Another benefit of using the Rockwool insulation on interior walls and ceils is it increase the fire rating, it’s not just for noise and heating and cooling. 👍
House is coming along great. I miss some of your old content on the homestead of gardening and the chickens. Hopefully you get this done soon so it can get back to animals.
Magnificent!!! You must be so proud and excited!!! TY for sharing your build!!! I think y'all deserve some kind of prize, but having this gorgeous home WILL be the grand prize for all your perseverance through this process!
The more water you can put on that deck while it is curing the stronger it will be in the long term. It is plenty strong to support guys carrying drywall across it by now, Nice to see the progress,
agreed in theory, but it looks like it's been freezing every day there. But I do agree about keeping it wet without it freezing. It's a big thick slab and I hate to see cracks
@@yanbu000 Further into the video it looked like the deck was sealed so my point was moot. I did see saw cuts so hopefully the cracks go where they are supposed to go.
The porch looks great. Maybe think about planting a native wildflower patch in that circle instead of sod. It will look pretty and the butterflies and bees will love it!
You might want to mark, on the floor, all of the electrical receptacles and A/C vents. Drywall guys move fast and have been known to cover things up...
Be sure to reintroduce Red Wiggler Worms into the grassy areas around your house. The RWW's are great for revitalizing new construction site soils.They dig 12'-18' down and bring trace minerals to the surface for plants & trees, aerate the compacted soil, fertilize the surface (worms don't poo where they dig & live), multiple at an unbelievable rate and will be the hardest workers that you ever have on your Homestead. I used about one cup per 12' x 12' area to reestablish the areas on either side of my new driveway, the grass is beautiful and healthy without chemical fertilizers within the first year. P.S. I customized my grass seed for quick cover with Annual seed, Perennial for long term grass growth and Clover for future Honey bees and soil nitrogen revitalisation. This is the Seed in my mix which I put down heavy before the Spring bird migration and the day before a two day rainstorm the end of March in Ohio. April Showers bring May Flowers, but also lazy landscapers that don't like to water or use straw to retain moisture for new grass seeding jobs. Red Clover White Clover Annual Rye Grass Annual Fescue Annual Bluegrass Perennial Rye Grass Perennial Fescue Perennial Bluegrass
Do you mind me asking when you did this? Our guy put a layer of compost and the worms loved it, but they also made the lawn all lumpy. That was about ten years ago and we need to redo the whole thing, you can hardly walk across it.
Wow... it's amazing how little things add up to big things! Gosh I can imagine you guys are almost giddy with this coming together... such a long wait. Really just couldn't be happier for you guys! Smiles and blessings...
I don't think the blue plastic boxes are rated for surface mounting so you might have to switch to the metal boxes that are to pass an inspection. A switched outlet or outlets to a timer box on the porch can be useful if you setup decorative lights under or around the porch. Can you use the Wago style lever wire nuts for electrical there or do you have to use the twist style wire nuts? They make changing out things very easy as you don't need to redo the entire bundle of wire in a cramped box. If you are looking for something temporary to keep the ground in place that isn't going to require mowing pickup a bag or two of clover deer feed patch seed to spread on the areas. You get a nice clover ground cover to lock the soil into place and food for the bees when the cover flowers and the deer will wonder out of the woods to feed on it. Clover is also great for chickens as they love the stuff. Easy to put in without much work and if you want to switch to a lawn later it has been adding nitrogen to the soil the entire time it has been growing.
Since Pure Living for Life went this has been my main project I've been following. This project is amazing and it will be so nice to see it complete and hopefully follow other little projects that you have planned in and around the home.
I bet you and the family are very excited. You’ve come so far. I still remember you two sitting on lawn chairs in the dirt before the footers were poured explaining the plans. Great looking build.
We've been in our ICF house just over 3 years now - Love It! The only 'problem' is that it is so well insulated that the outside temp has to be below 50F or the wood stove produces too much heat at its lowest burnrate with a small fire in it. I wish I'd known about the LED wafer lights when we built. I'd have used them for most of the house.
I am a subscriber that joined quite a while ago. Eventually stopped watching and moved on to other channels. Was going back through all my RUclips channels and thought hey, I’ll check in. Well, I was blown away how far you have come. I remember now that things were going very slow when I stopped watching. It was just you in the camp chairs talking on your land. So... congratulations on this beautiful build. I cannot get over the view and the size of your home. Now that I’ve been catching up, I will follow more closely!
