  • Matthew has some major setbacks in his building project that results in very little actual work getting done. He does tear out some walls and floors. He builds new floors (spoiler alert: they need to be torn out too), and has a jolly good time fighting the addition in the new house.

    A job on this scale is like a battle, no matter how much pre planning is done, all changes after the first 10 minutes.

    Hi Matthew, I’ve been a subscriber for a while now following your adventures in the UK (where I live) and it’s really interesting watching you deconstruct to reconstruct your house. You seem very well informed about building and what to tear down etc. I can only imagine the cost, not only in financial terms, that this project is taking. It will be worth it in the end though and I’m really looking forward to seeing it completed. Warm regards, Marie from the UK

      Marie,
      I have had a bit of DIY experience with houses - but this is the first one of this magnitude.
      The cost is certainly substantial, but hopefully worth it in the end. If not for the house, at least for the memories!

    OK, in the last video, my husband and I sat there watching it saying “wouldn’t it be easier to just tear down the house and rebuild it?” You know I thought that even more watching this video! Good luck and be safe!

      It might be easier to tear it down.... But that seems such a shame! It really is a beautiful house!

    Hi Matthew.
    I think your face at the end says it all.
    I've been there, done that, but not to that scale. I think you will just have to take it a day at a time. Like mountain climbing, only look at your next step, your next step, your next step,,, and never look for the summit. You know it exists, it's your goal, but for now it's just about the next bit. And you probably will have to go backwards more before you eventually start to go forwards. Just pace yourself and get as much help as you can.
    Really my sincere best wishes to you all.
    Ray.

      Thanks Ray!
      I really is a bit like a mountain. One step at a time. One project at a time. One bite of the elephant each day!
      One small move each day can make a huge impact over time!

    I am reminded of the grand staircase of Powis Castle which is secured to the wall to the depth of half a brick. Also it could be nice to make a time capsule to put in structure of the house. And good luck.

    A language lesson of Yank to Brit: Yank: Addition - Brit: Extension .... Yank: Poorly done work - Brit: Cowboy Builders ... Yank: A fun project - Brit: The pubs open, lets drown our sorrows and forget the far too big a job that's waiting for us at "home". Why waste time with walls, floors and roof when tents are cheap to buy and do the job. The kids may point out there isn't an inside loo, I say, fill the inside of that hole. Who needs air conditioning when there is a nice breeze blowing through the tent flaps, who needs to worry about winter when we can use the kids as fire logs, who worries about rain when the wifes tears are already flooding the tent, why worry about cooking, fast food outlets are open 24hrs dontchaknow. Keep Calm and Drink Tea is the actual first commandment (Everyone knows God is British) which was soooo important it had it's own stone tablet, written is huge gold letters, however, Moses accidentley left it up the mount and he was too embarressed to go back up and retieve it after he realised what he had done. 10? they said, only 10? You promised us 11, where's the other one? the children of Isreal asked. Well, that's an interesting story said Moses .......
    Here endeth the lesson :)

      I'll make a video about ppe sometime - but a key word in it it's -personal- protective equipment.
      Everyone has to choose their own level of risk. I appreciate your concerns, but have weighed the risks, and mitigated the risks I think are most important.
