Good work. The only thing I would add would be to board in the underside of the stairs and maybe insulate to lessen the sound of people walking up and down
I may do that at some point, but for now it's just a guest room so not a big deal. Thanks!
Totally thought the same. Poor kid will be woken every time anyone goes up or down those stairs.
Was just going to say the same thing about insulating for sound , as the room has essentially been made from a corner of the living room, so lets hope anyone who uses it , doesn't want to go to bed early or like to sleep in .
It’s much better than Harry Potter’s bedroom. ❤️❤️❤️
Exactly
Do I plan on adding a room to my home? No, but did I watch this as if preparing to do just that? Yes! Cool project!
Haha thanks for checking it out!
Im living in a motel room provided by my employer and still have watch the whole video.
I like that you left the water heater accessible. Those things are a beast to replace in tight spaces. I used to work for a company that did that. Nice project!
Thanks a lot 🤘 New house projects coming soon!
Oh, it’ll be a beast to replace in that configuration, too.
Love how you left the underside of the stairs exposed it's always the little " oh look at that" details that I like
Thanks! I agree.
I'm so jealous of the wooden walls, it makes renovating and stuff 10x easier to DIY!
Definitely!
A couple notes:
1. You generally want to avoid putting a drywall joint above a door as joints in those areas are prone to developing cracks.
2. You're using your drywall router wrong. Specifically, when routing out around the outside of an object (e.g., electrical box) you want to do so in a counter-clockwise direction. The bit will then tend to hug the box as you go rather than wander away from it, especially noticeable at the corner of a box. Likewise, when you route around the inside (e.g., a doorway or window opening) you want to move in a clockwise direction for the same reason.
Your drywall taping and mudding looks really well done for a DIYer. You're using the right products (paper tape and all purpose mud). One suggestion would be to tape the joints up to the corner bead before you run the setting type compound on an outside angle. Or, if you don't want to do that, at least embed 6" or so of paper tape in setting type compound before you mud the angle. (You can even use the same batch of mud -- just mix a bit of aluminum sulfate onto the mud on your hawk and that mud will become 1 minute or 5 minute or 10 minute mud.)
I can't tell if you're adding any water to your taping mud, but it looks like it could use a bit more. The tape will embed easier and you'll be less likely to get bubbles under the tape. Too much water, though, and you may tend to squeeze out all the mud, again causing bubbles. Too much water will also cause adhesion problems, so don't go crazy.
I'm also going to mention the lack of drywall under the stairs. When you enclose that space you're creating a place where a fire can go undetected for a longer period and can compromise the stairs (read: an escape route) before you know it.
I appreciate the tips! This was my first time doing most of this, and I have since improved many of my techniques 🤘
Man I love you place my wife and I are planning a build like yours soon on our 25 acre property in Tennessee thx for the content
Awesome good luck with yours!
this project came together beautifully. you made it look like it belonged there. not only is it well done, but you've just added more value to your home. you should be proud!
Thanks so much!
And he hung the drywall by himself.very impressed. Great job !!!
Thanks! It was a lot of work....
For a young man, you have some impressive skills; welding, fabrication, carpentry, electrical and mechanical.
Id like to see a video on how you came to acquire these skills and how you got your start.
Thanks a lot! Really I'm self taught in all of those things. I am a mechanical engineer which definitely helps with the basic foundational understanding of different processes. But really I just research new skills I want to learn and take my time to try to do things the correct way.
@@Kordare if you had a school I'd enrol my children.. these skills are way more useful in real life then the crap i learnt in school
Yeah imagine that. Young folks know how to do shit. 😂
@@alaydrus89 it's not though is it
Exactly. Not many care to learn those anymore.@@YoMama9021
What a great job you did!
My 23 YO daughter and I (58, with severe Osteoarthritis) are in the process of finishing two large bedrooms at my parents summer home so they can move here to be near us. Neither of us has any experience, and all I can say is---I'll NEVER do this again. Every step of the way has had huge challenges, and living out here in the sticks we haven't been able to find people to do any of it for us. We've had to learn everything ourselves (thanks UA-cam!),, and although I do enjoy learning new skills, this has been more than I really needed to tackle at my age and condition.
Tomorrow we start priming walls---so I can see the light at the end of the tunnel--and I'm pretty sure it's not a train.
Wish I'd known that trick to hold the sheetrock up while I was screwing it to the studs!
