Make sure you guys verify that brick isn't a chimney for a furnace, water heater, or dryer. Plus don't tear it down until you have the means to prevent more damage to the structure from a collapse.
What kind of camera do you use?
2:35 Have you heard of something called load-bearing walls? Do you want a building to fall on your head? Hire specialists
ANY of the furniture and cabinets etc that have not been thrown out, go back thru them and look in all nooks and crannies, under and in, and look for secret compartments. Many people used to hide cash and valuables back in those days. Another place is above doorframes and windows but those I would think you’d run across while ripping out.
Also, even more importantly, see next part….. it’s the Momma Bear protector naturally coming out in me. lol
I posted in comments, on this same video, about a serious life threatening issue my BF is experiencing after a flip like this. Not as a fear mongering distraction but as a PLEASE be cautious and keep going!
the "no abestos" is a huge win in a house this old, it'll make everything else easier and less hazardous, very nice.
I felt like I won the lottery when we found out there was no asbestos in the drywall/insulation. I was 99% confident we'd have it in the walls. 🎉
@@JennaPhipps I bought a house recently built in 1952, felt the same way. Your vids really keep me grounded when I wanna complain about projects I'm doing, I have a working roof and toilets 🤣🤣
@@dbman992 OMG, toilets are bad but I am worried the roof will the end of me 😂
@@JennaPhipps the house we reno'ed was built in '67/68, and didn't have it in the drywall itself but had it in the drywall mud. One of the big reasons we decided to get it removed professionally.
@@JennaPhippsAfter demo the roof comes next!
“I’m fixing a house that everyone told me I couldn’t fix” love that energy. Hell yeah Jenna keep proving them wrong!
That was me. I told her that. :P
omg i said the same thing lol
You can fix most of things if you have the motivation, and ofcourse some savings!
Easier to say that to do it. Reality is reality. That project is too big for those two and is going to be very expensive.
I wish it truly was her but she has everyone else doing what she is taking credit for
*starts talking to the camera* dad: ".... .... ??? what's the matter??" such a dad moment.
The camera is always on the tripod somewhere and lots of the time it's not even on so it's hard to tell if I am filming or not 😂
hiii jenna you are doing great. its looking so good
When i record my videos to me is the issues with the microphone often the camera is on and the microphone is off, so i look like a mime wanna be @@JennaPhipps
He looked and sounded just like my dad there, it was eerie 🤣
You are so blessed to have your parents by your side helping, and a young man who obviously is in it for the long haul. Your house is going to be amazing.
I found her in my Feeds when she started this project, and when i started my RUclips, sience then i wait every W for her to post ,and it always make me wonder how could it would be to be like that someday, i doubt about my family because they are just different and .. stuff.. but i hope in one day i will have someone stay by me , buy or build a house together, then to live in it, would be such a treasure.
Came for the crochet stayed for the house remodel, Looks so different to when you started jenna! Well done to you and your team
Came for the thrifting, stayed for the crocheting, and am absolutely loving the rebeautification of this house!
Came for the crochet, stayed for the thrifting and here for the house remodel and decoration. Looking forward to finally getting back to the crochet again with some thrifted home decor for good measure. Glad we're all on the same pages. Haha! @Sistafeed
@sorcharudden same😅
"I took a break from filming yesterday" she says...*inserts b-roll film from yesterday* JENNA you're a gem, and I appreciate you.
That old-school plasterboard is way heavier and sturdier than modern drywall. That’s why it’s heavier than you expected.
Might be even heavier if it's soaked up a lot of water.
Even modern drywall isn’t light 🥴 and yes, moisture over the years probably made this old drywall way heavier too! This work is not for the faint of heart! But it will absolutely be worth it in the long run! 🤩💯
That's what I thought would be too. We built 1945 and it's all plaster.
(Retired interior designer).....Before you call the roofer call the architect or an engineer who works with drainage and water. Flat roofs are notorious for not draining properly. My guess is you should not replace the roof before getting a proper consult on drainage concerns. Make sure to document -(as you are) all the areas that had standing water & rot. The new roof may look similar but it will likely be designed differently this go round. The previous owners didn't fix it and this is probably why....They may have been aware that they would have to do the work you are doing now, and also to rework the original roofline. IMO it probably leaked from day one. At the time FLAT was a "new" design concept we have more info about this today.
