I have watched lots of restoration videos, but this one is the only one in which the spirit of the home really comes through. I don't know the chateau's history, but I believe it was built for love and joy.
Does anyone else want an interview with Stan? He appears to have a varied and colorful background. So intriguing! Seems like he was an engineer, a teacher, a fabricator, a mechanic; he speaks several languages. Is there anything he can't do????? And how did you meet Sadie??????
Over a hundred years ago it was unthinkable that this well loved home was going to be in ruins one day! I am glad that you two have the vision and commitment to bring it back to life again.
Do you feel the M Mansion is now secure from the people who broke in before? I hope so! I love the tile floors you are uncovering. They will save you a lot of money. Have you gotten estimates for a new roof?
There was an earlier video in which Billy and Ryan responded when one of the security cameras was triggered. Turned out to be urban explorers but, yeah, the place is much more secure now.
Heart melt moment. Stan is talking to the young lad, Sadie is trying to sweep what she can around them, then without stopping his convo, starts helping Sadie with the sweeping. Stan is truly a gentleman, that shows great love and respect to his beautiful Sadie! ❤️
As a nurse who's seen lung conditions because of people doing renovation and not wearing masks, I'm so glad to see you doing that. There are so many microscopic particles that do not dissolve or able to be coughed out from the little cilia hairs in the lungs that get embedded and damage the fine lining of the lungs. Keep up being safe. Your lives matter because who would I watch then to make this chateau look beautiful?
At the end where Stan and camera showed us where all the wind noise was coming from, all I could think of was, “Well at least there’s air circulation!” All they need now is warmth, a water tight building, no rain or snow, paint, new plaster and then there will be no more mould!” A lot of work. Really enjoy the videos.
Am loving the sass and enthusiasm of Stan. We’re going to need a “getting to know you” episode like they did with Yannis. Am so excited for the renovation of this beautiful building!
Stan, you are a true Renaissance man! Am so enjoying the new channel. Am getting much vicarious pleasure watching. Would have loved to have taken on such a project 50 years ago but don't envy you all your labor. Best wishes Sadie and Stan.
I LOVE your Chateau !!! It has the most beautiful bones, I follow a few chateau blogs, but I have to say there is something about this one that is very special. I am so looking forward to following your journey of restoration of this beautiful building as you turn it back into a home. Thank you for taking on this project and sharing it with your viewers. ❤️🇨🇦
As a quilter, I am fascinated by floor tile designs. The floors you were uncovering today, in a quilt are called “Tumbling Block”. But as mentioned by others it is similar to M.C.Escher repeating pattern designs. Can’t wait to see what else you uncover!
One bite at a time and you sure have taken a big chunk out of this area in a few days. The floor tiles are just beautiful. It means every thing that you are so considerate of each other.
It is so satisfying watching all of the liter being taken away. With each bagful, the chateau is revealing itself, peeling back the layers, one scoop and bag at a time. From my point of view, I’m watching a gift being opened.
It's so hard to imagine that someone would just walk away and abandon such a stunningly beautiful Chateau. Not even caring about the lost history of the property. I can't imagine the stress you must feel by the end of the day after digging through all of that rubble and debris, and all the damage done by uncaring and useless human beings. So sad to watch sometimes. Glad to see people stepping up and taking on such a difficult challenge. Thank you.
I saw a DIYer fold a piece of cardboard into three sections and then slide into the bag, open it up and made it easy to fill the bag. Once filled they removed the cardboard and used it again in another bag. ❤❤❤
Even in her extreme need of care, she is such a beauty. The opening shot with the snow was ethereal. Oh Stan, that's not creepy. That's the old girl showing her sadness at being abandoned for so long. With every bit of work done, she becomes content and relieved. It's just her size that makes it hard to see.
Guys….Billy stated yesterday that he wouldn’t be posting a video because he was going to be in Mayan(spelling?). He said he will be filming in Stan’s workshop. Also stated that Stan is an engineer and a fabricator and is doing some work for Billy and Billy will be there filming at Stan’s workshop!!! Looking forward to seeing that!!
Wow - the creepy part did not disappoint 😬 The wind blowing like that, oh man... But every room getting clean makes it look less frightening, so well done on that!
Beautiful and very picturesque...but cold. I see why Stan wants to get all of the windows repaired.....keep the weather out! There are some lovely floors in the chateau. Once cleaned up...they will be beautiful. You guys are doing a great job!! Exciting.
