Cost / Price of framing a small affordable house
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 сен 2024
- In this video I talk about how much materials and labor were to frame this house to this point. The price listed in the video includes all the exterior and interior walls framing as well as the roof / rafters and all the sheathing and house wrap and felt paper.
Greetings all,
Cost to frame the whole house and all the exterior house wrap and felt paper was $20,900. The gables were not finished being framed in the vid but that is within the price I mentioned.
Next week comes the roof price.
Please share my vids, I would greatly appreciate it, since I'm trying to grow the channel.
Take care.
Lawn Bear I was about to ask the exact same thing.
Lawn Bear I made them, and I will have them available soon.
Tony look below :)
Migraine Craftsman nice you definitely have a customer here.
Migraine Craftsman I would love a blue print as well
That story about how you started this construction business should be a whole separate video with more details.
I’m pretty sure that would be a very interesting video 🧐🤔
You are amazing to show all this work and the prices- even though now they are more expensive. I appreciate your intention to help people understand how to have a home!
Did the cost of framing go up a lot? I feel like 21,000 is a lot for a house of that size. I suppose it could be higher cost per square foot due to less floor square footage? Looks like they do great work though. How much was materials?
I'm like you. I love watching new home construction. There is something special about being able to see all the wood framing that speaks to the inner dreamer in all of us.
I have finally saved up enough cash to build this year. I love your videos as NO ONE shares cost nor so much detail in the actual build. Keep them coming
Thx, keep saving for your materials and keep an eye on future content youll love for what I have planned.
You’re not weird for being you!! You bring into this world that only you gave give, no one else so you’re super awesome ! Enjoyed the video 😊
Thank you, you are a sweet Melody to my ears in the comment section, see what I did there? :)
New sub, I work as a carpenter in NC and really enjoy your channel. I am also a stickler for a clean job site, and you do very well my friend! Thanks for what you do and keep it up!
Welcome neighbor, I'm at the Murphy Lowes all the time :)
@@MigraineCraftsman I'm just north of Winston-Salem. Just wanted to say I love your builds!
Migraine Craftsman Murphy Lowe’s I’ve been there. My sister lives in Robbinsville nc... do you ever work in that area ?? I live in western Kentucky....been up to the new casino too many times, 😂 lol.
That sky is so blue! The house is looking good. 😊
You give great detail. Thank you. I'm not building a home but love to see how this turns out
Thank you :)
My grandfather was a builder in the 40s till 2009 he was a boss he did plumbing and electrical and the foundation my grandma was the sales lady
I’m so happy I found your channel!
Welcome aboard!
omg im so happy you posted
/cheers
I'm happy you commented!
Great video! I really enjoyed the explanation of the materials and the details!
It looks great man, it's gonna sell in about 5 minutes based on that view through those windows alone!
If it all goes well (closing) house is sold already. Just have to finish it now.
We are enjoying this video from Arkansas
man, that view is gorgeous.
Nice to see ya around Reef
That’s a pretty good price! Thank you for sharing!
Always enjoy your thought added to the video. The rafters really look nice compared to trusses . I also enjoyed the videos of house designs you make. You always apologize for old software but I think it works just fine to show us how it will come out. The 3 bedroom really was to our liking especially when you added the extra windows in the bedrooms. If you applied the loft storage like you did in this home, we feel it works out about right. Thanks again for your work to make these videos and educate builders as to the actual current price of your area.
Thank you for sharing 🙏❤️
/cheers
This content is absolute golden.
It gives me hope that one day I would at least be able to afford a small house.
Keep it up and good luck to you sir 👍
Save your moneys work on your credit score and you can get it done. Even better if you can frame and do some work yourself you can save a boat load of cash.
Thank you for the advice. Already working on it. I believe I could set up my own plumbing system. From what I already saw is the easiest thing to do for me. But no electric stuff it’s way more confusing and stakes are too high. But nonetheless I appreciate your advice and will keep gaining more knowledge from your videos. Thanks again. 👍
Looking good, very nice. Enjoying the progress.
Thank you for sharing your great works!!!
Regarding having several carpenters on site you should check out the “crazy framer” on RUclips. He works alone and rapidly. I watched other RUclips channels with multiple workers on site and it seems as though one is always watching rather than working. Keep up the good work! As an aside and not to be snobbish, when building small houses on small lots how can you be certain that the neighbors are as caring about their properties as you are about your build. Any concern that people that build small are on very tight budgets that might influence upkeep, maintenance, improvements etc
I watch crazy framer from time to time, hes entertaining to watch. As for the neighbors that is another story all together can't control what people do, play nice and hopefully they treat you in kind.
