I’m a city boy and I just sat through your entire 2 hour video and I must say it was an absolute joy watching you men work. You are magicians of your craft. Thank you!
I have 46 years as a carpenter. You build exactly the way I was taught. Do it with pride and do it right. Best video I've seen. Great group of guys making the content educational and funny. Loved every minute. Beautiful job.
I have been a carpenter for over 35 years, the last 25 as a trim carpenter and the crew is what makes or breaks the job. Having guys you would like to go fishing with working next to you makes the work so much more enjoyable. When everyone pulls their weight nothing is too heavy.
@@user-kh8cc4bx7ySimple really. You have two ears and one mouth so listen twice as much as you talk. And basically, the same rule for life, just don’t be a dick. Best wishes from Scotland.
@@user-kh8cc4bx7y don't shy away from new or hard work because you haven't done it, ask if you don't know, measure twice cut once, work smarter not harder, respect peoples stuff, try to have thick skin.. don't take shit to heart. there is always something new to learn, don't ever think you know it all, good luck! that applies to any trade lol
Just watched your vid and it was great. Jamie, you inspire me. Last month I severed 3 three of my fingers rebuilding my front porch and I’ve been pretty down. My home is about 140 years old. I’m a weekend warrior, always working on something. Watching you work with your bionic hand lets me know I’ll get back to fixing things very soon. I just subscribed and I’ll keep watching you guys make beautiful homes.
I noticed his bionic hand too and thought it was awesome that he (or somebody) came up with something to allow him to keep doing the job. I hope that you too can get or come up with something to help you keep doing what you like doing. Any time something like this happens, it's not just the physical injury, it's the mental injury too. Hope you and your front porch come along just fine.
Hang in there. Its got to be so hard as the injury is not just a physical one. Alto that's probably the easiest one to fix. Give your emotional response the respect and attention it deserves. I wish you the best.
I came here just to fast forward to a point to check out the mountain view and then move on, but I actually watched the entire 2 hour long video from start to finish and I don't regret a minute of it. You guys are not only great at building houses, your in front of and behind-of camera skills are also amazing. Very entertaining to watch. I'm doing some building (sheds and barns) on my own property in my free time, but I'm not a craftsman...which I really regret. I love working wtih wood and also with concrete and the physical labor outside, especially when the weather is nice. In my next life, I'll be a craftsman and build some nice houses, with a nice crew. =)
When I read your comment I was just starting to watch the video and didn't see how long the video was, went back to it and said "holy shit it really is 2 hours" and then still proceeded to watch the entire thing lol
@@Marcosasf1346 I assume you meant to say "...never too late to..." and I totally agree in general. But in my case health reasons make it impossible to start a craftsman career, sadly. But I do what I can as a hobby, so I'm getting some enjoyment and satisfaction anyways. =)
Never thought I'd watch a 2-hour long RUclips video about a house being built from scratch but I'm all for it. What an entertaining use of my time. Your crew seems like quite the congenial bunch. Thanks.
I'm a data scientist and exclusively work at a desk, yet I find this type of work very inspiring and relaxing to watch (: Thank you for putting in the time!
Im not even a carpenter. I’m in the oil business. But I’d love to work around this group of guys. This playfulness attitude on the site is refreshing but you can tell in the actual work that these guys are real pros. Love this level of camaraderie and the banter is infectious.
Conversely, you can definitely understand how much can go wrong - or just slow - on a site that has either a rotating crew that changes constantly or doesn’t work well together.
I am a 77 year old grandma and I was hooked from start to finish. Amazing job and camaraderie ! I just had hoped to see all the furnishings inside the house as well, but I will make an imaginary decor as if I was moving in!
As a german, working in construction seeing you guys build is always fun to me. Like... we build treehouses that look more stable, yet your buildings obviously seem to work just fine. Makes you wonder what the "best" way of doing it really is. Nice Video ^^
Because in germany the only thing build with plywood are treehouses and garden stuff. Also the amount of nails is horrifying for a german. We build houses with stone and insulation. If we were to build like the firms in the US we would be cold and on fire.
I'm not a builder but I've just built a house near Moscow. A house with 55 cm brick walls and 30 cm concrete floors. I was laughing when I saw how the guys poured a thin layer of concrete on the ground and called that a foundation. Climate makes a huge difference!
@@alexkachur6358 We have hot AF climate here in India but even we don't pour such shallow foundations. It goes much deeper with rebars and anchor pillars filled with concrete. No hate but its amusing to see these builds. We also have no concept of drywall / hollow walls.Bricks or concrete blocks even for internal walls all the way.
Loved your video and did watch the whole 2 hours. I was a daddy’s girl who was always around him when he was building. He actually built the house in 1949 where grew up. Learned how to properly use tools and he taught me how to paint. All this to say to you young guys, if you have daughters, share your knowledge and skills. You are very talented and would be wonderful mentors for your children.
Dude, your trailer backing skills UP the mountain are mind-boggling! Gorgeous house but more important, it looks like yall had a blast doing it! Thanks for all the tips!
I came here to say almost the same thing, he said he was about a mile from the job site, he did in in reverse with a trailer...I can't get up my 900 foot driveway with out 4 attempts!
I'm in college right now studying architecture. The one thing I'm starting to figure out is many architects don't understand how the building process even works, and that includes myself to a degree. I enjoyed every minute of this video and I'll definetly be watching more of your stuff!
You don't go to Architecture College to learn the "Means and Methods" of contracting. You go to expand your thoughts on design. Design in this case was truly lacking. From orientation to external angles of inclination and declination. It was a sad waste of a nice site. Anybody can be a wood hack son. Learn to think first.
@@chaz7608 What a bunch of pretentious bullshit. No , anybody can not be a "wood hack " and these men did a great job and the house is very aesthetically pleasing. You're probably the type of person that likes "abstract art" .
From a European perspective this is in fact a joke! Lol Building a weedy foundation in a few hours is of course not going to be as good as building a full foundation plate, that could support a wet building technique with proper bricks. I wonder how long this house is going to stay standing...
@@fireskorpion396 which is generally far longer than what the person paying for it's construction needed so it's fine. It's not a flex to build something 10000x times stronger than it needs to be, it's just bad engineering. Good engineering is building what you need with enough padding to avoid trouble, and thus costing only what's necessary. It's a huge waste of money to build something that'll last a thousand years, or even a few hundred. No one wants to waste that kind of money. American houses are built just fine; your brick houses are huge wastes of money, your money, that won't benefit you at all, but someone 300 years later. Absurd.
