Just saw Erik's article about the engineered wood siding in PRO REMODELING magazine. Made me stop and look because I recognized the house.

What was the total cost?? You guys make most builders look like crap. Great work.
@@bitario723 aaaaaaaaaa
You do very well I also want to learn to do like you but the economy is not available
The editing on this video is insane, I can't imagine how many clips and transitions it has in it! Perkins have both great house-building and great video making quality
Ray-Jay taught them everything they know about film making LOl !
@@TheShelton1111 Rayjay videos have more sturdability
@@ezforsaken That's one way to do it.
Thanks!! I was able to do it on my iPhone but I had to do it in three separate files because it kept locking up. My guess is there is 400 different video clips and it took me about a month working on it on and off to get it put together!

I read the entire Ryan’s czcams.com/users/postUgkxGqOCINHE0Z0E5gxzSdNi9NWGugRY5Hm2 Plans and was able to make a shed plan. Using Ryan’s Shed Plans alone, the shed itself is great. Where I wish I knew more is with respect to ground preparation and foundations. Maybe that's beyond the scope of Ryan’s Shed Plans.
It is rare that a crew can do all the steps involved in building an entire house you guys are amazingly talented and just think of all the money you save!
They did contract the Mechanical and Electrical as talented as they are
@@pe4153you can never be too safe when it comes to electricity
You guys are unbelievably fun and encouraging to watch. Thanks for taking the extra time to film and narrate what you do
Real men yearn to construct at least 1 house in their life time
Women, too! I want to build my own house so bad, I love construction work but know next to nothing… ahhh maybe someday.
I am 28 and have only framed and done some drywall and tile. I definitely yearn too do it o e day but holy crap it would be stressful

Since childhood, I have always dreamed of having a house located on the top of a mountain, overlooking all the mountains and forests. Imagine, waking up every morning, making a cup of coffee at dawn in the golden landscape of tree leaves...What's better than that !!
Better than watching a movie, could watch this over and over. Love to see when people create something, specially when there is well thought planning and experience behind it. Greetings from Sweden.
insanely impressive, this could have been a 5 part series but i'm grateful that you compressed it into 1
These guys know everything about construction.
Отличная работа профессионалов, изумительный вид.
This was the first house I watched from start to finish. I loved everything about this build, with the exception of the paint colors that the homeowners chose!
Good job with editing this beast! Nice voiceovers, and very enjoyable music selections.
Highest level of respect for the work you all do. Fine crew doing amazing things!
Thanks Uriah 🙏
Next level editing Erik! Perfect sound and straight to the main course of education. The charm is strong in this vid
Thanks!! A lot of time went into this one… Went through thousands of video clips from a six month time period To put it together
@@PerkinsBuilderBrothers it shows !
Can't you build one as you go each week and just save until you get done, then time is spread out throughout build?
Rushed bollocks
I found some green nail bags in a car, at my grandfather’s junk yard. I offered them to a friend who was framing houses in the 70’s. He pointed at a couple of gorillas across the street, and said that I should put those bags on and go to work for those dam gorillas. I did, $4.50 an hour, “more loot than I knew what to do with. Retired now, still have all my fingers and toes. Built staircases, and interior trim for those last few years. Great life! Your guys do “very nice work”! Cheers.
I find it interesting they take the time to plane the tops of walls to get flat before rolling joists. Nice extra step, rather than planing the joists themselves later. I like to shim between top plates for low spots as well, but there's so many ways to do, that's one way!
That is what your channel needed. Full timelapses that hopefully go viral and bring some new subscribers to your channel. You really deserve all the attention.
Thanks We Ka
Yes this video brought me and I'm a new subscriber!
Y’all make me want to be a contractor when I get out of high school
This is a quality build because each step was videotaped showing the workers consciously putting in high quality workmanship. The house will be priced accordingly as a result.
I install Blinds for the living and this video scared me to death worrying about cracking a molding .AMAZING
👍Nice build! Quality home fer sure! In 2003 I had my dream home built (KY) by an Amish family crew of 10 professional home builders. The overall quality of their work was amazing to witness. My job afforded me the ability to stop in whenever I wanted & to witness the total build process was amazing. Plenty of great pix from the hole of basement to the brick, siding & roof shingles. Wish I would’ve shot video.
Thanks for this one. Brings back great memories. A quality home w/ my wife & 3 kids & were still here.👍🇺🇸
Watched the whole series, and it is nice to see a few photos after the owner's moved in. Keep up the great content and superior building practices.
when you build houses with passion and not for just a paycheck you get quality like this!
thanks Jeff!
