You're doing a great job with your channel. Hope this video goes out and you get a lot more subscribers. Suggestion.... You might want to wait until you have more subscribers before you do the members aspect. The more subscribers might give you the opportunity to do more flips . Have you considered doing your vacations together and just shutting down the business for a week if possible? Thank you for another great video . Hope a lot more viewers will subscribe and see how talented and knowledgeable you are.

I am definitely leaning away from the memberships for a while. It would be nice to be able to shut the company down for a week and take the vacations that way, with how busy we are lately though, it seems at least somebody needs to be on sight. It is a good option that may work in the future. Thanks for the comment!

Even from this video just how different it is to what it is now (can't wait for yall to see how much further along it is). its a real blast from the past and nice to have somewhere to see our progress on this massive addition and remodel. Much love and hope yall keep enjoying the videos. make sure to check out previous videos to see the crazy transformation of this place.

To be precise, the actual code 2023 NEC 300.14 "At least 6 inches of free conductor, measured from the point in the box where it emerges from its raceway or cable sheath, shall be left at each outlet, junction". So it's 6" from the end of the Romex sheath, which should penetrate at least 1/4" inside the box, 314.17(B)(2) "Where cable assemblies with NM sheaths are used, the sheath shall extend not less than 1/4" inside the box and 1/4" beyond the end of any cable clamp."

There is layers and one soft spot by a skylight.

Quite simple really. The Ridge would be 12ft. {Building Length - Building Width}

The only time this would change is if you were doing a custom hip where the perpendicular sides are going to have different pitches, which is not typical for standard hip roofs.

@RCHBuilders 2 ай бұрын
It seems most people in our area do not install basements correctly. People seem to not no how to keep them from leaking around here. They only pour every 4th column with concrete, don't use the sealant on the outside, and then slope all the yard towards the house. Then they seal the block on the inside and wonder why it leaks. LOL

Because I don't know... Why is crushed rock put under concrete? Why not encapsulate the pipes in concrete?
@RCHBuilders 2 ай бұрын
There can be multiple reasons, depending on the area, but the main reason here is to create another drainage plain under the vapor barrier as an added protection from moisture. It also creates a more stable base under the concrete to help add in keeping the concrete from cracking due to the movement of the soil.
@user-vw9jb6nq9j 2 ай бұрын
no rebar going though the blocks... yikes one good rainstorm and your walls are caving in buddy. from a landscaper, foundations sink and shift within the first 2years. first row should always have stabilizing rebar pushed upto 3ft in the ground, packed with dirt sand, from the 4th row down to the first row you need to pound rebar into that before the concrete pour, then you should have something stable*
@RCHBuilders 2 ай бұрын
Thanks for your comment. If you go back and watch the previous videos, you will see that there is rebar in every other cell of the cinder blocks. Also, in the video where we install the rebar, you will see how we are bending a 3 foot rebar anchor into the solid 12"x24" footer that is poured at the base. That is the better footing for this type of home where we are located.

Glad you enjoyed the video. Gumbo and Red Clay are both pretty similar except that Gumbo tends to dry out a little finer. For this I would probably dig a footer about 24"x24" and 18" deep. It would take approximately 9=80lb bags of concrete or 12=60lb bags. Depending on how hard the ground ends up being as you dig down, 12" deep maybe fine.

Excellent video ,very informative. You didn't mention why you went from a 20 amp to a 15 amp receptacle? Was this a #12 wire 20amp circuit? Maybe i missed it , but your pigtail should be the same size as the other wire. You can use the ears on the receptacle to shim or change the angle of the receptacle. It's an excellent video. I enjoyed the tips. Many people don't pigtail, & and have seen many problems from this.
@RCHBuilders 3 ай бұрын
Thanks for watching. 2 of the wires in the location were 12/2 while the other was a 14/2. The circuit is a 15amp circuit , but code does also allow for a 15amp receptacle to be used on a 20amp circuit. This is due to the fact that a 20amp appliance cannot be plugged into a 15amp receptacle. I have used the ears before, but feel like I get longer lasting and better end results with the spring option.
