What is wrong with digging a hole in the ground to live in? Are you "privileged"? The closer you live like an animal, the more human you are, and you are almost there. Start digging, and gather bugs for dinner.
You only have one bedroom with two single beds ? Where are the kids supposed to sleep if you only have one bedroom ?Your dining room is in the living room ? You have kids putting their hands on the wall at the stairs & they will get dirty in no time. The lines on the brick wall outside are showing. Nice build but too small.
While the house itself and the process of building it together is incredible, I just want to say that the fact that you got through the whole process joyfully, dancing, laughing, and working passionately is in itself the most impressive accomplishment! Well done!
They show those parts for the camera. There are of course the normal doubts, tiredness, and frustrations that occur in every project. Not to say they didn't enjoy themselves, that's just human.
I consider myself a jack of all trades but This dude is literally a master of all trades! I wonder if people realize the amount of skill it takes to do all of these sufficiently. Cement, carpentry, plumbing, electrical, sheetrock, flooring, etc...really is amazing.
I’m my opinion everyone should be taught this in school.. it should be a standard class for everyone. My pop built our house from the shell of a burnt mobile home and taught me how to run wires and use a breaker box, pour cement, etc so now it’s all common sense to me. I am truly grateful for the skills that I have. It makes it super easy to find a job that I find really easy since I’ve been doing that my whole life
Well , having been involved with building many homes and then finally building my own home, i can say that you dont need to be a master at any of the skills that you mentioned to build a home, you just have to be competent with a few of them, for instance, the metal roof is as easy a job as anything is. and i'm not sure of the building method he is using im assuming its a form of styrocrete, but kind of like legos. i've built homes using SIPS and hollow styroblock that is later filled with steel and then poured and kind of the same methods. and i'm sure he had his learning curve with a few things. The admirable part of the whole thing to me is that he is showing the initiative to actually take part in the quality of his and his families future. from the radiant floor heat, to the high quality filtration for his water he is showing that he is conservative with resources and careful about his an their health, i wish him and his family many good years knowing his family /parents/whomever lives in the home the home that he can tell his kids, "daddy and mommy built this house" oh. and the key to his success may just be the partner who has been willing to learn the same skills as he has. That is a a rarity in todays world.
I'd bet the farm there was lots of TH-cam watching before each new task. And then, during each task. I'm not denigrating their work at all. I just feel sure they didn't have these skills from the start. But it is how we learn. My only disappointment was the lack of an exterior finish.
@centexan As a skilled tradesman myself I think your assumption is incorrect. This guy definitely has the skillset for his build. I've seen other couples on TH-cam where they seen allot of how to videos and it shows in their build quality big time. From using the right materials and the right tools this guy definitely knew what he was doing.
صراحة انبهرت هكذا تبدا علاقات عندما يكون حب واحترام اتمنى لكما سعادة وادعو الله ان تكون علاقاتكما امتن من هذا منزل وان تتمكنا من العيش فيه بسعادة واوقات طيبة 🎉🎉🎉🎉
House is nice, but elderly may have a problem walking up the stairs, or reaching up as to open cabinets in the kitchen very high under the ceiling. Imagine yourself being old and frail.
@@awiercioch1 I'm into house building since the 40's, there's practically EVERYTHING falling out of safety rules in that house. Guess I would never have a house like this.
This was the best time lapse video I ever watched! I wasn’t planning to watch the whole video, but I just couldn’t stop. I am very impressed with this dedicated young couple. They created an efficient and warm home and did some crazy dancing while doing it. Congratulations to all.
Back in 1978 when I was only in 4th grade. My father, who was an aerospace engineer, fulfilled a life dream of his by moving us to a much less populated area in California, where he purchased a mobile home and a 1.1 acre lot and we lived in the mobile home while he built a house that he designed BY HIMSELF. He did later hire one guy to help him with framing, hanging drywall, and installing the roof tile along with some other misc stuff, and he hired a local cabinet maker to make the cabinets but other than that, he did everything else by himself. We thought he was nuts ... but now I definitely see the appeal in building your own home ... and the fact that you two work so well together is just icing on the cake. Nice video and nice home!
@@bwana-ma-coo-bah425 I got my first degree in electronics, but then went into IT professionally as computers were my hobby since I was 12. I was fortunate enough that my parents could afford to get me a computer back then and I went nuts with it. Taught myself how to program and even learned how to make some electronic modifications to the Commodore back in the 80s. Network Engineering and Java development have been my career staples professionally since the 90s. Looks like I forgot to mention that the house my father built was a 2400 square foot house. Fairly large house for one man to build but he loved the process. He completed the house around 1981 I think. He passed away from colon cancer in 1993 unfortunately.
My dad, also an aerospace engineer in Cali, at Hughes, did similar. It was 1971 when they started laying off all the engineers. We moved to Ohio. He built a fireproof cement home by himself and heated it with resistance in the floors. He built it as an arch, the most secure shape in history. He built it so the sunlight would shine right through an opening on the front door on the first day of spring, the solistice.
@@bwana-ma-coo-bah425 Interestingly I thought I had replied to your question, but now I don't see it. My career path started when I was 12 when I got a Commodore 64. Computers always fascinated me and they still do all these years later. I got my first degree in electronics and my second in Computers and Information Systems. I've been a Network Engineer my entire career. I was born for it. ☺I also develop in Java - one of my more recent passions.
I love that your father worked so hard to give your family a home of your own. So many of us out here never had that and still don't. Blessings and love to your papa!
This is what i call a real family and real relationship between two people who love each other!!! its one in million!!! literaly! may g-d bless you guys!!!! you are amazing!
Imagine building your own house from foundation to furniture, there's so much skill and hard working involved. And they also look so happy. Amazing video guys, I'm so happy for you, hugs from Brazil!
Well we started with a piece of property that had nothing made a drive way got electrical pole ect all in all we are two years almost in with 15% left to finish the experience was once in a life time as my husband and I did all the work and building our house is almost able to be Licea le but snow has a big part to do with the delay so this make me happy and honestly make us keep going ❤❤
You can too, My wife and I have built 3. First a 'Cord wood home. Sold this to go on mission trips. Next a standard home construction, 4 rooms, 1 1/2 bath. Sold it to move to Arkansas. Are present and last house. Built after deconstructing our old church, for a new one was built while we were on mission strips. All 3 we did from the ground up. It is fun.
@@jerryrhampton7598 Jerry, great name...I was probably named after you; In figure that Since you are building your Third? Home, you might be older than me... Meaning that I'm younger than you and was therefore named after you... Kudos. Birds build their own houses sing, are happy and brightly colored. Bridget moving to other birds houses are dull they're not colored and they're boring. They do not whistle or sing. Why let someone take them joy of building your house? Especially the cordwood home you built. That was the alternative home I studied and absolutely fell in love with it!!! Are you in North West Arkansas? Just guessing:-) (Not really)
Imagine. If everyone had these qualities, housing anywhere wouldn't cost so much. People these days don't have any idea what "sweat equity" is. They also live beyond their means and in general "want" too much. A small house like this or a simple ranch style house is the most cost effective and efficient to build. Every roof pitch or outside corner of a house adds $1000's if not $10000's of cost to a house.
@@Ryan-hw7ow imagine if everyone had these qualities and no job. they can easily build their own home. you cant possibly think you can build all this when you come home after daily 12 hour work days. also, the fridge and stove are a bad idea. there should always be space to allow for future upgrades or if standards change to the sizes.
@@BobRooney290 dude it’s Eastern Europe. appliances are compact and always have been. And they don’t have access all over the place like we do here in America. They get the essential food they need and that’s it. They don’t have to have a refrigerator full of random shit.
I don’t know if you know it or not but this unconventional house is amazing . Especially the fact that you worked together from start to finish. My wife and I have been working on this old house we live in for 30 years. The house was built in 61 and we have renovated it all ourselves. Now our daughter has started on a house ( her great grandparents old dog trot) and we are teach/helping her. Our son is next. Just know that you are an inspiration to a lot of people.
Not really unconventional. Most of the homes in my country are built like this, i myself have been apart of building 5 houses like these in the last 2 years.
Nothing solidifies the foundation of a marriage better than a couple who built their own home together, may they have a prosperous rest of their lives together!
that is until she makes babies and hears how much she can make with alimony and child support! enter the divorce attorney and lets see how well this works out for the young man who gave it all to build a house only to lose it to getting divorce raped!
As a budding DIYer, this is so pleasurable to watch. The fact that you are able to turn your hands and skills to every aspect of the build, and the teamwork and smiles throughout is a true testament to your incredible achievement! Loved it :)
The amount of physical & digital work it took to make that house, record it all with varying angles and great sound quality, compiling said recording into a single video, creatively editing/ compiling it with unique transitions and differing clips to make a 25 minute masterpiece.. is pretty phenomenal. bravo
No, the outside looks unfinished. Surely the neighbours don't want to look out at this. The work they have done is incredible and they deserve a lot of credit but you see this with a lot of European self builds; once people have it nice they don't care what looks like outside.
@@philwoodall9023 inclined to agree that it looks unfinished. Great work on the inside but the house looks like it needs more. This is the only video I've seen from this channel though so it may be improved now.
@@philwoodall9023is here people, is how you disagree with people on the internet. You state what they did right and what they did wrong. I agree, good work on their part but they are not finished yet.
I would imagine that there's probably some law loophole that eases taxation on real estate if it is unfinished, there's plenty of examples around the world for something like that. I know there was a subsidy in China if you build a two story house, but a lot of people just never finished the second floor, and pocketed the money.
@@philwoodall9023 maybe they want a criminal to think there’s no reason to break in ?😂 Are you that one guy who reports their neighbour for them not trimming their lawn? Don’t be that guy. Usually an unfinished or unkept house is a sign of low income rather than laziness or a want to create an “eye sore”. Those who go out of their way to make more needless problems for their neighbours and or demand they halt a construction project, or change something, or do something to their “lawn” or anything petty for that matter, are usually seen as the neighbourhood assholes lol. If you think the neighbours care about “looking” at the building, that says more about your pettiness as opposed to their laziness, besides, it’s a matter of opinion what “looks” nice. Now if shit needs to meet the standards of “up to code” for “safety” that’s a different story.
this is like the best thing i’ve ever seen. the amount of sheer joy, passion, positivity and love contained in this single video could cure humanities ailments in one go. no single complaint, just love.
Wonderful! I built a tiny cob house in the late 90's, before "tiny houses" became a thing. I had so much fun doing it! It's very empowering to build your own house. I'm a 5' tall woman, and I got super buff hauling rocks, logs, water, and mud! ❤️
Que projeto incrível, trabalho na area de construção a quase 20 anos e nunca vi um profissional tão bom quanto esse homem, todos as etapas perfeitas. E o melhor é ver o casal construindo seus sonho com amor e alegria ❤❤❤ simplesmente fantástico esse vídeo.
I think it's awesome that the two of you guys did it together (not solely of course !), looks like very well thought out plan combining eco-friendly materials & design... from nothing it was dirt nothing there it's like y'all just went out & said house is going to be "right there"
السر هو ان هدا الرجل يتعامل مع المهنة بحب ويعتبرها فن .وليس عبء على عاتقه .مشكلتنا نحن العرب هو اننا نتعامل مع حرفت البناء على انها عداب وعقاب من الله بل ان البناء من اقل الناس شاءنا .وحينما يحس البناء بدالك الظلم والاحتقار لا يعمل بجد بل ان من العمال من يفسد العمل عنوة وينتقم من نظرة المجتمع له .

