- Today on Modern Builds I'm converting my parent's attic into the ultimate DIY Home Theater / Cinema Room! This was something my dad has wanted to do since they built the house, and I couldn't be more happy to get this project completed for father's day! Turning the attic into a movie room was a big project, but totally worth it! Thanks for watching and I hope this projects helps make a similar renovation less intimidating for you all watching! Thanks for the support! :)

I was expecting the projector to be like $800 but it's surprisingly only $2700
You gotta have that money I guess
@Styx62 Ga amen
Lmaooo
Pleb work amirite
conor moloney 2700 is more than 800 😂😂😂😂
Love this book! ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxpCNxqmAkyjN6NPx1fyB7QiEFWyO5mUWL it is simply one-of-a-kind! I really love it, because karah explained all tools required to have the job done, not mentioning the fabulous diy pallets ideas. I'm pretty sure this will be a fresh start in my new endeavour. Amazon was great, they delivered on time. Thank you!
You're going to regret covering up that window..
Imagine how moldy it is in there right now.
you took the words right out of my mouth. this has officially become a creepy house because of that covered window.
Smells like popcorn?
Yeah he should’ve just taken the window out and then plywood in the space and then Reeside the outside and then he’d have a wall
@@VinnyTheTall or just keep the window
Him: it even has a built in cord reel ! How cool is that
Me : my vacuum has that
My toaster has that. It cost me literally $10
Hahahahaha. 🤪
I guess those are the benefits of spending $2750
My iron has that
My dad would have me tear it down and do it over if he found out I just drywalled over a window.
Me too
Same
Mine too haha!
Most people would, tear the thing out, frame it in.. Patch the siding. I’d get my ass beat over that.
Bro my name is Chris too wtf. Maybe you're my clone....... or I'm your clone, fuck! But yea I can just hear my dad lecturing me on it. Sorry "our" dad.
That window you buried is gonna create moisture.....
You'll find a few mistakes on a couple of his renovation projects. A double moisture barrier like this would cause a few issues in the right climate.
After learning that he blocked it off, I was saying to myself future issues no matter where you live. That's just not the right call whatsoever.
Rainbow Six smashing the insulation with the "sealed" can lights will cause issues too.
I don't think ppl understand how serious my questions are.
1st Question.
Who the fuck has an Attic of that size?
2nd question
Who the fuck has double doors in their Attic???
3rd question
Who the fuck has adjacent doors in an Attic????
@@holyarmageddon19 WELL MY FRIEND THEM ????'S R FUCKN VALID
Attic: _Has window for easy ventilation_
Modern Builds: "Im gonna End this whole rooms career!"
He could just install a fan
Moon_ Wolf sadly not quite that easy
@@eamonbrannigan add ventilation towers
Being a professional carpenter this video makes me smile! Not because your doing all the flooring wayy harder than it should be.. but because normal people don't even take carpeting on! Impressive, respect bro
Nothing like watching a movie in a sauna... I didn't see any air conditioning vents. It looks great though!
After insulation, you shouldn't have nearly as bad of heat issues. Vents for HVAC still would be recommended. I'm just wondering who has an attic that is accessible via doors like that.
@@skiddz17 converted attics that aren't connected to the central ac or in general no vents at all are gonna have some bad problems with heating and cooling in general. the room next to mine used to be attic until we decided to convert it into a media room years ago we made sure to cover it in insulation and even install a small vent but even so it has problems which resulted in a need for its own air conditioning and tons of air movement
I built a room similar to this above my garage. ( it is disconnected from the upstairs) In my case running ductwork from the existing upstairs heating/cooling unit was not feasible due to the system not being large enough to support the extra space.
Luckily, I found an absolute bargain on used portable cooling unit and merged its exhaust onto an existing exhaust line on the other side of the wall ( the pre existing upstairs system)
No doubt he probably should have kept the window and used a retractable or a portable projection screen. However, he still has the kitchen area to finish so maybe he could place a portable unit there.
Just add a ductless mini split system and you’re good!
