I’m building my dream home and homestead and developing 18 acres from scratch with barely any experience! I’m learing new trades and skills like framing, plumbing, electrical, excavating and more!!!
This week we’re moving! Moving our camper trailer to our home! This is such a huge and exciting feat being able to use all the utilities I’ve brought over the last few years!

There were A LOT of projects this week! Which one was your favourite?!
Your plumming installation at your new house for sure ... you're amazing... There is nothing you can not do ... now put your roof on asap before the snow comes in ...lol... ;-)
Watching you operating the backhoe was very impressive to see how good you were at it Biata, great job and keep up the good work.
Trailer move
The trailer demo ...lol 😅😂
Definitely the attention to detail marking all the floor pieces so you can reassemble them.
Quick tip for the plumbing, cut your poly pipe with your mitre/chop saw(Im from the UK so not sure what you call it) as it'll cut really clean square ends making the glued up ends much easier to do.
Biata this has to be my favorite video.
I kept laughing so hard. When you were working on your trailers septic all I could think of was a statement Randy Quaid said standing in front of his brothers house emptying his septic tank in a street gutter.
You would be the first person I would hire because you want it done right.
Great video, I can’t stop laughing.
See you next Sunday.
Haha oh gosh it was quite fun!
Thanks so much for watching!
@@SimpleLivingwithBiata
Did you ever see the Christmas movie with Randy Quaid and Chevy Chase?
dear Biata, you are truly a resourceful woman, but please don't ever go down into a well without someone on the ground to rescue you. a great many people suffocated that way
Enclosed spaces are one of the deadliest unknown hazards. Was about to write this comment when I saw yours.
Agreed! I was in the underground sewer business for 30 years, I went down a gate well ( water main valve vault) and before I got to the bottom (8feet) it felt like someone was standing on my chest, took my breath away so I went back up quickly ( the fumes from the tar tape around the pipe was brutal, once we aired it out it was fine!
Thank you guys so much for this! I truly had no clue!
@@markholmes1346 I'm a volunteer medic and firefighter with hazmat rescue training. Let's just say that that particular moment gave me flashbacks and leave it at that.
Sometimes your don’t have any one to help you out
Omg I could stop laughing when you were unhooking the poop pipe 😂 and then your daughter saying it hurts my nose, hilarious! Will be so nice to finally be at your property!
Bahaha it was so funny. So nasty 😂. Thank you!!!
Kitty looks so big but I know she is just FLUFFLY!!!! Too cute
She’s a bit overweight but is mainly fluff haha :)
Now when you're having a hard time and super frustrated with the home build you can snuggle the kitty! That will make all of the difference. Good work!
One step at a time! Now you are fully on your property! This journey has taught you many things! Maybe a night out with your hubby to celebrate!
You were very smart to mark all of your flooring when you took it up. When the flooring in my bedroom was pulled up after the house fire. None of it was marked and now it is a pain putting it back in. We were on a deadline and had lots of help. I can't get anymore flooring as it was extra from a special order for a new house. I got it for just hauling it away. Solid teak flooring is very heavy so it comes in small pieces.
Wow! That seems like a lot of work! Sorry about the house fire :(
You are phenomenal!!! I don’t know why you don’t have 200 thousand subscribers.
Bear hugging the fridge was impressive. Building a home really teaches you to move stuff. And take stuff apart 😆
Haha it’s so true. I seem to be always taking things apart lol
@@SimpleLivingwithBiatahappens to everyone. Makes it easier if you have a helper to blame and yell at for your mistake lol. Eventually you start thinking about how to take it apart as your building it
Note; use only "Torque" screws and you won't have all the stripping problem.
Someone already mentioned it, but for clarity: Wells and other unventilated enclosed spaces can be deadly. You should never enter such a space without having help nearby.
Especially with refuse drainage. The decay processes can literally consume all the oxygen inside the tank, create Carbon Monoxide and so on. Air will also sometimes be layered in such spaces in a way that while you were fine one minute by moving your head just a few centimeters you're now inhaling CO instead of oxygen and you're unconscious in seconds.