Building this for your parents was an act of honor and gratitude. God bless you for honoring your parents. P.S. Along with others I found your building and videography skills to be superb.
That's because they are paid to do this and they practiced a few times before making the video - you people really crack me up that you can't tell the difference between an actual couple and a couple that is paid to do DIY demonstrations.
You don't find it odd that everything is perfectly written, filmed, edited, no bad days? Lol. If they were really being helpful, don't you think they'd include tips on the rough parts they ran into nd how to avoid them? No, that's because they don't want you to think there are any.
@@orvil9223 This isn't a tutorial. They aren't showing you how to do it. If they were, it wouldn't be a time lapse. I think we all know it didn't go as smoothly as it looks. We can still appreciate the sheer magnitude of the task and the brilliance. Well, some of us can. SMH.
You guys worked so hard, but lovely together. You’ve got that whole Yin-Yang thing down perfectly. The house is beautiful and cozy and modern yet comfortable. Nice job, you two. I hope you have a long, joyous, healthy, prosperous, life together. And, may all your descendants thrive in life. Blessed be!❤
This reminds me a lot of me and my late boyfriend. You made me tear up. We had so much fun doing everything together - renovating, finishing a pole barn, gardening…getting rides in the bucket of the tractor, etc etc etc. I was pretty much his day laborer lol. We were joined at the hip for 5 years and acted like a couple married of 50. I miss him so much. Always cherish the relationship you two have together. Great job on the house guys. It’s definitely worth the memories.
@@entertheabyss9785 Who shit in your cereal man. I can admit that I can be a dick sometimes, but this is just a level of douchery. Let them talk about fond memories. We all have them, except you it seems.
I can’t imagine the sleepless nights from backaches for building this house. It’s incredible how much work it takes to build this. You two have done an amazing job and the fact that you can do it so joyfully! Just wow!!
Nie jest to takie proste posiąść wszystkie fachy, a Pan z Panią świetnie jak widać sobie poradzili i to jeszcze z ogromnym uśmiechem na ustach. Brawo aż miło na Was popatrzeć i aż się chce pracować. Pozdrawiam i życzę wszystkim tyle optymizmu ile posiadają Ci młodzi sympatyczni ludzie.
Это самое кайфовое видео длинною 25 минут, которое я смотрел и завидовал самой самой белой завистью и с таким умиротворением что просто...... До сих пор под впечатлением. Ребята вы одна из лучших пар на свете из тех что я встречал !!! Мира вам и здоровья
Я вот не пойму, неужели с таким способом его ветром не снесет, там же пена да легкие блоки? И арматуры в фундамент положили так мало, что прочность не сильно то повысится?
@@takoytotakoytovich2204 ну думаю, что это обусловлено территориальной пренадлежности, сомневаюсь, что этот момент не продумали они, хотя может это тупо экономия средств
They say, "Home is where the heart is." This is obviously true for you both. A lot of heart went into this home. While I'm sure it took time, it looks like you had a blast putting it together. It was fun watching you bring this project to life. You both deserve a big high five. Good luck to you both, and congratulations. I raise a toast to you both. Cheers! & Continued happiness.
I know zero about construction but was unable to stop watching this video. It is captivating to see you work the way you do. Pouring your love in your work. That little house is priceless ❤ Best wishes to this wonderful family :)
Honestly, it's wonderful to see a couple building their home... I want to believe that this is real and not just a video to gain followers... The couple is to be congratulated and the guy is really talented, plumbing, electrical, carpentry... May you be successful on your journey...👏👏👏👏👏
Amazing job!!! You guys look so young to have mastered masonry, carpentry, plumbing, electricity, tile work, etc... You two are incredibly talented and very funny. I love the harmony and respect you have for one another. I can feel that spark of love you share. Much peace and success to you.
This videographer has a remarkable talent! Without this Video none of this "building a life of memories" even happened. What a awesome house to unpack them in...over the coming years. You guys have a wall-to-wall & treetop tall passion for creating your dreams. You'll likely need many more projects to stay satisfied. Congratulations!
All the shots when they together are from a fixed position, the rest are her filming him or the other way around. They also use the tilt and pan function for their time laps shots here and there.
Just randomly came across this video this morning and I gotta say I loved every second of it. The quirkiness you two show while doing this just kept me smiling and occasionally laughing throughout the video. True relationship goals there.
@Repent and believe in Jesus Christ "And Oily Josh said unto them: "Fart it out your dickhole, pharisee." and the apostles did marvel upon his good works."
@Repent and believe in Jesus Christ... . And Jesus was a carpenter. He could build a wooden house. But not in 25 minutes. On the other hand, he could also do miracles. So who knows.
My husband and I built our front porch together and now we're working together to fence in our yard. (It's mostly him though right now bc I can't do the heavy lifting required, but I help where I can!) Does that count? 😁
I love the energy and mindset of this couple.. now that is what I call the ultimate relationship goal.... the way these two work together is pure symmetry!! secondly this guy is a master of all trades... the amount of time and sacrifice he had to do to master each skill is non negotiable.... well done to you both again... I actually enjoyed your home build... ❤❤❤❤
You guys made my day. So much positivity, hard labor, craftsmanship and sheer fun. Literally building your future. I wish you a wonderful life together!
Absolutely love this video. Such a great job; the foundation, the walls, the roof, the flooring, electrical, water...the dancing!!! It has it all. Absolutely beautiful couple! Thanks for sharing.
Yes! It is absolutely incredible for a house to be built by someone on it own from scratch. I just wonder how many different kind of skills and craftmanships involved in creating this house! Magnificent work, please have my salute! 😯😯😯
🌹I'm 52 years old living in USA California willing to retire at 55 if things keep going the way I planned, bought my first house last week, I'm glad I made a productive decision that has changed my financial status forever
I started pretty low investing in forex though with $5k thereabouts. The returns came massive. My son Joe is very happy , telling me of new friends he's meeting in the Area (Alvarez Harry) is a Blessing to my family
I'm a bit perplexed seeing him been mentioned here also Didn't know he has been good to so many people too this wonderful, I'm in my fifth trade with him and it has been super
Since you built this for elderly parents, I'd like to make a suggestion for others wanting to do the same. When people are young, they never think about the hazards in their home until they either get older or face a life changing illness. When building stairs, make sure the riser is below 7" & not only have a sturdy handrail in place, but that a person can't lose balance/slip & fall beneath the handrail. I never thought about this until back surgery complications left me with permanent weakness in 1 leg & chronic neuropathy. There are more safety issues I see in the video, but will stop at that.
A car wreck at 26, I'm 52 now, has me in pain that stairs exacerbates extensively. Your so correct. My elderly dad can't keep his balance on them if they are too steep. Think about the what ifs and the inevitable aging in life. You'll save people you love from pain & fear of simple taken for granted things. Great comment. 💙