LoL. Well said it's almost like people forget that attics are meant to act as buffer zone from heat outside and to let heat rising from the lower portions of the house to vent out. Not really meant for storage let alone a room conversion.
DAD: This film really takes my breath away.
SON: Yeah, 'bout dat...
Tabletop Sound Design this is fucking good :)
this joke is underrated
😂😂😂😂 Apple would approve, though
7:35 I thought he was going to start it like a lawnmower
Same 😂
Me too
me too i was like wtf!!! that would make for a noisy projector hahaaa
Same😂😂
😂
I have a cinema room too. It's called the toilet and I use my phone as the screen 😅😅
Me right now
You should have done the other walls in black. This way you would avoid the wall reflections and make the image quality even better.
GaBIT there's special theatre matte black paint just for this. Also some dimmable lights above would be nice
Pinterest goofs
Yes.. I was thinking that too!
I'm flabbergasted that he sealed over a window. lmao
Lol 😂😂😂
His enthusiasm canceled out his brains.
@@curtchildress7160 😂
those gaps in the plywood floor too... omg.
That was an especially bizarre choice.
"How to make an upstairs sweatlodge"
cfroi08 #yes
The exhaust of the cooling system on the projector will serve as the sauna oven.
@@taoutdoors8110 #ya
Yep, no hvac or window lol…. See how much usage that gets in a year
Did they seriously nail up all the dry wall??!!!!??
I'm glad I'm not the only one that immediately raised an eyebrow after seeing the window getting covered up.
I’m literally speechless, imagine drywalling over a window... A WINDOW
Georgia Eve whats bad about this
Kenny Cassidy For starters, there’s no insulation so there’s nothing to keep heat or cool air from leaving the room. Also, the temperature difference between the indoors and outdoors could create condensation on the inside or outside of the drywall, and moisture can lead to mold.. and you see the issue with that.
Logan haha yeah that’s definitely a problem. thanks for explaining
Georgia Eve made me cringe working in construction lol
could have just put a pull down projector screen mounted to the ceiling and pulled it down over the window.
Imagine if he realized that he left the window open after putting the drywall 😂
Nico Barros hell remember when he tears it out next month after it creates moisture.
That’ll be a wet spot soon!
He should have opened it and fit a vent into it.
In the middle of a movie wall bursts open Phil Swift here
LoL 😂 well that would suck
@Samuel Mills
Your windows close from the outside? Seems dangerous. Mine only have the bar on the inside....
So a person could just like, open your window from the outside too then?
Dude at least connect a vent, you’ll be sweating balls in there
Probably vents don't look good on photos...
@John Hanouneh a vent is where the ac blows the air out
That's what I was thinking, too. I can't possibly imagine this is to the local code. There is not heating, cooling, ventilation in that room. I do live in a notoriously heavily coded (is that even a phrase) location, but this definitely would not fly.
@@joshuaychung technically code doesn’t require a “vent” whether it be a supply or return. Especially until after the house is appraised again. That room won’t even be inspected. They would mention that it needs some sort of air conditioning wether it be a mini-split or a traditional supply
@@jakobdaniel2110 I was actually trying to finish the attic space above the garage to convert it into a closet. Mine basically looks like this guy's room with the window at the end. We sent in our plan to the city, and we were told that 1) we need heating and cooling and 2) we need a ton of insulation under the floor since my garage isn't heated. Again, I live in a notoriously heavily coded location, but the total cost would have been close to $30K just for a closet. We decided not to go forward until the stock price goes up a bit more.
EDIT: My city also does not allow the electrical wires behind the walls without a metal conduit to run the wires through. All the junction boxes also must be metal.
aside from the window thing everyone’s talking about, the results of the room came out really nice.
I'd highly recommend painting the non screen walls a much darker matte color, it will cut down on glare and help focus the image.
I wouldn't mind a slate grey color.. but when the lights are off, the projector looks great and there's not too much ambient light (for my taste). The screen wall isn't too reflective and that helps a lot
its a good point, but, he did specifically address it in the video, and explained he understood the benefit of dark, but the white was just a matter of personal taste ;)
6:25
Where's the vents ? You are going to have moisture .