I remember floppy discs!!! Also before computerization too over everything was written by hand, ink and carbon paper triple pages,,,, That floor is stunning. Lots of clean up today. Looks great. You’ve done quite a bit in a short amount of time. Love this beautiful building and it’s digging g a sound of relief that someone are taking care of her once again. ❤❤❤
Wow, that is some nasty breeze blowing through the old girl. So glad you are fixing her up. Your just in time for me after work. Thanks for having the vision.
Sadie and Stan, I love the flooring in the servants' quarters, it will look great when you are putting the finishing touches on it. I am loving watching the process of your journey saving this amazing property together and will watch all of your up and coming videos. Please keep the videos coming!
Great cleanup day, floors are going to be so beautiful. That upstairs corridor with wind blowing through and peeling wallpaper flapping is stuff horror movies are made of. Lol great video.Thanks
So glad to see you both wearing masks as in my 20s I was helping clear a old disused hospital here in the UK. As you can imagine there was allot of dusty rubble like this as we had to knock all plaster and floors through. I now have quite bad asthma which could of been from that job I don't know, but I was wearing one of those paper masks most of the time. P.S great videos
Just a suggestion, but if you use a sturdy bin to shovel the muck into, then dump it into the larger bin it might make things easier and quicker for you. Less struggling with the bag opening.
Sadie, you’ve been mucking out horse 🐴 stables for so long your in great shape for shovelling out the Mucky Mansion!! It’s exciting to watch the transformation! ❤
Wow, you are making fast progress and seeing instant results. Suggest tying or taping the stair rod to the banister so it doesn’t get lost or tossed by a volunteer along the way. Teaching makes total sense; chalk board usage,, penmanship, bullet list; informative and entertaining. ❄️☃️😂
I use to detrash houses and mobile homes and I used a couple of big garbage cans, also I had a shop mechanics stool that I would scoot along and picked up trash because my back is bad. Anyway so much fun.
And here in the States we can buy plastic inserts for bags that keep the bags open and erect while being filled. Then the inserts are removed and reusable.
Hi Stan & Sadie, thank you so much for documenting your progress with this beautiful building, I look forward to a new video each day and can't wait to see your progress over time, I'm in Australia so we don't have big chateaus here, all the best Yvette xx
It is so satisfying watching all of the liter being taken away. With each bagful, the chateau is revealing itself, peeling back the layers, one scoop and bag at a time. From my point of view, I’m watching a gift being opened. Ps… sav a piece/strip of the wall paper in each Rome moving forward. It is the history of the chateau,
Just cleaning it up makes such a big difference in this place. Your dedication to the project is going to make this house a home. People have really tried to ruin and demolish this Chateau but did not succeed in doing so. Stay warm and have a great day
You can almost hear the chateau saying "thankyou" with every bag of rubbish removed from it .and that floor!! Beautiful
I have watched lots of restoration videos, but this one is the only one in which the spirit of the home really comes through. I don't know the chateau's history, but I believe it was built for love and joy.
I love the block pattern flooring
Does anyone else want an interview with Stan? He appears to have a varied and colorful background. So intriguing! Seems like he was an engineer, a teacher, a fabricator, a mechanic; he speaks several languages. Is there anything he can't do????? And how did you meet Sadie??????
Beautiful…happy your taking care of this place

I love all of the beautiful floor tiles in the mansion ❤
I’m with you they spectacular 😊
Me too they’re gorgeous hope they can be saved
Yes, they look beautiful, can't wait to see them vacuumed and mopped, to see what repairs they might need.
Beautiful season, what a shot. At 70 years old, why is it so interesting 🧐 watching 2 young people in a different country sweep 🧹 a Chateau? 😂❤
I'm 75 and I'm right there with you. 😊
I am 77 and obsessed with this channel obsessed 🤩🤩
81 and me too !
I’m 72 and tell my husband of all the “work” I do restoring chateaus on RUclips! 🤣
I;m 68 and from B.C Canada and I love watching.
Heart melt moment. Stan is talking to the young lad, Sadie is trying to sweep what she can around them, then without stopping his convo, starts helping Sadie with the sweeping. Stan is truly a gentleman, that shows great love and respect to his beautiful Sadie! ❤️
Yes u can see the love and respect they have for each other. A match made in heaven.
