I would suggest buyers go to the home site as often as they can - of course do not interfere with the workers or get in their way. Do this at your own risk! We came after hours, and took tons of pictures. The builder told us we were not allowed on site, but we did it anyway. The builder started to put a skylight in the wrong place (not just wrong room, but wrong floor), so we were able to tell them and get it moved before it became a massive problem. Now almost 30 years later, these photos have been extremely valuable locating wiring, plumbing, framing, etc. behind drywall for many reasons. Thank you for a valuable video!
@@fitter70probably not A vertically symmetrical structure if that makes sense, What I mean by that is the first and second floor are not stacked with the same square footage. Only thing I can think of. Because there's no way in hell somebody could put a skylight below a bedroom or kitchen or room of any kind

Love TY. Had me in tears; just awaiting the process. My grandfather was in construction and I remember him tell me; how when they got finished building the sears tower he sat on top of the building and ate his lunch. Blessings 2 you and your family and my grandfather Charlie Turner Sr.
not even 5mins into the video and I already want to say thank you! Carpenter here who wants to venture into new additions and extensions. I know alot already but not everything and also was a lil grey on which steps come first especially the start, foundation, plot plans, permits etc...this is golden.
You made me smile. It's true, the effort put into this video will never be appreciated by 99% of the people who see it. Can I at least get a thumbs up from y'all? LOL. Thanks for the compliment. I appreciate you more than you know.
This was a pretty comprehensive video outlining the process of home building. I respect the time and effort put into creating this video and editing it for steady flow. Great work!!
It just blows my mind at the men and women that make this thing work they take a nothing and create houses sometimes in a year or two it’s just amazing work!
Wow, this is the most engaging and detailed video on the house construction process I have ever seen. As a civil engineer who recently moved to Canada, I have been searching for a resource like this to learn the steps involved. Thank you for your efforts in creating such an informative and comprehensive video.
@@Outsidethebox-nw4bc thanks for watching and for taking time to leave such an awesome compliment. I appreciate it way more than you could ever imagine. Best of luck to you.
Wow, I’m blown away. I’ve always wondered about all of this and I feel like I’ve learned so much. My wonders are gone. Makes me want to build a house. Thank you
I know i'm late to comment but, I just saw your video and it was the first of it's kind to me that was detailed in a way that my wife understood and liked it! I use her because she has never built a building and I have and she watched it through it's entirety. You are a game changer sir and I will follow and watch every video you post from here on. Thank you for doing these!
Thank you for the compliment. I appreciate it way more than you know. I always do my best to make my videos simple, using terms that most people understand. This video took me over 3 months to complete and it was very frustrating at times so I am extremely grateful I could help you both. Thanks for subscribing and I look forward to hearing from you in the future.
Great job in step 20, sir. Your explanation was spot on except for one small detail regarding the junction box. Just to share some information, a junction box serves a different purpose compared to an electrical gang box. Junction boxes are used to house wire connections, ensuring safety and protection for electrical connections. On the other hand, electrical gang boxes, also known as switch or outlet boxes, are containers specifically designed for switches, outlets, or other devices. They come in various configurations depending on the number of switches or devices they can accommodate (e.g., 1-gang, 2-gang, etc.). I'm not mentioning this to show you up, but just to provide some additional insight. Keep up the good work!
Thank you for this, I’m from Nigeria so we use more of concrete blocks but I am marveled at the speed of construction of US single family homes. Hope to experiment one in Nigeria some day.
it's really a knowledgeable video and advance use of technology to make video in very simply way. Salute you Sir that's explanation in very very better then we read in books.
Lord willing, starting the build on my first house for a customer in a couple months. It’s so easy to get lost in the details and lose the overall picture. This is invaluable.
Haha. Yeah, it took over 2 months to get all the footage. No doubt there was a lot of frustration as I searched & often had to wait several days to get the footage I needed for the next part. Thanks for the compliment and for watching my video.
@@TyWilde no problem at all; It is very interesting and entertaining! I am so glad to know that someone with you skills knew that there were people out here that actually want to see every bit of the details you cover!
Thank you so much for this content! As an aspiring builder, being able to see it step by step in the field has been invaluable! Much love from Detroit, Michigan!
Thank you so much for an elaborate video showing house construction in the US. In India its entirely different and much more structurally solid construction with bricks and concrete walls and roof. 🙏
So ive done strip down home renovations before. A lot of this is wonderful help for beginners. MAN sheetrock is heavy stuff. I would like to mention that making sure you always have pictures and communication iwth building teams is important
It was! Thank you for recognizing. There's a reason no one has gone this in-depth. Producing this video took over 4 months & it was very frustrating trying to find home in the right stage of construction to fill certain sections of the video.
Thanks for the compliment. I appreciate it more than you know. Without a doubt, there was a LOT of frustration getting all of the footage needed to complete this video.
Thank you for making this video! I just finished building a higher end house in Gwinnett County, GA and it was great rewatching the process on video. Straight to the point and very informative!
Thanks for highlighting the complexity of designing and building a home. I now have a higher level of respect and gratitude to builders and tradesmen. I’ve never watched a video quite like this before.
Fantastic video, as a superintendent down here in FL, you nailed it man! Love your attention to detail while teaching new home owners about the building process. 👍🏼👍🏼
damn..respect on the amount of work done to complete this video.. a like, subscribe and comment just doesnt seem like enough. i feel like I should be sending you a check
LOL. I appreciate the trifecta more than you know. You nailed it though. I don't think most people consider the amount of time, energy & frustration that went into making this video. Thanks for recognizing that. Have a good one.