Another great build! Keep um coming!
Thx Bear
Thanks for sharing your videos, they’re such an inspiration for me to follow a dream of mine, which is learning how to build homes.
/cheers, make your dream reality, because it is possible it just takes work and research.
Thanks for another good episode. 👍😁
/cheers
I really appreciate and enjoy your videos, perfect little homes
Wish i felt about hights like u do, good thing In Constuction industry
:)
Hi my name is Jordan White and im 15 years old from Milwaukee Wisconsin and i love architectures and i have been watching since the first video and i wonder how do you get good at building? where do you learn to build things and do you have any pointers?
You tube is great to learn on. Local library is also great (I did that) you can look at books and pictures all day about construction and it doesnt cost anything. Once you hit working age you can get a part time job on a construction job/handy man helper and learn and get PAID for it. I also did some of that. (Helped my uncle when I was 10-11 years old)
@@MigraineCraftsman awesome will do thx!
Pxlo_a0 Job Corp will train you for free if under age 24. Located all over US and run by Dept of Labor. Go online for application.
Kid u are on the right track keep it up.
@@frankdatank2529 thx bruh
Looking at the view at sunrise, surely would cure migraines. Beautiful.
Can't wait for the total price of the windows. I priced fiberglass because they will get full sun. Price was steep, but I'm concerned about vinyl warping.
They will be triple pane btw
Thank you so much for all the helpful information 🙏🥰
I worked for my dad in construction. Designed some houses. I love it too ! Now in apt. sadly. My build was 3200 s ft. 14 rooms 4 baths.lol.. what fun.
Too old now. LOVE YOUR VIDS
3200 that is more then 4 of these :)
I built it with 7 bedrooms. Crazy ? No , I took in babies, medical cases , runaways..I loved search and rescue. My house had a German name meaning "A place of shelter "
Thrn continued nuilding batns/animals for pet therapy. A nice pool..etc..no vaulted celings. Although huge , it was used space , not palatial
I love your builds and your quality
Id love one were I down south. !
I liked hearing about how you started out! I'd like to build my own one day.
Do you have a contractors liscense?
And how did the "code" part work for then and now?
Exactly, that story about how he started this construction business should be a whole separate video with more details.
I’m pretty sure that would be very interesting video 🧐🤔
Looks good keep making video
WOW , WOW , WOW ; the only two things I see that's REALLY WRONG with this house is 1: it is at the wrong address , and 2 : it doesn't have the correct name on the deed ( MINE ) ! I think I just might like this one BEST OF ALL !!!!$$$$
I'm actually still waiting for an address so I dont even have one myself lol
John howard
The previously sold house had several potential buyers and the one who came first actually missed his chance because didn’t get financed by a bank. So I believe there is a high demand for such homes. And maybe some viewers are already getting their paperwork ready to get their hands on this property.
And yes I also wish MY NAME was on it’s deed 😊
@@MigraineCraftsman so how abt doing this in south florida on my land
"people put their feet in the Instagram picture so I thought I'd do the same" lol hahaha....nice. I've always found that bizarre.
I did always want to ask...how you got into this business...interesting light build moment :)
Hope you're good, MC. Eid Mubarak brother, stay safe and take it easy.
Stay safe as well, take care.
Awesome! Im just starting out, ... Thank you
yes finally ive been patientg thank u
Gracias por la información
I wish you could build in illinois or wisconsin brother. I would hire you and your crews anyday. My wife and i are saving for some land and want to build a home on it. Something this size. We dont need too much house. This would be just right for us.
That is where I moved from, small world. I was also looking at land in Lake Geneva WI at one point.
Thank you for sharing.
I love that blue 70s ford flatbed
That thing has been with my framer for a very very long time.
It's great to see your channel growing and doing so well! 👍👍
Thx Becki /cheers
Thank you for sharing
Great video
Looken good thanks for sharing
How much did you have into the materials at this point Minus the labor. What would a home like this cost minus labor
I'll reveal the total price at the end of the build once it's done.
Idk if this is a silly question, but do you have to have insurance while your building if a worker gets hurt or do the workers assume liability?
Nice work 👍🏼
Your voice and videos soothe my soul. Question, about how much would adding a loft add to the price?
