Building A Tiny House From Start To Finish!

Building our tiny house on wheels together with the team from Tiny House Chattanooga in Tennessee was an amazing experience. To find out more information, including the cost and details on the products we used visit our website: www.livingbigin...
We were rushing to get the home complete so we could be on the road for some tiny house festivals around America and so the entire build was done from start to finish in only 21 days!

Tiny House Chattanooga (www.tinyhousech...) were amazing. Not only did the team pull together to get the home finished to an amazingly high standard, they also allowed me to get stuck into the build with them and I was able to learn an incredible amount about tiny house building in the process.
The home was constructed on a trailer from Tiny House Foundations (www.tinyhousefo...). We follow the whole build process of this tiny house, from preparing the tiny house trailer and erecting the Volstrukt steel frame (www.volstrukt.com/) right the way through the completed home.

"Bryce can be a little bit of a diva" My favorite line ever XD

[@ellenmcintyre1247]

Hmmm. IMO, I took away that, with this remark, that the builder(Mike) was disrespectful of the client (Bryce). I'm pretty sure one of the worst things a man can call another man is a "prima donna"... Said with a straight face...Mike did try to recover face a bit, but sorry, pretty nasty to my ear. Bryce is an actor - not a construction person. I admire the fact that a person of little to no experience (he admitted) showed up, was teachable, and worked this hard. I would not give any business to a person who spoke like this about a client, on camera, for eternity. The person cutting the check (unless Bryce got this house for a huge discount, for promoting these mens' businesses) gets a better attitude, no matter what. At any time during the association. Just my opinion, as someone who has worked with the public for 30+ years. If it was not made clear to Bryce the amount of time needed for the job, whose responsibility was that? Pretty sure the person who owns the business/has experience should've made it clear how much time was required. Left a bad taste in my mouth, obviously.

[@TheMbeau92]

@@ellenmcintyre1247 I disagree. They have a great relationship, and Mike was being facetious. Especially at the end, you can see they appreciated working together. But you're entitled to your opinion.

Ellen McIntyre They’re friends, and Mike knew he was saying something Brice would watch...or maybe he was there behind the scenes. Haha!!!

[@JJoy-bk8yr]

@@ellenmcintyre1247 Bryce is an actor with TV show experience, and he is the director, producer and editor. He obviously was not offended or he would not have included that clip in the video he edited himself. It is more than likely Bryce himself came up with the "diva" line and directed the builder to say it. He may have deliberately amplified the drama to spice up a possibly dry technical subject. That's not to say it was false; but maybe not the word the builder would use on his own. The builder did express a lot of appreciation for and camaraderie with Bryce. I'm sure they are on good terms with each other and imho we should be happy with both of them - each man knows his own field of expertise.

I really like and appreciate the honesty of the challenges that were encountered and had to be worked through, from the pickiness regarding details, to things one didn't know or wasn't aware of prior to installing/building. Having the details of the build beyond all the finished tiny house tours is extremely helpful to realize the reality of what is required.

[@dejayrezme8617]

You should check out the "showerloop" an open source system to recycle your shower water by putting it through a filter. So it saves energy AND water. This MIGHT make off grid tiny house showers using only solar power possible (I haven't done the math). The guy who done this also done the calculations to see the water is actually cleaned and sterilized thoroughly enough. This idea should really get some more exposure.

I never thought I'd see a tiny home this small that I could see living in myself, but yours is perfect, both functional and pleasing to the eye.

The plan is to travel North America in this tiny house when I return later this year. Right now I'm back home in New Zealand, but will be back in America for the summer and plan to do an epic road trip with the home. We hope to be able to return to North America every year to do some travels and explore more of the continent so this tiny house will be a home base for our travels.

Living Big In A Tiny House that's awesome. If you make your way to Saskatoon Saskatchewan Canada, I'll gladly buy you a local beverage. There is a tiny home community here which is working on getting regulations changed to allow tiny houses.

[@dnllmaurer1]

Your acting talents are well suited to your show. Imo each episode is a mini documentary film. I've learned lots watching & I have a suggestion. Since your only storage is in cabinets & under bed, it might be practical to use your shower as a part time closet. With limited water supply your showering will be brief. You could add a removable or collapsible double hung bar. Place a removable tray on floor for boots & shoes. When you need the shower, momentarily move clothes to top of bed. Thanks for all you do. Wishing you abundant Blessings!

I had to watch it for the second time, because it's so beautiful!!!! I fully understand, how you must have felt during the building process. To be able to be part in building it, makes you come to know it, take it as your home. I always worked in my rented homes all over the last years - flooring, painting, designing things for them and of course changing my mobile home - built a seprate toilett, covered with a big cushion top, so nobody can see, it's the toilett 😉 put another floor in, changed the cupboards....It make me feel satisfied and homy. Have fun with your wonderful tiny home!!!

[@robthewaywardwoodworker9956]

It was really great to see that you got in on part of the creation of this home. I like to have folks involved, even if it's very limited, so that they can have pride in ownership. You're a good fellow for doing that, even if you are a diva. LOL The build looks fantastic and is surely an inspiration for other folks to work toward whatever dream they may be pursuing. Looking forward to your tales of the road to come. Cheers.

Thanks so much! It was so important for me to be involved in the construction for that exact reason! Plus, it was a great opportunity to learn some really valuable skills that will be with me for life. I hope to continue to up-skill so that in the future I'm able to do more projects myself.

