Homemade Home I was actually so inspired by this inadvertent advice because I ALWAYS try to pre-plan everything to the extent that it IS discouraging and counterproductive. Unless you’re planning a work of civic engineering, underestimating makes a lot of sense! (As long as you can go the distance once reality sets in I guess...)

That is one of the things I like most about this guy..... He makes initial plans but then is never hesitant to change direction mid-strude and do it differently than he originally planned. It is called flexibility and being able to look at things in big picture mode. Good stuff.....

I saw the sag right away in the new wall and I was thinking "oh boy", I would have started freaking out right there. You have ice water running through your veins, you're fearless, so you jack it up with a floor jack, no big issue. I can't wait until the next episode, thank you.

There is a lot you need to know to remodel a house. Removing the wrong beam or cutting through the wrong stud or removing the wrong wall could compromise the entire structure of the house. You also need to be licensed for any electrical plumbing or other work you do. On top of that, if you don't have the right permits the government can come back and make you tear out everything you have done. On top of that, if you buy a house to renovate and they made any unpermitted additions, they government can make you tear out all of that too. In addition, if any changes you make that cause structural problems that injure someone who buys the house from you, you become legally liable for that too.

This book is Awesome! I love the Lean-To-Shed the most (page 98). The plan kzread.infoUgkxe9yi0sulKgsp0VJJCIrLWWkvVqcU7LFR is to attach it to the back of my brick house. I also like how they walk you through the many different steps of construction, which is important for the less experienced like me.

Bro you need some Dave Ramsey in your life.

Yeah, stuff like the exterior even hits "pros". My wife and I bought a rent house, and hired a remodeling company to do most of the work. There was a good-sized laundry room with a 30x68 exterior door opening into the back yard, but the old door was shot and most of the drywall was also torn up. The remodeling crew chief suggested that we wall that off to save money. I stupidly okayed it. BUT - the interior door was a 24x68, meaning you can't get a washer or dryer into it. In the meantime, the house got leased, so I had one weekend to go and strip siding, cut out the drywall on the inside, and install a new exterior door then get it trimmed and painted before the tenants arrived. Got it done, but it was a close call.

Lesson learned

I haven't heard "jack-legged" since my father was alive and he was old the day I was born LOL. The good slang never truly dies. Good progress on the house.

I couldn’t stop laughing about him going through wall.😂

Damn son, can you imagine busting through a wall only to find yourself on the roof? XD That was close ^^

Punching a hole in the wall and screaming "OH YEAHH" during demolition is a valid reason to purchase an investment property... and a packet of Kool-aid.

SO satisfying tearing down a wall, and rebuilding a new one. Like others said, kudos on the respirator, but PLEASE wear safety goggles and ear protection too, a good pair of glasses don't feel like you are wearing anything...and it takes just seconds to put in those foam earplugs. It won't be fun if you can't SEE the fruits of your labor, or HEAR the compliments on your work! loving your channels!

One thing that will help you with all that drywall dust is get yourself a couple of exhaust fans and place one pulling air in and the other exhausting air out. You can also "filter" the air by buying a couple of hvac furnace filters and taping them to the back of each fan. That way you will have a constant flow of fresh air into the house. You can also take a cheap spray bottle filled with water and wet the drywall where you are going to cut it and that will help keep the drywall dust down. Keep up the good work!

This might be a different kind of comment, I really liked the choice of music for this video. It fits the quirky fun you we see every now and then :) Made the video happier and funner to watch than usual. I love your videos, I could never do this type of work but I truly do love watching

I like the way how you are gently and carefully thinking, analyzing, planing and reconstructing. You should be proud of yourself specially about how safely you are working

Much respect to your enthusiastic honest aim during this house repairing ..

A lot to be said about making things true to each other in an old house. My old place had nothing square like that settling and sags every room. Nothing I did for repairs or upgrades could be level because it would look terrible but making it true to the existing like that ceiling makes it look great. Good job with it. Love watching your stuff

Well.... this isn't Flip or flop but its more raw... more interesting. I believe I like this type of reno more. Who needs hgtv?? 😂😂. I absolutely love both houses. This one and the one beside it. Old country type homes. Brings back memories😁

The hardest working man on KZread. 👍🏻

What a great job! The remodeling of this home shows great vision.