That American Wood construction is so Alien to me, but it is really amazing.
I dont normally comment much or even bother to watch all the way through but this video was captivating and worth the wait to see how beautiful it turned out , Congratulations to all involved on a brilliant project.
You guys are awesome and my father who been a carpenter for over 40 years in Arizona really enjoys your videos. Love the team work and the attention to detail. Awesome work!!
A well-built house with a baffling and jarring selection of interior finishes. Wow.
Anyone notice the carpenter's "bionic hand" at 24:41. Apparently he chopped his fingers half off and got this made to have full length fingers again...with carbon fiber tips. Do what you love. AWESOME!
Great job, Erik! Both the house and the video. Have watched all of the Nantahala Retreat series and this was an excellent compilation of the build. Thanks for your diligence and editing skills not to mention your building skills! My favorite part was the photos of the fully furnished house at the end. That is what makes a house a home!
Great work boys, I love the attention to detail you guys have, my father and I are finishing our basement and were running into a ton of small problems. Taking your time and getting every little detail will pay off in the long run.
I started crying at 29:00 -- imagine having a house in the MOUNTAINS and you have an ELECTRIC fireplace...let that sink in.
I've been a contractor for 37 year's and just found this channel today, I've been disabled for about 10 years and hadn't been able to do it, but watching you guy's build this home really brought back alot of good memories, I know there's alot of different codes you have to go now though the year's and I see how hard it's got to pass inspection to go forward, but you guy's knocked it out of the park, so glad I found this channel and I'm subscribed and will be watching and liking 👍 to a build so keep on keeping on guy's love it already!!!!
After watching the entire series as it was built it was fun watching this and seeing it all again. Excellent summary with just the right amount of detail. Well done!
So impressed with the amount of skills, knowhow, and sweat that goes into building a house.
Looks amazing!! The home owners have to be overwhelmed with how it turned out!! That's what i call a dream house!!!
In our lives, change is inevitable. Loss is inevitable. Happiness lies in our adaptability to survive everything bad.

Be strong!
Good vibes from Brazil
I saw this video in my suggestions and now I’m hooked. I’ve been binge-watching all of your videos. You guys are funny, entertaining and I appreciate all of your knowledge and the fact that you’re out there doing quality work! Beautiful views too!! Hope all is well!
Awesome video! Love the way you and your team works, the attention to detail, safety, progression, the variety of different trade proficiencies you can offer, your selection of professional farming out specialty jobs and ownership of the final product, going above and beyond to ensure homeowner gets the best you have to offer. Looking forward to next project - Cheers!
“Safety”lmao we don’t see what goes on off the camera
this was so satisfying to watch. all thumbs up
Thank you for using a whole forest to build your house.earth really love you for that.
Love the energy you have on telling the story. Enjoyed it much. I also like how you guy's work together.
Just subbed…it’s been great watching you guys build and the drive you guys have. I moved and don’t know many people where I am at now, it’s nice watching other builders. I’ve been building for some years and I used to love to go to my other buddies job site who does new builds as well and check it out. Anyway thanks for kinda giving me that home feeling.
P.s. No matter how long one has been in the trades there is always something to learn, I watch for that also! Keep it goin fellas.
NICE presentation,what a commercial and what a show, of skilled artists from every trade my hat is off to you andall tradesmen across the united states of america.
Man I thought that was at least a four bedroom. Two bedroom for such a big home like that. Wow amazing. But in the long run that house came out awesome. I watched the whole video man really nice you guys did a great job 👍👍
Anybody notice the stair guys bionic hand? 24:31 So cool! I would watch a whole video on that, maybe there is one.
Edit: There's videos.
Hey there, thanks. It’s my hand. Made by Naked Prosthetics
Amazing time lapse footage. You guys are amazing at what you do. Truly professional craftsman homebuilders.
I use this each semester in my architectural design studio. The students learn a ton from it (and I, of course, get to nitpick some of the finish details! - always an architect!). Thanks guys!
I love the job let’s get it done 2024
Endless details. So much knowledge for so many tasks.
What a great, well made home.
Great job Erik. Let Jamie know that for sound deadening, we have used moving pads as sound absorption for years when we are in a pinch. Just line the inside of your box around the vacuum. One thing to be aware of is the heat being captured by the box so don't use for extended vacuuming projects. I agree it would be great if they could build a quieter commercial vacuum.
as a car mechanic I am so jalous of you people.
love everything about the work and the beautiful houses you make.
so several videos I had to see from beginning till the end
so satisfying even if the videoclips take more than 2 hours.
