Very informative and I love seeing women doing projects such as this. It gives me inspiration and confidence! My husband hates home improvement so I am learning to do many of these things myself so I do not have to rely on him:)
This was the most informative and easy to understand video I have seen on wall building so far. Great job and thank you! (Women are such better communicators)
Can’t wait to start my project of separating a large basement room in a bedroom and a recreation room. I am a beginner so this was very helpful. Thank you
building a wall just like this today. This is probably a better way for me to do it opposed to building it on the floor and raising it after built. Thanks for the video! Well done!
I really liked this a lot! It was easy to understood, well communicated directions, safely constructed and helped me understand how to overcome a lack of upper body strength when I build. Thank you!
I LOVE!! watching ladies do work like this. I learn things PLUS women implement cleaning as you go! Personally I have so much work I have to do on my home and I can not handle messes!!
I never came across a palm nailer b4 that was awesome and the saw to cut the wood looks like it makes that gob soo easy.. So glad i came across your vid
I like you two....good, fun interesting video projects. I did something similar several years ago. I built a non-load bearing separating wall to divide a long room into two rooms. I added a door as well as an electrical outlet and a light switch for a ceiling lamp. Ran electrical from an available junction box in the attic to the outlet, up to the wall switch, then up to the lamp. Every time I turned on the light and tried to use the outlet at the same time I would trip a circuit in my electrical box. I spent about 8 hours trying to figure out the issue and must have tripped the circuit 10-15 times....lol. So finally, I get fed up, go to bed and try again the next day. Amazing what I night of rest will do for you. I tripped the circuit breaker again but immediately realized that the circuit I was tripping was for the 220 volt dryer connection! Moved my electrical connection for wall outlet/light switch to another junction box in the attic (non-220 volt of course!) and solved the issue! Can't believe I tripped that circuit 10-15 times the day before not realizing it was for my dryer!.....LOL.
Thanks so much- glad you like our videos! Thanks for sharing about your wall. We for sure had those moments in this build- it took us forever to make sure our bottom plate was straight before we were ready to attach it in place!
I did redo our garage and created a room but raised it since it would flood on occasion but now that the flooding issue has been resolved, wish I would have placed that extra room floor level. Easy redo but great tips here when I make that floor... floor level when I get to that project.
Two thumbs up! This is the only video and instructions thatI could find that showed adding support in the attic. All the other videos showed how to frame the wall, but did not show how to properly secure the top rail to the ceiling by creating the support in the 3:12 attic. I wonder how many walls are built that are only screwed into the drywall ceiling.
WOOOOW! If only I knew you too!! You are just what I need! I'm having a problem soundproofing a shared kitchen wall in my apartment because of my neighbor's bass in her music (she lives in an efficiency next to me)! My kitchen and livingroom all run together with no separation. I was just thinking that it would be nice if I could separate the kitchen from livingroom which is where I have to sleep since a rude neighbor moved in below me a year ago. Their bass/music has really destroyed my peaceful apartment and it's unfortunately happened after I retired! Just sad especially cause management really hasn't done anything to help ME. So as long as I still have to live here until I can afford to move out I need to soundproof my kitchen wall so I can sleep peacefully in my livingroom. I don't know if soundproofing a shared kitchen wall in my old apartment complex is easier to do than trying to put up a temporary wall to separate the one long room. I'm at my wit's end and I really need help. I mailed carpet remnants on my kitchen wall so far but couldn't reach up near the ceiling so the wall is 85 % covered but of course I can still hear the low frequency bass! I cannot continue living like this as-is. I'm not a quitter so I continue to research for help bec for now I have to live here in Philly until I can move! Thanks.

You guys did a fantastic information job!! I love it!! I will be doing on like that with your guys video!!!
This is awesome and motivated me to do it at home. My floor is laminated, so the question is, do I need to remove some of the flooring to put the bottom plate?
Very talented demonstration in terms of the work conducted and the video production, no frills no fuss, straight up informative useful content, good job thanks for posting! (personally I'd do pretty much the same things paying little to no attention to precision and using a shit load of nails...most of which would miss the beams... lol)
Great work. Thanks for the help! I'm trying to build a wall to partition a laundry room but its in the basement, any advice on how to secure it above??
How would you do something like this inside the home. For example, we have a formal dining and living room. The divider has a curved top. I was thinking of turning the formal living room into a room. I would want to remove it if we ever needed to sell the house.
I have a question for you, my husband and I are going to build walls around our basement access but I can’t find any studs in the existing wall connect my 2x4 to for the new wall to build off of. What should I do because I can’t put it anywhere else due to the steps in the floor going into the basement? Should I use anchors? And if so, do you have any to suggest?