Agreed - roof first
I hope she either knows, or sees your comment, or more problems later are coming.
Yes!!! This all day !!!! FIX THE ROOF!
Absolutely this! Hopefully they'll design a new roofline that has enough slope to drain properly, while still looking "flat" from the important vantage points to maintain the mid-century modern aesthetic.
Yep, I'd just plain change the roofline if it didn't cost the price of a space rocket.
If the wood hasn't gotten soaked. I'd save every piece I could. Years ago I helped a friend demo his "home that couldn't be fixed." It was from the 1960s. He was getting rid of all the wood paneling because he said it made the house dark. I took it, planed it to get rid of the varnish and redid my home office with it. About six months later he sees it and says "Oh, this is fabulous. So warm and welcoming. Wait. This is from my house. I thought it'd be darker." What you have is thinner, but not nearly as dark as his was.
The brick wall, might be the exhaust chimney for the furnace. Or a tomb.
For the ant eviction fund... Your house is really neat. It's so great that you are making it truly yours and are taking us along for the ride. Many thanks!
FYI I think the brick wall is the flue for the furnace and probably the water heater best check before you demolish.
modern furnace/heater won't use it so might as well demolish to free up the space and give more options for layout (plus one less hole through the new roof)
Maybe load bearing ..??
It's not on the plans for the house so
Might be treasure in there
@@AnniCarlssonit could have been added as a result of an inspection or a realization that the structure needed additional support. That type of thing happens a lot because architects are not engineers.
Some construction sites make "slides" from every floor that leads to the bin, maybe you can figure out something to avoid going up and down the stairs every time you have to dispose of something
I always been fobic about slides lol, i don't know why, i'd rather throw it out of window, and pick it when i'm down
I had said earlier to put a tarp down then tear down then drag it out.
Ripping everything out to start fresh is really awesome. New wiring and new plumbing and built back better. You will have a multimillionaire dollar house in a fantastic location that will last another 70 years. You guys rock.
It was a multi-million dollar listing when she bought it. 😖
@@chicky6three ehhh that's Canada for you 🤷♀️
@@chicky6threewow! Should have known. It's Vancouver after all.
@@chicky6threeshe paid millions of dollars for this?!
What's the address?
This beautiful house deserves a second life. I love watching the progress updates!
I love the place and the home, i really wish she would tell us how much it costed, or i missed it or something but i watch sience being and didn't saw her mention how much she paid for it. Maybe for Privacy reasons, which are understable, but this house looks so expensive even when was abandoned, because of the placement, and what it has looks and feels expensive.
@@SuitedSkaterLion It was probably for much less than the value because of the condition of the home and because it was not fully cleared prior to the sale
Re that Cub stuff: consider looking at donations to local heritage museums OR considering private buyers. For a long time, many Scouts/Guides groups kept all of their old materials, but there's been a recent push towards "take a digital photo, share it online, and throw out the original" with memorabilia like this, whereas private collectors wouldn't have that same mentality.
My two boys were in scouts from grade school into high school. Camp Miakonda in NW Ohio is one of the oldest scout camps in the country, and they have a scout museum on their property. So please check into a local cub scout pack or boy scout troop and see if you can donate those things so that they can go into a museum. ❤️
Thank you for the videos on your house. You are doing a remarkable job! I keep looking for the next one!
Rent a port a potty on the house site while you are working on it. Sounds like the best option to me. Either that or get a camping toilet and take it to a dump station and empty it every now and then. Problem solved.
Where i live, where you make house, they always make a Toilet by diging some metters in the ground ,then covering it (like a tiny house) ,and making like a seat inside, so you just po po here lol, and when you're done and have a toilet functional, you just cover it all up.
Put a caravan on site
Like saw dust toilets?
Saw dust toilette are the best, we always build them in the garden with a small wood hut around and it's so cheap and smells good🌷🌱🌿
The pellets for a sawdust toilet are super cheap.
