If you have ever wanted to build a custom home, spec home, are in the process of building or just curious what the process is like and what goes into it then this video is for you!
This video is so informational and an eye opener for sure so thank you for making it and I would love a part 2, 3,, etc please!
You brought up so many things that I have never thought of before or experienced before.❤❤❤
Thank you Ashley... HAPPY WEDNESDAY. .. HUMP DAYYYY
You are so detail oriented that this video can be used as a how to manual. You should write an e book.
Well thank you!
I work for a drywall company that also paints new construction (including custom builds). The reason for the flat paint is due to the house settling over time. If you paint with eggshell during the build, you will see a difference after your one year touch up. If you use flat during the build, paint touch ups will look more consistent. Then you can work something out to repaint in eggshell over time. Eggshell and satin are very hard sheens to “match” during touch ups.
Even the flat doesn’t match up. Our new build one year nail pop fix, the paint looked like a quilt patch. I ended up having them paint the entire wall for each one that needed patched. It was a nightmare.
@@brandia9479 it’s because it came from a different dye lot having been created probably over a year after the original paint. Truly custom builders may have an option in the contract to repaint in eggshell or satin after the house settles and repairs are made. That comes with a higher cost but that’s the only other option with new builds.
Yes! I was gonna say this, always flat! You can touch up! I painted my whole house with eggshell, tried to touch up a month later with the same can and you could see it! The next time I repainted the whole house flat still touching up over two years later and it’s invisible!
Would love to see a yearly “what I would do differently” video, as you live in your home! Outlet placements, light placements, flooring types, what you wish you had, what you wish you didn’t have, what you can change easily after you move in and what you can’t. Nothing is perfect but it’s interesting to hear :) what people choose vs does it end up being practical or right for their family in the long run. the idea of “this is great but…” then people can decide for themselves if they would want it based on their needs! :)
I can always count on you to cheer me up on chemo day!
I worked for a contractor who built custom homes for over 30 years. It’s much easier, as you say, to make changes or corrections earlier rather than later. Also never be afraid to ask questions. The builder and his crew forget as a homeowner you don’t know some of the things they just take for granite. If you don’t ask they often assume you already know. Building a house is stressful, the more you can educate yourself the better. So glad you’re enjoying you new HOME and are willing to share the experience. God Bless to you and your family! 😊
Oh my goodness! Every bit of this is so true!! We are experiencing everything you pointed out in this video! We are 3 months in and have measured and measured and measured some more. And thankfully, we have caught things that would have been a major problem later. I am so exited to live in my new home with my beautiful mountain view, but I'm not sure I would ever want to do this again :)
Good luck with your new build!
Love those tips! Listen to Ashley, I own a small home decorating store where we sell Benjamin Moore paint and flooring. You are spot on, pick darker grout, I always tell my customers that because it does go lighter. We sell , 90% of the time, eggshell finish for the walls and I have learned over the years flat paint looks wonderful but does not clean well. If the company does not have the flooring in stock, order a box or go to the website of the company and see what the flooring looks like in a room, they will have pictures and you can see if there are drastic color variations of that one sample . Most companies now have a room visualizer where you can take a picture of your room and apply the product you picked out in your room. This is a wonderful tool! Take everything home if you possibly can, the lighting will change everything, especially your paint color. The Paint colors that are on line are no where near the paint colors you actually get.
This was a great video. Ashley, I’d like to see you and Chase do a video about your expenses for the new build and how you tackled those as well.
So glad you liked it! Thanks for the advice and tips!
I'm glad you said that about the pocket doors because I love them so much and I tend to cave easy.
And you're right. It's your money that you're spending, so you definitely got to make sure everything is correct and how you like it.
So many good points. I think your best advice is to catch mistakes right away before it's too late. I missed that there wasn't a light above our kitchen sink and it's driving me crazy!
Great tips
Glad you like them!
This is so very helpful! We will be undergoing our first ever custom build next year. I’ve been planning and have watched your entire process! I love your style and videos!
Glad it was helpful! Good luck on your new build!
