In Episode 21 I avoid the Corona virus by keeping my nose to the grindstone. To distract myself from the end of the world, I decide to tear up the side porch on the house, replacing the roof and foundation. This renovation has clearly gone far, much further than I wanted but that seems to be the pattern for me.

He’s still alive. Be safe out there.
Ha Ha
Thank god 🙏🏻 stay safe everyone 😘
Handsome, strong, skilled, hard worker, level headed, your wife hit the husband jackpot.
Lol was hoping he was single.
Who else found 22:48 satisfying when he hit those blocks on time with the music?
didnt even notice that, it really reminds me of alec steele. his editor loves to find music and syncs it with the hits of the hammers/powerhammers.
I noticed it! Very satisfying.
The man is back yall. Here to save us through quarantine. Just had my 10 year old sit through 12000 house series. Thanx
@@geraldmaine3300 whats wrong with you dude....
😁
Tearing that corner out made such a huge difference in that poor old ladys appearance. Can't wait to see her all trimmed out. So gratifying to see her transformation!! Great video.
Your parents must be so proud of you! What a fantastic job they have done.
You’re such a hard worker.. so much detail and care.. so much thought into longevity... preservation... so glad you’re thinking about purchasing tools to help you.. as you do so much alone... wishing I could jump through the screen and help you! Impressed by your work ethic! 👍🏻
His other channel, the homestead craftsman is his custom wood work job that pays all the bills and shows him chainsaw milling huge trees out doors on his own...compared to that channel, this channel is how he unwinds from his day job.
And the repairs he does will LAST.
16 years ago my husband and I bought a fixer upper for $10,00 & now it's worth almost 200,000 ur an inspiration to me.
... hardest working man on RUclips... It's a pleasure just to watch a man with his hands again... Just a beautiful thing to watch... Be careful and take care...
Hey I know it wasn't fun ripping out that foundation and digging, but the music on the time lapse made it fun!
That front sun room would be great for plants and for that reason I would put down tile or linoleum instead of carpet. 👍🏾
Another superb demonstration of why you are a hit. You're not prepared to accept poor quality and your determination to have a porch which will stand the test of time us a testament to your professionalism Thank you for sharing this with us.
Keeping it real. I like the enclosed porch but please, please NO carpet. Keep it easy to clean. You have been missed.
Nothing better in this world than seeing things done correctly than half ass workmanship. Be proud of work as there others out there that admire the honesty in in it. You are good at what you do young man.
I like how you are honest about the roller coaster renovation is. This is the reality of it.
"Tear it off and replace it with a simple, open deck/porch" is exactly what I was thinking. But what you got done is a big improvement. Getting the bushes out of there helps a lot, too.
I agree. I would, however, add a little stoop with steps, pulling out the old cement steps. It's hard to open a door when you can't back up except to go back down the stairs. If you're carrying groceries, etc., in, this can be a hassle. But he's doing a great job!!
I would still build a roof over the deck, but extend it a couple,feet beyond the lines of the sidewall.I have successfully. built wood steps right around crummy old concrete steps like that .
I wouldn’t even put in a deck. I would just run the steps right up to that door. The whole thing is in an odd place and is an eyesore.
I personally love watching you fix these old houses. I live in a house built in 1920, and I love it. Lots of uneven lines, but it has character. Not much for cookie cutter designs!
Just wanted to say thank you for doing these videos. I like that you are working on cheaper houses and therefore is something I could imagine doing myself without winning the lottery or curing cancer.
Me: "How bad can the block wall be?" Him (@ 14:48) Me: DAYUM
Just found the channel and GLAD I did. You probably don't know how much you inspire viewers to go at a job with no fear and be proud to work with what you've got. Everything that made this country what it is and I admire you for that!
always a pleasure to see 'slightly older you' back from the future to lend a hand.
@ 22:49 - I don't know if it was intentional, but I appreciated the timing of the music with the hammering.
You don't owe me anything sir. Thank you for continuing to bring us updates, stay healthy!
I have to say, I was SO relieved when you started pulling out those shrubs.
Another cute house. I love that you buy older homes and make them beautiful again.
The amount of money you save doing all your own work and not hiring contractors is a reason to buy the best tools. That's how I justify buying commercial grade tools as a DIY guy. Very impressed with your hard work. You are a driven man. Well done.
You give me hope that the terrible old house I've been working on for almost 2 years is worth the time. At least I hope.
I’m glad your are powering through to fix this. What a mess of a foundation.
one of the most underrated channels on youtube. such good editing and content. I missed these.... thanks for coming back.
Hey Milwaukee PR department, are you watching? Invest in this man!!!
Milwaukee tools are the best in my opinion! And yes! Get this guy some affiliate action going!
That porch is more headache than it’s worth! I admire your work ethic!
