I honestly want you to build two different types of things for me in two different places but I'd rather explain to you what i would like and want and need in person whenever the time comes
Five years of university and not one prof had my attention for 27 minutes straight like you did. Great information, great video, straight to the point and I suspect grate feedback from this video.
@@richardpetker4337 you are assuming auto correct didn’t have something to do with it. You got the just of it without having to publicly humiliate him. Have a grate day!
You'll never need to worry about cutting the wrong size, spin in circles or waste time trying to figure out what goes where... With ryan's detailed shed plans ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxT9ExVpR-3A-9rpRqx8vzXKZ3BMMTg_KH , it makes building sheds a breeze - just like putting lego bricks together! You'll be able to create the kind of shed, your neighbors and other woodworkers will secretly envy (while mumbling nice job under their breath).
Never “bored” with any of your videos Kyle. Always very informative and well-spoken to be in-depth but not overwhelming material content. Keep up these kinds of informative style videos as it helps us gain knowledge from a true “honest” builder. And let’s not forget what Greg brings to the videos as well. You both are hilarious.

One important piece I'd like to add that pertains to post frame homes. There are a lot of questions about the lending and bank approval. The most important thing when going to your lender is to say you're building a HOUSE, not barndo, not shouse, don't start off with anything pertaining to post frame or a "barn"
I appreciated the video very much. I've been a carpenter for 44 years. Framed somewhere between 400 to 500 homes. And now I run a very high end carpentry business. I have a huge respect for you and have learned so much. I'm tired of driving into Arlington or DC to work over 50 miles each way. I want to build my own shop, then help 2 friends build theirs and then start doing it as a business out in the country where I live. Thanks very much, Sincerely Paul Spangenberg
All the talk about heating is so foreign to me, being in Louisiana. Now, I'll take all the AC I can get... it's 118 degrees in my shop right now but rarely gets below 40 in the winter. As soon as I have an extra $10k I will be insulating and adding AC. Great video!
Trust me, this is going to help more than ten people!! I live in the north and have been going back and forth on types of post settings and insulation and I have now pretty much made up my mind thanks to this video. You might think it is boring, but to those who actually plan to do this themselves, the more details and thought processes we can get may be the key to success.
this is the BEST video i have ever seen when looking for building information. consise, quick but not too fast, incredibly detailed, no horrible music to distract - beautiful in all ways. wow. i thank you for this info. i DO need it right now and thank you for not babbling on about all the stuff you have! in my opinion and that of others this has been shared with, you could not have done a more superior job. NOT boring. WONDERFUL. EXCELLENT. Thank you again.
Go to building department for permit. After architect, engineer, soils engineer, power, water and sewer connection fees, and permit fees and property tax you’re broke.
I completely understand that a lot of UA-cam creators are hesitant to do what they think is boring vids. Your fans asked for it and you delivered. Also you have great build series. I catch myself watching from start to finish on lunch break and what have you. I’m a builder fabricated and I still watch these. Knowing some material already. More often than not you show a little trick or a detail that’s is completely awesome. I’ve been planning my own build and I’m gonna do a post frame slash timber frame Barndominium and a lot of your info has been crucial. Thanks again for making these videos. Great job and keep up the good work.
Just so you know... it is NOT a waste of time nor boring. While I enjoy your builds and I learn tons watching them, the nuts-n-bolts of getting TO the build are just as important. I had already figured out a several of your points, but your insight has given me even more to consider before deciding on a design, a size and a builder. The only thing I would have added to your first point is to consider zoning constraints if the building is to be lived in. Super important to be sure the locality will ALLOW it before putting the building up and beginning that DIY tiny home inside. So THANK YOU for the video and don't be afraid to share more insight in the future. I greatly appreciate your humility and reasoning when it comes to giving advice. We ALL should be able to admit we don't know everything and I continue to learn EVERY day of my life.
I've been watching you for a year or two. I wasn't bored. I think this was a good summary of who you are. What you build. What a new comer can learn about on your channel. Great job ... Now go finish that barndominium
After watching and enjoying your channel for the last few years, you have persuaded me to build a barndominium instead of traditional stick frame home and separate shop. Thanks for all your insight and knowledge! Keep up the good work and content!
Great info, Kyle. Thanks for finally sitting down and doing this topic. I would love to see a video of pre-build lead up…how you plan a build, material list, how you know what lengths of metal to order to limit waste, etc.
Kyle, great video! My wife and I are in the process of buying land and looking to build. Honestly the post frame/barndominium style is just something I’ve considered. Your videos, by far, have the most valuable content on the internet. I learn something every time I watch!
Same here! We are looking in far North Dallas. Right piece of land is important but, the builder.........WAY more important - IMO. Good luck with your build!
Hey Kyle, I've been watching you channel for a while now and I wanted to say I am inspired by you and RR buildings. I started a handyman business in March this year and it has gone really well, I'm working on getting my contractor's liscense by studying to pass the NASCLA exam. One day I hope to build awesome post frame buildings like you do. That is my dream. And I'm glad that you are on youtube passing on your knowledge, I have no background in construction I'm 23 and have worked retail the last 6 years and if it wasn't for people like you on youtube passing on what you have learned I wouldn't be here. Thank you.
