- In this episode of The Build Show we are taking a tour of a new BUILD in Dallas Texas. The Builder is a long time fan of our show and is using lots of Matt's techniques. BUT, Matt was totally blown away by a roof system that he's never seen before!
Forward to 17:01 if you are just here for the roof design.

Matt, can you go back when the house is finished and do a vid??
Yes please.
Yeah that would be cool this house is something amazing.
Yes please
Bump
O hell yeah...got to see this half way and complete please!
Impressed not only with the new house, but also noted how he treats his people eg gatorade cooler etc, then he uses his profits to help foster kids, a lesson for all in the humanities
That’s cool to know! And like elbman said wealthy folks are typically massive givers. I really don’t know why people hate on the millionaires and billionaires so much. I’m sure there’s bad ones, but isn’t that everywhere in life?
@@danch10
It is so sad you assume you know what is true about people you have never even spoken to!!!
@@danch10
You are so sad!!!
@@danch10 You're not completely wrong. I would say if you use that logic, making a profit at all is a form of scamming. Markets drive prices, not the labor and materials involved in making the product. Nike could tank their profits, sell their shoes for a small markup, still make money on the shoe, and sales revenue would plummet because public perception of the brand would have suffered due to the price drop. Nike sells shoes for $120.00 a pair not because of the price of the materials and labor, but because consumers are willing and able to pay that price for a pair of shoes. Nike is not evil for making money. Just like you aren't evil for getting paid to do whatever you do.
He is entirely wrong. He's thinking of the world as a zero sum game, that you have to take something from others. In most cases, new value is created and everyone benefits
This guy is my kinda lunatic
Ha! Exactly!

@@darwinawardcommittee 😊👍😎
The first half of the ua-cam.com/users/postUgkx3ICSK6nSknaL_45CU2NmFSoXjarGMDiJ book is everything about wood: types, tools, finishes, setting up shop etc. The second half is all about doing projects for inside and outside of the home. The color pictures are helpful. After reading a dozen of these types of books, this is probably the best overall (layout, color photos, plans). Only detraction is that many of the projects use a table saw/router/planer, which are usually expensive and take up space, so the plans are less friendly to newcomers and the budget conscious. But I know I can use a drill, circular saw or a jigsaw to make the projects.
The man is LOADEDDDDDDDDDDDD! Jesus Christ. Good for him.
This guy is a legend. I love the, "your quote is too high I'll just learn it and do it."
story of my life once I came to CT....love both these guys now
Dario is an impressive human. One of your best videos Matt. This is why I watch. To learn and find inspiration to do everything a little better. Bravo!
Appreciate that. Very kind. I too was so impressed by Dario. Such a cool guy. World needs more like him. Good businessman with a moral and social consciousness. Thanks for commenting
@@buildshow Would love for you to do a tour of the finished home.
You know, the real story is Dario and La La Land Coffee and how he's helping timed out kids. But the build was cool also.

What @Garry Ford said!!!
@@buildshow can you please give us his instagram so we can check out finished build
Folks this construction only happens when the builder is the owner trust me.
Precisely why even if I won the lottery I would still want to build my house with my two hands
you are so right
@@Dougie_trades Nah, If I won the Lottery I'd Hire Matt And Mike Holmes to build My Mansion.....LOL
Insane build--insane detail--insane thought and engineering
Yeah I know a builder who built his own mansion and Lord Jesus. It's huge it has everything. It has features and details that you've never seen in another house. I mean they have a side business where people rent his House for weddings. It's crazy! You can have an entire wedding and be watching the game in his game room and never know the wedding party is there.
I would love to see a final walkthrough of this project. This project, and this man are both impressive. He observes not only how other trades do their work, but how that work is similar to what other craftsmen do, and then he incorporates similar trade skill with similar work. The wallpaper story was genius. He has a can do attitude and is not afraid to try something different. He is not winging it either. Everything is researched and planned. Matt, kudos to you for being a mentor and teacher. I could see pride and satisfaction in the smile on your face as you walked through this project. The foster kid story was the icing on the cake. Nice truck too.
I’ll be posting tile/stone updates on my IG @ariah_stone
"residential build" basically a commercial building shaped like a monopoly house... hahaha.
Not my style, but well built!
There's nothing basic about the house he is building.
It's truly hideous.
I like it
What's with these massively oversized houses? So many builders out of touch with today's trends
Nobody needs that much space to live
It's a waste of land space and unaffordable to maintain! Downsize!!