I run projects for a large commercial builder, and it is incredibly refreshing to see this level of quality on a residential scale. These guys really are Master of All Trades!
I love how openly gay the guys at Perkins are. The new America. I'm positive that they could get a teevee series at Disney. Building homes and being fabulously flamboyant!!
@@thinkcasting3182 why would this need to be pointed out? In what world would you saying this add to any conversation? Cant do anything about growing old but you definitely need to grow up.
As a project manager in the Danish construction industry I really enjoyed your video. Seeing how different you build your houses compared to in scandinavia is just so exciting to watch :D
As an austrian some things give my total anxiety 😀 - I love the american wood work inside houses, but the whole structure/basement stuff is just creepy as fuck.
@@sebokilltvyeah man - also the wood just dug in the earth lol - no protection. Nothing. Left to rot away. And the nails driven from the side into everything - jeezus. In Germany this house Wouk have no approval 😮
Thanks, you guys are so nice and it’s so enjoyable to see you working together. Also very educational for me, I don’t come from construction and your professionalism really shows.
After helping design and build buildings and houses for 52 years, I am amazed you guys put raw wood supports surrounded by dirt. Even con crete is a bad idea. My suggestion is to pour a base such as a minimum 12" diameter concrete with a Simpson base plate adapter and bolt in the concrete. The Simpson base plate has an internal galvanized U-shaped plate that raises the bottom of the wood post up about 1/2 inch above the base, and helps prevent rotting. Based on your work I'm sure you know this.
@@Gnaritas42 Sure but their kids or grandkids will lose out on what could be a multimillion dollar home because theyve got wood that is 10% less expensive
@@charwest5892 they're not building it for their kids or grandkids, they're building it for them and 10% less is a often 50k or more these days, build what you need, it's not for posterity. Their kids/grandkids will live in an entirely different world of robot-assembled cheap homes, times change too fast now to waste money building stuff for 100 years down the road.
Im giving this video a FAT like not only for building\making all that stuff but especially for EDITING! That's a huge amount of work! Job well done guys!
Very clever edit of the original series. You edited it in such a way that even me who watched the series was drawn in like it was a whole new build. Nice job! A carpenter who moonlights as a video editor....Who would have thunk that?.... 👍👍👍
Its was amazing to me how skilled you and your crew are. Not just great carpenters but you guys are a jack of all trades. Drywall, painting, cabinets. I absolutely loved your commentary throughout the build. I new nothing about how much was involved in building a house. WOW!
The build is great , but its the process of how you get there. The ins and outs of any great story are the people who make up the cast . This is some cast of characters !!!
My neighbor have two daughters that just HAD to get kittens (one each, per the formula demonstrated on this show) that were difficult to find. My neighbor traveled from Colorado to Arizona and back for his daughters. Now I hear that folks must go back to work and give up their besties.
I thoroughly enjoyed watching this build! As a person that comes from a country where masonry is used exclusively, it is such an absolute joy to watch a timber build go up! Wow!
Perkin Bros & Crew - just wanted to hop on and thank y'all for the years of work yall have put into this channel. When I found yall I was new to construction and you had 70K subscribers - and now you have gotten to over 800K! I just passed my exams and received my GC license and I am 100% honest when I say I had a few flashbacks to videos over the years when taking the practical portion of the exam - thanks for the little boost and keep up the good work!
This was for the first time I'm watching you guys and I can't believe I just spent 2 hours watching the entire video without skipping. It's kinda satisfying seeing you guys creating this magnificent house from the scratch. You've really a seriously skilled team. Bravo guys.
It is a sleepless night, 2.56 am. Just finished watching it and i am motivated as heck. Amazing work guys. The way he backed the truck all that way with a trailer full of wood loosely attached was impressive. Also, the number of stairs Arlo has finished = 6372
Always admired folks who build their own homes and now I'm glad to let other people do it, including the Nut Job expert. Stressful and hard though your profession obviously is, it's great to see a working environment that is positive and fun. Credit to you.
What I was not expecting like many others here is -not watching the whole two hours of this documentary second by second. I loved the way you form the teams for each job. Each one of you put something of your experiences into it and it really does standout for your work. Jamie is real sport here to have brains with tons of courage to never-say-no attitude. Real team -work (err, play) for people out here who do want to but can’t afford to. Thanks for this documentation of events. 🎉
Gospel of Jesus Christ John 3:16 For God So loved the world that he gave his only Begotten Son that whosoever believes in Him should not Perish but have Everlasting Life. Jesus Christ Died for the sin of the World, If you believe in ur heart God risen Jesus from the dead and confess him with ur mouth to people you shall be saved. Jesus said I Am The only way to heaven there is no other way! Repent of urs sins (Repent means Change ur Mind turning away from sinful things and being truly sorry for it.) trust Jesus and give ur life to him He Loves you cares about you more than anyone ever will! we are saved By Grace Trough Faith!,this is sin: Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death but the gift of eternal life in our Lord Jesus Christ. Romans 3:23 For all have sined and felt short of the Glory of God. For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. Romans 1:18-21, 23 KJV Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with men nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 REPENT OR YOU WILL PERISH REPENT AND BELIEVE THE GOSPEL GET RIGHT WITH GOD LORD JESUS CHRIST.
I’ve been framing for 10 years in a completely different area in the US and it’s absolutely mind blowing how everything I just watched was identical to a day of work for me. The process, the mistakes and struggles, the visitors, the jokes, the rain and indecisiveness (which varies from employee to boss), except for the brands, materials and some strategies used this mirrored a typical work day. I also want to give the boss(es) some props for things like the scaffolding, you’d boys would shit your pants seeing the way we sometimes do things haha
I loved every minute of your 2 hours video, and the best thing I really loved besides the high quality craftsmanship is the brotherhood of your team. I wish y'all the very best, and I know for fact that you will be busy with so many customers as long as you keep your quality, and your brotherhood. God bless!
Gents - I've been in the Information Technology field pert near 20 years and I watch your videos every time a new one pops up. Great teamwork and attention to detail - not to mention a little jobsite fun here and there. I secretly want to be in the trades even though I'm already 45. It's honest and respectable work.
