- Cost videos are both fun and painful at the same time 😅 We rounded up every penny we spent on framing and laid it all out in this video. Eventually we will have a video like this for each major phase.. so come along for the ride!

ABOUT US: We are Alex and Elaina, a couple in our 20s who are currently living on the 3-acre farm in southern Pennsylvania where Alex grew up. We have a garden, backyard chickens, and build or fix anything that we need to. We still work corporate day jobs, but are working to eventually leave the 9-5 lifestyle in favor of a self-built, debt-free, homestead on 6 acres nearby.
We upload a RUclips video every Saturday night at 7️⃣pm EST, and post daily on Instagram!

I’m a 23 year old structural engineer and my wife is a nurse. Our only debt is our current house which is around 140k worth. I’m so glad your recent video that blew up led me here! Just a week or so ago I was thinking about buying land and building a garage apartment like this as well and saving over the years before building a more long-term home as you guys are. It’s really inspiring to see you guys do it!
Awesome to hear, glad you found us!! Maybe we could barter services when it comes time to design the addition?? 😉
Yes, bring out the spreadsheet! Great work as always and thanks for sharing.
The numbers & the details GOLD!!!
Thank you for the compassion to share🙏
You’re welcome! Downloadable spreadsheet coming on our website one day 😂
Very inspiring. Great job.
Thanks for sharing!
You did a good job.
Yes I’ll buy the spreadsheet
Thank you for the in-depth total. One question - how much if you were to calculate you additional labor into the equation?
Super interested in the sheet as well. Currently pricing a 50x28 2nd story addition :)
You do a GREAT job with this channel... one of the best I've seen....
Wow, thank you!
@@MasonDixonAcres I love the Perkins Brothers channel, but their channel seems to be more entertainment? I, for sure, learned more from your videos than I've learned from them. No DOUBT About IT!
Haha we like watching Perkins also so that means a ton!!
A great video - hardly anyone who does these kinds of cost breakdown videos mentions all the glue, tape, hardware or fasteners needed or what they cost. How did you determine what types/amounts of hardware to buy? Did you buy them as part of a package (ie a structural engineer said "you have to have this many hold-downs, this kind of screw, etc) or did you buy them throughout the build as needed based on info you found on manufacturers websites?
I sat down for literally a full day to figure out all the hardware, and combed through Simpsons catalog to figure out which nails and how many I needed for each piece of hardware. It was quite a bit of effort but it’s exactly the type of tedious thing I have to do in my job as an engineer so I was prepared 😅 of course I catalogued it in a spreadsheet to help group like fasteners and create the final purchase list, which I ordered through HD as they had the best price by far. Some of the hardware was engineer spec’d, some I spec’d based simply on the connection geometry
Inspiring. Would u mind sharing the document that you have.
Crazy that cost was $10,800 just for the framing no sheathing. I framed up our house back in 2018 and it’s a 30x42 with a hip roof all the way around and used treated plywood all the way around and even treated all my pine studs inside for around $8900 total. Including the plywood sheathing. Our house has a 8/12 pitch and a wrap around front porch that adds 800sf. I also installed a indoor fireplace. Two tray ceilings. One vaulted ceiling in the living area.
Yep it hasn't gotten any cheaper that's for sure! Not even just the wood but nails, hangers, tape, etc.
Your 84 Lumber bit made me laugh. Our local 84 Lumber told us they could sell ones and twos but not hundreds of thousands of pieces of building material. Louisiana is hard on homeowner builders.
Geez I thought the south was supposed to be easier to build in!
@@MasonDixonAcres @Mason Dixon Acres So did I. We only had issues finding materials from some lumber yards. We used Southern Yellow Pine grown locally, milled in state and sold in state. You would think it would be cheaper, it's not. It's only fresher and wetter.
On a positive note, we know we did our best and like you push forward everyday making progress!
Did you buy the lumber at its high point? it has come down some
I was wondering, have you done a "test fitting" to see if you can get all your appliances, cabinets and furniture up the stairs and into the house? I was thinking about that little landing at the top of the stairs, the sharp left turn and that narrow door opening.
There's a french door out the back onto the deck for big stuff!
Would definitely be willing to pay for the spreadsheet. Nice job on the build videos!
Yes would love to get that spreasheet if you're willing. Getting ready for a build myself and want to price things out as accurately as possible. Thanks!
We are working on spreadsheets now! Hoping to have them done by mid-October!!
@@MasonDixonAcres Yey!
@@MasonDixonAcres Interested in the spreadsheets. Any updates on when they could be available. All the best.
Great video! I'd be interested in the spreadsheet.
Great! The spreadsheet will be coming soon!
Enjoyed video can understand why new construction $250 to $300 a square foot.
Would love spreadsheets
what did you use for subfloor? size/brand, thanks
23/32 T&G commodity OSB nothing special, came from HD. I think it's West Fraser Truflor
If your in York county or close to it, you could of got your trusses made at AB Martin and John H Myers may of been the cheapest supplier for your 2x's.
I got our 26' rafters from ABM. Myers actually wouldn't call me back for a quote, I wasn't a big enough account I guess 😁
@@MasonDixonAcres Myers customer service has gone down in recent years. Im a typical go to the source and talk to the people like its 2001. Cheers! enjoying the build in our keystone state
I am new here, so sorry if I ask questions you have been asked a few times.
Is this your forever piece of land? (As of today?)
Will you be living in the apartment and then build a bigger house?
No problem! Glad to have you! Yes, this is intended to be our forever piece of property. This is the first phase of our project. We may eventually build a larger addition if we expand our family or decide we need more space!
I dont think 45.000 is much at all! In Norway it would be three times as expensive!
Working to build a 40'x60' shed here soon with foundation wall and 2x6x12' full framed exterior wall. Just for the labor to build and install the framing ONLY, some crew wanted $25,000. That quote did NOT include price of materials, if this isn't highway robbery i don't know what is. Decided i better just do most of this work myself.
Yep labor is certainly not cheap, which is why we try to do as much as we can!
in which state you got that quote . i am looking for contractors to build my house . thank you
@@hichamhamimed2945 i am located in IL closer to the St. Louis, MO area. initial reaction concrete is very high still lumber prices lowest since COVID-19 hit, other materials are high but prices coming down slightly. Can update this at a later date.
Would be interested in paying for the spreadsheet. Thank you.
Working on it!! Stay tuned 🙂
Is that 40x40?
36x40
8 dollars per square foot for framing in my area
Can I get a copy of your Excel spreadsheet? Let me know how much it will cost.
Just need to organize it a bit more then it will be on our website with a link in this video description. No more than 5 bucks.
Would pay for reasonable price.
Probably no more than a coffee!
I’d like to buy the spreadsheet
It's in the works!! Will update you when available on our website
That’s half the cost today. When you were paying for that lumber the prices were ridiculous.
Don’t charge
