We are a couple who are building our own home from the ground up in the mountains of West Virginia. After living near the city our entire lives we finally decided to sell it all, pack up our 3 kids and live in an RV on our 73 acres while we building our own off-grid house and learning to live a more self-reliant life.

Am watching from North East UK. I'm not going to build anything or even farm. I just love the way you interact with each other and admire what you're doing. Keep entertaining me please

[@fisherus]

You guys are the greatest ambassador family representation for off-grid living and the purpose behind it that is. Absolutely capture your audience with every video and always leave us wanting more!

You should go buy another box of tile now while the lots are simillar, trust me 15 years after our rehab, i needed to replace a single cracked tile, no mfg, no hope, but there in the dark corner of the basement was my saving grace, a partial box of 5 tiles....

[@zorgaborgaTTV]

I bet you thought you’d seen Jesus down in that dark basement

[@kcrenee5012]

Your daughter stroking your hair at the end of the tile install was the sweetest thing ever. You can tell your children are really raised on love. ❤️ You guys are my favorite KZbinrs I just adore you for cute little moments like these. Thank you for sharing with us!!!

You two are such a great team. I love how Erin is in the middle of everything. Josh, you are doing a great job of leading your family. You take the time to teach and this is a very important step. Thank you both for sharing. Look forward to your new channel.

Cutting tile is extremely nerve racking when you have zero room for mistakes! It turned out beautifully!

Always love to see Chuck as he just observes the world around him go by!

[@danielmarek4609]

I really like the LED bathroom lighting around the edges.

[@chugaaa]

Unfortunately those will rip off in about a year due to high humidity, the glue will not hold. Maybe a clear plastic scream protector or any water resistant epoxy should be implemented to prevent the inevitable outcome. It looks awesome nevertheless. Great job guys.

[@JohnnyMotel99]

@@chugaaa you can get extruded aluminium channels with diffuser for those strips, makes for a very professional look, can be mechanical fixed

[@millcrafters]

At first I thought the bathroom was too dark, and now with the tile it is Wild, Wonderful, and Off Grid. You guys are the BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Supermaanie1]

You guys are an inspiration. I am busy watching every single video u have uploaded. Im on the 4th of building the power house. Well done on everything. From cell phone 2 years ago to proffesional youtubers and dont forget the home you are making. Just awesome.

[@jamesjohnson926]

You guys are wonderful So glad the house is coming together best of wishes

How intelligent was that!!! Using a wet sponge to wet the tile! I am so impressed! Of course this coming from someone that doesn’t know anything about building! You are an awesome builder!

What he should have done is build a half inch high circular dam out of clay or plumbers putty around the hole and filled it up with water. Keeps the drill bit cool and lubricated.

[@BobL417]

You have done a great job with your children. You can't fake that. Sweetest little girl.

Nice craftmanship, a gorgeous lady and the wilderness.

[@philscott1922]

Held my breath while you were drilling the holes for the goosenecks! Just as I yelled "Keep the hole saw wet!" you squeezed the wet sponge on it. Haha! Didn't know my voice carried that far...😁 So happy for you and always looking forward to seeing you two knock down list.👍

[@SunraeSkatimunggr]

Yes! He did it. I love your videos. They are nicely done and funny as well as informative. Thanks for sharing your lives with me.

You are a great example to live life as it should be

[@kaja1854]

You guys are awesome! My boyfriend and I are so happy we found your channel almost a year ago now. We are currently in different countries, but whenever you upload, we go on video call and watch you guys together in a way, of course it's not the same as being with the person but it gives me good vibes as if nothing's changed. You are our daily does of inspiration and motivation.

Hello FAMÍLIAS.., I am fron Brazil 🇧🇷. Beutiful house. Paz for your., Thanks documentary.

[@evergreenacres]

If your tile still has a haze on it from grouting. When it drys. Get a soft dry towel and dry buff it. No water. Water will keep activating the grout. It’s a little dusty but it works.

[@davidmoser431]

Cotton shirt works well as well.

[@jimburns348]

In 3 yrs. of the three parties I started watching on their builds, you guys are the only one that has come this far, as far as being nearly complete. I believe it’s due to the commitment to your build and the thorough planning you have done. Great job you guys. Your a great family and your children will be a great contributor to the community. God bless your family.

[@fernafer7803]

You are the best....!!!! Thks for share...! I love it.... Awesome work guys....!! Cheers from Argentina...!!

the bathroom looks incredible ! when you said there was a link in the description for the new channel, I paused the video, went to the new channel , subscribed and rang the bell. then I finished this video. can't wait to see more, You two are very entertaining.

