- In this video we frame the roof for this small affordable house. The roof pitch is 4/12 I wanted to keep it as low as I could not to block my neighbors view. The rafters in the front are 2 by 12s that part of the house will be vaulted. Rest of the house will have flat ceilings. I also show the price of trusses I almost bought from Home Depot for this build.
Going out to vacumize the house too much stuff on the floor, driving my brain crazy. I'll answer comments once I get back.
Happy vacuuming! ;)
Migraine Craftsman I have few question for you. How can we chat privately
Hi how much costs

Gotta say I'm impressed with your dedication to VALUE for the money people spend on your homes. 40+ years in the air conditioning business few have as much appreciation as I for ductless mini-splits. As well as going overboard on insulation. Comfort as well as savings are both improved. Your framing crew is great. Taking the time to aquare, level and plumb, ESPECIALLY working with today's lumber can't be overstated. I much prefer pier and beam rather than slab foundations but ONLY because of where I live and the soil conditions. If I lived in an area with stable soil slabs would be a no brainer. The four on twelve pitch many harangue you about is more than enough in low or no snowfall areas. Love your work man. I only did residential A/C for about ten years, then moved on to commercial. And went pretty much into service rather than installation. BUT!! If the job is put in right the savings in utility bills and repair are beyond belief. Sloppy work costs BIG money. Sadly that cost falls on the buyer, not the builder, so your level of attenton to detail is appreciated. Videos are great. Keep em up.
Thank you, I talked to many inspectors of what is best for this area so I am following their advice on how to put things together here in this climate.
^^ what he said
Great craftsmanship on your builds. Keep building quality for an affordable price and you will have much success! Perfect size home for a retirement couple and all on the same level too.
Yeah I’m gonna install ductless mini splits on my little apartment as well I can fabricate duct from sheet metal.
MC, I just want to let you know that I admire you’re integrity.
The world we live in today lack men with integrity, so it’s a absolute breath of fresh air when I come in contact with one. God bless you.
Thank you for the kind words I appreciate them.
Indeed
It will be interesting to see the total cost of material vs labor when you finish this build if you can share
I will
@@MigraineCraftsman still not done?
It is so good that you framed your roof so your neighbor would still have decent views, such consideration. I also love a smaller size home.
The Bob Ross of building
lol I don't have his hair I would have to wear a mop on my head.
Migraine Craftsman might as well🤷♂️😂
I just subscribed to your channel. Is there a need to insulate the slab in your climate? I like your practicality.
In my climate no,we barelly get snow and out weather is very mild. If you build in a colder climate then you will have to insualte all depending on your frost line.
Very nice view and great consideration of the neighbors....A true American you are...thanks
years ago, I lived in a Condo that was about 770 sq ft, 2 bedrooms with 1 bath , nice size living room, and it was very livable , it was 1 story and had 3 sides, so that gave me windows on 3 sides so lots of light
Beautiful baby 👶 lol right now my baby is my Iphone11 lol. I love this iphone 11 the phone that keep giving I like my measuring tape on it freakin right on spot. I take measurements with my iPhone 11.
What's soft wear you used to design the house. I want to learn how to design the house.
Home designer by chief architect
Just redid a roof with plywood instead of OSD previous owners put three-quarter inch OSD on a flat roof of all things did a terrible job putting shingles up had to replace the whole roof peeling off the OSD when it gets wet it comes out like mush didn't even look like bored anymore
Wow. Had no idea home Depot did engineered trusses. So many gems hidden in your videos. So glad I found your channel. Thanks man.
Pleasure to be of assistance :)
Their price is also not bad at all, to the point that I can tell you on the next build I will use home depot for their trusses.
@@MigraineCraftsman definitely will be looking into this.
Will you be running the ductless split system inside the walls between the drywall and sheathing or will you be putting the lines on the outside of the siding? I’m curious cause you have the opportunity to run it inside now but most people don’t.
Inside all in the "attic" nothing in the walls, stay tuned I'll show all that.
I should buy this house...just the right size, nice view, nice neighborhood, new construction, affordable price (I hope). Who knows, I might get some ease on those migraines in this house!
The house might be already sold if the contract gets signed next week.
@@MigraineCraftsman Congrats! I am happy for you and the buyer.
You are such a considerate person! Love how the house is coming along. 😊🤗❤️
I'll take it!
Love your videos!!!!!!!! Extremely informative!
