In the Andes of Peru, where my wife is from, this part of constructing a house is called "el techado", the roofing, and is normally a huge event for a family or young couple. Family members, friends, and neighbors will come from all over the country to help put on the roof, bring house warming gifts, cook massive amounts of food for those doing the work, and in general have a large family reunion to celebrate such an important milestone in your lives. Building your own home is still considered an expected norm where she is from, and most all young people grow up learning these valuable skills through helping others build their homes in their small villages throughout their childhoods. When it comes time to build your own home as a young adult, those people remember you, and that you helped them build their house when you were young, and they come and lend you a hand. This practice is called 'Ayni' in Quechua, the native language in the Andes. From a young American and Peruvian, we extend our most humble and heart-felt congratulations to you. May you live long and prosperous in this beautiful home and cherish one another for the rest of your days, as God wills.
Wow, not many coupels are able to work together like this!! Without getting divorced within a couple of months.. 😜 You are truly blessed!! 👍🇸🇪
Glad you found a way that makes you happy and able to pursue your dreams. It definitely shows what's possible when 2 adults put their minds together. Team work makes the dream work. I can speak 1st hand when one person carries the load with a partner that lives on easy mode.
0:57 I believe that 'piece of metal' on your trusses is called a 'nail-plate' (it's usually embedded into the lumber with hydraulic pressure).
Been waiting for a new video! Y’all have come so far!!
Haha thanks girl! I have soooo much footage in the queue, just haven't had any time to edit everything!
Our trusses are held on with a Simpson Tie that looks like a ling Joist hangar. It's placed over the top cord of the truss and and the straps hand down 10". Their nailed to a a continuous 2x10 header It's a system that has survived Cat 5 Hurricanes.
Late to the party but the build is looking great! I am not a construction guy but watching you guys walking on the OSB roof with no safety harnesses gave me chills. Probably safer than it looks (what do I know?) but, damn.
Same .. don't mean to be monday morning quarterback .. but for those doing some roof work like this .. wear a roof harness .. falling off a roof will change your life .. and not in the fun way!
Je crois aussi à la sécurité d'abord. Gardez l'équilibre. Travail en hauteur oui mais toujours la sécurité avant tout
Wear a harness
Great video again Careena thanks, it's just awesome watching Brandon work a true professional. The house is going to look amazing thanks again take care and stay safe 👍.
Been involved in 3 builds to different degrees in the last 25 years. All different and challenged me to the edges. Awesome to see you both just getting it done. Good on you. It’ll be awesome !
You're making great progress. I'm impressed! I love watching you all.
Thank you Steve!
Nice to see you guys back again! Coming along! Your home is really starting to take shape. Can't wait to see the front entrance when it's finished. Have a great weekend. Excellent work guys!🤗👍🧡
Was absolutely thrilled when I got notified you had posted a new episode. I have missed you guys! I know that you have been uber busy, but your fans really appreciate any and all content that you wish to share. Am so happy that your build is going so well. It is going to be an amazing home and no one deserves that more than you!
The thing I most respect about you both is how hard you work.
You don't sit around wringing your hands chanting "woe is me" when life presents challenges. You dig in your heels, figure things out and expend a ton of good old fashioned elbow grease and simply get things done. I'm very proud of you!
Sorry to tell you but your channel comments are being scammed by informing them they ate on a short list for a big giveaway from "you".
I've seen this on other TH-cam channels. Just thought you should know. You may wish to warn your subscribers. Really enjoy timbermates.
I’m surprised your Lift can handle so much weight. Roof looks Awesome! Great to see your house taking shape! 😃👍👏
Thanks Carl!
You both work together so well, sharing the work load..it will be a strong, well built home for years to enjoy! Love the channel, be safe, stay healthy, & God Bless everyone.
I just discovered your channel today, 7 March 2023, and I have to say I really enjoy your content. Very enjoyable, uplifting, learning, and good entertainment, and most of all you two are so sweet to watch. Looking forward to much awesome content.
Y’all been gone too long from us. Good to see ya back and the progress is coming along nicely.
Good morning from Minnesota USA!! Looking great! It's always a huge milestone to get it dried in!! Keep up the hard work!
Well done 👏
That hoist is a gift. And the ingenuity of how it’s used 💪.
I hope you’re both so happy and proud of your work
A summarized version of every video in this series from start to finish would definitely go viral.
Awesome job y'all! Can't wait to see the next video!
Really enjoy your adventures in building
It’s looking great. Have been waiting to see the progress, and it sure is coming along. Look forward to see the next vid. Wishing you both well.
Great video, the build is looking good.
Thanks for sharing!
