Cost of 2 story SIP vs 2x6 ?? (1500 sq ft on slab) 2nd story roof is 12/12 pitch and ends at top of 1st floor header so really only need "triangles" on north ahd south ends. Rest is all roofing from peak crest to top of first floor. This is our forever=retirement home at 10,000fr in the Rockies and getting a crew on site fir a month to stick build is costly ahd timely vs pre-fabbed shipped to site. I'm disabled ahd just had 4th spine surprgey. In college I built vlBouse cabins in ARK as a summer job and am a Mechanical engineer. We've nixed walkout basement and leaning towards 2x4/2x6 exterior simply because of cost. Framing is $45K for shell with doors ajd indies. I also hear about our interior TNG ceiling may spring a leak with SIzp roofs and impossible to trave the source so pushes me to tradional 2x10 roof with OSB isolated std and tar paper covered by metal roof. Can you devlbynk that for roofing? Also resources with cranes abd land atop a mountainbis tricky as I try to assemble a crew for as gou say SIPS ajd focblicks if we opted for walkout few guys swinging a hammer know how to do this and there's a 3 year waitlist with the "big boys" like RiverbenfTF who merged with Precisiincreaft master of $×M lig homes whivh look great but add land and utilities you're up to $=M which again pushes me back to 2x4 stick build as it's 1%+0/th that price. However if you can be comoettive on pricing and make it so se can assure in a week like you day. I'm interested. Look forward to hearing from you or b otge d s familiar with these guys? Thanks BB
You bring up great points but I’m sure the guys at eco panels can answer all your questions as they are awesome to work with. Give Rob Rob Clutter a call, (615) 904-5210. Tell him RidgeLife sent you!
Thanks for the video Tim very interesting I don't understand some of it but it's still knowledgeable that I'm trying to drink in does that sound right drink it I don't know I'm rambling. I'm glad you're doing well and you're healthy again good. Well I'll be talking to you again sometime soon. Good luck in buying whatever you need for your barn I forget how you call it oh barmidium is that it computer spelled it right oh well you know what I mean. But for now take care.💰🤩🤩☘☘☘
The HUUUUUGE problem with SIP construction in the south: WDO...termites, carpenter ants, etc. A foam panel is just an insulated tunnel for termites. I love the concept, but I don't want my house eaten away from the foam core. Is the foam WDO resistant?
In New England Rhode Island would I use ERV or HRV and we want to use hydronic radiant floor heating (slab construction). How do you size hydronic radiant floor heating system? Does your company help with sizing heating and cooling. thanks Dan in RI
Major cities have conventions - home & garden shows, car shows and others. I went 30 years ago in Houston that had a small SIPS home on display. Cut away views and lots of info. Also looked at ICF= Insulated concrete forms building system.
Very interesting for sure. If I understood correctly, there are upgrades.........did you go that route. With house insurance being so high, wonder if this building option would have any affect on cost of insurance. Talking about cost............is it expensive for the average person.
With a presentation about their product like this was Tim, they need to hire you to promote it. OR give you a discount for the use of your video, lol. WINK WINK. Very informative and interesting. Stay save bro
I’ve been aware of SIPS for a long time, but to my knowledge they are still not super common. I’m in northern Michigan where you would expect to see more of these. I did know that the roof is also made with SIPS. Good video Tim!
Please go over to www.youtube.com/@EcoPanelsofTennessee and www.youtube.com/@honestabeloghomes and let them know how excited you are to see RidgeLife working wih them on his Barndominium!!!
Looking through your videos (very good by the way) I did not see how the electrical wiring is run both horizontially from one box to another but also vertically. Do you have to have your electrician there to run wiring as you are putting the panels together? Please send me the link for complete electrical installation. Also any videos if you messed up on an electrical outlet after house is up (not sheetrocked yet) and need to add electrical outlets. thanks again Dan in RI
Very interesting only thing I would change is the OSB I don't like that cause it's chip board. I would want the real thick plywood just saying the Ip board is the way to go but the product sounds great.
@@RidgeLife I agree at approximately 10% more that is easily recovered. I’m looking forward to watching the installation. I will be looking at the links you provided also. Thank you
Very interesting Tim! I watch a tiny home channel and they build their homes with the insulated panels. Evidently they are very good for extreme weather changes. Awesome video, very educational for home builders!😊❤
My friend in Tennessee built a sip’s panel house probably 25 yrs ago it is sealed so well she needs to have a window slightly open at times to let in fresh air . It is also much quieter than a stick built home . She loves it . I think you will be very pleased with your new home . 😀💕
That was very interesting. Truth be told I've never heard of this product until you started talking about using it on your build. I'm anxious to watch the entire process of your Barndiminium come to life. Thanks for the video Tim! Have a great time on your trip,safe travels and enjoy your family time. Take care and blessing's for you and Jen on your journey! Go RidgeLife! God Bless!!!❤😊

They treat it yes!
this was an amazing vid. love the product.
Thanks so much!

It’s about 10% more up front but less labor cost.

That would be cool!
Dealt with this company in Mocksville NC. What a nightmare. Never again.
What didn’t you like?

You must design your electrical with them ahead of time. They lines are pre run up or down depending if you have attic or crawlspace.
Hi Tim 👋 very good video for anyone thinking about building - sounds like a great company 👌
They are!
The things Tim will do for content! That will will be available after the dozer video 😂😂😂
Haha!
Very interesting only thing I would change is the OSB I don't like that cause it's chip board. I would want the real thick plywood just saying the Ip board is the way to go but the product sounds great.
The Zip boards only come in OSB type panels and work greet on SIPs! Price may be a factor but so far they are having great results! Thanks!
@@RidgeLife Gotcha Great video Tim ..
@@brandonnorris927 thanks!
Wow very interesting and informationly.
Glad you think so!
One more video and you at 1000, great job Tim
Thanks for letting me know!
Boy if I was gonna build a new home, I would use this system. I'm really impressed.
Thanks!
Impressed!
Thanks MamaV!
Was curious if you know the cost per wall panel opposed to a timber frame wall panel?
I hear it’s about 10% more but you have to account for not having labor to insulate or install electical boxes after that so can be close!
@@RidgeLife I agree at approximately 10% more that is easily recovered. I’m looking forward to watching the installation. I will be looking at the links you provided also. Thank you
