Your numbers seem high but if we look how big it is, that price is fabulous! For all the people that criticize how, when you do things just show them your roof. That’s hard work, lots of maths and money invested and most of the time, a one man band. It would have costed around 25 /30 grand from a builder. You look proud and you have to be proud. Great work JAZ! 🍾
You've done a spectacular job on that gorgeous roof. Cost overruns and mistakes...well they say hind sight is everything...but when doing diy construction, it just is what it is and no sense to reflect too much. You have achieved so much and have a lot to be proud of. Well done Jasper👏👏👏 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
In the UK the Dutch have always have had a reputation for long pockets and short arms...and as I now live in S. America everyone must bargain but what I most admire is your attitude to support local businesses , maybe pay a bit more and be a part of your community. Support where you live!
An excellent job, well done and very good value for what you spent, will last a lifetime and enabled you to make many videos that I thoroughly enjoyed watching. The feeling of achievement and satisfaction you must get from all your labours is beyond priceless and you acquire more knowledge and skills with each stage of the rebuild. Next winter you will be able to continue the work inside protected from the weather as you double the living space. The Ghost Village is like a piece of heaven in central Portugal.
Jasper, you made out quite well with the cost of the roof. To the best of my knowledge, labor is usually 2x or more the cost of materials. Pat yourself on the back, you did very well. Now that you have done the whole shabang with cost and needed labour for doing a roof, don't be surprised if the neighbors start pulling your ear for information.
Not to shabby for what amounts to a lifetime roof! They do last a long time, don't they? Plus the tile are beautiful. I have only seen two commercial buildings with clay tiles. Not a big building product in Pennsylvania! Aside from things you may or may not have done incorrectly (we may never know) you have the satisfaction of knowing you did it and will be better next time. Thanks for taking all the time to record this journey! Can't wait to see the interior finishings.
Gosh dread to think how much a roofer would charge for that sq mtr of roof. Approx 8k a fabulous price, of course it was hard work but great video content and time away from computer work. Definitely a video on what you would have done differently.
Hazel ☘️ … Gee Jasper I’ll be using plastic bags on my roof at those prices plus worker ! Great you had bought so much a few years ago , and walking around it for those years 😂 Very insightful indeed 👌 🙏☘️😘
I think you did very well for this roof. In the US 7800 Euros is about 8400 US dollars. My neighbor here in Milwaukee just had a shingle roof replaced, which probably has a 30 year life, for over 10000US and it was a very small roof on a two bedroom home single story. So that would come out to 333 US per year. Your roof should last the rest of your life, so say you live to 100, which I think you will, assuming you are about 40 years old, comes out to 140 US/129 Euro per year, but then you did about twice the roof size so make it and equivalent of $70 US 65 Euro per year per roof. You did very well. It ain't gonna get cheaper. PS....also...you replaced all the rafters and decking! Man, you did very well Jasper. Also, the sense of pride you will have looking at the beautiful roof for the next half century is priceless.
Great job on the roof! Really interesting - thanks for breaking everything down, and I appreciate you mentioning the fact that you would have earned more being behind the computer, but you’d rather not be doing that anymore. 👍🏽 It’s been great following your journey since you got here - looking forward to more Jasper and JasperTown in the future! 🙌🏽
Hello Jasper, very good work 👍and also good humour 😄 and adorable dogs . Thank you very much for sharing and also for sharing the costs, because I also bought a farm near where you are and I have to do the same work on my roof almost the same size. Keep up the good work 👋
That's a really good price and even more reason why we might just have a go ourselves to replace ours! We had a quote to take off our metal roof and replace it with sandwich panel for over 10,000 euros 🤔😱 and it's not as big as your roof
I am excited for the start of the interior, that is my favourite. I made this channel to help with inspiration in such cases as yours. I have great ideas and a huge variety of style choices for every area of the home. Take a look through and choose your style for guidance of design and colour and outcome. Can you show us your layout plan for the interior, so we can help with ideas. Make yourself a mood board, it is where you choose the look of your bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, lounge etc...:)
Where did you get the foil rolls from Jasper? I couldn't quite make out the name of the place. Its going over my insulation to help keep the sun out and add extra thermal value in the winter 👍
No leaks so far..it has a water barrier so I’m not worried about that. I think the other roofs in the village would blow of first .. and there still here so :)
Wow! Jasper, you did it excelente job and saved a lot of money in labor! Can you please tell me how many square meters is your roof? Comparing with the US, I don’t think that you paid a high price. A friend of mine will replace a 200 square meters spanish terracota roof tiles in Florida, for “cement “ imitation spanish tiles and just the black ( plastic?) cover ( without the wood bins) for U$s 70.000.🙈.
@@mariadange06 I presume its only the wood and tiling. 3-4 men and 3-4 days. Its only a small roof, In fact I would have thought Jasper would have completed the roof by now, but I dont know that weather he had to put up with ect.
Question did you order your windows and doors before it goes up more ?is TH-cam video pay you this kind of money ?Or do you have a job we don’t know about you’re spending a lot of money on property and a 1/2 of a houses and material that’s why I asked🍻🍻🍻✌️👍🤙❤️🇵🇹❤️
Meu caro senhor essa casa vai ficar cara tambem é muíto grande. Quando acabar as obras vai ficar có uma bela casa. Diga me uma coisa meu caro senhor é Holandês ou Inglês ? Gosto muito dos seus vidios é uma pessoa muito engraçada tem muito sentido de humor ahahah😂😂😂 Mas para lhe dizer a verdade acho que os materiais de construçao civil estao muito caros. Entao até à próxima ❤ 🐅🐆🐅🐆🕊🕊🕊🐝🐞 e parabens tem feito um trabalho magnifico
It does make sense in Portugal: As more and more foreigners buy land and start building and renovating, the smart-alecky opportunists raise the prices... that's the law of "offer and search for"