One day, you will look back on these hard demolition days and realize just how much fun this renovation was to do. The never ending dry wall to the house taking a leak. A chance to make the home your own. And great news on the asbestos not being anywhere in the home.
The thing to remember about open concept houses is that the noise is going to bounce around and smells too. It's nice to have separate spaces because of that.
This is one of my favorite series currently on RUclips. Heck, across streaming platforms!
Who knew that subscribing to a fun fiber arts RUclipsr, would lead to this. Looking forward to the end result, and the journey there.
It's such a shame that the home became under such disrepair. I think if the roof had been replaced, most of the damage could have been avoided. I'm assuming a roof is first on your list. Love your videos and following your journey.😊❤
Think she said something about the walls so bad they must open that up and replace parts before they can do the roof. Guess maybe it's not sure the walls can acculy hold a new heavy roof instead of what are on now
I just hope she's making the home Safe, and it will resist, i don't mind much what she changes or not, because is her home, i just look at it, and admire her putting her own life into it , and changing it to be her home, not mine, not your, not someone else, but hers. I love to see her personality thru her home!
She’s explained why she couldn’t do the roof yall are being sexist in my opinion listen to the words coming out of her mouth PLEASE. You cannot put a new roof on walls that aren’t sturdy!!!
@@spacebar9733 eh what?
I believe she has “stopped te bleeding” by tarping the roof until she has a clearer picture of what needs doing.
Oh man I love that wood ceiling….😢
What a bummer the wood ceiling panels had to come off. But ya’ll have done so much good work! What a job!
She's planning on putting in a new wood ceiling don't worry
Very sad that such a beautiful house was forgotten and neglected for so long. This is a big job, sending some energy your way and thank you for sharing the journey
That "open concept" wall is likely a shear wall and cannot be removed without structural engineer approval. The diagonal boards are the clue that this is a shear wall. A shear wall keeps the walls from racking under wind or ceiling loads. You may have seen the house under construction collapse because of a lack of shear walls.
On the drywall front, remember that all the drywall that is removed is going to have to be replaced, and they will be full panels that are heavier. You also probably can't fill a bin with drywall without going overweight.
casually ripping down drywall while she shows the "treasures" is a vibe
Every time a new episode comes out I immediately watch! I still can’t believe how much work has to be done on this house, you guys are amazing.
Same, and i especialy bring all the food on my desk and start munching on it as i watch lol.
those boy scout items absolutley need to go in a museum
Normally, I can be a bit impatient about watching this sort of thing. But this time, I’m actually so happy that I caught this journey from the first video. Is so cool how much of a difference you guys have already made
Ok, so I guess when I posted about how I was hoping you could salvage as much of the character and charm and furniture that was left in this home, I spoke way too soon! I didn’t realize it wouldn’t be salvageable & your plans were to completely gut the house. However, I have complete confidence that you guys will restore some of that character and charm, making this your dream home! You will also appreciate it so much more, since you’re literally putting blood, sweat, and tears into this project. I can’t wait to continue watching the progress videos and ultimately, the finished home! 🤩🥰🙌🏼💯 Thank you for sharing your journey with us! I LOVE this house! 🥹
I wish she would have salvaged at least some parts of the home that was in good condition like the wood paneling 😭 they were in perfect condition I thought she was going to remove them carefully so she could reinstall them 😢
@@eja0516 Probably not in perfect condition with all the water damage, mold and ants...
I'd totally inspect that brick column. It might be housing some necessary plumbing or vent runs, plus I'd leave it and make it a feature. Great that there's no asbestos anywhere...big win!!
Well done!!!
a cant be the only one the loves how jenna puts the most relaxing music on while she's destroying the walls ❤
Yes, love this quirky combo ❤
This house is so incredibly beautiful. Looking out those windows out onto the pool. Like omg. It’s a dream! They don’t make houses like this anymore and it’s such a shame. So much character then the shitty rectangle boxes for houses we have now. So glad you guys got ahold of this house rather than someone else and they just knock it down. ❤️ cheers
I think it was obviously custom built.
