What an accomplishment Dan & Laura 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Perhaps some folk commenting should remember that when you bought the land neither of you had ANY experience of building … and yet slowly slowly with a good attitude and perseverance look at what you’ve managed to accomplish ….. you’ve had a hectic rain storm and NO leaks …
Enjoy that feeling of “we did it” and don’t let any negative comments put a damper on this amazing achievement !!! Sooo proud of you both … Durban SA 🇿🇦
Hi Durban. From Jeffreys Bay East Cape. I agree, there are people that just can't keep there nasty comments for them self's.
100% agree with you. Those that critically acclaim their dissatisfaction are not worth the thought. They are doing their thing others i believe jealous of these two folk
Agree, couldn't say it any better. They are a lovely couple and learn as they go. And those "other people" should go to another channel if they don't like what they hear or see.
It’s so heart warming to read the above kind comments from people. Not only adding loving words but also defending the hard work Dan and Laura put into building and learning new skills. At the beginning of the each video they always emphasise that they are still leaning and all the knowledge they are gaining is actually doing things for the first time. That’s the appeal, seeing two people not shy away from hard work and getting stuck in and not being scared to say, we don’t know how to do this but we are willing to learn and give it ago. Im so very proud of them both. And I’m not just saying this because Dan is my son and Laura is my daughter-in-law ❤❤️❤️
@@carlharrison3661 oh, you are responsible for these two?🤣Great job. Laura and Dan go a long way to restoring my hope in the future of humanity, seriously. Such hard working, genuine, thoughtful young people (from a 58yo!), willing to give difficult, challenging things a go. I love them and their channel dearly. They inspire me on tough days to get up and give things a shot.💖🐨💖
Big congrats on the finished roof. As you say at the end, “you have both learnt so much doing the roof” I also see that, your strengths, is what makes you both a great team! ‘Keep the faith” and continue to look after each other.
Great job guys, I’m so impressed with the roof. It looks absolutely beautiful and blends in like a traditional roof. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Gloves. Gloves are very worthwhile.
That is a very arduous job: but the most important you have ever done. What a massive achievement. For the first time since you moved to Portugal, you have a solid, safe, weatherproof home. What an enormous step; very, very well done!
The traditional roof has come out so beautifully. Congratulations Dan and Laura. You need to tap yourselves on the back.
That looks great, wow!!! What a cozy love nest.....😊 Pretty soon you will be able to set up house inside and start living in it, how nice it will be to have a bit more normality to your living conditions, all through your hard work. Congrats!!!
Fantastic achievement and one that gives you a solid roof over your head and a dry home ...be in before xmas 🎄😉
Well done Dan and Laura 💛 You've come so far on this homestead ... nothing can stop you now! Go Guys! 🌿
What a lovely roof! Awesome Portuguese style home. Well done you two!🎉
Looks fantastic and I bet it feels wonderful to have a comfortable space to sit and shelter from the rain, the winds or the cold. May you be able to finish the interior work before winter! Bless your new home!
The roof looks great!! What a relief to have it finished. I’m excited to see what the next project is😊
Gosh, I was getting worried about y'all. You hadn't posted in a while. I just like watching y'all work together and do so well. Oh for my wife and I to be so young again and working hard together.
So proud of you both. Great job. 1 more project completed 🎉
God bless you for your perseverance. Thank goodness that’s behind you. You’re so brave for seeing this daunting work through. Nicely done hope you can sit for a bit and catch your breath. Blessings from 🇨🇦😉🙏
I am super proud of you two. The house looks great and all the hard work and swet is going to pay off. Enjoy every moment of the results of hard work❤❤
Congratulations the roof sets it off nicely.
Can't get over how fast and good it looks.
I hope you cut back those Olive trees before they damage the roof.
Looking forward to seeing the gutters maybe water barrels and flowers around the cottage as it will definitely be a lovely home.
Enjoy it to the fullest.
Well done, looks great, and looks like a home already. 🎉
The roof looks beautiful 😍.
Roof looks beautiful. Nice choice of materials. Great Job. Nice views from the roof. Thanks. Next a sky light. ha ha
Good you will be trimming back the trees to prevent rubbing and scratching the side pieces.
Thanks!
Thanks so much 🌻
Wowsers, the roof looks bloody marvellous 👌 i bet you're buzzing with that, great work both of you 🎉🤘👍..
another great job and a great accomplishment , pretty soon it will not be called a barn but it will be called a home
Good job.
Hard work does pay off 😊
You may want to trim those tree branches.
Hey! GOOD JOB out there
that house looks now really solid and aesthetic.
Nice to see your progress :)
Not very smart to put the screws on the water channels you gone have a big problem at list coat them with a good grade roofing silicon.
It's the normal way, the screws have an EPDM washer underneath to seal them.
@@jimtitt3571nah - supposed to be on the top curve - even Nick said so last week.
