Would you and your crew be willing to rebuild my deck in Colorado?? I have a grandson on the way, and I have to have it rebuilt by next summer. It's 850 sq. ft. We have 3 spare rooms plus a 2nd kitchen. I'm not sure if my back can handle it if I do it myself. My budget is $50,000. I'm serious about this. I have videos on my channel showing the existing deck.
Hi..sir
Pro Tip for Jay- reset your trip gauge every time you fill up and pump gas every 200 miles, 150 if you like to idle a bit, learned this from my high school teacher 22 years ago. He had a 70’s Mercury, fuel gauge was broken for 15 years and with this method never needed ti get it fixed and never ran out of gas. One school lesson I never forgot.
Jesus... how poor is the mileage on vehicles in the US? I can easily get 600 miles on a single tank.
@@-_James_- i mean this is a big vehicle thats definitely older and they haul on country roads with large elevation changes. plus it depends on your cars gas tank, I average 30 MPG but my car only has a range of about 300 miles because its a smaller gas tank.
@@daniel.s8126 there are a dozen issues that can be causing the problem, and you can’t tell me that you don’t have any problems or projects even ones they “should” be easy that you haven’t been done.
@@CaptainBlueTech Fair enough. Google's calculator suggests I get around 38-44MPG (depending on where I'm driving) with a 17.17 (US) gallon tank.
@@-_James_- Cars in the US I would say get on average 20-30 MPG, Gas here even when expensive tends to be cheaper than alot of places so there's not as much demand for the 40+ MPG cars though they do exist. Plus with how much we are in our cars and how much we do with them people tend to focus more on its capabilities and comforts over its MPG, if MPG is important to someone they go for electric or one of the 40+ cars.
A big part of the issue is the US Cafe standards, they are standards meant to make cars more fuel efficient however there's a provision that says the bigger the car is the worse gas mileage its allowed to get so they just make the cars slightly bigger every year and they dont have to make drastic changes in fuel economy; Also why our trucks are huge now and car manufactures cant sell many cheap fuel efficient vehicles because they aren't quite fuel efficient enough to pass the standards for their size.
Beautiful house! Love all the custom details. And thank you for not showing Ray hanging off the deck to screw the bottoms of those posts in!
Just gotta say fellas! probably my favourite blue collar channel on all of RUclips. Y'all do great work and the videos are informative and light hearted and funny at times. Thanks for sharing all this with the world.
I live in Brazil and I like construction, I happened to watch a video by Perkins and I couldn't stop watching, they are very intelligent and creative, but the unity of the team and the way they work with joy definitely won me over.
Another Sunday with the Perkins team. Yes!
Needs a special guest appearance from Arlo.
Take your impact apart and clean the dust out then clean with QD contact cleaner. I’ve brought my Dewalt back a few times.
I just love your guys comradery with each other!
Discovered your channel about a month ago when I was sick in bed and watching random things on YT.. I’ve watched sooo many videos from the past you guys have posted.. and I just want to say you guys are awesome! I’m checking YT daily for new videos lol keep up the amazing and entertaining content!! Love all the work you guys do!
question- the wall that now holds the new roof was not load bearing, but now it is. Were there any structural upgrades you had to do to that wall? Especially with all those doors
Almost all exterior walls are load bearing if they didn't add weight transfers, it's because it is load bearing. That's an excellent question!
@@gabbawsdestinyvideos3282 I would assume it isn’t load bearing because it’s on the gable end, but not sure obviously
5:34 "Jaime added a few extra screw holes..." That reminds me of my dad. He sent me some pictures of some raised planters he built recently and even if he sent me them with no context, I would know he made them because there's 1000 screws in each 3'x2'x2' box. In the trim, there are two screws every two inches. He said he used nearly three full boxes of screws to make three small planters. He's been that way my whole life, everything he makes is sturdy as all hell.
He just wants to leave evidence of civilization for future archeologists xD
Good man...USA built... Love it..... JJ...😅
it is good to see some remodeling videos. you guys are fun to watch when your figuring out how to make things work with what you have to work with like when you have to remodel something. i would almost think most of the viewers are more remodeling than building all new homes.