Well you can just open a window.
Lefthook demolition I would’ve put in a bigger window. Little secret from me: I don’t use any nails or screws for any of my door or windows, I use liquid styrofoam and it works like magic plus it makes it easier for me atleast to make the door 100% level. And if you mess up, you can just use a sawzaw and cut the styrofoam and try again. Cheers
@@alexanderswander8176 liquid styrofoam ?
Do you mean construction foam (expanding foam).
Ya I think he should of used a pull down screen. Don't want to fart in that room.
Lefthook demolition yeah that stuff in the red and blue cans at home depot. Just don’t get it on your hands
i went to go do this in my attic and i fell threw the ceiling
threw !?? I almost through up reading this...
@@NiekKuijpers 😂
The best comment I have seen in about 2 years on youtube, thanks man for making lockdown extra special :)
are u ok
Good set up, but... No air vents, no fire escape, moisture build up.
Fire escape? I don't think normal homes have that... Maybe commercial buildings, but most people have just an attic with one stair leading towards it.
Harold Holsappel by fire escape they mean another exit. like, if the door was burning, there’s no window to crawl out of
@@citrusn wtf? Just dropkick your way through that drywall and climb out of the window :'D
It's an attic.
I believe regulations state you only have to have suitable exit to escape from in case of fire if the area is used as a bedroom and sleeping in. At least in the UK
Should have taken advantage of painting the ceiling a flat dark color to stop that light reflecting
George Montes but he‘s a racist
I stopped watching when he covered up the window
Megan S Same 😂 that’s how you know it’s shit
I stopped watching as they rounded out the off angles that they should have used no coat on..
I'm a drywaller and I bet in person it doesn't look very good in that room
I stopped watching when he kept saying to guy the projector when it’s 2000$
And why would you want a floor standing projector in a theater room that you're just now drywalling... put a power outlet in the ceiling and have a much cleaner install with no chord to trip on. He also forgot to connect that room to the home's HVAC, so that's going to be nice and comfortable... these youtubers get dumber every day.
and white walls lol
Tip: for moving flimsy rolls of carpet, run a 2x4 down the inside of the roll. If needed, use a 2x4 longer than the roll of carpet and knock a 16 penny nail into one end of the board. Now you can drag it up a flight of stairs by yourself and the carpet won't slide off the board.
19:08 That's how good that dry wall is. smooooooth.
He said they textured the side walls.
Its that level 5 finish
yikes. love the idea... but the window and no HVAC + nails in drywall.
Yeah not sure why you would use nails for drywall anymore. Screws are much better in my experience.
It must be life time memory moment for you. When you saw big smile on your dad’s face. Nothing would replace that particular moment and feeling you get. You have done a fantastic work for your dad. I just wish my dad was still around for me to do anything for him. Big 👏
Title: "DIY"
Has other people do it for him
lol right!
PFIY, pay for it yourself
Gersian Collaku as he should... the one part he did himself was literally the dumbest decision of all. His drywall is going to mold
This should be the #1 ranked comment
Great job! Your father's words spoke for your work! God bless
How to remodel an attic:
Have a lot of money
Dude, that attic is like the square footage of my entire house...
if you diy everything, then it don't cost that much
Probably wasn't even an attic. Looked like to be a bonus room.
@@Arterexius The projector itself is 2700....
That attic is bigger than my house
Rule number 1 of DIY club... never drywall over a window
RMMJ why is that? I’m not questioning u I’m just wondering why
@@josephweller7016 Condensation with no air movement will happen there as temps and air moisture changes. Think of how you pull a cold bottle of water out of the fridge and it gets all that condensation around it especially on a warm day. Similar thing happens here throughout the year. This can damage the drywall covering it and also create mold very easily. without any kind of insulation or moisture barrier between that window and the drywall, you're asking for a pocket of trouble right there.
Matthew Franzen Perkins ohhhh thank you
Joseph Weller not to mention that not having a window creates the issue of not having a fire escape route which some fire marshals require.
@@josephweller7016 Glass = poor thermal insulation = temperature disparity on the window = condensation buildup behind wall = mold.
