As a homeowner who has done renovations, my advice if you can afford to do it is to add another skylight. You will regret not doing it later on when you are enjoying the beautiful one you just put it. By the way, I absolutely love your videos and am inspired by your tenacity and dedication to excellence in building and how positive you are in this very incredible journey. As well, your children are adorable!!! Well done Brady and Heather!!!!

Now one for the master bedroom (perhaps on the front of the house with a view of the snow-capped mountains(?) 🏔💗⛰ & a smaller one for the stairwell ...I'd leave the beams in place to keep the strength of the roof ...there's still plenty of light ...but that means no opening possibility like this one seems to have. I wonder if Brady has created ventilation to the outside for the bathroom as well.

Oh my GOODNESS!!! The skylight is amazing! The natural light is beautiful! The gentlemen working on the house seem to be able to do everything, just as you do Brady!

Solar tubes are another option to bring in light especially over the stairs…you could install by yourself.

Those window installers are the real deal. Lovely to watch true pros at work.

That will be an awesome improvement to your house. I grew up having a skylight over my bed. It wasnt fancy like this one though, so for some years it was leaking when it was pooring down, but at some point it got fixed it and its one of the things of my old house that i will remember forever.

You guys are back !!!! So glad you are all well ... I was concerned about all the rain and floods in Italy !

A few weeks ago I wrote to you about the windows in the roof, the light in your house was not enough. I'm glad you finally did it. The difference now is big !!! When you have money, build another skylight. It would also be good in the future to build a large cistern for the water you will collect from the snow and rain. Make the fireplace energy sistem for heating and hot water throughout the house.A few panels for energy and you will have an ecological ,economical and autonomous house.The place where your new house is has a lot of water, wood and sun, use them.

Brady that day will come for all the other extra projects. You are working sooo hard and you guys have such a difficult terrain ... but oh boy, your place is going to look stunning ! And the views over the mountains, valleys and town .... beautiful !

Please think of a transom window over the bathroom door to let light into hall.

@kindlydude

YES!! to the transom window!!! 💗 A transom window over the bathroom door will allow light to spill into the hallway/or next room!! Also, what about poking a couple of holes/transom windows high on the bathroom wall ...the wall that shares over the stairwell.... that would TRIPPLE the effect of that ONE SKYLIGHT .... LIGHT would spill into the stairwell as well as the other side of the bathroom with the transom window over the door!! P.S. I think "transom windows high on the wall over the stairwell would still lend privacy in the bathroom.

The roof stone shingles are amazing!

Like night and day 🌞 so much beautiful light, bringing all that happiness into your home. 👏👍😍🙌🪟

Watching them all walk across that slippery stone roof holding glass took my breath away! You guys are all amazing your craft is beautiful! The home is going to be absolutely amazing! Thank you for sharing! Take care!😀

Nice haircut, Italian barbers, that is an episode idea ;)

Somehow I knew its Window 😊 Much light Congratulations I say May you find money to add 1 or 2 of these

Love it. Let the sunshine in!

Always a risk cutting a hole in a perfectly solid root, but the LIGHT will change the inside forever!!!

Wow - that window is gorgeous! Makes a huge difference 🙂

Incredible difference the skylight makes. Well done Brady and workmen . . . each with their own skills combined, to complete a task giving an excellent result.

I know what it's like to build your own home and you two deserve every inch of this one. Let the light shine in!

You need at least two more of these. 😉

Wow that certainly make a difference.What considerate tradespeople .

What a difference. There is so much light now. I am happy for you. ❤

I had not realised just how beautiful each slate tile is and also that chimney! I’m so grateful for all that you share.

We put tube skylights in two areas of our home (small ranch) one in the small windowless master bath and one in a darkened hall/laundry area and the difference they have made in our quality of life is priceless. Although we don’t get a stunning view, the natural light provided is transformative to our home. I could feel your joy and excitement and can’t wait to see the finished bathroom it will be stunning!

As a home remodel contractor fo decades watching Brady just fearlessly attack sometimes work he would be frightened to do only a few short years ago, is inspiring. And no home remodel choices of installing a skylight in a remodeled bath bring "WOW" to baths more than kitchens, hallways, etc It's always a mindblower in a bath and Brady has become quite the inspiration.

Absolutely the perfect solution for a dark interior bathroom!!

Glad you are okay ❤

Your tenacity and perseverance and overall brute strength in dealing with all that stone on your property is mind blowing. Just the thought of it is unfathomable, but you're getting there, step by step, stone by stone. Wow!!!

That window is really impressive!!! Such a transformation for your bathroom!!!!

Ihave been watching your family and the love for one another is so wonderful to see. The home you are building,not just a lifetime, but generations to come. Amazing accomplishments!

Absolutely amazing, Brady will take his hand to anything. Just an amazing guy.

Solar tubes are the best. I have one in bathroom. Reflects the light from dome on roof.

Absolutely beautiful in the end you couldn't of picked a more beautiful place to redo and view that last for a lifetime!

Wow what a game changer, you never regret putting in a Velux window, so much more light. Excellent job.

Perfection, great workmanship, brilliant team. Behind every great man, there's a great woman. Lovely family 👏🙌xx

I know it's all about the window and it's fab but I absolutely love the roof and the view from the roof.

The skylight is beautiful. Great decision.

Whoop-Whoop a sky window! How AWESOME!! Love it. Its going to be a great view point in this old stone house. Wonderful!👏🏻👏🏻❤.

Wow the sky light is amazing Brady the work you do is astounding

Gorgeous! Nothing like natural light, especially in the northern Italian winter. You should definitely do one over the stairs!

"Where else can we put another one in?" "I kinda wanna spring for one over there." DO IT! The investment will be well worth it. You won't regret having more light especially when you put sheeting up on the walls to reflect light into the room. And the view you gain is phenomenal!

Wow, what a difference the new skylight makes in the amount of light coming into your bathroom and house! I really enjoyed seeing how you remove the slate tiles and then reinstall them. Amazing that this type of roof can last 50 years if you don't have hail. ;) Our houses in California were kinda like that with clay tile roofs. Enjoy your new skylight and thanks for sharing with us all!! 💖

Just beautiful, great addition to bathroom ❤

I totally agree with putting another skylight in either your bedroom or on the left of the one you just put in. It will make a huge difference in the amount of natural light you will allow inside your home. Thanks for always sharing with us.