Kudos to you both for building such a wonderful and beautiful home for your parents. I'm sure the smiles on their faces were a reward more than words could say.
Don't expect to get anything like that if your husband is a psychologist. Chances are that your psychologist husband will be very skilled at finding the culprits for your bad luck...
It's nice also when a couple have enough free time from work to spend on a project like this from scratch to finish with someone else taking care of the kids. If your husband is a psychologist probably he's much better off paying someone else to do it.
So proud of you both! Beautiful, hardworking young couple! I absolutely love your home. Perfect selection of finishes and furnishings. Amazed by your work ethic and skills. Garden and flowers 🫠🤗😁 5 stars
I was watching this video with tears in my eyes sometimes…. BEAUTIFUL and so precise in every way, plus your natural/happy/loving attitude. May GOD bless you ALWAYS. Thank you for sharing such a special thing 🙌🏻
Thank you for speeding up the video throughout, while still covering all the steps and making it fun and entertaining. All diy video makers need to learn from you! 🙂
That’s how my grandparents made their house, back in the 1940’s (the cinder block reminded me of it). Their friends and relatives helped them. They lived there, together in that home, until they went into the nursing home. They have since long passed, but it makes me smile to see you build your home and enjoy it so much! Enjoy the life you will share in your home! ❤😊
Man findet kaum Worte um Euch den Respekt entgegen zu bringen,den Ihr beide verdient.So wie Ihr zusammen gearbeitet habt,so grandios Ihr beide harmoniert.Voller Hingabe,voller Liebe.Hätte ich die Möglichkeit ein Eigenheim zu bekommen,dann werd Ihr diejenigen die es bauen sollten.Bin schwer beeindruckt.❤
Such dedication, skill, love, tolerance, professionalism and above all patients, passion and precision. I would be able to do 1% of that and would have insulated the ceiling. Building your own door and bespoke furniture. Respect.
Wow. Super impressed by massive skills. Plus working together for so long just shows how committed to each other you are. I wish I had even a tenth of those skills. I think everyone should be taught how to build their own homes. My parents built their own house and it made their relationship even stronger. Kudos to you both. Looking forward to your next adventure!
Everyone WAS taught this stuff in generations past. Our school systems are intentionally dumbing people down to make them helpless and reliant on the government. I'll never allow my children to grow up like that though. That's why we homeschool, garden, build, and learn all manner of crafts and talents. I want my children to grow up able to be entirely self-sufficient critical thinkers, not easily fooled and nobody's slave.
Besides the tremendous skills of both of them, what I admire the most is the beautiful relationship they have. They seem like soul mates, those spontaneous moments of love can be seen all over the video, they seem genuine.
Es war eine Freude euch zuzusehen, mit welchem Spass ihr dabei gewesen seid. Ich hoffe ihr geniesst nach der ganzen Zeit noch euer Heim 🏠 zusammen, habt euch lieb ❤und vor allem, bewahrt euch den Humor.
Building your house together is the best experience in the world. I love knowing that my blood and sweat went into every inch of our property. Loved watching you build yours. Very beautiful
Great team effort, projects this big can easily lead to family crisis unless there's such marvelous energy and will to go through the challenges. You even did many things most builders would purchase ready-made to save time and effort. I hope the plot is not prone to get wet as you didn't install any french drains around the foundation. Understandably, some simplifying choices had to be done with such budget, and perhaps that's also on the list to do later on.
Schon sehr beachtenswert, in einer halben Stunde ein ganzes Haus mit allem Drum und Dran zu bauen! Und dann noch dazu alles mitzufilmen! Am meisten hat mich gefreut, daß die Erbauer dabei stets freundlich waren, motiviert, lustig und sympathisch!
Both are extremely talented and skilled, plumbing, electrical, flooring, tilling, carpentry, decore and design and everything else required to build and make a home you guys know it all, wow
I have seldomly been so impressed. You make it look effortless and easy but there is so much craftsmanship and knowledge necessary. I have greatest respect for this achievement. Stunning!! ❤
If you can build your own house, I believe you can achieve anything in life. Housing is probably the most basic need we humans have after food. To have the skill to do everything from masonry to carpentry to plumbing to electrical, that's just incredible. Not many professionals out there who can claim to have such a wide range of skills. Incredible and hats off to the hard work.
it requires a lot of project management and self-educating skills mostly. you have to break huge project into essentially very small bits of small tasks and research each one of them seperatelly. then you start from something and just do it.. takes time and effort but in the end its worth it, unless you have money to buy a house just ready to use..
@@rodrigoub1deve ser isopor ou pvc. Muito leve!! Nao é no braza véi essa construção kkkkk mas ficou um linda casa!! Quem me dera... algo prático e rápido assim. Pq num aguento mais concreto...AFF kkkk
I feel like I just watched you build a Tardis! It's so much bigger on the inside! I thought it would be tiny based on the foundation, what you did was pure magic!
Uma das obras mais linda e projetada com carinho que já vi. Além da obra, amei VOCES com esse espírito jocoso que achava que só o brasileiro tinha. Ficou muito bonita com todo o conforto que um casal precisa. PARABÉNS !!!!!
As a long time construction worker I have to say this was an amazing project to watch 2 people do. Craftsmanship of these trades you completed with I am assuming little experience is mind blowing. Truly amazing!!!
I very much doubt this guy is starting with zero experience. He's doing it right each time. Not one 'oops' and redo... except maybe where the water heater was placed. He's either a tradesman or the world's best DIY'er. And, he's got tools the average guy doesn't have. First time I cut drywall as a teenager, I used a circular saw. Made a mess, but got it done. First time I saw someone score and snap... my jaw hit the ground!
@@Nic7320 if you're a plumber or electrician you already know one of the two most pointy domains needed laying brick is mostly watch and learn level of difficulty interior insulation stairs and woodwork need more head scratching though. t
My grandpa and grandma built their house just like this….my mother and her siblings who were small back then were tiny helpers and she still tells me stories about how fun it was to build everything from ground…that house is still standing strong..with new generation
Idk, a lot of these things are fake. They pretend like they're building it by hand but they only do very small parts on camera and then let professionals or machinery do the real work.
Phenomenal! The range of skills required here is astounding and not easily learned. Whether you did it via TH-cam as you went or years of experience makes no difference, the range and quality is undeniable. Job darned well done!
I so enjoyed watching your house literally built from the ground up. Years ago my husband and I built our Earthship, just the two of us. I know what it takes to build your own house. Ours took 11 years, no mortgage and lots of odd jobs. Good on you two, beautiful job.
This is impressive, amazing. I have one question only, I saw at the beginning a new (for me) way to ground the walls and make the structure, from a static POV how is it better/worse than regular technique? Thanks