I completely agree with the metal frame doors. I'm 56, and I grew up framing residential homes in Oklahoma with my dad and subcontracted my first house from him when I was 17, and I can say from experience that doors with wood frames are the number 1 thing I see being replaced, and there are so many different factors on how long they last before water rot sets in so bad that they need to be replaced. very informative video, Kyle. I've been watching your videos for a few years now, and you always seem to show informative content. I'm an electrician now for nearly 10 years. My hope is that soon I will buy a chunk of land and build something on it, and your Post-Frame builds inspire me to go with that instead of the usual footer and stemwall and slab. Radiant heat really seams to be the way to go to warm a place; it seams like keeping the floor warm and the heat rising through the room would be more efficient than not. I know if my feet are warm, I can handle a colder temperature than I could otherwise, so the logic just kind of carries over. I zoning in Oklahoma is important as anywhere but size is also, and fire truck access is important, depending on how far from the street your home is. A lot of streets in Oklahoma that dead end have to have a circle for fire trucks to turn around in. You really brought out some good points to consider when building, and it may make people think of making sure the land they buy, if they haven't already bought, is allowed to build what they want before they buy the land! Electricity is not so hard to get into a home; it's easy to come and put a meter can on the building and nipple through into a panel. I would say it is easier to wire before insulation, but I think most of your post builds don't get too elaborate with Lighting and plugs. I don't think I would want to be the guy to wire a new place that has all the insulation lol; I noticed on one of your builds a couple of years back where the electrician bundled the wire going through the attic and built some kind of wood gutter for it to rest in, and while it looked neat and clean, you have to derate the ampacity of the wire, and the runs looked pretty long. I just that just as an FYI because when electric wire is bundled and not able to dissipate heat because of the bundling, that would be anything more than 3 current carrying conductors (FYI the white wire or the Neutral wire in a nominal 120 volt circuit is carrying current back to the source) bundled together or run in a conduit. It may be something that takes time to see the damage, but the heat that is not able to dissipate heat due to bundling or whatever, will begin to cause problems over time that can be costly, so I just say it by way of FYI. I've seen inspectors red tag an inspection for zip tying Romex 12/2 in groups of 3 running along a joist just before coming down to the panel. It's not that uncommon to see electricians do this, so I just thought I would put it out there as knowledge! Thanks for sharing your knowledge. I've always respected the attitude that you present yourself with while sharing your builds. Oh, and I noticed you've come up nearly 100k subscribers in just around a month. You may not make 1M before January, but if it keeps growing like this, it may be close! You deserve it. you have a good channel that can help people in the trade, for sure! I'm one of those kind of people that likes to do everything himself. The more you do, the more you build your skill. I'm sure everyone that does a trade relates to that!
Well I thought it was boring at first UNTIL he explained about frost walls and in floor heating, but I did catch the insulation and electrical part, if sprayed how do u run the conduit & than if sprayed all over wires, can u do that? Or how would u do that???
@@beths.5678 If you watch his most recent video, he actually shows the conduit runs, but whether you run conduit or Romex, you can easily run either after the insulation. If you watch the video, a video is worth more words than I can type here, but I'll say that all the electrical fastens to wood members that lay over the insulation and wrap inside. He shows a little bit of it in his most recent video.
Spot on. All of your tips are right on the mark. The SF one hit home because I never gave a SF number. I would tell them give me a week, whatever and I will give you a price you can go to the bank with. If it was a complicated remodel I would set up a meeting on site with each of the major subs. I would have the homeowner meet with each of them. I would then get back numbers that were real. Each sub has seen the job, seen potential issues and could provide the homeowner some value engineering. This method lead to less on the fly changes later on, a solid bid and much more informed clients who were comfortable working with me. I wasn't just picking numbers out of a hat. Now I must say in todays market we have to preface the conversation with the volatile market we are in and the spiraling costs we face across the board.
Kyle love all your videos. I'm hoping to move on a Homestead. Years ago I actually renovated my house. I took everything down to bare stud. When I get my homestead I feel comfortable doing building projects. My mom asked me how I learned all this stuff. My reply was this old house. But I truly can say I have learned a lot from your channel.
Here's the item we found in building last year. We left our interior unfinished until funds allowed for floor and heat. It was to have a split wall to wall off the 'shop' space from cold storage. Now, we're leaving it all open short of a 40x20 space for horse stalls, and the rest will be open/heated. We've upgraded our camper in 2021, my use needs have changed slightly for shop space. As you said, you'll always want it bigger, but your needs may change over time, so keep that in mind for your planning and construction. We overbuilt out building a bit to plan for a loft, solar on the roof etc. Cannot express how much I enjoy and learn from your videos. While I built a steel frame last year, so many of your trim and siding techniques were so valuable to us.
Kyle you show that you take pride in your work, and do whatever it takes to give your client a high quality build. I wish videos like this were available when I had my house built many years ago. It would have saved me a lot of headaches. Great video Kyle.
As a dork who works for a county, I think it's cool you're mentioning this stuff. So many pissed people trying to build on land they bought and extra pissed that it's THEIR land and they can't even build an outhouse. All this stuff you mentioned is priceless!! Real estate people will pretend not to know what you can do on this land they're selling you. Size, use, setbacks, drainage. Imagine even building something and your neighbors down the hill wonder what you're doing. It all sucks but what does it hurt to check all this first? I wish you lived where I live. I'd totally hire you hands down.
Great video and very timely for me Kyle, thank you. I'm the one person you helped by making this video. I'm planning on putting up a 40x60 next spring. I think I'm going to have to do most of it myself but what you said about foundations and plumbing and everything else made a lot of sense. You might have changed my thinking and decision process a bit. Thanks for this video and all the others you have made, excellent material!
Man I wish I could have given this video to my father-in-law about 5 years ago. He had a utility building done, and at the recommendation of a family member, went with all steel post and beam on slab. The contractor was out of state (more local to the family member) and they had a lot of delays before it was finally done. If I had been able to show him this video, he might have made some different decisions. Thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge and experience.
This should be mandatory viewing for anybody getting ready for a building. It took me more than a year to figure out these details. Building permits in my county were trying to say the least. After I settled on a builder he was able to get permits using his plans and the surveys I had done. I really like my in floor heat.
Kyle , you area NATURAL! I am a retired ‘builder/ cabinet maker’ and I also have a college background in telecommunication! Getting ready to build a ‘long - needed Storage/ woodshop/ upper level man cave- post frame! You have been so helpful in planning this build and after watching quite a few of your videos I am really impressed with your professionalism and honesty about cost etc! I can’t tell you how many times I have heard “ Chris , how much will it cost me to remodel my Kitchen or Bath etc! You might as well ask “ Chris - how much will a new car cost me?” Biggest lie in the world - oh It will only cost x amount of dollars to build a building of ANY KIND! Are we talking Ferrari’s or KIAs . Might be a ‘slight price difference 😎!
