This is it! Join the Perkins crew for another EXCITING episode of building a house start to finish! Today we finish up the punch list and wipe our way out! This project took us a total of about six months to complete from start to finish, and the perkins crew took pride in designing and managing the build as well as doing most of the physical labor to construct the home! Thanks for building with us!

A rule of thumb I was taught by my grandfather who was a master carpenter for nearly 40 years, "The last 10% is 90% of your clients expectations." It is so easy to see a project as complete when all the big stuff is done, but the final, small details are what the homeowner sees and remembers when telling others about their experience working with you.
That is so true...
Persnickety Task are the worst.
It's justifiable though. You spend 250k+ you want to walk in and not see dry wall screws, a chip on a banister, a trim piece missing. Etc. Brand new homes should be impeccable. The only thing that should be skimped on is whatever the client buys. As.far as.labor goes, that should be high expectations.
@@MrTimequake 250k??? Dam that’s cheap no where near the prices out here in the Bay Area
@@huewy76 middle north Carolina. ..about 3 hours east of these guys
Ya'll need to respect Jamie's nerdiness. I'm here for the deep dive.
Well said… I can respect it for sure. That’s of the reason our houses turn out good every time
thanks for letting Jamie explain the "guard" he always seems to be able to get the details explained.
I actually enjoy Jamie's Ted talks. Ha
Welcome back, Ray!
Can we get more Building Knowledge Channel content? I like Jamie’s explanations better when they’re not skipped 😁
Roger that! We’ve just been super busy, but Jaime will get to explain things a lot more on our next series as well
Over-under is the only way for cables! You guys should consider getting velcro cable ties. They're re-usable and don't leave sticky spots on the cable like electrical tape does after a while. Great series, btw. I have really enjoyed every single episode. Looking forward to your next project!
I usually just daisy-chain them it feels less complicated than over and under
@@miguelruiz4613 over-under is really simple. Basically, it's just a twist of the wrist. I had to watch a youtube tutorial a couple of times before I got it. Once I did, it became second nature.
This technique is called a "roadie wrap", because roadies on tour are constantly wrapping cables. The main benefit besides being easier on the cables is that you can unwrap the cables without them getting tangled. If you did it correctly you should be able to hold one end, toss the cable, and have it unravel all by itself.
SO good to see Ray again!
Over Under ALL DAY!! Been doing this for 25 years (hoses too) and NEVER had a twisted cable. Shout out from Long Beach CA! If any of you come out to the west coast, hit me up. Love videos. Cheers
Excellent thank you….. NEXT!!!! John from Scotland 🏴
That’s for watching!
@1:00, "...I'm actually proud of you," gotta love that brotherly love!
The best lesson I learned in construction is you never know it all you learn something new every day
So true… I learn something every day it seems. That’s one thing I love about this kind of work
0:07 HEEYYY LOOK WHO'S BACK! The Golden Boy!
I''ve watched the series every break time in building my small cabin , its funny , always interesting, informative ,etc Eric is a good boss.
2 days to watch this entire build, i need to stop binging this channel
Glad to see Ray's back. Can't wait for the new build what's the square footage? Keep up the good work guys.
It’s like 1500 sq ft. Simple yet nice looking design
Eric must be the busiest dude ever. Building, designing, filming, editing, kids, moving, etc....
Keeping his little brother on a leash...
@@MrTimequake thank you for seeing the plight of The Little Brother. We thank you.
As light designer and technician (basically coiling and un-coiling cables for a living) I like how muche care you put into your cables, and I can bless every single word Jamie said
Thanks Martin! Jaime learned all that good stuff from doing live sound when we used to travel around playing music together in our 20s. Cables are expensive and it really sucks if you get to a gig and you have something that doesn’t work!
@@PerkinsBuilderBrothers also, if you have several millions $/€ in your cables, you better learn how to take care of them. Before Covid, I was also touring with a big company, doing concerts and festivals, had to change the job tho. I am from Slovakia/EU, we have totally different style of building houses here, wood frame houses aren't really a thing here, mostly bricks and concrete, so one of the biggest reasons, why I watch your channel, is your crew and chemisty/friendshop you have, which reminds me a lot my old touring crew!
Thank you!
Now I've learned 4 things about Slovakia. Beautiful scenery,mostly have concrete/brick houses,xenophobic, and of course the mostly known one...racist but we may should just skip that one😬
hello.merci pour toutes ces video.sa nous apprend a voir les difference entre chaque pays...vous etes une equipe tres sympathique..merci a bientot
When it comes to construction materiel, I'm such a massive hoarder.
Especially nowadays.
Rarely does a foot long piece of 1x12 or a 3ft 2x4 come in handy, but you are super grateful when it does.