I was in commercial restoration for quite a few years, it's always great to see the commercial guys entering the residential space. I feel the commercial side is usually ahead of the curve especially when it comes to water proofing and insulation. The budgets are so much higher that manufacturers really push to be the top in the market and then it trickles down a few decades later into the residential space.
Matt you need an update on this house and you need to get the socials of Dario as well. I come back and check this video every couple months to see where it's at!
World needs more Darios. Hope to see the completed house
That is a man who's making a real difference.
Big solute to Dario: Science based quality building, treating employees well and his effort to help post-foster care kids. True model citizen. And Matt, thank you very much for featuring him. I was a materials scientist, worked for a well known building materials company for many years and now a big fan of your videos. Highly impressed with your depth of knowledge, focus on quality and being open to all the new advancements.
As a professional roofer for the past 25 years. I love this roof system. A lot of people are insulating there attics but not venting the roof materials. It makes a big difference. I have run into some disasters on some reroofs that had insulated attics that leaked and the moisture is stuck between roofing and insulation and cannot dry out and rots everything. Keep up the good work.
Question: What do you think of the comment about water getting under the aluminum flashing and rotting? Is that likely in your opinion?
Rooftop, I have been asking and I'm using a lot of tricks on a post frame building. I intend to use 4ply 2x8 laminated/glued columns, sitting on perma columns, with bookshelf girts. My plans are for 5/12 scissor double trusses (built with 2x6 min), sandwiched in posts with Fasten Master truss lok screws, purlins in brackets. My honest plan was after seeing something similar as this guy, was to use ZipR12 on walls, I was thinking of same on roof, then seal everything and go back over roof with regular Zip sheathing, sealed of course except as roof goes over. My thought was a bent flashing that comes off roof (ZipR12)sealed down and lips over sides(regular pole barn metal to give place for water to come out if needed) then doing like this guy, 1x or 2x4 then the more sheathing sealed to top but vents at edge of roof(no large overhang maybe 1-2 in) and 1 piece 32ft gutters along eaves. I found this rough mesh/bird stop material that's like fire proof and critter proof for between layers of roof to keep it clear.
So it's planned as 24x32x22(?)ZipR12 to peak of roof. Then sides of building get metal, then the flashing will ride on roof edge up 12-18in. Cause im in Indiana probably ice and snow shield to edge to seal flashing that will look over side wall about 4-6 in(gutter will butt right against flashing, not sure if it will be alum, stainless or copper) then my plan was the 1x or 2 by 4 going up to screw metal roof too. Leaving air gap but have that fiber/mesh to keep critters out. Not sure if I'll use some roll on extra sealer for roof or just trust two layers of Zip products.
My inside plan was keep trusses open except for cord next to roof. They say I can get 2x6 top chord which I can fill between with Rockwool 5 1/2 batts then fit thin set ply wood or melamine or something. I was turned on to a what semigloss antistatic paint to hit exposed parts of trusses to keep dust down.
Hope I explained it right. Thoughts?
S Singh not sure what portion of the video your referencing.
Im not even a builder professionally and i figured this out combined with radiant perfect roof system!
MonzaRacer not sure why you don’t want a bigger overhang? Being in Indiana which is a lot like Michigan where I am from, there is a lot of benefits to using the overhang for maximizing airflow and generally just getting the elements away from your side walls.
Having come out of the foster care system in Virginia myself, it warms my heart to hear the aid Dario put in place with his coffee shop. I wish I'd had an opportunity like that at 18/19 yrs old!
Dario, you are truly a thought leader! Matt, thanks for highlighting craftsmanship and grit in the DFW area. The “git’r done” attitude is awesome!
One of the best shows ever. Made me excited about building again. Incredibly stimulating. Great catch, Matt.
That is awesome, I have owned/worked for construction companies my whole working life 21 years. I manage a good sized company now, hopefully largest in my area soon. Now as for personal stuff, I go to extremes best I can possibly afford. I don’t worry about manufacturing warranties, when comes to best practices. If I see a long term benefit to said choices, over what they offer. I do commercial/residential projects from few hundreds of dollars to billions of dollars. So really like where this guy is coming from. Use your head, learn, adapt, and grow. Just because someone says you can’t, doesn’t mean in 10-20 years it’s not the standard. Shoot for stars, and never look back!