Excellent video Kyle. My friend was having a 38x45 garage built. I sent him a few of your videos to watch. They were very helpful to him and I didn't have to spend all day at the job sight answering all his questions. Lol. Keep up the great work.
Dude! This video helps sooo much! We are in the planning process on building a barndominium! We are excited! We are doing it ourselves, not knowing how to do some things get stressful, but then finding videos like this helps us a ton! Thank you for taking the time to make this! I hope SimpliSafe is writing you a nice size check for this information 👏🏼😂
@@RRBuildings смотрю тебя из России ,очень интересный и поучительный канал . А ты очень 0 хороший специалист . Но я язык английский не понимаю . Возможно ли добавить субтитры на русском языке?
Let me know how you dealt with your local guidelines. I can't get a post frame building approved out here without some extremely expensive engineered plans.
This video and your knowledge helped tremendously. Boring yes, but it helped, LOL. I’m fixing to talk to some builders to do a post frame and there’s a couple things you mentioned I haven’t thought of in designing what I want. I’ve been watching your videos for years and your quality of work is amazing. The progression of your buildings has been amazing. Obviously it shows that you are always trying to get better at building post frames. Quality work is hard to find. Your customers I’m sure are all thankful they found a great builder! Keep the videos coming!
I've been enjoying watching your videos for some time now. I realize that you can't travel all over the country building for people, that isn't practical nor could most people afford the quality. This video is great and I'm glad you are selling plans. This will be invaluable because if we can't have you and your team build at least we can find a skilled builder to follow your details that add quality to the building. Thanks so much for all your hard work filming, editing, building. Keep up the amazing work.
Hey I’ve been a subscriber from Indiana for what seems like since the beginning n I just wanted to say in happy to see your almost at a million subs❤️ u definitely bring a lot of knowledge to this table in a clear way of quality work.
I watched all 27:51 seconds and didn't find this boring at all. I am watching your build series now, and have asked myself many times, "How can I find someone that builds like this guy and who will take the time to do it right." Thanks for taking the time to do this video. My wife and I are considering a barndominium build in central Ohio. I am from the Texas Gulf Coast, so slab-on-grade is all I know. I appreciate the insight on frost lines and foundation considerations. Keep making videos; I'll keep watching.
Thank you for all you do. I enjoy watching you build and explain in detail throughout the process. You are the number one post frame builder in America, hands down.
This was exactly what I needed. Thank you Kyle, I hate to see people recreate the wheel in life, and I really appreciate that you are helping me and my family from recreating the wheel. Thank you!!!
This Video Sealed the Deal. I've been following your videos and I'm going post-frame as opposed to the very popular red-iron floating slab so common here in Texas. I'm self-building and I'm very confident I can get it right. Your information has been invaluable.
By no means was this video boring Kyle. You have provided alot of valuable information. Found out last week that the county will not permit a structure like The Cabin In The Woods. Initially, they approved it, but the county engineer said no. Code changes going into effect before construction starts, as well as not being able to get insurance for it due to living in a hurricane zone. Best route is to build a house and separate storage building. Looking at a 60 by 80 building. Will look at your website for plans. Hope you had a good Thanksgiving an stay warm, be safe and see you on the next video.
I think it would be good to hear your perspective on good vs. bad customers. What kind of expectations to have, how to deal with problems with contractors, what kind of problems to expect, how to resolve problems with contractors, etc.
Thank you for making this video! You answered many of my questions and provided more options to consider. I'm sure I am not the only viewer to appreciate this one.
Dude this video was indeed so valuable to me! Very glad you did it. You may not understand the value that you are bringing to people who are going down this path. These are generally not the ordinary type of build client, and having someone as experienced as you to provide advice is worth a lot. I just wish that you did work in NV, the "final resting place" that I'm going to build will be pretty cool. P.S. I found you through Risinger.
To help with your explanation on why radiant floor heating is so nice: Thermal mass and surface area are why it is nice. Using a 4" slab and 16' ceiling height as an example, with the building closed up and the floor and air at the same temperature, the 4" concrete floor has 37 times as much heat in it as the 16' of air above it does. When the door opens and the cold air rushes in pushing the hot air out, the concrete immediately starts giving up heat to the air over the entire surface of floor (contrast that floor surface area to the surface area in an air heater). The amount of heat stored in the thermal mass of concrete is so large in comparison to the heat required to restore the temperature of the mass of the air above it, the concrete gives up relatively little heat to recover the temperature of the mass of air above it and does not drop in temperature much at all. The floor simply stores a huge amount of heat to warm the cold air and is released very quickly restoring the air temperature to nearly what it was before the door was opened. The last degree or so of air and floor temperature is then recovered slowly as the boiler adds more heat into the building.
This has to be the best informational video you’ve ever done. Clear, concise, and well-thought out. Love the build videos, but this should be required viewing for anyone considering building this type of structure. Keep up the exceptional work, Kyle. You’re killing it! Enjoy your hard-earned, much-deserved success! 💪👍
Thanks a lot Kyle!! We are planning on building a 40x88 Barndo this spring. Just drew up the plans today. Already have my driveway and pad prepared. Got all my brackets. Gonna do most of it myself with the help of family. Now let’s get this winter over with!
This was truly informative! Thank you. I’ve been following you and especially your barndo build, and I really appreciate your concentration on “quality” work. Thank you for what you do. I pray when I start my project I find a builder like you in the area I plan to build.
Great video and agree 100% on your 10 things to consider. I watched a lot of your videos during the construction of my building in 2019 and was a huge help, and your buildings and quality of construction are truly inspiring - thank you! So many of the things you mentioned in this video were exactly my thoughts as I was making plans for my building.
I’ve been watching your videos for about 6 months and several other barndo channels- by far I get the best info with details I need to know on your channel. This was a great video- subtle points like radiant heat in the shop is great info but it’s only great info before you build. Definitely a few takeaways from this - thanks for helping us and taking the time to post.
Was going to build then found an old commercial building for $6/sqft! But then leased it out... so now I need to build! To me concrete stem wall is the way to go.
