Great tip

Making shims or shakes is a dangerous process. I make them both with a fixture that clamps the work piece and ensures my figures are as far away from the blade as they can be. I always use a sharp blade and take my time and never hurry in letting the blade do its job.

Not twisting wires together

U did the trick. I have watched several other videos and got confused. Thank you

Just purchased my first Travel Trailer and plan on applying this product myself. Incredible video, super helpful.

Do you know of any products that kill mold on soft wood? Most mold remediation is for every other surface but doesn’t penetrate wood

Just saw your comment about the sump pump, so that would explain the trench / French drain. Thks

Fantastic video Thank you. Did you guys dig what looks like a trench around the foundation? And fill in with stone aggregate? If so wondering why? This is awesome

Fantastic video!! We have a 1500 electric freestanding fireplace in a cabinet that we got from Lowes. Nice unit, however we notice that when the heating element comes on, the lights flicker all through the house. What would be the best solution? Also, anxious to see what it does to our electric bill.

Why would you start at the bottom instead of at the higher elevation of the crawl space?

Thanks for posting, this is very helpful!

Could have done it wayy cleaner jump off each box into the next

Very nice!! Looks easy.

If you're in Southern Ontario, call The Crawl Space Professionals

I'm so jealous. My crawl space is 18" if I'm lucky.. I have to pull myself along on my with only room to roll over at certain places. Nice job.

Model number PLEASE!

How much to do my roof? LOL

What do I do when long rods don’t go thru door knob hole

Best video I’ve seen so far on this!! I might actually have the confidence to tackle this myself now!

So Easy, thanks

What size drill bit did Chris use for the hole he drilled?

It doesn't work, it's break right off without putting any weight on it. What a stupid design.

Thank you!

@youcandoit2 where do you get your 10 mil poly? I'm seeing a huge range of options online as far as price goes, but none mention a permeation rating. I'm skeptical to spend 800 on poly for an 1800 sq ft house just to find out moisture gets through

Thank you for the video! And how to close the door? I know some keypad just hit the enter button and the door will close but mine is the same as your, it doesn't come with enter button.

This is exactly what I need because I don’t want to break my wall and cabinets , the chain part is very smart 👍 Thank you for your video!

8:48 Now let's give those HVAC ducts some decent support...

Great instruction!

Thank you! For installing this for my mom... it works great!! I think this video will help me do it myself next time!! ALways love your videos...such great info!

Great video. Thanks. I've been watching tons of these and this has to be the best most detailed vid I've seen. Your crawlspace is almost the same size and shape as mine. 1500sqft and a long rectangular ranch. I have far less headspace and literally have to crawl or bear crawl through mine. I will take my time and do this step by step like you've shown, starting with debris and rocks. I then have to figure out how I am going to insulate/ seal this space from my floor above. Thanks again.

Excellent review. Thank you!

Great idea! I love your videos, please keep going and soon you'll have a million subscribers like some others I watch.

Very creative and I like that you're reusing old wood and repurposing it! Great job!

How deep are the LED light fixtures? I noticed your first insulation support came through the ceiling right next to a ceiling framing member. Did you have to move the light location further away?

That's not a good install at all.

What a fantastic demonstration, thank you for the extra tips along the way! Happy travels

What a fantastic job. We could definitely see the change in color in your video. It does look like a lot of hard work but doing it yourself…you know how good of a job you are doing compared to taking it to an RV dealer and having a sloppy job. We appreciate the details in explaining each step. The warranty for 10 years is an added bonus. I really don’t think our RV dealership could match that! Thank you!

What's the small silver round piece for?

If I may: It was a good job. The only thing I would have changed is measuring from the male side of the first straight pipe to be cut. The first cut should have been from there crimped/tapered end resulting in a pipe with a male and female end. Start connecting the female end into the floor connection. Next, the opposite end, a male, going into the female end of the elbow. keeping the rest of the connections male into female until the very end where the last piece would be two female ends. 🤔

Great video. On a job that had a big slope what would you recommend? Pouring a really tall footer or maybe putting a post “ leg” on top of the jack? I ask since the jack has only 4 inch adjustable range but I have 28” to grade in one of my corners…

Toilets have overflowed and water is pouring into my floor vents which made a waterfall into my basement from ceiling. Anyway to prevent this? Is it possible to move floor vents to wall vents?

That's a lot of bends and overall run length. Looks good but not a recommended install for efficiency or safety. Plus, cleaning that would be very difficult without taking some pieces apart. Dryers are notorious for starting fires so it's important to make that as easy as possible.

I applaud you taking this on. I do this for a living and it's not easy to do at all. A couple of things stand out though. All of this is under ICC R408.3 and yes, permits are generally required but your local gov't might not require it. The vapor barrier is fine for the task but one of the other ways to ensure the barrier lasts is to install a dimpled drain mat under it. It will -drastically- increase the durability. Second, the vapor barrier should be overlapped 6 inches and the barrier can be installed, depending upon the local building code, between 1-2 inches from the TOP of the foundation wall for the termite reveal. Also, the rim joist is a critical point for air infiltration as well as any vents. The rim joist needs to be air sealed with foam board or closed cell foam, ~2 inches for R13. it's also a really good idea to add foam board to the hatch door. The best way to secure the barrier to CMU walls is with butyl tape on the masonry and bond the barrier to it. It holds much better and even pinning it with xmas tree fasteners guarantees it will not move. If you are in an area that experiences really cold weather the code also allows you to use partial conditioning to bring the delta between the living space and crawl space much closer together. It's typically 50 CFM but for a space that size at least 100 CFM. 2 medium sized supply vents should do the trick and it HAS to communicate back to the return so a return vent has to be installed. FYI, that dehumidifier is grossly undersized. The 55 is rated at 53 Pints (80°F, 60%RH). The stated capacity on their brochure is 112/day at saturation, 90% RH which is a misnomer. The COP rating, a measure of using electricity to move heat is 2.27 L/KwH which is a tad low. 3.5 to 4+ is much better. I have extensive experience with this line, which is made by Seaira Global and other brands are manufactured under that company. It's placement is less than ideal for a space that size and it needs a duct kit to move air around the space. The minimum standard is 70 pints/day per 1000 sq/ft. So, you have to calculate the amount of capacity you need for 1429 sq/ft. Take 1000/70 which equals: 14.2857 which is our constant. Take 1421, the total square footage of the space: 1421/14.2857 which equals 99.470 pints per day. A 100 pint/day dehumidifier technically meets that requirement but it has to work harder. In effect you'd need two of those to properly dehumidify the space. Not a bad job at all but there are some obvious issues that should be addressed. Hence, this is why the pro's charge what they charge. Please feel free to respond back here if you need any additional tips or advice.

Greatest video thanks you guys very nice job 👍

Now if you check YT, you can find just as many videos of Redgard failures as Schluter. So, nothing is conclusive anymore. Hard to know what to use these days. Redgard is definitely easier to apply, and much less expensive. One doesn't have to deal with layer built up in the corners like you do with a fabric membrane -- though as others have posted, you are supposed to tape your seams.

Put a heat gun on it next time nice job brother! but it won't be a next time lol pic or azek!!!!!

I feel like roll on is the safest way, just paint it on, its to much room for error with kerdi, you can really mess up unless you messed up b4 you redguarded

Great build! I’m looking at doing something similar on my back covered patio.

I got one of these and never use it cause i forgot i have it. Circular saw, then jigsaw or hand saws or hacksaw or reciprocating saw or my knee, i can never remember this tool 😒