[@semco72057]

I like the look of your shower area and the grouting work you all completed and know you all will be glad to finish the work in your home and you can relax and enjoy your work. The floor looks great also and that was plenty of work also. I know that you all will be glad to receive the counter top where you can get it installed and can do plenty of cooking in your kitchen.

[@markwoslum6754]

Great news on the new channel. Been asking forever about doing more of the family, animals and homesteading. Would have liked to see it all in one channel but i'm excited and can't wait to see the videos of the other side of yours life. You are an inspiration to so many lives out there and i applaud your courage to act on your dreams and to build a better and more sustainable life and to sticking to the guy. By far the best homesteading channel on YOU TUBE.........

[@carlosc.8707]

It is incredible to see how much they have done, I remember when I saw the first video when they were planning where they were going to install their new house, and now see how beautiful their dreams are, many congratulations to where they have arrived showing the process in a very entertaining way.

[@dmj1170]

Pressure is on and good job using some water that’s the trick I used but I also bought extra tiles because I knew I would break some

[@jacqdanieles]

It's always a good idea to have a few extra tiles stored away for future replacement repairs.

[@dianerich7350]

When I was very young , did a little construction work. Once I sealed the grout with clear sealer and a tiny artist paint brush, in a entire house. Haha. It took days!

[@Marauder92V]

Hey braggart! 🤣 You may want to order a few extra tiles just in case any of them crack over time. Especially if they were special ordered.

[@mariusconrad1447]

Comme d'habitude, vous êtes des champions, soyez heureux.

[@thomasb188]

Tile is a pain in the butt to do with the angles and holes but Josh has done a great job !!!! I hope he got a few Little Debbie's for a snack !!!!! :) Have a great day !!!!!!

[@basthan1]

Back Butter, Back Butter, BACK BUTTER!!! I learned the hard way on that. Many "hallow" tiles replaced later, ALWAYS BACK BUTTER!

[@indyfastal]

I count myself as a big fan. I've been watching since you post your first video. I've seen your kids grow-up along the way, Thanks for sharing. PS: I have subscribed to the new channel too. God bless, stay safe & healthy...

[@dennisschumaker9987]

I love your family’s lives thank you very much

[@IIIypIIIyH4ik]

on the surface of the glue in the shower you need to apply horizontally, if vertically, the condensate will flow down that will affect the bottom tile

[@donniebrown2896]

From a retired master tile mechanic, not a keyboard expert. What they did with the thinset mortar is actually correct and recommended. Horizontal keeps moisture behind all the tiles, it's best for the trapped moisture to travel down to the shower pan.

[@IIIypIIIyH4ik]

@@donniebrown2896 what do you think is worse that a small amount of moisture will evaporate or that the bottom row will be constantly wet ?

[@davidwhite8790]

The tile job looks great and that’s what my dad and I have done for the last fifty years here in Wva good job guys

[@SMichaelDeHart]

Mountaineer proud!!

[@todddaugherty110]

I was cringing while you drilled those holes in the tiles. What you did perfect was to start the bit with an angle. That permits you to start a grip point and if you start with the inner narrow bit straight up, it has a tendency to "travel". While the watered sponge worked, there were some tense moments when smoke was coming off of the tile and when ceramics overheat, they have a tendency to crack. Next time take some plumbers putty or clay and build a ring dam around where the hole will be. Then fill it with water. Also, while it take a lot longer, let just the weight of the drill with very slight pressure do the work. Otherwise you run the risk of the tile cracking. Another tip: when you are mixing your mud (adhesive or mortar) keep a second 5 gallon bucket full of water to lay the paddle mixer drill into. It keeps the mud from building up and running the risk of cracking the blades when "knocking off" the mud. For someone who has "never laid tile before", you craftsmanship was absolutely perfect. Kudos.

[@pitoysj]

so exciting to see you finish ur wonderful off grid haven

[@jessicarigdon6241]

The bathroom is Beautiful!!!!!

[@ilya_od_ua]

Always get more tiles than you need. And always keep a couple in reserve. Even after the job. In case you need a replacement later.

[@erikroberts8307]

Josh is right, his stuff IS better than either Lowes or Home Depot. I'm always amazed at the precision and the quality he puts into everything.

[@insomnia1on1]

Great name Josh came up with ,for sure. Wild Wonderful off grid Family

[@motaman8074]

Man, oh, man, that really looks wonderful!

[@Donna_Bug]

Your tiles are so much better because you are doing them out of love, they are not, it makes a huge difference 😉🥰

[@seanmpreezy]

Sending love love love and more love from Nairobi, Kenya ❤️❤️ I've been a silent watcher but you guys have been inspiring ❤️ keep it up!!