Looking great! Gives me hope we can build our retirement home ourselves.
Sure you can, keep it simple and you can have a nice house on a budget.
If this young man could multiply in 50 million, imagine how the USA will be wealthiest and exemplary to the rest of the world.
Are you still building houses . All the videos I see posted are two years old I’m curious of prices for the inflated materials. Love all your videos
Love how it’s coming a long!!
I like it a very simple house, no extra tech to push the budget over
Thank you for the videos, keep up the awesome work you're doing. I like how you show the architectural sketch of the bedroom/bathroom when you walk into that area, it makes the visualization easier for people like me who can't see what the actual bedroom/bathroom looks like until it's complete.
Thank you for watching, I'm still learning this youtube thing so if you want to see something feel free to ask.
Hundred thousand? Wow! I would have guessed 25-30.
What a great neighbor for you to be concerned about the neighbors view
Mr migraine your level of attention is truly amazing, thank You very much!
Thx Mark
What software are you using plz I want to do my own house to when I get my prosthetic foot 🦶 back lol I don’t know I alway find it funny to say I’m getting my foot back lmfao we can laugh it’s okay 👌. Nice job again. I build underground swimming pool 🏊 maybe we can team up if you do houses:

Are you close to Alabama? I would like to talk about building on our families land... we have just come home from Papua New Guinea and need affordable housing.
In Ga your next door neighbor
I’m dreaming about building my house . But have no idea cost wise . Can you help me plz?
I show most of the costs, take a look through my channel.
Do you have the plans I can copy here in TX?
Moving right along, excited that you are using mini splits, I love those things.
First time using it, I am curious how it turns out.
What state are you in? Are you able to do builds in North Carolina?
NC and GA
I always enjoy your video's.
Thank you Sir
When Electrician wire the homes, is there an electrical layout plan for outlets & light switches for the entire home ?
I can make one, but I prefer to just walk with him in the house and tell him what I want where. He marks it on the studs and that is all that is to it. I worked like that with multiple electricians and that way it seems to work out the best, no mistakes.
@@MigraineCraftsman Your very inspirational, I just recently discovered the channel. What would you suggest in size wise, when seeking to build 3bd 2bth on 8600sqft property or reconsider setup ? Thank you considerably !
@@mysterymachineone I like small homes but a 1200 square foot will do nicely as a 3 and 2
While you have the chance, you should prewire this house with Cat6 network cabling and terminate into a central location. I think most people would extremely appreciate it.
Do you have a previous vid about how you plan the plumbing out and why you put plumbing where you do? If not can you please do a vid in the future on the plumbing 😊 thank you
Take a look here th-cam.com/video/Wm4hBoQ4s9Q/w-d-xo.html
Love the way you do. We want you to build our house similar like that but little bigger (around more than 900 sf). Can we have your contact and come to see you in July or Sep? We will have trip from Georgia to Colorado then we will see you then. Thanks a lot. The Turner
At some point when my channel gets bigger I'll do meet and greets, but for now I'm just busy building and working side jobs.
@@MigraineCraftsman we are not hurry on building new house. We can wait for you. When you think you can have time for us. I also send email to you. Pls answer my email. Appreciate it. Thanks a lot. God bless you.
Oooh! The house is coming together rather nicely! Yay 🤗👍🏼💕
Thx /cheers
We admire your videos. Do you recommend joist hangers for roof trusses? Also can you recommend cost effective cordless nail gun?
I like screws for my trusses or rafters, once you put those suckers in, you gotta solid roof. As for a nail gun (corded) there is many good ones, but the best cost effective way to get one is from a pawn shop and can scoop them up for less then $50 bucks. Cordless you dont see too many in the pawn shops so go with paslode they are most common and they work fine.
Thank you
Possible to build a house this size with 2 dedicated people?
Absolutely, seen it done before.
I'm in NY, do you offer consultations?!!
I offer a bunch of info here on my channel feel free to ask if you have building questions.
@@MigraineCraftsman awesome thank you! I'm in the planning/saving phase. Though I don't have a floor plan ready for action when by bank account is haha. Is there a way I could get your opinion on my layout? @sweeetxsolace on IG if its easier to converse that way. Thanks for the great content & inspiring hope that I can accomplish this on my own!💖
I heard you say truss would cost $1500, have you considered to build truss using your workers?
Nice roof...
I alwys like your chanel
Verry inspirative...
