Guys well done! I appreciate the balls on the 2 of you building your own modern house by yourselves! People used to build their own homes all the time back when you had dung floors and a fe logs for walls but this is something else! Really guys you are awesome! will be waiting excitedly for every new video til the day you guys unlock the front door and walk over the threshold. greetings from South Africa!
If you don't have one, you might want to acquire a 30x40 ft heavy duty tarp. As your project continues there will be stages and times you will really appreciate being able to cover the whole project. Congrats on getting the main sub-floor in!
I've been following all the pictures on facebook, so I know what's coming on the videos and I'm excited to see them. I've been a subscriber of your channel since the beginning and the little bell is clicked so I get all the notifications. I'm an old geezer who can't physically do what you two can so I really enjoy watching you guys do your thing. I like you guys and wish you nothing but the best in your journeys.
your video editing is awesome....really enjoy to watch every evening, you just replaced the news ! a little fun instead of negativity in the world is good.
holy power couple! this is so inspiring thank you two for putting these videos together I'm tired just watching the flooring getting installed let alone editing this whole video also! again thank you!
Jesse & Alyssa, just a fun fyi, the minimum number of screws required for a 36' X 36' floor is 4014...(97 for each full sheet...36 pcs. and 58 for each half sheet....9 pcs. Extras are also needed at the rim joists, aka the joist header) for it to be properly fastened AND also, that's the correct amount for lateral /diagonal bracing. Remember the screws brace as well as fasten! NOTE: that is a solid floor without a stairwell opening. But don't worry, many homes built by carpenters....but they're really just 'nail drivers'....have far less screws than you used and they've been standing for 40-50 years+. The concrete foundation/basement walls nearly negate the extra screws but they (and the bridging) would help keep the "I" joist from "laying down in a high wind". You did very well, excellent in fact! ....13
Congrats to the job so far. I was also impressed that you guys shouted out Canada during the wildfires it was very nice of you guys. Can't wait to see the next steps
It's absolutely incredible seeing you guys put this house together, take all the time you need to set yourselves straight! It'll help you in the long run, even if it does get a bit cold!
holy cow, you called her Love two times... only heard the endearment title once in a long time if any. nice to see you proud of her sir to address her properly. great video guys, keep up the fantastic job and I'll keep watching every one. Congrats~
There's something about getting a walkable surface where you can start to feel the final layout come together. It would cool to see a video outlining some of the coming steps so we know what to expect future videos to cover.
My spouse would tear my head off 3 times per day. Maybe you edit the times when you get angry at each other. Alissa has,so far. Now I know that you 2 will be happy after this ordeal. It will be time for some offspring,soon.
congratulations guys, its moving right along.. before you know it itll be next Christmas and you will be decorating your tree for the first time in your home!
Yay!! Congrats on getting that done, you 2 rock! Take your time building your home, when people rush, they make more mistakes than those who don't rush! Looking forward to more videos, :)
Awesome job you 2. Keep on doing what you can and share what you want when you can. I know it’s a lot to do this work and make content at the same time. You 2 are great.
You guys debated quite a bit about buy that combination frone end loader-backhoe. You made the best decision possible. You use that thing constantly for a million different things. It's saved you so much time and painful muscles and lower back ove the months, and will continue to be essential; until the entire build is done. It was the right decision, maybe the best tool decision you've made so far.
What are your living plan for this winter? You could move your RV in the garage area, it's already insulates and draft proof on 3 sides plus the floor, you just have to close the door area and put a large tarp on the ceiling/floor to have a better place than what you have now. I guess you could hurry to finish the bathroom in the basement to have a bit more comfort. You could use half of the basement as living quarters and the rest as a winter shop.
They have already said they hope to put the RV into the garage for the winter. Being as they are almost 2 weeks behind on posting videos, it's probably already there.
snakclub - They talked about that a while back, and there is enough room to move the RV into the garage. But will they? I have doubts. According to their recent Facebook posts....they have not even ordered their SIPs yet!!! Since they're custom made, I can only assume they will take a couple weeks to build and deliver. Then getting the SIPs on, the roof, and windows (also not ordered), I have serious, serious doubts they're actually going to be dried in before winter really hits.
You both still impress me on your ability to work together as a great team. These videos are great to show all the work involved. This is not a project for the light at heart. But thanks again, for sharing these videos with us.
Well done on getting to this milestone. It’s been great watching your progress. Very envious of what you all are doing - it’s a dream to be able to do similar.
Awesome guys! I'm glad you're done with the subfloor. I know the part where you are tired but just have to keep going, because you want to finish it so badly. It's nice to see you in action, makes me want to build something myself...
