    When we completed our first bathroom, we were over the moon! A real flushing toilet was a life changer for our family, and THEN a HOT shower!!
    But now our life is about to be elevated again. We’re starting our SECOND bathroom in our cabin kit home
    We’re only starting by covering the walls and ceilings, but this lets us peak into the, not so distant, future and start dreaming about the day that we live in our house with our kids and have TWO flushing toilets and TWO showers with unlimited hot water.
    Life just keeps getting better and better over here, and we’re excited to take you along for the ride.
    Follow along as we start our loft bathroom in our self built house.
    **********************************************************
    And now a little back story on us, in case you just found us on UA-cam. We’re Sara and Ryan. We are your average suburban family, but 10 years ago, we purchased a raw piece of land in the Hood Canal in Washington. We’ve been developing this piece of property slowly, and this year we knew it was time to go all in. So we purchased a log cabin kit home and decided that 2020 would be the year we built a house on our property. We plan to build this cabin (as much as we can) on our own.
    Unfortunately, some unforeseen events in 2020 that were completely out of our hands put a delay on our cabin kit being produced and delivered in the time frame we had originally planned. While we could have just waited it out and pushed back starting on the build of our home, we decided to shift gears and change our course for the time being. We purchased a 30 foot yurt, and will be setting it up as additional living space when we begin to build our cabin.
    In the summer of 2021, we FINALLY moved to the Hood Canal so we could start the build of our future home. While we are building our home, we are living in a camper trailer and the yurt that we built in the summer of 2020. We hope to have our cabin kit home built by the end of 2023. Just my husband and I are building the house. We get help here and there from friends along the way and we do plan to get help on the roof but other than that we are doing it all on our own.
    Follow along with us as we build our dream in the Hood Canal.

    Wet on the underside of the timber is bad news. It looks like some extra work to ventilate and seal is needed.

    • @OneFootOfftheGrid
      @OneFootOfftheGrid  4 місяці тому

      I think when we installed the exhaust for the hot water, I didn't seal up the insulation in that bay properly. I'm hoping that is the issue. I'll continue to monitor it after we have it sealed properly. We had super cold temps outside and we were heating the inside

      The vanity outlet is a GFCI, the one that I added was connected to the load side of the plug and therefore is also GFCI protected. Maybe I didn't make that clear in the video but we made sure to get it right.

    • @OneFootOfftheGrid
      @OneFootOfftheGrid  4 місяці тому

      It's definitely been challenging to build with the high ceilings. I "think" it will all be worth it once we are getting to enjoy the high ceilings, but ask us again in a few years once we've lived in it and we can give you a better answer.

    Is your roof considered a hot roof?
    I’m in the process of installing the ductwork for air to circulate to the vent at the ridge

    • @OneFootOfftheGrid
      @OneFootOfftheGrid  4 місяці тому

      I think it is. We left a 2" -3" air gap above the insulation. So air flows up through the soffits and out the ridge vent.

We did just put an episode out, though, and after next weekend, we should be done with the move and should get back to our regular life of building our house.

    I've always wondered, is this the Alpine Ridge kit from Conestoga? Or is it custom?
    Also is this pine or cedar? And how was your experience with the kit in general?
    Asking because I'm looking for prow roofed 3 bed plan as well!

    • @OneFootOfftheGrid
      @OneFootOfftheGrid  4 місяці тому

      It is the Alpine Ridge with pine interior shiplap and t&g. Our experience has been very good so far. We were one of the first orders that shipped after they shut down for Covid, so there were a few hickups as they got their plant up and running again, but they were very easy to work with and made everything right.

    “Simple Life Reclaimed” are UA-camrs and they went through the same thing with the condensation. You might email them and ask how they fixed it. Unfortunately…. I believe they had to redo their ceiling. I know they did a LOT of investigating because they didn’t want to have to redo it. 😞👍🏼