Awesome Chemistry on this crew! Was in the field for about 10yrs outta high school as my chosen career field (Love working with my hands and the pride in work). I had the misfortune of working on some crews that were just bad attitude's all around. Thankfully I landed on a great crew like this for the majority of my career. Outstanding work boys!!
I sat through this entire build, rewinded some of the funny scenes and just had a blast. I feel like I know you guys personally and are some really great friends. Good job you guys.
I love these older videos. The background music is great, crew messing around with each other and the time lap footage. Very fun and relaxing to watch.
I built my house 22 years ago because of the crappy builders in the area. If they were like you a would’ve hired you guys. Great work. You guys take pride on building a quality house. You have a great team. Keep up the great work!
As someone who works in home construction in South Africa i always joke about America's paper buildings but damn im jealous of the light materials you guys get to work with. It must be a god send when yiure trying to move material up hills like this
Pen and Paper Science 2 weeks ago (edited) I'm a data scientist and exclusively work at a desk, yet I find this type of work very inspiring and relaxing to watch (: Thank you for putting in the time! Did you just straight up copy this mans comment lmao
I don’t know building. I don’t know any of this. But this video - start to finish …. Just amazing! I was glued to the screen watching, laughing, learning…. Saved for sure! Keep doing what your doing. What an awesome group of dudes 👏🏼
I've been at the building for a long time now. and now I'm retired. I've loved ever single minute of this video and I loved it. I felt as if I was there. What a brilliant job you guys did. I'm looking to seeing lots more videos. So good luck to you all. and thanks for sharing it with us.
The fact that Jaime painted that railing screw black, tells me everything I need to know about y'all's quality of craftsmanship and character... ❤️❤️❤️
I never would have looked to watch a home building video, but this has been genuinely amazing... and reversing the trailer up the mountain, awesome! Thanks!
I am a software developer all the from India. The only work that I do that needs me to physically move is my evening workout, yet I feel that there is nothing more awe aspiring then seeing a few people put in there part bit by bit to build a house. I love the humor and fun you guys have that keeps me stuck to almost 2hr long videos in one go. Thanks a lot for giving us such great content.
What a great bunch of guys! I feel like so much of what makes any job bearable is the people you're working with. I could do any job if I had coworkers like this.
Loss for word, great job building this home from ground up and filming. Such a terrific crew and sub-contractors of expieranced and doing class a work. I was a custom home builder in Texas and California. I told my daughter to watch this video to under stand what I did for a living. Ive been retired for twenty years. I love the new materials and tools you have today. Again great job to you all, your workmanship and attitude is great. True craftsmen..
I never though I am gonna sit there and watch how a house is build with 2 cents in my pocket but here we are... what a refreshing content. Interesting to see how a wooden house is built. Good job guys : )
I love how this video showcases not just the technical aspects of building a home, but also the camaraderie and joy that comes with it. The emotions and laughter shared among the crew make this project feel so much more than just construction-it’s about creating a place where memories will be made. Truly heartwarming!
The camaraderie you guys have is insane. We have the same at my “job” only i don’t necessarily think of it as a job for that very reason. When you work with a group of guys that you get along with so well it doesn’t feel like work more like a hobby you love. I have my GB-98 here in New Mexico but I’m actually a plumber by trade. It’s videos like this that remind me why i do what i do and why i love the guys i work with. We’re not just co-workers were family and we get our families together almost every weekend. Great job guys you all do beautiful work and definitely take pride in what you do.
Love your content its super amazing to see the process and how you get to the finished product and the many intricacies involved with building a house that will last
This video was awesome!! You guys should have your own TV show. Informative and funny so it makes for a good watch. Great Job guys the house is amazing!!
It looks like that you are watching a classic movie and these plain hard working guys are the real stars. Respect for these guys. Once you watch it without skipping any part you get connected with the whole team.
Wow. If i can ever afford to build a house, i want you guys. All i see is a love and pride in your craft, all the while having fun. The attention to detail truly looks like you all strive for perfection. 👏🙏👏🙏
First time viewing your channel and loved the house build. Makes me want you fellows to come build me one! Alas I’m 80 and past that part. Husband did a lot of building. We had a farm and he taught shop class. He’s gone but can relate to you!
Done lots of residential work but this is top notch. Above and beyond at every moment. Great group of guys taking pride in their work. Wish I had a full crew taking the same pride in their work! Subscribed!
Used to "borrow" a friend's home on the crest of Watia Point overlooking the Natahala every year in late spring. A wonderful area near Bryson City. Great folks in the western part of my home state. Beautiful work from your team.
I couldn’t finish watching the end of this video yesterday- I had to go to work. I really enjoy your videos. I watch 2 videos over the weekend and my wife just kept saying - u still watching that- I took her out for dinner so she could be quiet. Great work guys.
I was amazed by those guys...absolutely Stunning 👌🏻... The most i like how could they work with joyful..... I can imagine anyone would be happy to work with these Gentleman's..... Thank you for Sharing this episode....i do enjoy it Be safe.... Greetings from Kingdom of Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦 🌴 💐
what a fun group.. this is how jobs are supposed to be like.. putting in hard work, making great money and having fun all same time.. wish my office job could be like that..
Thanks for all the info you find and share. I appreciate you guys. It seems like it's never enough with what we are doing. Never the less just keep pushing on right.
As a Brazilian, it's weird how almost the whole house is made of wood. Over here, the only things made of wood are doors and the stuff to put the roof tiles on.
You're absolutely right, @guihermeborracha7412. I'm constructing a quad in Recreio, and there's not a single piece of wood involved in the process. The dismissive comment above about sheet metal shows pure ignorance.
There's not a lot of days that make me regret leaving the trades to go back to school but there are definitely some. Watching you guys try to pull rocks with a mini, that is definitely not one of those days I miss.
I absolutely love these longform build videos. It's such a great reference for projects at home or upgrades, especially when you guys do the time saving tips for cutting at large scale.
Will you show additional content on the kitchen remodel you guys were working on?? Thanks for your dedication to your channel it doesn’t go unnoticed the time and effort you put in. Thanks for making the trades great again.
Just found your video, and I watched the hole thing. It's a real pleasure watching a real tight crew. I'm gifted like you guys. I'm a perfectionist and like things done right the 1st time. Thanks for including the tricks of your trade. I'm going to watch more of your videos and want to say thanks for taking me along on your build it's a real pleasure. I'm a cat lover. Your guy doesn't know what he's talking about cats rock! I also have a Golden Retriever. Cheers
I want to hire you guys! We’ve had pretty bad experiences with contractors - you guys are a breath of fresh air! I am a woman and I learned a lot and enjoyed watching you handle each task! Great job
I hope the people this house is for really appreciate how well done this place is and the hard work put in! I can't express how impressed I am of the work you guys do. Stumbled across the video and couldn't stop watching! Well done.
