- Here we are refurbishing the walls of an abandoned stone house in ruins.
First we removed the ivy that had taken over the walls. Some of it was more than 10 years old.
Then we started cleaning the walls with a pressure washer and finally filled the gaps of the ancient dry wall with mortar.
Also we took out the old rotten oak beams to make room for new ones.
Working at height is dangerous. Do not try this at home. Ask a professional to do it.

Thank you for not ruining your videos with music.
Wow. What's left of this ruin is pretty incredible. You can see how carefully the originally builder selected huge stones and fit small ones in the gaps, and how they all form a uniform vertical surface. Even with most of the mortar eroded, the roof collapsed, and ivy growing all over it, the remaining walls look pretty good. It must have been very fine work when it was originally built. Some incredibly large pieces are left for you to preserve, like those beautiful lintels over the door and window, and those lovely large uniform quoins on the corners. I can already see that this is going to be beautiful.
You name it Brendissimo, exactly what we thought too. Especially while working with stone ourselves we realized how much effort was put into these walls, doors and windows. All stones of each wall were treated by hand to give them this uniform surface. An arduous job, that shaped the stones we are now building on. Thanks for your comment.
Looking great. Look forward to the next episode.
This house is going to look beautiful when finished! I have thoroughly enjoyed watching these walls come back to life and can't wait to see your progress 👍🏽
Already waiting for the second part!
This video came up…..this is my new favorite channel, can’t wait to see more!
It’s going to be gorgeous when you’re done! I really hope you are using lime mortar between the stones because using cement will lead to major moisture and mold issues inside the house. Lime mortar lets the walls breathe and dry out after they get wet, cement traps moisture.
Thank you for your comment, and your suggestion with lime mortar. What you see in the video is cement mortar. We chose this because we are going to open windows in a wall and enlarge the lower floor, basically build a basement, while maintaining the walls. So we wanted to get the walls as stable as possible, before doing that. Nevertheless we only filled up the gaps until about 3-4 cm from the wall surface, leaving some room which we could fill up with a lime based mortar later.
Think of all the stories who would be could told what happen inside the walls 100 to 400 years ago depending of the lifetime of that house. When the walls could talk you could listen for so many years. All that happiness ans sadness which was living there. The hard and not so hard times. All these years make me thinking a lot over my self. I'm old and i think i will write down the stories of my life so that my kids and possible grand kids have an idea how life was before all the technic came to us, and there are a lot of stories...
those rectangular dressed stones are so beautifully done. This is going to be the most beautiful house.
I found your channel recently because of the water tanks videos and now I come across this, I can't wait for the next part! It would be good if you could tell what the next plans/work to be done are. Greetings from Argentina!
I can see this is going to be one interesting build and the guy doing it is no slouch…love it.👍🏼❤️
That’s impressive packing all that stone by hand, hopefully you’ll take us along for the journey
Just 3 videos and I'm already in love with this channel! Please keep going like this!
Estão de parabéns!!!
Adoro vídeo de restauração de casas antigas assim.
Maravilhoso.
Por favor, NÃO PAREM!!!
Желаю вам получить красивый и уютный дом в конце вмех ваших трудов!
What a great job you all have accomplished so far, well done and it looks amazing.😊😊😊
Amazing craftmanship in the stonework. It's a pity that walls need pointing 😉
I look forward to the process AND the result. Hard work, it is.
I love the river in the background.
Wow, so glad I found your channel, loving what you have done so far and I can’t wait to see more
Just seen your restriction on the water tank the steel clamp is a good 👍 idea. If it's not stainless steel it will rust and expand and split the stone. Putting plants in holes in the stone work will over time spilt it apart as well. But looks good 👍
Just found your channel, looking forward to seeing the progress, thanks for sharing...cheers
looking forward to see more ! Wish you all the best, cheers Chris.
Que valor tenéis, admiro vuestra tenacidad, gracias por los vídeos
Think I might have just found my new favourite TH-cam channel :-)