Jamie is correct to ALWAYS over estimate load, and over build. We had a storm here (PNW) some years back. DUMPED snow for 2 days, followed by 2 days of HEAVY rain... Then came the cold. The settled, now saturated, remaining snow (which was more like ice really) was still 5 ft. deep. Many roofs collapsed (even new construction). I cleared a lot of roofs that week! would estimate the load averaged around 80 ~100 lbs. per sq. ft. On a lighter note; Jason needs to add bread crumbs and a Jerry can to his bug-out kit. 🤨😉😂
Did you guys do a video series on building this house? I absolutely love the layout, and the extra special touches you guys put in.
Love those badass beautiful doors Oh man Jamie you did well on them thank you all for sharing do say hello to Mr Arlo we do miss him alot say hi for us the viewers he is a breath of fresh Air still learning still here please be safe fellas
I like how you guys built the hog panel railing, especially how it’s attached to the posts, by drilling holes for the panel ends vs butting two pieces on each side.
If you videoed building this house I don't recall watching it. Looks like an awesome house.
Do you have a build video for this house? The cool features you added would be fun to watch!
I think they build this house way before they started this youtube channel
I would love to see this build and the plan drawings. Perfect for my dream house build.

This house was the "Nantahala Retreat", there was a whole series for it, plus a 2 hour compilation video of the complete build
The roof is well needed. I know You will make sure it is safe & everything !!! I LOVE YOU ALL @ P. B. B. !!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
It's 👍🏿 great to be able to have professionals' custom design a home 🏡. You two brothers compliment each other.
That is an AWESOME house! I love all of the custom work you guys did on it. Perfect colors and finishes too, I may have to borrow some ideas!
That IS a beautiful house -- can't wait to see the new roof up and done!👍🏻
My grandmother lived in a condo in Ft Lauderdale and had limited storage space. So, she kept a two foot tall tree that she decorated with different ornaments for every holiday. They were flat, so she could store them in a box easily. Most were handmade.
You guys are so talented. That house is really beautiful.
I love the small projects as a newer DIY/remodeler. Great vids as always
Could've ran a beam to catch the ridge support above, so you wouldn't need a central post in sight line. But yes, still would've had to address the post supports down to the ground and would've been very expensive.
Oh well Jaime, I think a shed roof looks very nice on a semi-rustic mountain home
Friend of mine up north put heat strips under his metal roof patio and he has them timed to turn on when the roof gets 'snow heavy.' Works like a charm.
That's a Beautiful Home!!!
In some instances this was spooky to watch but y'all are good. Eric and Jamie are an amazing team when it comes to making decisions. Love it! Enjoyed watching and thanks.
That Trex material I think requires a spacing of 12 inches instead of the standard larger spacing used for treated wood. Crazy that it moves so much.
What a beautiful view!
Hey!!! Love the channel. Yal are my favorite builders. I watch every video. Can’t wait for the next build.
Beautiful home with a beautiful view.
The Greatest Team EVER!
Good pitch is so important, here’s a thought. Next time drop those rafters 9 1/4” and flush them with the outside header. You can hang them with rafter hangers and gain 9 1/4” of pitch. Pressure block whatever eve you need on outside.
Nice addition, and agree with opening up the space with doubles!
Watching from the Philippines supporting you all guys!❤
You guys do such amazing work. Inspiring! Now back to putting new siding on my shed.
What a beautiful build that place was. You guys did amazing work originally and a roof or even a half roof with a gutter to catch the water will just finish it nicely. Great team work to save Jason 😅
Love those custom touch’s you guys were allowed to do! Sweet!❤
For a moment, I thought with a tingling, I am gonna watch "anatomy of a fall" as I watch you guys standing at the edge without a precaution.
Love watching your workmanship. Sure do Miss Arlo....😊👍🏻❤️❤️
Looks great as usual, love the fact that they still have some open sundeck.
Love from India
I love that you carried the single slope roof from the front porch to the back porch.
How much load will those original deck beams take? With a roof and all that timber + potential snow you're adding quite a bit of weight. 😮
I love this house.
"Take all the screws out and see what is feels like".
I recently had to demo a ton of cabinets and this was my method to avoid slipping into insanity.
