Clearing Our Overgrown Front Garden - TIMELAPSE

- Our front garden is a disaster and soon we need to install a heat pump in this location. So it's time to reach for the digging and gardening tools for a mini makeover project with less talk and more work.
For the full vlog episode of this project, check out this video: • TRANSFORMING Our Overg...

I like this way of showing long tedious jobs rather than just saying "it was a long tedious job so we wont bore you with it".
There are many other tedious jobs that we don’t bore you with 😂🤣
The aged walls have their charm...but I just want to take a pressure washer to them!
You are a hard working couple. Your answers about your work on your home and land were perfect. People sometimes make judgements without the circumstances fully know. Sad that people can be so judgmental and ignorant. Enjoy watching and learning from your videos.
It is sad isn’t it ….but there are some people who just can’t help it. Thankfully the world is also full of many lovely people 😍
I think you guys are amazing.
There’s always some dreary people who can’t stand seeing anyone succeed like you are. Ignore them.
I absolutely love seeing you two work together.
Looking forward to next steps as always! Why is it so enjoyable seeing other people work their bu**s off 😂
Watched yesterday’s episode but I also enjoyed this one too.
I want to say, thanks guys! Im from Portugal, near the capital, and you inspire me to move 200kms to a place with land, and im so excited for the future!!!
This is so terrific! Congrats snd very best wishes!
@@ruthconstantino6861 tks!
*Ahhhhh the working at 'fast speed' gets the job done that much quicker aye hehehehe*
I watched both videos and enjoyed them.
Enjoyed this I quit funny an the music really (goes) with the pace 👍👍👍
I admire you two its not easy to keep the vision and the strength to keep going. I renovated an old dairy barn to live in, people thought I was crazy but my vision came true and it was truly magical. Rock on
K&G, you always do a great job and give it your best. Thanks for sharing your journey with your channel. I've gotten so much enjoyment from your humorous banter and am also learning much from your processes and the information bring. It's going to be a nice cozy home when you are through. Best regards from Arizona.
Excellent video! I have been following you two for about 2 years now and am really excited by all the projects you do. Love the tutorials on lime, lentils, and stonework! Really enjoyed this video about the small garden in front! Do you two have any plans to pressure wash the house's exterior stone walls and the entrance and re-painting? Just love the steps up to the second floor and the concrete arbor and would love to see a video on those!
The exterior of the house needs a lot more work than just a pressure wash and paint unfortunately.
We need to:
1. chip away all the cement render (seems to have been used for a lot of patch work),
2. when we install windows/doors we're going to have to rebuilt parts of the exterior wall
2. when we replace the roof we suspect there'll also be some rebuilding to do in a couple of the corners
So, once we've done all the above we'll then do another coat of render on the entire house, and finally paint :)
For the staircase we also want to remove all the cement render, remove the bannister/railing (because it's built with cheap red brick rather than stone) and put in a new railing. We'll probably point the staircase rather than render, but that depends on how the stone looks once we remove the render.
Much work to do :)
We talk a little about the concrete arbours here: ruclips.net/video/-w2CqYjj8W8/видео.html&si=EnSIkaIECMiOmarE
Fun to see how naturally you're able to film during the work and not have it disrupt the flow.
Cleaning the walls would so nice
Loved this! When you were shoveling the stone over the wall from the truck in both videos, I kept thinking, I wonder if they could’ve put some sort of board across and filled/dumped buckets of the stone.
Being an avid gardener, I also enjoy fixing issues first, placing the hardscapes, then enjoying purposefully planning the landscape!
Great work! Loved this transformation!
Wow...
different kind of video!!!
That's the way things are done !!!!!!!!!
Thank you Martl...
Wow! Looks fantastic. Great job as always👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I have nothing to say really, but I appreciate your content, and wish to help with the yt-algorithms.
Will you give the walls a blast with a pressure washer before the unit goes in?
And paint!
There’s more than a pressure wash needed … cement removed, windows installed, roof replaced, entire house rerendered, staircase and garden wall rebuilt …. then finally a paint 😀
@@MAKEDOGROW Oh, for sure - was assuming the unit will be going in sooner than later!
@@LaReynedEpee the unit will be, but the rest will take us years (and no point spending effort on something that’s not needed yet, ie. cleaning)
@@MAKEDOGROW I was thinking of another youtuber who was plasterboarding the inside of a cupboard with a newly-installed watertank in situ. Worth giving it a once-over because it'll be awkward to work around it once it's in. Don't want to damage it.
That is quite a transformation!
Great job on clearing the garden guys 👍💯🤗
It was interesting to see all the novel places you attached the camera to.
Hello,
I love your job.
Thanks for share.
The rubble pile hurts my back just thinking about it! Very interested how you reuse/ incorporate that as I know you don’t just dump it for someone else’s problem.
Although I understand your reasons for clearing the area, my gardener‘s heart hurt with every snip. But then I love roses and could see a nice rose arch as an „entrance“ to the vegetable garden.
I like gardening, but I dig up stuff and move it around all the time. A plant in the wrong place is a weed, as they say, and also a blinking nuisance! 😄
@@LaReynedEpee Yes, and perennials even want to be divided and transplanted. And roses sometimes grow from below the graft on their original, unwanted rootstock. And the area is going to be used for much needed infrastructure. And it still hurt.
@@LCamp-cr7fs To me, that area looked a mess. The plants were sickly and confined to narrow beds in among a lot of concrete in a dank corner, possibly without air circulation, which as you'll know is bad for roses. If left I doubt they would have thrived. Better relocated to where they have room, sun, better earth.
@@LaReynedEpee It certainly looked a mess. Like I said, I understand the logic of the clearing. I am certain that Guy and Kylie thought about this step since they try to reuse and improve rather than tearing down. They certainly don’t work against Mother Nature unless necessary. But I have seen too many incidents where indiscriminate clearing was undertaken and replaced with English lawns here in the US. All I said was that it made me sad which was the first time since I subscribed early on.
A good advertisement for energy drinks. ;-)
I can only imagine how your back must have felt after all that effort!
To the naysayers - ffs, whose property is this anyway? If you don't have anything good to say, don't say anything at all
Hear hear!
It’s not like this is the finished product either, just what needed to be done so we can move forward 😃
Do these negative (Nellie's) people even bother to check on back Videos,
Well said, susankay!
We renovated a wreck in Brittany France 🇫🇷 and know what you going through! You guys have done brilliantly
Great work guys. Still loving the videos. Ignore the haters who sit and rationalise their lives and potential adventures away for suburban mediocrity.. Plus.. Wine is always a great answer 😂
Interesting
Rhanks for the video. Will the new heat pump need to sit on concrete base/plinth ?
🌟👏👍🍀💐 5:23 😊
I don't quite understand. Where is the garden you are talking about? This layer of plastic covered with white gravel is not a garden. There is no garden without plants.
It is Japanese garden.
I reserve judgement until I see the size of the heat pump unit. But it did make me sad to see this corner ruthlessly denuded. Poor roses and other perennials! They did save the dahlias. I hope they find a microclimate on the property where these tubers can survive during winter frosts.
Why would you go and plant a load of greenery when you don’t know yet where the heat pump is going … or for that matter when you know scaffolding has to be erected to replace the roof, render the outside and do repair work to the stairs. That would just be a waste of effort!
Maybe go and watch older vidoes then you see,
