we'll see if that actually happens but we're going to get started today we just have this one strip of ceiling drywall left and all the drywall that's leaning against the wall is in the way basically in the way so I don't know if we're going to have to move that or if we're just going to start doing some drywalling on the walls to get that out of the way before we do the ceiling but either way

recommendation for help with some drywall finishing um the drywall's already hung we're just looking for some help taping mudding and finishing it if you could give me a call back we'd love to get a quote from you okay we'll see we got the quote from our first drywall company and it came back super high higher than the quote we got when they finished the drywall in the garage and when they did the drywall in the garage they bought all the materials they hung it and they taped mudded and finished and that quote was less than the quote for them just finishing the drywall in the addition which has already had all the materials bought been completely hung and just needs taping sanding and mudding so we're in the market for some other quotes we'll see if this guy calls me back what are you doing I'm clean they're clean they have mud on them no it's clean did you nap no I wake up you woke upy your what your boots are muddy you need to take them [Music] off through [Music] sun all right

waiting on Tren this is Tren hold up here I feel like you're Prince Ali [Music] Prince well we're making tons of progress we got the ceiling finished we got our first two rows on this big tall wall we have to move all these sheets in order to do the next row over there so I'm good who we've moved to uh trying to get this this wall going we'll probably try and get the upper half of that wall going and get some of these sheets used up so we're not just like shuffling them all over the place as far as we got definitely not going to finish today but we're uh making some [Music] progress minutes time I could whole world around my door wi open now come on in sit right down let this show looking great got four more pieces and we'll be done with this one wall at this rate we just need another two weeks finish this seriously one of those points in the build where you just have to make a really simple decision but your brain is so fried that you're like probably have to call it a day we' got a 6 and 1/2t section over here and I don't know what piece of drywall to Ed to fill that so it's not the end of the day bre break to you I'm going to break through to you not a point of view if it's the last thing I ever do I'm going break break through you going break break through [Music] you woo way to go TR high five my hand j's got muscles electricity pping you up bro warri all right we've got one wall completely done that Wall's half halfway done but we have 30 sheets of drywall to move over here so we going to try and do maybe this wall we'll see how far we get we're running out time this is most of what I do all day long just hold up my belly and sway back and forth really pretty much mommy Pattern there's not a lot of like heavy lifting I can do anymore yeah and with three people like there's not much I'm just in the way anyway so stand here and I film and I Sway and I hold my belly you look so beautiful doing it some acrobatics happening over [Music] here better it looks beautiful hold on hold on hold [Music] on good you want a drink or something we have Gatorades Power Aid I brought a cookie we do we have power raids in the fridge no we don't the white one I

my God crawl that [Music] [Applause] how's your B these days nick uh it's probably better than TR 40 40 years [Music] [Applause] [Music] old one we got one more oh second to last piece from this view it looks like it's the last piece The Final Countdown [Music] yeah woo all right yeah this is no you're not we finished we finished the ceiling yeah we finished two walls and a half and a half yeah that's a lot and they were hard angles and weird pieces if they were straight they would have been way more up it was a framer way more up way more up Brandon's got all the first uh we still have a weeks worth of hanging drywall to do but that's neither here nor there we're going to call it a you guys thank you so much this was huge fun hanging out with you guys it was super fun yeah even if we didn't get that much progress done it was way worth it to be able to like hang out and talk and have a good time we probably could have got more work done if we didn't BS the whole time it's just easy to chuckle it wouldn't have been as fun yeah thank you for your help [Music] with your head all looking good back here so we got our drywall quote back and uh let's just say it is extremely extremely expensive now we do want smooth finish on the walls which is the most expensive type of finishing that you can do these guys are trying to charge us like double what they charged us in the garage now in the garage that included the cost of the drywall the hanging of the drywall tape mud and finish out here we're just looking for tape mud and finish and they're trying to charge us like double what they charged us to do everything in the garage and the addition the drywall is maybe like 20 or 30% maybe 40% larger but definitely not more than double which is anyway just doesn't make sense so we're trying to get a couple other quotes so we can kind of compare and see what other people are going to charge and uh hopefully we can get somebody to do it a little bit cheaper because I don't want to spend all summer taping and mudding and finishing and that's exactly what will happen also we need to start building the roof over the deck so we can't do that most of the snow is melted if you look back here our giant Iceberg has now been reduced down to this tiny little patch of snow that's sad which is very cute there's still water trickling from behind the house and instead of going over there like it's supposed to all this dirt over here close to the house has settled so the water is like trickling right here next to the door and then going that way which is going to make this continue to be a big muddy mess forever unless we redirect that somehow so maybe we'll do that later but Brandon and Grayson are upstairs about to get started and we are going to try and finish hanging the drywall in the bedroom and the bathroom today we will not finish but we'll probably get close [Music] everyone needs someone and everybody loves somebody but not just anyone if you ain't looking you might just as well be blind cuz it's so easy to love but it's so hard to find it was super fun having Nick and Jen up to hang out and we actually ended up wrapping up a little bit early the other day going all out and eating Five Guys together just like spending some time hanging out before they had to take off and head back to their house we got a lot done we didn't get everything done but we got a lot done and I think today um like Trent said we probably won't finish hanging the drywall but we're going to make a big DST in it and then maybe one more day after that and then we'll finish hanging the drywall so it's definitely getting close but we do need to switch to working outside the the construction season the summer season is very short so even though the snow has just barely melted we are already counting down the days until the next big snowfall in the fall uh when winter arrives probably like you know sometimes end of September early October so we've got a lot to do outside before that happens hard to find that's one thing that I know when you ain't look it's going to pass you from behind it's so easy love but so [Music] [Applause] hard while I'm trying to avoid some of the dust and the drywall up there I have been avoiding something else that I really need to face and that is cleaning out the truck not only is the exterior completely Dusty dirty muddy and messy not so worried about that the inside needs to be cleaned out vacuumed and wiped down so badly stuff here here so much stuff in [Music] there oh come on it's not fair there no wood there yes there isn't well we are making some progress here we have one more piece to do right here and then our I think it's four more pieces to finish that b wall over there and then the bedroom portion of upstairs will be done and we can start on the nightmare that is our bathroom and closet it's dark and tight in there a lot of cuts a lot of angles and yeah now that this insulation and drywall up very dark in there it's cool though having this drywall up makes it look like a real doorway yeah [Music] got you call we all heard [Music] it you up fight [Music] H you guys are getting so much work done and I'm actually getting a lot of work done on the computer catching up on things but it is so quiet it is so quiet here I can't stand it Leo had a sleepover at Jennifer's last night and she is just about to bring him back home and I cannot wait I can't take this like it's too [Music] quiet snoring all way up were you snoring hi little hi I missed you do you want to go back to sleep okay that's fine way too it's so weird when you don't have when you're used to a kid it's so weird when they're not there just like what am I supposed to do yeah both of us are like where is Leo like in the car at going to bed we're like it and it scares you cuz you're like wait I know there's something yeah something something's wrong yeah [Music] what a couple of days oh we got a lot done we didn't get it all done hopefully tomorrow we're going to be able to get the tub installed and the drywall finished in the downstairs bathroom and I think we should pretty quickly be able to knock out the rest of the stuff in the upstairs bathroom so one more day of hanging drywall and hopefully by then we'll have somebody coming to tape and mud it because we need to start working outside it's been a long day and I think that's actually going to do it for us so if you guys enjoyed coming along on today's adventure make sure you show us by giving us a big thumbs up on today's video consider subscribing to our Channel if you haven't already thank you guys we love you and we'll see you guys on the next one adioso [Music]
