Cheapest way to build a house is to wait for this housing bubble to burst!! It's coming soon some of us know way more about economics than an architect or an Irish politician/landlord!!

Move out of Ireland is the smart move. Ireland is a communist country

Good investment....if you live in Spain

all very interesting. but no real help !. PS please fix the brick wall paper in the background . as the miss matched brick line behind you really stands out especially because your talking about brickwork .

I got some advice from 3 little pigs in a Ford transit .

Not all have heaters and you can turn them off if needed.. they are cheap but they work by pushing air in a house out via chimneys, open windows or any vents.

Come in with no identity learn some Ukrainian claim Asylum from the war and u will get yur purpose built Modular home. Simples.

Great news, you should do a vlog of a new build or retrofit from start to finish for your youtube channel. There doesn't seem to be much in that space on UA-cam, especially in Ireland.

Great news, looking forward to seeing this, particularly for older homes.

What a find! I live in Cork city, and I'll be starting to renovate my old (early 1800s) house at some point (soon hopefully). Lots of work to do. Looks like this channel has a ton of useful information, thanks!

Do they reduce humidity though?

what's cheaper domer or two story?

Does carbon dioxide build up in A rated homes?

Just wondering what do you think those European style, insulated thermally efficient Clay, 'Porotherm,' [interlocking] blocks, that use a super Thin mortar bed. applied with a special roller / applicator, might this method take off here in Ireland. due to the quickness of laying same, and it's reckoned even in sketchy cold weather, maybe in the future it might become hard to get skilled Block layer trades, to build those, ''Block on Edge'' Wide double cavities. Great Upload...

In your experience, on average what has the cost difference been between block laying a wall or shuttering and pouring it?

Any advice on renovating old stone houses? They have character, history, and good locations at times, so there is an attraction. But I've often heard that it would be simpler to knock them down and build from scratch. What are the gotyas? Is the idea feasible in general? How much more expensive would it be? Can they be brought up to modern standards without killing the character? There's a broad range of old house and indeed conditions they're in. Lets say it still has a roof and walls, but both would need structural work. What would people need to do a restoration versus a more modern build?

Any advice on where self builders can get Windows and Doors from? It seems like manufactures aren't willing to sell to anyone that's not a business and businesses want thousands for a single window or door install

Hello.. Which one is better when it comes to reliability or durability of the house?

I may be late to this video, but five years ago i had a meeting with my planning officer, i was looking to build a log cabin style house but was told no because it dosnt blend in with the area, argued my case that a timber house blends into green feilds better than a whight bright house 🤦 but basicly was told unless theres forestry or a screening plan put in i cant build, but im thinking of a more modern style now wich would basicly look like a shed, i dont know what is tge syle name of these houses are but do you reckon it could be approved or just sit down with the planning officer again? I qualified for everything else and only 2-3 house could see my site (1.7km away) in winter, spring/summer no one could ever see it. Thanks

The running cost of piv is generally much higher. It's because pivs usually have an electric heater to heat the fresh air and avoid blowing cold air into the living space.

I heard the issue with underfloor heating is if something needs to be repaired, you have to tear apart the floor in order to correct the problem. That would be a disaster with a concrete floor! And what about flooding? Is there a risk of electrocution if excessive water gets on floor?

What!? No! I always want to buy a bungalow house, no wonder they are high price than 2 story house.

Im considering buying an existing property on 10 acres (in my home county), knocking the property as it was build in the 1970s and is very dated, then building a new A1 property on a different part of the land (closer to a small lake). Do you foresee any issues with the CoCo planning authority? Love your channel by the way- thanks for launching it!

Glad to hear you’re shooting Season 5! I only recently discovered your show on FreeVee so only have Seasons 1-3 available for free right now. Being of Irish descent ( well, not all but the better part of me!), I fell in love with your show! I always wanted to go there but that is not in the cards which makes your show so valuable to me. Have to say this. Maggie is a beautiful woman who I would love to share a cupppa or a pint with. But Kieran, you are absolutely the most handsome man I have ever seen! ( sure there’s many a lady who would agree with me!) I’m harmless old woman many miles away but one of the advantages of getting older is that you’re less afraid of what people think of you and realize how precious time and beauty is! People are quick to criticize others but reluctant to give compliments. So, had to say it. Your smile and humor and kindness and mannerisms melt my heart! Wishing you and Maggie and your respective families much joy and many blessings!

Fascinating! Great job on not giving up but rather problem solving and recreating yourself!! Wonderful role model!!! So many threw in towel during Covid but those that survived worked with the situation and recreated themself. It’s all about growing, learning and adapting!

Why aren’t you guys on anymore? Such a wonderful show! Showed the beautiful historical side of Ireland …. the heart and soul. You two brought a wonderful knowledge and energy! You really know your craft and made it possible for people to see you can save these old homes!2:38

So sad this show isn’t on anymore!!!!!!

If your a landlord and doing a new build to rent not really in your interests really and a massive cost if your building a home to rent .

Cheapest way is to throw away your passport and come into the country illegally

That’s interesting! Never thought of it like that

Inspiring!

Kieran, good to see you again. Btw, are you doing anymore work with Maggie Molloy?

Just found this podcast and found it very interesting. I would like to biuld a two bed100 sqm house on a flat site which I own. What is the cheapest that I can build this for, and incidently I think that it would be a fantastic TV show to show people how to build a two bed house for relatively small money.

Worth noting that Scandinavian Homes are no longer offering full build option in Galway either.

Do you always yous a leaf of block to carry the external render ?

What's the best way to insulate a new build on a budget

Where can i get a grant for internal/external insulation please?

The cheapest and strongest way to build a house actually is 9inch solids on flat ,skim outside and inside also 100mm insulation inside better for installation of Windows also . no complications plain and simple and much stronger house and better ber rating ! Very surprised this had no mention but great video 👍

Name of Facebook page would be helpful 😊

Glad i found this channel 😁

Do you do advice consultation s ? Two years into project and so lost even with being 8 grand down for architect😢, no idea what to do next

So basically timber frame is most cost effective than blocks because of what he said.

Could you show the layout from above?

Brilliant thanks.

Thanks for the information 👍. Great to know about that FB group for the future.

Just had triple glazed windows fitted , they used a spray foam instead of tape?

No central heating is insane.

That’s a daft rule. So my kids got no hope unless I can first become a farmer, which I can’t because I’m not from the area. 😔

What if you don't have timbers and it's concrete roof asking for a friend do I still have to vent

Would love to hear your opinion on 1. 6 inch Cavity Block walls with external insulation? 2. Shipping Container House Builds
