- I recently walled in my carport to make a den. Here are the reasons why I did it.

A man like you with common sense could build whatever he needs and save a ton of money! Great job.
Wish I was handy like you. Struggling with idea of high costs to get an addition to our tiny house but desperate for more space! Look forward to the finished product.
Hopefully you don’t get termites in you new addition. It would have been smart to build a concrete curb 8” above grade to keep the framing above grade, and the siding at least 6” above grade.
Nice to have that added space already roofed.
Jack your quite handy..but know you have done lots of this type stuff redoing many of your properties. Great how too content and appreciate you sharing your experiences. Keep cool in our beautiful Florida ☀️...continued success for you and your Lil family 😇🇺🇸👍
Thanks 👍 Charles!
Sounds like they are being fair at the Building Dept. I am the Deputy BO/Chief Inspector/Plans Examiner at a building department near Orlando, FL. I also draw plans on the side, just not in my jurisdiction.
Yeah no moonlighting means no conflict of interest. Gotta love gerrymandering
Eugene approves of walling in a carport
Yak or Jack idk but I just randomly found your channel by clicking on your Pensacola/Italian restaurant video. I moved to Chattanooga Tn 7 years ago but am born/raised in Pensacola/Santa Rosa are. Very home sick but your videos made me feel right at home. Going to subscribe right now! Thanks for the Pensacola videos..especially food and fishing
Welcome aboard! Thanks for watching!
Good job Jack. Looks good and like you say you can always use the extra room.
Thanks!
Great video, subscribed and will be watching part 2. I live in Central FL 10 min to the beach. Its amazing how things change in a 2 yr period. Leaving FL and going to GA, purchasing a couple acres with LG horse barn. Looking to take that one side of the main barn, lean to and converting to living space. After that, will probably take a good portion of the lofted area in the barn. Disabled so can't finish it but will help me lay it out and figure out some costs. Thank you for sharing.
Good job Jack that makes a nice little addition to your house and with little Jack you're going to need the room has somebody that has been in construction their whole life the only thing different I would have done is for some concrete in between the brick pillars on the one side where the water comes through to mount the bottom plate too it all in all great job👍
Be Kind...
It looks nice, and it did pass inspection.
I would have put the doors on the side so you have a little courtyard for grilling.
I think it looks great, and u put a lot of thought into your design. It’s true about the older homes, nothing is square!
and if it was, the rainwater would just sit there,
Truly Awesome work! I'm looking to do mine within the next year or so
Good for you dude
Nice job !
For your UA-cam videos Why am I not surprised
it's because of the lamp at 9:20
I love you you continuously change your focused topics with always the focus on educating your viewers.
Thanks Zack. Just having fun making videos!
Wow..your carport is set up the same as my brick 1960 house. I want to do the same
I looks great Jack, Just remember this is Florida and you can't have too much insulation.
Looks good, thanks for sharing.
Thanks for this, Jack.
My pleasure!
Well done captain!
Hey! How much did you spend on this?
He goes over costs at the end of the video, starting around the 18:00 minute mark
A much needed video!
A much-needed hyphen!
Check out a mini split AC unit. Much better than a window unit !!!!!
Especially when the only thing he put in with glass in it also has hinges and a latch.
Congratulations on the little guy
congrats on the playroom, since that's what it really is now
Looking good!
You could of labeled it as storage area and no permits needed. It all about the verbiage
Not here. It is still added sq footage to a house.
could have*, take it from a verbiage patrol officer
Good job!
Why not take out the brick columns and put wood ones up? Since all they are holding up is the carport roof, right? Looks awesome, love your down to earth no bullshit videos.
My wife and I are are thinking about buying a home on the gulf (my brother lives in Pensacola on Bayou Chico) and we were stunned how much homes on Navy Point are going for, if and when they are available. Have been looking at Gulf Breeze, and some other spots on the water that’s not the ocean.
We like the look of the pillars. Let me know if you need help finding a house! My email is jack.motley@adoorealestate.com
No, they're holding it DOWN. ^There's a difference.
Jack, your pillars would not be level but they might be plumb.
Great job
Some people would like the extra indoor space, but I wouldn't buy a house that doesn't have a garage, or at minimum, a carport.
You did a good job with it though!
Bet you could have done without the wiring, too. A real off-the grid trooper.
Nice build!
Thanks!
Good job .
Very good job
That's not easy or cheap to do
Only questionable thing is the ply
Plywood doesn't expand etc
Only solid wood does against the grain from what I understand
But looks very good and great equity in your house
yeah but if you seal it on just one side, wet ply will warp like nothing you've ever seen.
🎉thank you!!!!
Thank you
Awesome add on! What flashing did you use at the bottom of the framing? I am going to do the same project here in Lake Ckunty, Fl. Thanks!
What is going on with that desktop, bro? Stacks on stacks of stuff!
Good work, I always enjoy watching your videos.
I have no idea
I want to do this to my house to use the extra space as a new kitchen. My only concern is the ceiling height out there is about 7.5ft so to make it comfortable we would need to probably take that part of the roof off and raise it. Also wondering how difficult it would be to get water/sewer out there.
Literally his whole fromt yard is cement paved so there's going to be nowhere to park the cars while the bulldozer locates the tie=ins
I can taste that Emerald Republic beer but I don't smell any meat smoking on that green egg!
Do you have any thoughts on the stairs? How can you hide those? I’m having that problem. I’m doing the same thing you are.
We are designing the next step now.
So did you mean to put the door in backwards, doors swing in Hinges on the inside , threshold on the outside. Is the door windstorm compliant. You will need a windstorm inspection.
It is an outward swinging door. That is the hurricane code here.
@@YakMotley O K That makes sense
@@YakMotley So is that door made to swing out,? It just looks like a normal Home Depot door. The other one costs close to two thousand dollars. I would bet that door would leak in any heavy blowing rain. It will blow right past the weather stripping, especially where the doors meet. Is it wind rated?
Hey great video. I have a question. Because I have a similar carport and thinking about closing. Could you have supported the roof with steel post and took down the brick to give you more space? I'm actually going to use it as a one car garage and taking down the brick pillars will give me more side space.
Sure but that would be a lot of work. The brick pillars look really cool in the room right now.
It's all good until mama rips a toe open on the brick protrusion, then out comes the fiberglass disc saw
What was the total cost of this project? Because I would like to do the same.
Thank you for you video.. is it possible to get a copy of your apporved plans.
Do you have a video or pictures of the completed project?
Just run the duct through the brick...not a hard process...ALOT cheaper than an ac unit. Also its your property your doing the work dont get an inspection fuck the permit all they want is to increase your property tax value
What did you use on the bottom of the framing to seal off from outside water?
And what product did you use between framing and brick columns ?
Flex seal in a can, and thin beads of polybutyl caulk between the vinyl side shingles.
Gonna have to quit watching you. You are very entertaining and informative. You also seem pretty intelligent. Clemson Fan??? Can't believe anything you've ever said now. :)
they ask you for a architect or engineer?? to pull the permits??
no
Can't wait to see what the increase in your property taxes will be
lol prolly another 200 bucks a year. The accessor already showed up lol
You’d be surprised…it’s not as much as you think, I used to be a county property appraiser in the area.
@@mxer515 thar he is
How long did this take you roughly?
I live about 20 miles away from you. Let me know if you ever need a hand!!
can you pound some nail head into some hardass wood?
😁🖖👌✌👍😎
We should do a UA-cam video together. I could help you, give me a holla! I'm a licensed architect. Great video!
You talk too much without showing anything useful.
