Love the video - I think stone homes are so beautiful
Very interesting video, well done. Thanks!👍
I loved your vol 2 on stone houses.
I hope you continue in the series. Love commentary on stone houses from an expert. 🙂
As or us... Maybe what I did for renovating our house would be not ideal on your list. But I tried my best.
Our stone house was already a mix of construction methods when we bought it. Some more "modern" than others (or as much as central European then under Communist control could be "modern" for the parts added in the 1980's). I tried to work with it all in that perspective considering each period of construction was itself a bit of history (but the asbestos roofing had to go). And it is a soil and stone house, so required plastered externally and internally else the rains would melt it away, so no view of the stones underneath. So when we removed the crumbling plaster to replaster we found some architectural surprises.
For example, when we removed the (I assume) original windows we found brick arches over the square windows. The old square (beyond repair) window frames were 30 cm thick and when we took them out a rain of dirt, rocks and ceramic shards fell down to revival bricked, arched openings. Since the construction was already brick, after much head scratching and cost estimates for wood arched windows (end result --- was not going to pay 1/6th the price of the entire house for custom windows), decided to do --- a beam above square wood windows, but then hide the beam behind a wood facade. So logic was -- original windows were square, so replacing with square was "traditional", but allowing to expose and showcase the arch was, I thought, would be a nice architectural touch. I am pleased with the results (I did a post about this at my blog, called "House Renovations - Episode 83: Window Chopping").
Thanks for watching and for taking the time to write this, I loved reading it! Renovating buildings that have been renovated previously (in uncertain conditions) is extremely difficult!! So I appreciate you for taking on this challenge! And it's not always possible or recommendable to keep all details, if the arch doesn't hold, I would not compromise structure for appearance. Your way of keeping the outside opening of the arch and introducing a masked beam with the window is a good alternative, and like you said, keeps the historical image. Good work! 💕🍀
very nice vids!! thanks
Great video!
Thanks for showing a way of assessing the constructions quality. It's actually really hard to get such kind of knowledge for people who didn't study anything construction related
I'm so happy for your comment, this is the whole purpose of what I want to share!! 🍀😍
Thank you! That was useful 💖
This was a great breakdown of what to look for, especially in stone-based construction!! Great job for real. It's a beautiful place, I wonder what the houses look like inside by design.
Thanks for the positive feedback, I really appreciate it! 💕
That rising damp looked a bit scary! 🤔
😢 My feelings exactly!

So sad when they don't use the arch
💯💯😢
Could you say the name of the towns where you saw the houses? Or maybe the general region is Spain. Good videos..
Thank you for the comment! and good question: the last excellent example is Alquezar, the rest of the examples are everywhere, there were good and bad examples in: Sahun, Benasque, Graus and the areas around these. 🍀