They make houses like that are the Modern ones, but them are super expensive... I love tall houses with big tall windows and doors, and all white with black. I like her house if it was mine i'd go for a mix of modern with it, i know peoples would have hated me 😂,but i love she puts her own personality in it.
The lake view also!
14:50 the eternal sunshine of the spotless mind music 😭😭😭
This is my favorite series on RUclips right now
Residential plans are not always updated as the structure is built, and they are rarely updated with the AHJ/City after a structure is built. With the concrete block wall I would have a Structural Engineer come look at it after the drywall and insulation are removed. Yes, it’s $750 for an hour of their time but a good SE is really helpful and they can assist you with identifying a lot of issues, or areas for improvement. A good SE will also look at several things if the time you buy is more than what it takes them to look at one issue. On a mid-century modern house that an architect built for themselves, I would absolutely recommend you get an SE involved because that design style sometimes pushed the limit of construction technology at the time it was built, and now that time has past and building technology has improved some structural components of the house may need rebuilt or strengthened. Also, based on the renderings you showed last video you’ll need someone to tell you how to reconfigure load bearing walls.
I love Jenna's music choices in her videos.
Do you know the song around the 5 minute mark? Googling the words turns up nothing
@Rabbits6130 I can't find it, either. If you figure it out, please post and I'll do the same.

@@donicaleigh Thank you!!
@@donicaleigh You are a saint! Thank you!!
I love it. You are fearless, Jenna. Water pouring down from the ceiling. It did not phase you at all. You just grabbed the tub to collect the water. Thanks for this great video today
"faze", not "phase"
I feel like for the amount of people working on this house there’s been sooo much progress already!! I’m super excited to see everything come together in the end!
Ngl I watch and interact with these videos so you'll have more money to finish your house, even if I don't actually like watching house videos. You deserve a nice home, and I'll do what I can to support that
I liked the water feature in the kitchen, different….
I have been enjoying your journey to save this beautiful home. As an Architectural Designer and Scouter I really enjoyed this episode. That was an awesome find of Scouting memorabilia.
I was watching this and thinking how hard you are working, how sore and overwhelmed you might get. I wondered how many years have been shed and will be. Hang in there. This will be an amazing project.
Honestly she's moving super fast, and i can't imagine how rought it is to have to do all this work + record. Maybe she pays someone to edit which makes things sightly easier about the editing, but still having to move around with cameras and such is quite tiring, i know it on my self.@@35406
I'm really enjoying this series. What a challenge you folks have taken on. So many beautiful homes are left to waste. Thanks for giving this house new life. Thanks for sharing.
My home is a mid-century ranch home built in 1951. We have a brick chimney that services all the piping/ventilation from the furnace to the attic/roof. Pretty sure that is why you have a chimney that wasn’t on the plans.
Drywall is not fun at all. I love how everyone is work horses in your family. ❤ best part is the bonding that is going on here. 🎉. Beautiful job.
Thank you Mom and Dad! What great helpers! Looking good!
This series is so fun, I look forward to it every week. Keep going yall!
The leap from crocheting and sewing to building a home is huge, I'm enjoying watching your life journey way too much
So wonderful your parents are assisting
Keep that gorgeous white oval light fixture for sure! Lighting a house is verrrry pricey and it’s a vintage stunner!
it wouldn't be very glamorous but maybe renting a porta-potty to keep outside the demo house might help with "breaks" lol
I know you have made that neighborhood SOOOO happy! And I can imagine the neighborhood - there is one in almost every town, and it's where everyone wants to live. What a wonderful story.
Jenna, the boyscout stuff is worth a lot of money. Love watching you both tear down the house. It is going to be beautiful when you are done.
I’m in Maine and restoring a house that was abandoned for 12 years and was built in 1860, so glad you are doing this!!!
