Building a Master Suite Addition over the Garage /// Dream Home Renovation Ep. 7

Building an Addition Over Your Garage can be a little scary but not impossible. We tackled this build because we wanted to add an extra bedroom upstairs and putting an addition over the garage was the clear choice to gain square footage without changing the footprint of the house. Follow us on this journey as we renovate our entire house and have fun doing it.

Oh boy, exciting and a bit stressful all at the same time...but it looks great as you progress! I sort of felt your pain with the flood, but there is always a silver lining...no more mold! You know it's all going to be so special when it's done!

I love seeing the EMT instead of Romex for the electrical. If you have rodents eating into that, then you'd have quite a significant issue. From what I could see, it looks like your electricians did some neat work.

All the flooding come from rain? I have had my house flood twice. Both times from internal house water. The first flood displaced me for 3 months while we rebuilt the house. It was so heartbreaking. I know the feeling of wanting to cry and not wanting to cry. Its a killer house build Bart!

Sorry about the damage from the flooding i suppose it was a blessing in disguise as you wouldn't have known about all the Mold Spores knocking around your shop, at least your shop has been sprayed now and will look ten times better when you have finished the shop off. Your new home? looks great those fellas work their socks off doing that roof and knocking the walls down, i didn't know that they could work so fast even in speed up mode, great job guys. It's a pity you don't have any allotments near to where you live as any wood and that glass the people who grow Fruit and Veg would have used the wood and the glass no problems. Pity that, i was wishing that i lived near you when you said everything was getting dumped, i would have taken the lot off your hands. If it's possible maybe not, is there any chance of a cost breakdown, i would love to know how much the wood, window frames, everything on the roof and even the builders cost, right down to the cost of hiring the diggers and the containers for your tools, cheeky i know. Sorry for the long comment i got carried away. Take Care. Barry (UK)

Hey Barry we were thinking of doing a entire cost breakdown after the project was done. So stay tuned for that later in the year

@Zeroscifer 3 ай бұрын

While i get your point about not donating the windows there are other uses than using it in a building again. Like myself I would kill to have someone let me have a window of that size for the solar heater I am building. No codes on this just need the glass and large panel costs a lot.

@@Zeroscifer that’s a good idea. I really like the look of antiqued mirror glass. Whether it’s inside the house somewhere or part of a garden feature that could look really cool.

I had tarped the roof and about 4a.m. my daughter woke me up and said it was raining in her room . So for the next week it rained , my osb subfloor were covered with 4 " of water so I had to go and drill holes to drain the water , luckily they weren't to badly damaged

@buildingmodern 4 ай бұрын

Love the video - thanks for sharing! If you don't mind us asking, how did the rain get in? It looks like it was tarped in the video. We have a similar project coming up and are wondering if there's more we should do to help make sure rain can't get in when removing/changing out a roof over a finished basement. Thanks!

Are bricks really so expensive and cumbersome to lay that adding an extra floors worth of walls is so bad compared to wood? It's no wonder that wildfires so often completely decimate residential zones with such a preference for wood building materials. With all brick walls you might lose the roof and the floor joists in a fire, but at least you would still have sturdy walls to build back with.

@neonpcmsplus 3 ай бұрын

What is the reason for the new rafters being plumb cut at the outside edge of the walls and tail extensions being sistered on to create the overhang? Was the material simply not long enough to make it in one run or was this done for another reason?

Well there is some good here. You did it on your own home so you can only blame yourself. The flooding was completely preventable but you onow what you did so you can be better 9n a customers house.

Dang that sucks whomever should of dried in that roof knowing that there was a finished basement and a garage under it that would be damaged if water came in. I own a commercial roofing company and I would of killed my guys if they didn't dry that roof in every night. I felt absolutely horrible for you seeing all that damage. I'm not sure where your located but if you were one of my neighbors I would of sent you a dozen guys to help clean up and we would of done your roof at no cost so you would of had the money to cover the unexpected damage. That's just what neighbors do for each other.

Granted, the architectural style was dated. Still, it was a beautiful style. If you didn't like it, why didn't you just sell the house and build something more to your liking? More to the point, why did you buy it in the first place? Having a bedroom over a garage does not seem wise. Batteries explode without warning. Electric cars with lithium batteries are especially bad. No, thank you. I'll sleep at the opposite end of the house from the garage.
