We know your not complaining, but just showing your journey thru cleaning up after the storm. Not spreading rumors or making content to make yourselves heros or making money off other peoples misfortunes. Bless you.
You mean like the Rhodes have been doing.
Love how you and Lorraine are a team. Here’s hoping the mold will be an easy fix.
I was one of the ones who was going to comment about sump pumps lol worth the investment IMO ESP if you want to finish the basement. Also before you re-drywall everything you could give it all a coat of kilz. They make stuff that has some kind of chemical that kills mildew and stuff! might be worth a look into!
I so respect how you do not try to sensationalize what is happening! I'm sorry about the mold issues but glad y'all are aware. Also happy you are safe. Blessings.
Now to watch the rest of the video
NC coast here, plenty of black mold here, especially after hurricanes. Bleach doesn't kill black mold, but vinegar does!!!😊 So sorry for your troubles!!!🙏
You are absolutely right! Bleach removes the color only. White vinegar destroys the mold down to the roots. I hope people listen.
Gutting houses is one of the important assistance that Samaritan's Purse have provided very quickly! So sorry you're having to deal with that mess!
While FEMA IS BUILDING A CAMP THEY SAY TO BRING IN 700 fema TO
Help rescue people. They first need to make a place for Fema folks.
While N.C. needed help first. They have heavy gunned security guards.
I put raised beds in my hoop house and it makes a world of difference on keeping grass and weeds out.
You have a good attitude about another big job (even if others have more damage) that's expense and work and time. Glad you are careful about mold and keeping your house healthy.
I'm a surviver of Irene. Same like you I had about 2 -3 inches on two ground floor apartments. I had to cut out 12 -18 " of sheetrock out ALL the way around, took all the trim off, all the bottom cabinets and vanities out and replaced. If it got wet at all it molded, you must remove it because it is almost impossible to kill. I was professionally dried out and sprayed and I had to do the other stuff myself. We bucket bregaded the mud out of the dirt floor basement. ripped out all the hot air duct because the brand new furnace was destroyed and river water ran thru the duct. . $25,000 and a year later I was back up and running but I knew that there would be no mold for my tenants. However my house was not washed down the river so I was lucky and thankful. And no FEMA did not one thing for me but deliver a case of bottled water. Period.
❤
mold is DEF all along the water line even if you can't see it from the outside....
OPEN IT NOW AND REMOVE!!!!
Moldy water bottles? Thank GOD you knew how to fix it.
I'm so sorry you went throw all this mold issue.🙏🙏🙏
Ok jason we had a similar problem any where there was water on the dry wall it will have to be removed at least 6 inches above the floor put fan in there and dehumidifier let that run until the stud wall is dry or get a moisture tester and it should not show moisture. Once it's dry rehang drywall plaster and. paint
Hi, Jason and Lorraine! I am so sorry about your mold issues.
Our basement has flooded twice. We had to remove most of the dry wall 6 inches up from the floor in any room the dry wall got wet. We had a company come in and they ran huge dehumidifiers for 5 days and used moisture meters to check to be sure it dried out. It took about 8 days for the meter to read the correct level.
Work is never done. You do a fabulous job with everything you do. Love your channel. ❤️😁🌹
For insulation I would recommend rock wool/mineral wool since it is mold resistant.
I know this doesn't compare to what any of you guys in NC or FL went through, but when my water heater gave up the ghost and kept trying to refill itself and flooded my home I got a little paranoid and put everything in my spare room (storage) on furniture dolly's and 2x4's laid flat (nothing on the floor) to just give a little extra space for the water to go if it ever happens again, please God NO!!! The dolly's worked out well because now things are portable and I can load and unload that room as needed. I'm an artist so I have tons of tools and materials that I don't use all the time, but still want on hand. So, I store them in my spare room on dolly's for 'the next time'... Hang in there guys! I'm sure little and big things will show up around your homestead as things settle down and dry out, stay vigilant! Stay blessed!!!
Your channel is very enjoyable - love seeing Lorraine run her kitchen and Jason always cracks me up with his sayings "these jokesters" + acorn "MnM's"
Hi I'm from California. I just frond your channel. I really like what you and your wife are doingthank you for sharing
Frankly I am glad I no longer have a basement because of water issues.
I hope it’s not bad. Life goes on. God bless.
Great call on the wall with the mold , Jason!
It’s a big deal to have mold.
