Beautiful! My wife and I decided to build one of these a few weeks back and are still in the planning/purchasing stage. We are going to use fiberglass round pillars rated for 14,000 lb load for the supporting legs. Your video really got me pumped to tackle the project next month!. Thanks!
Thanks!!!The floor are easy to be replaces. Since all posts were installed to the concrete base ground directly. the video doesn't show very details the construction so may confuse some people. I am not a pro, jut love to diy.
An amazing job, but not a single explanation. Most of the audiences are first time or do it yourself project. Please slow down and take a little bit longer to explain how each piece comes about. Thank you for your wonderful job. Wishing you the very best. NYC
Good work but dangerous in flip flops. Flip flops and construction/ladders not a good combination. I would never ever do that. Been in the trades for over 23 years and I just wont do it, not even for a 30 sec. fix. in my own house.
My husband said there has a waist height stone wall to support my lawn. It is very close to my door, so if he builds a wooden structure next to it, we can't do maintenance further if need. Therefore, he builds a brick wall to connect with the house basement structure in this area. He doesn't need to worry about the maintenance further.
looks good, my only comment is did you add any flashing between the cedar shingles on the house and the roof of the portico? If not, water will eventually work its way between the two structures and rot them both.
Why not? I'm no pro and I built an entire bulkhead for my home years ago. I had someone dig the hole, I knocked out a doorway through the foundation wall, poured the footing, built the concrete block enclosure, waterproofed it, bolted down steel Bilco frame, attached the steel doors, installed stair stringers for the stairway and back filled around the bulkhead by hand. I was around 35 years-old at the time, and it took me about a week, doing entire project all by my lonesome. It's still in great shape by the way, over 40 years later. No leaks, wood rot, etc.
My husband told me that he use rubber sheet to do as flashing. It is not a normal way to do this and didn't show on this video. He is not pro, you may better ask advise from pro😁
That construction by now is rotten, there were many mistakes in the process. Wood in contact with impervious surfaces shall be PT and the rest is history. Missing flashing and hurricanes hold-downs, and the PVC drainage mad me go WTF? The fact that he was happy about the light being on cause me concern.
Very nice work. I wonder how many days it took you from start planning design/materials to conclusion. Doing it alone if certainly even harder. Congratulations!
Nice job but not enough detail footage of how it was built. It could have been done in 4 parts instead of time lapse which teaches nothing. Great portico though.
I've been in the carpentry business for 35 years ,that man is a master
Where does he lives?
I agree but the flooring area is on a slope. That lowered the standard a bit. I would have like him to level it. Look at the bottom of the door!
@@Foreverandever431 The doors square
The fact that he even did it in sandals. 👏
Not the Problem. But no wooden trestles. Everything on the ground like in asia.
Lmao! I think its an Asian Thing!
Steel toed sandals
That was seriously impressive. Great work. Great video. Thank you.
The force is with you Sir! Perfect build!

How did it work out? Did you know most of how to do it? I'm asking because I'm looking into tackling these projects myself
Amazing.
Really adds feature to your home.
Wow DIY.. you seem to know what you are doing like a pro, great work bro :)
Awesome! ❤️❤️❤️
Bill did a great job 🏡
That is brilliant m8...well done !!!
With basic tools and wearing sandals...good job!
Looks fine with precisions, however it’s gonna be a hassle to have to replace that subfloor very soon, since it’s not PT. (Pressure Treated)
Thanks!!!The floor are easy to be replaces. Since all posts were installed to the concrete base ground directly. the video doesn't show very details the construction so may confuse some people. I am not a pro, jut love to diy.
I loved the video. I just wished that you would put the build plans with the measurements. Would it be possible?
Sorry, I don't keep the details dwg.
how a wonderful hubby and do for you.😇😍

Thank you for your wonderful job.

