Shed to House ~ 1 Year Anniversary, A Look Back
Vložit
- čas přidán 22. 03. 2023
- With Spring Break this week, we took a break from the shed to house build. Since it is the one year anniversary of when I bought my land and started this journey, I decided to take a look back and see how far we have come. And how far we still have to go! I included costs for most of the big items, those will be different for different locations and situations but hopefully it will give you an idea at least, if you're considering doing something similar.

You beat me to own dream!! Lol!😂 Forested acreage with a tiny house is the goal that I am currently working towards. It is absolutely amazing that I ran across your channel right now. I've been doing lots of planning & research but seeing yours really pumps up my excitement level. Your place is absolutely beautiful! Thanks for sharing the process. Enjoy your new home in paradise!!!💕💕💕
You can do it!
Thanks for putting this video together. I really appreciate the price breakdown you included with each item that was needed. Thanks for sharing!
Glad it was helpful! 🙂
It looks great. Unfortunately I can't hear what you are saying because of how loud the music is.
You should have used "mini split" a/c heat units
That's the plan for spring. Unfortunately, it wasn't an option through the builder and I thought the PTAC would be okay, but after the summer we just had, I'm definitely going to save up for a mini split! Thanks for watching! ❤️
So exciting
Thank you
Honey I worked for the blue box store and they seldom ever get anything right the first time.
The struggle is real LOL
I just found your channel and subscribed. This is my next dream. Im working forward to have it fulfilled. God willing.🙏🏼
Welcome to the channel! I hope it works out for you, feel free to reach out if you have any questions 😊
❤️
Your son-in-law is a jack of all trades.😉
He sure is LOL
Love the shower doors
Thank you!
And your shower is just beautiful!
Best Wishes❤
Thank you! ❤️
Fun to watch it come together. I'm living in a construction zone too so I feel your pain, but I also feel your excitement every time some little thing gets finished.
Yes, exactly! Thanks for watching 😊
How exciting! I love all the fixtures. Great taste! Love your bathroom sink!
Thanks so much! 😊
Its looking good!! Love the shower. Probably the nicest shower I’ve seen in a shed to house. Can’t wait to see it when it’s done. My wife and I are thinking about physically building our own smaller house.
Thanks so much!
That's great, I hope it works out 😊👍
Very beautiful home and a nice peaceful video.
Thank you so much! 💓
Coming along.
It’s coming along nicely and can’t wait to see the finished results 😊♥️
I love your shed to house!! Love your land and am grateful you're showing all that you're going thru to complete your home. This is something I've thought about but where I live I'm not certain it would be the best move. I'm enjoying watching your adventure and seeing your plans come together even thru those "waiting" times. Admire your patience. (Love your dog too!) 😊
Aww thank you so much! ❤️
New to your channel and really appreciate that you expressed your frustrations, yet always with a positive mindset. Also, thanks for detailing costs and unexpected hiccups and delays. Wow, all the things I had not / did not know. Will be purchasing land soon and similar set up with a converted barn, shed or "tiny" home to live in. Thank you for this educational moment and excited to continue your journey and see the final reveal. Your location and home look amazing, and how blessed to have support/help from family 💙.
Thank you so much! Happy to have you here, let us know what kind of home you decide on! ❤❤
Your getting there ! Good things take time !
You have the best SIL ever! Cudos to that guy for taking such good care of you! What a sweet pup, too!
You are so kind, thank you! ❤️

Thank you so much! ❤️
I subscribed. It reminded me of our days moving onto our land many years ago.
Thank you, and welcome 😊
Very interesting
I love watching the progress on your shed to house conversion. It’s looking good so far.🌻
Thank you so much! ❤️
I purchased a Dirksens shed and converted it also.
That's awesome! How big is yours? Any tips for me? 😊
Such a great video very helpful
Glad it was helpful!
You will be planning your garden and the house will be done real soon.
Girl I am getting so excited for you. It's so close I hope that you will continue to Volga.
Thank you so much! Tyler has made some big progress since Spring Break, can't wait to show ya'll! 😊🔨🔨🔨
Music is so loud I could barely hear you, but it looks awesome.
sorry about that, I'm not very good at this LOL
WOWWW...YOUR SON-IN-LAW WORKS CONSTRUCTION OR JUST A JACK OF ALL TRADES?
Yes and yes, LOL! He's a carpenter but can do pretty much anything 😊
Great video. May I ask what was the reason for an aerobic septic?
Hi there, absolutely! After the soils test, there was too much clay in the soil so they would only approve an aerobic system for that reason. If it was sandy I could have gone with a conventional system. Thanks for the question! 😊
No need to pay $150 per tree to remove them. You can easily do that yourself... and SAFELY.
I wish I could've!
Love watching your progress and what a beautiful setting for your home! I love the shower and was wondering about the marble you added for the walls. Where did you purchase those two panels? Thanks and I hope you’re having a blessed day. Texas girl here. ❤
Hi there! Thanks so much, you're very kind. I got the shower panels from Lowe's. On their site they are called 'Jetcoat 42-in W x 42-in D x 78-in H Carrara White Corner Panel Kit Shower Wall Surround'
Not cheap, but I do love them!
Wishing you a blessed day as well, neighbor 😊♥️
@@a.shed.instead Thank you! 🌹
I’m going to need your son-n-law Tyler’s email to get info to send a him bottle of bourbon for his hard work to keep his wife’s mother happy!!
Lol great comment! I will show him this! 😁👍
Shoulda got a minisplit
Yep, I'm going to be looking into mini splits between now and next summer, for sure!
👍♥️
So im just curious ,why your attempting the tape and mudding yourself ?
Because money LOL, I can't afford to hire it out. 😊
I couldn't hear a thing for alot of video..the music overwhelmed it..wish I could have heard the whole think
Sorry about that, youtube put a copyright claim on it and then laid very loud music on top as a fix. 😥
Only had an issue during the August 2022 clip myself so far I'm at Jan. 2023
Is it me or does the foam installation look very shallow? Doesn't look half filled in between the boards. 😢
It's not half filled. I don't know ... that's how Derksen did it 🤷♀️
Thanks for watching! ❤️
I’m from Southeast Texas. I’m doing a “shed instead” also. What company did you get your shed from?
Hey there, good for you! My shed came from the Derksen factory in Woodville.
Did you have any issues getting permits?
The only permits I had to get here in my county were for the driveway/culvert and for the septic system. Thankfully! 😊
How did you get your shed to be under residential coding ?
I'm outside city limits, there's no zoning. 🙂
Total price? Maybe I missed it.
The building was $44k, I don't have a total price yet because it's not finished. 😊
How much was the electrical upgrade?
The electric package was $700, and thats 2 exterior lights and 4 outlets if I remember right. And then they charge per outlet and per light after that, I don't recall how much each.
@@a.shed.instead Thank you!
Where about in Texas are you located
Southeast Texas, near Houston 😊
I hope you're doing well and you're getting everything setup I have a place in Jasper Texas I have a Durkin shed also
Nice! Is yours all done?