Thank you so much for this video! I've been looking into different building types and methods for building our new house. Stick build? SIP build? Post Frame build? Which is the most efficient with heating? Which can be built faster? Which can last the longest? Everything I've come across points to a Post Frame building. At first I wanted in floor heat, but that almost requires a slab foundation and I don't want the plumbing buried in the concrete. SIP buildings require all the window and door placement, plumbing and electrical layout done by an engineer before the panels are manufactured. So many positive things about SIP buildings, but so many upfront expenses with all the planning. Post Frame building offers more flexibility in the planning/building stages. I want to keep costs down without sacrificing my plans for the finished project. With your videos I'm finding information that is pointing me in an educated direction. I want a safe, secure, and efficient building that can be used as a house shell. Thanks for the video!
This is one of the best videos I've watched about post frame buildings. It's full of very useful information and certainly not boring. Kyle you are doing a great job explaining things to us viewers! I have now subscribed to your channel. I'm in the preplanning process of a garage. I'm looking to build a 25x30 garage some time in the near future..
s is perfect! Thanks so much! Just purchased the land and have gone through about 30 pages of sketches on a legal pad. I know you will have many people say this...but THANK YOU!
Kyle, I have been watching your videos for a while now. Very informative and you make everything look so easy. I was surprised to see that you're less than an hour from where I live in Geneseo. Love your work and maybe we'll run into each other someday.
I think that this is a very good video with nice information. I would like more information on the two different radiant heating just to enplane better. I know how its done in some homes. Thanks for doing these videos.
I am a new subscriber been about 4days and I have seen many of your builds. Too Bad I don't live in Indiana I would diffidently have you as my builder. You do Great work and honest. I am an electrician but been in the construction world for more than 40Years. Guys like you are hard to find especially as young as you are. Just wanted to say keep it up, its great to see your work.
Level pad is an item that can be ignored due to usage. I'm finishing up a 10'x13' ft leanto off the side of a garage, with it's sole purpose to house 4 lawn tractors, a cement mixer, and few other yard power machines. The 36' long garage has (2) generations of same construction(2x6 framed floor at 16" centers with 2x4 walls on 16" centers and 16"spaced 2x4 rafters directly on top of the studs) attached enclosed in sheds making up the front 23', and the back 13' will be pole barn construction, the posts are PT 4x4, and the only compromiseing item used has been Simpson ABA electrogalvanized post bases, as I haven't found a hot dip galvanized post base
This was a really informative video. I want an 80x120 building that I can expand into, but that would cost about a million dollars to be fully done the way I want with radiant concrete floor, spray foam, air conditioning, lots of electricity, a portion framed out to be a nice bathroom, kitchen and dining/meeting area, etc. Way too infeasible to do at this point in time lol. That day will still come some time in the future though
Thank you, hoping to build in the next few years and after seeing your channel I am getting fired up. Only want a small and comfortable part time home for Lower Northern peninsula Michigan. Thanks again!.
Really appreciate that you took the time to make this video. I won’t be building for a few years but want to be ready when it’s time. Thank you very much!
I’ve built hundreds of houses and I get to a point where I’m with you I’m tired of explaining but you can’t answer every question with the same answer. My mom wants a house but she doesn’t know what she wants and trying to work with her is become a three-year chore.
This is the first time I've seen one of your videos and it was just what I needed to hear at the right time. So you now have a new subscriber, thanks for putting out good content.
Think about color combinations. Go online and look at photos and see if you like a blended look or high contrast for roof, wainscoting, garage doors, trim. Some may be too blended (boring); others might be too jarring (dark garage door against light siding). Your builder will have a small ring of color steel samples but try and get accurate color samples of steel from the garage door company as well as the steel siding and think about it for a couple days. Making a quick decision and changing it later will cost money with change order fees. Steel walk doors are a great idea but may only come in white - take the color chip the garage door company gave you and get the color matched so you can paint it. Save a piece of scrap trim to get it color matched to paint the walk door frame.
Super helpful. Looking to build a shop in North Idaho and we get a few feet of snow every winter that lasts several months. Lots of stuff to think about.
Thanks Kyle. I am in the market in 4+ years and this is just the kind of info I need to educate myself. I would hate to get retired and build my dream shop and not have it be the dream.
I appreciate the quality of your videos. I like watching a project being built. I like your recap videos like this one or the one on what it costs to build a project. Whatever your process you seem to be creating content that is worth watching more than once. Thanks.
Excellent video. Wish I had seen this 45 years ago before I built my 28 x 32 work shop. However, I excavated with a 9N Ford tractor and built it out of free scrap lumber and free scrap aluminum corrugated sheet for $640 which included wiring and lights and $435 for concrete floor. But I've been working on it ever since. I hope I would have had enough sense to build it differently if I had seen this. Probably not.

One important piece I'd like to add that pertains to post frame homes. There are a lot of questions about the lending and bank approval. The most important thing when going to your lender is to say you're building a HOUSE, not barndo, not shouse, don't start off with anything pertaining to post frame or a "barn"
Great tim Max!!
I appreciated the video very much.
I've been a carpenter for 44 years. Framed somewhere between 400 to 500 homes. And now I run a very high end carpentry business.
I have a huge respect for you and have learned so much. I'm tired of driving into Arlington or DC to work over 50 miles each way. I want to build my own shop, then help 2 friends build theirs and then start doing it as a business out in the country where I live.

If you are concerned about break-ins, have the doors swing out. Very hard to kick in a door that swings out.
All the talk about heating is so foreign to me, being in Louisiana. Now, I'll take all the AC I can get... it's 118 degrees in my shop right now but rarely gets below 40 in the winter. As soon as I have an extra $10k I will be insulating and adding AC. Great video!
More of this type of videos educating the clients, recalibrating their expectations, ARE NEEDED.
THANK YOU !!!
Trust me, this is going to help more than ten people!! I live in the north and have been going back and forth on types of post settings and insulation and I have now pretty much made up my mind thanks to this video. You might think it is boring, but to those who actually plan to do this themselves, the more details and thought processes we can get may be the key to success.