Hi guys. I'm a retired British builder with a carpentry background trade. I thoroughly enjoyed your video and was very impressed by the quality of your work and the obvious team spirit that you have. I'm enjoying a relaxing holiday over here in the Philippines with my Filipina wife and her family and will show them your video tomorrow. It will give them a few pointers for any projects that they are planning. Keep up the good work. Brendan 😊
I love how this video is chill music and normal voice. Other videos like this have a fast paced sound and talking SO fast such anxiety after the video. This one is fun and chill!
First video I've watched and I watched the whole way through in one sitting and subscribed. This is great! As an HVAC tech that got in the game later in life I do appreciate not pretending you didn't nail the lineset and just covering it up. Obviously you have more reason to get it fixed rather then cover it up but I just wish everyone had this level of integrity at all times.
I love you guys I can't believe how much I watch you guys daily, this is what a loving family looks like, I live in Kansas City MO and is homeless 😢 one day I will find a cheap fixer upper and have you guys refurbished it, I love your work and relationships ❤
You showed up on my feed by random chance, but all I gotta say is awesome cabin in an incredible location, super entertaining and informative video documenting it all, and overall, top bunch of people. Loved every minute of it. Keep it up! Thank you for a super short and fun 2 hours
I know building codes are different from state to state, country to country. One thing that isn't different? Quality of workmanship. You guys consistently build at a level that I can truly appreciate.
This is so interesting! I live in Germany, in a wooden house as well. Not a traditional one, but a modern, timber frame construction one. However, the walls are easily three times as thick, and the floor joists are not 1x12 like in this house, but something along the lines of 4x12 (although the spacing isn't as tight), just to give one example. Seems like we like to overbuild over here, or you like saving money a little too much.
I'm just commenting so that i can be remembered as one of the human in the world who just watch this beautiful video of a group of a man who put a real dedication on working something that was ended up sooo... sooo.... beautiful. And for those who just find this video.. you just found a true hidden gems from youtube!! cherss..😉
This was an interesting insight into building a house. It’s different to how they are built here in the UK as we tend to build the outer walls out of breeze blocks and a layer of bricks. The inner walls are built differently, with metal instead of wood. Then it is plaster board to finish the walls. I remember joining my dad of the work site when I was younger and really enjoyed watching this house being built.
@Pasuha. material resources and at the time it was about standardization and building speed. I think in the beginning of our construction industry speed and efficiency was the priority.
@@pasuha.6452 It really just depends where it's being built. A lot of houses in the southeast are concrete block, because hurricanes. This area, I'm sure they don't have to worry about that, and you can really put a lot of insulation in a wood framed house for cold winters.
My grandparents had a house like this. The BIG problem, is that the hillside slides out over the years and eventually undermines the foundations. You get these big cracks that grow wider and wider, it's quite scary to see. You really want to spend the extra money to stabilize the build site, including deep downhill pilings and terracing, if you aren't planning on just burning the place down when you are too old to live there anymore.
Good point. Another "cringe-worthy" thought (which would be more of a concern) I look at all of the great forest around them on all sides for miles and miles. Beautiful, yes but I did wonder about forest fires.
@@ThePianoMan1953 wow. what an accurate comparison. comparing the slide of the hillsite (which is 100% going to happen over time) to a forest fire (which might happen or not). only cringe-worthy thing i see is you
@@derschmeske3618 LOL Sounds like I bruised your little ego. You are really VERY insecure aren't you? It is not 100% at all that the building will move even a little bit. In fact, I think the building will be just fine for hundreds of years. Forest fires, however, are a common and even frequent natural occurrence brought on by a simple lightening strike; burning millions of acres in forests EVERY YEAR. Once they start, almost nothing can stop them. That forest will burn several times in years to come. You have the right to your opinion, just as you have a right to be a rude ass hole that you so obviously are. That is the only thing that is 100%.

Just watched your vid and it was great. Jamie, you inspire me. Last month I severed 3 three of my fingers rebuilding my front porch and I’ve been pretty down. My home is about 140 years old. I’m a weekend warrior, always working on something. Watching you work with your bionic hand lets me know I’ll get back to fixing things very soon. I just subscribed and I’ll keep watching you guys make beautiful homes.
I noticed his bionic hand too and thought it was awesome that he (or somebody) came up with something to allow him to keep doing the job. I hope that you too can get or come up with something to help you keep doing what you like doing. Any time something like this happens, it's not just the physical injury, it's the mental injury too. Hope you and your front porch come along just fine.
Hang in there. Its got to be so hard as the injury is not just a physical one. Alto that's probably the easiest one to fix. Give your emotional response the respect and attention it deserves. I wish you the best.
Love and rapid healing to you brother 💙💙💙
I came here just to fast forward to a point to check out the mountain view and then move on, but I actually watched the entire 2 hour long video from start to finish and I don't regret a minute of it. You guys are not only great at building houses, your in front of and behind-of camera skills are also amazing. Very entertaining to watch. I'm doing some building (sheds and barns) on my own property in my free time, but I'm not a craftsman...which I really regret. I love working wtih wood and also with concrete and the physical labor outside, especially when the weather is nice. In my next life, I'll be a craftsman and build some nice houses, with a nice crew. =)
I did exactly the same. Great video
When I read your comment I was just starting to watch the video and didn't see how long the video was, went back to it and said "holy shit it really is 2 hours" and then still proceeded to watch the entire thing lol
Same PFP?
I don't know how old you are, but i can definitely tell you that it's never to late to start doing what you love
@@Marcosasf1346 I assume you meant to say "...never too late to..." and I totally agree in general. But in my case health reasons make it impossible to start a craftsman career, sadly. But I do what I can as a hobby, so I'm getting some enjoyment and satisfaction anyways. =)
Never thought I'd watch a 2-hour long RUclips video about a house being built from scratch but I'm all for it. What an entertaining use of my time. Your crew seems like quite the congenial bunch. Thanks.
Me too.
I'm a data scientist and exclusively work at a desk, yet I find this type of work very inspiring and relaxing to watch (:
Thank you for putting in the time!
