Would a pocket door make sense for the guest room? In our current home (built approx. 1890), I put in a new full bathroom upstairs and toilet downstairs. I used pocket doors for both. It saved space and made the rooms handicapped accessible since there was no swinging door to get in the way of a wheel chair.
Looked like a pretty standard kitchen demo to me. Instead of moving the door, make it a cavity slider. No annoying door that opens into the room. There's a couple of doors in my house that I wish I had made into cavity sliders while I was renovating.
Thank you Jess, we do know what germinate means. But I wonder why would a german sneak in to your house to eat a tomato seed? There must be a more logical explanation!
Man, I remember my first kitchen demolish. I didn't need any tools as the cabinets were rotten to the bone. I even could rip the 4cm top made from particle board in half with bare hands as it was just desintegrating. This brings me back memories. Great video! Regards, Etna.
Nice job on the kitchen demo. Aside info. You got a mention on the Perkins Brothers post. Eric mentioned you on their latest post that involved a pink timber frame. Seems you are internationally out there with other woodworkers. Love you videos. 👍
That's a fantastic idea using the vacuum to shrink down the bin bag of insulation...have a Murphy bed in our guest room as well, I did the front of the bed and the built in wardrobes in 16mm bamboo ply, finished with osmo oil, worked out great. I would strongly advise going with the full metal frame type Murphy bed kit as they are a lot easier to work with and slimmer than the mechanism only kits with a wooden frame.
We have a Murphy bed couch combo. When the bed is up there is a couch against the wall or the bottom of the bed. You remove the rear cushions and the bed folds down over the seat part of the couch. It works out really well as we also have guests over. We bought this as a system and really like it.
That old kitchen, put up a hell of a fight… did not wanna come out.. this video feels like a directors cut .. love it 👍🏼 Jess getting in the sprit of things , with the makita t shirt 😂😂
They don't make them like that anymore! Insulfluf is nasty stuff but at least they didn't add asbestos to it here in NZ. We just demolished a house and the stuff went everywhere when the digger took out the ceilings. We should've removed it beforehand but you live and learn, lol. Now off to continue scraping it off soil on the section, my weekend job for the next x months… 😅
Murphy bed: Over the years I have seen a few ingenious Murphy beds on line where they look like a set of (book or nic nak ) shelves. The shelves are hinged/pivoted in sections so when the bed is swung down, each section is the same height and supports the platform - and all the books or other junque gets to stay on the shelves, no need to pack it all away in boxes when the bed is needed & just reverse the process when the bed goes away, but you might need extra strong springs and/or pneumatic struts.
11:49 the flexible vent tubing. You guys probably don't get super freezing winters? But if you are subject to lots of condensation INSIDE the duct, it is helpful to put a bump up just before you tie into the Fan exhaust at the ceiling, it acts as a U-trap so that any condensate settles in the duct before the access to the ceiling and you won't get water dripping down the inside of the exhaust fan. A simple wire tie off to the roof truss is enough, or you can put a block under the vent where you seem to have a conduit running by?
Hi Scott I have the same brand although a different model and find it is really good. Being able to increase the fan speed without noise levels increasing because the fan is in the roof exhaust.
G,day Scotty and Jess from Sydney Australia. I am surprised that you located the guest room wall not to plan? That can be costly. Demo of your old kitchen. The triangle wooden pieces are 'rub blocks' you coat two surfaces with PVA glue and rub back and forward slowly applying pressure and removing air until the friction holds in position. * Used a lot in unsee carcass construction, plinth, base, bulk heads, etc. 🌏🇦🇺
Come on Scott you delivered a beautiful kitchen and you're coming back to put the extractor in.... We're the client in this project too... Keep up the great work team, we all appreciate it.
Theses homes were designed and built back in the late 60s early 70s ....when I saw the particle board framing under the sink was a sure sign ......anyways great channel Scott you and Jess made the right call moving from the big smoke to sunny picturesque Nelson ....cheers bro .👍👍
Love your work Scott and you're usually pretty top notch with your safety and dust control, just don't forget to strap your mask on when you're cutting any kind of particleboard/customwood/MDF/composite board malarkey - that stuff is chocka with industrial chemicals.
17:40 Do a cavity slider! It may not be period correct for the house, but so practical in this instance. Murphy beds are silly, and rule out future options for that room.
