I dont remember when they (or if they) said it was built but building codes are a relatively recent thing in some places (50's-60's) for some and I think where I live they weren't around until like 86. Before that it was mostly left to individual cities to decide if they wanted to codify anything or mostly just trust that the tradesmen/architect's/engineers were doing what was needed: That's part of why it used to be such a huge deal if an architect's/engineers house/building/bridge or whatever had issues or collapsed because you basically trusted that they did things the right way and it was proven wrong. That's also why older buildings were so "overbuilt" because they didn't have the data we do now and computer modeling to set tolerances tight enough to build things "just right" so some things might be 2x or 3x stronger than needed in some cases which is most likely what kept this house standing with all that damage and shoddy workmanship.

Finding a few toad poops confirmed what I thought: she was our new pest control lady. Despite being a danger to the dogs, I felt she more than paid her rent for her home in those bushes.

Those nails were into end-grain, and nails have little holding power in end-grain. But, they do provide shear resistance, and keep things from moving sideways. The roof has enough weight to keep the wall from coming apart vertically. That's why those metal joist hangers are used, as it keeps all structural nailing away from the end-grain.

Oh contraire, mon ami!!! The reason the wood is poorer today than back in the day is that we finally realized the amount of destruction we were inflicting on the environment and passed regulation requiring a more sustainable way to harvest lumber. Conventional lumber nowadays is mostly "new growth" because the loggers now repeatedly plant and harvest trees from a designated plot in a cycle -- the lumber is lesser quality, but the environmental impact is also far less. I'll take slightly crappier wood for less deforestation any day! :)

Agreed… Using Nick’s “fun fact “ analogy… Consider checking your local building code requirements for exterior walls . We did a similar rebuild thinking we were saving money and helping the planet by keeping the original structure and studs (preserving/salvaging what we could), only to find out way too far down the road that in our area, all exterior walls must be at least 6” thick to accommodate current insulation code regulations. The original structure had 2x4s like yours. It was a very expensive mistake to fix after the fact. The choices we were giving to remedy when it came time to proceed with insulation permit was to either replace all exterior walls or add 2” scab to all exterior studs. Since the entire house was pretty much built and ready for insulation at this point, we were screwed. Sharing so you can avoid a similar mishap now before you’re as far down the road as we were. Best wishes to you both! I really enjoy your channel.

I had them treated and stopped the damage but when i remodeled the bathroom I took some of the studs out and was able to just fold them in half and put them in the trash can. They definitely weren't supporting anything.

Jenna, your channel has quickly became my favorite! I found you while trying to learn how to sew. suddenly one day it did a shift 180 degrees. I am a maker, both my career and in my hobbies. this house project is exactly the type of thing that arrests my dreams and attention...This house project os so damn ambitious yet exciting and rewarding to watch and im sure to actually live on your end of the tube! Im somewhat envious, to be honest... On a parasocial topic shift, you have the best partner in the world, from our perspective. Well done. I imagine it is the same for your partner. well done for both of yooz. Please keep up the good work and I look forward to the next steps of this great project that in your home...

The succulents were holding this house together. I’m convinced 😂😂

Hey don’t forget about the carpenter ants. 😂 they made up like 40% of the structure.

Congrats on 1M!!🎉 Also it’s not a renovation vid without…. 1:44 Go Jenna,Go Jenna! And 1:52 Go Nicky ,Go Nicky!

I live and breath for this series ❤

I love how supportive you are of each other. It always makes me smile. 😊

I Love how you call each other “Love” it’s so sweet!

I really like how you two work together. You've found a rhythm! Also, it cracks me up that you're keeping the house, but now there's hardly any of it left!!

It isn't about the roof, or the walls, it's that you're just fun to watch! And just so darn lovable.

I would love to see a video answering questions but also talking about the goals you have for this property (when certain things will be done and how you've grouped milestones) will you be working with a construction company to rebuild? this project is very exciting!

I always look forward to watching your videos come out! I admire how much hard work you guys are putting into this, it's amazing. It'll be so cool to watch you put the house back together after spending so much time taking it apart!

He's so sweet! It makes me smile every time he says "Love" ❤❤ love the series!

I have never been a bigger fan for anything fr. I literally was just checking if you posted and i missed it and here we are!!!!!! So excited!!!!!!!

I've really been digging the music with this series. And I'm sooo looking forward to the rebuild!

You guys are such a good team. So supportive and kind to each other. It can be easy for our egos to not allow us to admit when we’re wrong or we don’t know something, but both of you are so humble and learn/take ideas from each other. Beautiful to see ❤

1 Million subscribers!! 🎉🎉Taking off a roof was all worth the subscriptions. 😁👍 The best is yet to come. 🤩Congratulations on all the results and subs. ✨💫✨

The joke about taking the neighbors roof off had me cracking up!! It brought up a memory from when I was young, maybe like 5 or 6, when my mom and I lived in a duplex. We went on vacation for a week and came home to our deck completely GONE. Our neighbor cut our whole deck apart!!! Left all the wood in our backyard. We still to this day have no idea why she did it… 😅

She was probably annoyed at the noises from you sitting on the deck, living your lives. Some neighbors are weird AF and won't talk to you about these things, but will cut down your property. Hopefully your mom sued her or filed an official complaint and got the money to fix the deck.

not as dramatic as this but i remember coming home to the neighbours having cut down the tree in front of my grandparents house because it quote ‘scratched their car’. like? they could have told us that and we could’ve cut the branches but no they just waited until my grandparents were on vacation and removed the whole thing 💀😭

@@coolcat2424 That's so messed up! Why can't people just communicate? I feel like they maybe didn't like the tree in the first place, so they made up an excuse to cut it down.

Even watching you take a roof off for a month and a half is entertaining Jenna! I look forward to your weekly updates. I’m so happy for you and Nick 🤗

I would love to see Jenna say “you’re fired” during his performance review and surprise him 😂 I fire my husband at least once or twice a week. 😂 Last night he walked into the bedroom while I was taking a nap (he didn’t know) and he put the over head light on (which I hate!) and saw me and quickly shut it off and said sorry. I was awake and took off my eye mask and gave him a look and said calmly “You’re fired!” He said his usual “yeah, yeah, yeah” and laughed. That man has been fired about 7,000 times since we got married in 2012. 😂 Occasionally, when certain junk mail comes on pink paper, I hand him a “pink slip” and tell him he’s fired. 😂

Seriously you guys should do skylights. Gonna look awesome

Solotubes. I have them in my interior bathrooms, living room and craft/family room. No leaks after 20 years of use and replacing the roof. Visitors ask how to turn off the light in the bathroom. No switch its the sun. 😂 They give tons of light. Only downside is you don't see the sky.

Woohoo 1 million subscribers!! Congratulations!!!

i always love the background music, its so calming

binge watched every episode in two days and enjoyed every second. very very very excited about the whole series and how the house will turn out to be! wish you biggest luck, thank you for your hard work

Its not boring...You guys are just fun to watch!

You got your milion subscribers. Me amongst them. ❤

I found your crochet vidoes during a rough spot and your fearless 'im just going to do it and see what happened' attitude inspired me - Ive stayed bc of your roll with the punches, keep things silly, and lets figure this thing out vibes - yall be careful working on your house! Its such a fun journey to watch!

You two work so well together, it's a joy to watch. And congrats on 1 Million subscribers!!🎊🎊🎊
