Plumbed CRAZY (Bathroom Tear-out) Ep 30
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 сен 2024
- The full-bath upstairs looked as bad as it smelled. We had to tear it all out and what we found was a bizarre plumbing situation. Join us as we peel back the decades of remodels to uncover the original style of this 1920's Florida Spanish Bungalow.

You both have the patience of saints. If it was me and my husband, It would of been a whole different outcome lol.
Thank you lol. We try but we’ve definitely had our ups and downs 😂
Good job, here is an idea. Create a shute from an upstairs window where you are doing the demo straight into a skip bin. Saves your back and time.
I was in a class with someone who found thousands of dollars in the ugly false ceiling of an old house they bought. Good Luck!
Love the bathroom floor.
Wow, lucky for them!! Thanks so much 😄
The pink and green tile is so iconic Florida. I know it wasn’t original but it would be super cute if you could find new pink and green tile. Then you could get some kitschy 1950’s pink flamingo wall decor. Lol…I’m probably in the minority but I love those fifties pastel tile colors. I bought a MCM house and gutted everything around the mint green tile.
I’m not sure if you are in the minority or it’s us lol! Seems to be a lot of love for the green out there. We’ve lived with many pink/green/lavender vintage bathrooms in Florida our whole lives (currently have 50’s pink/grey in our rental that’s cute) but I’m ready for something more neutral lol. We’ll see how it turns out 🤷♀️
I am so happy that the contractors are there to help out 👍 You guys are amazing! Hang in there 😊 The original bathroom floor is really nice too ! I am glad you choose to save it
There was some debate to keep that floor. We weren't sure it would clean up but hours of scrubbing with different products later it looks great.
You two have a long road ahead of you. I will be here to watch the struggle and joy with you. Good luck😊
Thank you so much!
Thank goodness. I thought you were going to say that the workers didn't do anything! Fruits of the Spirit...you two have patience and self-control. That's for sure!
You two have such a good attitude 🎉😅❤ It will take time and work, but you will have a beautiful home in the end. Hang in there, love and prayers for you both.❤
Thank you so much!!
I live in Australia & we didn’t have inside toilets in the 1920’s we had a pan outside which was emptied once a week buy a man in a truck, he was called the dunny man. We had to be careful of the red back spiders under the dunny lid. We also had no lights to the outside toilet we used candles or if you were lucky enough to have torch to see at night. I was born in 1952.
This house was pretty advanced for its time in this part of FL. They spared no expense when it was constructed.
I just close my eyes and see before me the best bathroom ever.... ❤
Goo, Cicadas, gooo!! 😊😊😊
🙋♀️❤️ WOW! Proud of you for keeping your cool when the wheel broke!
It was a precarious situation for sure. 😅
I'm so invested in your project. I'll be following you until you're done
Thank you so much! Glad to have you here 😊
I know it wasn't original, but that pink and mint tile was so 50s Florida. I'll bet that bathroom was pretty cool in its own way.
We talked about keeping it, but we wanted to start fresh in this bathroom. It was filthy.
Hal, please don't put your back out!! That can had to be heavy!! I think you guys are doing an amazing job!! I love the bathroom floor!!
The pink, turquoise and butter yellow colors in the bathroom ( and kitchens) were typical of the 1950s.
Approx 1954 to 1958
We’ve even had lavender bathroom tile from the 50s in another house that was super cute! We like vintage colors but are ready for something more neutral in this house. The green tile here wasn’t that old, it was from the 90s.
I believe pink was often used as a primer before white paint. This was certainly the case in the 1960s.
Interesting! Thank you
I think the house didn’t have bathrooms with running water, I think it was a vanity with a wash basin & mirror, maybe the top tank toilet and sink were added in a later remodel.
Great video, as always!
I feel like I’m in the adventure with you two!
Can’t wait for the next!!!
Awesome! Thank you!
So far it has been lots of hard work for both of you, you will be seeing the light soon. Oh Al I was feeling for your back carrying that trash can, I hope you are not too sore from it. Take care and see you next week.
So far only some minor aches and pains. 😉
I had a bath tub just like that in a house I renovated!! Had the tub professionally relaxed and it was fabulous!!! Loved it
That is awesome!
Both of you are very braves
Thanks!