Thx margine craftsmn...
Beautiful place you have there.
Thank you for this video series!
What home builder/design software do you use and do you recommend any others (software)?
Thank you 👍
Is it just me or does the house sit in down in a pit. looks like the grade around the house is a bit higher than the concrete slab.
Grading will be done eventually waiting for a friend to help me out with it.
Are you planning to install a small retaining wall at the side of the house where the hillside is?
100,000 USD/GBD in my country which is Jamaica 🇯🇲 exchange would be $14,700,000 JMD 👀😅 great build tho 👏👏 awesome
Love ur videos,,one question 1200 today build instead of treustles ,that's cheap!!! Dammm how in the hell they are making money,,,but I believe you I'm just like dammm I wish I had ur people in Houston tx,,,good job sir and may god bless you more!!!
Does the 100,000.00 include employee pay and your profit, or just the land and house ?
I'm going to be living in the unit when I retire in a year full time. The second bedroom will serve also as an office space. A stack washer would work for me. I'm new to all of this.
So do you design and build houses to sell?
Yes Sir
I just subscribed, i think your a very special person to do what you do. I have seen a lot of your videos and you do such an amazing job.
There,are always people that think they know it all and have,all the answers.
I would love to pick your brain , i have questions. I'm trying to build a small place to8
Im thinking about getting a 1200 sq ft pole barn. I might be getting some land really cheap ,3 acres, and i want to move out of my parents and stop renting from my bro. Living with him is cool, but i want my own place. Its not minimalist like these.
Nice job on your home project.
great carpenter crew, clean cuts. labor only @ $7.50 per foot, my guess...we made that in the 80's
I wish I knew someone like you to build my family a home. We are in a temporary situation and getting pretty anxious about the future. My daughter has chronic pain, and my grandson has a congenital heart defect. Right now we are basically living off of my income due to health situation. I have excellent credit, which would help but I can't afford a big monthly rent/mortgage. Unfortunately we live in MA, I would love to find a honest human being as yourself to help people instead of creating a huge debt for them.
Thank you so much for your honesty and being a decent human being!
5 guys working for $1200 doesnt leave alot of room for them to profit.
They do ok, I take care of my peoples :)
that was just lumber price
I’ve looked everywhere. How much is the total cost of this house? I’m looking to move in a bit and debating on just building.
I'll talk about how much it cost to build once it is finished, still work in progress.
Where is this beautiful place?
Georgia
Coming along nice!
Migraine, is it possible to have buy plans for some of the homes you build?
They will be available, I am working on it
@@MigraineCraftsman Sounds good bud... Something to think about.... Building a Home with the shape of a Hexagon or Octagon... People that want a house, that live in a area with strong Winds...
would be great if you create a plan for a home...
Sir hi this is Howie i need help with my blue prints, relocating from nj to tex. same prints , help.
i would like to get started. do you have a program, or coaching, for the beginner?
Just my youtube channel for now.
My dream housing Senhor, i wish to have friends to build a housing like that. Thank you nice video
I see it and I want to do it.
What website do you use to make your floor plan and the house plan?
I use software called home designer by chief architect (very old version 6.0)
@migrainecraftsman where do you buy those bathroom inserts?
I wish there were builder like you in my state. I would love to own a little house like this one.
I love seeing stick built roofs ....seldom seen these days. I have built houses with 4/12 to 12/12 pitch 4/12 is plenty adequate especially in the south ...higher pitched roof for style or in high snow load areas are more in order.
4/12 is easy to put together and easy on the wallet as well, hence budget build.
How is the market interest with thigh Covid-19 going on ?
Roughly how much do you think it costed you to build this house just materials
😳 100k where i live you can get 2000sqft for 100k
This is wonderful. I love it. I hope to someday do what you do, in a different area, of course.
How much would it cost to just get it under roof for a house this size if you done it by your self
@7:40 in the video, I'm wondering what I'm missing. Because half of the roof rafters seem to be sitting on the top plate (the part with the open ceilings. And then the other half seem to be sitting on top of some 2x10s or 2x8s (the portion with regular height ceilings and a crawl space above) yet the roof rafters are all in alignment. Isn't the siding on the portion with the extra 2x8 going to go up an exra 8-10" before it meets roofline vs the other half of the roof? Also how do the rafters tie into the ridgebeam? i didn't see any straps or anything just saw the guys with the passloads which I know don't shoot a 16d nail.
