Amigo, quanto custou toda esta obra de engenharia!

I'm a civil engineer and from the point you were preparing the foundation and had very neat rebar spacer cages i was impressed. Very few people go to the bother of really perfecting those details such as rebar spacing in foundations. Then i saw that every single detail of this house build had the same attention to detail with no corners cut or botch jobs. Everything looked absolutely perfect. Unbelievable self build.

I bought my 20 acres. The banks required me to hire a contractor. I refused and spent a year putting in a 600 ft driveway, put in electic, telephone, and natural gas to an existing barn. Regraded, drainage, installed the septic system and dug the pond. Year two I dug and poured a 2000 square ft walk out basement, roughed in my 2000sq,ft ranch house and tied in the utilities. Year 3 I insulated, wired, plumbed, drywalled and finished most of the inside. The first half of year four I did all tile floors, entry ways, bathrooms, wash room and closets. At the end I contracted out the rest of the fooring and drilling the well. After three and a half years I finished building my house - debt free.

I stumbled on your channel this morning. My wife and I did a similar construction project in our early years as well. … brought back many memories. It’s hard to remember the endless energy we had in our youth! I eventually learned that you also are engineers … and also from PA. (We’re Penn Staters too … originally from Somerset county). … moved south to Virginia in the late 70’s and been here ever since. We started and ran an engineering company for 30-some years and recently sold it and retired. I’m impressed that you were obviously coached well in the power of positive thought and action. Well done! Keep up the good work !!

How nice it is to live in a warm climate! In the the video the water supply is 3 feet deep. In Russia we need to go 7-8 feet deep. And the walls of the house should be thicker. However, in the summer the temperature can be 90-100 Fahrenheit

Must admit surprised the house is a timber build with the weather the us faces , but must admit the house looks quality and the workmanship looks very good on the project .

great job!!! I built my 60x70 garage with 2 friends and my wife and kids few years back. We had about 13 zones for the heat in the floor. Radiant was the best choice. I spend about 150 a month keeping it 65deg in the winter. You did an awesome job.

Cheers to you both. My wife and I finished our self-build 15 years ago. Was the hardest thing we had ever done and it was a test in a lot of ways, but you will be extremely grateful to yourselves for the rest of your lives that you undertook this.

My husband and I built our home 7 years ago. (And yes by “built” we did it ourselves!) It was an amazing experience and one our biggest undertakings while working full time jobs and having kiddos. It paid off though! Our market value is crazy. We are getting ready to list and we plan on doing it again (much smaller/modern home this time!)

I built a garage with an apartment, and I promise you, mine doesn't have as good of a foundation, nor heated floors (at least downstairs) nor is as square, level, and plumb as yours. Well done. Very well done. Exceedingly well done. BTW, I hired out the foundation, framing, sheething/exterior, roofing, natural gas, and rough plumbing. I, along with a hired handyman (and good friend), did the electrical, HVAC, sheetrock, flooring, kitchen, shower/bathroms, low voltage wire, heated floors, and everything else, once it was dried in. I did my own trenching for electrical and low voltage in one trench, and water/sewer/natural gas in another trench. Got really good with an excavator.

Oh to be young again! Enjoy every minute together!

My grandfather built his own home. So much logistics involved. It didn't help he lived two states away from the house he was building. I remember as a boy running around the site non-stop to get everyone something, either tools, nails, or whatever was needed. We slept in campers or trucks for a few weeks. He had help with the trusses (crane) and pouring the footings. After they moved there permanently, he went on to build a 2nd garage for his shop, an apartment above it, and a carport. He re-roofed it with a metal roof later and it's on its second metal roof now. He put in hardwood floor later along with jetted tubs, bathroom heaters, and some other amenities. He was a well-driller by trade but could do anything, carpentry, finish work, plumbing, electrical, etc. I wish we had the technology to video all of that back then like this.

I've built a few houses and garages over my lifetime and the amount of work that goes into even a small reno is way more than you always imagine, working full time and doing the build in the evenings and weekends is hard core. Congratulations on the engagement as well.

Alex here - really appreciate that, and yes even the small tasks require a lot of thought and planning. Tools, materials, order of assembly, etc. I've done a little bit of plumbing on a small bathroom renovation (older video recap is on the channel) but nothing near what I've had to learn for this project. What's not pictured in the timelapse is how long I sit and think through the plan & layout before touching anything, and how much slower I probably am than a real plumber 😂

Watching the Mexican builders complete foundational work and the Amish folk complete the framing was truly impressive.

A year from now you may wish you had started today....that moved me

We can always go away in holidays or even weekends, visiting other places without a care in the world, Just pack a small tent in our small corsa and go off ! And if we don't get what we want, we can just quit our jobs for a while and get a new one rather quick, thanks to our 0 responsibility life style. But nice, you got that big house now, good luck, maybe we will take a visit and look at it and then move on! Have a nice day ^^

Didn't realize it was that easy,thanks.
