Those Guys they really great Job Done to your fence... If you're planning a full time Contractor you should hired them permanently those guys are Great. A Good men = Good Job
Many bosses stand back and bark orders to the workers all day and never get down and dirty, that’s the type boss that workers often inwardly despise. Your workers will have the greatest respect for you because you work right alongside them and work as hard if not harder then what you ask them to do, and because of that respect they are far more likely to do their best to please you.
I like your approach, I like your attitude - Good job!
Very well said!
That’s the difference between a BOSS & a LEADER. Richard has an awesome leadership skill which the crew give too much respect and draw knowledge and inspiration from him. This is an interesting video for us construction guys. Kudos to you Richard.
lucky wifey for having richard in the real essence of the word
I can see a bright future for you richard, you’re gonna be a successful contractor there in your province. 👷🏽♂️ keep it up!
Who is your contractor , to help you doing your fence ? Ty
Me!!!
@@TheRichardArmstrong ah , ok you just got some help from some neighbours right ? How far is condon Tamurong to your place .
Hi Richard my American husband says you are smart hardworking husband. If we plan to stay in the Philippines we are going to hire you or buy the house that you already built because we knew how strong and how you built it. Wonderful job. God bless you and take care and your family. Be safe all the time.
Richard these kinds of videos showing how things are done well when doing foundation work and talking in detail about why you do what you do are so helpful to many of the people who are having similar work done. I'm happy to see things progressing as smoothly as possible for your house build. May God bless and keep you and your works safe throughout construction. Its a shame that construction worker Ella couldn't make the cut..but thems the breaks as they say. lol You can already tell this house will be Armstrong Strong home! Best Wishes for you all!
I love na yung tawag ni ate Donna sa trabahador nila ay 'Sir' ❤️❤️
The build is coming along quickly. I really like the tall fence and the louvers on the fence. Do you have a completion date yet? This is going to be a strong safe home that you will be proud to own just like your last house. Keep up your good work.
Another hidden benefit of putting downspouts in those columns is allowing cool air to rise through those giant heat sinks to cool them off from the inside on sunny days as well as helping to cool the columns off quicker on rainy days and we know how hot it can get out here. Those downspouts will act like chimneys to exhaust that heat away
Msbusisi talaga husband mo pagdating sa pagpapagawa ng bahay..I salute u Donna and Richard.
That's some of the best block work laying I've seen in the Philippines very neat
Well if that’s the best..whets the worst !
It look good... good high fence is good security and privacy...
Really nice work Richard building it strong.
Can't wait to see the whole house once you guys are done 👏
I have much admiration for someone who puts so much energy and time in building his own home. you could easily sit back and watch the workers do what you're paying them for. but you get right in there and work along side your workers, helping and directing. I'm looking forward to each vlog on your house build.
The workers will learn from him too.. the hardwork and mindset❤
Wow nice 👍👍
Team Armstrong🇵🇭🇪🇭👍🙏😇
God bless 🙏😇❤️
Always impressive! 👍👍👍
In the Uk we pour 10mm clean stone around pipes to allow drainage and prevents breakage with ground movement or expansion.
RECOMMENDATION: When you construct your actual house, do not put inside the column the downspout. Why? (1) Philippines always have an earthquake, you need a solid column from footing to roofing. (2) Inside downspout, when clogged, you cannot rectify it, outside is much easier to declogged and/or replaced.
Good job guys! Keep going and good luck with the new project! I hope, one day, I can meet you and see this new project!
I was amazed at the depth of his knowledge on construction of fences it looks extremely strong..
I enjoy following your videos..Great job guys..Happy New Year‼️
That "drive it like you stole it" made me smile. 😀 I could imagine how much clay backfill you'll need. My house is built on an adobe bed. I loved and hated it during the build.
I love your attention to detail Richard.
I’m learning new things myself by watching.
Coming along awesome. 👍
Very strong foundation! Congratulations!
Very sturdy fence. Its very nice that you're satisfied with the work output of your construction workers. 😁👏
Good job Richard you're work hard so with your workers. You're so kind to others. God bless you and your family.
Wow! This is just the perimeter... can't wait to see how the house is constructed and see the finished home... God bless you more!