It’s their music
Never met a data scientist that works on a desk, most work at a desk, but that’s cool af that you get to work on a desk!!!
@repentandbelieveinJesusChrist9 who is this Jesus you speak 🗣️ of?
I think us desk nerds are the ones dreaming about this the most almost haha
Who wouldn't, building some cool stuff with the boys outdoors.
Im not even a carpenter. I’m in the oil business. But I’d love to work around this group of guys. This playfulness attitude on the site is refreshing but you can tell in the actual work that these guys are real pros. Love this level of camaraderie and the banter is infectious.
You can tell when everyone on the crew has love for each other, and the fact that you’re all talented puts it over the top!
Conversely, you can definitely understand how much can go wrong - or just slow - on a site that has either a rotating crew that changes constantly or doesn’t work well together.
Lot good looking men. Wow , paradise in the mountain top.
I am a 77 year old grandma and I was hooked from start to finish. Amazing job and camaraderie ! I just had hoped to see all the furnishings inside the house as well, but I will make an imaginary decor as if I was moving in!
I am also 74 yr old who loves cats. I enjoyed this video and it brought me much Joy.
@@judypausina6278 Ditto on the love cats!
As a german, working in construction seeing you guys build is always fun to me. Like... we build treehouses that look more stable, yet your buildings obviously seem to work just fine.
Makes you wonder what the "best" way of doing it really is. Nice Video ^^
What is it that makes these building seem "less stable" than a tree house?
Because in germany the only thing build with plywood are treehouses and garden stuff. Also the amount of nails is horrifying for a german.
We build houses with stone and insulation. If we were to build like the firms in the US we would be cold and on fire.
Thought the same thing, but different cultures I guess.
Also in the start the concrete foundations, poured directly into the earth seemed weird to me
I'm not a builder but I've just built a house near Moscow. A house with 55 cm brick walls and 30 cm concrete floors. I was laughing when I saw how the guys poured a thin layer of concrete on the ground and called that a foundation. Climate makes a huge difference!
@@alexkachur6358 We have hot AF climate here in India but even we don't pour such shallow foundations. It goes much deeper with rebars and anchor pillars filled with concrete. No hate but its amusing to see these builds. We also have no concept of drywall / hollow walls.Bricks or concrete blocks even for internal walls all the way.
Loved your video and did watch the whole 2 hours. I was a daddy’s girl who was always around him when he was building. He actually built the house in 1949 where grew up. Learned how to properly use tools and he taught me how to paint. All this to say to you young guys, if you have daughters, share your knowledge and skills. You are very talented and would be wonderful mentors for your children.
Dude, your trailer backing skills UP the mountain are mind-boggling! Gorgeous house but more important, it looks like yall had a blast doing it! Thanks for all the tips!
I came here to say almost the same thing, he said he was about a mile from the job site, he did in in reverse with a trailer...I can't get up my 900 foot driveway with out 4 attempts!
Yeah that shit was insane.
Well backing down a hill is literally impossible
@@annalenaguptara7130 why is that?
@@annalenaguptara7130😂 Never thought of it that way. Both are insane and impressive.
I'm in college right now studying architecture. The one thing I'm starting to figure out is many architects don't understand how the building process even works, and that includes myself to a degree. I enjoyed every minute of this video and I'll definetly be watching more of your stuff!
You don't go to Architecture College to learn the "Means and Methods" of contracting. You go to expand your thoughts on design. Design in this case was truly lacking. From orientation to external angles of inclination and declination. It was a sad waste of a nice site. Anybody can be a wood hack son. Learn to think first.
@@chaz7608 What a bunch of pretentious bullshit. No , anybody can not be a "wood hack " and these men did a great job and the house is very aesthetically pleasing. You're probably the type of person that likes "abstract art" .
@@chaz7608 I think they did a fine job, and that their craftsmanship is really outstanding.
@@chaz7608 you've definitely got the architects mentality
@@jimmynuetronrblx8628 That in itself is up to interpretation.
Wow building a house is no joke. So much involved and you guys do pretty much everything yourselves. Very impressive.
From a European perspective this is in fact a joke! Lol
Building a weedy foundation in a few hours is of course not going to be as good as building a full foundation plate, that could support a wet building technique with proper bricks.
I wonder how long this house is going to stay standing...
@FireSkorpion what a stupid and useless comment congratulations. Building codes are different all over. Pretty simple.
@@fireskorpion396 Probably 300 years given that foundation is essentially concrete by itself.
@@JeronimoStilton14 I mean the house, not the foundation
Because houses in the US have a habit of lasting what feels like a few decades
@@fireskorpion396 which is generally far longer than what the person paying for it's construction needed so it's fine. It's not a flex to build something 10000x times stronger than it needs to be, it's just bad engineering. Good engineering is building what you need with enough padding to avoid trouble, and thus costing only what's necessary. It's a huge waste of money to build something that'll last a thousand years, or even a few hundred. No one wants to waste that kind of money. American houses are built just fine; your brick houses are huge wastes of money, your money, that won't benefit you at all, but someone 300 years later. Absurd.
I run projects for a large commercial builder, and it is incredibly refreshing to see this level of quality on a residential scale. These guys really are Master of All Trades!
This is such a nice, positive workplace environment. You can tell it isn't fake.
Solid vibe and work, boys.
I love how openly gay the guys at Perkins are. The new America. I'm positive that they could get a teevee series at Disney. Building homes and being fabulously flamboyant!!
@@thinkcasting3182 openly gay?
@@thinkcasting3182 why would this need to be pointed out? In what world would you saying this add to any conversation? Cant do anything about growing old but you definitely need to grow up.
@@thinkcasting3182 you're the kind of guy I would absolutely hate to be forced to work with.
As a project manager in the Danish construction industry I really enjoyed your video. Seeing how different you build your houses compared to in scandinavia is just so exciting to watch :D
As an austrian some things give my total anxiety 😀 - I love the american wood work inside houses, but the whole structure/basement stuff is just creepy as fuck.
@@sebokilltvyeah man - also the wood just dug in the earth lol - no protection. Nothing. Left to rot away. And the nails driven from the side into everything - jeezus. In Germany this house Wouk have no approval 😮
@@bimmerspov5357In Germany it's law that your house requires to hold up to 20 people right? 😆
@@FamiliarAnomaly20 ppl? Even 1000 would be nothing to our houses. :D And they dont fly away if they get tired from a Hurricane..:P
@@bimmerspov5357 The wood is already pre-treated against rot/bugs. Same wood as decking
Thanks, you guys are so nice and it’s so enjoyable to see you working together. Also very educational for me, I don’t come from construction and your professionalism really shows.
