I can't tell you how much I love these video's. My husband was a builder/framer/finish carpenter for more than 40 years and every new build was so exciting to me how things came together. He taught our boys the trades and they chose different careers down the road but my husband Blaine always told them the only thing he had to give them was knowledge. Many times they wanted to quit but he wouldn't let them. We lost him to cancer in 2020, and today the boys are so proud he forced his knowledge upon them because as he knew, it has saved them thousands of dollars being able to build their own homes start to finish and anything else they choose to build. Watching you work and seeing your perfection in your work brings back great memories of him. He was highly respected for his quality of work and customers always were very pleased with finished product. He started way back when there were no nail guns, it was all manually nailed together. Then when they became available he got a loan and got set up. As you well know, his job became so much less labor intense and speedy. I know it's very hard work but he, like your crew thoroughly enjoyed it and was till the end strict on quality and building it to last. I just wanted to say thank you for making the video's, I just stumbled across them but I will be a steady viewer. It's almost like watching brings him back to life. He was 84 when he died and still had plans in his head for things to build when he felt better. I'm sure he's building mansions in heaven now. Thanks again for reviving pleasant memories.

Your comment is a beautiful tribute to your guy, Blaine. He sounds amazing and a one-of-a-kind! I'm so sorry you lost him and that your heart is hurting. I enjoy watching the Perkins Bros Crew videos too! If you need to talk about him or about anything please consider reaching out to me. Take good care of yourself. ❤

It's great! My shed has been completed and it turned out nice looking and sturdy and it is way better than the sheds that many of my neighbors had put up. Of course, I'm pleased with the outcome and this Ryan's kzread.infoUgkxGZedDTcDfgD7fG_uU4esfx_EgxzlY2_1 Plans was extremely useful to me as a guide.

I really appreciate the love this crew has for each other and life in general.

That's one of the reasons why I watch it

I can't tell you how much I enjoy watching your videos. I used to love to watch "BARNWOOD BUILDERS". Your wit and humor cracks me up. I live alone now since I lost my husband, but we used to do everything together. We farmed, played with cars, boats, built things, cried auctions, traveled, and loved as full as life as a couple could, but God needed him more than me. So, now you are my entertainment, now. And I THANK YOU❗❗❗♥️

I’m a 76 year old grandma and I thoroughly enjoyed watching you guys build the house in the mountains. I couldn’t be how good a job you did. I would love to see it completed.

These videos are high level high quality, love the humour, love the level of skill, from blocks to stairs you guys are absolutely amazing. The teamwork and respect that you have towards each other stands out

As a onstruction manager with almost 50 yrs in the industry this group impressed me the most of any company I have worked with. I hope I an make contact

My dad was a builder. If he was alive he'd be 125 years old. I remember watching him build as a little girl and when he got his first power saw. He and his brother worked together in their dad's business. Everything is done so quickly now!! What a kick he'd get watching these guys build!

I'm not gonna lie, I can't tell you how many times I've watched your videos, this is the best construction videos/channel on KZread.. great content and a great team.

As hard as you all work, you always look like you are all enjoying yourselves. Great job

When I was framing houses we used the metal banding from our lumber to fasten the base plate to the floor as a hinge

Excellent video , why arent you all on a TV building channel ? Once again thank you !

I love how you edit compilations like these, even when I already see every single video during the actual construction days! So I'm waiting for the next part on the great smoky mountains! You guys both build and video-edit awesome projects!

where is the damn finish video

As a lifelong Mason, watching carpenters lay block is always a special treat for me.

This whole video has been really great watching the crew manage work and fun! The Best To All The Crew!

I woke up and this was on, and I kept asking myself, "Am I dreaming? Why isn't this ending?" It went on for ever. I loved it. I wish you had more 2-3 hour whole house builds to watch when I can't sleep. HOME RUN GUYS!!!

You capture the business end of doing the job right with the human side of what it’s really like to work on a construction crew. People need to know that this is not just for the camera. It’s actually like this on site. Missed Jordan shots aimed at the dumpster 100 ft away, fixing mistakes, banter amongst the crew, who’s the best at, what knuckle head did this…, your videos have it all.

You guys are a lot of fun, informative and do some pretty good work pretty fast. I really enjoy your videos! Thanks!!!🥰🥰🥰

I can only imagine what the property value of that plot is. So gorgeous, honestly if I had that I would want an old looking cabin on it, but have a modern interior

Im surprised that the code permits using 8” block on basement walls. Especially when they are that high, regardless of the bond beams and steel. As for the parging, get a good quality bristle dust brush, and when the mud takes a bit of a set dip the brush in water and go over the mud. It will do a surprisingly nice job, and also make it easier to apply foundation coating.

This was super great! I watched the entire thing start to finish (and now its tomorrow morning!) Massive editing work, I know, and the end result was seamlessly perfect. Can't wait to see the fully-finished-to-the-end video whenever you have it ready!