Swear this the channel I’ve been looking for with whole entire builds instead of jus outside builds and great editing and explanation better than any other construction channel ❤
This was truly a great video! Your work does not go unnoticed!
Fantastic video! Most people have no idea what it takes to build a home of this quality. I have learned so much from you all and have watched every one of your videos. Please, keep up the great work guys!
The time lapse is a great way to do this!
Mute the sound on this and Turn up some "Stick Figure", and this is the best video online
Stick figure make some great music!
Wow incredible achievement! We need your crew in California!
It would be nice you would add monthly marker on the video.
I have the DYI skills and have always dreamt of building my own house like this. But never mind, after watching this in its entirety I know realize I could never come close to finishing it in my lifetime :-0 You guys are so good at what you do! Hey, who is the guy with the exoskeleton fingers? Very cool but ouch, how did that happen?
it is so amazing that with our own hands, we can transfer logs, stones, muds into this beautiful house.
Kitchen cupboard? A walk in cupboard is a retro that really fits! Those 'under the counter' cabinets would then be unnecessary when we age into retirement.
So weird to see a fully new house being built with 0 isolation in the walls. Here in Belgium there is at least 10cm of PU foam board isolation in there. Saves tons on heating and cooling.
Western North Carolina: Insulated from severe cold by the Appalachians.
You guys use bricks for house?
He CLEARLY says "insolators" @ 18:06 , maybe watch more than two minutes before you start judging? In another scene, later in the video, you can actually SEE the insolation. Enjoy all those cancerous gasses of your PU foam, which by the way, is pumped full of other cancer causing agents to keep it from easily bursting into flames. You do you.
@@LGski964 Calm down my guy. It's such a minor detail I have missed it, while IMO it is a very important part of a house.
PU foam is perfectly safe by the way as long as you are not eating it or spraying it on the walls without protection. We use large, premade blocks of it, completely inert.
No idea why you are so hostile.
@@I_killed_that_beard_guy Both bricks and wood houses are built here. Should still put in isolation.
Outstanding work both on the house and on the video. Pro level production! 👌👍
Truly remarkable build way above and beyond the call of duty it turned out just totally awesome 🤔🤔🧐🧐👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you! You guys are Awesome!
As a 2nd year roof carpentry apprentice i can say that i have actually learnt quite a bit from this video, i can also say that never in my nearly 2 years of being a carpenter i can say ive never seen a LvL ridge before which is actually quite cool.
Thank you guys and good job on the nice house :)
This was awesome! would take custom builder in my area 9 months for this for sure. Clearly you save a lot of money and time (that im. sure you pass on to client) being able to do a lot of the items yourselves, like painting, installing appliances (which some places will not warranty items), and custom railings! nice work!
those bathrooms with the tiles look great. love it.
Damn Jamie is a BOSS coming up the mountain like that with a loaded trailer and overhang!
Amazing! Wonder how difficult it's going to be for the homeowners to get there in the winter with ice and snow on the road!
That guy had a metal hand at 24:40! Thats awesome! Great build and content!!
This is brilliant. I love it. Greetings from Romania!
before you built was there an engineering assessment of the earth that you got before picking this site to make sure its safe to building and avoid the foundation sliding? cheers looks great
I'm here!
LOVED watching this !. I can't believe thd guy doing the commentary is also one of the builders too - he didn't grunt or swear once !! (Lol !) Seriously, I'm so jealous of whoever moving into this house, it's gorgeous- and those views !!. Seems like a great group of guys to work with and hopefully thd house has caught some of the decent, humorous vibes !
It’s a gorgeous house in such a beautiful place.❤
Excluding land and utilities, what does it cost to build, or get a house built, like this?
8 million
It always amazes me when I see houses being built in the USA. Where I live, its a completely different process. We don't use wood at all. All the walls are made out of concrete blocks (basement walls are generally a concrete pour wall), and all the floors/slabs are concrete pour as well. I don't know why the two processes are completely different. But I was wondering, which process is more expensive and which one is more durable? I'm guessing our process with all that concrete but I might be wrong. Is our process an overkill?
I live in a neighborhood of 100yo homes built from local redwood lumber to house workers for a local cement plant that has since shut down. Ironically the concrete footings have aged worse than the wooden framing in many homes here. The one exception being areas that got wet and were then compromised by termites that consume the wooden framing and sheathing.