Thank you for this! I had no clue!
You blow my mind. No other woman on TH-cam can do what you do!!!! I am praying for you !!! I am praying that your subscriber numbers will increase dramatically!!! So happy for you and your family. Hopefully, this move will decrease the stress levels for every member of the family!!!
Hod Bless You and God Bless Your Family-including your Mom and Step Dad !!!
Thank you!
A good thing to do with the trailer is to spread out a tarp first an park the trailer on it. Keeps all the moisture from coming up into the trailer and rusting things. 😊
Great idea! We also have a black plastic bottom to the trailer to keep moisture out and to protect everything! And helps with heat!
I’m sure you be saving by living on your building site, you did a awesome the week with all your projects 👍
I agree! Saving on time and gas money!
You just never give up do you! What a workaholic! Terrific energy and a willingness to do whatever is necessary to get the job done - huge credit to you Biata. And such a teaser too, right at the end of the video, whatever had gone wrong now? Tune in for next week's exciting instalment to find out!
Thank you so much! I appreciate it. Can’t wait to share next week 🥰
There's only 3 things you gotta know to be a plumber.
1. Shit flows down hill.
2. Double time on nights, weekends and holidays.
3. Don't suck your thumb.
Being on site will be really helpful. I gotta find a version of you here.
You're great Biata
Thank you so much!
@@SimpleLivingwithBiata you're welcome beautiful :)
Good day Biata Congrats on your move awesome day for you guys for sure. now you have things set up your home build continues. hope you have a great week at it. take care
Thank you so much! Happy to live here :)
Wow! It's going to make a huge difference to you living on site. I love the way you click you fingers and things happen, that's real cool. I struggle to believe the bit where you said you're really busy now but some time in the future you may be less busy. Come on Biata, we all know you are always going to be busy because you are such a hard working girl. A hard working girl who is achieving so much. As always, thank you so much for the inspiration you give us. Take very good care.😊👍😍
Haha thank you so much! It’s so true, I am pretty busy 😂
You need to leave your black tank closed until it is full, then dump it. It will help with your solids flowing out and into the septic tank.
Well nice job moving the trailer and resettling it up i bet it’s very nice waking up and looking out on your property 👍😎🇺🇸 NY
Привет,Беата!.Тебе стоит заиметь противогаз.Случаи с канализацией ещё повторятся не один раз.Противогаз спасёт от ужасного запаха)))).😉
Proud of you, Biata :) Watched this video from start to finish ;-)
Thanks so much Alhan ❤️
Young lady you are one heck of a hard worker. Great job.
Amazing how agile you now are on all the power tools 😊
Thank you so much! So thankful I’ve been able to learn!
Nice job! You basically did all this by yourself which is not trivial. I was a bit nervous about you going down into that pump chamber by yourself though. Many people have lost their lives because there was not a breathable atmosphere in the bottom of the tank. Certainly as it used for real poop it will fill up with methane so you def want to ventilate it before going inside in the future.
When you got out of the stinky hole and the pump was fully connected I was glad to see that a grey colored threaded union was installed on the pipe leading to the pump. I was afraid you hard glued all that pipe together and had no way to disconnect the pump from the piping if your had a problem or the pump died.You are getting there!
Yes happy to have that thread! I didn’t show installing that part I guess haha. Thank you!
Years ago I had to replumb my entire house from the water meter right down to the septic tank. It gave me a whole new appreciation for plumbers and septic installers!
Wow! It sure is a lot of work!
The sewer gas can kill you short order.First thing is to always check power to circuit, then see if float is free, fish around it with shovel, then next is switch or the wiring.Which is best on post by tank in its own powerboat
Great video! It's been great watching your skull level gro since you built the deck on your trailer.
Well done Biata!
