Roof Emergency - Fixing a Leak at Our Italian Farmhouse - DIY abandoned House Renovation Italy

- Опубликовано: 11 сен 2024
- In this mid-week mini episode we discover a BIG problem at our Italian farmhouse renovation project after 5 months away. Finding a leak it never a good thing, but when you're in the middle of a two week rainy period, it's really bad. Watch us spring into action and attempt to fix the roof ourselves, it's a steep learning curve but with little budget remaining for this farmhouse restoration we had no choice but to tackle it ourselves.
Thanks for watching!

Our Story:
We sold our apartment in Stockholm, packed up the car and headed for Piemonte. After a couple of months searching for the right house we came across Our Italian Dream House and immediately made an offer. Four weeks later (just three days before Christmas 2021) we signed the contract and had the keys.
It's now early 2024 and we have been renovating this epic house for two years now. We are mortgage free and have a very limited budget so we take on as much of the renovation ourselves as possible - follow us on our journey as we turn an abandoned Italian farmhouse into our dream home.

Welcome back!! Loved the views and you guys are doing a super job as usual!!
Thank you Christine 🥰
Good to see Ernie supervising
He is a very professional supervisor. We should have had him supervising our workers 😂
i will get to have similar fun this spring. So glad you are skilled at heights. These tile roof systems are amazing to me. We have systems that are sealed in the states. I am eager to learn more about them. Thank you for the lesson.
Haha, forza Mickey. You can do it 🙏
that view! 👀
I KNOW! One of the biggest selling points when we got this house. 🥰
I’m new here and I was wondering why you don’t have more views.
Your editing is good, you both are sympathetic and interesting, your house a germ.
I watched around 12 videos from the beginning to the end and here are a few of my thoughts:
You start a project but often we don’t see the end result. Like the self made door.
Almost finished but we never saw it.
Same today with the roof. I was excited to see the result but we didn’t see it, also the garden.
I get it, it’s not finished but a short outlook what happened next would help.
A lot of viewer like to bond with the people they are watching regularly.
That doesn’t mean we need to know the really privat stuff but a little bit more information would help.
Like, what you are doing work wise.
Do you have a second home in France?
I love the little breaks when you are going for a walk with the dog or seeing your amazing food.
It just helps to get a connection to you.
I like your videos, I don’t want to sound negative just my impression after watching a few videos
Thank you so much for your very kind and constructive comment. I (Emelie) can totally see your point, and I understand why it sometimes gets confusing. The truth is; we’re (ehrrm
mostly Edward) experts on starting projects, almost finish them and move on to the next thing 😂 and since we’re doing 100 things simultaneously to save time and money most things still have a few details left to be considered done and perfect so we get conscious about showing them. Hopefully we’ll be able to wrap more things up now since we are actually finishing the house. And we promise you show you the progress and end result 😊 again, thank you for taking the time to write this down for us.
Keep your spirits up: I think everyone pays “professionals” to do jobs & then are disappointed. You have achieved loads. Nice to see you both back. & please just say : what a shit job or hey something went well today.
Thank you Karen. And it feels good to hear it’s not just us 😂 sometimes we feel that we’ve really been fooled.
Tur i oturen som ni sade men tråkigt när det händer. Men vi fick se den vackra utsikten. Heja er som aldrig tappar modet❤️❤️
Som ett brev på posten!
@@OurItalianDreamHouse 🤩
Please keep being yourself and keep doing it, I enjoy listening to you and look forward to hearing about whatever you want to talk about.😊
Thank you so much Marc 😍
The weather has been terribly wet hasn't it? I hope I don't get back to find leaks as well. Our roof is very new, so hopefully not! Great job guys! Marisa 🥰🤗😘
Thank you so much Marisa. Last years 40 degrees and sun feels pretty tempting right now 😂🫶
@@OurItalianDreamHouse lol 😂 I know what you mean! I prefer dry to wet! Our outside walls are growing moss!!! 😂 you’re welcome 💋💋💋
Yes enjoyed it very much thanks. Great job on the tiles. Hopefully all will be nice and dry inside now 👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you so much Barbara. Haha we keep our fingers crossed but it looks like we'll have another wet couple of days ahead of us.
The safety system is very professional!! 😁😁😁
Hahaha giusto? I did offer Edward to wear a ski helmet too but he declined 😂
Great Job
Thanks Maxine! 🫶
Good job figuring that out! Stay safe and dry!
Thank you Gloria!
I got vertigo watching 😂
HAHAHA right?!
I did as well. I thought it was bad until I saw him teetering on the top of that mast. Holy moly! 😵💫
great job! It was such a treat to get a mid-week update. Thank you
Thanks Rod! And happy you like the new bonus episode format 😊 we’ll try to update twice weekly from now on (if we have anything interesting to show haha).
I live close to Asti and I had to do the same. It’s all part of good fun. Piedmont houses are not really waterproof.
Haha and it’s crazy that they are not. We were discussing that the other day actually. Being from two very wet countries where you weather proof your homes like crazy. It’s strange that the houses here are not built to resist more humidity, considering we have a few months of winter and back in the days they used to get a lot of snow.
😂 I was about to comment that your rope didn't look safe 😟... and you show a photo of you at a gazillion feet up, and clearly an expert at height safety 😂🤭
Hahahaha 😂🙏🫶
♥️😊🇧🇪