@Mazinblaster Z Here in Europe many people have houses that are several hundreds of years old... The house my parents live in was built in 1912 and survived 2 world wars. Our own house was built in 1961.
Most pre-1950 houses will have wooden floors/ceilings though. Newer ones will generally have concrete for every floor.
In Sweden many houses are still built out of wood, only exception is the foundation of course. There are many wooden houses in Sweden that are 200-400 years old.
Great tradesman ,Your foundation and basement work nails it
Beautiful Home! Great Job!
Rookie Question here: when you glue the floor down, doesn’t that ruin the subfloor when you have to eventually change the floor?
Definitely an amateur question because this is the building brothers, not the remodeling brothers. 👊
@@jaxturner7288 No question is stupid, that's how everyone learns. It will definitely be difficult to remove the flooring if they decide to change it later on. Once it's glued, you're pretty much committed to it. It's even worse when glued down to a concrete slab, in this case you're have to grind the glue residue off and it can look like Ground Zero. It does have a thin layer of real wood on its surface so it can usually be sanded at some point to bring back the beauty if it wears. Good luck with your project.
@@justrightPD first of all nobody said anything was stupid until you showed up. On top of that, the issues you mentioned are obviously the original posters same concerns, and beyond that, guess what my reason was for saying they were builders and not remodelers?
Same list of concerns dude, catch up and stop putting words in people’s mouth especially when you’re on the same team. I never said any question was stupid and I think my response told the original poster his concerns were valid from a remodeling perspective but these guys are more concerned with building it now and less about the complications of renovations later.
Builders, not remodelers.
Get it?
Geez
@@jaxturner7288 Geez is right. The guy asked a question, I answered it for him. End of story, you shouldn’t be triggered so easily.
@@johnlebzelter4208 Yep, that makes total sense now. I was just trying to answer the guy’s question. Thanks for the insight.
I’m closing in on my retirement and I’d like to move from Minnesota to a warmer climate, but the prices on homes are stupidly ridiculous and Mortgage prices has been skyrocketing on a roll(currently over 7%) do I just invest my spare cash into stock and wait for a housing crash or should I go ahead to buy a home anyways
Most people are unable to handle a fall since they are accustomed to bull markets, but if you know where to look and how to get around, you can profit handsomely. It depends on your entry and exit strategy.
One of the primary reasons I utilise a portfolio coach to oversee my daily investing decisions is that their whole skill set is cantered on trading long and short at the same time, utilising profit-oriented techniques and minimising risk as a hedge against unforeseen events.
@@jamesvigor6409
Yeah, I have total faith in a financial advisor who is certified by the US SEC. In fact, I'm not sure whether I'm allowed to disclose this, but I'd suggest checking up "Julie Anne Hoover" because she was a huge issue in 2020. She is my mentor in addition to managing my investments.
Good to see people still build houses with that much care and attention to detail.
I've done hundreds of floors in special walnut and it too is my favorite stain color!!
What is it with American builds and so much wood inside the building?
That’s what we have a lot of here
@@PerkinsBuilderBrothers seems about 40 years outdated.
Just remember guys, this isn’t a house building tutorial.
Bullcrap
Wat?
不思議的建築工藝
一生若能擁有一棟這麽美侖美煥的木屋，於願足矣。
讚嘆你們的設計師及工藝團隊。
Dear bro I m a welder fabricator i really liked video u guys made and I really enjoyed and wished I was there with u all
this is absoulty the best home building video I have ever seen, and I have seen many... 6 stars to these guys.......
Really nice work. Love the southern pine joists. Gotta love cordless nail guns and saws. Props from Utah
Dude i Absolutely love watching the Build ...
The Double Square screw is used by the RV/Trailer industry. It is a security measure to prevent break-ins and theft.
Круто !!! Вы молодцы !!! Смотрел с удовольствием !!!
This was great ! Fast and fun to watch !
Imagine Building. I like it 😄
From India 🇮🇳
I never realized it was this much work to build a house. It makes me appreciate my house more
Beautiful! Thanks for detailed and pleasant explanations.
God bless
Watching this has made me want to be a Carpenter in the US. I already am in England, but my line of work feels more 'Every man for himself', this looks like far more focus on teamwork, and far more enjoyable...
I just read the other comments after I made my comments. Everyone loved the video and detailed narration
this inspires me to continue my education on to being an architec and a builder