It can really effect your health. Don’t stop taking care of yourselves because of survivor’s guilt.
Love how you're using those pigs to prepare the land!
Thank you for keeping it real. You & Lorraine are so positive. It’s encouraging❤
Always, so much to do. But, we keep pressing on…..
The kitchen's still looking good!
Jason, you should remove all the molding and a few inches of drywall of any area that got wet. It is a lot of work but now is the time to do it before someone gets sick,
I would use a pump sprayer. Your poor hands are gonna' be toast trying to do the trigger sprayer. Jason, I would definitely be very liberal with that spray stuff; toxic mold is no joke, especially with your health hx. So, so glad ya'll fared better than so many others. The sadness for all in WNC is felt very heavily here in West Central Florida. My heart goes out to those with all the unmeasurable loss.
Sorry about the mold but like you said you guys were lucky you didnt loose your house...God bless
You might b growing volunteer oak trees, and my prayers for all of you that have suffered and catching the mold early will save you bigger problems if not found . It certainly makes me who lives in IL pause and listen to what the Lord wants us to listen to because the pandemic didn't work what I prayed .
In Michigan we have a sump pump and dehumidifier also.
Praying for your mold issue, hoping you get it resolved quickly.
How about raised beds in the high tunnel? Also it will save you from back trouble.
😂😂😂SUMP PUMP😂😂😅😢😢😢
growing up in Chicago in the 60's our basement had a sump pump... cannot tell you how many times our basement was a swimming pool...
Love your channel I hope your mold issues are resolved. ☀️❤️💯 WV
You have the prettiest pigs!!!!!! ❤️
When we had water in our basement, the remediation company went up 4 feet and replaced all that drywall and insulation.
Too late now, but if you cut straight lines it makes it a lot easier to patch.
Our office flooded. The company came in and used a water tester on the drywall. They took off the baseboard, poked holes into the dry way, and had fans blowing into those holes first thing. Can then mist a bleach into the holes if needed but checking for water is key to how far up the drywall it went.
Misting bleach won't help. Highly recommend Change The Air Foundation videos on mold remediation. They're a life saver!
Last year I made southern style hash browns and pre cooked them and then put them in ziplock bags and froze them flat. My husband really loved them
I have that book and use it frequently.
Finish basements are the worst carpeting furniture, the drywall . I saw one of my neighbors finished basement that got flooded after heavy snow storms , blizzards and the snow melted. This was in New England. I also had flooded basement but it wasn't finished it was concrete and we also had a sump pump it was only when the snow melted. It was easy cleanup and no mold.
We had so much snow melted that the sump pump couldn't keep up it happens up north .

Micro Balance has some really great natural products for mold. I've personally used them and liked them!
Soooo....We pay a pretty penny for landfill dump stuff in our area. And the Feds are supposedly taking care of Helene debris for 6 months. I would be so tempted to take my Helene related landfill materials to a Helene debris pile yet to be picked up. While I might be tempted to take additional landfill stuff along for the ride, I certainly would have no moral dilemma over taking Helene related materials.
Lorraine you can pre cook the french frys and then freeze them when you want some pop them in the oven for about 20 minutes or if you have a Microwave put them in for 5 minutes
I cubed, blanched and froze all my potatoes this year, still have sweet potatoes to do ❤
Dry underneath the house it comes from the ground get some air under the house vents in the wall we had big fans blowing
Thumbs up!! 👍🏼 Hope the mood is not too extensive. Tell the piggies adios for me. 😊 Bless y'all.
Have never had a basement, so I don't know all the ins and outs of preventing any water from getting into a basement. Friends who have a basement dug up the area all around the foundation and installed a water barrier under and up the foundation walls, as well as a French drain system to divert rainwater away from the foundation. But with massive flooding from Hurrican Helena I have not heard if those helped at all.
If these massive hurricanes with flooding become the norm it will be interesting to see what new products come on the market to help keep homes from flooding, as well as products to help prevent issues like mold.
It only takes 72 hours for black mold to grow. And fun fact water can only wick 16 inches thanks to gravity
Just because its black doesn't make it " black mold". Black mold is actually more rare than you think.
would using cement board or green board as replacement in the basement save you future hassles?
You have to go higher than what you see. You can also pour bleach on studs, with windows open, I would check all walls.
I only like to eat my canned potatoes in a stew or soup. The seasoned liquid helps mask the flavor of the potatoes.