Installer had no clue what he was doing and made up for it by adding roughly 300 screws as he went along to gang each cabinet together as a group of units.
When I was a young single mother, the gas gauge went out on my car. My temporary solution was to always keep the tank full... no running out of gas on a curvy country road. And of course, I had it replaced asafp.
Haha, but we are talking about Jason here. Concerned but unsure about his range. Miscalculated and here we have it. 🤣 Not judging, I miscalculated the ability of one of my former vehicles and stupidly trashed the rear differental. It took a trip to a salvage yard to buy a whole new rear axle to make to roadworthy again😒In a totally different vehicle after stretching it about 225 miles ending in East central KY, I ended up coasting in neutral down every hill in neutral possible after trying to make it to a gas station just to fill up the tank in my Jeep cause it was screaming at me via the gage and warning light I had no fuel left. No co-workers to bail you out. Tense I tell ya...... I plan a little diffrently now...
My first vehicle was a 1960 VW Bus and it didn't have a gas gauge at all. I kept a little notebook and pen on the passenger side under dash shelf that served as a glove box in which I entered every single gallon of gas I bought and what my odometer mileage was at the time I added gas to the tank. In doing this, I was able to figure out my average MPG. I'd multiply how many gallons of gas I had bought by my MPG to figure out how many miles I could drive before having to put more gas in the bus, then would add that number to my current odometer reading. It wasn't a perfect system, as I ran out of gas many times, but I did have a manually operated reserve tank that saved my ass more than once. Running out of gas in the middle of nowhere, or miles from a gas station, is an inconvenience sure, but can also lead to some very interesting and fun adventures (as I found out, more than once). Can also be very dangerous...I was very lucky never to have experienced any danger as a female driver alone in the middle of nowhere in the middle of a stormy night who was also on foot, out of gas and away from my vehicle. Times were maybe safer then, I don't know.
reset the trip odometer to 0 at each full fueling
@@TheRealPlato no trip odometer in the 1960 VW
I live in the UK and love watching your builds. 👍 I'm surprised that you don't have to put up scaffolding of have harnesses for this though. In the UK you'd never beable to work next to an open drop like that. Odd how different the rules are even in more regulated countries. Keep the videos coming
Was literally watching th3 Nantahala retreat build and saw this and came to watch.. can't wait for next project let's gooo!!!
I believe the tool used for stripping the bark off is called a SPOKESHAVE. Oh and why do I enjoy your show so much? As a little girl, I actually drew blueprints a lot and when I was eventually tested for my best aptitudes for a job, the testing showed that my architectural abilities were about 700-800 % above average. But alas, I came from a poor family and girls were not supposed to have brains and there was no such thing as Student Loans then. Sob story is now over, but my talents remain. I can look at a blueprint or a pattern layout and see the finished result and I especially enjoy the construction work atmosphere and the incredible teachings and participation by all your crew. Inspirational conversations, too. I wonder if I would have made a half-decent carpenter, but am now 70 years old. I can identify most woods by taste and smell- just like my Dad did.
a spokeshave is for fine woodworking and carving. A drawknife is what you’re talking about. Similar tools for different purposes
Hahaha The Business end of this tape, i.e. the smart end. Jamie got ya on that one😆😆 Y'all take care...
Having a porch built by a contractor we where talking about you guys how amazing work you do❤
Great video!!
Love from India ❤❤
So today we learned,
Jamie is the master of "better looking at it than for it" Use all the screws!!!!
Jason needs to get a better work vehicle.....lol
Ray makes the best "male model" for sunglasses!
Jono is the best mate ever for helping Jason with his junk car....!
Erik is way too hard on tools!! I bet he broke all his toys as a kid.....lol
Love you guys please keep up the awesome work!!
“Tip” Started using Lexel and really like it but like everyone that uses it you end up with it all over your fingers and hands. Found that using Tub O’ Towels wipes does an amazing job of removing it from your hands. Tub O’ Towels is my go to wipes now.
2nd fastest and favorite 23 minutes of my week. ;)
Another great video and hope you found where to turn the water on.
Hahahaha Jason running out of gas is hilarious:)
Haha Jono at the end. Most un prepared dad 😂😂
Jamie, good call on the snow load!