Thanks! I agree these projects are always a big undertaking. The bathroom and laundry room I just built was way more work but I learned a lot.
Wow man you’re so talented! I need to add a bedroom in my basement. So I’ll be watching a lot of vids like yours and others!
Thanks a lot! Check out the more detailed videos of this project on my channel🤘
Hey same here, was really impressed with his video.
Great job waiting for the laundry room video next
Thanks 🙌🙌
Very impressive that you did that in 10 mins! 😜Great job!
Thanks!
I liked your little support pieces for the drywall.
Gotta get creative working by yourself
I just rewatched this.its so impressive. Makes me want to build something !!!❤
Thanks a lot 🙌
Thank u for info on screws that u used for concrete.appreciate it.
All I say is WOW. Who care how long it took you? You did your way and your reasons. My brother-in-law it’s a handy man and he purchased a handyman’s special in MA. He fixed it all. My hubby it’s not a handyman at all. Great work. I wished I had pay attention when my dad carpentry, but I became a nurse instead. What I also liked was watching the end result.
Thanks a lot!
I'm impressed that you found a decent sized spot WITH a window.
🙌🙌
This guy is really good. Thanks for the vid
Appreciate it!
Satisfying to watch
Harry your room is ready!
Damnn that's so awesome man your just like me hahha using 3d to figure out builds and making them come to life that's badass
Thanks a lot man, great minds think alike 🤘
nice job! I think since you were adding power to the room, maybe running a light for the utility closet would have been helpful? also the inside of the closet dose not really need this but maybe painting the inside to make it feel more finished? I see someone mentioned insulating the ceiling panel under the steps to muffle sound. I love that idea,
Thanks! Yeah I kinda purposely left the drywall off inside the closet so I can easily run electric to a light or additional outlets.
good calll@@Kordare
3:17 Genius
Gotta get creative when you do everything alone 🤘
Yep, I replayed that three times.
Beautiful job on your new room, Mr. Beautiful.
Thank you!
That was awesome!
🙌🙌
So satisfying to watch. The way you made it look so easy!! Just fantastic
Thanks for checking it out!
Brilliant! So very well done, young man!!!
Thanks a lot!
Dude, this is awesomeee! 😍✨
Thank you!
looks like lots of comments can't figure out what "adding a bedroom in 10 minutes means". protip: it means this 10 minute video is a compilation of the total construction time. it doesn't mean the room was built in 10 minutes.
You must be a scholar to figure that out 😂
Ok! Amazed!
🤘🤘
Wow, if only all of our hubbies could be so handy! Great job!
Thank you!
Bet you could be this handy too, if you applied yourself! No need to wait for hubby to do it for you. 🙂
@@splintercatBut then hubby would need to cook and clean and mind the children so she’d have time. So…maybe, maybe not.
Amazing work!!!!
Thank you!
This is golden content, I'm so impressed
Thanks for checking it out 🙌
Incredible. And really satisfying to watch!
Thank you!
Great Work, Dude !
Thank you!
Looks fantastic, although I see one huge issue, you didn't use "Pressure Treated Wood" on the bottom plates when you built the walls (the bottom parts of the 2x4's directly touching the concrete).
As concrete is porous and wicks water like a sponge. It may not happen immediately but when the concrete gets wet, whether it be from the water tank leaking, or just naturally from the ground underneath getting overly wet after a heavy rain, you're going to be dealing with the wood beginning to rot on the bottom since it's not pressure treated.
You should always use pressure treated wood on anything that is directly touching concrete, or being built outside to prevent the wood from rotting.
Yup I usually do but didn't on this project. The concrete is fully sealed and will not absorb water from the top and has never sweat so I don't think it is a big deal in this situation. I did use all treated bottom plates for the bathroom and laundry room I just built.
@@Kordare That's great to know and thanks for the reply! Keep up the amazing work with your projects! :)
Pressure treated or in our area, the code is for a strip of a kind of foam. It comes in rolls. It is installed between the welll and the concrete floor. Also not framing the stairwell wall seperate from the staircase, is going to lead to cracks in the drywall joints.
Crazy that he did this in only 10 minutes
Easy 😤
Hahaha!
Inevitable concern inbound
The stud spot having wire going through didnt have plates placed over them to protect the wire. The electrical is being junctioned at a receptacle instead of a junction box. Seems there might be a bit too high of a load on that one circut. The water heater accessibility has been reduced to the absolute minimum.