Naah Just determine the run and rise and set the tread rise (6-7 inches is nice for when you get older) and run (9.5-11.5 gives a solid tread) figure a 1" nose protrusion. Might take 10 minutes for that. With the total rise they have they will likely need a landing and L shaped stairs. 3 stringers for each leg. Might take a couple hours to cut the stringers and treads.
Get those stairs built and put up a temporary wall with a door down there, you have a totally insulated basement get a heater and you got a heated workshop
YOU BOTH WORK SO HARD. GOOD TO SEE SOMETHING GO SO SMOOTH FOR YOU ALL. LOOKS REALLY NICE. LOVE YOUR VIDEOS. WON'T YOU BE GLAD WHEN IT IS ALL DONE AND YOU CAN SIT BACK AND GO AHHHHHH!
You guys rock ! You both seem so happy. It's really fun to watch your videos when there are no glitches or problems to worry about. We are all very happy for you . If I had a construction company.......I would hire Alyssa in a jiffy ......ok, Jessie also I guess :-)
... leading to pooling of water in the channels and particularly in the gaps between the aluminium facing in contact with the plywood and near end grain! Also hides leaks if a problem does occur with the heating loops! Is that really such a 'good' idea?
Well I just hope you remember to get Bugaboo to sign off on his inspection, terrible when you get to the end and that's missing. I am impressed with this product and yes I can see how the alignment makes it a challenge but it was very good to see that Warmboard sent you the layout to go by. Makes it so much easier. And I agree, the tubing need to be closer to the end of the project when there is no danger of it being cut or nicked by something falling. Closer to the time when the finished floors are going down.
love your videos! Looking forward to seeing you guys install the radiant heating system. Learned alot from your vids both what to do and what mistake/mishaps can happened. Keep it up!
Great job guys thank you so much for the videos. I have absolutely no idea what it takes to produce these but, I thurly enjoy them and your journey. Again thank you so much, give bug a boo a pet for me.
The next step should be to install rough stairs (as compared to finished stairs) from the garage to the deck... get rid of those ladders and save yourself time and effort and reduce risk!
We would like to go to the store and maybe out to lunch, one of these days - with you guys, via TH-cam of course. To those of us who wish we could, but likely will never get to build our own home - yes, we would like to go to lunch too.
Greetings from Norway :) Nice job! But I think it will be worth the effort to make a temporary stairway, as that is so much easier to get up, compared to that ladder.
Thanks for sharing again, only bad part is I wish I was doing the same. Keep up the hard work, getting done is number one and share when you can. We can hold out - maybe....?
Your pace, your decision on videos.... 5 to 10 minute videos here or there is fine with me. The important thing is that the home gets done at some point and done Right! Bob, Eastern Long Island, NY

I'm so happy for you getting the subfloor built. It's looking more like a home all the time.
I've been following all the pictures on facebook, so I know what's coming on the videos and I'm excited to see them. I've been a subscriber of your channel since the beginning and the little bell is clicked so I get all the notifications. I'm an old geezer who can't physically do what you two can so I really enjoy watching you guys do your thing. I like you guys and wish you nothing but the best in your journeys.
Going from Iceboard to Warmboard! great job dealing with the weather.
your video editing is awesome....really enjoy to watch every evening, you just replaced the news ! a little fun instead of negativity in the world is good.
holy power couple! this is so inspiring thank you two for putting these videos together I'm tired just watching the flooring getting installed let alone editing this whole video also! again thank you!
the quality of your videos are excellent and what you guys have built is simply amazing

Y’all take your time. Enjoy it. Y’all are building great memories and a house! Happy for y’all!
You two are so precise in your work and dogged in your persistence. I think I would have given up right around digging the trench for the water line.
Congrats to the job so far. I was also impressed that you guys shouted out Canada during the wildfires it was very nice of you guys. Can't wait to see the next steps
This is AWESOME seeing your progress.. I remember binge watching your videos before anything was built..!
I have binged watched from about 1/2 way. Some nights,there will be 4 videos that I missed and ...it's 2 AM....
I'm so glad you're back on TH-cam. Glad to see it's finally getting there.
Seeing you reach this milestone puts a smile on my face, thanks for sharing your journey.
It's absolutely incredible seeing you guys put this house together, take all the time you need to set yourselves straight! It'll help you in the long run, even if it does get a bit cold!
Groovin music on the install. Great job, looks great with the drone footage.
Yay! Good Job!
One suggestion, bucket + rope instead of carrying things up/down the ladder or tossing them at each other.
I said it before and I will say it again and again You guys are awesome!