@@mhale-mi9iy🤞
That floor is really pretty. I hope you can save it.
That floor is really pretty. I hope you can save it.
Finally, Mr.Right
Oh boy Sadie, you can dress him up but....what a character. He's so upbeat and positive. You are a great match. 🇨🇦

This❤
The Chateau looks so beautiful in the snow. ❤❤
I agree, I also thought the floor pattern was very nice once they got the rubbish off of it. This place is just beautiful.
With Stan's hard work and clear determination this place has a chance for rebirth.
Stan is very knowledgeable in alot of areas.
I love Stan’s willingness to pull things of interest out of the rubbish. You are both amazing.
THE HALLWAY FLOOR IS BEAUTIFUL
At the end where Stan and camera showed us where all the wind noise was coming from, all I could think of was, “Well at least there’s air circulation!” All they need now is warmth, a water tight building, no rain or snow, paint, new plaster and then there will be no more mould!” A lot of work. Really enjoy the videos.
I’m happy to see your subscriber numbers going up quickly! It’s fun being in on this from the beginning.
Totally agree!
Am loving the sass and enthusiasm of Stan. We’re going to need a “getting to know you” episode like they did with Yannis. Am so excited for the renovation of this beautiful building!
Love Stan,s sense of humour and also his desire for learning the history of De Pannard.This is going to be a fun time
The poor battered chateau looked beautiful in the snow. It will gradually regain its beauty with all the attention it’s receiving.
Stan, you are a true Renaissance man! Am so enjoying the new channel. Am getting much vicarious pleasure watching. Would have loved to have taken on such a project 50 years ago but don't envy you all your labor. Best wishes Sadie and Stan.
Yes, Sadie and Stan make a great combination. The chemistry is great and they bring out the best in each other. Great channel guys!
Yes Stan is a man of many talents.
It’s amazing how much of an improvement just cleaning the floor makes.
Just what we say at home too 😂
I think I would have enjoyed Stan as a teacher. Not just math but he is interested and shares so many things. Never boring!
This is going to be a beautiful château when it is finished.
Love the new renovation. What will happen to Sadie’s apartment in the convent?
This place is going to take years before it’s habitable, they’ll be in the Convent apartment before long
So much junk!!!!
Stan is a gem, funny and cultured.
I LOVE your Chateau !!! It has the most beautiful bones, I follow a few chateau blogs, but I have to say there is something about this one that is very special. I am so looking forward to following your journey of restoration of this beautiful building as you turn it back into a home.

As a quilter, I am fascinated by floor tile designs. The floors you were uncovering today, in a quilt are called “Tumbling Block”. But as mentioned by others it is similar to M.C.Escher repeating pattern designs. Can’t wait to see what else you uncover!
Exactly what I thought Mary.....I think a lot of those floor tile designs would make super original quilt blocks....😊
Peel a large piece of each f the wallpapers now so you don’t forget to have them
I was getting excited by the same thing. I was looking for quilt patterns in the tiles.😊
Me too. Lovely to see the tumbling block on the floor. I do hope it can be cleaned and preserved.
I'm a quilter also. That was the first thing i noticed. It's a beautiful pattern and will look amazing when the room all comes together.
I see that Winter has voted 'You'll be inside today.' It's very sad to see these beautiful places turned into a dumpster. Big hearts to the rescue.
Stan I’ve joined your fan club. It didn’t take long. Welcome to the Pethrick’s. Rooting for you all.
Inch by inch, winning is a cinch! Thank you for sharing your renovation of the Chateau.
One bite at a time and you sure have taken a big chunk out of this area in a few days. The floor tiles are just beautiful. It means every thing that you are so considerate of each other.
A little tip for you Sadie snd Stan. Before sweeping all the dust, sprinkle water over the floor. The dust will not fly around. Xx
It is so satisfying watching all of the liter being taken away. With each bagful, the chateau is revealing itself, peeling back the layers, one scoop and bag at a time.
From my point of view, I’m watching a gift being opened.
That floor is amazing . So happy to see this estate brought back to life. 😃
Can't wait to see the floors after they are initially washed! ♥
It's so hard to imagine that someone would just walk away and abandon such a stunningly beautiful Chateau. Not even caring about the lost history of the property. I can't imagine the stress you must feel by the end of the day after digging through all of that rubble and debris, and all the damage done by uncaring and useless human beings. So sad to watch sometimes. Glad to see people stepping up and taking on such a difficult challenge. Thank you.