Hey everyone good job ,keep going😊❤
Hi there! 😊 Thanks so much!
How are you two going , so sorry about the loss of Hal's job, never a nice experience to go through but I'm sure Hal will be successful in finding another position soon.
Thanks Gary. It took a couple months but I found a new job and I enjoy it. I also enjoyed my time off to work at the house. 🏡
@@CicadaAndCo sometimes it's good to have a break and even better if the new position works out better than the old one. Congratulations 👏 anyway. In the way of useless information, Hal you could be the brother of my niece's husband, it's so uncanny 😀. Looking forward to next week. Gary 🇬🇧🇬🇧
Hal, Your reward is coming and you are a champ!!!
I agree! I’m convinced he’s devoted more time to working on this house than anyone in 100 years! ~Kristin
When you discipline the mind and focus on your goal....NOTHING can stop you. This project is going to yield more than just material success!
I used to love old things when I was young and searched everywhere for them .
I'm thrower....if this place was mine I would demo down to studs to get rid of bad plumbing job and foundation issues this place probably has. I've been in construction my whole life. Something I used to hear old men say on a job. If it looks old....it's probably really bad. Just saying ....also get all galvanized plumbing out put large black pvc will last longer then you think......
We'll have a video on the plumbing soon. Some things that are original are worth saving.
Same. We love the hunt. Just yesterday we found some little antique bottles in the garage we missed.
I love ❤ the floor in there too. Will you do a claw foot tub? Very exciting. Keep up the good work.
Thank you! I loveeee clawfoot tubs! I used to have one and have never had a better bath. We weren’t able to get one this time, BUT we did find a really nice deep soaking tub that we’re super excited about!
Shawn Rhymes here, and again I enjoyed the video. Chocolate milk is good, it's not gross! Was the wall cabinet next to the sink an old laundry chute? Thanks for posting this video.
Hi Shawn chocolate milk is good just not when you’re hot and sweaty lol also not a laundry shoot but that would be amazing if it was.
Good evening guys from the UK 😊 Gary 🇬🇧🇬🇧
You said a previous owner remodelled when they bought the house in the 90s.was that Marie? I thought she had lived there since the late 60s. I think its funny when you call the downstairs toilet a bathroom when there is no bath !!!
Yes, it was Marie. She bought the house in the early 90’s not the 60’s.
I was under that impression too, that Marie had lived there a long time and that’s why there were so many vintage and antique items
@@readingwithintentWe thought it was a bit odd there were so many antiques, knowing Marie had been there only since 1991. But we recently found out the reason and we’ll share it in a future video 😄
Those walls in the bathroom look like the old asbestos walls, be careful it could be bad for you to be exposed.
Hi Kristin and Hal! So great to see you.😊
Hi Julie, you too!☺️
Dude, you gotta be careful of your back! Go find another trolley.
We got one! He just had to finish getting that load down the stairs lol
Please don't take any chances--I am recovering from a broken back and you don't want anything to happen to you!!!
@@marygale740ouch! We hope you recover quickly!!
Take the Sawzall and just cut about the tile and then u can yank out sheets of thw drywall and tile at 1 time
This was done in October.
We’ll remember that if we ever do something like this again. Thank you!😊
Just an idea why not save some of the tile you are ripping out to make something for your outdoor garden. Example use broken pieces to make a mosaic table top. Tile a birdhouse or birdbath. There are many pieces of art you could make. Take it easy have a nice weekend.
We saved a large box of it 😄
So this video is actually seven months ago??? You say it’s October but we are watching at end of May 2024.
Yes, this was October 2023. We filmed a lot while we were working and are now editing and releasing the videos. We’re still renovating in May 2024.
Ok gotchya! Good videos by the way.
@@annettewells5690thank you!
Bunjie cord that garbage can to the hand truck x 2. I was watching some videos on unclogging dryer vents and you two came to mind. They unclogged one that was 49 years in the making.
The problem was that the wheel broke off the hand truck. It came with house, we have a better one now. Yikes! Sounds like our ash shoot.
Back in the day they insulated with news paper
That is a homemade plumbing nightmare. No licensed plumber would do that.
Agreed
What a nightmare!
You’re not wrong lol
Said contractor would have been fired for delaying the work that long!!!
