    Louis had a beautiful little helper, Emma is growing up fast. I’ll miss Louis, he’s an amazing helper to Edd. I wish him well in his future endeavors. The front door will be beautiful, I love the colors you’ve chosen. ❤

    Having shutters that close is important for during storms and if the house needs to be closed up for any reason they are extra security. Keeping as much of the old stuff as you can is what gives the building it's Character. Some people pay extra for Character. Anna is right!!

    Hi Edd,
    You should apply one more HEAVY COAT of stripper. Let it dry and REMOVE the iron grate from the door frame so you don't damage the wood. Then use a PRESSURE WASHER on the iron. Repeat stripper if necessary but the pressure washer should do the trick for you.

    • @MrT-cz8ol
      @MrT-cz8ol 4 месяца назад +2

      If possible the pressure washer idea is a good one. I concur. 🙂

    Build a set of shelves in a cabinet on wheels to fit in the bathroom under the stairs. Make them so they’ll fit easily next to the loo. Easy to remove if you need to get to the area under the stairs.

  • @brittawrolson5936
    @brittawrolson5936 4 месяца назад +24

    The outside of the building is looking soooo much better after the thorough bleach wash. And as Edd has noted, he will show us what the finished walls will look like after he sands down, replaces damaged stone, and renders where required. Based on the work done at the Passion Project, it will no doubt be spectacular. Look forward to seeing it🤗

    @Epoxinator 4 месяца назад +5

    RE tips for stripping, get the cheapest plastic wrap you can find, and layer it on top of the stripper as soon as you apply the stripper on the surface you are stripping. It keeps the active ingredients from evaporating as quickly, and it helps keep the paint from hardening again. When you are ready to remove the paint, pulling off the plastic wrap also pulls off quite a lot of the softened paint with it.

    • @wendysinclair-smith984

    • @Epoxinator
      @Epoxinator 4 месяца назад +1

      @@wendysinclair-smith984 The stripper I used didn't melt the plastic. Caveat, though: I was using an "orange stripper" that I purchased here in California in the US. Best to test the plastic wrap beforehand with the stripper they are using.

    to the bone by your door doctor, then re-painted, again...Bon voyage to dear Louis; what a special worker and friend he has been. Hoping to
    see videos of his new enterprise in London, creating hats, once he gets going on that...Fun, too, to see your little one, Emma, and dog, when
    door scraping was being tackled...Know that your project is moving towards completion at a good clip, now...Amazing how the end is in view.
    Many thanks for including us, your viewers, in your re-storing, remodeling endeavors.

    I think the iron parts should be sandblasted separately and than powdercoated. That way they will be safe from rust forever. I would put a glass pane behind the iron instead of the wood panel. It will make the entrance much lighter from inside.