WOW!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm amazed by the result!
I'm a few years late on watching this video but I'm catching up now speacialy this vid building a room for Dad is awesome n brought tears 😭 our parents are the greatest ppl in our lives... Great stuff
when you set the projector outside and started pulling the cord out I thought that you were pull starting it for a second. ha ha
The air in that room is gonna be hard to breathe after a short while 😅
Oh yikes. Wow the comment section is so critical. okay he made a mistake by covering the window but my goodness he's not an expert and all of the other stuff is pretty good imo.
@@aarond9563 You don't have to be an expert to realise that air ventilation and escape routes in case of a fire is essential.
@@vvfking totally agree with you, i mean they not even have air condition inside of the room, but probably he will figure out, i saw lot about this in the comments.
He probably does not live in Florida then. We can't do this. It get's like 200° in an attic here by like 12:00 noon. Even if you try running an A/C duct there it won't cool it down at all, and if you try putting a mini split A/C system in your attic with a thermostat, then it will run *FOREVER* and then break because it can't be able to cool that space.
@@aarond9563 It doesn't take an expert to know covering or removing the window is against the building code
So sweet, how much your dad liked it !
Great job 👍 Love how you took an unused space and made it functional
Built in cord reel.
Well not as cool if you consider that vacuums from 2000's had one of those bad boys
And pretty ghetto. If you're finishing the room from scratch, you might as well just install a power outlet in the ceiling and ceiling mount a traditional projector out of the way. You can put a Nvidia Shield on top of it, out of sight, and you now have a smart projector with no other cables needed.
Nothing like watching a movie in a home theater with completely white walls. Really adds to the whole "theater" experience.
Spencer it’s because he likes the color and looks great for pictures... 😂😂😂
This video literally made me throw up in my mouth. Open studs…and didn’t even wire for real surround.
If you are being srarestic I would have painted the walls black
I have to say my fav part was when your dad saw your work. You can tell he is very proud. ☺️
Thoroughly impressed!
I don't know where you live, but if it's cold in winter (I guess it is) then you very likely may face problems with water condensing on cold glass behind drywall patch and different lifeforms being born between your window and drywall. Toxic mold to be exact. The window should be ventilated or at least that wall should be painted with paint and/or primer which have very low or zero vapor permeability (thick layer of cheap polymer primer should have pretty low vapor permeability). Otherwise vapor from the air will be able to travel through drywall and condense on the window. I recommend you to check the window from outside from time to time.
I don't see anyway that was a thought out idea, what was he thinking? Is there any place accounting for ventilation?
@@annkus3 really? Lol
lol The Dad's like "Wow, Thanks Son!" then gets up to go watch youtube in his office...
"Do you see how good this projector looks???"
Not really because the video was uploaded in 1080p and it looks like there is vaseline on the lens.

Good on you man! Made your Dad proud!
Feel like i'd suffocate inside, there's no air vent, especially he drywalled the only window.
7:35 i thought he was starting the projector like a generator
DANIAL MALHI I did so too
LOL me too until i realized it was that pull cord hahaha
I came to the comments to see if anyone else saw that. Way too funny!
laughed to hard at this lmao
It's not only portable, you can take it camping!
I'm happy your parents were happy. Nice gift.
That DOOR and the hexagonal floor pattern 😍
"after looking at Pinterest"
LOL
That wasn't even an "attic" it was just an unfinished room left over from bad planning when the house was built, and now it's an unventilated echo chamber with a projector
TheEmerald yeah good call on the echos
Haahhahah you win the comments for sure.. classic...
with all that carpet and the inevitable soft furniture that will end up in that room, echoes shouldn’t be an issue
A really expensive projector though
Attic (noun): "A space or room just below the roof of a building." So yeah, it is an attic.
10:25 so that's what would be stabbing me in my foot when I walk on carpet barefoot.
Why would you walk to the edge of the wall with that thing installed
If the right tac strip and carpet combination is used, you won't poke yourself on it
Scrope it can also be in doorways
There's literally a later of carpet pad ans a carpet overtop a nail that's like.... maybe a couple millimeters tall. You'll be fine.
