New Home Construction Update Packages
Our exclusive service provides the new home builder with regular updates of the construction of their new home. Designed specifically for the out-of-town future resident, each week we make multiple trips to your new home under construction, take picture and video footage of the current state of construction*.
Are you having something special done in your new home? Custom cabinetry and closets, a special craft room, a pool and spa, specialized electrical or low voltage systems, or perhaps the man-cave you've been needing all these years? Let us know and we'll track it and make sure to give these areas a special level of attention.
Each package includes regular observations and inspections by Don Wiley, a retired Construction Project Manager who spent 20 years on construciton sites and is well versed in the means, methods, and quality standards of all the construciton trades. In the rare case that something doesn't look right or doesn't match the permitted plans, you'll be notified so you can contact your home construciton manager of the possible problem. Please note, Gold Wingnut Productions cannot and will not provide any direction or instruction to any trade or other entity concerning the construction of your home, we are only acting as your eyes on the site and will provide you with feedback when something does not appear correct. Additinally, if you have questions about the build process and what is happening on the construction site, please fell free to contact us and we can explain most any item or work in progress.
If you see something in your update video or photos that doesn't look right or you want to see more of, just contact us and we'll make sure we give these areas additional attention. It's much better for both you and the builder to catch an overlooked, missing, or impropertly installed item early in construction than at your final walk-through.
Because of the level of attention and time required to bring you this service there are a limited number of these packages available. Even if you know your construction won't start for several weeks or even months from now, reserve your package so you don't miss out.

Square footage of home is determined by the Climate Controlled area in the final permitted plans set on file with the County permitting office. Additional charges may apply due to additional size and home interior and exterior design considerations.
NOTE: Aerial video footage and images may be limited by wind and weather conditions and are not guaranteed. Suitability and safety of ground and flying conditions is at the discretion of the pilot and Gold Wingnut Productions, LLC. Interior and aerial imagery may also be limited by safety concerns and actual work in progress. No pricing adjustments or refunds due to wind, weather conditions, safety considerations, and accessibility of the home.
We do not do reduced packages with less frequent visits, all packages will be at the 2-3 visits per week with or without the weekly YouTube videos. This comes down to keeping our production schedule simple and consistent.
If your home construction is already in progress a reduced price for the reduced duration may be available. Please note this when you contact us below and when you speak to Don about your package.
Higher levels of service are also available at an additional cost, please note your desires in the Comments section below.
About the SugarSync file share service
- The SugarSync.com file share service is a commercially available service that requires a subscription. Subscriptions are available on a monthly basis and typically cost about $7.50/month with the first month free of charge. The typical home construction cycle will require 2 or 3 months of paid subscription.
- The cost of the file share service IS NOT included in the purchase price of your package.
- SugarSync installs on your PC or Mac and runs in the background. When properly configured files will download to your computer automatically as soon as Gold Wingnut Productions uploads them to SugarSync.
- You will receive two file share links for SugarSync, one is a web-based link that allows you to download and view the photos and videos from a web page. The second link is used by the SugarSync app to configure the download to your PC or Mac.
- Because of the quality and size of the video footage we capture for you the files are large, 300 to 500 megabytes or larger, it is recommended that you DO NOT try to view them over a mobile connection. The mobile connection does not have the bandwidth necessary to adequately view these files.
- The SugarSync file share is a 2-way share, you can share information, drawings, and plans with Gold Wingnut Productions by simply dropping a copy of the files into the SugarSync folder and they’ll be uploaded automatically to us.
- The SugarSync file share will grow to 30 to 50 gigabytes on your hard drive as your home construction progresses, so be sure to have adequate space available on your drive. You can delete files in the SugarSync file share folder if you need to, nothing will be lost. Gold Wingnut Productions maintains a master copy of all your photos and videos for you and will provide them all to you on a USB drive upon completion of your home.
- If you have questions about SugarSync or need help with it please contact their support line or you can contact Don directly at 352.661.6175