Oh, the breathtaking difference when Stan rolled back that rug. The floor is lovely. ❤
I saw a DIYer fold a piece of cardboard into three sections and then slide into the bag, open it up and made it easy to fill the bag. Once filled they removed the cardboard and used it again in another bag. ❤❤❤
Even in her extreme need of care, she is such a beauty. The opening shot with the snow was ethereal. Oh Stan, that's not creepy.

It’s great to see you two together, working away and enjoying each other. I’m happy to see the jump in your subscribers every day. 💕🇨🇦
uploaded your video before your brother today!!! Nice
Maybe Stan and Sadie should have yelled first 😂
no, but instead of her brother 😁
Billy hasn’t uploaded today, I haven’t seen anything. I keep searching.
Guys….Billy stated yesterday that he wouldn’t be posting a video because he was going to be in Mayan(spelling?). He said he will be filming in Stan’s workshop. Also stated that Stan is an engineer and a fabricator and is doing some work for Billy and Billy will be there filming at Stan’s workshop!!! Looking forward to seeing that!!
He said yesterday that there would be no video today because he was going to be helping Sadie & Stan. Who do you think is videoing?!
Sadie! YOU ARE BLESSED! Stan is a rare man today.
Wow - the creepy part did not disappoint 😬 The wind blowing like that, oh man... But every room getting clean makes it look less frightening, so well done on that!
Your numbers are going up. Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉. The wall paper is awesome. Stay safe
You and Stan have a great deal of work to do, but in the end, you’ll have a true gem of a home! Exciting!
That wind blowing through the room was creepy indeed. It’s mucky but you’re getting somewhere! Good job guys and thanks.
The roof is a priority I would think.. what is the state of that massive roof?
I agree! The roof and windows should be first priority. Has to be water tight or else, what is the point.
it is so satisfying cleaning a dirty area. That why i enjoy watching.
If you slight mist the floor with water it will keep the dust down. 😅😅😅
So glade I’m watching at the start of the restoration!!
The snow makes it look magical ✨. You keep revealing beautiful tiles with every floor clean. 💕🙏
Your Pup looks like a little Fox running through the snowy landscape.
Wow. I love the floor at the bottom of the stairs. Such a cool optical illusion and lovely color. 😍
It is such a shame that people have to destroy . Nice job cleaning.
I really admire your courage and dedication in committing to save a venerable and beautiful chateau with winter weather swirling around you. Bravo!
Beautiful and very picturesque...but cold. I see why Stan wants to get all of the windows repaired.....keep the weather out! There are some lovely floors in the chateau. Once cleaned up...they will be beautiful. You guys are doing a great job!! Exciting.
In the meantime though they should cover with plastic to keep moisture out.
It’s so lovely that you saving a beautiful chateau
The floors are incredibly beautiful ❤
Glad to see you two KIDS protecting YOURSELVES with dusk masks and gloves. Good job at clean-up the accesses to the second floor.
I remember floppy discs!!! Also before computerization too over everything was written by hand, ink and carbon paper triple pages,,,,
That floor is stunning.
Lots of clean up today. Looks great. You’ve done quite a bit in a short amount of time.
Love this beautiful building and it’s digging g a sound of relief that someone are taking care of her once again. ❤❤❤
Such beautiful cubist floor tile!
The snow made the chateau look beautiful. And that floor in the hall was amazing. Hope it can be saved.
Your chateau has some of the most lovely floor tiles I've seen, I sure hope they are mostly salvageable.
Cheers!
Wow, that is some nasty breeze blowing through the old girl. So glad you are fixing her up. Your just in time for me after work. Thanks for having the vision.
That floor reminded me of M C Escher artwork. I became fascinated with his work at school many years ago and have loved his work ever since
😊😊😊❤❤❤😊😊😊
I am so enjoying your videos. The chateau is definitely happier now.
Don't give up on her.
Sadie and Stan, I love the flooring in the servants' quarters, it will look great when you are putting the finishing touches on it. I am loving watching the process of your journey saving this amazing property together and will watch all of your up and coming videos. Please keep the videos coming!
Stan the man always impressing ! Add math teacher to the list !
The box in the servants hall for putting down and picking up boxes ,veg from the garden and cleaning outside boots.