That red granite looks so pretty!
Hola, te escribo desde Galicia. Eres gallego?
Veo que estás reparando con mortero de cemento no? Que está bien.
Pero para encintar no es mejor usar mortero de cal hidráulica?
Pregunto eh, por lo demás excelente trabajo.
How Brave You Are Bravo
Impressive work, my respect for this challenge
What a great job 💯💯😊😊😊😊
fantastic great work,cant wait for more good luck❤
Beautiful walls
Very good works
Great job, love it!
Great project!
Awesome work - thanks for sharing!
Please Take more videos of the property and your plans to live there. Thanks !
Don’t envy you doing that pointing.🇨🇦
Really impressed by the amount of work you guys are doing here. Love the old stone walls. Am curious what you are using as a mortar for the stone walls?
I'm hoping to buy an old stone house here in Ireland to renovate soon, and considering the rain you have on your property, I'm wondering if things are similar. If I want to have breathable walls and traditional materials, I'll have to go with lime mortar. Or I could say screw that and go with cement and use modern materials to deal with any moisture issues.
Using new materials might make sense in the short term, but always remember that there was probably a reason for everything they did before we got electricity, and lime mortar and more traditional building methods will lead to a significantly better structure with air quality and natural temperature control
wow this channel is growing fast you deserve 100k subsribers
great house
非凡的勇气与壮举🎉
I find this captivating, maybe because of my Surname.
凄く良いです！
Ik zag deze video voorbij komen en nam een kijkje. Wat zijn jullie plannen na het schoonmaken van de stenen?
Ik ben blij dat jullie géén cement gebruiken,want dat is een fout die de meeste beginners maken met natuur stenen muren.
Nice! Are you going to build the roof higher than current? You have the space add 2 meters?
Hi @Melicoy yes this is a good idea. We want to make use of the space below the roof in the future for a small bedroom, so we will try to make it higher. Will still take a while until we get to the roof, but already looking forward to that part!
Is this house in a rainforest?
👍👍

Please explain more about this ruin. What is approximate age? Was it a farmhouse? A mill? Also, tell about the location.
Is this a double-faced wall? Or was there a single stack of stone? Why repoint? Were there problems with the structure of the original dry stone, or it's just to be safe? What a beautiful old structure that's certainly worth preserving.
Hi BookOfNick, Yes it is a double faced wall, here they call it a "wall of two brothers". No the dry stone would probably be stable however a lot of ants and mice live in there so we wanted to keep them out. Also when opening the windows it was necessary to stabilize the wall first.
What did you use? Clay or concrete?
Not quick i like to see the slow progress
🎉❤
Каждый сходит с ума но своему.
Упоротость и труд, всё перетрут😂
Go on, give us a clue. Where is this? Looks a lot like Portugal, but could equally be Italy. Or even somewhere else...
And what will be in this ruins?
Are you using lime or cement mortar?
What you see in the video is cement mortar.
🔥🔥🔥😊♥️🇧🇪
.....in quale paese vivete?🙄
🙏🙏🙏🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦❤️❤️❤️🇱🇸🇱🇸🇱🇸👌👌👌
What country are you in?
Hi Teresa, this is in northern Portugal
Sorting the walls that exist before doing any other building. Masterstroke. You will need commentary to connect with viewers to grow your channel.
Not really we can see what’s being done.
Respectfully love his content but the voice over would bring more people.
Pls increase number of episode, not payback speed
Thanks for your comment, as the works advance we will publish more episodes. Thanks to all of you who subscribed :)
You can tell you never done that work before make sure to show the building inspector that video you have all the dumb things you're doing😅😅😅😅
Very constructive criticism and advice. I hope you do better with kids or colleagues. Although I have to agree that they are not working very safe a lot of the time. Like cutting away the beams and not replacing them or supporting the walls to avoid collapse. Or the walking on loose and wobbling planks one story up.