Hey thanks!!!
@@PerkinsBuilderBrothers I gotta ask: any regrets about not setting the house back about another 100 to 200 feet so you have a yard?
Like everyone else I couldn't believe I would watch the entire 2 hour video without fast-forwarding. What a pleasure! You guys rock!
Is really interesting to be watching, very lovely
After helping design and build buildings and houses for 52 years, I am amazed you guys put raw wood supports surrounded by dirt. Even con crete is a bad idea. My suggestion is to pour a base such as a minimum 12" diameter concrete with a Simpson base plate adapter and bolt in the concrete. The Simpson base plate has an internal galvanized U-shaped plate that raises the bottom of the wood post up about 1/2 inch above the base, and helps prevent rotting. Based on your work I'm sure you know this.
Yep
guys like this dont build 100 year homes they build 50 year homes
@@charwest5892 which is more than enough, the buyers will be dead before then, so it suited its purpose.
@@Gnaritas42 Sure but their kids or grandkids will lose out on what could be a multimillion dollar home because theyve got wood that is 10% less expensive
@@charwest5892 they're not building it for their kids or grandkids, they're building it for them and 10% less is a often 50k or more these days, build what you need, it's not for posterity. Their kids/grandkids will live in an entirely different world of robot-assembled cheap homes, times change too fast now to waste money building stuff for 100 years down the road.
Im giving this video a FAT like not only for building\making all that stuff but especially for EDITING! That's a huge amount of work!
Job well done guys!
Very clever edit of the original series. You edited it in such a way that even me who watched the series was drawn in like it was a whole new build. Nice job! A carpenter who moonlights as a video editor....Who would have thunk that?.... 👍👍👍
Yeah I actually said and watched through it even though I seen the original it still felt new
I thought it was a new project
Its was amazing to me how skilled you and your crew are. Not just great carpenters but you guys are a jack of all trades. Drywall, painting, cabinets. I absolutely loved your commentary throughout the build.
I new nothing about how much was involved in building a house. WOW!
The build is great , but its the process of how you get there. The ins and outs of any great story are the people who make up the cast . This is some cast of characters !!!
My neighbor have two daughters that just HAD to get kittens (one each, per the formula demonstrated on this show) that were difficult to find. My neighbor traveled from Colorado to Arizona and back for his daughters. Now I hear that folks must go back to work and give up their besties.
I have to say. I absolutely love watching y’all work. The attention to detail is impressive. True craftsman.
I thoroughly enjoyed watching this build! As a person that comes from a country where masonry is used exclusively, it is such an absolute joy to watch a timber build go up! Wow!
I'm Perkins binging. This is the fourth time I've watched this. Don't you guys ever stop posting videos. Thanks.
Perkin Bros & Crew - just wanted to hop on and thank y'all for the years of work yall have put into this channel. When I found yall I was new to construction and you had 70K subscribers - and now you have gotten to over 800K! I just passed my exams and received my GC license and I am 100% honest when I say I had a few flashbacks to videos over the years when taking the practical portion of the exam - thanks for the little boost and keep up the good work!
This was for the first time I'm watching you guys and I can't believe I just spent 2 hours watching the entire video without skipping. It's kinda satisfying seeing you guys creating this magnificent house from the scratch. You've really a seriously skilled team. Bravo guys.
It is a sleepless night, 2.56 am. Just finished watching it and i am motivated as heck. Amazing work guys. The way he backed the truck all that way with a trailer full of wood loosely attached was impressive. Also, the number of stairs Arlo has finished = 6372
Always admired folks who build their own homes and now I'm glad to let other people do it, including the Nut Job expert. Stressful and hard though your profession obviously is, it's great to see a working environment that is positive and fun. Credit to you.
I wish all contractors had the attention to detail you guys put in to your builds.
Awesome job. :)
AND making it fun. Everyone is comfortable.
might help if every contractor was a youtuber xD
Love the energy of the crew! Feels like just a fun project you all are doing while it's actually your job.
You have a great crew, witty, creative, and humble. the most precious attributes a person can have. I thoroughly enjoyed the build.
What I was not expecting like many others here is -not watching the whole two hours of this documentary second by second. I loved the way you form the teams for each job. Each one of you put something of your experiences into it and it really does standout for your work. Jamie is real sport here to have brains with tons of courage to never-say-no attitude.
Real team -work (err, play) for people out here who do want to but can’t afford to. Thanks for this documentation of events. 🎉
Gospel of Jesus Christ John 3:16 For God So loved the world that he gave his only Begotten Son that whosoever believes in Him should not Perish but have Everlasting Life. Jesus Christ Died for the sin of the World, If you believe in ur heart God risen Jesus from the dead and confess him with ur mouth to people you shall be saved. Jesus said I Am The only way to heaven there is no other way! Repent of urs sins (Repent means Change ur Mind turning away from sinful things and being truly sorry for it.) trust Jesus and give ur life to him He Loves you cares about you more than anyone ever will! we are saved By Grace Trough Faith!,this is sin: Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death but the gift of eternal life in our Lord Jesus Christ. Romans 3:23 For all have sined and felt short of the Glory of God. For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. Romans 1:18-21, 23 KJV Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with men nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 REPENT OR YOU WILL PERISH REPENT AND BELIEVE THE GOSPEL GET RIGHT WITH GOD LORD JESUS CHRIST.
I’ve been framing for 10 years in a completely different area in the US and it’s absolutely mind blowing how everything I just watched was identical to a day of work for me. The process, the mistakes and struggles, the visitors, the jokes, the rain and indecisiveness (which varies from employee to boss), except for the brands, materials and some strategies used this mirrored a typical work day. I also want to give the boss(es) some props for things like the scaffolding, you’d boys would shit your pants seeing the way we sometimes do things haha
I loved every minute of your 2 hours video, and the best thing I really loved besides the high quality craftsmanship is the brotherhood of your team. I wish y'all the very best, and I know for fact that you will be busy with so many customers as long as you keep your quality, and your brotherhood. God bless!
