    Keep in mind when buying a hot tub: maintenance and filtration!!! My Dad has been in hot tub sales for decades and I worked as a maintenance tech for a bit myself. Make sure you do your research and don't let the sales people use scientific words to intimidate you. It doesn't matter how many colors the LEDs can do or how many jets there are, if your water gets dirty and is a pain to maintain. There are systems advertised as "maintenance free" but even those do require maintenance (just not as much). The amount of tubs that had nasty green water that we had to revamp because people thought "it was sold as no maintenance!" is more than I care to admit. Make sure whatever you get, it's not just a deck ornament and is actually something you can maintain and monitor long term. You'll enjoy it that much more.

    I'd like to make an suggestion for the inside of the front door... Since the location tends to get a lot of snow... And even with the covered front door on the outside to keep weather intrusion down, and that is to add a tile section to keep any water damage to the floors from occuring. I'm sure the wife will need to approve this... But, it's something I wish my house had since i have no coverage outside of my front door.

    As an experienced AirBnB superhost - dont do wood floors. you want your home to be bomb-proof because you WILL get bad guests. Wood floors is just asking for headaches.

    Suggest large tile for the showers, less grout lines that need to be cleaned each year. Also we have always put a mirror behind our stoves (cooktop) since much easier to clean than grouted tile. Using the tiles you picked out means you will be spending time each year cleaning grout lines (or paying someone else to do this). JMHO And I was one of the many who knew you would need to replace the beam you took out. Last year's low snow load and the fact that God loves structural engineers more than any other engineer is what has saved you so far. Why does God love structural engineers? Because a structure will go into all possible configurations available prior to finally falling down.

      @@arnefines2356 No, Mr. Moth was wrong about solid wood vs. floating floors. He said the “wear layers,” or the amount of solid wood above the tongue, was about the same with both floating and solid wood flooring. This is very wrong. The oak that I’ve used in my home has 5/16 ths of wood ABOVE the tongue layer. Mr. Moth said it was “about the same” as a floating floor, which he estimated to be 1/8 th thick. (He was being generous, it’s typically a bit less.) So, compare 2/16 ths to 5/16 ths, and you get OVER TWICE the amount of wood in the wear layer.
      Further, there are many, many more advantages to solid wood flooring. For starters, Mr. Moth will be struggling later when he sets all the cabinets, islands, and other large furniture/built-ins in place. A floating floor must be allowed to do that-float-and he risks pinning it down in place and having it buckle. Search for You Tube videos on this, there’s plenty.

    I just saw a similar comment below, but I came here to say: You might consider installing a small area of stone (any of your bathroom floor options would be great) right inside your front door, sort of like a permanent stone doormat. It's common in Canada, and I've seen it all over Europe, too. If you build a little storage bench there you can deal with wet/muddy shoes on the stone surface and protect your wood floor. If you plan ahead you can make sure the stone is level with the wood floor.

    I like you videos very much and the way you explain your way of thinking in a calm way compared to other hyper-exaggerated content creators. Also, you show that you made mistakes and how you fixed these. What came to my mind, probably too late or too extensive to implement: Radiant floor heating. That stuff like Warmboard etc. Especially for Eastern Oregon where winters or the "interim" periods can be chilly. Since you already ripped out the floors everywhere it would be worth considering. We have a house in Central Europe, exclusively heated by radiant floor heating (low temperature), running flawlessly for now 44 years (no leaks). Installation was under tiles, hardwood flooring, carpet and now vinyl. Especially for high ceilings up to the roof -- yes that was also fashion in the 80s in Europe -- you don't have convections. Furthermore, never cold feet. Guaranteed even if you cannot feel your feet anymore it takes 15 min to reverse that. With the not so insulated homes built back then you might want to keep your forced air just in case. Agreed, it is an additional cost factor. For myself this would be a "must" to have.

    Tile and waterproofing: SCHLUTER BABY!!!!… all the way! Warranty is second to none and absolutely phenomenal! I won’t use anything else. Biggest challenge is finding a contractor that is competent to install it to the manufacturer specifications to be able to get the exceptional warranty. However, you don’t have to have a contractor install it. My sister was able to do two bathrooms on her own following the massive support online and from the Schluter company They also have in person training that is free. They have their own RUclips channel with instructional videos. I think it’s good for you to have a contractor do this but you should specify in your contract that they have to meet the Schluter manufacturer specifications and make them liable for any corrections. I hope this helps!

    I am a GC and build and remodel a ton, for the kitchen since it won't ever really move I set 3/4 ply under the cabinets and leave them about 1/2" short around the edges so that you can still slide your flooring under and make it look like its under there. Lets you put the cabinets in whenever you want and saves a couple bucks on the flooring material. Plus it makes it easy if you ever have to pull your floor up.