[@deborahlewis2792]

Fantastic and a wonderful use of space. Love the bathroom and loo as one enters the tiny...and then through to the kitchen area. The ONLY thing I would change for personal reasons is that I'd ask for the bed area to be able to be a couch/table area which would change into a bed so that I could have both options available. People want to pop in then we can chill in that area and not just have to sit on the bed...but as mentioned, that is just a personal preference. Awesome tiny indeed. Beautifully built with professional people who know what constitutes a good tiny.

[@Frantic618]

The website says that the average price is about $50,000. New trailer, metal frame... and oriented strand board (OSB). Many builders wouldn't use it for their own homes, but they will use it in yours. Some OSB does come with a water resistant covering painted on. Any place you break the surface seal (cutting or drilling) creates a new edge that welcomes moisture; and it swells when it gets wet, but that swollen edge doesn't shrink when it finally dries (and it takes a lot longer to dry than plywood). Also, it's heavier than plywood. Personally, I'll pass on OSB.

[@SarahQMalone]

[@googflunky5626]

It's a great build and lots of thought went into it. The Zip System is great. The Rockwool insulation is great. The extensively air sealing is also great. Sadly, the steel wall studs are not so great. By choosing such a highly conductive material, you've basically reduced the R-value of your walls by 2/3. That's not a typo. Despite all your effort, that thing is going to be cooooold. You'd have done better with an outer layer of foam insulation, but steel studs are still not a good building material. They aren't even approved for load-bearing walls around here. Hope your results are better than the science would suggest.

[@sietuuba]

Yeah, all that insulation work is for naught except maybe for altering the surface temperature of the wall at each "insulated" spot -- but that is no comfort and would only be evident in a thermal camera photograph. This wall assembly cannot perform in any demanding climate zone. ALL control layers need to be continuous - the roof for water, the air barrier, the insulation, and the weather resist barrier under the ventilated facade if the wall has one. That floor has the same problem, there's no point in jamming in insulation between the floor joists if all that continuous steel of the trailer remains in contact with both the great outdoors and the inside, just under the floor sheathing of the heated volume. You have to build up from a continuous layer of insulation, not one broken up by cold bridges that will be just under your toes. :( It saddens me to see these things happen - there's information out there but as luck would have it, some of the crucially important bits for energy efficiency are still not common knowledge even among the professionals.

[@tylerasmith52]

Any idea on the weight of the house Bryce? This is hands down the best 16 foot TH I could imagine.

[@lucd9080]

4 ton

[@heatherwatson8273]

Well done Bryce it looks beautiful. I love how you did the finishing bits and pieces like your friend doing the Paua Shell Inlays, just beautiful.

April Fools Video Idea: Tour the Palace of Versailles. Act like it's a tiny home.

[@alexrains1893]

wow! I really love the layout of this dining hall, SUCH an efficient use of space.

[@badmotorpetey]

The ballroom is a nice feature as well!

[@med9099]

[@angeladawn805]

I laughed waaay too hard than I'd care to admit!!

[@R1981L]

Bahahaha yes!

I absolutely LOVE your new Tiny House!! I think that y'all did a fantastic job designing a house that is truly going to be mobile. I'm still in the design phase of my own Tiny House and you have given me a lot of new ideas to consider. I've also been trying to decide what builder to use and with this video, I really think I'm going to go with Chattanooga. I hope y'all love your new home and I really hope you fall in love with my country. There is so much beauty to be seen and experienced here in the U.S. I grew up on the Gulf Coast and hope you go down to Pensacola, FL to see the whitest sands in the world (Pensacola Beach sand is made of quartz crystal which is why its so white and fine), catch a show from the U.S. Navy's Blue Angels, and you must try a drink called the Bushwacker as its amazing. Then, take the scenic route along the coast to New Orleans and pig out on delicious Cajun food! I look forward to new videos and wish y'all a safe journey!

Thank-you Mike!

[@margaretjames4589]

'Thankyou Bryce really liked watching this Tiny House 'build...great job..would recommend this video build for viewing..👍

[@Tsiri09]

This is a low of work, but the end results is a home, not just a house.

[@livingbig]

Beautifully said. This home is an absolute treasure.

[@livingauthenticallyonmyownterm]

Bryce, I'm so happy for you brother. She is GORGEOUS !!!

[@cavia99]

Well done! Always find your videos fascinating. Wanted to recommend a unique book - an oldie but goodie - on designing space, in case you are not familiar with it: A Pattern Language by Christopher Alexander et al.

[@soumeyaredjil7764]

Great video content! Apologies for butting in, I would appreciate your opinion. Have you thought about - *WoodBlueprints. Com* It is an awesome exclusive guide for building better sheds and woodworking without the normal expense. Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my mate at very last got astronomical success with it.?

[@tguevara5]

Love this! Thanks for sharing! I'd like to embark on my own building of my tiny home with my son's help sometime in the near future. Seeing this build from start to finish is a tremendous help to my own education.

[@Clove2546]

But... You are not in North America all that much are you? And what happened with the house you were building in NZ? And aren't you in Australia right now? I'm so confused. Also, where will you store the house when you're not in the US/Canada? How will you get a truck to tow it? What will you do when you're not here? I think I missed something.

[@nancyanneberg932]

Fantastic. Reminds me of my experiences as a younger feckless youth ,actually older than young. So good to see the detailing