Great cleanup day, floors are going to be so beautiful. That upstairs corridor with wind blowing through and peeling wallpaper flapping is stuff horror movies are made of. Lol great video.Thanks
Great progress! Yeah that hallway is definitely creepy!!!! Those floors are amazing! I can't wait to see the chapel!!
Sadie, you have done well! Stan is a big man, AND considerate of you and others!
So glad to see you both wearing masks as in my 20s I was helping clear a old disused hospital here in the UK. As you can imagine there was allot of dusty rubble like this as we had to knock all plaster and floors through. I now have quite bad asthma which could of been from that job I don't know, but I was wearing one of those paper masks most of the time. P.S great videos
What beautiful floors..when they are cleaned they will be stunning...
❄️❄️❄️🌨️🌨️🌨️❄️❄️❄️ Happy clearing my friends. Power to you both!
Just a suggestion, but if you use a sturdy bin to shovel the muck into, then dump it into the larger bin it might make things easier and quicker for you. Less struggling with the bag opening.
I just got my first snow this morning too! I’m in Midwest Michigan .
I'm from Michigan to garden City
@ nice! It was gone by noon, but it was there this morning lol
The floors we have seen so far are just beautiful. 😊🏴
The floor looks amazing. Looking forward to seeing it after it has had a good scrub.
The MC Escher floor is gorgeous.
More accordian, love that guy!
I thought the same thing. Love Escher.
Yes to both ❤😊
Sadie, you’ve been mucking out horse 🐴 stables for so long your in great shape for shovelling out the Mucky Mansion!! It’s exciting to watch the transformation! ❤
The Chateau is gorgeous. It's going to be beautiful. Blessings!! 💞💞
WOW that floor is simply amazing. You are so lucky to have it. Prayers and Hugs!
The floors in there are beautiful! And the opening views of the snow covered trees!😊
Wow, you are making fast progress and seeing instant results. Suggest tying or taping the stair rod to the banister so it doesn’t get lost or tossed by a volunteer along the way. Teaching makes total sense; chalk board usage,, penmanship, bullet list; informative and entertaining. ❄️☃️😂
You guys won’t be running out of work anytime soon.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I use to detrash houses and mobile homes and I used a couple of big garbage cans, also I had a shop mechanics stool that I would scoot along and picked up trash because my back is bad. Anyway so much fun.
And here in the States we can buy plastic inserts for bags that keep the bags open and erect while being filled. Then the inserts are removed and reusable.
The floor is gorgeous...in quilting we call it tumbling blocks...perfect space for a loo under the staircase...keep up the great work!♡
Excellent! Daily videos and that they come out at the same time. Looking forward to seeing new and unexplored things and areas.
I just love the floor that looks like stacked blocks.
Hi Stan & Sadie, thank you so much for documenting your progress with this beautiful building, I look forward to a new video each day and can't wait to see your progress over time, I'm in Australia so we don't have big chateaus here, all the best Yvette xx
This is truly a labor of love! Stan's humor cracks me up!
Amazing floor tiling, it should clean up nicely. Great job in obviously cold conditions.
First snow so magical.. Stay warm.
Stan’s jokes are the funniest! 😂😂 The snow is so beautiful. ❤
That floor is amazing! Please give us the story of how/why you decided to undertake this HUGE project!
I cannot understand why some people would cause so much damage to a property. You are doing a good job clearing the muck away.
Wow, what a difference, just to walk in and see the beautiful floor and staircase. Well done 😊
It is so satisfying watching all of the liter being taken away. With each bagful, the chateau is revealing itself, peeling back the layers, one scoop and bag at a time.
From my point of view, I’m watching a gift being opened.
Ps… sav a piece/strip of the wall paper in each Rome moving forward. It is the history of the chateau,
Just cleaning it up makes such a big difference in this place. Your dedication to the project is going to make this house a home. People have really tried to ruin and demolish this Chateau but did not succeed in doing so. Stay warm and have a great day
That geometric floor is so cool
The mansion is beautiful already but, Imagine how beautiful it will be in the snow when it’s completely done. Keep up the great job!!
It's so beautiful in the snow!!! If I lived in France I'd layer myself up and help you clean! ❤
How beautiful. I miss the snow so much. Hoping to get to visit back home in Canada this winter. ❤️❤️🥰🥰
