**Plans sets are now available!! (Includes pdf, .plan, and .dxf files) Start Building your own Modern Mountain Getaway! https://gum.co/WKyoR

This is the fourth episode in a new series following the construction of a small, but very stylish, vacation home for one of our clients. We are calling it The Modern Mountain Getaway, and it features vaulted ceilings, a huge wall of windows, and lots of outdoor space for the owners zen garden! In this series, we will highlight building techniques, building codes, order of operations, cost, building materials and tools used, and also even talk about the problems we run into during the build! This is going to be good fun.. And the best part is that you can rent this home for your own mountain getaway when it is complete!!

In Episode 4 we do the final prep work for the pouring the slab, or so I thought! This includes compacting the #57 washed stone, tying steel, and adding a code approved vapor barrier. I also dive into the things I’ve been doing in the background to keep this project on schedule for the next few months. This includes ordering the windows and Trusses. I will discuss the different window quotes we got and also the costs. And as always, we include footage of the Perkins crew enjoying life here in the Great Smoky Mountains of North Carolina. There is tons of great information about how (and why) we are doing these processes the way we are. These videos paint a very real picture of what it is like to on the job with our crew for the day!

We are building this home on a budget of course, so we will also be discussing how we choose materials (and designed the house) with the budget in mind! This is a huge part of any build, and one that I think is overlooked in many YouTube videos.
