The house seems to be protected from the wind by the barns at its east and north side, and gets sun from the south and the west. Is the winter climate rough, with a lot of cold northernly and easterly winds? Back in 1700`s the owners probably wanted to reduce the wind chill and conserve on firewood?
Alright mate. Fantastic work. I was watching the video and thinking to myself this is definitely not fat from me. I live near auch . Grew up here too. Is the scierie in montaut by st Michel by any chance? That’s where I go . Looks similar
Hi Carl Rogers, live in France myself, have also renovated A-Z my house 3 years ago. Like your renovation style, looks like you know what you're doing! Good luck, will fallow your channel closely.
Looks like they dont. Removing a single abestos slate on a roof like that is worth thousands of euros in fine. I cant imagine how much for the whole. Look for Fibro ciment french régulation...
@@manunumber12 I don't see what's wrong: they do not cut it, so no dust. It is solid plates, not "flocage" in France as a private person you are allowed to dismount your asbestos plates by yourself and where the protection you want. Before disposal you just need to cover the plates right (in a thick plastic film) and to dispose it at a specialized facility. The regulations are indeed much more strict, when you're doing the same thing as a professional company.
@@alexeiouspenski5302 well, my bad, it is all about local authorities and neighbours then. I can assure you that they are fussy here, let s say one needs to lockdown the aera before considering replacing a single Fibro ciment plate.
As usual Carl you make it look easy! I am changing the rafters ( after supporting the roof of course ) internally as the roof can't be stripped, too much rain in Ireland! Did you just use muck to make up the gap in the second beam and did you put a couple of tiles in with it? Look forward to the next episode mate :)
Hey Addison, you should put a video together - would like to see what you're up against! Yes just normal mortar with some thick floor tiles. normally we'd just concrete a pad, but unfortunately there wasn't enough space next to that beam to pour in.
Burying those beam ends in concrete just doesn't seem right. A gap of at least 5 mm would prevent moisture wicking in. Even 2 thicknesses of roofing felt would be enough
The sheets are asbestos - I have performed the same task. The dust being admitted when each sheet is removed is probably full of this dangerous material. For future similar jobs, I would advise PP3 masks and protective disposable clothing. Treat this material with respect.
What are the old roofing sheets made from? They look like they have asbestos in them. They don't look like corrugated iron. Difficult to tell from the video. If they are the former what are rules in France for dealing with them?
There were definitely some asbestos in there, hence the gloves and mask! We took them to the local recycling centre, but I'm not sure what they then do with them.
The main old ones looks nice. Brilliant and brave work.
My goodness 😱😱,,, this estate is REALLY a Castle. 🥰🥰🥰
When did you lay the cement blocks, a previous video? Has it been posted? Very impressive procedure and workmanship
unfortunately i wasn't out there for that bit, i'll try and do a similar video at some point. thanks for the comment!
응원 합니다 열심히 해주세요 ~ !👏👏👏👍

Great video ,thanks
I think the old canopies of the roof were made of asbestos tiles.

I will be recording everything Carl although the rain might be an issue lol
It is sad you replaced all the beams. Handcrafted beams look much better than modern ones. They do not all seem to be in a bad shape.
Agreed - we would've loved to. Although the beams themselves looked sound, unfortunately all the mortises were rotten beyond repair
Good for another 100 years or more. Straight sawn timber will look much better that plastic/composite beams. We will all be gone by then.
Ultimately, the type, the shape and the craft endures, but the individual pieces get replaced.

Woooaaaww my Budy its full Cool your atractions
full Respekt Meeaan

You´re absolutely right. Unfortunately, he doesn´t use a proper fluid for the edges of the sheets.
What does “clean and level” mean?
The tegole vecchie mi sono sembrate of amianto?
ho pensato anche cosi io...la risposta e sotto ma penso che e piu complesso secondo me
Beautiful house. Looks medieval. Is the new roof made out of clay or concrete?
a mix of new clay tiles hidden underneath, and traditional hand made on top
I look it all your working videos
I flow your next workings
Where is the house? USA, France, Spain? Not EXACT area ... Just general area.
5:04 french numberplate (32 = Gers, southwest of France)
i think its French area

4:28 I heard that duck utter some foul language!

could you inform me of what drugs you use to enable you to work at such high speeds.