Have you guys ever considered capping the deck joists with something to protect it from sitting water? Perhaps Some strips of blue shield water proofing or at minimum some ZIP tape??

I LOVE these long construction videos! They are awesome to have on in the background while I work, they are very interesting as I know nothing about construction, they are very entertaining and very well made. Please post more content like this!!

I love watching you guys build in the freezing snow when it's 102 here in Central California. Cools me right off!

found yall a while ago but just found out in this vid that yall work so close to where i used to live. I used to go up and snowboard at Chattahoochee all the time and did most of my electrical job in that same area. Love what yall are doin putting so much care and effort into your trades cause it's hard to find someone that cares up there.

you guys make construction look like art, fun, brotherhood, even though reality it aint quite that easy of a trifecta, but I really appreciate you guys making these videos, brings back some of my life's fondest moments during my construction phase

I ABSOLUTELY loved watching you guys work. You and your crew were absolutely perfectionist at your skills. Awesome !

Great job! I totally would love to watch the compilation of the finish work!

I loved this video. I always wanted to build our own house, I mean, we got 3 of them built for us, but I would have loved being the contractor (maybe not, who knows). So enjoyed watching it, and you guys keep it fun and joke around a lot but you’re serious when you need to be. So enjoyable to watch professionals do their job. Thank you! Such a nice home and what a view they will have.

I saw these come up on my feed and instantly fell in love with the videos. I love how you've consolidated the total house build and also loved the "dry humor" (fireplace guy has the flew...)

Awesome video Erik! Unbelievable how fast you guys build a complete home from the ground up.

Alucinante el equipo Gus siempre poniendo el condimento positivo más un paisaje hermoso y soportando el temporal y la fatiga

Hi there. Watching you guys from Durban, South Africa 🇿🇦. Just finished watching the last of this complete build over the weekend. Beautiful, totally enjoyed.

Just came accross this. WOW. You all must have been freezing, but you pushed thru and did such an awesome job. The team work is some of the best I have ever seen. WELL DONE!! I live in the Smokies so this really touched my heart!

It's incredible to watch the collection of the vids of the whole build. Absolutely incredible to celebrate this long glorious build with a vid like this. What a project!!! I wan't one of all the funny moments toooo

1:07:50 The best part of the whole video!

Hey Jaime and Eric, greetings from cape cod. this is an awesome channel you’ve created. Yesterday I watched how Arlo had a pro tip to cut an uneven board on a table saw and today I used that technique on a hardwood flooring project I’m doing - it worked perfectly- thanks Arlo ! Jaime - the way you’ve handled your hand injury with such a can- do attitude - that is very inspirational.

I love this. Great insight into mtn construction

Love this longer video!! Would like to see more like this!

It’s really great to watch this complete build from beginning to end. I try to get as much as possible even if I watch 10 times I still like to see all your crew at work. Funny as well as all the handy work we see as you build. Please keep up all the great work it’s a pleasure to watch. Thanks for building and we will see you on the next video.

Glad this popped up in my feed. Just watched it all. Nicely done fellas. Will go back and watch the rest of this series. Beautiful views of the mountains. Awesome project and looks fun would love to work with this crew. Thanks👊🏻

Watched the whole series and still really enjoyed watching this video. Looking forward to watching the new rental house come together as well!

"Not just a hat rack" Classic!

I have watched the whole series of this build and still really enjoyed this version…much appreciated…it filled a void in between your latest small house build…coffee taste even better watching your videos! 😉🤣🙋🏻‍♀️🇬🇧💕jane

I know a lot of people think they’re not worth the extra consumables but i highly recommend you all invest in the paslode line of nailers. They have most all types like framing, pin and roofing. They have others also just cant think of them at the moment. At first i was skeptical about having to by the extra consumables (fuel cells) but quickly realized it wasn’t an issue at all. They work alot better then battery operated nailers and have zero issues in the cold or the heat. You get 1200+ nails out of one fuel cell and 9,000+ nails out of a fully charged battery. The batter is basically just for creating the spark to fire the fuel. They’re incredibly light and obviously you dont have to worry about any hoses or cords sticking out of it. Sorry for the long comment but you all should definitely try them.

Vacationing in BC with my family and ran into Erik at a pub this evening (I'm the landlord guy who joked that I'm happier to meet him than the President)... he kindly shared his time chatting about houses over a beer. That's what I love about KZread, so many of the personalities are just regular folks making videos. Not the scripted garbage that is most TV now. These guys deserve all of the success that they've worked hard for. My 5 year old son loved the pic 😁

Very cool video. You group of guys seem so chill and would be fun to work with. What video editor program are you using on your computer?

Same again please 🙏

This is a awesome team in fine detail, thank you all very much for sharing in the production of this video. Well done everyone.!

