TRANSFORMING an old WATER CISTERN into a HI-TECH GREENHOUSE Part 14: Time for a Floor!

- Опубликовано: 21 авг 2024
- The old water cistern is starting to look finished, but before Marc can move his hi-tech equipment in, he needs to lay a floor that's both good-looking and practical!
We live in a medieval castle with a huge, derelict estate in southern France. Follow our ambitious garden projects, from vineyards to formal gardens, tropical plants to self-sustainability. Our project is enormous and our enthusiasm contagious. We'd love you to join us.

Marc saying “I’m not an expert “ when everything he does has turned out great!
Marc did an excellent job laying the the travertine tiles, plus I really love the row of small blue tiles at the base of the wall!
I am not criticizing, only commentating that I've never seen spacers set like that before! Probably it's because they always go more than one row? I think it looked very nice & neat😊!!! I really Really like the floor tiles❤!!!
Marc’s doing a grand job 😁 glad to see he’s getting back to his usual self 😁
Marc you are just Blessed to be back and able to work again. We are so happy as your humor along with Amy makes this so so addictive. We want to see all your progress.
Margo’s a great worker!
Finding beautiful drain covers in the outbuildings is a good example of the treasures you look forward to stumbleing upon in a magical property❤
I’m so pleased you have recovered from your ordeal. Love the tiling. 😀
Great job! It's nice to see the care you bring to everything Marc. I hope your leg is healing nicely!
Your garden building has such personality evolving with Margo's pebble mosaic and the travertine floor & aqua tile base tiles. A happy growing place!
Dear Marc, I’m so happy to see you back to work and moving around again. Great job laying the limestone and the tiles. This very important room is nearing completion. You must be very excited about this phase of the greenhouse project. Stay safe. ❤
So good to see you out and about again, Marc! Well done on the tiling job - it's gonna look amazing!
GREAT to see Marc🙂
“Just his normal amount of inflexibility” - absolutely priceless
Love the color of the tiles. ❤
Margot is really a gem - so lucky to have her 💖
How wonderful that Mark is able to do things again! And it looks great!😊
Love the lovely soft colour in the green house . Pleased your back on your feet 😊
This was before…
Cant believe how the inside of an old water tank can be transformed into something so practical and beautiful!
I couldn't either! It was Marc who had the vision!
Love the colors of the tiles together! Glad to see you’re recovering.
Looking real good Marc ... so anxious to see it up and running ... gardening has always been a passion of mine
I like the skirting tiles. Your work room will be attractive with those and travertine floor tiles. Excellent!
The blue tiles allude to the building’s previous incarnation as a cistern-and maybe soften the interior a bit. Always fun to see progress on spaces that are part of longer term plans. Things don’t always need to be linear, sometimes there is satisfaction in formulating an aesthetic where you least expect it!
You are two of the hardest working people on the chateau videos. You have really come a long way.
Thank you very much! We wish we could film everything we do so that we can share it, but then we wouldn't ever get anything done! What you see is about 20% of what we do here!
the drain is very attractive, and the narration really helps to understand the goal of the greenhouse and the work to accomplish it.
Marc, I'm quite happy to see you up and about again. Those bluish tiles in the garden house are terrific! Take care and stay well. DA
Great job of the tiles, Marc! Nice of you to pick one of my favourite colours for the “baseboard”. 😊
Marvellous to see Marc back on his feet! He was one blessed man! Love to all the family! Beautiful tiling job! Also I really like your choice of background music. It compliments the action and doesn't intrude on the viewer's attention. X G Ire
Very happy to see Marc is recovering well and back at work with his passion project. Am impressed with Marc’s skill and patience in laying of the floor and skirting tiles. Beautifully done. Excellent video and love Margot’s enthusiasm and smile. 😊
Whatever Marc does always turns out great!
It might be a utility space but you have created a beautiful and inspiring space it will be a joy to work in. ❤
Watching Mark work before the accident was bittersweet. I was thinking “ He is so amazing, but how is he feeling now?” 🙏🙏
He’s so much better now thank you!
Craftsman at work 😊
Looking really good Marc.
What a lovely utility space!!! It gets better with every stage. I agree that there’s no reason to have it be basic. The retro blue tiles go well with the back wall, and of course the floor is lovely. 👍
Marc, so glad that you’re doing so well. ♥️♥️♥️
Brilliant job Mark 🍰☕🤗👍
Love Sue ❤❤❤🇬🇧❤❤❤
This is such a fun project to watch come to life.
❤❤❤
Marc and Amy - I get withdrawal symptoms when not seeing your Saturday videos by late afternoon! So glad to see Marc walking around - can Amy put him on a lease to keep him safe??
Thanks!
Thank you very much Jane!
The tiles look great, Marc. That will be a fancy greenhouse. Take care of that leg. It is good to see you up and about.❤
Looks terrific Marc! Hope you leg is feeling better. Happy to see you back at work.
Marc is getting better and better at being. RUclips host. Not to mention all his beautiful hard work. You go Marc!
I think your dog needs a good haircut guys? And a great job tilling the floor Marc 😊
Bernese mountain dogs must never be shaved or cut! They have a two coat system where they lose an undercoat in summer, and the top layer stays loose and allows air flow against the skin. If you shave or cut them then it grows back thick and stubby and makes them way too hot in summer!