I wish for all Father's Day was like that. Great Father with great a son. All good wishes to your family dude.
I hope no one uses this as a build guide, so many bad techniques. Nails in drywall? Just cover the window? No HVAC? Holy crap.
these corporations really need to do some screening of their youtube shills
@@BoopSnootwhat corporations?
@@matth7129 LG paid for the video to be produced, along with the company he shilled for in the video.
I've done carpeting for a little over a year and I was horrified.
Now the problem is keyboard not unlike myself will find this on youtube and think this is how to do it. You need HVAC, you need to screw drywall so it doesnt pop years down the road, and never cover a window ffs. Then real contractors like my friends are going to have to put up with people like this trying to nickel and dime, "well I saw it on youtube!". I'm not sure what to think of where this world is heading. You have people that post videos making more than doctors there is a problem with society.
So on the outside, that window just looks into the back of drywall?? I don't know about that man...
hahaha
Would that not cause moisture from the window? I don’t know a ton but that felt like a badddddddd idea lol.
in a short time... you won't see the back of the drywall. you'll only see all the mold that has grown in that moisture trap they created
My husband do the same thing with window. I just why you do that his answer was I want to install a ventilation I say ok (For me was crazy 🤣)But he made
When has the purpose of a window EVER been for viewing INTO your home??? Lol bruh what? I bet you hate when people have curtains and blinds too, ole peeping Tom looking boy 😂🤷🏻♂️
I love your old school Reeboks!!!
Dude!! That was awesome! Really wish I could do something like that for my parents. You are the best son!
NAIL and DRYWALL? Planning on Nail pops in a year or two ... then bring those guys back to reinstall them with SCREWS instead.
Yeah that part blew my mind.
if you use good quality ring-shank nails and use enough of em you wont have any issue. i know a few old dry wallers that prefer nails over screws and their work lasts decades with ease
yeah never saw that before
Exactly, I help my dad put dry wall sometimes and we always use screws, so seeing them put nails on caught me off guard
No moisture barrier? And why did the drywallers put a texture on the projector wall?
You automatically get a texture if you just seal and dont sand afterwards, but yeah it's a bit curious why there's no moisture barrier, as well as no kind of cooling
you don't put a vapor barrier over kraft faced insulation. The kraft facing is a vapor retarder and putting an additional poly vapor barrier on top of it will trap moisture between the two and cause potential issues. And my guess is they "textured" the walls so they wouldn't need to sand.
Did you maybe want to throw a bit of positivity in there or that's just not your style?
@@Wmoore1 good morning will m I'm curious as to whether you just singled me out for your "no positivity" comment or if you have added that the MANY negative comments here. I'm sure that the creator of this video has many innovative ideas for projects, but this this attic was improperly insulated from the start and this was not corrected. Hopefully anyone else who wants to finish an attic will look at videos from skilled tradespeople to find out how to do it.
will m is negatively trolling the comments.
Nice father son moment!
I like that you watch videos with you're parents!!
Dad: we're gonna move to another house
Him: ...
I mean it adds property value so ....
Hobo Bobo actually not really. Because it’s not connected to HVAC it can’t be counted as “living space” or count towards square footage. It’s also probably not up to code because he covered the window, which is unsafe because it blocks both an escape and ventilation when the attic inevitably heats up beyond human tolerance
@@cl22396 it does add property value tho
Its a nice touch and really he didnt spend so much on it (minus projector lol) He probably did gain some value for his folks.
What did you do for HVAC .. Heating cooling.. That's a attic with no ventilation
stuffy
Opening the window! Oh... wait. Nvm!
@@easyfrag7424 so good lol
Well I guess he can just buy a fan and a heater
I know literally nothing about construction or renovations but couldn't installing something like an exhaust fan, that can be used in bathrooms, work? Or installing another type of ventilating contraption?
Really cool build. I'm envious. Great projector from LG.
Speechless 😍😍😍
Defiantly would not have allowed dry wall to be nailed. We stopped that method about 10 years ago as nails can pop. Drywall screws is now the recognised method
Who gives a shit
Carpet for unventilated room makes for plenty asthma attacks.
