Pouring My ICF Basement Walls… Will They Hold?

The ICF walls are full height, and it’s finally time for one of the biggest moments of my Legacy Cottage build — pouring the basement walls! After excavation, footers, plumbing, and building these ICF walls block by block, today we fill them with concrete and find out whether all that preparation pays off. This little cottage has been a dream for years, and watching it finally come out of the ground has been incredible. I’m documenting the entire build — the good decisions, the questionable ones, the setbacks, and all the people helping me figure it out along the way. Subscribe and follow along as I build my Legacy Cottage from the ground up.
