Building a House: Construction Steps - Framing the Roof & Installing Shingles

We are building a house, and in this video we are framing the roof, covering it with sheathing, installing asphalt shingles and flat roofing the canopy. We are continuing the on-site construction process of building our custom home as we show you how we stack and lift the roof trusses by carefully maneuvering around trees and hydro polls, organize the trusses, frame the roof and skylight, apply the sheathing and install the shingles.
Previously on our new home build, we completed the excavation, forming & pouring the concrete foundation walls, waterproofing, back filling the foundation, installing the steel beams, and completing the framing for our main and second floors - make sure to catch those episodes if you want to get up to speed. We are now continuing to frame the roof in our new construction home and it’s amazing how quickly the design of the house takes shape - it’s so rewarding and gratifying to see our creation coming to life!
Subscribe to our channel to follow along our journey as we design and build our second Dream Home! We are actually building right across the street from our first custom home, and the new home is only going to get better! Follow along as we share everything on how to build a house - including costs to build a house, how to design floor plans, construction process and steps, interior design decisions, selecting finishes, buying land and real estate considerations, and so much more!
Follow us on Instagram where we also provide snapshots of the day-to-day house construction process and ask for your input in design decisions for our new home: / wethewolfmans

Great job to both of you. 2 Thumbs up. I would love to know a bit more detail on cost breakdown and steps in order for the build.

[@WeTheWolfmans]

Thank you for your kind words! We have another video that goes into a bit more detail on the costs to build and how to save money: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pYW6c5qOi6h0jsk If you want more details on ways to structure the cost of the build when working with a builder and examples of what costs would be included/excluded , we’ve also created a free Guide where we walk you through the top questions to ask a home builder so you could select the right one and save yourself time, money and stress - download it here: bit.ly/2zqfyID We haven’t done a comprehensive video yet that covers the full end-to-end stages of the build, but we will plan to create one! For now, we are uploading our progress in chronological order so if you follow along you will see that we cover each stage of the build (so far up until the drywall phase). Stay tuned for more!

Great vlogs. I was wondering if you can share the breakdown of the costs for your project.

[@WeTheWolfmans]

Thanks for reaching out. WE do have a video where we break down some of the higher level costs. In order to get into trade by trade costs, we didn't think it would be a helpful video as there are so many variables that go into the costs of each trade.

One thing I never fully understood is why people spend tons of money on a luxury home like this and end up putting crappy shingles in a roof instead of something more fancy such as metal roof. Anyway thanks for these videos, you guys are awesome!