Thank You! Very informative,, I do remember that video where you looked at prices in The Netherland and Portugal.

Looking forward to the roof completion. Then you can work inside!

I actually have people asking me to do there roof .. can you imagine :)

Depends on how much time you have got left.. :p

iM LOOKING FORWARD FOR THE COMPLETION OF YOUR ROOF PROJECT...CONGRATS ON YOUR HARD WORK...
Fantastic vlog I have shopped around its great fun .

Great you had bought so much a few years ago , and walking around it for those years 😂

Grand job, no mistakes.
Such good work and fun
Seems like a very reasonable cost. It would be interesting to know what a builder would have charged.

A lot of money but a good investment 👍
Nice good work, it's your bill carry on with the good work in till the next one, good weekend to all.

I think that is an excellent price and it looks beautiful.
Considering the size of your roof, I think the price is fair enough. If you'd paid a roofer you'd have paid double that and more. So well done so far!
But you can be proud of your work and pad you in the back every time you look at the house.
nice show and tell
You have done a great job looks nice
$11,265. 🇨🇦🙋♀️🇨🇦‼️Good Job💪🏆👍
Good work Jasper! Irene from Indiana.
That's a really good price and even more reason why we might just have a go ourselves to replace ours! We had a quote to take off our metal roof and replace it with sandwich panel for over 10,000 euros 🤔😱 and it's not as big as your roof
I would say that's not a bad price and look at the experience you have gained that's worth considering

Yes I could definitely use some help with that.. I lack some experience there :)

My Dutch wife just translated you for me. Sofferagems in Castelo 😅😅😅
Yesss exactly :)
🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤ Well done dear Jasper.
Sounds like you got a good price. The only real test will be - does it leak? And does it stay in place in a wind storm. Keep up the good work.
No leaks so far..it has a water barrier so I’m not worried about that. I think the other roofs in the village would blow of first .. and there still here so :)

Lembre-se da ameaça em ser despedido...o tempo está a esgotar-se🤭para finalizar o telhado.
Tambem é um pouco louco por andar de chinelos no telhado. 😮
I was thinking to rename the channel to ‘building on flip flops’ :p
@@GhostTownVlogs 😁👍🍷
O.M.G. You are on the roof in flip-flops. 🤨🤨🤨
No wayyyy.. :p
Enjoy the vids !=8)
get a dead cat for the wind roar on your microphone
Yes.. I’m working on the sound issue :)
@@GhostTownVlogs good video tho - keep up the great work
You saved so much but remember the labour would have cost you at lest 14, 000 euro or more .well done. 😂😂
👍
At least four grand on labour depending how many workers and length of time they would take and / or they maybe Cowboys too!
only 4k? I would have thought closer to 5-10k per person.
Soon we will know :)
@@mariadange06 I presume its only the wood and tiling. 3-4 men and 3-4 days. Its only a small roof, In fact I would have thought Jasper would have completed the roof by now, but I dont know that weather he had to put up with ect.
Not bad for a roof that's going to last for you 😮😅
Question did you order your windows and doors before it goes up more ?is TH-cam video pay you this kind of money ?Or do you have a job we don’t know about you’re spending a lot of money on property and a 1/2 of a houses and material that’s why I asked🍻🍻🍻✌️👍🤙❤️🇵🇹❤️
No still need to buy those. TH-cam is paying for my coffees mainly, not more :)
@@GhostTownVlogs Are you kidding me I would let TH-cam pay for my WEED and I’ll pay for your coffee 👍✌️🤙❤️🇵🇹❤️

sorry to see that you did not give a big shout-out to all your free labor (all the people who helped you with your roof) Jasper
Couldn’t find anything else negative ey..
Wow, that's a crappy comment, how do you know the labour's was free, very presumptious of you.😮
Tell me why has everything gone up nearly double? It doesn´t make sense!
Well I think wood for instance has been underprices for ages..
It does make sense in Portugal: As more and more foreigners buy land and start building and renovating, the smart-alecky opportunists raise the prices... that's the law of "offer and search for"
2nd :p
Who was first but I must congratulate you on your endeavours.
Keep at it
Hazel 👍 …
Well done Bob 👍
I don’t see who claimed first?
So you are actually first at claiming first …. Yay !
🙏☘️😘
bargain
I feel that the video with the mistakes is going to be very long
Yep :)
