2 YEARS Timelapse - House is Built in 37 MINUTES

Описание: This is a start-to-finish video of our house building from 2021-2023, 2 year progress in 37 minute video. Two years in the making while still living in a homemade 20 m2 sauna house with my wife and kid. This has been a rough emotional and financial journey but it was worth it in the end. In this video you see all the steps that are required to build a house. Starting from tearing down an old house (if it's in the way of course - our dear friend    / @afhprojects   helped us out with the demolition) and preparing the land for the foundation. In our case the old slightly rotten log house had stone "foundation" which just means a heap of huge rocks and dirt. I managed to clear most of the dirt and rocks with the trusty JCB backhoe loader and GEHL 1620 mini skid steer. However, the contractor brought a proper excavator to clear the lot for the foundation footing. The foundation was made of concrete blocks and insulated both inside and outside. Backfill was 300 tons of compacted sand. The floor slab is insulated in every way and has radiant heating. Radiant floor heating is powered by geothermal heat pump. This basically means a super efficient way of heating up the water with electricity for both the water boiler and heating the house during the winter. When living in the countryside there definitely has to be a wood stove in our opinion. So we also got an efficient fireplace/wood stove that has electronically controlled burn cycle. If there is no electricity the valves stay open so it can be used anyway. The wooden framed walls were pre-made in a factory and brought to building site and mounted to the foundation by workers. This particular house has 112 m2 of usable area and a 34 m2 of porch (under construction as we speak). This house was our dream for several years since me and my wife got married. The life since year 2019 in the small 20 m2 sauna house / tiny house got quickly crowded with stuff when we had our first child a few years back. Getting this new house built was definitely needed. I hope you find this video inspiring. Thanks for watching and see you in the next video!