@@jodyessenhigh3637No idea who "Nick" is but the standard for this type of roofing allows both methods of fixing and so do all the manufacturers I've worked with, not all roof panels even have a raised profile.. If you go into the raised parts you need to use saddles which on their profile is going to be a real hassle since the profile isn't parallel. The manufacturers instructions will be readily available.
Nice job! In the future, any additions will be easy as pie!!😊 Can't wait to watch how the interior finishing goes!
Super job. Well done. So yep, job done now for the next one.
Well done Laura and Dan what an achievement the little house is looking good ❤
Really nice job, looks lovely. Now enjoy. Hello from Alabama, USA.
Hey family, make sure the roof is secured, in Jamaica now we're under the influence of Beryl the lady hurricane
What a difference the roof makes certainly getting there now. My heart was in my mouth when you started to slide down Dan. Can’t wait till next week now. Good luck and stay safe.Well done both of you.xx
Outstanding!
A great achievement Laura and Dan.. When you both were lying on the roof and waving I was waving back to the pair of you and smiling my head off at your achievement, I am very proud of you both. The roof is looking fantastic and blends in so well with the land. Good choice. Have a lovely day.
Onward and Upward Dan and Laura!! So thrilled for you both accomplishing a New roof!! LET'S GO!!!
Laurie and Dan, congratulations on the super work! Best wishes, Steven
Thanks Steven, was a tough job for sure 😅
loved it!
Well done guys. It looks so pretty. Love and be safe!😘🌻ve
Love the roof
I like your choice of roofing..great work
Thank you so much 😀 We thought it was a better option than tiles, as for tiles we would've needed to add more beams to support the weight, plus with the panels the insulations included :)
Nice work. Suggestion trim all tree branches that will blow against your roof. It may prevent damage and costly repairs.
Good advice!
OUTSTANDING work guys! I am very proud of what you have done so far! It looks great! You have your roof, you have your wiring in place, when are you moving in? With Laura's eyes for decorating I can't wait to see how it all looks when you're done! Yeah, there is some pointing left to do but you can do that while you're living in it.
I am not an "I told you so" person, but those gloves could have saved someone a scar! Gloves are cheap and really do help in a LOT of circumstances. Yeah, they don't allow that feel and I do take mine off from time to time, but as a rule they do way more good than bad. My cancer is directly connected to the chemicals and materials I was subjected to while on active duty. Gloves would have gone a LONG way towards stopping that. I was hard headed. I wear gloves now!
I am a Master Gardener and have access to some seeds your farmer may not have. (I expect the larger georgette (Zucchini here) he gave you would have grown some plants for you and may have been his intent.) Cucumbers, squash, zucchini, okra, green beans, peas and some others. If you ever get a hankering for that garden I will GIVE you what you need if I grow it.
Well done guys congratulation awesome bit of work 💯👏👏
Congratulations on completing this major milestone! I never miss your videos and really appreciate you sharing your story with us. Having a proper roof is a life changing event! Cheers!🎉🥂
It would have given you a lot more room space if you would have added a dormer or even two of them for a nice space on a second floor.
Hello my dear friends ❤
Hello 😊
great roof! now a drain pipe that leads into a
water tank, cutting back the branches that touch the roof and you‘re done!!! 😮😮😊😊
Congratulations of the completion of your new roof guys...Nick would be so proud of you both. You finished it with the clouds in sight and then when the heavens opened it was as dry as a bone inside, well done.
Great achievement, looks good but get some work gloves to save your hands from injury and some googles to save your eyesight.
Did you try a heat gun on the plastic? Also looks like you might need to build a French drain around the house.
Congratulations on your achievements! starting to get a bit confused, I thought I saw legend Nick helping you guys out 3 months ago 😂
Dan purchase an impact de Walt driver, you’ll wish you had bought one years ago.
Bless your new home
I give you so much credit for all your efforts
Well done guys. Getting the roof finished is such a big step.
I bought an old dilapidated farmhouse in SW France, but haven't made half the progress you guys have made. You put me to shame! That said, every time I watch one of your videos it inspires me to make a start on another of the countless tasks that I need to do to finish the house.
The roof is beautiful. The whole place is looking gorgeous.
What a great accomplishment to have built your own roof on your beautiful home. You have both come a long way since you purchased your land.
You are learning all the time, overcoming your fears and growing as a couple. Well done to you both. 🏆🥂🍾💐❤
Superb ...the roofing AND the filming!!
Now take a break!!😂😂
Hey guys, finally this roof is done so you can live in decent conditions.🎆It took forever, man. 🥵Now get rid of those bricks that are blocking the door and put your toilet in there. Have you ever thought what happens if you get a bad case of dia**hea in the middle of winter when it's raining cats and dogs? 🤣🤣This toilet has to be right there next to the barn with a door that opens directly into the "house." Stay strong and never give up.💪💪
Laura and Dan you have done a fantastic job congratulations.❤️❤️❤️
Your video not only showcases the impressive renovation of a stone barn into a functional off-grid space but also celebrates the dedication and vision required for such a project. By documenting this transformation, you've inspired viewers with the possibilities of sustainable living and adaptive reuse of historical structures. Your commitment to showcasing the journey from start to finish is both admirable and motivating. And I am Floating Village Life.
