Pole building Backfill and Installing the Underground Plumbing.

- The concrete contractor have arrived and backed the pole barn. The build site is level and almost ready to pour the concrete floor. But first I need to get our drain lines and water line ran underground. It is time to grab a shovel and to start trenching in our plumbing.

I guess Im asking randomly but does any of you know a method to get back into an instagram account??
I stupidly lost my password. I would love any tips you can give me!
@Felipe Santiago Instablaster :)
@Jett Westley i really appreciate your reply. I found the site on google and im in the hacking process atm.
Takes a while so I will reply here later with my results.
@Jett Westley it did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. I'm so happy!
Thanks so much, you saved my ass!
@Felipe Santiago you are welcome xD
That was a lot of work for two people. Rebecca held her end up well. You might think of rewarding her with something nice. She is a fit helper indeed.
Spring rains are coming. Erosion. Hurry with the side slopes & sod.
Don’t forget to cover the ends of your conduit pipe, so no critters fall in and especially to keep the concrete out when it is getting poured. Excellent video
Looking good. As you run the water line to the building I would add and outside frost free hydrant. we ended up planting a garden nearby ours and use it for watering the garden or I pull equipment or trailers there to wash down. very handy extra to have. keeps the dirt and water out of the garage.
The new barn is looking good. Might I suggest running a pull rope through the waterline conduit. I think that sharp 90 degree elbow could be hard to push a line through. What about floor drains, one in the meat processing area and one in the shop to drain water if equipment is wet or washed in there.
Calling that building a barn is definitely an understatement. Great work guys , be very proud .
You are going to need a retaining wall or a hell of a lot more fill. Our neighbor's machine shed was built with just one corner about a foot low and there is still problems with settling a dozen years later. When you are running the actual water line, add yard hydrants along the way. I put three of them in last year and they are invaluable for watering livestock and numerous other things.
Great vids!!! Everything is so blue and glossy. Glossy blue!!!
My camera was getting repaired, so I used my cell phone. The video setting I used was out of wack.
Very good work, the building is very nice. No comments other than “a good farmer lives poor and dies rich”. I know it takes a lot of time, money and work, but the sweat equities worth it.
Super pole barn . For filling I always lookout for road/ construction jobs in the area that might be hauling unwanted filling away and asked if they needed a hole for it . Nine times out of ten I done them a favour 🤗 . Short haul !!! and pretty much cheap filling for me 😎
What a job! So much digging and tamping. Well done. Thank you for sharing. Good luck w/ remaining work.
😷👍
Good video
I just got my drain lines for my shop bathroom connected yesterday. All I have left is installing the fixtures inside
Now that is a lot of work! Great job and great teamwork!
You want that water closet riser to be plumb coming out of the floor. Also you need at least a 3" vent on a plumbing system that exits thru the roof.
Evan, when the Good Book talks about a good wife is worth more than a precious gem, you are a very rich and blessed man. Rebecca is one very special jewel.

You guys knocked it out in one day! One day closer to being finished with you barn project.🐓
TH-cam did not show you to watch in our subscriptions. Reset still not there. It was recommended but not with our subscriptions list to watch. Something strange. Love your pole barn. Maine
Yes the video didn't publish correctly, it is not showing on subscription feeds.
In the red clay dirt of Georgia, it is advisable to put loose hay or straw against the exterior walls to keep the rain from splattering red mud on the walls and staining them. It also reduces the clean up. You might not need to do this where you are. Looking good so far.
Looking great Evan!
You two are awesome. Great progress today!!💖🐱👤
What an awesome partner Evan, good looking, intelligent, woman who is not scared of a shovel. I just luvit.
Also...love your channel.
Looking great!
Good job
Suggestion: Put duck tape over the top of each pipe opening so the contractor and other will not drop anything in the pipes.
I did the next day.
I'm with Mike Honcho. You really might want a floor drain in the meat processing room as well as the walk in refrigeration unit so you can just hose everything down after you work or when you need to do a routine cleaning. It gets really messy when you do the entire processing work as I'm sure you know. That's really neat what you all are doing there!
Consider it like a mini-restaurant. And it may need to be inspected by the state. Find out what their requirements are.
It is only to my personal use, not to sell items.
That was my thought. Food handler permits and inspections only necessary if you sell outside your home.