I was surprised to hear travertine was being used as not the most inexpensive type of tile hopeful you got a deal on it. I would have used tommettes myself it will be a nice mechanical room no less :) glad you got it done before the accident no less would have been not have been possible now. Look forward to seeing what he does with this room when he is ready. Will you have a WC in this room or do you have another close by. Good thing these tiles are small and easy to install love the colour would also work well in the coach house if you had more ;) glad you are healing nicely and able to continue on :) also on the window sill of that room would look lovely :)
Travertine is about a fifth the cost of tommettes!
Tiles are So pretty and artistic : takes the room several notches up!
Lots of best wishes to you Marc it is good to see you healthy 🤗. This is a wonderful project . Thanks to you both for engaging video. Looking great 👏❤
Beautiful greenhouse love the floor and skirting board tiles - if you have any left they would look lovely on your window sill ❤
Wow looks really good thanks for sharing ❤
Great video Marc! Love the color of those tiles.
Marc what a good job you’ve done with Margo s occasional help . Need to take care of that leg though 🏴
Great job. Love the tile choice
I'm glad🎉 to see you getting better with the unjury.
Those little tiles are just right it was a good buy
Love the light blue tile ❤nice job .
BEST WISHES TO YOU
Looks great, well done!
Looking good. And the tile work as well.
Great job all the best hugs
Beautiful job. It looks lovely in there ❤
Amazing, marks work is fabulous
Looking really great Marc. I hope you are continuing to heal K🤣❤️
Thank you for answering my question last week!
Looking beautiful!
I had to laugh when I saw him pulling the big "push broom",,,as it's really much easier pushing the dirt 3:28 away. But if you've never seen it, you wouldn't know! Oops!,, he did push broom! 😂
This is another great job here, looking so good! 🎉❤❤
Looks great
I love the combo of the natural travertin with the small blue tiles! You really have an eye for these things 😊
The tiles look great. Just a suggestion if there’s enough little tiles left they may look nice on your window ledge. 😊
Looks awesome Marc ❤ 👋 🇦🇺
good job 😊
Good to see you back Marc. Making a great job of the tiling. The blue border is inspired in that old building 😊
It’s just going to be such a beautiful room for plants to grow in. I love the blue tile it so light brightens things up. ❤ It’s great to see Marc.
Good to see that Marc is protecting his ears and eyes when cutting the tiles. Are the tiles a soft dusty blue or are there other colours amongst hem It's a little difficult to see at my end. I agree they give a lovely look to the utility room.
Looks very nice ❤
Looks amazing! 🎉
Looking great Marc,good to see you back to work! Well done
Good Job!
Love the tiles. I amazed at how quickly Marc has recovered from the accident!
It took him a few weeks - most of this video was filmed before the accident, but we already had a backlog of videos to put out! But yes after a month he was back in great shape!
A great job and lovely result. I quite agree that it gives great satisfaction having not simply functional but also beautiful tiles in utility rooms. A noticeable difference and not much more expensive in the long run for the pleasure they give. I did the same in our cellar. xxx
Love the thumb nail!
Great video. Love the tiling especially the blue ones. I'm glad your leg is getting better
Nice!
Awesome job❤
You should get a low rolling seat for all the tile work... kneeling isn't fun. Scooting back and forth is easier and will save your back and legs.
Sounds like a good idea if we do larger surfaces in future!
Well done Marc, that all looks great .
🌟👏👍🍀💐
The tiles looks perfect, they fit very well the "Shed". As always the extra Mile for the Details.
Good to see Marc getting well. 🙌
👋👍❤️
Glad Marc is recovering well but it would be great if you could convince him to wear safety shoes/boots when using the angle grinder (or doing any other construction works for that matter).
Yep. That would be great, I agree! Trouble is he hates hot feet, and it's very hot work a lot of the time!
How's Marc leg hope it's healing well x
Fantastic work, Marc! Those floor tiles with their textured surface will be difficult to keep clean in your hydroponics room... limestone also stains easily... but the look is to die for.
The floor isn’t finished yet! We will be grouting the surface.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Nice job!
Love your channel, what would the water cistern been originally used for. Regards Helen
It was a large water tank for storing water that came in from one of the springs. I think in our earliest video on this playlist we explain about the origins of this tank, which are quite interesting.
Your knees deserve a vacation...!
I’m
Surprised Marc can bear pressure on that leg. He is doing an amazing job.
It was filmed before the accident
💞💞💞💞💞💞☕
The tiles look great and very suitable for “mission control” water. The drain covers are also lovely; will there be more in The Greenhouse?
I think the floor will be earth in the greenhouse itself but I’ll check with Marc!
I wish he wasn't breathing in all that stone dust. The skirting is really nice.
Loo fine
That’s too thin and the “comb” should have wider bigger teeth. Otherwise those large tiles will crack. Those little border tiles are the perfect touch for the greenhouse.
Good to see you mobile again Marc, why no kneeling pads :( believe me you will be paying the price in later life with knee pain. Great tiling on floor and edges.
He has some but couldn't find them to begin with. The curse of having too many buildings, two small children, and a lot of different projects going on!