Attic trusses are about $200 to $300 each plus the cost of higher pitch roof, stairs, and finishing it would be $10K at the minimum.
Who provides the building plans? Any recommendation for getting plans for a simple house like this? Thanks.
Can’t wait for the next episode! Btw, are you going to stage for sale the home once it’s done? I would love to see how they stage it especially since it no longer has that wall separating kitchen and living room.
I would love to start staging homes but I'm not there yet. As for the sale of the house it might be already sold , I'll find out this coming Friday for sure if everything goes well.
Thank you.
Do you fill in the hollow bottom of the tub/shower with grout or add support? You have a very efficient crew, amazing how little waste they leave for a house this size.
Depends on the unit yes.
I did collar beams and purlins resting on a strong back running down the center.
Another great episode! :)
Do you try to make houses that can be upgraded at a later date? Like added a floor or another room or extension?
Great question, Yes if you notice in the back of the house with only one window there is enough space for a storage shed or anything else you would want to put there. Grading still needs to be done but there will be space in the back. I'll show that in the future vids.
@@MigraineCraftsman can you build tiny houses in any city or do some place not allow it?
@@DannyH77 Some places wont allow it. I actually wanted to build some in my city limits and my mayor wont hear any of it. There was another builder wanted to do the same and he got shut down too.
For the cement you shared how much it was in material and labor separate, do you have that number for this as well? I would estimate about $4k for materials.
I'll continue you watching all your videos until I get where you are some day.
I can't wait till I get where I can help my community afford life and luxury without signing their lives away.
Anyway you have a way for some of us to reach out to you for advice??
Thx,
Regarding contact, just youtube for now, eventually I will have better ways maybe even in person. I'm working on some interesting things for the future of this channel.
What area is this in? That place is beautiful!!!
North Georgia
Man it's beautiful out there!
Save any scraps that you can use for blocking, behind cabinets, wall mounted TVs and door nob hits
That is exactly what we do. He doesnt waste much, the dump truck he brought with him was half full from another jobs site and wel barelly filled it with our job. Not bad one trip to the dump from 2 sites.
What if a house roof was being changed and then it starts raining or hail or a type of severe weather comes in?!
Another great informative video! ....How long on average do your builds take to complete from start to finish on a house?
All depends but around 3 months or so
nice one man
Did I miss the material/labor breakdown? Just curious.Thanks for a terrific episode.
It wasnt broken down I just included the matts and labor all together, my framer ordered the matts. (35-40% would be matts) give or take. Labor is not cheap but he's worth it.
@@MigraineCraftsman Thanks for the info buddy.
What do you do when the ridge board is not long enough?
Great video! Maybe I’ve missed it, but how much was for the labor?
So for me im trying to start my crew i been doing framing for a good while now but im not sure how much exactly to charge per foot. Great videos bro. Hope your doing well.
If you are starting a new crew (business) sit down do the materials calculations ($) then come up with how much money you want to charge for a job. You can also tell the customer if you provide the materials we will frame for such and such amount. There is a lot of ways to come to an agreement, dont be afraid to try different things.
@@MigraineCraftsman you're right. The thing is I've been doing mostly houses for a company like 84 lumber and more and they provide the lumber and concrete slab I'd be doing just the framing. Thanks a lot for the help.
with what you have there, what would it cost with a pyramid hip roof???
That would be more work since its more complicated (angles) so the price would be higher. How much higher I never done a roof like that since personally I like gables better but 1 to 2 thousand more would be a fair guess.
With the regular gable design you can buy trusses and be done in couple of hours installing them.
@@MigraineCraftsman Thanks so much, I'm enjoying your series. 🙏👍
What the best way to becoming a carpenter/construction as a beginner
Where do you buy you’re one piece tub shower combination do you know the stock number or name brand? Keep up the great work!
The place is called "city plumbing" I think american standard makes them. Dont have the model number.
Very well done, I’m looking to build the same size of house by myself, could you list all the steps from the concrete base to the framing and all the things if you would not mind, thank you 🙏

Also so you just buy property an have these guys build you houses to sell?
Buy, develop and sell, yes Sir. Take a look through my channel, you can see what I do and what I hire out.
@@MigraineCraftsman I been renting since my 20's an just tired of it getting hard to find good renters I live in area where the economy not so good so I thought about do what your doing you have opened my eyes soooo much an I thank you soo much!!! Just not sure what the right size to build...... I dt really want to go over 2 bed its cost so much to buy materials.... i haven't learned what is a average cost med grade from ground to turn key per square ft minus the property maybe you can help me with that? Again thank you....