Wonderful video. Very informative
Hi Ashley, Thank you for the tips! And I would've done the same. There is something about doing things in an excellent way and as you said, that is your hardworking money being spent, so in my eyes, you had every right to be there every day. Can you please do a 2nd and or 3rd, however many videos it takes to share those tips because what you shared in this video is priceless? I feel like you started at the foundation and telling us the rooms will look smaller was such a gem of info, and now I would like it if you did a series, the same way you showed us the build all the way through. Now you need a series for "Tips when building a custom build", because I can tell, you have some valuable info!!!!! And we would be so grateful!!!!! Thanks again for being YOU and showing us perfection at work!!!! All glory to God!!!! ❤
I’m so glad you enjoyed this informative video! We will see how it performs on my channel and if it does well I can film another one.
@TilVacuumDoUsPart Thanks Ashley!
Thank you for the helpful tips god bless 🙏👍🤗🇿🇦
You’re welcome 😊 God bless!
I think some of the best advice you gave was to take pictures of your walls before the drywall. See where the studs are. See the pipes for plumbing and electrical wiring. We’ve referred back to our pictures multiple times. Love your home! 🏡 ❤
Great advice we also custom built in 2021 including designing the entire floorplan on graph paper. We measured everything from furniture to length of clothes to make sure everything fit exactly where we wanted it. Yes, it's overwhelming and a bit stressful and you HAVE to keep notes to help keep everything organized and on track. Funny how the size of everything looks so small until the drywall goes up then it all makes more sense. Yes mistakes will be made so expect that but in the end its all worth it. Best advice is taking pictures of everything we have used those pictures so many times as recently as this past weekend they are so helpful. Great job everything looks amazing. Now it's time to relax and make special memories!!!
So glad you enjoyed this! Have a great day!
Thanks for sharing your tips. Your building experience has helped us as we are currently in the drywall stage. If you ever expand this video, 2 things I think are important are: Changes cost money in that once you sign off on your plans, most builders will charge you a fee for each change order and that can add up…$350 for most builders in our area. See if your Builder uses an phone app. We receive weekly updates and photos from the building superintendent…with that info I go out almost daily to see if that’s happening and I reply accordingly. Last tip: when purchasing furniture, see if there is a delivery fee for each piece of furniture…some companies are charging you for each piece. We found a furniture store that allowed us to pay one delivery fee for any furniture purchased and added to that ticket. So, I went 3 times to that store and bought items to be delivered at the same time. Just wanted to share and thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge with us. Thanks, Ashley.
The best moment is when you look at your phone and see a notification that Ashley has uploaded 🤩Your videos can only be described as heavenly, from the music to all the beauty in your home, it’s just sublime. Watching your videos feels like home 🤍
Aww thank you so much!
You’re so right about the grout. I did not want a lighter grout that would look dirty all the time. I wanted a grey grout but my guy kept pushing for a tan… I gave in and thought maybe he knew better than I did and guess what… it lightened up and it’s exactly what I didn’t want. I should have trusted myself more. Lesson learned. Great tips in this video for any work or upgrades, not just building. Thanks!
That’s frustrating, I’m sorry
Listen to this lady! She knows what she's talking about! We have been in a build for well over a year and are just getting drywall. Watching these videos has been so helpful and as we've experienced most of the same setbacks or mistakes, I don't feel so alone. I've learned a lot of great tips that we already are or will be using. Thank you so much for sharing your journey to help us through ours! Your house is beautiful ❤
I’m so glad this was helpful! I hope your new build starts moving faster
Totally agree on the flat paint. So hard to clean.
Thanks for sharing! I've had 2 semi custom homes built, but never a full custom home. This vlog is very informative and extremely useful! Knowledge is power! Blessings! ❤️
Thank you so much Ashley !!
You are so welcome!
Thank you so much for your helpful house building tips, Ashley! We are getting ready to sell our house in Washington State and move to Arkansas and are going to custom build our house there as well. Please do another video with more tips! They are extremely helpful!!! Thanks.
Thank you Ashley for sharing your tips and information! Very helpful!
Love all your videos and all the tips and things to look out for. Wished we would have known 1/2 of what you shared. It definitely helps when someone has gone through the process. God bless you and your family.
I have zero desire to custom build my house, but I LOVE watching you go through the process. Our current home was previously custom built and we do mini- project changes. Maybe you could develop plans room by room and sell them? I’d buy. My brain is too old for the details you pay attention to. I love your thoughtful process.
So glad you enjoy these types of videos!
Thank you so much for sharing. Absolutely share any more tips you have!
Thanks Ashley, we are signing next week on our new build! I appreciate all these tips💜
You are so welcome! Good luck on your new build!