Gents - I've been in the Information Technology field pert near 20 years and I watch your videos every time a new one pops up. Great teamwork and attention to detail - not to mention a little jobsite fun here and there. I secretly want to be in the trades even though I'm already 45. It's honest and respectable work.
I do carpentry, and I substitute teach. I like the carpentry the best. Usually. My favorite, all-time best job, however was outdoor education.
Awesome Chemistry on this crew! Was in the field for about 10yrs outta high school as my chosen career field (Love working with my hands and the pride in work). I had the misfortune of working on some crews that were just bad attitude's all around. Thankfully I landed on a great crew like this for the majority of my career. Outstanding work boys!!
I sat through this entire build, rewinded some of the funny scenes and just had a blast. I feel like I know you guys personally and are some really great friends. Good job you guys.
I don't think I have learned so much tips and tricks in any construction video ever. This was so fun to watch.
I love these older videos. The background music is great, crew messing around with each other and the time lap footage. Very fun and relaxing to watch.
I built my house 22 years ago because of the crappy builders in the area. If they were like you a would’ve hired you guys. Great work. You guys take pride on building a quality house. You have a great team. Keep up the great work!
As someone who works in home construction in South Africa i always joke about America's paper buildings but damn im jealous of the light materials you guys get to work with. It must be a god send when yiure trying to move material up hills like this
I'm a trader who works only at a computer, yet I find this sort of work really motivating and soothing to watch (:
Thank you for taking the time!

I don’t know building. I don’t know any of this. But this video - start to finish …. Just amazing! I was glued to the screen watching, laughing, learning…. Saved for sure! Keep doing what your doing. What an awesome group of dudes 👏🏼
Wow, you guys hit it out of the park on this beautiful home. What lucky owners.
Amazing views, and amazing woodworking talent.
Your team is awesome...
I've been at the building for a long time now. and now I'm retired. I've loved ever single minute of this video and I loved it. I felt as if I was there. What a brilliant job you guys did. I'm looking to seeing lots more videos. So good luck to you all. and thanks for sharing it with us.
The fact that Jaime painted that railing screw black, tells me everything I need to know about y'all's quality of craftsmanship and character... ❤️❤️❤️
I never would have looked to watch a home building video, but this has been genuinely amazing... and reversing the trailer up the mountain, awesome! Thanks!
I am a software developer all the from India. The only work that I do that needs me to physically move is my evening workout, yet I feel that there is nothing more awe aspiring then seeing a few people put in there part bit by bit to build a house. I love the humor and fun you guys have that keeps me stuck to almost 2hr long videos in one go. Thanks a lot for giving us such great content.
You should probably take notes on the part where the install the septic tank and toilet.
@@craggall 😂😂
What a great bunch of guys! I feel like so much of what makes any job bearable is the people you're working with. I could do any job if I had coworkers like this.
Loss for word, great job building this home from ground up and filming. Such a terrific crew and sub-contractors of expieranced and doing class a work. I was a custom home builder in Texas and California. I told my daughter to watch this video to under stand what I did for a living.
Ive been retired for twenty years. I love the new materials and tools you have today.
Again great job to you all, your workmanship and attitude is great. True craftsmen..
I never though I am gonna sit there and watch how a house is build with 2 cents in my pocket but here we are... what a refreshing content. Interesting to see how a wooden house is built. Good job guys : )
I'm a flooring installer. I don't dabble, I do one thing. I think it's awesome (or insane?) that you guys do so many things without sub trades.
I love how this video showcases not just the technical aspects of building a home, but also the camaraderie and joy that comes with it. The emotions and laughter shared among the crew make this project feel so much more than just construction-it’s about creating a place where memories will be made. Truly heartwarming!
The camaraderie you guys have is insane. We have the same at my “job” only i don’t necessarily think of it as a job for that very reason. When you work with a group of guys that you get along with so well it doesn’t feel like work more like a hobby you love. I have my GB-98 here in New Mexico but I’m actually a plumber by trade. It’s videos like this that remind me why i do what i do and why i love the guys i work with. We’re not just co-workers were family and we get our families together almost every weekend. Great job guys you all do beautiful work and definitely take pride in what you do.
Thanks for Building with us!!!
Love your content its super amazing to see the process and how you get to the finished product and the many intricacies involved with building a house that will last
Nice editing!
Always love a PBB movie length build!!
Love the videos and eduction, so than you! Why don’t you guys put efforts into air-tightness?
Thanks for building for us!!!
This video was awesome!! You guys should have your own TV show. Informative and funny so it makes for a good watch. Great Job guys the house is amazing!!
This is a TV show
It looks like that you are watching a classic movie and these plain hard working guys are the real stars. Respect for these guys. Once you watch it without skipping any part you get connected with the whole team.
Wow. If i can ever afford to build a house, i want you guys. All i see is a love and pride in your craft, all the while having fun. The attention to detail truly looks like you all strive for perfection. 👏🙏👏🙏
First time viewing your channel and loved the house build. Makes me want you fellows to come build me one! Alas I’m 80 and past that part. Husband did a lot of building. We had a farm and he taught shop class. He’s gone but can relate to you!
You guys do have a serious set of skills building this house, and the skills you guys have put Liam Neeson to shame. The outcome is sheer stunning.
Done lots of residential work but this is top notch. Above and beyond at every moment. Great group of guys taking pride in their work. Wish I had a full crew taking the same pride in their work! Subscribed!
Used to "borrow" a friend's home on the crest of Watia Point overlooking the Natahala every year in late spring. A wonderful area near Bryson City. Great folks in the western part of my home state. Beautiful work from your team.
I couldn’t finish watching the end of this video yesterday- I had to go to work. I really enjoy your videos. I watch 2 videos over the weekend and my wife just kept saying - u still watching that- I took her out for dinner so she could be quiet. Great work guys.
I was amazed by those guys...absolutely Stunning 👌🏻...

As a Brazilian, it's weird how almost the whole house is made of wood. Over here, the only things made of wood are doors and the stuff to put the roof tiles on.
Maybe less expensive but here in India it's more expensive than a brick house
90% of houses in brazil are made out of sheet metal
You're absolutely right, @guihermeborracha7412. I'm constructing a quad in Recreio, and there's not a single piece of wood involved in the process.
The dismissive comment above about sheet metal shows pure ignorance.
our termites aren't as bad here
in dubai we only use diamonds when we build our houses
There's not a lot of days that make me regret leaving the trades to go back to school but there are definitely some. Watching you guys try to pull rocks with a mini, that is definitely not one of those days I miss.
