    Fun to watch it come together. I'm living in a construction zone too so I feel your pain, but I also feel your excitement every time some little thing gets finished.

    Its looking good!! Love the shower. Probably the nicest shower I’ve seen in a shed to house. Can’t wait to see it when it’s done. My wife and I are thinking about physically building our own smaller house.

    New to your channel and really appreciate that you expressed your frustrations, yet always with a positive mindset. Also, thanks for detailing costs and unexpected hiccups and delays. Wow, all the things I had not / did not know. Will be purchasing land soon and similar set up with a converted barn, shed or "tiny" home to live in. Thank you for this educational moment and excited to continue your journey and see the final reveal. Your location and home look amazing, and how blessed to have support/help from family 💙.

This is something I've thought about but where I live I'm not certain it would be the best move. I'm enjoying watching your adventure and seeing your plans come together even thru those "waiting" times. Admire your patience. (Love your dog too!) 😊

    • @a.shed.instead
      @a.shed.instead  Год назад +3

      Hi there, absolutely! After the soils test, there was too much clay in the soil so they would only approve an aerobic system for that reason. If it was sandy I could have gone with a conventional system. Thanks for the question! 😊

    • @a.shed.instead
      @a.shed.instead  Год назад +2

      Hi there! Thanks so much, you're very kind. I got the shower panels from Lowe's. On their site they are called 'Jetcoat 42-in W x 42-in D x 78-in H Carrara White Corner Panel Kit Shower Wall Surround'
      Not cheap, but I do love them!
      Wishing you a blessed day as well, neighbor 😊♥️

      Hi there! Welcome to the channel 😊
      The building was 45k, which included basic electric, spray foam insulation, AC unit, windows, doors, delivery, and set up. I don't have a total because mine isn't done but it all depends on what kind of finishes you want, really. I hope that helps!

    • @a.shed.instead
      @a.shed.instead  4 месяца назад

      Congratulations! Well, first off ... did it come with any electrical? Need electricity to work inside of it. Plan, plan, and plan some more where you want everything so you know where your electrical outlets need to be, then add a few extra because you can't have too many outlets but you can have too few! I needed to move in my as quickly as I could, so we got the electric done and the walls up, and then did the plumbing so I could move into it unfinished. Best of luck to you! Let me know if you have any other questions I may be able to help with. 😊

    • @tennesseetexan1957
      @tennesseetexan1957 8 дней назад

      I did a 12 X 40 5 years ago. Put plastic down under your shed first especially if you skirt it. The moisture will create mold in your house. If you spray foam the bottom that will help also. Try not to put a lot of stuff in the house before the walls are finished & painted as you’ll have to move it several times & the dust will get on & in everything.