Oh no, I hate mold and spider infests. They are just hard to get rid of. God bless!
Please be careful. Black mold is just not worth the health risks 🙏🙏🙏
Thanks
Dry Can potatos! My fav....Darn on the mold issues.. house ownership never ends !..
What precautions can to take to prevent water getting in the future?
Youwill prbably have to look at drainage around the building help move water away from the foundation
. I relize it a base ment but to help egress from the basement. Good luck
Good that you detected mold early.vital oxide is what the professional uses for mold
Will house insurance cover mold damage?
Try dry canning the potatoes. I found them very good. Lot more like fresh. Lot better than just canning them in water
This is a great year for a corns.
If this ever happens again, once you get most of the standing water out, use towels, blankets, whatever you have to soak up small areas of slight puddles. Then turn fans on, by generators or battery, and have more than one dehumidifier. There are also moisture absorbers you can get at Lowe’s or Home Depot to keep on hand just in case. I had to use those after forgetting to close my car windows and it poured at night. 😖
Renovation time!!
Stay strong in Messiah Yeshua! Everything that is happening all over the world was told to us before it happened in HIS word, the bible. HE is perfect and HE won!!! Just keep looking up, our redemption draws near, yeah! Love and Blessings to all.
My dad’s favorite saying was: Even a blind sow gets an acorn once in awhile.
Yep it’s a month away
Yikes, yet another challenge, MOLD! yuck. So what material would you replace the sheet rock? cement board? How about a french drain around that area? nothing like a disaster to give you clues on your gaps.
Jason be cautious feeding acorns to the pigs. If they only eat acorns the tannins in the acorns can effect the flavor of the meat.
Dealing with mold is no fun.
Some of the Amish have burned their homes to get rid of mold.
check where the toilet is just in case hugsssss
Where do you buy your garlic to plant?
Have you thought of dehydrating and/or freeze dring potatoes for mashed, soup , etc.
Lorraine... is there a way you could make a Base for potato soup where you could just add in the milk / broth in later, when it's time to eat it?
My comment was removed. It wasn't even controversial. No swear words. No vaccine talk. It had to do with mold.
Go to the top of the comments…
Touch “Newest”…
This is where YT hides comments.
When I read the comments,
I always go to “Newest”.
Well i don't think they removed it. Contact RUclips.
Happens all the time. The robot overlords that inspect the comments are very touchy
@4:25, 4:26 after pulling that piece off I spotted a bug crawling up the 2x4 at the bottom up
Check out living traditions they could perhaps give you ideas for your greenhouse set up loving your channel
love what you are doing with the kunekunes. Are you going to try jowl bacon?
Things happen such as hurricanes mold, and the wife wants to kitchen. You just do what your family thinks to be next
I understand Lorraine doesn't want to destroy the walls, but with mold, better safe than sorry. Happy pigs on Acorns 🐷🐖
Where is the leak coming from??!!
Are y'all going to add more floating shelves in the kitchen?
I would treat the room completely. The reason why mold is pores and hard to control .
I thought you were slowly remodeling one room at a time and that you were working on the kitchen (lol).
Lisa not Bob do u have insurance to pay for all this.
mold can start growing within 24hrs of an event with right conditions if the drying process wasent started soon after mold would not just be on the lower parts of the drywall it will be on ceilings and walls i recomment renting and hepa air scrubber and a hepa vaccum and and using a Disinfectant all surfaces
Do those UV lights advertised on TV and inter web work I wonder?
Rent a moister meter, it’s looks very much like a stud finder.
Where is the water coming into the home??? Could this be no power to a sump pump? Just wondering?
Black mold most certainly can kill you!!!!!!! You need to do the entire basement the same way you did the bathroom.
Eliminate the source of the water. If water doesn’t drain away the house it needs to be corrected. French drain running down the hill will work in case the power is out.
Raised beds are easier on your back and easier to weed.
😊
Can the potatoes be mashed etc after freezing
What are the spanish pigs thst eat the oak acorns that is like prosictto mmm good.
❤
Is a sump pump in your future?
Thank you for the laugh…I’m still giggling; maybe immature but sometimes a “deez nuts” placed in an artful way is just the thing we need
A sump pump and a French drain on the outside and good gutters. I had to use KILZ paint after spraying my walls with bleach.
I would tear all drywall out a foot or so up!! It’s in the walls!
Cute little bacon beans
