Thank you very much for the video, not to many gable end videos or pictures to get ideas but yours is helping out wonderfully as I’m working with a contractor to get one built. Awesome job!!
Great work and thank you for sharing your project. I am planning on adding a similar gable tie to my house. I wished you had a more content on how you install the roofing shingles from the old to new.
Thanks. Yea honestly, I had a friend of mine that is a roofing contractor come and help with that. He got me going on the straight runs while he did the old-to-new tie in at the valleys. There is definitely a skill there that I respect as it was like a puzzle with the weaving and criss cross tie in. Look up woven and closed cut shingle tie in, might help develop your plan.
I want to do the same thing to my home. Question: are the beams going through the roof resting on the top plate? How did you attach them to the plate? Thanks for the video. Good work!
I like the T1 11 Board you used on the roof, it gives it a nice look when under the Porch. When nailing the shingles, didn't the nails come through? Can you see the nails when under the porch, looking up?
I saw one done like like this at a neighbors, I actually have the T1 11 facing down with another sheet of OSB on top to add thickness. You can see a few of the nails that landed in the grooves but after the paint really can’t tell unless your looking for them.
hey Bud, i like your video. but im confused on the ledger board that was attached to the house. one minute it was there and the next minute it was gone. did you guys decided not to go with or?
Yea I put that ledger up temporary just to clean up the look where the soffit was cut until I gout around to closing the gable and painting. Good catch tho! I honestly had to look back at the video to remember why I had it there in the fist place.
I have found this video very helpful as I make plans for a very similar porch. Do you by chance have any blueprints or drawings you'd be willing to share? My county in Ohio requires such plans for issuing permits. Thanks and I hope you're enjoying the porch!
Would you mind sharing a ballpark on how much this cost for at least the materials? I have a very similar house and want to do this at some point in the future.
I didn’t really keep tight track, but would guess around $4k. Covers framing material, paint, and shingles. Lots of little things add up after the materials are dropped.

Awesome work you should consider putting some ventilation in the area above the house.

I want to do this exact dimension porch. If you estimated the cost of just Materials, what do you think it was?

How tall is your porch? Planning on getting one soon I’d like the similar height . Looks spacious
Beautiful wood work
Thanks! We were happy to finally have a nice sized covered area to relax and grill in the back yard.
Thank you for sharing your video and experience.
What size timber did you use for rafters and beams?

Did you use LVLs for the ridge beam, ledger/rail boards and your end beam/rafter tie?

Very nice work by the way!
@@justinspreadborough5968 looking at doing one myself, ballpark id say 2500

Any possibility of sharing the plan? I’m doing a gabled roof and I want it the same way. Same dimensions as well
That's a single ply beam for the spine???
Around How much would this cost materials and labor
sorry you can say as soon as the porch came out, only the labor
God job Wentworth, but waaaaaay to many pics of the posts!
About how long did it take to complete this ?
After the planning and materials were onsite, seems like I had about 10 full days in it with 2-3 people working.
What was you max beam span, and what size beams?
Used double 2 X 12 beams with max span no more than 12ft.
cost?
How deep were your footers ?
They were about 3ft deep and I used 320lbs of quikrete per hole.
By any chance do you have a reference video on the footings for this project or feedback I’m trying to do a 12ft x 16ft gable cover roof
You skip over too many major steps, like how to set the posts (structurally) and how to set the ridge beam
These kind of videos without talking and just a bunch of stupid music or waste of time