Thanks for the feedback
this is the BEST video i have ever seen when looking for building information. consise, quick but not too fast, incredibly detailed, no horrible music to distract - beautiful in all ways. wow. i thank you for this info. i DO need it right now and thank you for not babbling on about all the stuff you have! in my opinion and that of others this has been shared with, you could not have done a more superior job. NOT boring. WONDERFUL. EXCELLENT. Thank you again.
I'm from another country and I still found this video informative. Thank you!
Go to building department for permit. After architect, engineer, soils engineer, power, water and sewer connection fees, and permit fees and property tax you’re broke.
I completely understand that a lot of UA-cam creators are hesitant to do what they think is boring vids. Your fans asked for it and you delivered. Also you have great build series. I catch myself watching from start to finish on lunch break and what have you. I’m a builder fabricated and I still watch these. Knowing some material already. More often than not you show a little trick or a detail that’s is completely awesome. I’ve been planning my own build and I’m gonna do a post frame slash timber frame Barndominium and a lot of your info has been crucial. Thanks again for making these videos. Great job and keep up the good work.
Just so you know... it is NOT a waste of time nor boring.
While I enjoy your builds and I learn tons watching them, the nuts-n-bolts of getting TO the build are just as important. I had already figured out a several of your points, but your insight has given me even more to consider before deciding on a design, a size and a builder. The only thing I would have added to your first point is to consider zoning constraints if the building is to be lived in. Super important to be sure the locality will ALLOW it before putting the building up and beginning that DIY tiny home inside.
So THANK YOU for the video and don't be afraid to share more insight in the future. I greatly appreciate your humility and reasoning when it comes to giving advice. We ALL should be able to admit we don't know everything and I continue to learn EVERY day of my life.
I've been watching you for a year or two. I wasn't bored. I think this was a good summary of who you are. What you build. What a new comer can learn about on your channel. Great job ... Now go finish that barndominium
After watching and enjoying your channel for the last few years, you have persuaded me to build a barndominium instead of traditional stick frame home and separate shop. Thanks for all your insight and knowledge! Keep up the good work and content!
I thought the same until I saw ICF construction.. You can build a 'barndo' that is energy efficient and bullet proof..
@@FJB2020 +1
Barndo didn’t financially make sense when you make it actual living space. If home comfort is something you value, ICF makes sense
@Matt Harbert well in my situation a Bardo does makes sense. I want to build a large 40x80ft shop and have a section in the back as a apartment.
Great info, Kyle. Thanks for finally sitting down and doing this topic. I would love to see a video of pre-build lead up…how you plan a build, material list, how you know what lengths of metal to order to limit waste, etc.
Kyle, great video! My wife and I are in the process of buying land and looking to build. Honestly the post frame/barndominium style is just something I’ve considered. Your videos, by far, have the most valuable content on the internet. I learn something every time I watch!
Same here! We are looking in far North Dallas. Right piece of land is important but, the builder.........WAY more important - IMO. Good luck with your build!
Hey Kyle, I've been watching you channel for a while now and I wanted to say I am inspired by you and RR buildings. I started a handyman business in March this year and it has gone really well, I'm working on getting my contractor's liscense by studying to pass the NASCLA exam. One day I hope to build awesome post frame buildings like you do. That is my dream. And I'm glad that you are on youtube passing on your knowledge, I have no background in construction I'm 23 and have worked retail the last 6 years and if it wasn't for people like you on youtube passing on what you have learned I wouldn't be here. Thank you.
Did you pass your exam?
I completely agree with the metal frame doors. I'm 56, and I grew up framing residential homes in Oklahoma with my dad and subcontracted my first house from him when I was 17, and I can say from experience that doors with wood frames are the number 1 thing I see being replaced, and there are so many different factors on how long they last before water rot sets in so bad that they need to be replaced.
very informative video, Kyle. I've been watching your videos for a few years now, and you always seem to show informative content. I'm an electrician now for nearly 10 years. My hope is that soon I will buy a chunk of land and build something on it, and your Post-Frame builds inspire me to go with that instead of the usual footer and stemwall and slab. Radiant heat really seams to be the way to go to warm a place; it seams like keeping the floor warm and the heat rising through the room would be more efficient than not. I know if my feet are warm, I can handle a colder temperature than I could otherwise, so the logic just kind of carries over.
I zoning in Oklahoma is important as anywhere but size is also, and fire truck access is important, depending on how far from the street your home is. A lot of streets in Oklahoma that dead end have to have a circle for fire trucks to turn around in. You really brought out some good points to consider when building, and it may make people think of making sure the land they buy, if they haven't already bought, is allowed to build what they want before they buy the land!
Electricity is not so hard to get into a home; it's easy to come and put a meter can on the building and nipple through into a panel. I would say it is easier to wire before insulation, but I think most of your post builds don't get too elaborate with Lighting and plugs. I don't think I would want to be the guy to wire a new place that has all the insulation lol; I noticed on one of your builds a couple of years back where the electrician bundled the wire going through the attic and built some kind of wood gutter for it to rest in, and while it looked neat and clean, you have to derate the ampacity of the wire, and the runs looked pretty long. I just that just as an FYI because when electric wire is bundled and not able to dissipate heat because of the bundling, that would be anything more than 3 current carrying conductors (FYI the white wire or the Neutral wire in a nominal 120 volt circuit is carrying current back to the source) bundled together or run in a conduit. It may be something that takes time to see the damage, but the heat that is not able to dissipate heat due to bundling or whatever, will begin to cause problems over time that can be costly, so I just say it by way of FYI. I've seen inspectors red tag an inspection for zip tying Romex 12/2 in groups of 3 running along a joist just before coming down to the panel. It's not that uncommon to see electricians do this, so I just thought I would put it out there as knowledge!
