistant claim. Our panels are made of a concrete fiber cement board with a specific formula. The roof has not failed in over a year, but I have had other mistakes that have been fixed as my original contractors used some crew members who were not trained in SIP building. The timelapse video however still shows how fast you can build a SIP home. I am happy to show the home to anyone who would like to see it. It is fabulous, warm in the winter and cool in the summer. Let me know if I can help you further. Sorry that I am not always on my channel and don't see messages. My bad!
@@bajacaliforniarealestate1455 Interesting to hear this SIP system uses concrete fiber cement board. Sounds like something similar to what's found in showers prior to tiling? Also sounds much heavier than plywood? Doesn't really matter as a typical SIP install uses an on site crane to drop the panels in place, although these panels seem to be pretty light (they don't appear to be struggling to lift them). I'm a fan of these systems. As far as the roof membrane install, I'd be surprised if the manufacturer would approve that install. Typically, going over a concrete surface you'd spray an asphalt primer & allow to dry before torching the membrane down. In this case I would've used an aluminum tape on all the joints (same stuff used to seal metal gas water heater pipe vents), then prime the entire surface, let dry, then torch membrane down. I was a roofing contractor in So Cal for 25 years (retired now) and used that product on commercial, residential, and industrial projects. VERY familiar with it.
Actually I can't remember. But the house is 40' x 30' with an additional 10' decl. If you look at the roof again you may be able to figure how big the roof panels are. Sorry, I don't remember this info.
@@mightyaemthe cost to build this home in today's dollars is $135 USD per sq. ft. plus the cost of the land and preparation of the land with a septic system and a water tank.
Just saw this Diane, are you the rep for the SIP company , the construction company or just the realtor for the home? Does the sip company or you have a website?
Hi Mike, I an the rep for the company. This is my home, but I sell the product and the building services. Call me if you'd like more info. 619-547-6621
There are interior photos on my real estate website for a price of $289,000. I do not want to sell, but I use the house as a sample of the materials and construction methods. I'm loving it. I just wanted a simple Mediterranean style white stucco house but with high ceilings and large windows overlooking the ocean. I'm loving it.
@@lisastewartrealestate This depends in your drawings. There is no average that we feel comfortable quoting as the material costs are going up all the time. I would calculate between $100 USD and $150 USD per square foot as an average to start with. All depends on what type of windows, doors, kitchen, bathrooms, flooring and other items. Sorry I can't be more precise.
Right Russel, when you have a whole back wall of windows overlooking the ocean with a constant breeze we don't need anything else for fresh air. If those people who build don't have that then they would put in equipment for fresh ventilation!
@@bajacaliforniarealestate1455 normally every person who is building such house for him self (and have brains ofcource), surely is installing,ventilation/recuperation system, if not then for sure he is idiot
The whole back side of the house is windows. Plus 2 on each side. I didn't put windows on the front because i wasn't sure if i would add more square footage. I don't need it so I didn't. I personally like it without windows on the street side. More private.

Thank you so much!
I've never seen a SIPs system go up this slow. What panels were you using?
We used our own SIPs made with Fiber Cement Board panels, 6 men, 8 days, no crane or scaffolding. Most consider this a fast build.
@bajacaliforniarealestate1455 - absolutely... for FRC panels and very little support equipment, that's quick. What's the finished density of your panels?
It seems all the windows are at one end of the house. Will it not make it rather dark inside?

HI Javi, yes we used steel beams. The house is very secure according to the engineer. All the best to you.
what was used for the foundation. it looks like beams that fit the sip for the floor. is this correct?
nice build
Glad you think so!
Thanks so very much!
Are your sip clad in some engineered material like Hardie board or is it wood? Otherwise why is it white?