Guys, it's very complicated for you, because the sheets on the edges are easily put on by pushing the first one as you did before but taking it to the top tip and measuring the rest that was left at the bottom and inserting it in the same way and that's it, I recommend you see more videos about house roofs, greetings 👋
impressive work congratulations
Thank you so much 😀
Pois é, trabalhar faz calos.
Great job! Looks wonderful!
Heartfelt thks to nic for helping this couple god bless
Congratulations Dan & Laura on completing the roof, and doing it in the rain too.
You should both be deservedly proud of finishing it on your own.👍🏻
Congratulations, both, it looks great 👍
Amazed that it's strong enough to stand on.
What's the thermal efficiency rating ?
Love your property you have purchased.. best of luck with everything you do... 😊
Sorry to repeat what another commentor wrote.. please can you seal over the all bolt screw heads on the roof as they have been screwed into the rainwater run-off channels instead of the ridge.
The bolts you purchased with the roof panels were probably correct size.
I don't often use superlatives on here but f**k me folks, that roof looks awesome!! Well done. You're doing a great job. Best of health to you both :)
Wow what an amazing job you've done! Thanks for sharing your journey with us. All the best guys.
So glad you had advice and help from Nick, you both work hard and are learning as you go. Hope your visa is coming soon. Have a great week😊
If you are not in the financial market space right now, you are making a huge mistake. I understand that it could be due to ignorance, but if you want to make your money work for you... prevent inflation
Hey guys,
I don't know if I missed it but why did you guys chose to built the roof with this kind of panels instead of normal tiles? Is there any important reason besides the less amount of work?
Thank youuu and hope to hear from you.
Greetings,
João
I wouldn’t have thought wiring wood to a concrete beam is sufficient to secure in gale force winds.
They screwed the wood into the concrete previously.
Congratulations, the roof makes it look so big, great job you two!
Chuffed for you guys, the hard work is certainly paying off, looking lovely and please, buy some chuffin gloves :)
WOW,WOW! It’s such an improvement!
For someone that doesn’t know what they are doing, you sure are doing a great job!!!👏👏👏
Congratulations , you did it !!!!!!! Love your barn, you almost make me feel like going to Portugal and buy a barn to remodel , Nah !!!!! I am just going to stay at my sister's guest house and drive her crazy, she also lives in Central Portugal , just outside Coimbra and she already has a pool .
Amazing work guys! Well done ❤❤❤
Ah, well done you two, the roof looks really nice, you should be chuffed with yourselves. Sending ❤ & best wishes 😊
Laura, you sound very ill. Please look after yourself & rest when you need to. You are both doing wonderfully.
Thanks Debbie, at the time I was unwell with whooping cough, I'm feeling better now 💚
Gosh Laura you're an absolute trouper to soldier on whilst so unwell. An illness like that is hard on the toughest of us 👍@@theoriginhomestead

Now there's some genuine smiles, what a job to get that roof up, but it's done and now it's on too making this little home air/water/electric tight, good on you guys, I am so happy for you.
God bless your little hearts looking good xx
Thanks Cathy 💚
Great job guys!! 😎👍👍
Thank you! 👍
Laura, this comment is about wiring the roof beams to the concrete. A tool exists called, Vice Grip Pliers. It has a easy to adjust lock which would clamp both ends of the wire. Once clamped you could easily rotate the pliers to tighten the wire. They're easy to use and would probably make the wire tighter than you were able to do with channel lock pliers. A useful tool everywhere.
Well done you two 👏 it's looking great. You can be proud of what you have achieved 😊
Wow, the roof looks awesome. It shows that y'all can do a project when y'all work together. Love the channel and content. I live in eastern North Carolina.
When you have a roof on your head, Laura and Dan,you're going on progressing day after day. So pleased for you both. Can't wait to see you in❤❤❤
Way better off out there instead of the UK guys.
Looking good you two❤ you learnt well my young Padawans 😁👍❤
What a Beautiful Job you both did, and we thank Nick for his expertise ! It all looks so beautiful! Hey, how about a carport to put your van and truck under, with the same kind of roof! It will look stunning! So proud of you two! This is so exciting! Love you!
I think you will need to cut some branches that are hanging on your lovely new roof wall done ❤
Good morning to both of you. You two are so amazing at flipping houses , and you both are an amazing team . You are hired , God bless you both, friend s❤❤❤
well done you two a big one ticked of the list brilliant
Looks ace!
Thanks! 😊
The plastic is so hard to remove because the panels have been in stock for a long time with temperature changes, hence the reason it is so difficult to peel off.
Nice to see you again my dear both ```````relly miss u both `````amazing views ```` please take care yourself`❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Brilliantly well done.