Custom home building is not for the faint of heart. I am so glad you know the builder and had a good experience
Great tips. I would never have thought of some of these things. Thanks for sharing your experiences.
Great job Miss Ashley. You & Chase really was on top of this. And it petty much paid off in the end for the most part.We all love your advice, and me personally would love for you and Chase to set down and do a looooong video on budget. From How, to Why, to How to make the best deccions, cause it makes a difference,. To how to save money when they are only a few dollars left.... I loves gril. Sending much love again from North Carolina.
A BIG Thank you for all your information on building!!!
Lots of helpful information Ashley! Funny story about foundation stage. My husband thought our cars weren’t going to fit in the garage of our last house because it looked so small. Mind you we had been in completed versions of that exact floor plan prior! 😂😂😂 It is very deceiving!
We custom built our home about 5 years ago. It is a wild ride. I agree with everything you said!!! Take pictures, you think you will remember but you don’t. Lol ❤
Yes so true! Thanks for watching!
We are at the framing part of our build and it's been so great following along with yours. In this video, I about made myself dizzy with how much head nodding I was doing! All of this is soooo true for what we have experienced so far!!!!
That is awesome! So glad it was relatable. Good luck on your build!
Fantastic job great information! For someone doing a custom build this is a must watch Thanks Ashley!
I’ll have my land paid off this year and will start the whole planning process next year so this video is perfect timing for me. Thank you!👏🏼
Yay that’s so exciting! Good luck!
Great information Ashley thank you so much!❤❤
Thanks for the grouting tip. My daughter is renovating her bathroom. Enjoy your new home. It’s beautiful 😊
Great advice! You should put all of this in an e-book to sell. I enjoy all your detailed videos.♥️
Since I was in elementary school, I have been designing houses. I enjoy watching all things home 🍁🛠
Me too!! Thanks for watching!
These are amazing tips! I would love more of your advice!
So glad you liked them!
Love this!! Would LOVE to see more!!❤
Thank you so much for sharing these tips!! I wouldn’t have thought of most of these!
Thank you for much for this video and all the other building ones. So informative. Research is so important and talking to your builder and trying to understand each other saves you headaches too. Also being prepared
Glad it was helpful!
Very good information!! We have built two houses now and yes you have to go everyday And watch everything. Good job!!!
Glad you enjoyed!
I’ve loved all your build vlogs thanks for taking the time to share ❤🎉
We redid our bathrooms ourselves. I can attest to the grout being lighter! It was WAY too light, so we got grout stain and fixed it. Thankfully it worked perfectly and I'm so happy with the results. Your house is beautiful!
Thanks for the grout tip... I will be choosing backsplash for next month for the kitchen ❤
Good luck!
@@TilVacuumDoUsPart Thanks 😁👍
Happy Wednesday Ashley!!!
Great tips definitely gotta have a lot of patience for custom builds
ALWAYS WATCHING FROM PHILIPPINES 🇵🇭 ❤❤❤
Thank you!
Great video and filled with a ton of important information. And done with kindness and grace. ❤
Thank you for this video...I used the idea of pictures...I used to print the picture that contains the design I want....this idea helped me a lot...👍🥰
Glad it was helpful!
Thank very good information getting ready to built 😮
Thanks Ashley for creating this video. A lot of great information. I can't believe people would tell you not to go to the site so often. Your spending thousands of dollars and you shouldn't be involved in the process to ensure things are going as planned/agreed to 😵💫. Anyway my take away is that you have to be extremely organized and detailed as things can get missed but also know that some things may not go as planned. Hopefully one day i will have the opportunity to build my dream home. For now I will just enjoy watching yours ❤️❤️❤️😁😁😁
Great tips and advice. Thank you for sharing your experience.
Glad it was helpful!
Outstanding presentation… immeasurably helpful!!!!
Glad it was helpful!
I would love to hear more 😊
Awesome tips and advise! Thanks for sharing such practical help!
Yes I totally agree we did a part custom build done changes upgrades bigger rooms I understand it's stressful.
Extremely helpful! God bless you and CONGRATULATIONS on your new beautiful home!!
Thank you so much! God bless!
Great advice ❤
Glad you think so!
More please!! These were so incredibly helpful! We're just starting the building process. :)
Good luck with your build!
Love this info. Very helpful.
Flat paint is terrible
Thank You!!! Very helpful!!!
Glad it helped! Thanks for watching!