I can already see how nice this place can be. even at this stage. removing drywall is the worse part
Just think by the end of this you’re going to have a uniquely gorgeous home, become swole af, and you can start a carpentry business with your experience 😂🩷 lol I’m absolutely loving this series! I had to make sure to turn on notifs so I could stop obsessively checking your channel 🥰
Sir Nicholas didn't disappoint when you asked him to kick the wall. Even I, had a jump scare ^^
I was super sceptical when I first randomly saw your Instagram videos but I’m becoming so invested! This is reminding me of an HGTV show where this woman bought a house n Detroit for a dollar and brought it back to life. Only local to me I’m pretty sure with all the PNW vibes… and such a beautiful home! I’d love something like this but I’m just going to keep watching you because I can’t afford even a square m of land around here. And you have so much energy.
Kudos to you and Nick for taking on this incredibly HUGE project. Blessings on your parents for their willingness to help! It will be a relief and feel far less daunting once the demolition is complete and restoration can begin. You're getting there. Keep up the good work! 😘
13:21 When I was in middle school we had a flooded basement at my family vacation home and I threw my back out at like 12 years old lifting wet dry wall. It's no joke. Many many trips is definitely the way to go.
Once all the dry wall is down you can start to put your house back together. It's nice when you have your parents help keep up the good work x
I haven't had a television in well over 10 years, also get thee a monitor stand that doesn't sit on the desk like that, mine has an arm that moves in all directions, it is fabulous!
This is my current favorite series on RUclips ❤ loving getting to experience the full renovation process 😊
A kett saw is your best friend when doing any kind of drywall demo.
Work smarter, not harder 😅 tarps on the ground to catch all the smaller bits wouldve saved so much time.
Now i know if i ever have enough money to buy a house i need to renovate ha
Hey Jenna! Me and my partner are also renovating a house from the 70s. Our drywall was covered in plaster! It’s old school drywalling. I think yours might be too! And it makes it so much heavier! You’re killing it, love watching the progress!
It's so satisfying to see all that rotten moldy stuff getting removed. But oh boy am I glad I'm just watching from afar... I do not envy you for all this work. Wishing you lots of energy and as few bad surprises as possible!
Now with the walls down, I would think about moving a bedroom around. Maybe one downstairs and enlarging the other two. I know this place will never look like it did, but it's going to be beautiful.
Your house is going to look so amazing when you are done! I mean, it already looks better than it did. I am so glad you are fixing up this old beauty!
This house is well built! you can tell by all the diagonal bracing. I much prefer an older well built house than any new construction. Hopefully the roof won't give too much trouble. Sending good vibes from Lafayette Louisiana!!!
The reason the drywall is so heavy is you are dealing with what was called rock lath it replaced wood lath in was the the beginning of drywall but they still skim coated the entire wall with plaster and plaster is not light. Now days we have large sheets of drywall and only the seems are coated with light weight drywall compound. That's how it's done in the Midwest in the states anyhow. I've been hanging and finishing drywall for 25 years now.
taking down that drywall looks so therapeutic and satisfying. I can't wait to see how it all ends up.
Rejoicing in your dumpster! (*happy dance*)
Excellent progress! 👏👏👏
Good to see you getting more assistance in the demo/cleanup process.😄
Is that a chimney you're taking down?
Possibly to vent the heater/hot water tank?
@@amysbees6686that was my first thought.
if wood paneling ends up being too expensive to redo for the ceiling, sandblasted plywood looks great for ceilings in midcentury homes.
It’s seriously cool that you are giving this home new life! Don’t mind the haters. You got this! Hope you’re booking yourselves some massages because this is hard work!!!
The haters are jelous of her, and i understand them, they are frustated, i mean she got a man that help her, she got her family that help her, she got a Treasure of a house... Those peoples are boiling of jelousy
What haters? I have only seen people worrying for their health and giving advice
On the other hand, y’all are doing so well and getting tons done and it’s looking so good! I’m tickled that the drywall room has drywall in it. This is lovely to watch. Proud of you guys. ❤
I’m loving your weekly updates.
I have been dreaming to get myself abandoned house since I was little and recover it. It is a hella lot of work tho and I enjoy to watch your progress. ❤
Agree with others. The brick wall is there for a reason, have someone knowledgeable check it out before removal.