Maybe you mentioned, I was wondering about water into the kitchen sink. Sorry if I missed what you said. You and Rebecca are working a great and steady build on your farm/homestead. Appreciate your sharing your experience. Blessings to you both. Praying for your safety, strength, health and success.☝️🙏🙌👉...
The hot and cold water lines to the kitchen sink will be ran above ground.
Awesome, that is a lot of work in a day!
I have seen water lines freeze at 3 foot deep in central IL.
Tape up both ends of your conduit....😎
Rebecca is a marvelous worker
Love your pole barn u n Rebekah are doing a great job.
They did a great job, I'd be very happy!
Wow that backfill was major, I was waiting to see it.
I know you had to pay for the backfill but look at the amount of time and effort it would have been for you good team work you and rebbeca
A conduit for a data line separate from the power as you don't want data to run near power as it induces a current in the low voltage wire making a lot of noise or even enough to damage equipment. At the least you will want an access point in the barn/workshop so you can look things up and be able to watch/listen videos when working and if you setup for live streams from the workshop you want a good wired connection to the computer you are using.
If you are setting up an area for the dogs you will need water all the time so only having access to it from the bathroom isn't a good plan when you can setup a yard hydrant to have water access without needing to fear freezing.
Poor Rebecca had that short handled shove! My back hurt watching her!
your line to the septic is not likely to freeze. Your septic tank will vent through that line to your vent stack. Your septic tank is generating heat all the time so it will be pushing warm (smelly) air out your vent stack..
Where is the vent stack pipe connected?
There will be 2 vent lines, one coming up from each sink connection.
@@thomasfett6674 The toilet gets it's vent from the vanity vent.I guess it's considered a wet vent in that at times the vent is also carrying waste.
Makes sure you cover your rough in pipes with caps or duct tape before concrete comes.
Lay a tape on the floor and mark your under floor pipes for future reference. Take pictures of them. Trust me, you may need to know where they are someday. Job looks great.
Looks like you've done this before .. plumbing and stuff .. absolutely professional job :))
Thx
Looking good
Looks great. Y’all are lucky that you are able to do the plumbing yourself. Looking forward to the next video!
That's amazing. Everything done backwards from building a house
You should put a drain in the processing room so you can wash the floor down with a hose. Also, a hose facet there and the kennel.
i also suggested a drain in the kennel area and underground elect coming in from a post at the fence line or so
You might consider a floor drain in your meat processing area. There is a lot of blood and Waist that hits the floor.
I would have used a 4” drain pipe to go to the septic tank!
Looking good. The Amish do good work.
Good morning County View Acres. Am watching from Jamaica 🇯🇲, where our housing solutions are different from yours. Can you explain what's the difference between Pole Barnes and a home stead build. Hopefully am coming across , looking forward to the response.
Evan putting a shower in would be useful food for thought
Not surprised Rebecca was tired all that rain dancing
I hope you are going to put caps on all the interior pipes, as concrete tends to block drains LOL
I put duck tape over them.
Looking good.
For the future fill can you dredge your pond larger?
Pit run just hasn’t gone through a crusher so it depends on the actual pit you is ther
amazing work.....Hi Evan👋🏻
but just think how long it would have taken you to do by yourself and the fill out around can be done over time just as long as you get the up-close work done so it doesn't erode watched to the end this time
Hey, a tolet flang not level will do 2 things. When the wax ring is smashed down one side will be too thin and my leak gas and not make a good seal. Second when you tighten the bolts from the flang to the tolet they may break the tolet. Also, back filling with rock on a 3" or 4 " waist line is wrong. You should use pee gravel beded on the bottom 5" and 6" on top. There a list of reason PVC moves, can crack, will break under SLABS, always bed it with pee gravle small round stones with smooth sides not jagged rocks. Where was the vent line also
Yep dirt is expensive
It was so exciting seeing a pole barn video!!! Everything is looking AMAZING!
Side note: this video didn't come up in my notifications. I would've watched it hours ago 😩
It didn't come up on mine either.
It didn’t mine either, so I canceled out and then got back in. See what happens next time.
Somehow, the setting changed and it didn't notify anyone.
I did not see a vent pipe. Is one needed? Good videos.
Yes. There will be 2 vents.
Think about an extra electrical conduit run along besides the main. If some day you decide to go Solar power the conduit you will need
I put in an extra conduit. You will see in the next video.