Lalaland...and that customer just decides to walk into the interview...PERFECT name! lalaland! Great Work Dario! My kinda over-building builder!
Well it is a public sidewalk after all
Yeah I noticed that too. She looked right at the camera and just kept walking through. A rather jerk move.
Just because you can doesnt mean you should
Town's End Living well just bc you can film on the sidewalk doesn’t mean you should right
customer was nice on the eyes :P lol
The guy is such a role model! Building a multi million dollar home and saying you know what we can learn how to do this and that saving his money where he can even though he likely doesn’t need to. Then building business to help foster kids and other employees build a life. Absolutely awesome!
This guy goes First Class. Takes care of his people and gets great results.
Damn this is the best build site, house design, no expense spared on materials, great quality guy...the list goes on. Very cool!
One hell of a Human Being in general.
Also how clean the area is was impressive
Matt, this is by far the most interesting episode you have ever made!
Wow! High praise! Thanks
Wow, Dario needs his own build show. What a badass.
Agree. He totally is!
I was thinking the same thing! Matt! Help him out brother!!!
There's a network for that...
17:37I guess I'm not the only person who finds roof vent "theories" & "guidance" unsatiisfactory. This builder is a genius
This book ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxT9ExVpR-3A-9rpRqx8vzXKZ3BMMTg_KH does have a lot of great information on the building of sheds, design ideas, building options, etc. The author goes through the steps to build a foundation, framing, roof, even ideas on internal storage and external finishes. The text is easy to follow and understand. There are many sidebars that give tips and advice which most laymen probably wouldn't have considered. The photographs are great quality too. This is a great book and I'd recommend it highly for anyone needing or interested in building a shed.
I love Dario's non-profit heart. Amazing guy, phenomenal home.
I appreciate learning from the discussions in the comments. Thanks!
I had attic foil installed in my Houston attic 6 years ago and it dropped the attic temps 20 degrees.
10 years from now, on my custom build, I'm totally going to try the perfect wall plus vented roof!
Love it!
Bless this builders heart.
Everything from keeping the site tidy, safe, clean and treating his team to be treated as valued people to his commitment to quality
Amazing job and site - respect!
No kill like overkill ..
Outfuckingstanding job .
Normally I delete comments that aren’t family friendly... but this one is too good!

Zip R12 + closed foam in Dallas? Is he gonna need 2 5000 industrial units? I'd think it's uber efficient.🤔
@@buildshow I appreciate it!
Sorry if my verbiage is a bit off color.. I'm a Navy Sailor.. the old adage holds true. Curse like a Sailor
I was thinking the exact same thing, man.
It sounds like he is fully-implementing Passivhaus standards without likely seeking the certification.
I have a great feeling that his ACH score will be right in line with their standards, in which case I thinking that his two massive commercial units are likely highly unnecessary; waste of money.
But I’m not a builder, so who knows. 🤷🏽♂️
I really liked the roof details, but the bonus La La Land idea for aged out foster kids was the best!
Love the build and his social consciousness. Incredible story.
I really hope you make another visit to this build when Dario is closer to completion, that is going to be one _HELL_ of a nice home. Personal preference, from a Northerner, I would have been willing to give up one of the garage bays and put the mechanicals in the basement. MUCH easier access at some time in the future if a unit has to be replaced (versus a repair job).
Basement yes, garage bay...NO WAY !! Lol.
Dario, I work a lot off Turtle Creek. I visit “the big green box” often. La La Land is just up the street. I’m definitely visiting your place of business. It’s truly inspiring. God bless.
Just ignore the g wagon. Nothing to see here
More of a Ford F100 fan, but still very cool.
4x4 squared. Very rare, very expensive
sounds like the guy earned it, good for him, stares forlornly at his POS nissan 4x4.......
I have a feeling there's going to be quite the car collection in that garage when it's finished.
There’s little brown pucks sold at hardware stores that are a bacteria that kills mosquito larvae, we throw them in ditches around the house in Florida. Drop one in that sump pump drain tank for the mosquito problem, it’ll work better than a zapper.
We do that here in Ct also. We drop them in the storm drains too. Any tires that have water in them, if you put one drop of oil in the water, it smothers the mosquito larvae supposedly because they can't break through the surface tension on the top and kills them.
They have dynatrap flying bug control: the light attracts them and a vacuum sucks them in. Mosquitoes 🦟 and moths.
What are these called?
@@Ariccio123 Dunks!
@@Ariccio123, We just call them mosquito pucks.