Thanks for sharing your knowledge. I've always respected the attitude that you present yourself with while sharing your builds. Oh, and I noticed you've come up nearly 100k subscribers in just around a month. You may not make 1M before January, but if it keeps growing like this, it may be close! You deserve it. you have a good channel that can help people in the trade, for sure! I'm one of those kind of people that likes to do everything himself. The more you do, the more you build your skill. I'm sure everyone that does a trade relates to that!
Well I thought it was boring at first UNTIL he explained about frost walls and in floor heating, but I did catch the insulation and electrical part, if sprayed how do u run the conduit & than if sprayed all over wires, can u do that? Or how would u do that???
@@beths.5678 If you watch his most recent video, he actually shows the conduit runs, but whether you run conduit or Romex, you can easily run either after the insulation.
If you watch the video, a video is worth more words than I can type here, but I'll say that all the electrical fastens to wood members that lay over the insulation and wrap inside. He shows a little bit of it in his most recent video.
Spot on. All of your tips are right on the mark. The SF one hit home because I never gave a SF number. I would tell them give me a week, whatever and I will give you a price you can go to the bank with. If it was a complicated remodel I would set up a meeting on site with each of the major subs. I would have the homeowner meet with each of them. I would then get back numbers that were real. Each sub has seen the job, seen potential issues and could provide the homeowner some value engineering. This method lead to less on the fly changes later on, a solid bid and much more informed clients who were comfortable working with me. I wasn't just picking numbers out of a hat. Now I must say in todays market we have to preface the conversation with the volatile market we are in and the spiraling costs we face across the board.
Kyle love all your videos. I'm hoping to move on a Homestead. Years ago I actually renovated my house. I took everything down to bare stud. When I get my homestead I feel comfortable doing building projects. My mom asked me how I learned all this stuff. My reply was this old house. But I truly can say I have learned a lot from your channel.
Here's the item we found in building last year. We left our interior unfinished until funds allowed for floor and heat. It was to have a split wall to wall off the 'shop' space from cold storage. Now, we're leaving it all open short of a 40x20 space for horse stalls, and the rest will be open/heated. We've upgraded our camper in 2021, my use needs have changed slightly for shop space. As you said, you'll always want it bigger, but your needs may change over time, so keep that in mind for your planning and construction. We overbuilt out building a bit to plan for a loft, solar on the roof etc. Cannot express how much I enjoy and learn from your videos. While I built a steel frame last year, so many of your trim and siding techniques were so valuable to us.
Thank you , you leave no stone unturned to answer for building with real value as opposed to cheap and repeat . Great video.
Kyle you show that you take pride in your work, and do whatever it takes to give your client a high quality build. I wish videos like this were available when I had my house built many years ago. It would have saved me a lot of headaches. Great video Kyle.
I've learned so much from your videos that I will be implementing into my home.
As a dork who works for a county, I think it's cool you're mentioning this stuff. So many pissed people trying to build on land they bought and extra pissed that it's THEIR land and they can't even build an outhouse. All this stuff you mentioned is priceless!! Real estate people will pretend not to know what you can do on this land they're selling you. Size, use, setbacks, drainage. Imagine even building something and your neighbors down the hill wonder what you're doing. It all sucks but what does it hurt to check all this first? I wish you lived where I live. I'd totally hire you hands down.
Great video and very timely for me Kyle, thank you. I'm the one person you helped by making this video. I'm planning on putting up a 40x60 next spring. I think I'm going to have to do most of it myself but what you said about foundations and plumbing and everything else made a lot of sense. You might have changed my thinking and decision process a bit. Thanks for this video and all the others you have made, excellent material!
Nice, I'm also going to build a 30x40 shop this spring, these videos are great.
Man I wish I could have given this video to my father-in-law about 5 years ago. He had a utility building done, and at the recommendation of a family member, went with all steel post and beam on slab. The contractor was out of state (more local to the family member) and they had a lot of delays before it was finally done. If I had been able to show him this video, he might have made some different decisions. Thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge and experience.
This should be mandatory viewing for anybody getting ready for a building. It took me more than a year to figure out these details. Building permits in my county were trying to say the least. After I settled on a builder he was able to get permits using his plans and the surveys I had done. I really like my in floor heat.
Kyle , you area NATURAL! I am a retired ‘builder/ cabinet maker’ and I also have a college background in telecommunication! Getting ready to build a ‘long - needed Storage/ woodshop/ upper level man cave- post frame! You have been so helpful in planning this build and after watching quite a few of your videos I am really impressed with your professionalism and honesty about cost etc! I can’t tell you how many times I have heard “ Chris , how much will it cost me to remodel my Kitchen or Bath etc! You might as well ask “ Chris - how much will a new car cost me?” Biggest lie in the world - oh It will only cost x amount of dollars to build a building of ANY KIND! Are we talking Ferrari’s or KIAs . Might be a ‘slight price difference 😎!
So helpful as I continue to interview builders here in Atlantic Canada, Prince Edward Island...thank you Kyle 🙏🇨🇦😊
I'm glad you mentioned the steel framed man door. When I built my last shop I put a steel framed door and it's definitely worth it
Excellent video Kyle. My friend was having a 38x45 garage built. I sent him a few of your videos to watch. They were very helpful to him and I didn't have to spend all day at the job sight answering all his questions. Lol. Keep up the great work.
Dude! This video helps sooo much! We are in the planning process on building a barndominium! We are excited! We are doing it ourselves, not knowing how to do some things get stressful, but then finding videos like this helps us a ton! Thank you for taking the time to make this! I hope SimpliSafe is writing you a nice size check for this information 👏🏼😂
Lol let them know that

Let me know how you dealt with your local guidelines. I can't get a post frame building approved out here without some extremely expensive engineered plans.
This video and your knowledge helped tremendously. Boring yes, but it helped, LOL. I’m fixing to talk to some builders to do a post frame and there’s a couple things you mentioned I haven’t thought of in designing what I want. I’ve been watching your videos for years and your quality of work is amazing. The progression of your buildings has been amazing. Obviously it shows that you are always trying to get better at building post frames. Quality work is hard to find. Your customers I’m sure are all thankful they found a great builder! Keep the videos coming!
A must watch for anyone considering a pole barn.
