Time Lapse of Old House Demolition and New Construction
Фильм және анимация
Time lapse showing the demolition of our old house and the construction of our new house!
We bought this property in 2014 and lived in the existing house for 4 years. We then demolished the old house and self-built a new one in the same location. I acted as the General Contractor (for the work that we didn't do ourselves). My dad and I did the framing, windows, siding, electrical, plumbing, insulation, drywall, paint, flooring, tile, and my dad built the kitchen cabinets, along with lots of help from friends and family along the way.

Most municipalities where I live (Canada) are seriously compressing the size of new building lots. They hate big lots now and therefore buying a large lot becomes very expensive. I hate it because I want a large building lot myself.

@Gameygames101 The camera takes two AA batteries. We bought some high quality lithium ion AAs and they would last a couple of weeks before having to recharge them. Since it was a timelapse, it would only have to take a picture every hour, so there wasn't much drain on the batteries.

I'm from the UK and have only lived in houses made from brick, so to see an entire house made of wood is a little scary to me. I'd be worried it would all fall down on me. It's amazing to know that walls could easily be cut down if they ever wanted to open up the space. Such a beautiful home and such a great watch.

Very cool to watch. It was cool seeing the seasons change as well. Nice new house!!
Glad you included the demolishing
I've done many demos like this. They are fun to do because you don't have to worry about breaking anything. I used to find the hot water tank and lay it on the ground. It would still be full so I would pick way up in the air and squeeze it between the bucket and the thumb. The water would jet out both sides of the tank. Little pleasures. Lol.

@@myapologiesmissgurl5069 we build with bricks or concrete walls in general fully. The materials we use are much higher quality in terms of lasting etc but we also luckily don't have as many natural disasters here like tornadoes or earthquakes so it's cheaper to make good houses that last a really long time instead of these kinds of prefab houses or ones that use drywalling with insulation. I will try and find an article that might explain more or less how houses are built here but in the mean time I suggest searching on KZread for some South African homes in the cities they're really nice

myapologiesmissgurl to add on, our building materials such as brick is much cheaper here so out house are much more resilient against the elements. A tornado would damage the house but not destroy it. We also tend to build differently in different climate zones so across the country there are different styles to cope with the environment. This is unlike Americans who tend to have a more generic home style and just use ac and climate control. That unfortunately isnt so great for the environment

I think this is discussed on every single home construction build based out of the US. Building a home in the US is expensive as fuck just from using wood materials. The cost to build one out of concrete and brick would cause the price to skyrocket. The sad outcome of unchecked corporate greed and capitalism. It's done this way out of necessity for a lower cost.

Joanna Robbins I used a couple of different settings at different stages. For example, I used a quicker setting (30sec maybe) for the demolition so that I could capture more detail. For longer stretches of the construction, I used 10min. In hindsight, I wish I would have had 2 cameras. One for outside and one to move around inside to capture more on the interior of the house.

We used a Brinno timelapse camera. It was attached to a electrical pole in a weatherproof case on the corner of our property. Inside the house I just screwed it to the wall. The demolition was approximately $8,000 and the cost to build was approximately $165 CAD per square feet. Prices have significantly increased since then though (we built in 2018).
Seems like front porch roof frame is missing some type of horizontal tie or needs hardware to make the gable a rigid frame.
