We sold everything to move our family to a small town in the foothills of the Italian Alps. We are now renovating this historic stone house as a family, completely DIY. Join us every week as we adapt to a new life in Italy and work to renovate our dream home in the mountains.

Wow! Thank you for sharing this incredible renovation! I have thoroughly enjoyed it! You are an amazingly strong family-not just physically but your family bonds are testimony to the bonds developed by family members when they share a common goal. Your daughters are beautiful and lovely and always up for a challenging experience! I can’t wait to follow you on the rest of your journey! Watching you from Lantana Florida! Ciao!❤️🌹

Secure the hand winch with a sufficiently long steel wire and secure the sling and stone with a sling and then lower the winch while rotating.
Did you notice when you were editing the door swing out and nobody else was there
Just out of curiosity what are you going to do when the house is complete? I love what you have done, it looks great. It has taken a long time, with an amazing amount of physical work. I´m very impressed.
really nice cuts really amazing
I have to wonder; what will you do; once the house is complete?? Will you travel, or start a new project?? Your home is beautiful, and you are such a hard worker. Congrats!!
Brad I love your wife's support and positive reinforcement to your endeavours. It's obvious you are a great couple.❤
Hi Brad, You and your Italian craftsmen are truly amazing to observe. You all work do hard and have developed a true trust between each other. I bet your Italian craftsmen talk to their neighbours about how hard you work Brad. Your Italian craftsmen remind me of the Balinese work-men when it comes to work place health and safety. But they get the job done. Great respect to all of you.
Aloha to your family from Hawaii 🌺♥️
Great family life project! Hard workers with passion, enjoyment and love. I wish you numbered the episodes as you completed each stage. Good luck.
It is divided, And it is because God is judging America for so many reasons but mainly because America has kicked Him out. Good is evil and Evil is good and that is the stench In God's nostrils.
Well done.
❤
I "met" you through the Newbys, and watch your videos since then! I admire you and your Family a lot! Hope one day to be able to do the same myself! Big hug from Portugal!
Your Italian is fabulous.
We missed seeing your girls on the video.
Hello I like to watch you Can you add TURKISH to the automatic subtitle options of the videos
масоны!
U should have a painter camouflage all of the outdoor vent covers to blend seemlessly with the surrounding stone on your home.
Poopamatica! ( Italian)
Amazing progress as usual. I just love watching how everything is coming together. Your home is going to be a master piece! Very unique, beautiful and up-to-date qualities about it. This will be a generational masterpiece!
Wow! I am impressed! This is what I love. The restoration, compassion and work that connects you to your health & home!! You are a good man caring for your family. Take a day off!!! What a blessing for you all!
Congratulations.Amazing work.🏆🌞😄🎉
Ok, so one of my favorite things about your show is the making coffee in the outdoor kitchen!
Window lintel stone?
How do you deal with moisture bw the stone and interior walls? Tricky?
Secret Italian Waterslide?
I absolutely love your channel. You are always positive and productive. I am so impressed by how hard you both work to make your dream home come true. So inspired to see your entire family so focused on making it happen. It makes me think about how your children are the future and it makes me hopeful. Bravo and thank you!!!!
Should we be putting a membrane between beams and floor boards to prevent creaking at a later date ?
Smart haircut. You look younger!
Love watching your videos, I’m so eager to see when you and your family move in! Will you be putting a grill in front of the gutter to prevent any blockage from debris flowing down the mountains?
Be much easier & quicker with a 3rd person.
Do you have a link to where you bought the air exchanger for the interior? We have a tiny house on wheels and we are looking for a solution to remove humidity and air flow.
It’s very interesting and I’m sure useful to see all of your engineering decisions towards keeping your house comfortable and dry.
Its amazing and you guys done a great job. It take so much strength to build a quality work like this. Really appreciate your good work.. Lots of love from Nagaland
I thought I had a big undertaking with the house I’m working on but you my friend are on another level. I’ll pray for you. You need it
The exterior stonework you did is magnificent
You look exhausted. What a boring, repetitive job! I guess you're thrilled with the rain break!
It's highly likely you know all this info, but just incase. Re your window stonework that you need to resize. If you do get a chip out, you can make very good repairs with a product called Lithomex. It mixes like a cement mortar, and you apply with a small trowel etc. You can mix small amounts, and also colour it. When it's gone firm, you can texture and sculpt it. I found that the bits I coloured ended up a lot lighter after 2 years exposure, so bear that in mind. For next time, if you didn't consider it, you could have slid in slender chestnut wedges into your slit (stihl saw slit) and tapped them one after the other. The chances of a clean straight line break are greatly increased. Whilst I'm typing.... a product I found fantastic are Tongue Tite screws. They will allow you to lay your floorboards with no visible fixings. Same as cheek nailing along the tongue and groove, but a million times faster. As you power screw them in, they pull into the wood, leaving a tidy 3mm hole that doesn't foul the tongue for the next board. You shouldn't need to pre drill holes. Only time I had to do that was with 100year old reclaimed floor boards that were brick hard through age drying. I also use them for joinery elsewhere as the tiny holes are easily filled and painted over.

This project is simply amazing! Inching ever closer and excited for you all to settle in one day 😊
Consider using clay instead of concrete behind the house.
Every house in the Pacific North West should have that air cycling system! That's brilliant. Also, Brady please tell us you take days off sometimes. I can't be the only one (bedsides Heather, of course) that worries about you hurting yourself!
That ventilation system sounds like snake oil. Do you have a link to the manufacturers website?
It’s called a heat recovery ventilation system and they are very common.
To protect the pipe make a grill out of steel bars running in the direction of the pipe connected underneath. So if leaves etc build up, water pressure sweeps theup the bars so water can run below into the pipe.
Such a shame you couldn't get the gravel and concrete delivered to the level above so you could mix, then pour down the wall. 😂
Makes me tired watching you. Thank you for the video
Brady, you work so hard. All of that hard work is paying off. That will be a beautiful home. The build is impressive, and so are the guys working with you. ❤
Could you please stop making holes through the wall everywhere? This is insane.
It must be so expensive to rebuild this barn,,