Did you build your first home with your own money or loan? Congrats on your builds they look good.
I did it with my savings, but I do need to get involed with banks to leverage other money, that will be sometime in the future.
What kind of insulation are you going to put in that cathedral area? Where did you get the single piece tub?
R38 (fiberglass)in the whole roof system vaulted and rest of the house (I like better insulation even tho I could have used R 30)
The tub is from a place called City plumbing and it's $400
Hey migraine, are you including labor plus material in cost. Or is this just material pricing? Thank you
Labor and mats is included in that price.
I'm confused how the property lines will work. If you own the land and want to sell, won't the city have to come out and redraw the property line / sub-divide?
It gets done when the original person bought the land and subdivided it into a multiple lots (subdivision) That is then registered with the city and is on record. After that the property and be sold and bought and those original recordings stay in PLACE. If the LOT is big enough you can even subdivide that, but it gets tricky and expensive.
@@MigraineCraftsman I see. So the lot lines were already drawn before you broke ground for this new construction.
Hi I want to build this house! is there somewhere I can get the plans? thank you Frank
If you added an additional floor, how much would that adjust your price?
Never done the math on this house since I wanted to keep the roof pitch low. The cheapest way to go would be to get attic trusses.
Curious, do you have a chronological list of contractors you contact for entire house build ?
I contact everyone ahead of time and work them in the schedule. I usually try to stick with the ones I use, so sometimes I have to wait.
I hope you still visit your channel. You have really good videos and would love to talk to you.
Is this the cost of materials or materials and labor?
Materials and labor (Labor is expensive now a days and only going up, not many people want to do this kind of thing)
Cool view! Can we contact you for blue print instructions? Thank you for all the videos.
I'll have them available eventually for download
Ok what was the total cost of this house? Thanks.
..
How can I get a layout of this build
How much $ was the labor of the framing?
Great job! I want to ask how to find all those good Sub-contractor? We would love to know about. Thank you so much!
Trial and error, and a lot of phone calls and some referrals. It is not easy but there is plenty of good people out there.
How much was the cost of labor???
What areas of north Georgia do you build?
What state or area are you building your homes in?
NC and GA
@@MigraineCraftsman thank you .. great builds man!
How much total did you spend building this house?
It's not finished yet, I'll show that when it's done.
@@MigraineCraftsman Yes sir!! Looking forward to seeing the finished project.. Keep me posted I'll be looking for the video uploads
how much for just the materials?
lookin good what is the floorplan?
ruclips.net/video/Wm4hBoQ4s9Q/видео.html at 34 secs (minus the wall in the kitchen)
Since, you are in GA, do you think this is possible in the ATL?
ATL is too far out from me
@@MigraineCraftsman I wanted to know if you think the cost would be the same for someone trying to do this in ATL, if they found land at a reasonable cost.
@@derekwilson7902 ATL costs should be higher, they usually are with bigger cities. I would make some calls if I was you and find out how much your utility connections would be (water/sewer/power) also building permits and government fees. That should give you an idea/where to start.
@@MigraineCraftsman Thank You for the inspiration.
Haven't seen you in a year or two. Are you okay? Did you find any relief from your migraine headaches? My 25-year-old son has had unrelenting migraine headaches for the last 8 years never ending, never stopping, never going away. My wife has a brain disease, with never-ending migraines beyond 10 on the threshold. Has your pain eased? Have you found a solution? Or are you enduring, as we are? Please contact us.
Is there a floor plan for this house. I like it.
There will be, I'm working on it.
@@MigraineCraftsman any updates on this floorplan availability?
is that with labor
Yes Sir
Man I think you’re Crazy not to put windows in the gable end, even if it was a round window in the center. What would it cost 5 to 6 hundred? If I was buying it I would pay upwards of 1500 hundred to have those windows in there. The light and openness of them would be Priceless. Give it some thought! It’s not to Late. I believe if you did you would look back and say it was one of the smartest things you Did. It’s hard to put a price on the Wow factor 😇Do it man😎
I would love to do it but I have to look at the budget and what I want to sell this house for, all those 500 dollar items add up quick, really quick.
Im using that same brand roofing paper on my rooof the udl synthetic
You'll love it, that stuff is tuff.