I tell myself I'm saving the environment by doing this.
Those left over pieces always come in handy, even if it’s just to bang another piece of wood into submission
It’s just plain good any way you slice it..
I love watching the building processes and the pro tips ect. But, in all honesty Jamie make watching this a whole lot nicer. You're all hand some but I have a soft spot for Jamie.
We are building stairs using your jig method. So easy! Thank you
And welcome back Ray
My heart stopped when you tightened the shower head to the tile. I was afraid it was going to crack!
I loved the series! It helped take my mind off the fact that I’ve been working with my builder in Burke Co. for 11 months and they’re still not anywhere near breaking ground…but they’ve really good at building billboards. You guys do beautiful work.
This old lady sure enjoys your videos!
Thanks for watching!
43,074 views and no dislikes! You guys are on another level!!
Wow that is actually impressive! There’s always someone that really hates our videos out there :-)
I was laughing my head off for a lot of this episode. “Hey this is a full set of drill bits, have you ever seen one?” 😂 me neither
I laughed at that as well... also made me think, hey that's the set that Project Farm channel found to be the best set for your money. Check out his channel if you haven't.
And why is the 10 mm always missing???😡
Ya haha! In Allen keys it’s always the 4 mm
I want Jamie to do one of his long form explanations on how to easily remove those bits without slicing up your fingers. That'd be learning gold, in addition to the cord wrap and grouting explanations
that final look back at the NOC sign made me feel a little sentimental. except for those atrocious wall colors, it’s a lovely cozy wonderful house.
When you over-under; hold the first end in your hand like a fire hose pointing away from you- that way you don't have to take your hand off the cable, it just slides along- it's quicker! 🙂
Nice tip David … Thanks
I learned “over under” in the commercial diving industry.
We coiled diver umbilicals this way to prevent tangling.
Jason was the employee of this construction series. Good job guys
For the table saw tip I would just get a featherboard to keep it tight to the fence. You would still need an extra set of hands for outfeed support.
I love a good feather board…
Full bit set earned a thumbs up! Great video as always.
Have enjoyed watching the entire series. The NOC is the first (and only) place I ever went rafting!
Glad Ray is back
Me too
Hmmmmm! Jamie talking to cables.
That’s a pro tip, that every contractor has done at the end of day or at the end of the day!
Thanks Chuck
Amazing from start to finish!
well guys after watching you for a year and working hard as a building apprentice I finally went a spent $4.5k on Dewalt Tools. Going for a new job trial this Christmas, gonna bring my A game and everything I've learned at work and watching your channel, hope it works out! All the best.
And that’s a wrap! Take a bow gentlemen, good job done!! 💪🏼👏🏼🤩😎
Just finished the build series… binged watched it in two weeks.
Rayz zztop beard is the bomb. Great job everyone.
Dude his beard grow about 6 inches since the last time I saw him!
The Essential Craftsman also has a really good video about cable management.
I like that guy a lot. He has so much knowledge and experience to share!
A suggestion on the door under the steps they where installing ; use a touch latch when you push on the door it pops open then you don't need a knob. On the table saw I build a two feet by four feet outfeed table; that way when you rip a board it is supported an does not fall off the end of the table saw; which is much safer.
So much to watch these guys work and finish up a job.
Excelent Work, and thanks for de effort, I enjoy all the 49 chapters, Hola from Metepec México
I put a small tub under the small screw so if it drops, it drops into the small tub. PRO TIP OF THE DAY 🇮🇪
Pro tip ....use a piece of pex pipe to run over the grout lines. It gives a nice half round finish and also removes the drying grout.
So satisfying to see one job come to an end. It's a beautiful house I know your clients will love. Can't wait to see the next one.
Yep. That figure 8 is the best way to coil up stuff, even hoses, although hose reels don't like that very much.
RAY, good to see youre back, man.
Amazing videos guys. The house looks stunning and I love the NOC shout at the end. Perfect
Find build, can’t wait for the new video.
Wheeeee!!! Comrad Ray is back!! His beard looks longer, thus he looks younger)))
The finishing up stuff, is an accomplishment!!
Great job guys! Love the hands on easy explanation and problem solving
Another one in the books. Great job guys.
Good to have Ray back!
I can, in fact, fully appreciate the beauty of a full set of drill bits.
Actually no, Eric. The fastest way to meet your Lord is to un-bond the neutral whilst the house is lit up and doing stuff. Standing on soil and bonding the "safe" neutral will zap you with 230 VAC and a zillion amperes. The A-leg or the B-leg only have 115 VAC and a half zillion amperes to ground.
Wow that sounds terrible.. we will keep our distance! Thanks
I have the same problem with my Bosch table saw blade. It wears the cogs quickly and I've had to replace them. Ty for the tip of pulling at the same time as winding. I've loved this series. Great stuff.