I absolutely love these longform build videos. It's such a great reference for projects at home or upgrades, especially when you guys do the time saving tips for cutting at large scale.
Will you show additional content on the kitchen remodel you guys were working on?? Thanks for your dedication to your channel it doesn’t go unnoticed the time and effort you put in. Thanks for making the trades great again.
Finished tour coming soon
@Repent and believe in Jesus Christ yeah, F
Just found your video, and I watched the hole thing. It's a real pleasure watching a real tight crew. I'm gifted like you guys. I'm a perfectionist and like things done right the 1st time. Thanks for including the tricks of your trade. I'm going to watch more of your videos and want to say thanks for taking me along on your build it's a real pleasure. I'm a cat lover. Your guy doesn't know what he's talking about cats rock! I also have a Golden Retriever. Cheers
That part where you backed up a mountain road was an absolutely mindblowing feat.
Just driving up one of those tight roads makes me uneasy enough.
I really enjoyed watching this build again, you guys all did such a great job!
I live in Guyana. Houses here are constructed purely with concrete and hardwood. I really enjoyed this video. Great job guys.
I want to hire you guys! We’ve had pretty bad experiences with contractors - you guys are a breath of fresh air! I am a woman and I learned a lot and enjoyed watching you handle each task! Great job
I can't believe that just spent 2 hours watching you guys build a beautiful home from the ground up. Wow!
I hope the people this house is for really appreciate how well done this place is and the hard work put in! I can't express how impressed I am of the work you guys do. Stumbled across the video and couldn't stop watching! Well done.
What a great build! I love watching y'all pay extra attention to the little details! Keep up the quality work men!
Hi guys.
I'm a retired British builder with a carpentry background trade.
I thoroughly enjoyed your video and was very impressed by the quality of your work and the obvious team spirit that you have.
I'm enjoying a relaxing holiday over here in the Philippines with my Filipina wife and her family and will show them your video tomorrow. It will give them a few pointers for any projects that they are planning.
Keep up the good work.
Brendan 😊
I love how this video is chill music and normal voice. Other videos like this have a fast paced sound and talking SO fast such anxiety after the video. This one is fun and chill!
Great to see a great team working together positive constructive way
Man what a great build video and what a great team of guys to do it with, enjoyed every minute of this one.
First video I've watched and I watched the whole way through in one sitting and subscribed. This is great! As an HVAC tech that got in the game later in life I do appreciate not pretending you didn't nail the lineset and just covering it up. Obviously you have more reason to get it fixed rather then cover it up but I just wish everyone had this level of integrity at all times.
I love you guys I can't believe how much I watch you guys daily, this is what a loving family looks like, I live in Kansas City MO and is homeless 😢 one day I will find a cheap fixer upper and have you guys refurbished it, I love your work and relationships ❤
You showed up on my feed by random chance, but all I gotta say is awesome cabin in an incredible location, super entertaining and informative video documenting it all, and overall, top bunch of people. Loved every minute of it. Keep it up! Thank you for a super short and fun 2 hours
If someone is not living in it fulltime the meth heads break in weekly.
I know building codes are different from state to state, country to country.
One thing that isn't different?
Quality of workmanship.
You guys consistently build at a level that I can truly appreciate.
This is so interesting! I live in Germany, in a wooden house as well. Not a traditional one, but a modern, timber frame construction one. However, the walls are easily three times as thick, and the floor joists are not 1x12 like in this house, but something along the lines of 4x12 (although the spacing isn't as tight), just to give one example.
Seems like we like to overbuild over here, or you like saving money a little too much.
You have no idea what you’re talking about
Aren’t they 2X12 ? 12:08.
Just noticed it after reading your comment. Not a statement lol. I know what I’d prefer 🤷🏼♀️🤭
Typical american way of doing things. Fast fast and as cheap as possible. I wouldn't take money to live in that shed.
I'm just commenting so that i can be remembered as one of the human in the world who just watch this beautiful video of a group of a man who put a real dedication on working something that was ended up sooo... sooo.... beautiful. And for those who just find this video.. you just found a true hidden gems from youtube!!
cherss..😉
This was an interesting insight into building a house. It’s different to how they are built here in the UK as we tend to build the outer walls out of breeze blocks and a layer of bricks. The inner walls are built differently, with metal instead of wood. Then it is plaster board to finish the walls. I remember joining my dad of the work site when I was younger and really enjoyed watching this house being built.
This build is even different than how we do it on west coast America
@Pasuha. material resources and at the time it was about standardization and building speed. I think in the beginning of our construction industry speed and efficiency was the priority.
@@pasuha.6452 It really just depends where it's being built. A lot of houses in the southeast are concrete block, because hurricanes. This area, I'm sure they don't have to worry about that, and you can really put a lot of insulation in a wood framed house for cold winters.
@@pasuha.6452 It's cheaper and faster to build.
My grandparents had a house like this. The BIG problem, is that the hillside slides out over the years and eventually undermines the foundations. You get these big cracks that grow wider and wider, it's quite scary to see. You really want to spend the extra money to stabilize the build site, including deep downhill pilings and terracing, if you aren't planning on just burning the place down when you are too old to live there anymore.
Good point. Another "cringe-worthy" thought (which would be more of a concern) I look at all of the great forest around them on all sides for miles and miles. Beautiful, yes but I did wonder about forest fires.
@@ThePianoMan1953 wow. what an accurate comparison. comparing the slide of the hillsite (which is 100% going to happen over time) to a forest fire (which might happen or not). only cringe-worthy thing i see is you
@@derschmeske3618 LOL Sounds like I bruised your little ego. You are really VERY insecure aren't you? It is not 100% at all that the building will move even a little bit. In fact, I think the building will be just fine for hundreds of years. Forest fires, however, are a common and even frequent natural occurrence brought on by a simple lightening strike; burning millions of acres in forests EVERY YEAR. Once they start, almost nothing can stop them. That forest will burn several times in years to come.
You have the right to your opinion, just as you have a right to be a rude ass hole that you so obviously are. That is the only thing that is 100%.
Watching you guys from start to finish was a great thing to see the house is absolutely beautiful.
Never seen so many skills in one place. You guys are impressive. And the way you get along together is awesome. Very enjoyable video.
That's one smooth looking house you built. Respect from the UK 😁👍.