[@brucealvarez9263]

Glad no more tiles were broken, they only sell them by the full box! Josh's install is better because Erin put on the mud ;) PLEASE take the device covers off before painting! No matter how carefully you work around them there are always "directional" marks. Doesn't take longer to remove a few screws than it does to mask or be careful not to get paint on the covers.

[@Lencwv]

Question: How are you going to prevent water from getting all over the wood and ruining it... in the shower?

[@jessedaron6971]

Treated wood

[@DieselRamcharger]

mistakes have been made.

[@thomasmarse4120]

I am so invested in your build. But it is the playful respect you show to each other and your family that keeps me anticipating your next vlog. To see your daughter stroking mommas pony tail brought a lump to my throat. I am going to navigate to the new channel to subscribe. Thank you both for such comprehensive explanations of what you are doing and why. I know when I build I will have a greater understanding of what I need to do. Thx and much respect to you bith

[@hanswurst4728]

It looks nice but i'm not so sure about the wood in the shower. Usually wood and moisture don't go together very well.

[@pacemetalfab]

I'm glad I'm not the only one worried with water and the wood. This will be an issue.

[@vincediesel307]

hans wurst , that’s not necessarily true, we live in Log Home and there is not one piece of sheet rock, complete interior is Wood . Which includes the bathroom.

[@carinal3768]

your baby girl with the baby goats is the cutest thing ever

[@RavenJCain]

Such a cool shot of the dog [4:15] as Josh walks buy. You can see the reflection of him in the dogs eyes. Bathroom looks beautiful. It has so much going on visuals wise. Glass shower doors can be a pain to keep up on cleaning wise. Grab a squeegee to help a bit. Of course that may all depend on how hard your water is.

[@1949chefjojo]

Awesome. Bravo, you have a Shower. Did you know that there is a shower head that has L. E. D. Lights. It return RED if the water is too hot, GREEN when warm, and BLUE when cold. It is a safe for family use.

[@robertwynkoop68]

You should seal all that grout in the shower. Put about three coats on. They sell a little bottle with a brush on it, to seal just the grout lines.

[@lesleyyoung5730]

"Please don't break the tile, please don't break the tile..." Josh proceeds to cut the tile, balancing on two other tiles over A BUCKET! 😲🤣🤣🤣

Hey guys! We talk about ya'll every time we are out working on our wood supply. "We need to get on the Morgans level with this set up!" 🤣😂 Hope ya'll are doing well!

[@raychambo8474]

Thank you soooooo much, i love you guyz, will be watching the other site

[@idadho]

When using a notched trowel, you can trowel from the edges to the middle. The notches do not need to be continuous as long as there are no lumps or dry spots. Drag from the ceiling down to the middle then from the bottom up leaving no lumps. I wipe a thin layer of thinset butter on the back of the tile to wet it. Those LED lights show that you did not use a leveling board to level the tiles as you pressed the tiles into the thinset or leveling wedges with your tile spacers. I made that mistake once. You do such careful work You got it done but your next tile job could go easier. We learn with each experience. Save water, shower together... Woo Hoo.... Mommy, What's pubic hair? Does Daddy have it on his face?

[@hilmitaufik9316]

My sunday absolutely complete when u update a new video. Cheers

[@steveclement504]

The wood in the shower, treated or something to protect from the water and steam?

[@bullbythehorns808]

Was wondering that too. But they probably just applied water seal to the wood (just like an exterior deck).

[@JodyNewman_]

It's sealed and the ceiling exhaust will remove moisture from the air.

[@rockytopwrangler2069]

..with pine ,, Will last for a while ,, but the moisture will win over time .. then replace with redwood or cedar....most saunas and wet areas are Redwood....

[@augustreil]

Did they seal the grout ? I'd be concerned with that also.

[@Son37Lumiere]

@@augustreil They used a water sealant on the drywall behind the tile, no need to seal the grout.

[@jacquesnoel8694]

your family look great it very nice too see that keep up the good work we need this for exemple in this world Jacques

oh my lord I was cringing when you drilled that hole in the tile balanced on a BUCKET !!!! But of course, you always end up doing everything perfectly so congrats :)

[@localcritic4490]

The kids with baby goats was super cute!

[@ChristySandhoff]

One more thing, in one of our builds, the glass shower doors were delayed for a few weeks, so we showered without them. We discovered we didn't actually need them at all. One less thing to have to clean, repeatedly. Maybe you should try that.