OK, that seals the deal. I've had a similar idea for my roof, and this pretty much seals the deal.
everything was great........ but the last part what's even.......... greater.... thank you both keep up the good work..... I'll definitely buy some coffee.
Matt, Can you please go back when them completed entire project. This is best project i ever see it. Thanks so much.
Awesome video, one of your best. Glad to see other people starting to understand and use radiant barrier properly. No better place than on a roof.
The author does like to from scratch, ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxbnOKZBE4evMO5V2vroHeCjq6d_MV6wJO shaping and trimming wood from large blocks into fine finished products. As another reviewer mentioned, most projects require a lot of high-dollar equipment that most of us don’t have the room or budget for. But, knowing how to do these things, even if we won’t be able to practise the full stack project, is still great.
Building Beautiful home's and helping kids guy is Awesome 👌 making America greater ❤
Back in 2007 I built a "Timberpeg" (manufacture's brand) Timber Frame home for myself, and engineered into the roof system was a 2" vented air gap on top of regular plastic. This was on top of 5" of Polyisocynurate, which sat on top of 1/2" structural shear plywood that held the T&G 2x8 fir ceiling decking in place. On top of the 2" air gap was another layer of 3/4" plywood (or snow load is heavy here) and metal roofing on top of that. We did not go through the same efforts as this guy, but I can suggest that roof vented air gap was extremely effective for both summer and winter temps. And I know it wall always stay dry under there.
Absolutely love and appreciate you two! Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom with the public. Creating a successful business is hard. Creating a successful, socially responsible entity is even harder. I admire the work y'all do. This has inspired me to start helping my community (even if it's on a much smaller scale) 😊
Architect: I drew the plans in centimetres
Dario: I built the house in inches
so cool to see you collaborating with fans!
AGREE!!! Build things above the standards. That LaLa Land...❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Holy shit cant lie I like that better than the demo mansion
Even builders have issues of over priced bids. The cost of building/remodeling is out of control.
Guy cheaps out on the foundation dig and goes nuts on the roof. Love it!
Initially I didn't warm up to Dario but in the end I made a terrible error in judgment. He exemplifies real generosity in making a great difference in these kids lives that have had a the misfortune of a rough start. Just think, to start a business so the kids could not only earn a living but to have a sense of purpose and self respect, have someone care enough to give them a chance and instill the value that their life matters. All I can say,
Dario is true gentleman, I salute you. This is capitalism at its finest, thank God the kids didn't have to rely on the government's help just to make them dependent victims in the end. God has a special place reserved for men like you, all the best Dario!
You need to show this house when it is finished.
Only thing I don't know about is leaving the Zip sitting on the drip flashing on the foundation.
Hopefully he's going to come back and liquid-flash and/or caulk that when they make the rounds to tape all the Zip.
As for the LaLaLand venture. That's AWESOME!
At 8:21 you can add some red liquid flashing at the bottom of the zip
I cannot imagine that this guy will leave any loose ends on any job he does !
Dario, Great Vision, Beautiful Effort, Gonna Be Terrific!
I watched this episode when it came out and now again because we run our corporate interests the same way. Social Responsibility is important to do the right thing.
Great video as usual. I always love seeing what a positive impact your shared knowledge has on the other builders.
I've always known that style of roof to be named..."Texas cool roof". A guy I know built his cabin doing a roof like this, it's amazing how well it works to keep the roof from heat sinking the house.
It's called a cold roof around New England and is primarily used when stress skin panels are used.
🤯🤯🤯🤯 mind blown! What a house build.
The only house I've seen, that has a builder that is as impressive as all the quality and care and engineering that went into this building. We need more people like Matt and Dario, they show us it can be done.
What an impressive build going on there. I'm excited and it's still stud walls, hope you get a chance to go back in a few months. I'm just like Dario watch all the videos and learning how to do things right . Gentleman keep up the great work, on the job and as brothers to others.
I would love to see this when its done. Or even later in the build.
Wow. Dario did it up right. It’s an amazing house and sort of unreal in its thoughtfulness to energy efficiency and use of excellent products. Very cool. Thanks.
Wow - this guy is ambitious. So inspiring.
This house is impressive. Like it.
Now to that roof, I like how he combines vented and not vented. That should be effective here in northern Maine as well.
To increase roof insulation beyond the Zip-R12, can you make the first layer of 2” structural foam and then add the roof as Dario did?