“Jamie did the code book stuff” made me laugh out loud.
great video!
Your timing for this video is amazing! I'm just starting a project to put a shed roof over my existing deck, and have the same battle with very low roof pitch. However, my house has stucco siding so I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on how to tie in the ledger
How did I miss this build
How do you know if your lags through the band board are hitting studs on the other side?
The top of the screw is usually threadless to allow them to pull boards together. If you miss a stud, it'll just spin endlessly.
So by cutting the tails and notch for the girder to 5 1/2” you effectively cut the rafters down from 2x10 to 2x6 and that should be what you use for your span calculations.
I would have dropped those rafters all the way onto that beam and then attached rafter tails on the outside... It might have gotten you to 2/12. Get a ton of lexel under that top flashing, 40mph wind can push water uphill on a 1/12 pitch
Poor Jason it’s always something lol😅😅😅all in good fun buddy!!
Turned out to be a pretty day here in WNC with a new episode to start it off.
You guys build cool stuff man
How did you determine the length of the lags for holding the band board to the house? Is that the thickness of the band, siding, and sheathing, plus one inch to penetrate into each stud?
That's how I do it, but I always account for the screw to go AT LEAST halfway into the structural member. So for a stud I'd want at least 1 3/4". So the band would be 1 1/2", the siding would be about 3/4" with the overlap and the sheathing is probably 1/2". In this case I'd probably use a 5" lag.
@@MrMaxymoo22how do you locate each stud. Especially without taking off the siding?
@@mikestein8253 stud finder inside the house usually works. Sometimes you can pull the base trim and see them. Measure from a corner, make an educated guess and send it. Stick a scope in the wall and look around. Lots of ways to skin that cat, but I usually just pull the siding. Much easier.
Hi guys loving you content as always as for your impact drill can be fixe easily all it’ll be is the trigger it has electronics in it you can order replacement easy fix 👍
That is such a cool house and it’s giving me ideas for my own lol
Speaking of year round holiday decorations, my neighbor has a full sized skeleton sitting on a tree swing made from Christmas lights... in May.
I would have loved to see the construction of this home.
Question:
So when you attach the rafters to the wall plate,why are you not required to have a 2x2 support strip( w/ 3nails) like when building a wooden deck for floor load. Is it not required? ..but I was just wondering on the “sheer” strength of just toenailing the rafters to the wall band plate and the weight of roofing material and “snow”.
Just wondering. Thanks- I really enjoy the videos on all your builds.
I remember those windows going in!
Happy Sunday y’all
Glad y’all opted for that skillion roof rather than the pitched one.
Definitely would have reduced the available light in through those upper windows.
I so wish you built houses outside of NC...
Nice outback
8:05 thats the doors you need for your office. Not that crappy white.😂
I remember my old Tahoe, once that gas light comes on you have MAYBE 5 miles.
I wish to meet y’all in real life but it’s sad I live so far away 😢
Really love watching your videos 😊
From India
Hi crew! ❤️ the videos 😊
Hey!!! 👋
Hi guys you lot are still my favorite building bunch of people..I enjoy your videos !but I miss Arlo yup I do stay safe you bunch of carpenters stay safe can’t wait for the new build cheers ❤️🙏😃👍🦘🇦🇺🇺🇸🧌🍺
nice video
I think it might have looked better if you rotated those brackets at the bottom of the posts by 90deg so that they would be hidden a bit more.
You guys are so funny bro... I love the Channel RUclips whatever it's called😂😂...thanks... JJ...😅...
lol Jaime; 'Check out the business end of the tape here'. 😆
love the building expertice and laughter.
Wait, this is just a holiday home and not their primary residence?!
There's tons of rich snowbirds buying vacation and retirement properties in western nc, especially near Asheville
If there is enough uplift to actually lift the roof those screws aren’t stopping anything.
Love your work 👍
😂😂 Siri couldn’t find Ray Jones in my address book 🤣🤣
Hey Boys!! Happy Sunday to you all!! KUTGW
Hey Miles. Have a great week. (Kenzo, btw.)
@peasanthill5255 kenzo..You have a great week too!!
I am so addicted to your videos.
That roof needs a big skylight to let the light in the house 👊🏻