Inevitable praise.
Looks really nice, the trim and basebords look phenomenal. The addition of the door to the understairs was great, and it was an excellent use of the open space.
Thanks and I appreciate the concern. I added 3 devices to the circuit and code allows up to 10 on a 15A circuit. I made sure to give enough room to remove the water heater but yeah it is tight.
Place is starting to look really nice man! Loving this addition
Thanks a lot 🤘
@@Kordare For sure, keep up the good work g
Can’t wait to see a build on the master up stairs
Yess I need to do it soon 🙌
GENIOUS 👩🏽🦱👍👍👍
I like the little trick of hanging the tape nearby with a dab of spackle while taping the drywall.
Soooooo satisfying
Part of me would've preferred to do an exterior door for the water heater space and just wall in the inside & insulate the compartment vs the rest of the building, but that's probably much more expensive than just adding an access under the stairs like you did. Water heaters are a pain to move in small places & around corners.
i love this video, very inspired
🙌🙌
Great work I want to do work in my home
Thanks, you just gotta start!
Thank you. I enjoy learning from your videos.
🙌🙌
Talented. Wonder what that room will be used for. It'd be a nice bathroom.
Guest bedroom!
Videos like this make me wish I skipped college and apprenticed with a trade. Oh well, I'm 45 and still don't own a house, but my student loans are paid off lol.
Well I went to college and became a mechanical engineer but still do things like this for fun.
The true bedroom Harru Potter deserved.
Nice, now I’d be making a functional laundry room.
I just did, check it out here! ua-cam.com/video/lRgVx7tE0Z0/v-deo.html
Nice work, but good luck ever replacing your water heater without tearing down that wall!
Haha don't worry I measured and made sure I had plenty of clearance to remove the water heater
Hey just found your channel and subscribed - reviewed your past home build videos and the area just screamed PA to me haha - so your just right up the street from me.
You are correct 🤘
Great job 👍
Thank you!
In your area are the metal shields you put on the wood where wire is drilled through to protect from accidentally screwing into electrical wire (into the studs) not required by building code? (I think they're called stud cable protector plates? Or nail plates?)
Definitely for plumbing, don't think it's required for wiring
dunno about where he is, but in NY wiring definately doesnt need to be protected, though admittedly they should, imagine hammering in a nail only to nail right into a live wire, better hope your hammer has a rubber handle!
@@Kordare Protection (i.e., plates) are required when the edge of the hole you bored for the wire (not necessarily the wire itself) is less than 1-1/4" inches from the face of the stud. So a wire centered in a normal stud doesn't need protection, but in cases where you can't (or just don't) maintain that 1-1/4" distance then you have to.
So nice!
Thank you!
Nice Harry Potter’s room there under the stair.
😂😂
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽Nice!
Thank you!
No insulation in the room? It looks great! You have a lot of skill!
I decided not to, I like the ability to be able to run wires if needed in the future. Thank you!
I hope you have access and room to work on that water heater in the future!
I made sure it will come out easy!
Clean job!!! Good stuff
Thanks!
My idea adding a room is adding more sq foot not taking away from it😊
I built this place fully open with plans to do this 🤘
i dont like the situation with the two doors so close to each other, the rest is really nice
I didn't have much option there, thanks!
“I’m tired of this Sharon. I’m building my own room”
Yess
Great job! You made it look so easy. I didn't like the exposed stairs in the room, but hey. I'm not living there. 😄
Thank you!
how is this your first time doing any carpentry but you have all the trade tools ? you successfully were able to cut & hang dry wall, tape all your joints, frame the build, wire electrical, hang doors, paint, etc. ?? lol you must read instructions really well. nice work.
Haha I am getting pretty good at teaching myself through the resources available on the internet. Thank you!
I liked everything except the no insulation part and brown boards
Brown boards? Dry wall?
I congratulate you on a job well done. Obviously being a mechanical engineer gives you a big advantage, The video played in fast motion. You should have had audio instructions with your voice explaining the process in detail. Having this video play only for ten minutes as a novice and beginners, it is difficult to follow,. This is my ultimate dream. Hope you can remake this with more detail., Thank you!