This is so awesome guys! Congratulations you are so close!! By the way we just got our very first pullets. I blamed y’all. Hope you don’t mind lol. Hoping for smooth sailing and that you all finally get to move in to your new home soon.
Happy to see the progress you're making. You may want to consider allowing for overhead lighting in the porch overhangs. We did a large covered deck and have both door sidelights and overhead pots lights. We we almost exclusively use the pot lights. The overhead lighting spreads better and is easier on the eyes being above rather than off to the side. Just thought I'd mention before you get to siding in case you have to add wiring. I imagine you could just snake some wires up the foam if need be. Bet you can't wait for the build to end;)
Suggestion, if you polish and seal the deck, it might be good to texture it with something like sand. It will be slick when wet and the grit could help folks from busting their bunz with a slip and fall. There I added my useless two cents.
Alright! alright! alright! a new video.. Well, getting all the odds and ends done, is nice relief for ya. Oh that gravel driveway looks good, and the drywall is done. Thanks for the video, I look forward the next video..Have a great week.
Good morning from New Hampshire. House build looking good! Dry wall is a BEAR! We are older and went with a modular to avoid the "whole thing!". Very happy to move into a mostly finished abode. We are adding our porch this year. Naturally the price of lumber is high. We have stunning views like yours up at the main farm. They come with a state view tax. So we chose to build deep in the woods, but the farm gardens are on top of the ridge, so I can enjoy those views, while watching the boys hay. All the best to complete your house project!
I know I'm real late in commenting but have you given thought to how to best access the 2nd story? At some point our old(er) legs won't do stairs like they do now.
So awesome to see it all coming together man! We just got 10" of snow today...heavy wet crap! What a mess. It was looking just like your neck of the woods here yesterday! I grilled some buffalo burgers with a side of pickled cactus. Can't wait to see the next one brother! Send my best to Jaime and the girls.
@@Guildbrookfarm Yeah, being a Yankee I was skeptical at first, but oh man is it really good! It had some onion and a jalapeño in the bottom of the jar. DE....licious! The brand is "Doña Maria".
Great progress. Thank you for sharing your experience with us. I have learned quite a bit from you guys as I work on my build. Thanks again for sharing!
It is coming together nicely, thanks for the update and links, we should be getting our build going in a couple months. I wonder what the price difference id between a concrete deck and wood, I know over the years the concrete would las much longer.
The Lithonia pancake lights are pretty awesome. I put a set of those in my kitchen. I found a couple of the wagos ended up failing on me after a few months (open circuit) and I ended up replacing them with marettes. Not a huge deal, but you may want to be able to pull the boxes out of the holes for service.
Remember back in the basement of the old homestead when Jeremy produced a few videos of “Tool School”? This build sure gave a whole new meaning to that phrase. 🤣 Love y’all! 💕✌🏼 ~Lisa
Hi Jeremy I Hope you put rain gutters on your porch roof for rain catchment. I know that you guys have a well but redundancy is key in case your well pump breaks down
So close yet so far away! Gosh, y'all, I am so happy for ya! It's getting down to tedious projects, but soon those tedious projects will turn into the tedious task of laying tile and putting in finishes. I still SO see Christmas this year! Of course, I've said that for a few years running now. But, this time, I know it will happen! I can totally see sod yards around the house! After everything y'all have endured you definitely deserve some fineness. Splurge a little. It'll be ok.
As a residential electrician who has put in 1000s of lights. I think 3000k is a better 4000k, most of our customers prefer 2700k. When you put in your modules use a hole saw with a dust bowl. Cuts down on the drywall dust and much easier then hand cutting them in.
While you have everything open, you should consider installing corrugated piping between floors and rooms that are empty for future running low voltage wiring like network cables, Satellite TV cables, intercom cables, security cables (sensory & cameras), and who knows what they will come up with next. It is very easy and cheap to do this while the building is being made. You don't even need to buy one cable, but if you try to do this later. You never know what you might hit., like power, gas, AC lines. If that happens you might be replacing tens of thousands of dollars of equipment or burning down a house. Here in German, Brick houses are built on an offset method. Meaning that the first floor's exterior wall has the thickest walls, the second floor is a little thinner so the floor partially rests on top of the first floor's exterior wall and so on with each floor. Commercial buildings have more fire standards, so this is not done with them. THIS makes it very hard to aim correctly and actual small brick houses shift and twist over time. Germans even though long steel rods through old houses to squeeze them to stabilize the building. Long story short, I was drilling nowhere near where I wanted to be, but I didn't hit anything at these. I Could have very easily with four 220V power lines within about 6 inches of where I was drilling. Sorry, I haven't been watching your videos lately, so I am a little later on my advice. PS new building fire code for even homes might require fire-rated tubing and fire pudding penetrations. From the look of your construction, I doubt you will have to do anything. Pro-tip on pre-installing tubing for future wire runs. Plug or cap the tubes when finished. This will prevent bugs and rodents from easily using them. If you glue a cap onto the tube. Make sure to make the tube a little longer to cut off the cap later.