This family clearly has super powers to get through a build like this with the details they've incorporated at every level. Blown away by this level of skill and knowledge of building.
Wow! Our company builds homes and I was so impressed watching this video. Such precise measurements. Clearly a lot of research went into every part of it before they started. These two really know what they're doing. Neighbors weren't laughing after they got finished!
I don't know much about styroblock, but they didn't even put external sheathing on. The inside came out gorgeous for it's size, but the outside is ugly af ngl I'd still be laughing if I lived next to that.
@@tigertoxins584 Man, so many things were wrong with this build and wouldn't meet building regulations in many countries. It's the typical job of making it look nice, but there are serrious issues. Like, the insulation for a start. No wall or floor insulation which will make it terrible to heat. There's some insulation in the loft, but it didn't even look correctly installed. No insulation in the walls means it's just solid brick making things like damp a problem if the house isn't constantly being heated. No floor insulation which is essential for things like underfloor heating, otherwise most of the heat will just go into the wrong direction and heat the ground. No lintels above doors or windows, meaning that over time the overhead load would crack and break the window and door frames etc. Also isn't strong enough to survive things like earthquakes, building fires or structural damage. Ceiling joists were left exposed to the elements at the ends as they poked through the building structure, this creates a point of weakness and will rot over time. Underfloor heating was copper piping instead of a polymer, meaning over time as it expands and contracts it can crack the concrete or split the piping. This is the type of place someone knocks up, looks nice but will have nothing but issues for its entire existence.
Totally amazing you made it look so fun... Being a retired contractor I how it's not always fun, but then again I never had a chance to build a home for family especially elderly people who don't always have the resources to do this. You are obviously loving wonderful people and for all the negative stuff we see everywhere everyday it's nice to spend a half hour out of my day to feel good about something. Thank you..
I loved watching this video and how happy and fun you were when making it. It’s now 2024, and only just come across this video but I hope you’re both still living your best life in this great little home you have built. 🙂
@@CanallAbsurdo lack of reinforced concrete columns and ring beams guaranteeing resistance to compression, which is related to the low load-bearing capacity of the walls. No window lintels. So yeah it is created without safety standards.