Thank you so much! Funny that it took me a few days to build the deck the first time. This time it was less than a day :)
@@SimpleLivingwithBiata btw I really can spell, don't know why there were so many typos in that msg! Lol
Lol biata your takedown of the sewage pupe was hilarious 😂 ❤❤
Haha thank you 😂
Biata, you are such an inspiration, I love your energy.
Thank you so much!
Your doing great. Septic systems are for specific professionals. They're earn their money doing the dirty work. You're a brave lady for tackling that job.
Haha thank you! It was definitely gross and only ground water was in there lol
A couple of 5 gallon pails of water might flush the lines before removal..
You are incredible love your videos so it’s inspiring
Thank you so much!
Hi Biata...you look so awesome in any situation....blessing to you and stay strong...💝❤🤗🙏🏻
I am so happy you are living on your land now Biata. I hate when you get so down and upset, makes me want to cry for you. What ever it is I know you will have a big smile for us next week....hugsss
Thanks so much! It’s hard but important to feel the emotions 😊
@@SimpleLivingwithBiata I so agree with that. Have a good week.
Hi you will save a lot of time not travelling, but lock the door of the trailer so that you don’t just keep nipping in 😊 all the best 👍🐝🌞
Did you notice a lot of moisture on the windows of your trailer during the winter? Did you use a wood stove? Totally relate to it being a huge sacrifice building a home and living in a trailer. We are in the same process!
Yes! Lots of moisture! We actually combat it by having a dehumidifier run 24/7. It makes a huge difference in taking the chill out of the air
@@SimpleLivingwithBiatayes ... we've done that too... but we are more up in Northern Ontario so maybe there's more moisture here! We are also off grid so it's sometimes a challenge to keep it on 24/7... so makes sense lol Also did you notice your pipes freezing for the pipes that are outside for the septic? Not sure if I missed you explaining that part. Thanks for sharing your journey! You're doing amazing!🙂
now, moving right along. You have it under control
A HUGE congratulations from me, on getting to live on your property. Even small moves take lots of work. I absolutely LOVE how you marked every bit of the floor you took out. It makes it SO much easier to put it back together again.
Last week, and friend and I took down a ceiling, numbering all the boards. Then we put in new electric wires and reinstalled the ceiling. We had 53 ceiling boards, but because they were numbered, it took no time to put them back up.
Plumbing is a shitty business..... You ROCK. Hope, your pets have gotten used to living on new grounds.... I am sure, you and your family have. 👍👍👍
I am not your father, but if I were, I would be proud of you. Sure Craig is as well. Have a nice week.
Thank you so much for all of this! That’s awesome that you numbered them too! Putting the flooring back in was so easy! Thanks so much :)
You were living in that trailer for two years. If you kept the fresh water tank full all the time, there could have been sediments building up in the bottom. Those sediments got stirred up with the move.
WRT water in the septic tank, on flat land with an empty septic tank, the tank could be forced up during a rain storm.
Thank you so much! Agreed with the sediment! Must’ve just settled back down!
Biata you come along way and the way you put that deck together is truly a good peice of work, and it's always such a pleasure to watch how you tackle all the problems with a beautiful smile. Thanks for sharing your video. Biata !! Fantastic 🌹🤗
How sweet how for you guys that’s awesome your closer to being in your house
Another great content video, you are definitely a goer, its crazy you have only 32K subs.
Thank you so much! And you’re awesome! So thankful for the 32k subscribers! But I agree haha 😂🥰
My favorite project was setting up the sewer system at your new home site. You are so inspiring and I just love your content. Thanks for sharing Biata!
Thank you! It was pretty cool!
Very exciting!! So many small, big things to do!!
Thank you so much!
WOW! You are so AMAZING! Moved RV. Installed deck/stairs. Hooked up RV drain line and water. Way to go! Looks so good. Thanks for sharing
Hi Biata! How amazing to be able to live full time on your land, it must feel so good to finally be there! Happy that the move went smoothly. See you next week, take care, Naomi x
Thank you so much! I appreciate it!