Nice build and good editing.
Impressive! Thanks for this video.
Good work! Question: what is your water proof solution for where the portico roof meets the siding?
Very nice work, but I didn’t see flashing between the sidewall of the house and the new porch roof.
Yes, you are correct. My husband said he did something to instead.
impressive. You just schooled big contractors
My guy, you did a great job
In flip flops, on a ladder, doing A+ work... good content
Good work but dangerous in flip flops. Flip flops and construction/ladders not a good combination. I would never ever do that. Been in the trades for over 23 years and I just wont do it, not even for a 30 sec. fix. in my own house.
Great job 👏🏻
Can u do that to my house great JOB !
If only I had a dad in my life like this
Wonderful job!
dont think that floor patch is meant for structural work.. but it might hold up that portico...
floor doesn't hold the post, it is not structure work.Posts stand and to be fixed to the ground directly.
Amazing. Watching this made me realize there's just no way I can do this. XD
LMAO -- Right?! Along with realizing it may be best to hire a professional. A very sobering somber day in Manhood.
I know Im kind of off topic but do anyone know a good website to watch new tv shows online ?
@Remy Elliot Flixportal
@Finnley Kenneth thanks, I signed up and it seems like a nice service :D Appreciate it!!
@Remy Elliot Happy to help =)
Looks beautiful
Great work!
Did you make our buy the support roof gables?
Great job.
Very nice job👏
Why did you put those bricks at the beginning?
My husband said there has a waist height stone wall to support my lawn. It is very close to my door, so if he builds a wooden structure next to it, we can't do maintenance further if need. Therefore, he builds a brick wall to connect with the house basement structure in this area. He doesn't need to worry about the maintenance further.
@@annyiu8310 Oh OK, thank you😊
that was awesome
Beautiful!
Why would a guy with his skill and talent stand on the peak of a ladder? If he keeps it up he will fail and get injured.
Could you pls tell me how much did this cost you and the time taken to complete this project
Lovely.Thank you! 👍
I love it!
its crazy how easy you made this look
looks good, my only comment is did you add any flashing between the cedar shingles on the house and the roof of the portico? If not, water will eventually work its way between the two structures and rot them both.
Yes, you are correct. My husband said he did something to instead.I didn't captured this in this video.
Very well executed
That was so cute at the end
Thought porticos were flat?
He did it all by himself! 😳
Why not? I'm no pro and I built an entire bulkhead for my home years ago.

Good
Great!!
Nice job!!! I'm thinking about adding a portico to my home. How much did it cost you for materials?
I didn't count the actual expense but material cost should be under $1,000 ( included of the storm door & lights).
Awesome! is the city permit required? guess you are in Ontario
Thanks! Yes, we do need to inform the town office to get a simple working permit. It is just like changing windows. We are not living in Ontario.
Master at his trade.
Great work! How long did this take?
My husband took two weeks to do this.
Hi what did you use for flashing ? I have a similar house.
My husband told me that he use rubber sheet to do as flashing. It is not a normal way to do this and didn't show on this video. He is not pro, you may better ask advise from pro😁
How much did it cost?

If you are ever in NJ feel free to stop by. I am in need of the same type of canopy. He made that look so simple! great work
How long did it take?
Nice
How much was the cost to build?
We didn't count the actual expense but material cost should be under $1,000 ( included of the storm door & lights).
He's a genious!!
A genius too
Could have made this 10 times longer; would have watched it all.

Longest 2:00 video I have ever seen!
Very nice work. I wonder how many days it took you from start planning design/materials to conclusion. Doing it alone if certainly even harder. Congratulations!
I am not pro, just like DIY. I took 2 weeks to complete this project. But I spent a week to design & plan the structure.
@@chipiucheung1212 Thanks. Very nicely done!
Nice job but not enough detail footage of how it was built. It could have been done in 4 parts instead of time lapse which teaches nothing. Great portico though.
wow
I'll never understand the purpose of these time lapse videos that tell you nothing about the process.
Yes, my purpose is not to show the process. I want to capture and share a memory during the pandemic what we did. Thanks for your watching.
why would I care about this? no procedural explanation, no narration, just some random guy assembling a thing. waste of time.
You thought a 2 minute video was going to be a full procedural explanation with narration? At least you only wasted 2 minutes, I guess, genius!