@@user-sp8eb6iz7f LoL... You serious? It's a saying. It is meant to convey that something is rare, not unique. 1600 in 1 400 000 000 is exactly that I think. IDK what are you even trying to say! Also, it would be 1400 according to Google.
Watched the video from beginning to end in one sitting. Not a dull moment. Such a joy to watch. Love the way you pan the camera across the kitchen table in fast motion at 22:39. Not only do you have every aspect of house-building skills from beginning to end, but you also have the tech-savvy of video recording, editing, and directing. Simply amazing. You deserve all the success. Greetings from San Francisco.
What a beautiful sight siblings doing such great work for parents a very rare thing done today by children I'm proud of you all God's blessings from S A
Pocas veces me he sentido tan impresionado. Lo haces parecer fácil y sin esfuerzo, pero se necesita mucha artesanía y conocimiento. Tengo el mayor respeto por este logro. ¡¡Impresionante!!❤

What is wrong with digging a hole in the ground to live in?
Are you "privileged"? The closer you live like an animal, the more human you are, and you are almost there.
Start digging, and gather bugs for dinner.
Wow You guys work fast! Lol 😂 Just kidding 😊 nice work!
You only have one bedroom with two single beds ? Where are the kids supposed to sleep if you only have one bedroom ?Your dining room is in the living room ? You have kids putting their hands on the wall at the stairs & they will get dirty in no time. The lines on the brick wall outside are showing. Nice build but too small.
@@marshayoung9387 We hebben dit huis gebouwd voor bejaarde ouders ---> we have built this house for an elderly couple.
While the house itself and the process of building it together is incredible, I just want to say that the fact that you got through the whole process joyfully, dancing, laughing, and working passionately is in itself the most impressive accomplishment! Well done!
True love.
They show those parts for the camera. There are of course the normal doubts, tiredness, and frustrations that occur in every project. Not to say they didn't enjoy themselves, that's just human.

@@armorghostvillain3315 Yes even a baby boomer one would not be caught dead doing manual labor outside!!
I consider myself a jack of all trades but This dude is literally a master of all trades! I wonder if people realize the amount of skill it takes to do all of these sufficiently. Cement, carpentry, plumbing, electrical, sheetrock, flooring, etc...really is amazing.
I’m my opinion everyone should be taught this in school.. it should be a standard class for everyone. My pop built our house from the shell of a burnt mobile home and taught me how to run wires and use a breaker box, pour cement, etc so now it’s all common sense to me. I am truly grateful for the skills that I have. It makes it super easy to find a job that I find really easy since I’ve been doing that my whole life
Well , having been involved with building many homes and then finally building my own home, i can say that you dont need to be a master at any of the skills that you mentioned to build a home, you just have to be competent with a few of them, for instance, the metal roof is as easy a job as anything is. and i'm not sure of the building method he is using im assuming its a form of styrocrete, but kind of like legos. i've built homes using SIPS and hollow styroblock that is later filled with steel and then poured and kind of the same methods. and i'm sure he had his learning curve with a few things. The admirable part of the whole thing to me is that he is showing the initiative to actually take part in the quality of his and his families future. from the radiant floor heat, to the high quality filtration for his water he is showing that he is conservative with resources and careful about his an their health, i wish him and his family many good years knowing his family /parents/whomever lives in the home the home that he can tell his kids, "daddy and mommy built this house" oh. and the key to his success may just be the partner who has been willing to learn the same skills as he has. That is a a rarity in todays world.
I'd bet the farm there was lots of TH-cam watching before each new task. And then, during each task. I'm not denigrating their work at all. I just feel sure they didn't have these skills from the start. But it is how we learn. My only disappointment was the lack of an exterior finish.
@centexan As a skilled tradesman myself I think your assumption is incorrect. This guy definitely has the skillset for his build. I've seen other couples on TH-cam where they seen allot of how to videos and it shows in their build quality big time. From using the right materials and the right tools this guy definitely knew what he was doing.
@@chavorucosnkombies In your opinion. I am also a skilled craftsman.

