I agree! I have two younger brothers, one which has passed at a fairly young age, and he was especially able-bodied into landscaping and paperwork. But he never really wanted to help out his family which was pretty sad. My other brother is the same way, and as always feeling put out if my mother and I asked for any physical help. It's definitely in the way children are raised and unfortunately we had a very dysfunctional family and our father was the same way. He made a good living and he was very educated but he did not want to be hopeful so unfortunately that's what my brothers learned from him. Bill and Elizabeth, you did to a wonderful job raising your children

@@Savannah-ed4rv OMG, I thought I was the only one! My oldest brother replaced my front porch light. I never heard so much complaining that I never, ever asked a family member to help me again. You'd think "family" would be more supportive, but its not so. From that, I learned a good lesson. Just pay someone to do the work and hope to God that a contractor doesn't rip you off and actually does a good job. Its very hard to find someone who wants to help. I've found out the hard way that most of these guys don't want to do small jobs, it doesn't pay and they want the "big" projects no matter what they tell you. I could write a book on my home owner experiences. Sad.

We can’t do much for my father (he was the one who did it all), but he’s 71 and we all live together now after my mother passed (we bought his home). Seeing him with his grandchildren everyday, at dinner each evening, and outside all spring, summer, and fall is such a gift to us. And I suppose making sure he never has to mow a lawn, snow blow a driveway, or do the dishes is a little help too.
Your home improvement and construction projects are better than watching HGTV. Love Barry, what an impressive son. What great parents you are to have a son like this!

Barry is such a good son. And talented just like his dad!☺️
Two good men, dad and son makes it even better. It’s a joy watching your family work together. Listening to the both of you, with the knowledge you share is a blessing! I’m thankful your son is there for you, for you two to make the house whole again. And I’m still very excited for you all getting a Florida home! While you were working I noticed you have a rooster 🐓 near by. I’m wishing your family many blessings from our Lord and Savior! I’d be double nice if Barry and his family could get them a Florida home near you too! Love from Georgia!

Good Job Guys. One step closer to moving in. We had asbestos on a house we once owned. The edges were all chipped off like that. Luckily a neighbor has stacks of it in his shed and sold us what we needed for $1 a piece. My brother-in-laws father had the tool they used to punch the nail holes in the shingles without breaking them. After painting you couldn't tell the difference between the old and the "new"
Mutual respect is so heartwarming to see. Father and son working together with a common goal of making the house safe for mom is just so wonderful. Learned a lot as always. Could not look away for a moment or I would not know who was speaking! Both of you are fantastic! Take care! after all that hard work. ❇❇❇
Bill, many years ago we were adding more piers for support underneath our home we were redoing and underpinning. My husband was under the house and told me to release the pressure on the jack. Being a 21 year old I just turned the release valve all at once. Cracked an inside wall and scared my husband as it sounded like the house was falling. After that he taught me how to use and release the jack properly. We lived in and worked on that house for 39 yrs before retiring and moving to the mountains. Good yrs, but hard yrs. He was able to live here for 10yrs before passing 2yrs ago without always having to repair something. That 1st home was built in 1900. This home 1998. He loved living here.

Thanks for the chuckle, I can relate taking the old family farmhouse over, the money and time spent on that place, and we also moved on to better pasters in newer homes.
Nice to see Barry again! Been missing his content. I did not know about that concrete adhesive! I need to build a small cinder block wall and was dreading working with mortar. The adhesive is perfect! (and an excuse to buy a new tool, I think I will need a battery powered caulking gun. 😜)
It’s great that you two can work so well together.Good job Bill-working smarter not harder! I also have to utilize a chair to do what used to be thoughtless chores for me because of spinal and knee problems. I guess a few years ago I would viewed that as lazy. Not anymore. Today I’m thankful for chairs! 😊. Take care Bill and Elizabeth-God bless!
Woohoo!! Dad and Son are back. Love to see you both working together.

Yes, Bill and Elizabeth did a fantastic job at raising a wonderful son. I also think Berry’s wife Molly is amazing for loving her in-laws enough that she understands that Bill and Elizabeth sometimes need help and Molly supports Barry so he can help his parents. A wonderful family all the way round. May God continue to bless the entire Keller family. ❤️❤️

Thankfully, my hubby is still able to do most small repairs. I am so happy to see this getting done so you all can enjoy your summer home! ❤️
So good to see Barry. You guys make a great team!
How fortunate to have a son that takes after his dad. Not only doing the work but no corners cut just to make do. It is better now than originally. Thanks for sharing this repair. Y'all have a Blessed day.
I just love Barry. He's such a hoot, plus a good son, father and husband. You did good, parents!
Thank you Barry for explaining the asbestos shingles. I had them on our old house and they are still there. I have explained what you have said 100's of times. Also wonderful to explain about hidden leaks.
Bill and Elizabeth, you have raised a very smart and knowledgeable son. Thank God he is so helpful to you both. Good job !! I really like that you explain why and what you are doing for any jobs you do. Thanks for taking us along.
Thank you for this very informative video! My grandparents home has asbestos shingles. Perfect condition after 70+ years. Love the family unity! Our family is the same 💙 God is Good 🙏🏻

Hey Barry! So great to see you working with Bill on the Florida house. And such great news to discover where the real water problem was coming from! Hopefully you can get that capped and Bill won't be trying to climb a ladder with that trick knee😊. Prayed for safe travel back home for you and thanks again Bill for another great construction video. They are my favorite! I will "see y'all" in approx 40 days...giving up social media for Lent and will probably have some sort of withdrawals to not hear or see this wonderful family (all three channels!) God bless you all-see you after Easter.❤️
Great job you guys! That was fascinating to watch and lovely to see you working together as father and son. You are making quick progress on your new home!

Hi Barry, I like your tats! You do nice work on all your jobs ❤️

Thank you, Barry, for "helping" dad with this project. You are awesome.
That was a phenomenal video! I don’t know how to do any of that stuff and you guys make it look easy. I’ll tell you - as much as I miss the snowy, tiny house videos from Pennsylvania, I’m enjoying seeing you both reap what you’ve sown. God bless!
Great job guys!
I enjoyed this video. Father and son working together. Nice job!
It reminds me of watching my dad and be work on our house. Good memories.
What a relief to mark that off your list👍🏼 Also, I love Barry’s sense of humor😂 Have a blessed week🙏
Very instructive, not that I would ever want to do something like that myself 😲, but I like knowing how things should get fixed, and get fixed right. I echo the many positive comments about your parenting, Bill and Elizabeth. Barry looks and sounds so much like Bill! He seems to be about as close to a clone as a real person can be. To say nothing of his construction skills and his ability to host part of a video. Kudos to all three of you!👍👏🏻❤️