Hey Ashley, awesome video! Alot of extremely useful information that will be very helpful to alot of people. Ypur the best. ❤
Thank you for all the info, very helpful, I'll be in the process in a few months❤
Good luck on your new build!
Thank you so much for all the tips you have shared with us and so in detailed. This video was very informative and helpful! I know you and your family are all enjoying y’all’s beautiful home! I wish y’all tons of joy and happiness! Thanks for sharing! Take Care! 😊🥰
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
@@TilVacuumDoUsPart 😊
You were so informative and clear. A lot of the things you mentioned I think people take for granted it not common sense because you mentioned it once. Like you said the builder and workers are people and we all can make mistakes.
The thing I heard loud and clear, know you’re style vision vibe, have lots of pictures of what you want, follow up at each step, and be nice it goes a long way.
You can have a multi million dollar build and stuff can still go wrong. Like you said, it’s your money it’s your home.
Be there Check in Follow up.
Thanks again
Do more of these videos 👍🏽
Thank you for this video!! We just broke ground and these tips are extremely helpful! I'm going to be putting all your tips and tricks to use. Our biggest challenge is that we're two and a half hours away from where we're building so I am kind of nervouse about that. I've also been struggling with our floor decision. After watching your video, I will be purchasing a box to ensure the floor we picked is the right one.
So glad it was helpful. Being that far away you definitely won’t get to check on it as often so hopefully your contractor can FaceTime you or send you videos and pics of the progress. Good luck on your build!
Great video!! Whew...lots to know!
This is such a helpful video!
Oh Wow I don’t know if you remember I told my husband and I are building a house in Florida. We want with Grande construction they are the worst. I don’t recommend to nobody. If I tell you we lived in our house for thirty two years. And decided to build the house. I wished I had seen this last year is would had been so helpful. I am living with my daughter since June. Listening to your videos will be very helpful out there whom is building their dream home. And one more things I and praying that the house will be ready end of August.
Thank you so much great info and congrats again!!
You are so welcome!
Each morning is the open door to a new world - new vistas, new aims, new plans, new things…Wednesday morning is no less.
Happy Wednesday!
Good morning all happy Wednesday morning and I loved your vlogs and you are amazing Supporter and I'm proud of you and I enjoy your channel
Good morning, thank you so much for the kind words!
@@TilVacuumDoUsPart your welcome sending you hugs ❤️ 🤗
More tips please! This was very helpful!
So glad you liked it
Thank you for this video, you gave great advice ❤. I hope to do a custom build in the future!!
I was in the market for a semi-custom home last year but was so desperate to move (I adopted a dog), that I ended up buying a model home. My new home is stunning but looking at the spec sheet, I cringe that it has $200k in just the upgrades 😳
I'm not building nor intend to but this was so interesting and I'd like to hear more. MaCenna here on YT has several videos on her doing her own renovations plus podcasts with her Mom in what to do when building a home from scratch...her Mom and Dad have built several homes from scratch and they also have tips. Yours are more in depth and I think would be so useful to those designing and building...so another home building tips video would be useful and to me so interesting 💜💙💚💛🧡
Hi Ashley!! Did you ever share your custom stain details? As well as the top coat you used? I LOVE the color of your cabinets and doors and would love to look into using it for my home!
I have a photo of it over on IG in a highlight bubble if you are needing it!
Your home tour was spectacular. Your video on building a custom home and the process was amazing and gave me so many different perspectives on what I need to think about moving forward. Your home looks amazing everything just flows so nicely. I meant to ask what type of counter tops do you have I know it’s quartz but what’s the name of it where did you purchase it? I watch all your videos I can’t tell if it has any veining in it if so what colors I know it’s primarily white I think. You make everything look easy and effortless, I hope my build will look half as good as yours. I thought I would enjoy this custom build process but it’s A LOT!
Lol.
Thank you so much! It’s called Stella Gold and we got it from a local granite and stone company
I LOVE everything about your house!! Is there a place to buy the base house plan you used?
Great info video!
Glad it was helpful!
I've never built a home and most likely never will at 62 but this is great information!! Thank you.
Hi Ashley! ❤
Hi Janie!
Hi 👋🏼 very informative video and excellent on keeping your notes. We also custom built our house last year and it is very stressful. For us what was going to take 6 to 8 months, took 15 months. We live in Florida and a hurricane hit us during the building, also the main electrical line to the house was broken and the electric company was focused on those houses that were damaged during the hurricane and didn’t have power. So we had to wait 3 and a half months for them to run a new line. During the process we were able to choose white windows like we wanted and also the eggshell paint 👌🏽 It was a long process but all worth it. We got a brand new house on an almost 3 acres land close to my family 😃 Congrats on your new home.