Wow... house is coming along great. Thanks for the video
wow no harness ye are tough out great work done so far cant wait for next video till then happy holidays
Great job guys. God bless you two. Semper Fi EH!
The build is coming on a ton. You guys are smashing it. Best of all is the site location, it’s going to look magical.
Thanks David!!
Wow you two are incredible talented!!! Looks so good!!
Build looks awesome! Congrats on the progress. Having only done regular framing builds, I love the explanations of thing like the plates I never saw before. Super informative and thanks for that.
Cheers and look forward to your next installment!
You both are truly amazing!!!! Great video. Glad the winds didn't harm your trusses. Stay safe up there!
Congratulations to you both, you work together with such love and enthusiasm for your goals to have a beautiful home. I cannot wait to see more of your fantastic work. Take care and be safe
Thank you so much John for the kind words and for following along with us!
House is looking pretty awesome! Good job!
Coming along great guys. Must be a relief to have the roof on for sure keeping the rain and snow out for the interior work to start. It's going to look fabulous. Well done Brandon on that entrance, can't wait to see the video. Cheers Blessings!👍.
Was getting concerned. Glad to see you back!
Great job. You two work well together.
Not sure if you reinforced the truss plate connections but I wouldn’t trust a standard truss plate to not pull apart in high winds. They are just secured by little spikes coming from the sides of the plate into the wood. I like the idea of a storm proof home. Every connection is a possible weak link. It’s a lot to consider and adds to the cost. I’m curious how much your build costs vs standard construction. Thanks. Good job documenting 😊👍
Been waiting for his video to drop thanks for this update will be looking forward for the next one!
House is looking great good job but one concern where were your safety lines when you guys were working on the roof safety first it's not worth getting injured or worse 🤔
They had a 4 ft thick foams at the bottom to cushion their fall.
Low pitch makes it walkable
Shit roofing in the summer I’ve been on much worse, perm from the amigos
What a great video you guys got lot done on the house and can’t wait for the next video the house is look great 👍👍👍❄️
really enjoyed you guys are a team good luck and happy holidays
One thing I've been considering is doing is picking roofing and siding that will allow me to minimize the fire risk.
Moving out by my wife's family and they have had a few wild fires in the area.
I'm staying away from flammable exterior products like asphalt, vinyl, wood, etc. and moving towards metal, brick, stone, concrete.
I'm going to probably do a sealed attic with an air exchanger rather than a ventilated attic too.
Should help.
I will be building my own house in the near future. ICF to me is the only way to go! You guys are a great inspiration!!
JUST INCREDIBLE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! storm proof , more like bomb proof !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! alexis , i think you could out work most guys !!!!!!!!!!!
Great Progress ❤
You Two do it all great Team work Congratulations 👊🏾👊🏾😊
Simply awesome. Wow, these rafters are not moving. Great idea to have the bracket in concrete like that. Must have meant a lot of precise measurements as once in concrete. they are not moving. Great job
Good Job Guys 🙌🙌🙌👏👏👏 Happy Holidays Early 🎄🎄❄️❄️☃️☃️
awesome job kid's.
its looking great!!! you will have it dried in before winter hits!!! be safe up there on that roof!!!
nice 2 see some new footage...
Love this build and how well you two work together .
One question is why you do not use any fall protection in the lift or installation of the roof components. At least in the US, this would be a point of importance.
Great video. Looking good. Take care and have a blessed weekend and I'll see you on your next video.
Looks very good, it's gonna be nice. Keep smilin
Wowww con que magnífica habilidad arman esa casa, espectacular 😃😃😃👍👍👍👍
Im amaze with the control you guys do that job on the roof, it's high and is angled, damm what a good skills
Really coming along! Its not easy but it will be worth it! (That's what we keep telling ourselves too!). We just finished shingling as well.
Never would have considered chicken waffles! Great idea. Everything is good with maple syrup. Canadian eh!
Looking good 👍
yall such a dope couple
ITS ROCKIN!!!!
Metal brackets are pretty standard around here to hold truss' down, but I'm not sure those screws you used in them would pass code here. Code calls for joist hanger nails to be used, as they are hardened, designed for the job and very strong, stronger than nails and screws for shear strength. SR
I built my house with same product, Nudura supplies screws that are approved for that application and will meet building code. Built in Minnesota
Looking good
Great work. Thanks for sharing. Glad you used heavy equipment to raise the trusses. Unfortunately I’ve been a part of a team using ropes and pulleys-did not end well at all.
Yeah I used to work in the days of ropes and pulleys too, not fun times for sure. Thanks for watching and following along!