I've been enjoying watching your videos for some time now. I realize that you can't travel all over the country building for people, that isn't practical nor could most people afford the quality. This video is great and I'm glad you are selling plans. This will be invaluable because if we can't have you and your team build at least we can find a skilled builder to follow your details that add quality to the building. Thanks so much for all your hard work filming, editing, building. Keep up the amazing work.
Insane amount of information in 27 mins good job should definitely help someone
Hey I’ve been a subscriber from Indiana for what seems like since the beginning n I just wanted to say in happy to see your almost at a million subs❤️ u definitely bring a lot of knowledge to this table in a clear way of quality work.
Thank you
I watched all 27:51 seconds and didn't find this boring at all. I am watching your build series now, and have asked myself many times, "How can I find someone that builds like this guy and who will take the time to do it right." Thanks for taking the time to do this video. My wife and I are considering a barndominium build in central Ohio. I am from the Texas Gulf Coast, so slab-on-grade is all I know. I appreciate the insight on frost lines and foundation considerations. Keep making videos; I'll keep watching.
I went from Louisiana to Michigan. Frost line of say inches to 5 or 6 feet. Big difference.
Sure is
Thank you for all you do. I enjoy watching you build and explain in detail throughout the process. You are the number one post frame builder in America, hands down.
Robert out of Ohio here Kyle. Looks like I was able to help with some content. Glad I could give some inspiration. Love the channel.
This was exactly what I needed. Thank you Kyle, I hate to see people recreate the wheel in life, and I really appreciate that you are helping me and my family from recreating the wheel. Thank you!!!
This Video Sealed the Deal. I've been following your videos and I'm going post-frame as opposed to the very popular red-iron floating slab so common here in Texas. I'm self-building and I'm very confident I can get it right. Your information has been invaluable.
I love this video. The last couple of minutes is key. As a contractor I can appreciate that!
By no means was this video boring Kyle. You have provided alot of valuable information. Found out last week that the county will not permit a structure like The Cabin In The Woods. Initially, they approved it, but the county engineer said no. Code changes going into effect before construction starts, as well as not being able to get insurance for it due to living in a hurricane zone. Best route is to build a house and separate storage building. Looking at a 60 by 80 building. Will look at your website for plans. Hope you had a good Thanksgiving an stay warm, be safe and see you on the next video.
I think it would be good to hear your perspective on good vs. bad customers. What kind of expectations to have, how to deal with problems with contractors, what kind of problems to expect, how to resolve problems with contractors, etc.
Bad customers = Don't pay on time
Thank you for making this video! You answered many of my questions and provided more options to consider. I'm sure I am not the only viewer to appreciate this one.
Dude this video was indeed so valuable to me! Very glad you did it. You may not understand the value that you are bringing to people who are going down this path. These are generally not the ordinary type of build client, and having someone as experienced as you to provide advice is worth a lot. I just wish that you did work in NV, the "final resting place" that I'm going to build will be pretty cool. P.S. I found you through Risinger.
Very little building experience but your channel is my favourite. Thinking of trying to replicate the shed you did.
Let me know how it goes
This is great. Only thing for prospective customers looking for a price per sq ft, it also depends on your city/state. Material price varies.
To help with your explanation on why radiant floor heating is so nice: Thermal mass and surface area are why it is nice. Using a 4" slab and 16' ceiling height as an example, with the building closed up and the floor and air at the same temperature, the 4" concrete floor has 37 times as much heat in it as the 16' of air above it does. When the door opens and the cold air rushes in pushing the hot air out, the concrete immediately starts giving up heat to the air over the entire surface of floor (contrast that floor surface area to the surface area in an air heater). The amount of heat stored in the thermal mass of concrete is so large in comparison to the heat required to restore the temperature of the mass of the air above it, the concrete gives up relatively little heat to recover the temperature of the mass of air above it and does not drop in temperature much at all.
The floor simply stores a huge amount of heat to warm the cold air and is released very quickly restoring the air temperature to nearly what it was before the door was opened. The last degree or so of air and floor temperature is then recovered slowly as the boiler adds more heat into the building.

This has to be the best informational video you’ve ever done. Clear, concise, and well-thought out. Love the build videos, but this should be required viewing for anyone considering building this type of structure. Keep up the exceptional work, Kyle. You’re killing it!
Enjoy your hard-earned, much-deserved success! 💪👍
Thanks a lot Kyle!! We are planning on building a 40x88 Barndo this spring. Just drew up the plans today. Already have my driveway and pad prepared. Got all my brackets. Gonna do most of it myself with the help of family. Now let’s get this winter over with!
How did it go?
Kyle nothing you do is boring!!! You are an excellent builder and the best metal building instructor!
This was truly informative! Thank you. I’ve been following you and especially your barndo build, and I really appreciate your concentration on “quality” work. Thank you for what you do. I pray when I start my project I find a builder like you in the area I plan to build.
Great video and agree 100% on your 10 things to consider. I watched a lot of your videos during the construction of my building in 2019 and was a huge help, and your buildings and quality of construction are truly inspiring - thank you! So many of the things you mentioned in this video were exactly my thoughts as I was making plans for my building.
You're right about the doors. I looked at a home with a post frame building on the property that had 11 or 12 foot ceilings and 7 foot garage doors
One of the persons who valued this video.
It is always good to see you Kyle.
I’ve been watching your videos for about 6 months and several other barndo channels- by far I get the best info with details I need to know on your channel. This was a great video- subtle points like radiant heat in the shop is great info but it’s only great info before you build. Definitely a few takeaways from this - thanks for helping us and taking the time to post.
Was going to build then found an old commercial building for $6/sqft! But then leased it out... so now I need to build! To me concrete stem wall is the way to go.
Very informative, not boring at all. I enjoy watching and learning from you videos. Keep them coming!