Wow I’m so sorry you had to wait so long. But so happy it was worth it!
I am building a home MUCH LIKE YOUR HOME! and I would loveee more custom building dos n don’t or more tips on choosing things for the new modern farmhouse !, please consider it 😂
Yes, the grout had me freaking out the other day. They delivered the wrong stone the first round, so the 3 sides of the house were bricked, and we had to wait a couple weeks for the correct stone to be delivered before they could stone and brick the front of the house. They did stone one day and came back for 2 more days in a row to finish the brick. We went to see it that evening after they completed it and the top half of the house had a different shade of grout than the bottom where the stone began and my heart sunk and I was in a pouty mood after that. It was noticeable on the porch, it truly looked like they used the wrong color, the transition looked awful. But...Just went by there again yesterday and it all matches now and I am so relieved. My anxiety is on high just from this semi custom build, I can only imagine when we finally get to a point where we can buy our dream land and build a barndo fully custom. We are so close to the blue tape stage....woot woot!!
Thanks for this video… very helpful! “Put your dukes up” for pocket doors 🤣🤣 love it! Can you please link your floors? How many square feet is your actual house? Do you only prefer ranch style vs two story? I agree with eggshell paint. What type of soap do you recommend for cleaning eggshell walls?
You made it through! Lol. Thanks for the video. Hope you have a great week.
Thanks, you too!
Would you make a video or list of each of the specific paint colors, cabinet colors, countertops, etc. of your selection process in your house? Thanks
Great tips and good advice. I’m never going to build a home I got the patience. it’s a wonder you did not pull your hair out. I would say the same thing about Chase but he ain’t got no hair. He’s practically bald and he is still young. You have a blessed Wednesday afternoon.👍👍❤
It can be very stressful for sure, it’s not for the faint of heart! Thanks for watching!
YESSSSS! EGGSHELL PAINT. I HATE FLAT PAINT.
Hi Ashley, we are building now and just had to pick out our fireplace insert. I know nothing about fireplaces. We are doing wood burning. I had no clue what they were talking about at the store. Building is overwhelming. I think there should be a class to educate you before you go into a custom build lol
Yes it can be very confusing with all the decisions during building! Hang in there and you can do it!
🎉love your amazing new 🏡. Could you tell us the details about your floor? Like brand, color…😊
Thank you! They are LVP floors and the brand is Shaw Floors. Color and style is Alabaster Pantheon HD +
@@TilVacuumDoUsPart thank you for that info. 👍👍
Hello Ashley, we are wanting to update our kitchen and I am taking inspiration from your style and new home. I thoroughly Love your style and somehow want to change our current oak cabinets, keeping the lowers oak and tops painted white/cream, to your modern organic style. With that I would Love the name and style of both your backsplash tile as well as your countertop. I/we would So So appreciate a response back. This has been tough figuring out. Thank You both Ashley and Chad!
❤❤❤❤❤❤
I found you just a couple of weeks ago--grateful I did. We, too, are slogging through a custom build in Texas. Oh my gosh, I've been so grateful to see someone who actually JUST finished a home and has gone through (sort of) what we have in being told we'd be moved in this spring, then summer, than August, and here we are with drywall laying on the floor of the home for 3 weeks, no passed inspections, plumbers that don't show up and I am beyond stressed. Wanted to know what your philosophy was on drains in showers--did you feel using "camoflauge" drains was the way to go or to make them a feature? Also, I'm struggling to pick square or round. Would you be able to tell me where you got those beautiful round wooden "ball" mirrors? I love the integration of some wood other than just matte black and brushed gold which is so trendy now. I want to incorporate some wood elements in our home. Thank you and from one, Dave Ramsey gal to another, you guys have done amazing! Thanks for these videos. LOVE THEM.
Thank you so much and I’m sorry your build has been a nightmare so far 😔. We got the black mirrors with the ball features from Kirklands. The big entryway wood mirror is from Mathis Home. For our shower drain we just did the basic round drain. I hope things start moving for you soon!
Video idea (if you don’t already have a similar vid)
A video on things you need or should replace when moving….. like a revamp to start fresh at a new house?
Good idea!