Thanks a lot! I have detailed videos on every part of this build on my channel. This video was meant to be a quick overview 🙌
@@Kordare Thank you! I will check it out.👍🙌
I don't know for sure, but in Chicago area codes require conduit for electrical wiring....
Definitely not here when inside a wall
Fun to watch. I feel the room is kind of small. But great build none the less.
It's small but works well as a guest room. Thanks!
Hey Kordare could you maybe do some welding tip vids in the future for beginners?
I'll add it to the list!
I love watching these videos of how other peoples houses in other countries are built the same as we would build a shed to store things in the garden.
Serious question: why would you need to drywall a garden shed?
Merica
This is so easy when your house is from wood and hollow walls and no floor heating.
Yeah I guess
Aye congrats on the the new room
Thanks 🙌
One day I will learn how to do all the work to build rooms / add one

@@cre8tivegarage157 don't be afraid to just start! Most of the things I do on my channel are firsts for me.
Apperciate that motivation
Why no insulation in the dry wall walls? Can you use polystyrene sheet? Or Rocwool ? Even expanding foam would help noise n heat.
I like the ability to run wiring in the future if needed. It's also just a guest room
Insulation would have been good. Done before the interior wallboard goes in. Looks like a basement room. So insulation should have been included. I had a basement bedroom & it was cold.
No this is on the first floor
Insulate and drywall underside of stairs
Maybe in the future, for now it's just a guest room
what program do you use to 3D model everything?
This one was SketchUp, to do my full house I used chief architect. To design parts usually pro/E Creo
@@miscosas every city and country is different, so just go to your local government to ask them what their process is for renovations and building permits.
Smart!
🙌🙌
Be aware that is there is not egress to the outside (like if this is a basement space without a door/stairs up to ground level outside) you cannot list this bedroom in any ads (it also does not count for appraisal purposes).
Did you not see the window in the middle of the room? This also is not in a basement. It's on the first floor
Nice work. I wonder if having two doors adjacent each other is a good idea though 🤔
Works fine for me 🤷♂️
Nice room! There are only two things I would suggest. I noticed you didn't dry wall the closet. Any reason for that? Also, you know that stair rail isn't up to code, right?
Thanks! I left it open since I might want to add some more outlets or lights in there in the future. And yeah it was up to code but I took out the slats because I liked this look better
Kudos to his build 👏...but with that being said...whats happens when his water heater needs to be replaced or even worked on?
Thanks! Don't worry I made sure there is enough room to get the water heater out.
thats dope
Thanks 🙌
He’s gonna regret those closet doors. 😂
Love them 🙌
I may have missed something but it seemed like all the electric load went on one circuit?
Yeah it's two outlets and a light bulb. That circuit can have up to ten devices on it
Looks incredible! Great work.
Impressive that you did all that in 10 minutes.
🤘🤘
@@Kordare 😁
Not so much adding a bedroom as cleverly splitting a room to create a bedroom. Very impressive though, but as somebody else posted: I would have put some insulation under the stairs.
Yeah I may in the future, but it's just a guest room for now and the upstairs isn't finished so there isn't any foot traffic.
Great room! My question is wouldnt you want to insulate the stairs or something to cut the noise from walking up and down? Just a question all
Thanks! Yes some would want to do this. But for me I liked the look and it's only a guest room so I left it.
Why didn't you drywall the inside of the closet and the area to the underside of the stairs inside the bedroom??
Liked the look of the stairs. Closet because I might do more electrical at some point. Just a guest room.
Nice job! Turned out great. Did you guys add heating/cooling to the room?
Thank you! There was already a baseboard heater in the room. Eventually will cut in a duct for central a/c.
Might consider insulating the stairs and closing that in with drywall.. so anyone coming downstairs is not disturbing anyone sleeping.
True but I like the look for now. It's just a guest room anyway.
The DIY Harry Potter room.
To me honestly turned a bedroom into 2 closets
It's a guest room so it works perfectly 🤘
@@Kordare Fine for a guest room but the "MASTER" Still is what I class as a 8x4 cell
This is crazy. It takes me 10 minutes to poop and this guy builds a whole new bedroom in the same amount of time.
I would have extended the bedroom wall all the way to the bottom step. And carpet.
I wanted to keep that area for my dining table. I've also since added a large rug to the room
Wow
Such a big water heater - could you use one half that size?
I'm not sure, I believe it was based off future added bedrooms and bathrooms