Clear glass for splash protection, easy to clean and the theme is intact, but hell exensive to get custom cut, a friend did their kitchen with a custom wallpaper behind looks amazing! not something every one has. So that cross that box for your kitchen, custom :)
I went back to the first episode where Jess demolished something. To see your style and confidence and skill grow is awesome. Watching you learn by doing is so cool. Thanks for sharing. ❤
Hey scott, while ive not installed that particular rangehood ive done alot of those roof extractors and while theyre great in the noise department they can be a bit under powered. Rigid pipe/ducting helps, or just stretch the flex out taught. Ive even put another inline fan in the ducting to help as a "booster" You probably wont need it youve got those giant windows to help, just wanted to throw in some tips if you werent happy
Thats great work there Scott, Appreaciate it. By the way you might wanna consider using replaceable filters along with your respirator, the cartridges are designed to prevent fumes not fine particles.
Would a revolving Murphy bed make sense for the guest room? That way you can use the opposite side as a bookcase or tv and shelving area. This will mean that you will be building another cabinet which we all enjoy as part of your exciting series. There is a compact bifold door that swings like a normal door but the swing is cut in half which can be a solution in the guest room. The manufacturer is Milcasa which created the door hardware.
Demoing an old kitchen is fun. I moved into my flat in 2009 - ex Scottish council property, with original 1967 kitchen. Brother and went to town in a similar fashion 😂
Hi Scott, Thanks for another cool video! Why don't you install a pocket or barn door instead of moving the door again... it would also eliminate the space a door needs to open... and give you more room
Hey Scott. Great work as usual!! As a renovation builder in Australia we have similar issues with moisture as you in NZ (remember it’s largely caused by condensation not leaks) I think it might be a good idea to talk about possible solutions like ventilated cavities etc. I think you are doing great work for the short term liveability of your house but you are certainly raising the chance of condensation issues arising in the future. From a clients perspective this is valuable information that may help them direct funds into longer term solutions like passive and active cavity ventilation.
Hi Scott, I just wanted to make a suggestion for your door in your guest room, there are two options without having to move the doorway, the first is a Barn Door and the second is a hidden sliding door or pocket door. A great deal less work. Your new kitchen is absolutely awesome, and your new living area. Keep up the good work and brilliant channel. John an expat in Portugal.
Gosh, that old kitchen looks like something my late father would have built. Solid, lots of nails, Glue. Not sure about the tile worktop though - good to see it go. have to agree with you about the dry interior in that room - open fires do provide a through draft that drys out the interior. Here in the UK we are seeing the growth in the installation of Positive Ventilation units (PVR's) - a quietly permanently running fan in the loft - intake is in the loft, the unit filters the air and ducts it into the living area(s) of the house; experience shows it does effectively keeps condensation and mould growth down. running costs - about 10NZcents per day. . My wife is like Jess - really throws herself into demolishing old house fittings and furniture! certainly speeds things up.
Scott why not a sliding door with the frame work exposed you could integrate it into the frame and also still have the Murphy bed . This way door doesn’t open into room and as a guest room would give more access
We built a Murphy Bed for our guest room using a kit from a company in the states. With all your experience making the kitchen you'll be able to whip one up and make it look really good.
Sweet extractor. It may be the only one I've ever seen work. In the north east of England we prounuce Worcestershire as "Woosh-test-sha" sauce. Some simply call it "wooster" sauce.
Oh, that looks like such fun. From experience the demolition is the easy and fun part; then the real work begins. We're over from Scotland on a 6 week NZ/Oz holiday. We scoured the streets of Nelson on Monday trying to spot your house so we could call in to buy a smoko t-shirt.......no, not really; wouldn't want to invade your privacy. Loved Nelson; today at Farewell Spit. Love you guys and your channel. Keep it up. Respect 👍
You could use that fancy new vent fan as ventilation and turn it on during renovations, but it will dirty up the fan a lot and need to be cleaned up later as well
The thing I've learned by watching this, NEVER make Jess angry! 🤪 Or at least don't be a countertop that she wants to hit with a hammer. 🤣😂 Great episode to you both. I really enjoy your channel. Thank you.