My toxic trait is thinking I could build my home by myself...yeah heck no!! Wow.. I'm very impressed with your knowledge and even more impressed by how a pile of dirt can turn in to something beautiful. I'm looking to buy my 1st home within the next 6 months so Ive been on YT for the past 2 weeks...learning so much from ppl like you. Thank you!
You probably may not be able to physically build the whole home yourself but you can be your own general contractor and delegage all the work to specific subcontractors. If you have the know how you may even chose to do some work yourself like drywall, painting, finishing work, tiles etc. Doing it like this may save you over $100k. Its been done many times by regular people with regular jobs. Just gotta do your homework.
@@nateg5915 that's actually exactly what I want to do. I'll have to do it on a construction loan though because all of the new builds I've seen and the sales ppl for them said I have to let the builders do it. Which I know they upcharge upgrades out of this world. And it still won't be to my liking.
Amazing how you Americans build beautiful houses with wood , plywood etc as those materials are much more cheaper and energy efficient than concrete and stone bricks.
Thanks for watching and for your observation. Building HOMES this way also allows us to run plumbing, heating and air, electrical and other wires to other parts of the home.
@@TyWilde Exactly i agree with you, as i study Civil Engineering i see that our codes and industry are rich on reinforced concrete structures and steel structures but unfortunately there is not enough resources about the wood structures in my region.
Really appreciate you Ty for providing us with great detailed knowledge on new house construction. I’m building a new house in Canada by myself. So was searching for knowledge of the process online, to be really honest you’re videos really helped me to gain great knowledge of the home building process. Just followed you from past last week & had watched almost all your videos! Is it possible that you can share house building detailed schedule with us & the checklist of the process ? Thanks again for providing us knowledge. For sure, would refer you to friends & family living in Utah! 👌🏻💯
Thanks for the compliment & I'm honored I was able to help you. Please explain what you mean by detailed schedule & checklist of the process. Are you asking for a shorter version of this video showing an actual list? Thanks.
@@TyWilde Thanks Again Ty! We would reach 100k subs soon🔥 if the videos would be of this quality. By Schedule, I mean what’s the first process, best time to apply for plans, when to order lumber, when to schedule plumbers so they can do the underground work so that we can pour basement floor. So basically, the sequence of work, to do the work smartly in less time. By Checklist, I mean the first to last list of work, like when we buy a lot, whats the first thing, we’ll get the architectural drawings, and the plot plan, then we’ll apply for the building permit. Like if the framing is done, we can do roofing and siding at the same time to save time. We can do electrical, plumbing, and HVAC at the same time to save time to build the house fast. Again Thanks Ty, I got to know the process, but doesn’t have the complete list and doesn’t know when to do what work in what sequence. For example, Someone forgot to order windows and it took 3 weeks to come in, so it made them 3 weeks late. So the big builders and well experienced person like you would only help us to find the schedule & checklist. Otherwise, it’s just trial & error for us. Again thanks a lot for your time, really appreciate your efforts in helping us out. God bless you 💯👌🏻
@@singhmalhi457 Thanks for explaining. I don't deal with that side of the construction process meaning I've never ordered the products or scheduled the different trades. The builder has someone in purchasing who knows when to order the different products & the superintendent is responsible for scheduling the different trades & then making sure they actually show up on time. With shortages in many products & materials, there have been long delays. I would recommend hiring a superintendent to oversee the project & then order things well in advance. For instance, cabinets will take a minimum of 45 days. Thanks for reaching out & best of luck.
Unfortunately I no longer work for homebuilders. It's been a few years now & no longer have those connections. A superintendent should be able to help you with most questions.
Ive done a bunch of electical work and drywalling, was very curious about the rest of the homebuilding process, and this video didnt dissapoint! Thanks for the in depth guide my friend, definitely subscribing! 👍
This is the most comprehensive home-building video Ive ever seen! I just built my first new home, an entry-level home, I see where costs were cut vs this house, thankfully I hired my own ex-builder inspector, I learned alot but this was a great primer video. I have alot of video of sub-contractor corner-cutting, if you build in a subdivision with a low-cost builder, the subcontractor you get can be the make or break, some are amazing & some cut all sorts of corners, spending $1500 for my inspector to make surprise inspections of subcontractors is everything.
Thanks so much for this video. It was a new experience for me watching a RU-vid learning video without skipping a second. Your way of presenting is immaculate. Can you make a video about adding a living basement suite to the house?? Lots of like and respect from Edmonton AB.
You are so welcome! Thank you so much for the compliment. I have a lot of videos in the pipeline, but I'll give your suggestion some serious consideration. Best of luck to you.
On step 45 i also agree to buy it how the builder put it, especially in apartments. If in an apartment or townhome, if maintainance needs to be done it can potentially frustrate the fixing process because no one has a drill bit for a hillman screw as an example. Plus its easier to get used to the appliance if its not changing brands and models frequently. Thanks for the video. I always wondered why land just sat there for the longest time and then suddenly the foundation and wood is up. Seems like quite the legal process. Back then things like the downtown salt lake bishop storehouse grain silo could be built in about 8 days. Its incredibly huge and still works regardless. How times have changed, but it keeps people safe.
Hello thank you for this amazing video! We can’t wait to watch it several times and study the information. Would there be a way that these steps are available as a print out that we can review and study? Thank you again!

I love how thorough you are with this instructional video, thank you. Now in days, it is code for new constructions to have Arc Fault breakers in the breaker box for kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms.
Great video thank you for this! Sad that new construction still uses this central AC HVAC systems when we have much more efficient, cleaner easier to install mini split systems that take up way less interior and exterior space.
Thanks for the compliment & recognizing how much work went into this video. I was by far the most difficult & time-consuming video project I've ever undertaken. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
I love this comment. Thank you. Yes, 100% this video was extremely time consuming & difficult. I don't think I'll do something like this again. Thanks for watching.
