How did we end up here?
It all began with a year of full-time travel, embracing the van life until the world shifted, and we had to adjust accordingly. With travel no longer an option but determined to stay productive, we transformed our compact mobile abode into a self-sufficient off-grid dwelling that fulfilled all our needs. Recognizing the uncertainty of the current tiny home, we quickly realized a permanent residence was the most sensible choice! Over the past three years, we have meticulously overseen every aspect of the project ourselves, planning the construction while simultaneously setting up the off-grid property to sustain our future food requirements!

This isn’t the type of video we ever thought we’d have to sit down and film but we feel a lot better letting you all in on what’s really been going on. I’m sure that over the last year there have been times where things have felt disjointed or confusing so we hope this sheds some light on what’s been going on…we still can’t get over the fact that after everything we’ve dealt with, WE’RE the ones being sued! But as always, we're going to find that silver lining because in the end, it's alllll going to work out better than we could've imagined ❤
Thank you for sharing. Once again, you show me another reason I admire you. You've been taken advantage of, it seems; but standing up for yourself is a good thing. It's not easy, I know, but it's the right thing to do. Don't let people walk on you! So good on you for consulting an attorney. There's a saying: No good deed goes unpunished. Seems like the more honest and kind you are, the bigger target on you for the crooks. You guys are the nicest, smartest, funniest, kindest people I 'know' and it makes me mad that you got treated this way. BTW I don't care if you jump around a bit. I just love hanging out with you. Heck, I love listening to you, sitting on the sofa just talking! In this case, I know you are going to make lemonade out of lemons. It's what you do, and a fine example for all of us. BUT…get your money back from the crooks💕
I know that what you are going through is beyond frustrating…but as soon as Tyler finished the legal statement and Todd went directly into F this and F that…I died laughing. Thank you for the laugh…you guys will get through this and you have each other 😘😘
Hi guys! I wanted to tell you that my father worked for many years making fiberglass pools. And nowadays with the pools that are made of cement he covers them with fiberglass. It is the best solution you will have and it will last forever!
My goodness, it seems like this has happened repeatedly to you guys! You have had to go back and fix so many mistakes by contractors and other providers of this construction. I really hate it for y'all! You take it a lot better than I would. I admire that! Best of luck to you going forward!
The prices these days on things are just insane. $33,000 for a retaining wall?? That costs as much as the average new car. WTF are they smoking?
Man oh man, what a battle you've had! I'm so looking forward to watching you guys taking control and righting all this company's incompetency!!! Onward and upwards. Cheering you on as always.❤
You have been 'nice' long enough. Time to counter-sue. They have committed FRAUD by failing to deliver even a basically functional pool, let alone what they contractually promised. On top of that, they caused you both mental and physical suffering. They need to be shut down. Ask for a complete refund and damages. Punitive damages.
Man what a mess. I am so sorry you have to add the pool crap atop your to do list! 😢
Have you heard of concretta It's the concrete product used in water parks completely waterproof. I don't know how far you've gotten since this video but look into that if you haven't started something yet
1:05 Todd defines my inner voice at many many many many many( and yes, i wrote manually all "manies") many many situations IRL. Love you, kick their butts
Such a shame to hear the latest news regarding your pool. But we believe you are doing the right thing by taking charge of the situation and repairing it yourself. At least you will know it will be done correctly this time. It's appalling the company's actions against you when they are responsible for refunding or correcting their big mistakes.
Well, that explains so much! What a bunch of 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬. I’m in awe of how you keep yourselves on track. Hoping for a swift resolution ❤
I am so sorry that you guys have had to go through with this. What a PITA. I hope that you can get this resolved. Knowing you both, I am sure you will get it fixed. It is so unfortunate that companies can't do what they have promised to do and you guys have had your share. Best of luck!!! Xoxo…Jim
Had stuff like that with tradies, I'm on your side, if that makes you feel better. Xx That company should be ashamed of what they've done!
Fuck em – I’m sure you will win in the end but move on with your dreams guys
Sorry you have had a shitty experience. Shady people do shady things.. good luck
I would have been furious and put their company and names on full blast!
I sued a company for causing me to break my elbow, but it took 3 years to get a settlement!
Well done Men!! They need to make it right!!
F*ck you pool company and your pool liner. The boys are back !!!! ❤
You guys are great and I know you can’t disclose the name of the pool company, but I guarantee you I will not be buying any precast concrete pools in the future no matter what company it is.
By the way, I love my shirt 😊
Hey I'm looking for an online therapist. I know you guys use someone on your channel that you like. Would you mind sending me the information for a referral?
It seems that the company didn’t think through the business, social and reputational consequences of their apparently obdurate position. Your reach on social media is nothing to sniff at and neither is the willingness of your very loyal viewers to support and defend your position, it seems.
The name of that company will come public, eventually. Someone will make it his/her business to expose it and their business and reputation may well suffer significantly. The fact is that the remediation of their seemingly defective substandard installation will be on view, week after week, for all to see, may have more adverse effects for them than their lawsuit against you.
It’s not too much to hope that they may come to their senses and settle this before things become more contentious.
Im so tired of these shit head companies trying to rip people off. This is your home. You have every right to have things done correctly and fully. Bunch of jerks
So sorry to hear this. You will figure it out. Best of luck
I cannot believe it‼️ You both have had to struggle with sooooo much all along the way And like Tyler
Erbsaid you have worked soooo hard to find the silver lining in everything and now this‼️ I am soooooo sorry‼️ Please do not feel your viewers are seeing you as incompetent ‼️ If people have watched your videos they know how important details and always doing your best work are to both of you‼️‼️‼️We are WITH youn100%
The fact that you both felt light once you accepted the situation and decided to move on and take control is something worth meditating on. Maybe this trouble you've been through has now settled an old score from a past life and you can all move on. It's great that you're focussing on the positives and also holding them accountable. I suspect there's been more of this behind the scene than we've seen. I'm looking at you, tower foundation.
Laddos. Very happy to have been kept updated. Thought you’d simply left us high and dry. Instead… it was a contractor who did not fulfill their obligation, and you guys were trying to keep your lives on track. I’m totally with you on reaching your dream : living on the Land. All the best of luck to you both.
Be VERY clear, this was NOT a mistake. This is pure NEGLIGENCE and FRAUD