Whenever he says "I'll probably leave this the way it is" it gets torn out 5 minutes later. I recognize that angry work ethic. Great work
I love old houses! I enjoying the journey on your restoring this house. 👍🏻 I would so live there! ❤️
Starting to look like the Tally Ho boat restoration... which is a compliment.
Thanks for the inspiration and keep on trucking!
Good plant room. That is where I would start garden seedlings.
Thought the same when he started to tear off that shelf.
And you keep moving forward even as the foundation crumbles. Nice determination.
I love these videos. I have an old house, and 2 old rental houses. I run into a lot of the same things you do and I actually enjoy watching someone else overcome these obstacles. Lol. I think you do a great job with the houses, and i think you do a great job with the videos. Keep it up!
Jake S. How do you learn the construction remodeling stuff.
Brother i swear i look SO forward to your videos! Keep up the good work youre literally so inspirational and very quality to watch!
You honestly work so fast for one person it’s insane. This video was satisfying . It’s looking great, keep it up!
You too can work that fast with the power of the Increase Playback Speed feature in most video editing software. :P
James P lmfao yes yes, but you have to admit that for a solo dude, he gets shit done quick. I know it takes weeks and everything because he has other life things to manage, but when he starts stuff he kind of crushes it lol
Yes! Go all out on the cordless you won’t regret it! I have all the Milwaukee tools a carpenter can use. :)
Maybe a lattice underpinning on that porch?? That would look really nice. Always nice to get a video from you. I loved it. Tyfs God bless you
People will always think you have to be rich to become rich. The amount of work you put in is amazing. I can't wait to hear about the numbers when you do go to sell these houses. Raising the market prices is an great way to ensure you are getting value out of all the work you are doing.
Great to see you posting. Keep it em coming. Vinyl on the floor. Add a new porch / deck to the doorway.
Your videos on the $9,000.00 house are great. I didn't follow much of your last house remodel. But, I saw enough of it. You are inspiring. I feel guilty that I have not even begun a remodel of my present house & home. I'm retired in Virginia. However, when I was a little younger, I did a remodel of our house in London, England. That was very satisfying. It was a mess when I began the project. But it was a Show Home, once I had finished. That was many years ago and three wives back. I left it for my British wife and two kids. I went back to work in America, after taking a year to remodel the house.
Way to keep on keeping on. Thanx for sharing. I have nothing, but encouragement for you. Be Well, Do Good Work, and Stay in Touch.
It was good that you took down those blocks, they really were just standing there and so easy to knock over!
You did the right thing tearing out that sunken corner foundation and those bushes.
You're amazing. An example for others.
A rap around porch would of been perfect,this man man do anything.
I love the way you think, make it better while fixing what's there.
How to say that you are a hard worker with a purpose? You definately earn respect.
Get rid of those steps, they're funky and uneven and you'll regret not doing it. It will make the whole place look so much better.
I took your advise a while ago and bought your book, it's a nice, concise short book, but it's packed with alot of good information. Glad to see you're back it's been a while since your last video on this house. Stay safe!
Cant wait to see the next video.. This house is coming along and looks amazing. Keep up the good work.
So glad you pulled out the bushes. They bugged me how close they were , looking good!
So glad you pulled those bushes. Nothing but trouble next to the house.
If that was an open screen porch when it was built it may have had a slope built in to have any rain water drain off the floor. Great job! Keep it up
OMG please tell me you didn't just set that post in soil.
Does he need concrete for those wood posts? Just dirt seems to wobbly. Yet-I really like his vids.
@@shinebright9453 he doesn't technically need anything under the post but it's good to have some kind of foundation yo put them on
Yeah i was wondering where the concrete was.
Different part of the country folks. In his area, there is no frost heaving. I live in the Deep South...and my water lines are 18 INCHES down. No need for anything deeper. It doesn't freeze here often, and the ground simply doesn't freeze deeper than about 6"-8" in any given year. He set it in clay soil. It's dense, heavy and does not move.Essentially, he set it on brick clay. BTW, my water lines have held with no issues for over 30 years. They're PVC, so you know that I should have had issues...but I haven't.
Looks like treated wood, so it should be fine from rot and termites.
LOLOLOL, that look @15:41! too dam funny, but i feel your pain brother. worked as a mason for many years and had to sometimes work on my belly to clear out brush, old stone, cram behind bushes, and yes work under porches like you to repair old steps.
I missed you so much! But I hate you because you make me want to tear my house apart and fix it up knowing full well that I have no clue how to do any of that. Glad to see you're back
I absolutely love every time you do a Reno and you end up doing more than what you originally say just to ensure you do ‘right’ by the structure. Good on you! Fab video for a gloomy lockdown day here in New Zealand.
So excited to see a video of the house today, something positive out there and focus on it instead of all the news about Corona virus. Glad to see you're ok. It's going to look great.