Hi, I have been binge watching for the last couple of days! Having been a Labourer on a building site back in 1964 as a young fella your work is fascinating to watch! Along with the scenery you work in its beautiful! All the crew you have are a pleasure to watch the camaraderie and good will shines through your brother with the missing digits how and when did he loose them? I’m viewing from the UK the North West GMC! As brothers working with your dad from a very young age your dad must be one proud fella that you have all carried on with the business? I wish you all safe doing what you do to proved for yourselves and family I also wish you prosperity in the coming future stay safe and look after each other fellas!!!

I’m a retired contractor builder. Retired early disabled. It’s such a pleasure watching you all work as a team. If I was in better shape I’d love working with you all.

When I retired, I agreed to supervise the build of Habitat homes. I sought the help of the local technical school trades instructor. I had renovated homes, but never built a home. I learned a lot over those six builds and with the help of many more talented volunteers and inspectors we built very good energy efficient and strong homes. We used 6 inch studs for better insulation. Watching your builds is gratifying as it reinforces the process and techniques we employed in our builds. Thanks for sharing as I am too old to do this any more.

You guys are addicting. I stumbled across one of your videos recently and can't stop watching. Great skill and love the personalities ❤

Can't wait for the next part to be up! It was nice being able to watch the whole thing in one place!

You guys make it look easy! Always a pleasure to watch you guys work.

Enjoying ur video Thank u for showing tricks. I build portable buildings and putting the nail in bottom of wall is going to help me out tremendously. Thank u again

This video has everything: drama, suspense, comedy, and love scenes. You can't say enough about the dedication of the Perkins Brothers & crew to get this job done in that weather and environment.

It’s one thing to be able to build a well constructed quality home, it’s a whole different skill set to chronicle that build and produce such an engaging, educational and entertaining long form video… Awesome!

More, please. Great way to spend a couple hours on a lazy Friday evening. Thanks!

We just returned from a vacation in the Smokey Mountains and we watched a crew building a house on a steep slope next to the cabin we were staying in on Ski Mountain road. My wife asked me if I was going to watch them all day. I couldn’t believe how they could build at such heights with sheer drop offs on three sides of the building. I didn’t see any safety ropes either. Kudos to your crew for their expert building skills and professionalism.

First time ever seeing any of your videos... Today was my intro...I was a US NAVY SEABEE...BUILDER TRADE, CARPENTER. Currently 63 yes old retired, I wanted to say that I watched the video before this one where the fella says NOC, at the intersection when the days were over..LOVE THAT HOME, beautiful work...absolutely beautiful...YOUR TEAM IS AWESOME, love seeing a contractor that still does 99% of the job and subs little out...OLD SCHOOL but all new skills... I JUST can't say how much I enjoy building in my head as I watch your guys do very very high end work...I live in NJ, no contractors do a complete job...It's all subbed and they are in and out, the painter, spacklers ,I will reserve thoughts.... I AM NOW going to watch your show and your construction frequently...Very nice how guys work together...HOPE THE MANS hand heals up nicely. That was a serious accident, stay strong, and as positive as you can!! You know your craft, you have a nice crew and your narrative is great 👍...glad I found your site...

I used to do this kind of work and also did plumbing and heating and loved doing it. Miss doing it for sure

I Just discovered your Chanel 😮 and it is right down my alleyway, Why You ask? Been a Chipy (carpenter) in Australia for over 40 years,now retired in Croatia for the past 12 years and this,your job takes me back to my days,when there ware no trusses as such,so everything had to be hand cut and assembled and man handled in position. The only luxury I had was portable Geny,compressor and nail gun and that was in the seventies. Different times now,I suppose they keep up with times. Terminology is somewhat the same and does ring a bell 🛎️ but I had sometime the most three man gang and when the weather was bad I used to do the fix out internally,doors,architraves,😮 scertings and so on. Like the camaraderie you guys have, and it does reflect in your performance. Good luck and safe work.🙏🇭🇷❤️👍

LOVE LOVE THIS VIDEO! You guys are AWESOME 👍😎 LOVE the heart and soul you put into all your work! And the cherry on top is you all have fun!! Thank you for sharing ❤

awesome show thank you all for sharing

It's lovely to see how you put pride in every project and the quality really shows! Have you guys considered battery driven nailers and framers, to avoid air compressors and all the hoses getting in the way?

This was a treat and therapeutic to watch. I must watch the full version now! Always enjoy watching a build from scratch to finish. I'm in software and IT, but I dabble with woodworking. Got a little workshop in my garage. Not a cool or as grand as some of those KZreadrs, but it's enough to get my projects done. I've always enjoyed working with my hands. From working on cars, fixing things, building furniture, or electronics. Insta-subscribe!

I have just discovered your channel and have watched two complete builds..You are a delight to watch, keep the videos coming....

Quality job. Timber framer here in the uk 🇬🇧. Excellent work and really appreciate you sharing your guys skills & humour 👌🏼