TruFantom21 they’ll die from heat stroke first
@@cl22396 you're not wrong.
Videos like this are so Satisfy
I don't care who didn't like this video. I think u did a great job for doing certain things for the 1st time. It looks awesome & this is something that I would definitely try
When you showed us how big 150" is it looked like you were starting a lawn mower. I thought to myself: that is a really portable projector. Anyway, great video.
Brooo your shoe game is strong! I WANT THEM ALL!!!!
That’s the sweetest thing ever. And great project!!
"Let's check it out"
*proceeds to blind me with projector light*
Oh no, they stacked the drywall panels 🤦🏽♂️
I feel like we've been waiting for this one forever :)
same ;)
love the dad videos, right on
I love the white walls!
Should have installed in wall and in ceiling speakers before the drywall went up. This could have been a much better home theater room.
Anything other than that soundbar... I guess the idea is to keep it looking clean, but soundbars are too "form over function".
Also the window getting drywalled over made me laugh a little lol, he could've just came up with a solution to cover it up when the theater is in use, and then have a nice quality projector screen to pull down over it.
@@2string861 I completely agree. It would have been much better in my thoughts to have a window there that is usable and functional and cover it with a screen and do something fun like a projector screen over the top of a box that would allow you to seal off the window while in theater mode. It also would have been nice to have some quality speakers in there rather than some crappy sound bar that sounds decent at best. Some kind of bass traps in the corners and walls would have been nice and some kind of sound reflection reducers in the back whether that be a wooden Skyline style like they have in a studio or just auralex foam that you can find at any Studio shop.
as a very novice woodworker would enjoy seeing a quick video on how you constructed the floating console. This was a very impressive project overall!
17:28 Hes got his hand right next to the table saw and he takes his eyes off his hands
He trying to turn it off
the projector is so cool!!!
Holy cow, holy crap... first the son was amazed, than the father...
The best fathersday ever! Your dad is proud of you bro.
Yes!! I've been looking forward to this since I saw the floors you did in the last video!
So dope!!
Awesome project! Can only imagine the blood and sweat that have gone in to this. Thanks for sharing!
It just amazing!👍🏽👍🏽
Mike this turned out killer, what a huge project but SO worth the effort. Hopefully you and your dad watch something awesome on it for Father's Day.
He loved it!!! Thanks a ton :)
Do you know what movie that is with the man on the boat at the end?
dude you had my hyped up but that projector cost like 2 thousand dollars
lol nah
LG sent it to him so im sure he got it for free.
Wow he’s so proud of his son love this video
SUCH A GOOD SON!!
“Slap stapler” is actually called a HAMMER STAPLER. I’m a carpet and vinyl layer😄👌
Whacker tacker
It's commonly referred to as *"THINGY"*
This is amazing! I wish I was able to build things like this and show what my hard work looks like!
Love the reebok classics
dude, that was epic room
I am a home theater junky. It would be so easy to criticize so many things as a snob. (Gear, acoustics, color (light reflection (great answer in vid!!), screen etc)... BUT.... Even with almost 15k of just sound gear in mine (or more..) What makes a difference more than a 5k processor vs a 500 receiver... It's the room presentation.
It is so so hard for 99% of people to tell the difference between a $500 sound system and something like I run with thousand just in subs. Yes of course there is a massive difference, but I rarely get to really run my theater at reference levels and socially, cant run it full out and interact with friends (just to much).
I have quickly learned that home theater is a really more about the "space" than the gear. The space is what people notice and remember.
Loved the detail in the vid. Great result in the end. I would look at doing some acoustic DIY panels in the future with some decent fabric wraps (for color, and maybe with LED strip light back lighting) and diffusers to deal with some of the odd reflective surfaces. Be a cool series.
Keep the content coming!!! Loved the floor!! And I think you have me thinking about doing my own carpet replacement....
Really cool build, but that couch is not a movie couch...
Fun in the summer
"HOLY CRAP!!" priceless!!
