    I love that if you’re handy you can make a show online that pays for you to have a better and better house just by doing the transformation on video. What a world we live in.

      and then you move to a new house when your current house is all fixed up, and further profit off your improvements

      Gotta be handy, have tools, have camera equipment, have a good camera presence/personality, editing skills, and a whole lot of time because filming and editing make the process longer. It's a lot of work and almost never happens as quick as you want - it is an awesome world with a lot of opportunity, but it takes a lot of hard work, money, and consistency.

      He cut out the bottom of the wall studs, didn't repair it, and just drywalled over it. Amateur hour.

      And is that wall load bearing? Is so, then you compromised the structural support of everything above it.

    Awesome book that gives you step-by-step photos th-cam.com/users/postUgkxTNB_zFBSnTo_O1PqfVUwgi7ityw0JlKt and directions to make every day project. I can see myself making a few of these projects and giving them as housewarming and holiday gifts!

    So, I love your projects and I've been inspired/ learned a lot from you. Our laundry room is much smaller, but I want to do some similar things in ours that you just did. I think it looks amazing! However, I have a question for you... If you need to do maintenance on the dryer/ washing machine, how do you access them with the counter built right on top of them?

    Greta vid, a little tip we do over her in the Uk when tiling a floor.
    Get a scrap bit of tile place it face down and cut the archs, door frame (we use a multi tool/oscillating tool). That way the tile will slide under and be a much nice finish :)

    It's nice but personally I kind of liked the white oak look you had in the cabinets before painting. It just gave you a nice but not drastic contrast instead of everything being completely white, but that's just me.

    • @lukecage5932
      @lukecage5932 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Same here. I used one on a DIY job a few years ago. When we sold the house in 2020 the inspector said it had to come out because it wasn’t up to code. It worked fine, so if you’re not planning to sell your house anytime soon I wouldn’t worry about using one.