Yay!!!!! Home is finally HOME!!!!
HOME IS HOMMME!!!!
You are a very competent person I am quite impressed.
Biata, you sure have the patience of a saint, to go through all of this to end up with that beautiful house, your dream. Hang in there and looking forward to next week and beyond.😊
Thank you so much! So blessed to have such a beautiful structure of a home 🥰
My favorite was you doing the plumbing in that tank. Again you are kicking a$$! Pat w
Thank you so much! It was so cool to work on once I got over the smell lol
Keep your head up Rockstar, you got this! See you next week. 😊
Thank you so much! See you next week
Play good evening or good afternoon hey how capital and wonderful job hey at least you got that got everything done I guess looks good and I just work with a little out of time and you will make a make it come out just like you should be all right take it easy God bless you❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Good job Biata ….. about a month ago. I made custom cabinets for a customer and they were painted a dark blue color very similar to yours. It really hurts for me to paint over natural wood but not everybody’s taste is the same.Also Biata please don’t go into a well alone without someone being nearby we don’t want anything happening to you ….Stay Safe
Thank you! And very awesome! My cabinets were off white so it was nice to add colour. Painting over wood is sad, I agree :(
Please be careful in enter a confined space like the sceptic tank you connected the pump as there can be toxic gas and please always have somebody there to pull you out if needed as you need to wear a harness
I have experience where the 2nd person entered to save you and also become a victim
I love your show and mate. You have a sure will to complete the house
Well done
Regards
Bill
You did it , congratulations!
Have loved your channel since day one
We absolutely love your cat ..great idea with catnip Biata and well done with the deck and sewer 😊😊
Awh thank you! She’s so cute! Her name is Reese :)
That’s gonna be so much better being on your land… And right at your build site.. yay Biata
So true! So excited!
Another season in your life and hopefully this one passes quickly and your in your new home.
That would be lovely :)
It will be so much less stressful not having to travel so much to work on the house. Getting the roof on will change the whole look of the place.
Right! So happy to be here! And so excited to get the roof on lol
Your new name is Wonder Woman Iam so happy for you getting were you need to be working so hard but that’s the way it have to be. For the way you want it your way ….God bless u and the Family 👍👍🫵🏻🫵🏻🙌👏🏼👊🏻🏆 ..🇺🇸🇺🇸 .🦂
Hello Biata your getting there girl I love the way you just soldier on good stuff thank for sharing
GREAT JOB, want share about plumbing clamps, my clamp was stainless steel clamp, but the screw was not. it rusted and broke jamming the float on my sump pump, not trying to scare you, just was my experience with stainless steel clamps bought in the plumping section of the big box store.
Thanks so much for the info!
Torx screws.. Make sure you have the correct size bit for that screw, but torx screws are so good they are replacing nailing. They like impact drivers. They go in easily, they come out easily.
Awesome! Thank you! I just had decking screws
Did you number all the siding so you can put it back in the right order? Maybe some things will change (sewer) so that doesn't matter. Looks so good. Nice job.
With a trailer when you are parked you should keep your valves all closed and only dump when your gauges say you are full then dump
We’re doing that for sure at our new place! Makes things easier with the flow of the black tank!
Very talented woman, great job
That poor camper you can't sell it after all it's been through !!! LoL 🤣 can't wait to see the roof on that's what I'm waiting for and the siding!! Your getting closer to the time when you can relax somewhat 🤠
Haha we’re definitely going to have to renovate it again :)
I never fail to learn something new from each video. Got lost briefly on the floor removal until I saw the
room extension move inward. Your smiling, positive demeanor made my day again ,Biata! An enormous amount of hard work to prepare & move,es then set up your trailer again at the house site. You are like the energizer bunny that never quits!. You beat Ole Man Winter in getting moved before the snow flies.
Happy for all of your success,Biata. 👍👍👍🤩🤩🙏🏻❤
Thank you so much! Haha the energizer bunny!
