The Challenges of Building a Tiny Home When we started building the first tiny house we were excited to roll up our sleeves and get to work. Mark was the brains of the first house and he was able to come up with a large vision of the house that he wanted to build, so we bought the necessary tools and we bought the right materials and we set to work building this house. Every few days of building we would run into a problem and that would send us back to the drawing board, but each time it helped us to learn more and improve our processes. Some major changes that we came across was to switch from electric to gas, and also to from a double door opening up in the middle of the side, to a single door which allowed for more storage and space in the future. But all in all this has been the most rewarding experience to see this house go from an empty trailer to the makings of a beautiful comfy home. This has given us the confidence and excitement to continue building these houses for as long as people are willing to buy them. One of the great things that happened was when our company was featured in a local paper (The Box Elder News Journal)