I've missed watching you work so hard
You deserve no criticism. I admire your work ethic and your "stick-to-it-Ivness."
That's what I did. Built a few homes and rented them out and after about 20 years I sold them. I might of been better off just keep the homes and keep renting them out.
I saw your dad out helping! Hi dad!
The deeper you get into this house, the deeper you get! Thank you for the video!
That’s going to make the perfect mudroom/sunroom 💕👌🏼
This is my favorite video so far, can't explain why, just is. Bravo to you for all the hard work. Stay safe.
I bet the house feels a lot better now that you got all those privet hedges away from it. Looking great!
When i get a notification of a video on this channel, i will drop everything and watch it!
Was very satisfying watching you pull out the privet bushes. I hate those things and always replace them with something not so invasive and time consuming keeping them pruned back.
I am glad tou decided to switch to doing it from the outside of the foundation
One thing I notice about your properties is that they aren't really close to the neighbours unlike most suburban homes. That helps with self consciousness during a renovation.
You’re a work horse. A man on a mission. An animal !! I love your videos ,keep it up. You should be proud of your work. Thanks for sharing
"I'll do anything I need to do along the way. when you're doing this type of stuff you kinda having to compensate for things, you're integrating normal building process / rigging it up. So it's a lot of riggin it up in renovation of older houses. " Well said.
Sir, never apologize for doing things that are right and correct. One can tell you have the next tenant in mind. How happy they will be to have a decent, sound, sturdy home to dwell in. For sure you were raised right. 😬
G'day from Australia. Watched almost everyone of your videos & have total respect for you. Easily the best renovation channel I've come across. So much raw honesty is rare & wishing you success at every turn!
After seeing all the problems with this house and the necessary work you've put into it, I look back, astonished, that it didn't simply collapse the first moment you stepped into it.
Or with the first strong breeze, for that matter.
I really enjoyed the background music in this one! Nice and mellow.
I knew you would rip out that privet the second you said you probably wouldn't. ;-) I appreciate your work sir. Thanks for bringing me along.
Man I really loved the music in this one ♥️ calming and heartwarming
Man! That super thin cinder block foundation was CRAZY! Scary.
Definitely a tacked-on porch. You can tell by the exterior siding on the interior porch walls. 'You can build it Better than it was before. Better, stronger, faster' (adapted from the Six Million Dollar Porch).
Good to see you hanging in. You and your family stay safe.
Not changing much to the outside of the porch... just new door, gutters, window work, roof work, and painting... maybe new steps. Lol. Love your ideas and videos and sense of humor! Keep it up!
The M18 shop vac has been a life-saver for me recently - well worth the $100 or so. It's not as powerful as a full size vac but being cordless and super portable is a game changer in terms of cleaning small messes as you go. I use it a ton more than I had originally expected!
So good to see an update from you :) It's a good break and I actually find it relaxing.
I can't blame you for being mad about that foundation! Was under the patio the only added on foundation? It looks so much better as an open space like that, does it need to be closed?
Please don't put carpet on the patio! just use a wood laminate or something! That kinda space is a pain to vacuum and would be easier if you could just sweep.
A lot of work to fix but well worth it when you resell.
I would had put some concrete around the wooden posts. That way they wouldn't be directly in contact with the soil and wouldn't rot away in few years
Don’t forget cordless oscillating multi-tool. Worth it’s weight in gold for reno work. 😉
Would you people who are criticizing him, just stop. He does things the way HE wants to. Let it go people. Could be the reason we don’t see him as often now. He is tired of all the know it alls.
I really enjoy the content on this channel. There really is something very satisfying about taking a "turd" of a house and making it "new" again. Also your attention to detail and explanation of what you are doing is very down to earth and common sense. You really bring a sense of "can do" out in your videos. Thanks for sharing!
You're magic man! As a man they're is nothing more manly than being able to take what's deemed totaled and making it like new. I'm officially jealous.
Used to live in a house where the patio became the landry room, it was the best, great light and view, right off the kitchen, tones of room, this takes me back 😭
I can appreciate how much work that was. Nice job.
Do a laminate Floor in that room off the kitchen! I think it will make it look that much better and more of a home feel rather than a traditional rental or office. Just my take on things, those rugs tend to get nasty quick with people walking through with shoes.
Loved seeing the crawl space cleaned up, from the mess it was. Thank you for sharing.
hey, Good to see you "self Quarantining" and getting some work done. hope all is well. that little porch is well worth your time.. I think..
Glad you're back...I was wondering what happened..doing a great job..
Nice that the weather is good for you to actually be out and do some of this stuff. Keep up the good work.
You are doing an awesome job with this house. Under that porch would be a nice place to put garden tools or lawnmower. Extra storage.
