Things are moving along nicely. Great having your own machines. We are enjoying watching the process. Have a great weekend, Ben 👍
Thank you Ben !
I cant believe how much building materials have gone up! Id be interested in how much energy that actually saves. My wife is in favor of a warmer house so it would be worth it around my house
Yeah, I often wondered myself how much it actually helps. I’m sure some engineer figured it out somewhere. 🤣
Thanks for sharing all the progress Tom. Looking really good, and I love the attention to detail. Cheers, Mike.
Thanks buddy !
I used 1.25 poly and pushed my 1” pex into it from the outside of my hole to the water heater. I also placed 1.25 poly where I put 3/4 pex in the slab. Good work man!
Yeah, that’s the best way to do it 👍
@@fatefarmspa I will be watching your build and learning!
Your home project is coming along nicely, Tom! It's a good idea to add the foam insulation. I 💯 agree with you about the cost of material. With my main job, I have to follow metrics like inflation. The government wants us to believe inflation is in the 3 to 4% range, when in reality it is at least 8% for consumers. I am really enjoying following your home build project. Thank you for sharing with us. Have a great weekend, buddy 👍
Thank you very much ! I agree with you. There is a lot of smoking and mirrors going on right now in our economy gonna be a very interesting election. It’s funny all of my suppliers in my daytime job told me the last couple years the inflated prices were temporary due to supply and demand issues. I just got an email today. My hot water tank prices are going up another 7% so I guess the Covid pricing stuck and the increases are coming again 🤦🏻♂️. Hope you too. Have a great weekend.
Morning Tom , y’all’s new home is going to be beautiful . 👍🏻🇺🇸
Thanks buddy it can’t come fast enough
I guess I can say that I have never seen that 😂. Dang man, that is pretty wild stuff. Everything is looking really good sir!
Haha. Thanks buddy !
Awesome, Tom. Things are moving along well. It is hard to believe how the price of building supplies has risen.
Thanks buddy! I assume you guys are dealing with the same thing up there?
@fatefarmspa yes. With everything. Our provincial government charges us 15% tax on everything, and the feds have us taxed crazy on fuel, which brings the price of everything up. Right now we are paying 45% tax on fuel and starting April our prime minister is adding another 16% carbon tax on fuel. He has the entire middle class broke, worse prime Minister in history.
Kenny, do they build like this in your area?
@oakiewoodsman not the block, but the process is the same using concrete. We use engineered slab or slab on grade. Slab on grade is the most popular. It's very similar to what Tom is building. Footer, four-foot frost wall, and insulated slab, three pours.
@@OpenAirAdventure wow!
Looking good Tom! The cost of construction materials here are really high too.
Last year we paid 78.00/sheet for the Blue foam board. You are doing it right though!
Thanks buddy ! 78 is crazy high 😵
Lookin great Tom. 3 times as much the foam board. Jumpins.
Sure like watching machines work. My Massey Ferguson 14 garden tractor with front blade would have been great inside, to push the pea gravel into the foam board. 👍🏻👍🏻👋👋
It’s coming as long. H as be a great day. 👍🏻👍🏻👋👋
Thank you ! Yeah, it’s unbelievable what costs are. I enjoy watching Equipment run also.🤣
LOOKING GOOD BRO! HOPE NO RAIN FOR AWHILE
Thank you ! Yeah, let’s hope we all get a break
Good Morning Sir, this is a very nice sexy red excavator at work ; ) Keep Up Your OUTSTANDING work Sir CHeers !!!
Thank you buddy !
Yes, very nice machine!!
Can't afford to build a house, but we want to make sure it's energy efficient.....
I think some regulations need to be suggestions. Between that and the cost of building, most people will never have a new house. 🤔😤
At this rate I might have to sell a kidney 🤣
@@fatefarmspa hahaha. For real 😁
👍👍
Thank you !
The cost of all building material has skyrocketed in the last 4 years. Newer homes are being built way more energy efficient and air tight. So, tight that if you fart, you smell,it for a week lol.
Yeah it’s unbelievable how much everything has gone on I know I don’t make 100% more in my wages within the last four years🤣. what is crazy for one of the requirements before they give me an occupancy permit? They actually are vacuum testing the house to test for air leaks on the exterior of the building.
@@fatefarmspa wow, I had no idea they would vacuum test the house 😳