This is a true work of love. Parents are blessed to have such skilled and loving children who can work together and create a home for them.
They’re siblings? And they built it for their parents???
They are blessed, so many people do not have time, skill, access to resources, nor the ability.

House is nice, but elderly may have a problem walking up the stairs, or reaching up as to open cabinets in the kitchen very high under the ceiling. Imagine yourself being old and frail.
@@awiercioch1 I'm into house building since the 40's, there's practically EVERYTHING falling out of safety rules in that house. Guess I would never have a house like this.

BORING
Back in 1978 when I was only in 4th grade. My father, who was an aerospace engineer, fulfilled a life dream of his by moving us to a much less populated area in California, where he purchased a mobile home and a 1.1 acre lot and we lived in the mobile home while he built a house that he designed BY HIMSELF. He did later hire one guy to help him with framing, hanging drywall, and installing the roof tile along with some other misc stuff, and he hired a local cabinet maker to make the cabinets but other than that, he did everything else by himself. We thought he was nuts ... but now I definitely see the appeal in building your own home ... and the fact that you two work so well together is just icing on the cake. Nice video and nice home!
I am interested to know did you follow in your fathers footsteps with your vocation?
@@bwana-ma-coo-bah425 I got my first degree in electronics, but then went into IT professionally as computers were my hobby since I was 12. I was fortunate enough that my parents could afford to get me a computer back then and I went nuts with it. Taught myself how to program and even learned how to make some electronic modifications to the Commodore back in the 80s. Network Engineering and Java development have been my career staples professionally since the 90s. Looks like I forgot to mention that the house my father built was a 2400 square foot house. Fairly large house for one man to build but he loved the process. He completed the house around 1981 I think. He passed away from colon cancer in 1993 unfortunately.
My dad, also an aerospace engineer in Cali, at Hughes, did similar. It was 1971 when they started laying off all the engineers. We moved to Ohio. He built a fireproof cement home by himself and heated it with resistance in the floors. He built it as an arch, the most secure shape in history. He built it so the sunlight would shine right through an opening on the front door on the first day of spring, the solistice.
@@bwana-ma-coo-bah425 Interestingly I thought I had replied to your question, but now I don't see it. My career path started when I was 12 when I got a Commodore 64. Computers always fascinated me and they still do all these years later. I got my first degree in electronics and my second in Computers and Information Systems. I've been a Network Engineer my entire career. I was born for it. ☺I also develop in Java - one of my more recent passions.
I love that your father worked so hard to give your family a home of your own. So many of us out here never had that and still don't. Blessings and love to your papa!
This is what i call a real family and real relationship between two people who love each other!!!

Kudos. Birds build their own houses sing, are happy and brightly colored. Bridget moving to other birds houses are dull they're not colored and they're boring. They do not whistle or sing.
Why let someone take them joy of building your house?
Especially the cordwood home you built. That was the alternative home I studied and absolutely fell in love with it!!!
Are you in North West Arkansas?
Just guessing:-) (Not really)
It is amazing how they accomplished all that in JUST ONE DAY! Impressive. Also, that lady has a nice butt.
I’m amazed by the level of skill, patience, dedication, cooperation, energy and hard work.
Imagine. If everyone had these qualities, housing anywhere wouldn't cost so much. People these days don't have any idea what "sweat equity" is. They also live beyond their means and in general "want" too much. A small house like this or a simple ranch style house is the most cost effective and efficient to build. Every roof pitch or outside corner of a house adds $1000's if not $10000's of cost to a house.
@@Ryan-hw7ow imagine if everyone had these qualities and no job. they can easily build their own home. you cant possibly think you can build all this when you come home after daily 12 hour work days. also, the fridge and stove are a bad idea. there should always be space to allow for future upgrades or if standards change to the sizes.

I don’t know if you know it or not but this unconventional house is amazing . Especially the fact that you worked together from start to finish. My wife and I have been working on this old house we live in for 30 years. The house was built in 61 and we have renovated it all ourselves. Now our daughter has started on a house ( her great grandparents old dog trot) and we are teach/helping her. Our son is next. Just know that you are an inspiration to a lot of people.
Your family is blessed to have someone to teach them how to build a house.
Hi its a ICF," insulate concrete Form "home... They did a great job on it.
Not really unconventional. Most of the homes in my country are built like this, i myself have been apart of building 5 houses like these in the last 2 years.
Nothing solidifies the foundation of a marriage better than a couple who built their own home together, may they have a prosperous rest of their lives together!
that is until she makes babies and hears how much she can make with alimony and child support! enter the divorce attorney and lets see how well this works out for the young man who gave it all to build a house only to lose it to getting divorce raped!
As a budding DIYer, this is so pleasurable to watch. The fact that you are able to turn your hands and skills to every aspect of the build, and the teamwork and smiles throughout is a true testament to your incredible achievement! Loved it :)

No, the outside looks unfinished. Surely the neighbours don't want to look out at this. The work they have done is incredible and they deserve a lot of credit but you see this with a lot of European self builds; once people have it nice they don't care what looks like outside.
@@philwoodall9023 inclined to agree that it looks unfinished. Great work on the inside but the house looks like it needs more. This is the only video I've seen from this channel though so it may be improved now.
@@philwoodall9023is here people, is how you disagree with people on the internet. You state what they did right and what they did wrong. I agree, good work on their part but they are not finished yet.
I would imagine that there's probably some law loophole that eases taxation on real estate if it is unfinished, there's plenty of examples around the world for something like that. I know there was a subsidy in China if you build a two story house, but a lot of people just never finished the second floor, and pocketed the money.
@@philwoodall9023 maybe they want a criminal to think there’s no reason to break in ?😂
Are you that one guy who reports their neighbour for them not trimming their lawn?
Don’t be that guy.
Usually an unfinished or unkept house is a sign of low income rather than laziness or a want to create an “eye sore”. Those who go out of their way to make more needless problems for their neighbours and or demand they halt a construction project, or change something, or do something to their “lawn” or anything petty for that matter, are usually seen as the neighbourhood assholes lol.
If you think the neighbours care about “looking” at the building, that says more about your pettiness as opposed to their laziness, besides, it’s a matter of opinion what “looks” nice. Now if shit needs to meet the standards of “up to code” for “safety” that’s a different story.
this is like the best thing i’ve ever seen. the amount of sheer joy, passion, positivity and love contained in this single video could cure humanities ailments in one go. no single complaint, just love.
Wonderful! I built a tiny cob house in the late 90's, before "tiny houses" became a thing. I had so much fun doing it! It's very empowering to build your own house. I'm a 5' tall woman, and I got super buff hauling rocks, logs, water, and mud! ❤️