Alyssa you always do an amazing job editing the videos
It's so great to have the videos back!
holy cow, you called her Love two times...
only heard the endearment title once in a long time if any.
nice to see you proud of her sir to address her properly.
great video guys, keep up the fantastic job and I'll keep watching every one.
Congrats~
soaringtractor so.
No reason to get married if you don't have to.
Know it's an old video but that warm board makes it look like you have a floor already. Love it!!!
So glad you are back to editing the videos!! Love the progress! Cant wait to see the timber frame install footage.
Get those stairs in! Even if it's only a temporary staircase you will appreciate it beyond your wildest imagination! Great job guys, You're doin' it!
Captn Jack ... I think I would have done it before the subfloor went in, major safety factor all the way around.
What a team 😊 very impressive 🚜
You guys rock! I totally love watching your journey and getting to know you through your story. Totally good stuff and worth while!
I so totally 'get' the laying down and enjoying a nice, clean, level, flat surface which is not dirt!! Looking good!!
Congrats another milestone completed! Drone footage awesome.
Well done. Still Enjoying the build. I always remember that all the finish work takes longer than the major construction.
Kills me when the video is wrapping up.. can't wait for the next one!!!
BOOM! Way to go, another big step done and dusted. GO you! (then rest and recover) Then GO again!
Thanks for getting these videos out for us, and looking forward to what comes next!
Well done guys, a big moment for you both. As we say in the UK, more power to your elbow. And thank you for sharing the video.
There's something about getting a walkable surface where you can start to feel the final layout come together. It would cool to see a video outlining some of the coming steps so we know what to expect future videos to cover.
Love watching you two working together, it does take a team. Well done so far, major RESPECT.
My spouse would tear my head off 3 times per day.
Maybe you edit the times when you get angry at each other. Alissa has,so far.
Now I know that you 2 will be happy after this ordeal.
It will be time for some offspring,soon.
Stay frosty. Don't get complacent. Work safely at all times. I'll be watching 😄
congratulations guys, its moving right along.. before you know it itll be next Christmas and you will be decorating your tree for the first time in your home!
Yay!! Congrats on getting that done, you 2 rock! Take your time building your home, when people rush, they make more mistakes than those who don't rush! Looking forward to more videos, :)
love this so much. lots of love and encouragement from Cork Ireland. Well done cant wait for the next bit.
Awesome to see you guys back, loving the videos. Cannot wait to see it till the end.
The backhoe has been a God send. Thanks for sharing your journey.
Amen. It's demanding a raise. We're all screwed! :)
Can't wait to see when you are starting with the timberframe!
It's what I've been waiting for too.
Awesome job you 2. Keep on doing what you can and share what you want when you can. I know it’s a lot to do this work and make content at the same time. You 2 are great.
You guys are just super. What a great job you're doing on your house. The videos are just superb!
You guys debated quite a bit about buy that combination frone end loader-backhoe. You made the best decision possible. You use that thing constantly for a million different things. It's saved you so much time and painful muscles and lower back ove the months, and will continue to be essential; until the entire build is done.

I like your thinking.
They have already said they hope to put the RV into the garage for the winter. Being as they are almost 2 weeks behind on posting videos, it's probably already there.
They said on Facebook yesterday they still plan on getting the house dried in before winter hits... They are using SIPs, so we shall see...
Thanks for the help. English is a second language so i'm far from perfect but I'm always thankfull for help to make the meaning of the message pass.
snakclub - They talked about that a while back, and there is enough room to move the RV into the garage. But will they? I have doubts.

What a team you work so well together ❤️
You both still impress me on your ability to work together as a great team. These videos are great to show all the work involved. This is not a project for the light at heart. But thanks again, for sharing these videos with us.
Amazing Progress! Alissa's toilet directional view comment almost made me fall out of my office chair! Good stuff!
Well done on getting to this milestone. It’s been great watching your progress. Very envious of what you all are doing - it’s a dream to be able to do similar.
Awesome guys! I'm glad you're done with the subfloor. I know the part where you are tired but just have to keep going, because you want to finish it so badly. It's nice to see you in action, makes me want to build something myself...
I love that your videos are way longer than 10 minutes most of the time!
I am very impressed that you guys did it in 3 days proud of you and got to see your videos on the 6th 7th and 8th of November 2017
you have all that extra lumber build some temporary stairs make life easy! Work smarter not harder! Awesome job!
Stairs are really difficult to build.
Naah Just determine the run and rise and set the tread rise (6-7 inches is nice for when you get older) and run (9.5-11.5 gives a solid tread) figure a 1" nose protrusion. Might take 10 minutes for that. With the total rise they have they will likely need a landing and L shaped stairs. 3 stringers for each leg. Might take a couple hours to cut the stringers and treads.