I enjoy watching people restore/rebuild their homes. I love your videos! I hate watching people act like they have a “terrible problem “ that looks like what my husband and I encounter and deal with on a regular basis. I love that you deal with each situation in an optimistic way. Yes, it’s a mess, but you can do it. I’m looking forward to watching your journey. You’ll do a great job. 😃
Mom is a beast!!
You are so precious. Your family and boyfriend too. I love that this project is so positive even with all the issues. ❤ thx for sharing this journey with us.
The brick is likely a chimney for an old (or current) hot water heater/heating system. I had something very similar in my 50s ranch... i just covered it with thin brick and made it a ~feature~. Love this series, cant wait to see all the future progress!
Jenna, I found your videos through the very first reel you made about the house and I’ve been a fan ever since. I’ve tried to follow a lot of other house remodelers but something about you, this house, and the way you make your videos has captivated me. Rooting for you and this gorgeous house!!!
I had just mentioned to my wife that I could see you had the "pre-drywall" drywall. That is, it is not drywall at all. Then you stopped to talk about how heavy it is. Yep. We had the same thing in our 1948 modern style house in Seattle. Late 1940s to early 1950s, a product was used in transition from traditional plaster and lathe, but before drywall or gypsum board was in common use. The product you have is a board product, but not using lightweight gypsum, and instead a heavy "filling" between the paper facing that is more like plaster. Then plaster is applied after the board is up to give a plaster and lathe look. Boy is that "plaster board" product heavy and very dense. It made the old houses from this period very solid and very quiet.
Also, I assume the concrete column you encountered is a flue - maybe for a furnace downstairs?
Check out what the brick wall is before you knock it down. It looks like it was put in later. It looks like the door used to be wider.
Can't believe you just ripped the beautiful wooden ceiling down and not try and save it by taking it down gently, that will cost you a fortune to replace, wood is hell of a expensive
I'm sure they know what they're doing
@@d.oertlicheno, they are amateurs. They are not experienced or educated in building or renovation or restoration.
This house was underwater for sometime, I guess the ceilings must be rotten and not worth the keep
I’m so sad she did this too 😢 that wood ceiling was in great condition there was nothing wrong with that wood. I really thought she was going to take it down carefully to reinstall it later.
I admire how un-phased and cheerful you are. I’d be an annoyed, terrified piece of work, worrying every step of the way. I’d definitely have a hard time laughing if water ran down from my ceiling like Niagra Falls. Kudos!!!
Make yourself a ramp down to the dumpster with some plywood. It will save you a lot of time and energy.
Love these comments keep it up Jenna can’t wait to see finished 👍👍
Hahaha... you crack me up! I love your sense of humor...so drywall is also known as gyprock. The clue is in the name 🤣😂😅 We are really enjoying watching the process of your renovation. 👍
Wow! Shout out to your parents, demo work is for the young, but they killed it with the drywall.
You should think about maybe installing a piece of half plywood on the stairs going to the dumpster. You could wheel the cart down and also the wheelbarrow. Really enjoying the videos and the progress you guys have made
I was going to say the same thing. Unless it's a lot steeper than it looks, the ramp will save your back and your knees.
That gold pull-down lamp is so mint. 💚
Jenna your a work horse💕. Love that your renovating a home and not taking it to the ground and do a new build. Your home will be one of a kind when your done and I’m sure it will be beautiful. Always looking forward in see you progress. So awesome your boy friend is on this journey with you and that your parents are there to help. That’s awesome.
If you make these awesome videos 40 mins to an hours, I wouldn’t be mad 😂
This place looks like it will be amazing once the work is completed. You and Nick also your parents are working hard to get it finished. Keep it up, it will so worth it!
Thank you for sharing your journey with me. I have enjoyed every video you have posted of your new house and how you are renovating it and making it your own.
Wow! Amazing progress. I am so excited for your journey. I love watching the shorts as well and the photos of the original home in it's heyday. It is so wonderful that you see the beauty in this old girl and want to get her back to being a loved and lived in home.
Jenna, don't listen to the nay sayers. You and your friend are doing a great job! I may not be your mom. But, I am proud of you.