I love watching the progress of your house takes me back to my days in home construction. Was that 3/4" tongue and groove sub-floor sheets you put on the roof for sheeting? Never seen it used on a roof before. Is that common in Canada or just a new practice I'm not aware of. Heavy duty and strong but expensive. It looks great B & C. 😊
i really dont like using OSB sheeting on a roof, i prefer plywood but the cost is crazy right now so i went with 5/8 T&G as a compromise. Its very strong and wasn't as expensive as a 1/2 inch plywood
Wowzers T&G roof sheathing! Is that by choice? “H” clips with 7/16” OSB are pretty much the norm here.
Sure is handy to have that machinery. I had to do my trusses one at a time from laying down in a pile on top of the walls. Pre assembly like that is the key!
Fantastic
Awesome!
Absolutely love your videos! You guys operate like a well oiled machine and I am so glad to see how complementary you are towards each other. I am sure this building is going to be AWESOME.
Thank you Bob!!
Your gas can doesn't leak!!! I'm jealous. 😄
House is coming along!! Very exciting that the roof is on!! Looking forward to more!
Thanks so much for following along!
in the part of Australia where i am we add what is called a cyclone strap its a galvanized steel band approx 1 inch wide and approx 1/8 thick that goes from the wall straight up plumb beside your rafter tail or truss tail over the top and back down the other side and it twists where it meets the rafter/truss so it stays flat against it and each one has 15 fasteners per tail. I wish we could just use a saddle like bracket
Excellent 😊👍
looking good
It's looking great with the roof is on 👍
Thanks!!
Jesse Muller made his roof out of concrete, too! his house is still in progress, but he's in NY so there's that.
New vid right as i get home from work? noice
Great job. Brandon is a good builder . But want to remind Car Car , glasses with the circular saw
You people are something.
@TimberMates, Hello we are also going to build our own home, its going to be OFF-grid and we are in the upper North East of the USA and my Wife and I will be building it!!! We to are going to use I.C.F's for our full basement and I have a call into NUDURA today, may I ask where you purchased those open metal and wood web floor joists??? Between I Joist are just about half the cost of typical wood open web floor joist and heavy as heck, I notice you have open metal and wood web floor joists and wonder about the product spec's and price and looking for a local source my way, I noticed that they use them in the UK......Your home looks so nice, Thank you!!!
House is pretty much dried in. Another nice video.
awesome
Nice work but where are y'alls vent lines maybe the other side of the roof? I was nervous for her not being tied off
You should have made few panoramic windows and terraces around the house with wider roofs. Tech is really good but project could be much more interesting
🤔Alexis & Brandon house🌀🌀 well build by the pro couple First time seeing a house like this .I Like it. Normaly wood from bottom to top. When I tock carpenter in school. I give it👍👍👍🍻🍻🍻
tock
Hi guys love the videos,are you doing radiant tube heat in the basement floor? Loved to see that ..thanks
Yes we are
Just an FYI…Per Dade County Florida and Fortified research..lumber in your roof structure fails at 158 mph wind loads. So possible for your roof to take an EF3, but not an EF4-5
COOL, THANKS FOR THE INFO
One floor? Oh oke nice work ❤️❤️
I'm curious to what solution was used at the end where Brandon was abonizing the wood (if that is what it was). I use iron acetate but it never works🥲
Je travaille dans la construction depuis près de vingt ans et j'utilise toujours l'épis et Dieu merci, jusqu'à présent je n'ai jamais eu de problèmes
Need to put some Sea-Foam in your generator. It shouldn’t surge like that, carb jets are starting to plug and running lean.
its because we dont have it on eco mode, it keeps the RPMs up but on a low load it surges a bit, we do that so that when the compressor turns on it doesn't struggle.
Why not lite deck for the roof??
Those brackets are okay but they should be long enough to attach to the top cord. Nothing holding the top cord except a nail plate
Curious as to how you made the choice between an asphalt tile roof or a metal roof.
Price and material availability
Not tornado proof but maybe tornado resistant.
Using a man-lift first for beams in a previous video now for roof truss, pretty cowboy move 😂
Amazing how much weight the man lift can handle.
Bonjour à tous, votre travail est très beau, félicitations, mais la sécurité n'existe pas là-bas. Veuillez travailler en toute sécurité, en utilisant une ceinture de sécurité, une ligne de vie et tout ira bien. Un câlin,
Your home is coming along so nicely!!! Have to admit it gave me the creeps watching you guys on the roof I am not a fan of heights...looking forward to the next one!
Hahah thanks for watching as always Kristin! It always take s a few minutes to adjust to walking on the roof, but once we find out footing its all good :)
12:33 You REALLY need some safety gear whilst on that roof.
Look at the gapes in the wood
Impressive that you use screws instead of staples or nails, costs a bit more but far superior in strength.