Glad to see you guys back and making such great progress! Good music choice btw!
So interesting watching u , enjoy get some rest and go eat, take care of your selves , looking forward to seeing u again
Great Job! Hang in there ..we are enjoying the adventure!
Get those stairs built and put up a temporary wall with a door down there, you have a totally insulated basement get a heater and you got a heated workshop
temp stairs would be fine.
How are you two tired? It’s only taken you like an hour and fifteen minutes to do the entire floor! Your resolve and endurance are amazing! Great job!
Anthony Smith, thank you for being the thorough officer of grammar.
Well done to the both of you. I really enjoy keeping up to date with your progress on the house build.
Jessica Ryan I I also enjoy keeping up with your progress, it is very inspiring.
You two work well together. You're both very lucky!
Congratulations on meeting this milestone. Feeling the good vibe of it all. Thanks for sharing your journey.
Congratulations! Ready for the next stage. That's, like, totally tubular! Actually.
congrats on finishing this step!!
Get some stairs framed in there lol so you dont have to struggle up and down a ladder
It will be done when its done you guys have done a fabulous job be very very proud of each other you really are inspiration cheers
Cheers ! Alyssa, excellent drone footage. Jesse , you da man !
YOU BOTH WORK SO HARD. GOOD TO SEE SOMETHING GO SO SMOOTH FOR YOU ALL. LOOKS REALLY NICE. LOVE YOUR VIDEOS. WON'T YOU BE GLAD WHEN IT IS ALL DONE AND YOU CAN SIT BACK AND GO AHHHHHH!
I am more than happy for you guys
I want to say thank you for sharing your project, and taking the time to do so. I can't imagine the people who don't like this. Thank you again!
You guys rock ! You both seem so happy. It's really fun to watch your videos when there are no glitches or problems to worry about. We are all very happy for you . If I had a construction company.......I would hire Alyssa in a jiffy ......ok, Jessie also I guess :-)
GREAT JOB guys. Looking really good. Now buggaboo has a new area to explore.
Brilliant work you two. Nice filming and editing Alyssa. You're really developing a nifty style. Wonderful work.
I would suggest sealing all the joints with silicone sealant to protect from rain and from possible future leaks.
... leading to pooling of water in the channels and particularly in the gaps between the aluminium facing in contact with the plywood and near end grain! Also hides leaks if a problem does occur with the heating loops! Is that really such a 'good' idea?
you doing a great job . It don't matter how long it take keep up the good work
Well I just hope you remember to get Bugaboo to sign off on his inspection, terrible when you get to the end and that's missing.

Looking awesome! Thanks for sharing. Cannot wait to see the timber frame go up.
You guys rock! Great drone camera work on this one too!
love your videos! Looking forward to seeing you guys install the radiant heating system. Learned alot from your vids both what to do and what mistake/mishaps can happened. Keep it up!
Glad you didn't fall on the ice. Great work. Save time for each other.
Great job guys thank you so much for the videos. I have absolutely no idea what it takes to produce these but, I thurly enjoy them and your journey. Again thank you so much, give bug a boo a pet
for me.
Brilliant, another big stage done. Well done fellers!
I'm loving all this, it'll almost be a pity when you finally finish, lol.
Congrats!!! That is a HUGE feat in itself!
And now the Mom in me will stop being all YOU'RE TOO CLOSE TO THE EDGE! and DON'T FALL! Haha!
The next step should be to install rough stairs (as compared to finished stairs) from the garage to the deck... get rid of those ladders and save yourself time and effort and reduce risk!
You will do it! Thanks for sharing.
Hey, if you haven't been there yet, or even if you have... Wolf Lodge is a grrrrrrrreat place to get dinner!
This video needs a 'VERTIGO WARNING". LOL
Thank you for the great video!
GREAT JOB!!!!! Congrats on this phase!!!! On to the next challenge! It is going to be a awesome HOUSE!!!!❣️
We would like to go to the store and maybe out to lunch, one of these days - with you guys, via TH-cam of course.
To those of us who wish we could, but likely will never get to build our own home - yes, we would like to go to lunch too.
Greetings from Norway :) Nice job! But I think it will be worth the effort to make a temporary stairway, as that is so much easier to get up, compared to that ladder.

Awesome to see the progress! You guys rocked that out pretty quick!
Haha. Alysha "I look forward to not having to lift anything heavy for a while" awesome attitude.
Loved your music choices for this video! Looking great guys!!
You guys are awesome! Thanks for all your work on sharing your progress
Congratulations, another milestone completed.
Looks great. The down stairs area looks massive. Love the progress video's