Man, what a Great Job you guy's did on that House. I would have liked to see the Plumbing and Mechanical installs, but that's coming from a Plumbing Contractor for 33 years. Maybe next time.
Guys, you should rename yourselves to PERKINGS. Great to see Ray's back. Looking forward to a new build!
Sad to see this great build come to an end. I am looking forward to the next one.
I'm so gutted this project is finished as only recently discovered this channel. Hope the other projects are as entertaining.
Keep up the good work guys. The bond, the vibe, the team spirit is amazing.
Another one bites the dust 🤘
Over under is a great way to wrap cables, but one tip: get some velcro cable ties or some shoelaces/“tieline” and keep a piece tied onto each cable. Tie it like a shoe around the cable instead of wasting electrical tape every time and leaving sticky spots.
Ray welcome back .
Wonderful job perkins 👏👏👏
Wonderful series great job enjoyed the whole experience Thanks guys take care looking forward to the next build ------UK
Thanks Donovan!!
Ray is back -- happy days are here again.
I know the homeowner is excited to move in for the holidays! I can't wait for a home tour!
Welcome back Ray!
I can't wait to watch the next series!
That Nebia gift and promo was pretty awesome. Loved the installation of it-always wondered how those shower components were installed!
Those pieces of wood will almost cover the tile cutter🤣
Thanks for the journey guys, amazing experience and fantastic final product. Your clients must be over the moon. Onto the next, let's go 💪👏👏👏👌👌🏴
Way back when I did a lot of cable install that's how we carried the ladders. Helps keep you from banging the doors or kids running down the hall.
I enjoyed watching the videos from start to finish of this project. It’s just a pity that we find it hard building houses made of wood here in our place in the Philippines. The reason for that is that our place is the gateway of typhoons that come many times in a year which gives us enough reason to build our houses strong enough to withstand the typhoons. Because of these typhoons, we use concrete for our homes. The other thing is that even though we are in an island, we don’t have enough wood available to be used in building our houses. As a guy inclined to construction, I’ve learned many things from these videos. Thanks and keep up the good works.
Wooo.. Glad to see ray after a long time
Great series guys, loved every episode! Can't wait for the next series and it's great to see Ray is back! Cheers from the UK
Jones is back ! You guys do awesome work while having fun which says alot. Blessings
Well done Eric, another building in the can. Thanks for sharing your passion with your fans, good work and I hope you keep it up 👍.
I can appreciate Jaime’s drill bit storage. I have the same and agree there are only a few in the world. I also monitor users of mine so it can be replaced.
Wow! Looks amazing you guys! Following along with this is always the highlight of my week. Can’t wait to see what’s next!
A fine job done by master craftsmen.
I’ve had the Bosch table saw for a few years and I completely agree it’s the best I’ve used
New house cool
That last 'NOC' said by Eric hit me right in the feels. Good work guys.
Exited to see what’s next great job on that home!
You must be living right Jaimie. Nice on the pressure treated.
nice work assusual...good to see ray again....❤️🇵🇭
Once again, loved the series.
Glad to see Ray back.
Finally, I think Jamie might want to consider adding a smaller spin off channel, #letjamietalk
The details can make all the difference.
Thanks Lori! That was the idea with our building knowledge channel… We just haven’t had much time to make the extra videos
00:01 NOC!
Congrats on another awesome house!
28:49 NOCya Later!
Good thing that I wasn't around Jamie. I would have parked a truck in front of that little door !!!
At least until after lunch !!!
Heeeeeyyy! GB is back!
Eric, Jamie, Arlo, Jason, John, Ray thanks very much I stayed for the entire build, very entertaining and informative. Early on in the build Eric you made a golden comment about doing a calc to find out the weight of a gallon of water. Had me in hysterics, in NZ we got the metric system. 1 liter 1 kilogram...haha
I have two Bosch table saws and yes when they are used a lot the raising and lowering sticks. Just take out the plate and give the guides inside a little squirt of wd40 and it will work like new again. I have to do it every so often or when you start to feel it getting stiff again.
Thanks
Glad to see RayRay is ok k.
Can't wait to see new project
Keep them coming. Great job guys.
I was shown the Over/ Under coiling of cables in 1972, when at College in England, by one of the Roadies with George Thorogood and the Destroyers, and been using it ever since!
The over / under technique Jamie demonstrated, we used it in the ambulance for our defibrillator. Couldn’t risk tangled cables when someone’s heart stops. 👍🏻
I use to run 100 yards of coaxial. If you use your left hand with your palm facing up, place the start/ end cable out like your thumb, you'll never let go of the cable with the right hand and you could "over-under" all day.
