Dominic, that utube was fantastic! You explain things very well and your very good at what you do. May I ask how you become a General Contractor? I just have a curious mind. It seems like you have to know every trade, not just one. How many years to become a General contractor
LOL LOL, First you have to realize there are many levels of contractors and so-called contractors. And yes I do cover everything. Electrical has always been my go to. But so is framing. My father was a big builder so I kinda fell into it. But only years after he passed away. I have about 40 years into this.
@@Askmediy very good to know, I lived in the state of Utah and now I live in Illinois and I had not worked on a house as old as this, very good to see and learn more about renovation. Thank you and the video was very good and clear
What supports the header above the window? Must be on the Gable end. Inspectors like clean job sites They assume you do the same with your work. Thought you were doing underground Wiring what happened too The second video ha ha
This is the old house from 1840 I've been working on. This house is made from post and beam. The header is way way above the window. And yes I'm still doing the underground service work. Video coming super soon.
@@jstone1211maybe what? This is post and beam. The super beam is a few feet right above it. You may know how something is framed today, but not a clue how it was done before or anything to do with other types of framing.
@@DominickAmorosso the last time I had an inspection, the inspector did not take into account the old way of doing things. But if you are good with it, then what do I know. good luck in your project
@jstone1211 no no, this is a type of framing still used today but for barns stuff like that. A house this way would not be done just based on cost and not necessary. This house was just just totally renovated. Not a single header. And trust me, this inspector wouldn’t let it fly if it wasn’t good. You basically have post and beam, ballon framing and platform framing. All need headers except post and beam. A very large beam stretches from one end to the other. With big ass post about every 10 feet or so. The wall you see in this video is new, a replacement. But it’s really only to hold the Sheetrock and siding. Look it up and you’ll see

Thank you Medley. Blessings to you and yours.
What’s the closest an outlet be placed to the edge of a stovetop ?

Doesn't matter.
Hi, what state do you live in?
Is this 4x4 and why?
but very cool and showed how it's done
New York. This is a house built in 1840. Timber back than was very big. It's a 3x4 true in size.

First thing I see is the framing for the new window behind you. All wrong!
The first thing you should’ve noticed this is a 1840 house built with post and beam. So no, you’re wrong
@@Askmediy maybe but I frame to todays standards and methods. cant go wrong with proper headers etc...only takes a few extra minutes to do it right.
