We Finally Installed Flooring in our Addition
We finally installed the Pergo Wet Protect flooring in our 14x14 DIY home addition. We had to fight the baseboard to get the last few pieces in. We also show how we used the Pergo transition piece to finish in front of the doorway. Overall it came out super nice and were happy to finally be enjoying our space that we have worked so hard on.

DO NOT buy the GoPro 10 Media Mod
Good afternoon everyone, I was super stoked to get our New GoPro Hero 10 Black in the mail with the media mod, Rode Shotgun Mic, and the GoPro light like anyone would be. It honestly looks and feels pretty nice and works well until you get into the logistics of constantly changing out the batteries as any GoPro owner knows.

This LITTLE Storm Almost Defeated Us
Man, the winter storm yesterday really wasn't that much snow but it sure was heavy with the snow/rain/sleet mix. My Ariens Deluxe 30 found the perfect time to break down on me. Luckily we were able to get it up and running in time to have some fun and the snow and hang out with the goats.

DO NOT try to bend Metal Facia without a Brake
You guys! Im just here trying to save you a few minutes of time. There are videos of guys on here bending metal fascia without using a brake or using a wheel or something crazy, it does not work, it does not look good at all. Please save yourself some time and just go rent a brake.

Installing Outlets in Kitchen Island with no room
So we really wanted power outlets on our kitchen island so we could use a variety of items on it instead of just on the normal counters. Since our island was just the cabinets and no extra built out framing in combination with the fact that all three cabinets had drawers top to bottom it made it a little more tight than a typical island. We found the solution to use these special outlets to get power exactly where we needed it. Hopefully this helps you if you are in the same boat.

Bending Metal Facia with a Siding Brake
Good afternoon everyone, we have been putting this off for way too long. We need to get some facia on the addition as the wood is exposed. I planned on bending the metal using a makeshift method but it is nearly impossible to get clean bends in the metal without using a brake. We used a Van Mark siding brake that we were able to rent from our local true value rental store.

Adding a Ceiling Fan to a Room ||Tuckers Room gets a Facelift||
Good afternoon everyone, we have been shuffling the rooms around in the house as we are renovating. Tuckers room will now be downstairs and it needed a few things in it. We replaced the carpet with Pergo flooring, replaced an old window, ripped out and replaced an old closet to include the doors. We also needed new paint and since we4 had to paint we figured why not mess around with some drywall work and wire a ceiling fan since there was not existing wiring in this room.

First "Storm" of the Season in New Hampshire #SHORTS
Just a few quick clips of snow blowing from the storm we got over the past 24 hours. It was only about 4 inches in our area. Less impressive than they were talking about. This is an Ariens Deluxe 30 snowblower. Pretty much blows snow like a champ. 💪

Installing Attic Insulation in our 14x14 Addition
You guys! We finally knocked out the attic insulation in the 14x14 diy addition. We used paper faced batts for the bottom layer and used unfaced rolls for the top two layers. This will give us just about a R60 rating which should be nice and keep us warm and cool.

Using Foam It Green Closed Cell Spray Foam on our 14x14 Home Addition
Well its getting pretty nippy in the morning here in New Hampshire so we needed to get this done! We used Foam it Green Closed Cell spray foam packs, we used a 200 ft pack and another 600 ft pack. This stuff is not cheap but definitely more affordable than buying multiple 200 packs from your local big box store. We went with this so it would be sealed since it is exposed underneath and we waited too long to call and see if we could have a spray foam company do it for us.
Overall were pretty happy with the product and process.

Zip System Installed Wrong #short
Make sure you are installing this stuff correctly if you decide to go with the ZIP System. It is pathetic that a contractor would be installing it like this and voids the warranty.
Take the time and read the directions.

We have been very busy getting no projects done.
We spent the past few weeks primarily focusing on family. We took a little staycation and flew out to California and got to see the whole family!
Don't worry, we're getting back to work!

Installing Wall Insulation and Strapping in the Addition
I promise, we are still working on the addition, we have been super busy but were full steam ahead, installing the wall insulation and preparing for the ceiling insulation by installing the strapping, which also brings our stud length down to 16 inches instead of 24 inches. It will also be way easier when hanging drywall.