I think this roofing style would work incredibly well on the ICF cabin I want to build.
My plan is a basement with a 10’ ceiling, main floor with 12’ or 14’ ceiling and then an open roof structure. Walls are 12” concrete ICF with 2” insulation on both sides. Might add another Zip-R6 or 9 to the outside. With siding and interior finish, that gives me a wall thickness of 20-22 inches. Large casement windows installed close to the outside edge giving me an incredible 16” inside windowsill.
I considered a skylight or dome but don’t want openings in the roof. Instead, with the high walls and almost cathedral style roof, I can use the south facing front wall to install lots of windows to brighten up the inside. With our low winter sun, this will make maximise daylight inside.
What else is in my design...just a wraparound covered porch, 8 feet deep with a 6/12 roof.
Did I mention this is supposed to be a smallish cabin? Footprint (without wraparound porch) of roughly 44’ wide by 28’ deep. Some 1200 sqf plus basement.
Matt this is awesome !!! And absolute excellent home and you know many people follow your tecniques and advices , im so glad you took the time to visit this fellow builder in dallas , that gives me the hope that next year i can invite you to see what i have learned from you on the building science, Im will be building a nice home with a pool, you will be invited and hopely you come to Houston, we are in the designing step now and have the land on a really nice subdivision with back yard lake, advance framing, t studs or lvl, open floor plan , with a music studio, spray foam insulation, zip system sheeting , all those goodies, but the stuff that is going to call the attention is going to be the price of the build against the price of the actual value of the house ..........
Like i mentioned before in another video , your help with knowledge and advice makes us better contractors im not a builder but im a contractor and when clients notice that i educate myself about everything i do makes me look more professional specially in the area of town i work which is bellaire , west Univesity place , rice, upper kirby and river oaks ....
Dario seemed like a great guy , the world needs more hard working thoughtful people like him. 1 of the things that makes our country so great , entrepreneurs with the heart n ability to give back 2 others.
Great episode! Love the little bit of commercial building brought in to residential. Two thumbs up for three phase power. I bet the power company asked him twice when he put in the order for the install. 😄
Very tidy I hate working in a messy environment
Me watching this. Darios got some money. As soon as they go down into the “garage” and see the 4x4 squared.
Me : Darios got MONEY
The insulation probably cost more Then that g wagon
Matt is the shit!!!!! I love this guys. F super man and bat man, Matt is my hero!!
This was truly a remarkable video. It's one thing to build like money is no object. But Dario shows an impressive command of value -- questioning subs who quote inflated prices, learning the required skills, and finding better and more cost-effective ways. It is inspiring and genuinely impressive. Hard to imagine many folks who can both build at this quality and frankly expense, yet also master the subs' work to avoid and reduce undue costs. Spend money on things that matter, not on 60% profit margin line items. I love it.
Wow....😳. I really like that he was using commercial techniques for residential. Its a shame more builders and architects don't go this route.
if you can afford it
You see commercial grade implementation in wealthy neighborhoods. This level of construction is not something average middle class home owners can afford so many general contractors will not have the experience working on such expensive projects.
In the north we call that a Michigan roof. A basic sheathing, then 1x’s or 2x’s then another layer of sheathing, then the roofing material. I’ve never seen the foil though. Seems pretty cool.
Ahhh-Yeah! I've seen plenty of roof builds and they don't build roofs like that in Michigan. About the time you see that is for a steel roof building's.
Well done Dario! Not only the house, but love the coffee shop and how you are truly giving back and trying to help. Auguri, and continued success. Matt, would love to see this house progress through the different phases.
Matt this is veeery impressive!!! Dario is an authentic, caring, honest (albeit.....must be sooo expensive to build with him....however his causes.....protecting and tuning in to his workers needs.....touches my heart! and makes his cost-charging to customers justifiable....worth it.....DARIO what a kind, thoughtful human being!) I looove-d this project....Video.
Matt what about making a USA video about our Canadian Star Mike Holmes (Holmes on Homes!)......we would be so grateful! Thanks Matt....keep up the good work!
I would candy cane the garage support poles bc they can jump out at u, when texting of Monday morning , or tired late or legal limit pulling in.
Spectacular ceiling heights, great windows, too big for the lot size. But, I don't want to rain on your parade because clearly this is a work of art straight from the heart.
EXCELLENT DESIGN AND STRUCTURE !!!