Very well thought of - amazing! I’m learning from you. It seems that you have more knowledge in building construction than those who professed to be professionals. I’m paying so much attention to the details and your explanation for the design. I’m gonna have my house built soon and I definitely will have a very active role in the design and construction like the way you’ve done with your previous house and I bet it’s probably easier the second time around for you. Kudos to you sir and thank you for documenting it for people like us! Can’t wait to see the finish product!🙏🏾😀
Thanks for sharing all your knowledge Richard. I'm glad you explained about your fence. I live in the Philippines and we plan on building a house here in the near future. Thanks & God bless!
Great progress 👏🏻👏🏻
Perfectionism is the best way for a picturesque house
You become truly one with the Philippines when you are doing construction in flip flop.
Mr Armstrong know's what's d best for bldg. their beautiful house. so excited to see d new house
Awesome, I want this man to build my future home when I move to the Philippines 🇵🇭 . I loved the last house. This one I'm sure will be great.
I pray the construction of your new house goes as well as it did with your previous house.
I love this family. Mind ur health guys. More Power!
Engineered STRONG!!
Looking Solid .. Great job Gentlemen.. 💯🙏💯💪
Off setting rebars on a splice is done here but if there's space insade the mold some foremen forgo the the offset on the splice. Sometimes they weld the rebars to avoid the splice.
Any job,big or small do it right or not at all. Good job Richard, thanks for letting us tag along...
Wow..really great job.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 more projects sir, you are an ideal person.
love your work ethic mate. I know you both work very hard.
I applaud you being hands on and being a hardworking despite of the scorching mid afternoon heat.
watching your vlogs from Israel about Mr. Armstrong's house, I'm proud with you that you are very open arms strong to your family.
wow your'e such a good home builder sir armstrong.....god bless
Cool stuff, noice!
Keep it up!
Yes happy Building your Home 😀
Good morning Armstrong Fam, hang in there it will eventually became a brand new house for the family. Waiting to see your new house, stay safe guys ❤️❤️❤️
Please put caps on the drain pipes so nothing falls in during the build. I watched another build. and a jealous and disgruntled employee drooped a piece of wood along with concrete down the pipe wasn't discovered until a long time after the build when smelly water build up was building up in his pipe
Great progress
👍👏👏. Looking good 👍
Quality build as always. ❤❤❤
im excited to see the finish product
I can see you make sure it's strong and sturdy. That would be the first two storey house in the middle of farm land. As you know there is such thing as soil boring test .
Amazing work 👏👏👏👏
Good thing you gonna backfill it high and compact it. I got my Aunt house they make in a farm lot after
5 years the floor cracks and then cave in.
I think pilings would keep that from happening. That and letting the backfill settle for up to a year.
I have a house here and built here a few years ago.. But I will say one thing,I believe you are one of the best builder's if not the best on You Tube in the Philippines! Not only do you have the book knowledge you also have the practical " Hands on knowledge". Excellent Job. Your construction is top notch people need to watch your channel before building so it done correctly and will last.
wow the way i see you you'll soon be a successful construction magnate👍
Rock solid Richard. There's nothing quite like an over engineered build for peace of mind👍
I envy the the couple who bought your first house because i saw how well it was built and it was built with love.
Retirees will love single floor houses were you don't have to clime stairs to go to some places in the house
You really work hard sir richard...I really admire u a lot...
Another impressive build and your knowledge to detail is what makes your build fun to watch. Am planning to transition to build in the Philippines and your videos are making it possible for me.
Thank you for posting your videos.
Really good to see the Drain Pipes inside the columns, the only thing I want to add is Temporary Covers on top of every drain pipe. If ever there will be debris or just a stone dropped inside such will cause so much problem and might render the drain pipe useless.
Best of the best sir richard
Watching and following from California your great construction 👍🇵🇭❤️🇺🇸💪
I'm learning some ideas if i will build mine in 3years from now. Thankyou Armstrong family
heyyyy helloooo the walls are coming along nicely !! tons of respect for your skillz and how you work along side your team !! ~~ we miss you guys very much. Its sooo cool to see everything firsthand from where its come from back 3 weeks ago
Donna so lucky with Richard ♥️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The boss .d worker developer & the vloggers...👍👍👍🤣
When you excavate for the foundations of the house don't forget to spray against termites before concreting and after concrete and before backfilling.
To all the nah sayers and negative critics - please back off or at least tone down your rhetoric. The place looks to be well (err even over) engineered and thought through. Keep up the good stuff and KEEP DIRTY 😁🤣
wow! amazing the wall perfect wall palang ulam na what if they finished the whole house . papa richard i really excited dont forget to invite me for the blessing of that very beautiful house ..of u mama donna very proud of u i love u guys see u in ur next vlog ingat
Goodluck guys
Ang sipag ni Sir Richard!!!! IDOL NA KITA!