Thoughts on the bedroom; a murphy bed is a good idea for a studio apartment where you need to tuck it away regularly. For a guest room, I don't see you getting your moneys' worth from it. I'd go with a pocket door (not a barn door) and a regular bed. Of course, I could be wrong... I have a thing for pocket doors - not sure why. I quite liked your install of a cavity slider in episode 289 😉
Great videos Scott and Jess 😊 Like others I'd recommend a cavity slider door for your new bedroom - that way it makes use of all the space in the room.
Scotty B! My mate, did you run that grease duct for your exhaust fan in flex? Run metal pipe so the grease doesn’t build up in the groves of the flex 🫶🏼
Nice work and very cathartic demo. Worked on plenty of kitchens like this and they don’t make them like this anymore. Question. Why not a sliding door into the new bedroom?
This is why all Schweigen silent rangehoods come with Schweigen SteelFlex™ high-performance safety ducting at no extra cost. These perform optimally at their issued lengths and deliver quality performance at up to 3x that - when connected to an Isodrive® motor system. Schweigen Steelflex Ducting Good design practice would always see a fire-rated ducting system extend to the house exterior, rather than to the ceiling cavity. When a rangehood is ducted only into the ceiling space, the collection of humidity and grease can present very real health issues and fire hazards. Over time, the back pressure will also impact the longevity and performance of the rangehood motor.
what spalsh back are you going? also maybe swap the door into a sliding door to save space? cheers great watching the journey and finally seeing the new rangehood with outside motor.
The point about old NZ houses staying dry and good because they arent airtight holds true on the other side of the globe as well. Here in Finland a lot of otherwise good 40s and 50s houses were ruined by renovating them with "modern" and "better" techniques. Given our climate the old houses had insulation as well, but nothing was airtight - it was just planks, light tar paper and sawdust. Modern materials used to add insulation blocked the structure from drying, and to make things worse showers etc. were added which just massively increases the moisture problems. End result is a house that rots away. The ones that werent renovated or were renovated using the original techniques are still standing. Modern materials can improve those houses as well, but the whole system must be figured out like you said.
This is one of the reasons why, in 2004 when there was a huge revamp of the building codes here in NZ, it became necessary to get a building permit when retro-fitting insulation into an exterior wall. The potential for damage is real.
"Some guy built this to last".. funny thing is if you remember all those pans and containers were thick steel and glass back in the day.. we didn't have Tupperware back then.. so he didn't want the kitchen collapsing on Jess apparently!
I asked for that brand of extractor due to its quietness, our builder said he used a brand which was just as quiet for half the price. It was *not* quiet - literally sounds like the gates of hell whenever we switch it on. 😂 We will be switching it out for a Schweigen this year.
Will condensation build up in that ducting that you've put up in the roof? I know it's insulated, but might be an ideal to ensure that it doesn't have any low points for water to pool up in it.
I agree with Sklem, a pocket/ cavity door would certainly save 900mm and be cheaper then a Murphy bed. As long as there’s no electrical outlets and plumbing is required around the pocket/ cavity door frame. Thanks for the video
Quick tip for this kind of work, put a fan in the window, that will help the dust get out of the room and protect from anything getting into the house.
1:17 what is that corner filler piece?!?!?!!? of all the remodels i've done and seen, that's the first time ever laying my eyes a piece like that. oooof
For the guests bedroom door,have you considered a sliding door? Also that ducting length? Wouldn't oil deposit in the long horizontal section of that ducking, I would have through directly over the stove & range hood would have been better? Hows Jess's arms after swinging that hammer? So many questions, great show, & toes!😂
i think you will fine that hose you used for the exhaust fan will not meet codes for a stove exhaust because of the grease that is created from cooking. i think you need a smooth walled tubing.
3:10 We had one of those installed recently, the ducting comes as part of the kit. European made (german) and their standards for safety are pretty high so this and other comments regarding fat fires are intriguing. Great extractor tthough and v quiet.
I’ve watched just 6 seconds and i’m commemnting already…..gotta love Jess smacking away at that tiled worktop 😂 that was some workout she was having, or was she getting something off her chest 😅