I'm so glad you did the oooogaaa after breaking through!!

I really do wish I could assist in floor plans and kitchen redesign with you. This would be a highlight in my life - I would never sleep until complete.

I’m in ♥️ with this house and renovation. I’m sure it looks amazing now. Can’t wait to see everything come together piece by piece 👍🏻

I love your channels and your videos. One thing I admire about you is that you've amassed so much experience building and rebuilding houses that you no longer see houses as a "home" - unchanging and full of memories and restrictions. You see houses for what they are: a collection of LEGO-like building blocks that can be replaced and reconfigured, and you've got the skills to make it happen. The possibilities are nearly endless. I think you mentioned this in one of your recent videos.

I'm watching your video, and I felt ministry in your voice... Then saw your hands, and felt the Anointing of God... You have a truly sweet soul young man. God is calling on you to minister. Go forth and let God use you... 🙏

Dude, I like your style. I only found your channel yesterday, and I like what I see. You have skills and strength and knowledge and clearly you are not afraid of hard work.

It’s amazing how many layers of stuff old homes have - layers of wall coverings, layers of flooring and layers of crud.... keep up the good work.

Yeah, addition after addition. Basically started out as a one room downstairs, one room upstairs house, then a kitchen added (the dining room) and later the current kitchen. Built something they could afford and then added on as needed. I think it's a lot better way than how many go about it.

Love the new bathroom layout. Better than before! Everyone makes mistakes when they're stressed

That line about poke'n your head through the outside wall cracked me up!!

Cool reno. Wish the video was longer! Cant wait for the next one.

Now that I find myself as old as my grandfather was when he used to call us younguns whippersnapper....I hesitate to add my two cents to the mass of comments. But as a builder for more than fifty years, two things stood out for me...one is the fact of asbestos in almost all old building products--stucco, linoleum, various dry boards, etc. If you are unsure, just keep dusty clothing out of the house and launder separately.....Lots of wives bore the brunt of their husbands job.Alarmist? ..be safe, not sorry. The second thing I noticed was more of a question...if the ceiling joists are so inadequate, can you be assured of jacking on the floor joists? Carry on, good luck!

your channel is the kind of channel i wished for but ever knew it existed honestly keep up the good work its amazing! gonna go watch your other works

I like it! Great stuff. One man crew, awesome work.

Make sure that new wall doesn't overload the structure down in the kitchen. You don't want the kitchen to have a saggy ceiling! Very nice work though. Truly an inspiration!

You're so inspirational, doing this all by yourself. A couple years ago I bought a cute little house to renovate on my own in upstate, NY for $4,000 but unfortunately vandals broke in and lit it on fire before I got to do anything (or get fire insurance :/). Thankfully it's in a major city so the land it was on still has value. The next place I buy I'm going to get fire insurance on it ASAP.

You work very hard! Awesome! Thanks for sharing! I love to see your videos showing all the plan from start to finish!!

You are amazing. So smart. And you are a work in action. I love that you learn to learn new things.

Absolutely love watching you! I ,too, was worried for you about the eye protection as everyone else was saying! We dont want to see ya lose an eye, lol! Keep up the great work

Love your videos, but your lack of eye protection in all of them really worries me. As someone who has gotten rust in their eye and had to have the Dr. cut it out, let me tell you, you would much rather not have to deal with that. For me it was a little fleck off some old plumbing, but with all this demo there's so much that can get in your eyes. Please consider using eye protection more regularly.

Can’t beat a demo. Perfect solution in the end 👌🏼

Here's just a thought - that remodeled bathroom - have you considered switching the vanity for the toilet? It would put the toilet out view from both bedrooms if their doors were open - maybe reverse the swing (hinge side) of the back bedroom bathroom door, it would hide the toilet even better.. It would also put your sink closer to its linens in the new closet. Great work, man!

I'm not sure about the US, but asbestos was super common in scallop-style stucco ceilings up here in Canada. Pretty much, if it was built before around 1975, the ceiling has asbestos in it. That dust mask is decent, but not good enough for that type of danger.
