  • In this video I completely gut my bedroom down to the studs. I update all the wiring/insulation, build a built in closet, and do everything from the drywall to finishing the hardwood floors by myself. This was 3 months work as I had a full-time day job and I edited it down to 22 minutes! For a more in depth look at this project, check out my 8 part series below...
    Watch how I turn my 2 bedroom house into a 3 bedroom in my "Epic 3-in-1 Remodel" Video here: • Epic 3 in 1 Remodel | ...

Worth the gut, and re-tile to find.

      I was saying the entire video, boy I bet this burned him out. Getting all of the money is nice but the work can burn one out. Electrical, sheetrock, demo, trash removal, cleaning, recessed lighting, finishing the sheetrock, painting, building the cabinets, hanging doors and trim. He pretty much knows all of the trades. Do three of these and you'll learn life is sweeter if you just get paid for managing the job.

    The transformation of the floor was jaw-dropping! I was confused by the baseboard heater, though. He took such care to take the wall out behind it and leave the unit, even when he put new sheetrock behind it. It made me think he was planning on keeping it. But then BAM new baseboard unit. Why not take it out during the demo? They come off the wall with just a couple of screws. I'm glad he got the new ones because they look great.

      And in the end there was some shit all over the house even after taping it, not alot to exaggerate, but we had 2 days to clean up!

    • @spacewolfcub
      @spacewolfcub 5 лет назад +5

      Licensing. Wait, no -- research. The first thing to worry about is that City Hall won't come after you (assuming you own the place). Any time you even break a big hole into a wall it could be considered "construction" by City Hall, so first research what kind of home renovation licenses City Hall has and when they kick in. Then research safety in regards to insulation and electrical wiring. Be warned, if breaking off walls and things reveals health hazards like molds, or structural hazards like rotting studs, or fire hazards like crumbling wiring... The price tag could climb sky high (on the plus side, it would be good for your health to know these things).

    • @FatimaHama

      Thank you all so much for your replies and time. I'm not american and I don't live in the US, over here the walls are made using bricks and they are rock solid taking down a wall is a much more complex thing as it requires more than removing the nails and attachments and tearing it down. you need real heavy construction and a consultation with an engineer beforehand so the whole house doesn't fall down of your head