You two have built a home. Everyone now can see the love you put into building it. May your days be filled with love and joy in you new home.
Building this for your parents was an act of honor and gratitude. God bless you for honoring your parents. P.S. Along with others I found your building and videography skills to be superb.
That's because they are paid to do this and they practiced a few times before making the video - you people really crack me up that you can't tell the difference between an actual couple and a couple that is paid to do DIY demonstrations.
You don't find it odd that everything is perfectly written, filmed, edited, no bad days? Lol. If they were really being helpful, don't you think they'd include tips on the rough parts they ran into nd how to avoid them? No, that's because they don't want you to think there are any.

Since you built this for elderly parents, I'd like to make a suggestion for others wanting to do the same. When people are young, they never think about the hazards in their home until they either get older or face a life changing illness. When building stairs, make sure the riser is below 7" & not only have a sturdy handrail in place, but that a person can't lose balance/slip & fall beneath the handrail. I never thought about this until back surgery complications left me with permanent weakness in 1 leg & chronic neuropathy. There are more safety issues I see in the video, but will stop at that.
Great tip!
Muy bonito comentario
A car wreck at 26, I'm 52 now, has me in pain that stairs exacerbates extensively. Your so correct. My elderly dad can't keep his balance on them if they are too steep. Think about the what ifs and the inevitable aging in life. You'll save people you love from pain & fear of simple taken for granted things. Great comment. 💙
My first thought: those stairs for elderly people. No way.. 😮😮
Usually, the county/municipality will have building codes to address these issues.
Kudos to you both for building such a wonderful and beautiful home for your parents. I'm sure the smiles on their faces were a reward more than words could say.
It’s nice when you have a spouse who is VERY smart,knowledgeable and a great handy man…good job

Don't expect to get anything like that if your husband is a psychologist.
Chances are that your psychologist husband will be very skilled at finding the culprits for your bad luck...
It's nice also when a couple have enough free time from work to spend on a project like this from scratch to finish with someone else taking care of the kids. If your husband is a psychologist probably he's much better off paying someone else to do it.

Such dedication, skill, love, tolerance, professionalism and above all patients, passion and precision. I would be able to do 1% of that and would have insulated the ceiling. Building your own door and bespoke furniture. Respect.
I was surprised that they didn't insulate the ceiling, too.
Awesome place though.
Maybe they are in a really temperate weather area?
They insulated the upper ceiling.
Pretty impressive how everything was built from scratch-even the front door! Nothing prefab. Fun to watch too! Well done! 👏🏼👏🏼
Primitive is good? Like I said, dig a hole in the ground to live in, like an animal.
@@EarthSurferUSA having a bad day, are you?
I love the RELATIONSHIP energy you two share... NEVER LOSE THAT!!! NEEEEEEEVVVVVVEEEEERRRR!!! Its a once in a life time thing.
These two deserve each other forever.Blessings for the family.
Wow. Super impressed by massive skills. Plus working together for so long just shows how committed to each other you are. I wish I had even a tenth of those skills. I think everyone should be taught how to build their own homes. My parents built their own house and it made their relationship even stronger. Kudos to you both. Looking forward to your next adventure!
How much did it cost? How long did it take you guys.
@@MrCoffeephil 17 grand. Not sure how long it took. Minus Labor.
Everyone WAS taught this stuff in generations past. Our school systems are intentionally dumbing people down to make them helpless and reliant on the government. I'll never allow my children to grow up like that though. That's why we homeschool, garden, build, and learn all manner of crafts and talents. I want my children to grow up able to be entirely self-sufficient critical thinkers, not easily fooled and nobody's slave.
Besides the tremendous skills of both of them, what I admire the most is the beautiful relationship they have. They seem like soul mates, those spontaneous moments of love can be seen all over the video, they seem genuine.
From a person who has built a lot from the ground up, this was a pleasure to watch, especially because of the joyous relationship you have.
Es war eine Freude euch zuzusehen, mit welchem Spass ihr dabei gewesen seid. Ich hoffe ihr geniesst nach der ganzen Zeit noch euer Heim 🏠 zusammen, habt euch lieb ❤und vor allem, bewahrt euch den Humor.
Not only are your construction skills top notch and efficient, but also your videography is fantastic. Well done!
I was going to say the same...
Are you sending your kids to fight in ukraine for a j3w against Christians in russia? Asking for a friend.
Top notch? Uses foam in can to hold bricks down idk if it would pass inspection in usa you have to use mortar
Horrible construction skills actually
@@bigluisjayrogan what’s so horrible about the construction skills?
Building your house together is the best experience in the world. I love knowing that my blood and sweat went into every inch of our property. Loved watching you build yours. Very beautiful
Great team effort, projects this big can easily lead to family crisis unless there's such marvelous energy and will to go through the challenges. You even did many things most builders would purchase ready-made to save time and effort. I hope the plot is not prone to get wet as you didn't install any french drains around the foundation. Understandably, some simplifying choices had to be done with such budget, and perhaps that's also on the list to do later on.
Wielki SZACUNEK dla WAS.
Jesteście wspaniałym duetem.
Życzę Wam zdrowia i szczęścia w nowym domu, bo umiejętności i wiedzę, już posiadacie.
Jak to jest postawione bez podstawowych elementów tj. Nadproża, belki, rdzenie czy wieniec więc o jakiej wiedzy czy umiejętnościach tu mowa.
Schon sehr beachtenswert, in einer halben Stunde ein ganzes Haus mit allem Drum und Dran zu bauen! Und dann noch dazu alles mitzufilmen! Am meisten hat mich gefreut, daß die Erbauer dabei stets freundlich waren, motiviert, lustig und sympathisch!
Both are extremely talented and skilled, plumbing, electrical, flooring, tilling, carpentry, decore and design and everything else required to build and make a home you guys know it all, wow
And they are happy with a small, normal house! Amazing!!!
Not gonna lie. I thought of a certain 'talented' bald man in your first half.
I have seldomly been so impressed. You make it look effortless and easy but there is so much craftsmanship and knowledge necessary. I have greatest respect for this achievement. Stunning!! ❤
If you can build your own house, I believe you can achieve anything in life. Housing is probably the most basic need we humans have after food. To have the skill to do everything from masonry to carpentry to plumbing to electrical, that's just incredible. Not many professionals out there who can claim to have such a wide range of skills. Incredible and hats off to the hard work.
it requires a lot of project management and self-educating skills mostly.
you have to break huge project into essentially very small bits of small tasks and research each one of them seperatelly.
then you start from something and just do it..
takes time and effort but in the end its worth it,
unless you have money to buy a house just ready to use..
Absolutely awesome video. You guys crushed it & now at 71 I’d love to have a precious small home next to you♥️