Hey sweetheart about the camper flooring actually there's an easier way to get the slide in...so the slides have a little bit of wiggle room and you would of needed another person to help but you could have put some jacks under slide and jacked it up enough to slide over the flooring and you may have needed to put something like an extra piece of flooring for it to slide on to keep from scratching the installed flooring anyway for future reference but happy to see you're finally on your property and can wake up to your beautiful view every morning
Ohhh! Interesting! That would’ve been helpful hahaha
God Bless from your Canadian Friend
You need a exterior filter on the outside going into the house. Which will allow you to filter all that darkness out coming out of the will
Well done. Itll be so nice to wake up ip on the property. You continue to amaze me! Keep going girl!
Thank you so much! So amazing to wake up here!
I have been watching you from day 1 and I must say that you are a very determined and talented young lady. There is nothing that you cannot do or figure out. Everything I have seen you do has been amazing to watch. I have not seen you moving your trailer before so today I have to say that watching you prep for the move and reinstall it all was impressive and fun to watch. Have a great week. Looking forward to the next video.
I just joined your channel. Stumbled upon your channel a couple of months ago. What you're doing is just amazing and you're one tough lady. Your property is really beautiful too. Will support all the way. All the best from KL, Malaysia.😀
Thank you so much for watching and thanks for being part of my TH-cam Memberships! I’m glad you’re enjoying the journey! :)
You are truly amazing.
Buata that was so great I really enjoyed it that may have taken you a week but was worth it thank you
Thank you so much!
Amazed again .. Nice work
Great work Biata, your hard work is undeniable! ✌🏼❤️🙏🏼
Yay!! What a difference that will make in your ability to get more done on your house build! Always impressed by you! 🎉🎉🎉
Great!!! 🙌 you are doing good!
Thank you so much!
You’re a machine!! Well done, it’s a beautiful home and views are amazing!
Keep up with the good work and always take your time and good luck and be safe and God bless you
Thank you so much! I appreciate it :)
@@SimpleLivingwithBiata you are welcome
Well done and keep up the good work i could not do what you are doing
You’re doing a fantastic job 😊😊
Thank you so much!
My favorite project of you,was when you fitted the windows and doors.
Oh thank you! That was a crazy project haha
yup
It is amazing to see you doing this yourself. You really go out of your comfort zone and get shit done. a true inspiration. Good job Biata. Miss seeing Craig, tell him he has a fan i Sweden. =)
Good morning and great video Biata. Take care and have a blessed and safe week 🙏
Thank you so much! Have a great week!
In the future don’t wouk down in a main holl pit or an ejector pump pit with out supper vision just in case god forbid there is Matangas or ather gases so you can be halped
Ah true! Thank you!
You are superhero 💪. Great work!
You’re too kind! thank you!
Incredible vid. It was nice to see the process of the move. Love the little black fur-ball. Will you take her into the house to run around in once in a while?
I wanna get the doorknob on so she can come in and not escape haha :). Soon!
Your brave..!!!
We are in the same situation! This is our 1st winter in our RV. We were hoping we would be in our house by now, but TOTALLY underestimated how long everything would take.
We are a family of 5 in Vermont. I Just started my own channel. ❤
-YOU inspired me!
That’s so exciting! Good luck with your channel and your build and winter in the trailer! Especially a family of 5!
@SimpleLivingwithBiata thank you!
It's a journey for sure!
It sure bubbles you too. We have had no water or septic till 3 weeks ago. 🤯 we sill have a Porta potty too. - it gives a whole new meaning to "frost on your pumkin" lol
Big milestone Biata, congrats. Got alot done in a week. How happy are you to not be travelling back and forth??
So so happy! And very thrilled to have my own space. The stars are brighter here, the land is vast. It’s truly incredible 🥲
If not to far to relocate trailer just leave extensions out and go slow.
Haha someone else said this to me! I’d worry we’d get pulled over!
