  • Simply Living – Build It for $10,000-$12,000 in Materials

    What we came up with is a 20 foot house that can be fully completed for only $10,000-12,000 with all new materials even less with reclaimed materials… For a limited time, we are offering the plan package PDF download for whatever amount of money you decide and what you think they are worth. And we are going to donate 100% of the proceeds to charity, specifically I Care Atlanta which is a nonprofit devoted to ending homelessness.” – Tiny Home Builders

    The entrance to the house is situated at the back of the trailer where you enter into a smaller family room with vaulted ceilings that is the perfect size for a small desk and a couch.” – Dan Louche at Tiny Home Builders

  • Tiny Home Builders – How to Video Series

    Dan is making excellent progress on his latest tiny house and how-to video series – a virtual tiny house building workshop. Last step on the exterior of this house was to finish the roof.

    “I personally like the look of the metal roof, but I know it’s not for everyone. The problem is that there aren’t many alternatives that are as strong for the high winds that are experienced while moving a house and as lightweight as metal.”

  • Exterior Siding is Going Up – Tiny Home Builders

    Dan is making great progress on this tiny house and recording the entire building process in how-to videos.

    “The siding is going up and I am starting to see what it’s going to look like. I hope to have all of the exterior siding done as well as the roof by the end of the week, but I’m thinking that might be just a bit much, especially since we have rain predicted. I have a tendency to set lofty goals which often leads to disappointment, but when I aim low it’s easy not to overshoot.”

  • We have a door!

    Dan Louche is steadily completing this tiny house. Looking great!

    “I got a few minutes over the weekend to sneak out and install the front door. It’s surprising how easy it is (primarily because doors are sold pre-hung with the frame already assembled). It just seems like it should be more difficult.”