I feel like I just watched you build a Tardis! It's so much bigger on the inside! I thought it would be tiny based on the foundation, what you did was pure magic!
For this being a "small" house y'all did an amazing job of utilizing the space to make it seem so much larger! ❤

As a long time construction worker I have to say this was an amazing project to watch 2 people do. Craftsmanship of these trades you completed with I am assuming little experience is mind blowing. Truly amazing!!!
I very much doubt this guy is starting with zero experience. He's doing it right each time. Not one 'oops' and redo... except maybe where the water heater was placed. He's either a tradesman or the world's best DIY'er. And, he's got tools the average guy doesn't have.
First time I cut drywall as a teenager, I used a circular saw. Made a mess, but got it done. First time I saw someone score and snap... my jaw hit the ground!
@@Nic7320 if you're a plumber or electrician you already know one of the two most pointy domains needed laying brick is mostly watch and learn level of difficulty interior insulation stairs and woodwork need more head scratching though. t
It was mostly 2 people but there were more, still a great job but I wish they would have smooth out mortar on the outside
@@Nic7320 i cut drywall with utility knife.
you mean 2 crews 😅
My grandpa and grandma built their house just like this….my mother and her siblings who were small back then were tiny helpers and she still tells me stories about how fun it was to build everything from ground…that house is still standing strong..with new generation
Idk, a lot of these things are fake. They pretend like they're building it by hand but they only do very small parts on camera and then let professionals or machinery do the real work.
Probably more, all wood and natural products.
@@chuckdeuces911 they said they had a budget.
Zawsze imponują mi ciężko pracujący ludzie. Świetna robota i fajny domek😊
Phenomenal! The range of skills required here is astounding and not easily learned. Whether you did it via TH-cam as you went or years of experience makes no difference, the range and quality is undeniable. Job darned well done!
So nice to see two Happy husband and wife working hard together helping each other. You made my day. Thank you.
I so enjoyed watching your house literally built from the ground up. Years ago my husband and I built our Earthship, just the two of us. I know what it takes to build your own house. Ours took 11 years, no mortgage and lots of odd jobs. Good on you two, beautiful job.
This is impressive, amazing. I have one question only, I saw at the beginning a new (for me) way to ground the walls and make the structure, from a static POV how is it better/worse than regular technique?
Thanks
Wielkość ludzi poznaje się po tym, czego dokonali w życiu, jestem pod wrażeniem 🤗 Wszystkiego najlepszego w nowym domu, jesteście niesamowici, powodzonka 👍
Indeed, that is but one measure of “greatness”. What makes a person great is a subjective determination, only.

Wow! Our company builds homes and I was so impressed watching this video. Such precise measurements. Clearly a lot of research went into every part of it before they started. These two really know what they're doing. Neighbors weren't laughing after they got finished!
Yeah they were crying because they have to look at that ugly thing.
I don't know much about styroblock, but they didn't even put external sheathing on. The inside came out gorgeous for it's size, but the outside is ugly af ngl I'd still be laughing if I lived next to that.
So OK, its clearly not finished yet 🙄
@@tigertoxins584
Man, so many things were wrong with this build and wouldn't meet building regulations in many countries. It's the typical job of making it look nice, but there are serrious issues.
Like, the insulation for a start. No wall or floor insulation which will make it terrible to heat. There's some insulation in the loft, but it didn't even look correctly installed. No insulation in the walls means it's just solid brick making things like damp a problem if the house isn't constantly being heated. No floor insulation which is essential for things like underfloor heating, otherwise most of the heat will just go into the wrong direction and heat the ground.
No lintels above doors or windows, meaning that over time the overhead load would crack and break the window and door frames etc. Also isn't strong enough to survive things like earthquakes, building fires or structural damage.
Ceiling joists were left exposed to the elements at the ends as they poked through the building structure, this creates a point of weakness and will rot over time.
Underfloor heating was copper piping instead of a polymer, meaning over time as it expands and contracts it can crack the concrete or split the piping.
This is the type of place someone knocks up, looks nice but will have nothing but issues for its entire existence.
precise? lmao its called a measuring tape its not like hes building a pyramid
Amazing job and amazing couple. Working together like that is not always easy, let alone fun.
Totally amazing you made it look so fun... Being a retired contractor I how it's not always fun, but then again I never had a chance to build a home for family especially elderly people who don't always have the resources to do this. You are obviously loving wonderful people and for all the negative stuff we see everywhere everyday it's nice to spend a half hour out of my day to feel good about something. Thank you..
I loved watching this video and how happy and fun you were when making it.
It’s now 2024, and only just come across this video but I hope you’re both still living your best life in this great little home you have built. 🙂
Hardwood floors and heating floors.. and a complete house for 17,000$? That's crazy!! You two are amazing! Congrats on the project
a completely dangerous structure for 17k sure yeah :)
What makes you think it's hardwood?
@@tylerblouin3513 why is it dangerous?
@@CanallAbsurdo the super super shallow founds.
@@CanallAbsurdo lack of reinforced concrete columns and ring beams guaranteeing resistance to compression, which is related to the low load-bearing capacity of the walls. No window lintels. So yeah it is created without safety standards.
I almost felt so emotional. This couple is so amazing. ❤
If even half the world worked together like this our world would be transformed into something amazing! Great job!
Sorry but religious people tend to think their better and then their the cults omg let me stop their