Thank you so much for this video! I've been looking into different building types and methods for building our new house. Stick build? SIP build? Post Frame build? Which is the most efficient with heating? Which can be built faster? Which can last the longest? Everything I've come across points to a Post Frame building. At first I wanted in floor heat, but that almost requires a slab foundation and I don't want the plumbing buried in the concrete. SIP buildings require all the window and door placement, plumbing and electrical layout done by an engineer before the panels are manufactured. So many positive things about SIP buildings, but so many upfront expenses with all the planning. Post Frame building offers more flexibility in the planning/building stages. I want to keep costs down without sacrificing my plans for the finished project. With your videos I'm finding information that is pointing me in an educated direction. I want a safe, secure, and efficient building that can be used as a house shell. Thanks for the video!
To 'know what you want' is an understatement.
Thank you! This will be a great reference video for people who haven’t watched all your videos and are exploring the post frame option.
This is exactly the type of video I needed to see. I will build a house in Southern Illinois in about five years. I inherited the land.
Kyle. Fantastic job explaining all the building information! Thank you so much for sharing! Really appreciate it and enjoyed your videos.
This is one of the best videos I've watched about post frame buildings. It's full of very useful information and certainly not boring. Kyle you are doing a great job explaining things to us viewers! I have now subscribed to your channel. I'm in the preplanning process of a garage. I'm looking to build a 25x30 garage some time in the near future..
s is perfect! Thanks so much! Just purchased the land and have gone through about 30 pages of sketches on a legal pad. I know you will have many people say this...but THANK YOU!
Great info. One piece of advice? Maybe show pictures of what you are explaining for the consumer to actually see what you’re talking about?
Good job
Kyle, I have been watching your videos for a while now. Very informative and you make everything look so easy. I was surprised to see that you're less than an hour from where I live in Geneseo. Love your work and maybe we'll run into each other someday.
Great video! Would like to hear more on foundations. Especially ICF with post frame and potential DIY
I think that this is a very good video with nice information. I would like more information on the two different radiant heating just to enplane better. I know how its done in some homes. Thanks for doing these videos.
I am a new subscriber been about 4days and I have seen many of your builds. Too Bad I don't live in Indiana I would diffidently have you as my builder. You do Great work and honest. I am an electrician but been in the construction world for more than 40Years. Guys like you are hard to find especially as young as you are. Just wanted to say keep it up, its great to see your work.
Level pad is an item that can be ignored due to usage. I'm finishing up a 10'x13' ft leanto off the side of a garage, with it's sole purpose to house 4 lawn tractors, a cement mixer, and few other yard power machines. The 36' long garage has (2) generations of same construction(2x6 framed floor at 16" centers with 2x4 walls on 16" centers and 16"spaced 2x4 rafters directly on top of the studs) attached enclosed in sheds making up the front 23', and the back 13' will be pole barn construction, the posts are PT 4x4, and the only compromiseing item used has been Simpson ABA electrogalvanized post bases, as I haven't found a hot dip galvanized post base
Time well spent. Thank you for providing these important factors. Well done Sir.
hey dude this vedio is a MUST SEE!!!! for anyone even thinking of building just about ANYTHING!
Thanks Kyle. Great information. Retiring in a few years and building a post frame home. Love watching your videos
This was a really informative video. I want an 80x120 building that I can expand into, but that would cost about a million dollars to be fully done the way I want with radiant concrete floor, spray foam, air conditioning, lots of electricity, a portion framed out to be a nice bathroom, kitchen and dining/meeting area, etc. Way too infeasible to do at this point in time lol. That day will still come some time in the future though
Thank you, hoping to build in the next few years and after seeing your channel I am getting fired up. Only want a small and comfortable part time home for Lower Northern peninsula Michigan. Thanks again!.
Kyle, when I thought the channel couldn't get any better you come up with the best pre design/construction check list.
Actually it does help , like the 8ft, dimensions totally makes sense on deciding how big you want your casa , so thanks again dude
Thinking ahead for resale is a prime reason for prudent design.
Really appreciate that you took the time to make this video. I won’t be building for a few years but want to be ready when it’s time. Thank you very much!
Great Information Kyle. Applaud your quality and workmanship not to thought process. Being able to see your vision for a complete structure
I really really appreciate this video, thank you very much, don't worry about it being boring or not, it was extremely informative and helpful!
I’ve built hundreds of houses and I get to a point where I’m with you I’m tired of explaining but you can’t answer every question with the same answer. My mom wants a house but she doesn’t know what she wants and trying to work with her is become a three-year chore.
This is the first time I've seen one of your videos and it was just what I needed to hear at the right time. So you now have a new subscriber, thanks for putting out good content.
Think about color combinations. Go online and look at photos and see if you like a blended look or high contrast for roof, wainscoting, garage doors, trim. Some may be too blended (boring); others might be too jarring (dark garage door against light siding). Your builder will have a small ring of color steel samples but try and get accurate color samples of steel from the garage door company as well as the steel siding and think about it for a couple days. Making a quick decision and changing it later will cost money with change order fees. Steel walk doors are a great idea but may only come in white - take the color chip the garage door company gave you and get the color matched so you can paint it. Save a piece of scrap trim to get it color matched to paint the walk door frame.
Best video ever exactly what I needed from a trusted builder
Super helpful. Looking to build a shop in North Idaho and we get a few feet of snow every winter that lasts several months. Lots of stuff to think about.
Thanks Kyle. I am in the market in 4+ years and this is just the kind of info I need to educate myself. I would hate to get retired and build my dream shop and not have it be the dream.
Be careful... nightmares are dreams too ;-(
I appreciate the quality of your videos. I like watching a project being built. I like your recap videos like this one or the one on what it costs to build a project. Whatever your process you seem to be creating content that is worth watching more than once. Thanks.
Kyle thank you so much for all the knowledge you are sharing. You are THE BEST! MAD RESPECT AND ADMIRATION!
Excellent video. Wish I had seen this 45 years ago before I built my 28 x 32 work shop. However, I excavated with a 9N Ford tractor and built it out of free scrap lumber and free scrap aluminum corrugated sheet for $640 which included wiring and lights and $435 for concrete floor. But I've been working on it ever since. I hope I would have had enough sense to build it differently if I had seen this. Probably not.
