Thank you 🙏🏼😌

They aren’t too bad. Circa €250 of 8m3 for 8 days. The challenge we had is that we only had about 2m3 of stuff which didn’t seem worth it plus the rubble wasn’t in one place so not obvious to pick one single spot for the skip that would be readily accessible for all the rubble we needed to dispose of. That being said, there’s some future projects where having tubes and skip combination will work brilliantly and save a lot of time 🤞🏼🙏🏼

Je pense que les tuiles sont ok, mais elles ne sont pas accrochées donc le vent peut les faire bouger 🫣 nous voulons tout à fait refaire le toit dès que possible, mais sans vendre notre appartement à Londres nous n’avons pas d’autre option pour l’instant pour financer tout ça 🙁 Oui! Les yeux et les cheveux de sa mère ! ☺️

@@thechateauadventures tu devrais faire passer un spécialiste, la présence importante de lichen et le fait des taches non homogènes noires (pollution) font qu'elles ne sont plus hydrofuges, et font comme une éponge, il existe des traitements (saturant minéral) qui leurs redonnent leur étanchéité, si tu répares et laisse ton toit avec ce genre de problème, les liteaux et poutres etc.. vont garder l'humidité, et pourrir ! pas besoin de changer les tuiles ;) bonne chance

tu peux tester la porosité, simplement en la retournant regarder si certaines font des traces blanches, et aussi simplement verser de l'eau dessus, si les gouttes glissent ou la tuile la boit ;) slt

Merci. L’idée c’est de remplacer toute les tuiles avec des tuiles neuves quand nous referons la toiture - il y a aussi la charpente à refaire 😬. Nous revendrons les tuiles canals après, ce qui devrait aider un peut avec le coût! Vous vous y connaissez bien on dirait. Merci 👍🏼

Thank you Irene. Keep your fingers crossed we can sell our London flat soon which will enable us to get the roof replaced next spring if all goes to plan 🤞🏼🤞🏼 Wes te so grateful for Curt… and for Noah ☺️

Oui, tout à fait. Malheureusement la banque qui nous avez donnée l’accord en principe pour notre prêt a fermer ses portes juste au moment où nous allons emprunter pour faire les travaux. Donc nous faisons au mieux avec les resources que nous avons pour l’instant 🫣

@@thechateauadventures bon courage, je suis passée par ces épreuves… toute mon empathie .🙏

☺️ he is very cute.

We missed you!

☺️

Thanks Seth. Sorry to hear about your cousins. ☹️ that must have been. Hard decision for them (or perhaps one that was take out of their hands). We know what we need to do… we just need to find the money to do so. Hopefully our London flat will sell soon 🤞🏼

Everyone’s journey is different- there are a lot of folks who DONT fix their roof & windows than do patchwork. Congrats guess you’re wealthier than the average Château & other DIY’r…🙄. Why not share a positive input of HOW instead of a take down perhaps

If you would genuinely like to understand our approach you can watch our vlog from a few episodes back where we answer that exact question. We would have loved to tackle the roof first but various plans didn’t go to plan. I am very pleased to hear you were able to address yours straight away. A weight off your mind I am sure.

True, and I agree with you in theory. However, this was an exceptional storm and we know plenty of roofs that were supposed to be ‘good’ that leaked in that storm. It was exceptional. We know we need to change our roof and we will once we have the funds to do so. In the interim we are fixing it as best we can. Typically it doesn’t leak 99% of the time… thankfully 🙏🏼 or every other episode would be about our roof leaking 😬

Us neither given the choice. But we didn’t have too many options as our London flat sale hasn’t gone through and the bank which had given us a loan in principle closed its doors just as we were about to sign for the loan. As we don’t have a spare €250,000 lying around to redo the roof yet we are doing the best we can with the resources we have. The roof doesn’t actually leak in 99% of cases thanks to the work we have done to patch it up - only in extreme weather. But agree that the optimum would have been to do the roof first. C’est la vie 🤷🏽‍♂️

Hi Annette. We know 🫣 here’s to hoping we sell our london flat sells soon so we can replace the entire roof once and for all. 🙏🏼 we are super happy with the walls ☺️ and, yes, he’s definitely growing fast 😊 I did hear they were showing last season again.

🤷🏽‍♂️ I think we might have different definitions of restoration. If in doubt you can check out our 2.5 years of restoration in 2mins, which we released a few days ago.

I think it’s been a very bad weather year here. Apparently it’s a 20 year cycle. 🤞🏼🤞🏼

Hi 👋🏼

Thanks Hugh. Good idea 😃 Just need to figure out how to pin it 👀

So glad you enjoyed the recap ☺️ and that you’ve managed to forget about the stairs 😬 new episode out later today 🥳

Thanks ☺️

It really does! 😊 thanks!

Thanks ☺️

😊

If only things could move that quickly in real life 😅

☺️ it’s fun for us too as we stop and take stock of how far we have come ☺️

@@thechateauadventures ♥️

Thank you ☺️it’s definitely been hard work 🤪

Thank you ☺️ good to making progress with the DIY and the videos 😌

Thank you ☺️ super pleased with how it turned out! Onwards! 😀

☺️🙏🏼

🤩 Merci

☺️

Thanks Annette ☺️ yep, one more job down… still quite a few to go 😬

@@thechateauadventures yep

Wow! Impressive. Thanks Ian 😀

Thanks ☺️ Haha… I’m not so sure about the lip syncing. 👀

All of those things for sure ☺️ thank you!

Thanks ☺️

Thank you ☺️ we’re so pleased with the progress 🙏🏼 it was super kind of our neighbours to let us stay there. ☺️

Not so much, I don’t think. We know everyone in our little village. They’re all lovely and super supportive of the project, including our local mayor. Beyond our village we have bumped into a few people who seem to know what we are up to and have been curious about progress (including the owner of an afternoon tea shop in a nearby village), but it’s not that widely known as far as we can tell. We have had a couple of people randomly turn up who had travelled from afar to come and see the chateau, but that’s about it.

I hope so! I feel like we’re doing it justice 🤞🏼

Thank you. Super kind. As you say, the underfloor heating is definitely more expensive to install but we’re hoping it’ll be more comfortable and effective than other types of heating in due course 👀🤞🏼 plus we wanted a travertine floor finish so this seemed like a good option ☺️ thanks again 🙏🏼

I'd say it was a TOTALLY sensible investment given that this is going to be your residential area. The insulation of the foam together with the underfloor heating will be something you appreciate for years to come!!

@@hughw8543 looking forward to putting it to the test 😌

Thank you! 😊

Sorry. Wish I’d been able to finish it to premier yesterday. 🙁 see you next week!!

Thanks, pleased to hear it ☺️

Thanks ☺️

Thanks. ☺️ we were pleased with progress too! His laugh is really sweet 🥰

Great to hear ☺️❤️

Hej! 😃 it’s Nick, so that is pretty much the extent of my Swedish, unfortunately 🫣 re the insulating. We took the decision not to on the upper levels as the energy report we had commissioned said it wouldn’t make a huge difference as the walls are pretty insulating at just under a meter thickness. Plus it was thought there was not much point insulating part of a wall if the other part is then just the stone anyway. Once works are complete we should be at a B energy rating which we are happy with.

@@thechateauadventures Haha! Hej is a good start. Okey, i understundom. Makes sense. 😊

Sounds lovely. Glad you enjoyed it ☺

You can check it out in our earlier videos. We did a tour a few episodes ago.

Glad you enjoyed the music... in the midst of the stress 🙃