Matt, thanks for taking the time to showcase Dario. I've been a subscriber for a long time, and your willingness to share your knowledge and also bring in others as well is why you have such a great channel!! I'll be starting my home build in late winter next year and have already incorporated much of you building science in my project. Stay safe and looking forward to listening to you in IBS Orlando 2021
"It got a little pricey..."
Uh, yeah. Just a little bit.
I am going to guess the lumber in that home cost more than mine completed..... still awesome!
This would a prime house for Tesla solar tiles.
I watched this twice. I liked it quite a lot.
I'm watching this almost a year later, and I just heard of LaLaLand Coffee recently through some other channel. What an awesome dude!
Can't understand why anyone would give a thumbs down to this video.
maybe kids.. but it does make you wonder. Perhaps some lousy construction fella's that like to take as many shortcuts as possible.. the same people that wouldn't take the time to watch the whole video.. yeah I got 'em figured out.
Because the build is so ridiculously over the the top. Such a waste of materials. Yes he can afford it and has some great ideas but who needs all that just because they can.
Well, I would figure excavation companies and waterproofing companies don't really appreciate him saying that he saved A BUNCH OF MONEY by doing himself or in a different way. Just guessing...
This house is awesome. One problem -- speaking for my self -- is the location. I lived in Highland Park some years ago. This house is too close to the neighbor's property lines for my taste. I could see it on 5+ acres, out in the "sticks." Major respect to Dario, the owner. Hope he and family have many decades there to enjoy it.
Agree 100% This build needs it's own 5+ acres like you said.
highland park is a very rich neighborhood, it is not strange to find 12,000 sq ft setting on less than 0.2 of an acre, just go to Zillow and set the filter to at least 7500 sq ft and see the lot sizes ( very small )
I'm right with you there. I would much rather spend the money on the land and get a smaller house. But it seems a lot of folks are different. I can but only shake my head.
@Eat Jat -- Smart move! That's beautiful country.
@Eat Jat lucky you 💪
In light of what happened in Texas, his work in the basement is even more impressive.
Dario just blew me away with his creativity in his building solutions & then he follows that up with a great project that addresses a real social need! I’m so impressed & I’d love to meet him.
Awesome house, awesome human being! My hat's off to this guy for his socially responsible stance. If more people thought this way, we, as a society probably wouldn't find ourselves in the shitstorm we're in. That's saying a lot considering I am a die-hard conservative!
Dang Matt he’s just about one upped you on your house build. He’s learned well from you.
Brilliant, America needs more Dario.
I really appreciate the knowledge you share. In the intro looking at the mass of this building it feels more like a cathedral than a home. Many of your other walk throughs with pragmatic decision making and a human and relatable scale underscore that better building techniques make sense for any budget. When the house is ridiculous it is less relatable and it is easier to dismiss or at least be skeptical of the higher end details.
Framing looks like it's been rained on everyday.
It rained all night and a few hours before filming.
Thanks for commenting Dario
@@buildshow custom built home.
Will sell for millions. They didn't have a plan to get it dried-in fast enough. All that wet wood. I would make a video about the importance of getting that much framing dried-in as fast as possible.
It has been weathered a lot longer than a few hours before filming. The foundation plates are black and in progress of rotting. Even the advantec on the floor is blackening. That has seen a massive amount of weather.
@@dariod2666 Would be wise to get some massive dehumidifiers in once the windows and doors are installed and test the moisture of the framing. One thing I noticed as a expat builder here in Texas is that builders/inspectors do not do a preline (pre sheetrock) moisture test to ensure the framing isn't too damp.
Hello, @20:00 min mark he talks about staples holding the thermal layer, but I do not quite get how he stapled it down, was it just on the sides of the 2x4"s? That would make sense if they are pressure treated. So maybe clarify for me if I am off base, and thank you.
Yes pressure treated wood and stapled low to the side of the wood.
@@dariod2666 You the man, very inspirational with your Coffee Shops, great job
Have to use stainless staples imo
Slate on a new house! Great to see that. Respect!
Best episode yet.
Matt, What a great house and so many well designed, thoroughly thought out features that will provide so many long term benefits !
Totally impressed !
One question for Dario.......did he have any qualms about putting the aluminum foil product directly on the pressure treated 2x4's in respect to the chemicals in the p.t. wood that negatively affect the aluminum ?
I've seen that in remodeling where it causes very bad corrosion of the aluminum.
Maybe the attic foil has a little different make-up and is not as affected, not sure.
Thx