Ray is Dutch, not German, so presumably the seed actually dutchinated.
"Latin germinātus, past participle of germināre (“to sprout”). "
It's latin. 🤷♂
Are you saying it was an Italian that ate the seeds?
@@RaXXha whoosh.
Whoever ate the seeds, they need to be stopped.
MAKE IT YOUR OFFICE! Don't move the door. The current office would make sense as a bedroom.

If your down to the studs anyway I would suggest a pocket door
Literally about to suggest that! With the Murphy bed it would be a great open space!
I was going to say the same thing, easy to add one from the bedroom side since he has it all opened up
Not a bad idea.
I'm in 😊 I wanted to recommend as well

I second the many comments suggesting a cavity slider OR a barn door slider with all the left over remu studs from the old kitchen!
00:00 she go all out ITS HAMMER TIME🔨🔨🔨
particleboard drawers with dovetails? never seen anything like this haha
That was definitely a first for me too hahaha. Couldn't believe it
Ray, you have interesting "hands" there coming out of that hole in the ceiling!!! LOL Atlantic Canada always enjoying The Sunshine of "Ray!" 🍁
Nice to see how your deck has silvered! Always also great to see a bit of demolition. So interesting to see what is found when things get ripped out!
Yes I agree,how about a pocket door then?? I think a good solution maybe.😊

Wow! That extractor fan is sooo germinate xx
Nice work and very cathartic demo. Worked on plenty of kitchens like this and they don’t make them like this anymore.
Question. Why not a sliding door into the new bedroom?
Thats a great idea with the vacuum.
Usually taking apart a room is fun, but that looked like hard work. Amazing work as always good people.
If possible, change that hoods duct to hard kind, much easier to clean and contains fire, and even better fireproofing if wrapped in rock wool.
Yes, where i work flex duct isn’t allowed for range vents. A grease fire with the hood on could burn through flex.
What about a pocket door Scott?
Also more efficient and less noisy to use hard ducts.
This is why all Schweigen silent rangehoods come with Schweigen SteelFlex™ high-performance safety ducting at no extra cost. These perform optimally at their issued lengths and deliver quality performance at up to 3x that - when connected to an Isodrive® motor system.

Good design practice would always see a fire-rated ducting system extend to the house exterior, rather than to the ceiling cavity.

Best extraction fan ever, I've got same one and love it!!!!
Watching this before demolishing a kitchen 👌 looks like fun! Let’s get to it 💪
"Some guy built this to last".. funny thing is if you remember all those pans and containers were thick steel and glass back in the day.. we didn't have Tupperware back then.. so he didn't want the kitchen collapsing on Jess apparently!
I hope you saving the old sink for your shop or Jen's garden if your old refrigerator is still in usable condition you can use it in your shop
I asked for that brand of extractor due to its quietness, our builder said he used a brand which was just as quiet for half the price. It was *not* quiet - literally sounds like the gates of hell whenever we switch it on. 😂 We will be switching it out for a Schweigen this year.

Knew this would be awesome. Love kitchen demo.🇦🇺🎸⚡️🤘🏼🤘🏿💋❤️
Quick tip for this kind of work, put a fan in the window, that will help the dust get out of the room and protect from anything getting into the house.
If you have a floor fan point it out the window when you’ve something super dusty and it’ll draw the air out of the room and blow it outside.
Great work guys. More content please
Had a similar problem. Pocket door solved the space issue.
I hope the shoes had steel caps...safety first 😉. Great video as always Scott and Jess.
5:28 Scott shows the well built cupboard his hammer and the cupboard screams Don't hit me!! & falls apart !!
1:17 what is that corner filler piece?!?!?!!? of all the remodels i've done and seen, that's the first time ever laying my eyes a piece like that. oooof
Great episode, Scott and Jess!
Get it the ceiling space and kick the old ceiling lining and blow in insulation down, that looked rough tearing it down above your head
Invest in full face respirator. Makes jobs like that so much easier. Added confidence that it doesn’t get in your eyes too.
For the guests bedroom door,have you considered a sliding door?
Also that ducting length? Wouldn't oil deposit in the long horizontal section of that ducking, I would have through directly over the stove & range hood would have been better?
Hows Jess's arms after swinging that hammer?
So many questions, great show, & toes!😂
A pocket door would help to save space.
You can buy kits that are great.
Soooo looked forward for this smashing moment :D
Aaah the joys of tempered hardboard. What were they thinking?
Was just standard practice.
great to see you guys back at work, love the vibe of these episodes. Just one question, why don't you do a sliding door in the bedroom?
i think you will fine that hose you used for the exhaust fan will not meet codes for a stove exhaust because of the grease that is created from cooking. i think you need a smooth walled tubing.
3:10 We had one of those installed recently, the ducting comes as part of the kit. European made (german) and their standards for safety are pretty high so this and other comments regarding fat fires are intriguing. Great extractor tthough and v quiet.
Great demo work guys!! Well done SBC.🎉😎🎉
I’ve watched just 6 seconds and i’m commemnting already…..gotta love Jess smacking away at that tiled worktop 😂 that was some workout she was having, or was she getting something off her chest 😅
Jess really looks like she's enjoying the demo of that benchtop 😆
NGL, it was a little scary.