Things are progressing nicely...
I appreciate the effort you're making explaining the process and things to watch out for...
Keep on keeping on and looking forward to coming episodes to see how this comes together!
You all make a great team, even the youngest addition is jumping in!
Good stuff!
🙏🙏🙏
👍😎👍
Godbless and be safe ALWAYS
I like the way you construck your property yes rebar first b4 putting the cement it gives it much stronger base and stayfree crack i agree w/ you on that 100% sir Armstrong God bless and keep it comin'
Hello Armstrong Family. Happy New Year. We are always watching your Vlog. Excited to see your New House. This coming July, me and my Husband are planing to have a vacation in Philippines. And my Husband wants to go there in your place to see you guys.😊i told him it's not possible because you're both busy maybe..😊😊😊.
Just a thought - You already have the concrete floor grinder/polisher - have you thought about doing Terrazzo floors? Yes it’s more labor intensive but labor in the Philippines is cheap and like I said you already have the floor grinder/polisher so once you get your crew trained you’ll have another great business opportunity.
We put rain Gutter at the top of our back wall, So all back Covered Garden run off is Channel away from the house. Also have a plant water system of 3 to 4 blue barrels for rainwater for plants, Just a thought, Be Safe, I thought id share,
sir please seal off the protruding end of all your conduit, raindrops may fill in and that may become your problem in the future when electrical conductor are already installed.
Very Nice 😊
I don’t wanna jinx yah , but wearing flip flops is asking for trouble. One slip and you’re outta commission for a while.
I always learn things watching your vlogs. Thanks for the knowledge. 👍
Yes, Donna keeps getting on me about it as well!!! Says. I have a pair of work boots. Wear them!
At least some sneakers. You don’t wanna lose any toes.
definite better improvement option on this build...
Richard, when looking at typical Philippine HB and mortar, it always looks a bit messy, they seem to use a lot of mortar between layers and no mortar between blocks. In comparison to the US, we use about a 1/2” of mortar on all sides with nice clean lines and spacing. What are your thoughts on this, do you think it affects the quality of the wall? I remember on the first build you really wanted to avoid HB, was this one of the reasons?
Hai Richard nice project good coordination. You right better check yhan sorry. 👍
Great
i remember our neighbors having that kind of high fence, it's for privacy and security.
I just started watching your vlog, it’s possible I missed earlier episodes. You seem very knowledgeable in house-building, are you an engineer or have an architectural background? I appreciate what you’re doing and wish you more success.
Happy new year to you
Good job kuya richard
Making the name Armstrong proud.
You should have done the piling for the columns before the back filling ...
love the videos you guys are making I am hoping to be able to build there myself soon in the Philippines i like to ask some questions about your equipment u have and where you got it from awsome video i am looking forward to watching them all
Richard you are so lucky that your soil is soil and not solid rock. Building a house on the north end of Cebu Island we have three or less inches of soil then we are into solid rock, in fact the upper part of the land we have stone sticking out of the ground, not little stones but huge boulders. When we were digging the 45 footings for the columns the sound of progress was the ding ding dink of the bar hitting the stone along with the rat a tat tat of the one jack hammer I have (wore it out), In this area they don't dig with a shovel but a long bar made out of a 25mm rebar. The one good thing is that I will have no settling as all columns are sitting on solid rock. I like how you extended your fence footing (cantilever retaining wall) into your land making a large heel at the bottom. With the soil on top of the heel. That will keep your wall from leaning outward with the pressure against it. I see so many people just put a 6 inch beam at the bottom of the wall and wonder why if fails. Keep up the great work and look forward to future vlogs.
Are you building a two story house?
Yes
There are many videos of building houses with Siporex (AAC).
may i recommend septic tank i suggest to use a ready made synthetic tank now on the market, best tank (best tank brand or other brand) also consider installing a below ground run off water impounding tank, since you are to backfill a substantial area a space for it can be designated, which can supply you with water for utility use.
Doing such a great job! brother your a PRO! Hope you can help me build when I get my chance! YOU ARE AWESOME!!!! Great crew also!!!
it’s been a while.. I was in Pinas for vacation and finally watched your 3 videos. Richard or maybe should call you Chard like same as my name richard short of chard. How’s your weight challenge hope you get some progress while working on your project. keep it up and still watching here from California
Good morning 🌅 happy new year po 🌷🌷🌷🌷 shout out from Laguna po