The vaulted rafters sit on the double top plate, they are cut at an angle and are nailed in place at the ridge beam and nailed at the top plate. (later screwed in with truss screws) Same goes for the flat ceiling area what you see is another way to bring all lumber (different dimensions) into one continous run. 40 years of experience from the main framing guy he does magic sometimes. You also can see blocking between all rafters, I absolutelly love that, not all framers do that, he does.
@@MigraineCraftsman Thank you
Looking good.
Would flat roofs/shed roofs save a lot of $$??
I would stay away from flat roofs too much to worry about and those have to be done flawless to make sure they work right. Shed roof is very cost effective, if you have a narrow structure you can just run one 2 by 12 the length of your house. $20 to 30$ each, thats a pretty fair price.
Here are the links: www.plansourceinc.com/J2030d.htm and www.etsy.com/listing/609537395/small-house-design-55-elton-5974-m2-or?gpla=1&gao=1&
The first one has a washer dryer and water heater the second I am not seeing it. What are you looking (purpose) vacation spot, full time living?
I always heard the steeper the pitch, the longer the shingle life. Might not be true, I dunno. Mine's about a 4 and I got 26 years out of that roof.
It all depends on the area, steeper roofs shed rain and snow better but thay are more expensive. As the real estate agents say location, location, location :)
Great video. I like that you give the cost
Theme of the channel, I'll list the total build price once this is done.
"I like to go overboard with insulation" Builds 2x4 outer walls. :-/
Robert Barth 2x4 exterior wall insulation gives an R-15. And a 2x6 gives an R-21. Only problem is your studs are now twice as expensive, which equals less profit, not worth it in my opinion.
Robert, 2 by 4 walls can take R11 - R13 - R15 I will be using R15 with R38 roof and triple pane windows and a mini split system, so the house will be efficient even with 2 by 4 walls. Watch the following episodes and you can see how all that will be done.
@@ikikuraz On this tiny house, the difference in cost would be about $300. Seems worth it to increase wall insulation by 50%.
@@RobertBarth1 As a tiny house, and in a temperate climate, the added benefit is negligible.
@@RobertBarth1 Robert $300 would buy you 50, 2 by 6s , you would need a couple more to build the house :) your doors would be different and more expensive as well (2by6 wall-jambs) Window extension jambs, more nails etc etc. All these things add up and for my climate it's just not worth it and it would definitelly cost more then $300, in a long run.
The real question would be how much monthy savings on your electrical bill would you get from your investment into 2by6 walls in my climate?
Need more overhang. 2 ft is best.
Thank you for all that you do bud!!
Can’t wait to see it finished. How many weeks have you been working on it so far?
What you see in the vid is a bit over 1 week
How much cost you everything
God forbid my life circumstances ever change, I'm packing up & reaching out & getting one of your homes!! We have a 2900 q. ft. monstrosity, we love it but, it's a lot to maintain & it DOES NOT come with the views that your houses come with!! Hoping all is well Bud, Dirty Jersey out!!
I can tell you your real estate taxes would be a lot cheaper in GA
@@MigraineCraftsman OH I know!! Mine are currently $11,200K a year!!
what are ceiling rafters spaced at?
Where do you construct does houses?
Where's this located??
Try doses of magnesium for migraines! Good luck. Love your houses.
I did, no luck.
@@MigraineCraftsman have you tried psilocybin?

Have you tried cbd fir the migraines

Well I've binge-watched the other builds. Now I have to patient. Sigh. Don't wanna wait. 😉

This coming Friday I'll have some more cost reveals episode
@@MigraineCraftsman whoo-hoo!
Estimate cost 400 square apartment
Thank you so much
Hey if you don't mind me asking, how much was land by itself for this house?? I know you said last time that it was on about a 1/4 acre. Also what state is this in?? I'm asking because this design & price point and everything you've got here is EXACTLY what I want to build. 1/2-1/4 acre, 2 bed/2 bath, few high ceilings and I want to do most of the work myself to save. Thanks, LOVE IT!
Thanks again! 👍😁
Oh man if I could build this for $1200 that’s the first months rent 😝 I’d be laughing!!
How much something this size cost im thinking of building a 2 bed 1 bath on my land but have no idea price range?
I'm almost done and I'll show the total price of the build so stick around.
@@MigraineCraftsman awesome can't wait thanks 👍