Might be nice to keep the original tile floor, but the way those pipes and drains look plus moving the toilet you should reconsider and put in a new floor.
We considered that, but decided to keep it 😊
I think a friend with some experience remodeled the bathroom for a good price.
Probably
Too bad you didn't try and save the tile in the bathroom! Hope you save the moulding.
We did save the floor tile which is original! The green tile was from the 1990’s and not our style 😊 We are restoring the mounding and trim throughout the entire house.
would be nice if we could know how much you paid and how much you’ve spend on remolding
Congrats on getting the old cement and mesh tile backer out. That’s an awful job.
It really is!! Thank you
Do you think you might ever do a live Q & A ?
Yes! We’ve talked about that and think it would be fun. We probably will once we have internet at the Casa 😊
@@CicadaAndCo I bet a lot of people have a lot of questions. I know I do!
You need to rally your family n friends to help you two 😮
They have helped out a lot in the yard.
Oh shoot! I think I missed most of the video😞 I couldn't find one last week either. Hope I can get caught up! Take care !🙂
Hi Donna! We didn’t post last week so you’re caught up 😊 you should be able to go back and watch this week’s video from the beginning even if you missed it live. Hope you have a great week!
They had that exact sink at that salvage yd that you went to
You for sure don't need gym memberships - that is a whole lot of workout
That’s the truth!
I don’t recall but is there an attic in this house?
Yes
Kristin and Hal check the P Trap for treasures specifically gold rings.
I checked. No precious metal or stone. Just an eyeliner brush. lol.
The strangest plumbing set up ever installed. Don't know if ;the plumber should be shot for the crap ass job or commended on his originality for solving what looks like a major problem.
Looks like, from the ending, that you're trying to save the floors, hope so, they're pretty cool. I'm actually looking at tile like that for my bathroom floor, for the upcoming renovation.
The built in cabinet, right side of the sink, hoping that's a save also since it's original to the house, it would be nice to have it.
Agreed about the plumbing. We'll get it straightened out in another video. We love the little built-in cabinet. That will get refreshed and kept.
It would be so awesome if you added subtitle’s when your wearing your PPE gear. I feel like I’m missing out on 60% of what your saying.
💜
You can turn on the cc at the top and it gives you subtitles.
Thanks Desiree! I hope that helps Julie 😊
Why not knock out the wall between the bathroom and the closet and incorporating that space into the bathroom? Also removing the tub and replacing it with a shower would add more space…
We considered knocking out that wall, but with very minimal storage in the house we have to keep it. That’s the primary bedroom closet and there’s no place to relocate it (and it’s already way smaller than I’d personally prefer lol) We ended up with a nice soaking tub 😊 I’d rather have that than bathroom space, but good ideas!
Reglazed
Trust me to post in the comments section and not the live chat what a plonker I am. Gary 🇬🇧🇬🇧
😂 no worries we were checking both!
Hey chocolate milk is yum
We agree, just not when hot and sweaty taking out an old dirty toilet 😅
@@CicadaAndCo ya, guess not lol
I came across a youtube channel called Dhru Purohit who had a specialist in mold remediation on. The title was, "Toxin lurking in your home causing brain damage and disease". He had just recently finished Gweneth Paltrows home, one of the Jonas Brothers home and the song writers home Christina Perry. There is a test kit you can buy called The Dust Test. You send in dust samples around your home and it will tell you what molds you are dealing with. He stated that the average mold remediation costs were 57,000.
Don't throw away the medicine cabinet. You can get money for that
It was super moldy, it had to go. We kept the built-in medicine cabinet though.
@@CicadaAndCo You too are incredible. Love your videos
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😍
while I love watching the demo and prigress, With the respirators it makes it hard to understand wht you are saying. Perhaps subtitles? Keep at it, the progress is amazing!
Thank you! Closed captions are available 😊
You have to turn it on yourself.
To bad you could have sold the good tiles to a restoration company.
We kept the good ones 😊 only trashed the cracked ones
I feel so bad that you have to wear those masks. So 🥵
Thank you! It was really hard in the heat!
Hello... 😊😊good seeing you!!!
Hi!👋 😃
When buying hand trucks .always buy metal centered wheels... really bite when plastic breaks..😊
Good tip, this one came with the house