No inspection before backfill?
Any reason why you didn't do the plumbing before walls went up? It would've been so much easier to be able to reach thru with a mini -excavator prior to walls and gradeboard
Why would you not do the concrete before the walls?
I didn't see a water line to the sink in the wall, maybe I missed it, and not the bathroom sink.
Dig a pond and you'll have plenty of fill
You ran a drain for the kitchen sink, what about the water lines?
The rest of the Water lines will be above ground.
Do you need a separate vent to the roof for the toilet?
There will be two vents installed when we do the rest of the plumbing.
What. About your water line s for your kitchen sink
No floor drains?
Think of the time not to long ago when all of that pipe would be metal screwed togather.
Brother i didn't see the water inlet to the sink in the processing room seen the drain.
The hot and cold water to the kitchen sink will be run above ground.
@@CountryViewAcres Thanks for the update that i missed
Have fun with the new addition
Don’t know what your codes are but sewage always goes below water and everything?
Are you going to vent the sewer line?
Yes
Do you need to run vents for the drains up thru the roof?
Yes
Do you have to get permits or inspections for any of the plumbing?
No
1st Comment, hello from Arkansas.
I can see your video, but it will not show up on my subscriptions. I have unsubscribed and subscribed again and hit the bell but it just refuses to show up. I had to go back and make sure I have not missed any and there was one other one that did not show up. Is anyone else having this issue?
A setting got changed and it didn't publish on subscription feeds. I can't change it, now that it is published.
Why is there some sort of filter in the video not a fan. Love the vids though.
No, my normal camera is getting repaired.
backhoe!!!!!!!!!!!!! PUT A FLOOR DRAIN IN THE MEAT ROOM!!!!!!!
WRONG PIPE.. You used electrical conduit for water line.. if you were having this inspected they would make you pull it all out and start over. Grey conduit is for electrical and you should not use it for any water applications but DO NOT run potable water through grey conduit it can be toxic!
The conduit us just a path for my water line to route through. The conduit is not my water line.
Why did you use a gray ELECTRICAL conduit to feed a WATER LINE THRU IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN WHITE PVC NOT GRAY THAT IS TOTALLY ILLEGAL
No, it isn't.
Good job
Didn't you forget to run the water line to the "kitchen sink"??
Probably going to run it through the wall
Yes, the hot and cold water will run through the wall
Probably to late to be considered, floor drains, extra hose spicket for clean up. After processing meat hose and pressure washing make cleanup much easier.
If government clearing out ditches for road work in the area, you could offer them a dump site for their excavated dirt from the ditches. Saves them where to find dump site and their time hauling back and forth
? What about floor drains for the kitchen and the shop?
This is a fairly easy job and it saves money. Please consider adding a clean out in the bathroom for easier access to the system. Additional buildings on properties are often hard to clear clogs because they are furthest from the tank (long pipes). With that said, adding a clean out on the outside can also help in the future. Most clogs happen in outbuildings because the pipes are not in use and don't have enough water to carry waste to the septic tank. Clean outs are cheap compared to the time and money to pull a toilet just to clean the pipe.
Good job. I wish I had "stone free" ground like that!
But, how are you getting water to your kitchen sink? Under slab? Or overhead?
Glad you posted in the community section because the video was not in my normal feed area.
Clean out and stink pipe to vent line. With cleaning meat you need a clean out for clogs
Hi..... Evan and Rebecca nice to see you both are doing a good job and a hard work, thank you for sharing your video homestead 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 🎥👍👍👍
The pole barn is looking good and you and Rebecca have done a great job of getting your part done before the concrete is poured. Have a great day.
I am surprised they are only burying the sewage line and water supply line about 2 1/2 feet below the ground surface. Here in Eastern Ontario, Canada the sewage and water supply lines are buried about 10 feet below the ground surface or else they will freeze in the winter. I assume in countries like Russia they also bury their sewer and water lines deep.
Way different parts of the world !
Here in Virginia, the frost line is 18 inches...
Wow that is a lot of hard labor right there, you guys are such a great team!
What are the dimensions of the building? Well done!!! TY
The dimensions are on his first barn video.
👍
Just sitting here drinking coffee watching you work lol
Hi 2 1/2 foot deep for the frost line that is wrong in MA we have to go down 4 feet that will all freeze
18" here in Virginia...