Hey, If you want to try to make your porch post invisible cover them with mirrors either plastic or glass and it will be hard to see them, It works amazing and they will blend in to where you live. Well worth a try.
House is coming along good. No, it's coming along REAL good. From what I can see your doing everything right. No short-cuts with you ! And like always.....Take care👍
That concrete porch is amazing. I even called my husband in the room to see it. We've never seen anything like that before. Will you go over the cost of having that done? That was our first thought is how expensive doing that must have been.
Interested to see the completed exterior aesthetics. The mountains are my joy. I've always thought homes in the mountains should sort of blend into the background...as if they are part of the mountain landscape and not loud, bright, blemish. Just my thoughts. You guys have come a long way. Beautiful progress on your dreams. ☺️
Please do a video of just the views from the porch and windows. Maybe pause and count to 20 and maybe add soft music. Great job. Thank you and I am enjoying your build.
I love that concrete deck and the whole project. When there's grass out on the non-driveway bits it'll be amazing to look out over. I would also watch a nice ASMR video of views and wind sounds from different angles.
Hi, I was looking at your staircase and was wondering why you insulated the walls, but left the steps open? Great series, love looking at the progress you guys are making.
Good morning, the wafers are sold in a 10 watt and 14watt output. If you purchased both, each wafer is powered by its designated driver. Do not mix in the ceiling.
The reason it’s the last one that gets you is that, when you’re close to finishing, your brain starts working on the next project instead of keeping focus on the current one. Solution: kid your brain that you still have one more to do! It actually works!
FYI, I recommend insulating under the stairs. It reduces the noise of people running up and down the stairs.
I am having that done on our remodel
Another benefit of using the Rockwool insulation on interior walls and ceils is it increase the fire rating, it’s not just for noise and heating and cooling. 👍
House is coming along great. I miss some of your old content on the homestead of gardening and the chickens. Hopefully you get this done soon so it can get back to animals.
This guy has some serious SKILLS!
Always enjoyed watching your wife's canning videos really saved our backsides when the plandemic hit Thank You.
Great to hear! As soon as we get this house built we'll be back to it.
Your channel was the nudge I needed to can roast beef. I was always kind of afraid of it. Jamie made it so simple. Thank you!
Miss your canning videos so much. Hope ycan finsigthe house soon without any setbacks. Take care.
Glad to hear you'll be filling your pantry again in the future. Sure do miss Jamie.
Plan..demic! Good one!
WOW! That huge wrap-around concrete deck is MASSIVE! Amazing! Very smart to install as much sound dampening insulation as possible... itchy, or not!
Let the experienced guys do the drywall work. My uncle did that for a living. There are tricks to that trade. Best wishes.
Magnificent!!! You must be so proud and excited!!! TY for sharing your build!!! I think y'all deserve some kind of prize, but having this gorgeous home WILL be the grand prize for all your perseverance through this process!

glad you got the framing done before the price of lumber went super bonkers , did drywall go up like crazy too ?
Everything is up. It’s ridiculous. But definitely dodged a bullet on framing lumber!
Looking great. So happy for y”all.

That area where you say to sod, maybe make it a flower garden or prairie. Some thing you dont have to do maintenance on all the time
What a beautiful view yall have!
May I ask why you decided on a concrete deck instead of conventional framing and decking?
Watch the other videos, they explain that
Please give me the readers digest version

Hi, I was looking at your staircase and was wondering why you insulated the walls, but left the steps open? Great series, love looking at the progress you guys are making.
Good morning, the wafers are sold in a 10 watt and 14watt output. If you purchased both, each wafer is powered by its designated driver. Do not mix in the ceiling.
The whole house is 14 watt units
Looking good! :)
That is a long run between outlets on the exterior. They are always adding 'must haves' for outdoor use so you can't have enough!
Each of those exterior outlets is on a different circuit.
