    Matt, what a great concept for a video. Meeting up with a builder that can show how they have enhanced their practices and benefitted from the Build Show. And Adam, what a phenomenal execution. It all gets covered up, but you built it as though it will be displayed in a museum. Great job.

    I feel like this builder's journey exactly describes my own. I spent 2 years watching everything. As a first time owner builder, I just started laying my foundation this week and even created a manual of Matt's greatest hits. To my surprise, the old school subs have even been super receptive. We're all learning and building better. Thanks Matt. My build is in Charlotte, if you're in the area anytime over next 18months, would love to do a similar walkthrough. (We are building 4 more family homes on the same 50 acres lot!)

    Wow, there is still hope for the building industry! It’s great to see someone that is actually interested in building well. Most builders I see today are only interested in building the cheapest thing they can throw up, and they act like minimum code is such an unnecessary burden on them. I’ve tried to educate a friend of mine that a builder here just outside Chattanooga but he always uses the excuse that he can’t do that because nobody else does and he has to compete. I like the boric acid trick, I did something like that a few years ago. My daughter and son in law bought a big house and the home inspector failed to notice the smell and damage in the attic from a major infestation of mice, squirrels, raccoons, etc. the previous owner had the access points for the larger animals repaired and covered up the mess with a new layer of fiberglass insulation but never dealt with the mice. We eliminated the mice and repaired all the places they were getting in then completely gutted the attic. When we put it back together we used blown in cellulose and I had him sprinkle borax powder into the hopper of the blower while were installing it.

    You have helped me, someone who builds/remodels now and then, and new builders. Something to really be proud of. I've completely changed my opinion about a ton of things and baking in those costs for Zip and other things into my upcoming build.. I'm a BSEE (Elec Engineer in Comp Science) and have worked in IT for the last 30yrs, I love building new things with my hands and getting away from the screen. Doing it right the first time makes all the sense in the world. I've had questions, and just by watching your videos, every one of them has been answered in depth. Kudos!

I'm 25, grew up working construction where speed prioritized quality, however, you, alongside the entire Build Network, have become the best role models from afar one could ask for. Learning from you has challenged my way of thinking, has made me sit, think and plan ahead before execution. Your teaching has taught me excellence. Thank you for doing what you do, thank you for the amazing tips, thank you for all your mistakes that you're helping us avoid. You and your team are awesome! You are to me, as Gamaliel was to Paul. God bless, Matt!

    That is a testament to Matts impact on the industry at large and to the individual builder. There’s no secret sauce here, just informed decisions and intentional design elements to meet a performance standard. I love that you give context to the reason for these kind of improvements to traditional framing. Some apply other places, some don’t, but it’s the exercise of determining the application and performance you desire and making the building work for you (your customer) or future generations.

    Someone should really come up with a nail gun that automatically deposits a bead of caulking.

    Having a nail gun that just automatically seals after you shoot would be a huge win, also keeps the nail from corroding. Someone build this :)

Your suggestions also made me aware of many areas where additional sealant was needed. I feel much better about the seal on soon to be new home.

      The building being so sealed might be an issue, would probably be a good idea to have a controlled system to bring in fresh air.

      even matt's house has that HVAC addon that brings in fresh air.

      That building has standard garbage commercial doors. They don't seal when new. It won't be an issue.

      Commercial buildings have fresh air code requirements.

    So there is this really cool product that I think you and all the passive house builders may find very interesting. It’s called Lok-n-Blok and honestly, it looks like big legos. It’s used to compete with concrete blocks and wood framing. It is a stackable block that is made from recycled materials and requires no screws, mortar, and things of that nature. The reason I think the passive builders would find it interesting is because it is fire resistant up to 400 degrees f, has an r20 insulation value, and requires no outside sheathing. It has a a whole lot more features than that, but I figured those would grab your attention the most, lol. Seriously though, consider giving it a look.
