I always want to walk around and do an
01:19
inventory of things to come
01:23
this is the nasty old kitchen which when
01:29
we're done should be really nice
01:36
this being the breakfast nook here with
01:39
paneling I've already started to pull
01:43
some of the paneling off this panel the
01:46
wall here is going to come out and open
01:47
up into the living room as well as
01:49
probably most most of this here it'll
01:53
make a nice open space back up show you
01:58
it's the front door through the opening
02:01
there
02:10
so again we're gonna take this wall out
02:12
from here to there hoping to retain a
02:14
little bit of the code in the ceiling I
02:16
don't know if that'll work or not we'll
02:19
see what we can do
02:25
and that door will come out this will be
02:27
open
02:29
of course the floors right now our rough
02:31
there hardwoods but they've been painted
02:34
over
02:37
move on to the bathroom life this is our
02:44
beautiful bathroom I can't wait to get
02:46
working on this we're gonna put a
02:48
skylight right in the middle here and
02:50
have slanted side so opens to most of
02:55
the room should open it up make it feel
02:57
a lot more spacious than it is right now
02:59
it just feels cramped of course it's got
03:02
these cheap tiles just cheapy cheap
03:07
tiles and a really nasty tub and I want
03:11
to put a window a sliding window right
03:13
above the shower enclosure there and we
03:17
might be able to get away with removing
03:19
that I think that just hides the pipes
03:23
and of course that nasty toilets gonna
03:25
go away as well as this door
03:30
[Music]
03:32
and this vanity
03:40
byebye baby
03:42
we'll move to the back bedroom here fix
03:45
this door up so it works a little better
03:46
and I'm thinking about putting a loop to
03:51
turn the camera off I think I'm putting
03:52
I think about putting a sliding glass
03:54
door in place of this window a really
03:56
nice view of the water and the backyard
04:00
once those cars are gone nice closet
04:06
doors be good there may be some mirrored
04:08
ones and fixing all the plaster
04:17
those are my ideas for now see if they
04:20
actually come to fruition
04:23
should be a nice full house
04:25
when it's all fixed up
04:29
okay okay we've been doing some work or
04:36
actually I have and a buddy this is our
04:39
restoration progress of our our house
04:42
and you can see we've got a brand new
04:44
front door that's sweet that's really
04:48
nice you can see all the debris
04:51
I refuse in the truck and in the house
04:56
doing a gut job in the bathroom let's
04:59
just check out this gut job surprise me
05:03
that there was actually insulation in
05:04
the ceiling but there was it was a it
05:08
was a false ceiling there was two layers
05:10
of sheetrock sandwiched with why should
05:15
say not seen which but one by one
05:18
furring in between them created like an
05:20
airspace well know what that was about
05:21
but twice as much sheetrock and that
05:24
space there where the pipes are right
05:26
there that was all in case so the
05:28
bathrooms gonna be quite a bit larger by
05:30
a square foot or two it's just nasty
05:32
look at this old wallpaper and just had
05:38
that that slick kind of laminate walls
05:41
oh right here they're still it's still
05:43
some right here it's beautiful and Hale
05:47
got the ceiling tore down we're gonna
05:50
ready to put a skylight in there so I've
05:52
been scooping out as much insulation
05:55
insulation as I can to try to reuse it
05:57
packing it on in the other side there so
06:01
we're making some progress we got the
06:03
door done and the bathroom gutted
06:06
that's progress for today
06:12
[Music]
07:04
[Music]
07:48
all right what I'm about to show you is
07:50
a bit surreal for me it's a moment of
07:55
savory thinking in other words I'm
07:58
savoring this moment what you're seeing
08:00
here is a little house next to the shop
08:04
I took on this project six years ago
08:08
that includes the yard a lot next door
08:14
and the garage and the bank and the zoo
08:17
and everything you see here but mainly
08:20
what's inside those walls and we're
08:22
going to take a tour it's pretty darn
08:25
amazing and the journey to get to this
08:28
point is equally as amazing although I
08:32
don't know how much time you have anyhow
08:34
this is our little house it's a rental
08:35
house
08:36
it is now rented however it's not being
08:39
habitated yet the tenant has dropped off
08:43
her stuff she's got another pod coming
08:44
tomorrow and she moves in tomorrow so
08:46
this will be the last hurrah
08:47
for this house and it turned out amazing
08:50
but oh my gosh what a lot of work it was
08:53
and I'm gonna take you through so first
08:55
of all you can see our plantings grass
08:57

porch tiled step I should probably take
09:18
my shoes off now that now that it's all
09:22

09:26
best I can I think I'll be okay
09:29

09:36