    I had a house with engineered hard wood floors and it was PERFECT. The finish is applied in the manufacturing process, eliminating the awful smell of doing that in situ. The boards are flat and consistent. The underlayment makes the floor quiet. Also, sadly, it is currently near impossible to find craftsmen who have a high level of pride in their work. You will be impressed by the engineered floor. 👍

    • @diamondbracelette
      @diamondbracelette Месяц назад +1

      One thing to add when comparing 3/4 HW to engineered is that most (all?)engineered hardwood gets installed with a visible V groove in-between the planks. Nothing wrong with that but just a different look. But one upside to engineered is that if you like the look of wider planks, engineered might be more stable in certain environments and/or require simpler installation where 3/4" HW plank 4" or wider might need costlier glue to prevent cupping.

      Same. Explored the engineered path but went traditional. Overall look and feel. I did however think there was more refinishing depth in a standard 3/4 T&G plank vs the 1/8" engineered. This being something I valued for the life of the house beyond my ownership. But I'm trying to confirm if indeed the refinishing depth is the same for both floor types (as described in the vid).

    Just realized: 30 years from now or whatever when (if) you sell this, you can just direct the buyer to your videos so they know EXACTLY what is going on behind the walls and with all the materials. Super handy for documentation.

    I put engineered hardwood flooring in my already heavy 34’ Airstream on a diagonal. It’s the best thing Ive done so far! It’s absolutely gorgeous with various shades of light to dark brown. She’s over 10,000 lbs now & still pulls like a dream. Tires are still good after 7 years. I will replace them before I tow her up to Atlanta.

    Check out Carlisle Wide Plank flooring. Engineered hardwood floor with a very very thick wear layer. Very good product.

    Love this house and so glad you’re doing real wood floors, not “luxury” vinyl! I hope you really consider keeping the character that makes this house so attractive. German schmear and painting the ceiling will “farmhouse” away all the good parts of this house. Hire a professional designer and find inspiration images of warm modern cabins with lots of wood.. you’ll be able to rent it for more if it’s designed right.

    @Bourbonmoth You might want to check out Paradigm Conquest waterproof flooring. A friend of mine did a gut reno of his house on the water (salt) and he did all high end finishes. For floors he went with this instead of wood because of the wear and the elements he needed them to be able to hold up under. Between snow, dirt grit, pine sap, etc., it would seem as though you have equivalent challenges for your flooring. And his floor looks amazing. I didn't know they weren't wood until I asked him. Plus, I bought him a Bourbon Moth hoodie, so you kind of owe us.

    Whole home renovations take a while. Honestly, I see this taking you about 18 months to complete.
    Can't wait to see what kind of mini-shop you set up in the garage. (let's be honest, you aren't going to haul finished cabinets from your place, out to there.)

    Don’t know what Internet provider you have up there but I would get them to come in and set it up now. You can run cat5 throughout the house and have the modem in a central location. It’s a big house so you will need extenders for sure. The cat5 wire can hook up to the modem and the jacks in your house so you can hook up your extenders.

    You're lucky you're in an area where double pane windows are sufficient for reasonable energy efficiency. Way up north here - triple pane is minimum, with argon filling and coatings to further reduce energy loss recommended.

    For the bathroom tubs or showers, you will need a backer board for the tiles. You will also need a way to waterproof between the tiles and backerboards/wall studs.
    For the most part tiles can be waterproof, but the grout needs treatment and maintenance. So if there is waterproofing behind the tiles, your basicly idiot proofing the walls on the shower.
    You will also need to check on the fans in the bathrooms for moisture control. Check the fan piping to see that they are sealed with the proper tape.

    Actually🤓… most engineered hardwoods are only 1/2” and most real hardwoods are 3/4”, therefore you atleast get one more sand layer before hitting the tongue and groove.

    The previous hot tub more than likely sat directly on the concrete pad. As you are not staying there full time do some research on hot tub chemistry. Some are less maintenance than others. It is not just filling it up with water and heating it up.

    Jason... For engineered flooring (definitely) check out Carlisle Wide Plank Floors. We went with their "Carlisle, Picture Frame, Engineered, 8 inch face width, 3/4 inch thick" (as printed on the invoice). That was 8 years ago for our oceanfront cottage on the Maine coast. Given the temperature & humidity variations this has performed incredibly well. Ours has white oak top layer complete with a water-based finish and it is rock hard. They make their own flooring on site and below the 3/16" top layer are 10 plywood layers. A great product.

    Just an idea in the hot tub. We had the same concerns about putting it on the deck. What we decided is we cut out a “hot tub” size hole, poured a concrete pad and sat the hot tub in the deck. It looked great and was easier to get in and out of.

    The problem I have with engineered floor of this type is that at least when we went looking, if you wanted anything quality? It cost more than some of the nice solid woods. It makes no sense.
