Love the channel. Don't ever sell out or buckle on what you've got her. A bunch of real guys, on a real jobsite just being themselves is what makes your channel great!!!
I have to laugh at big brother Eric who is so careful to keep Jamie from "talking too much" (according to him) by interrupting and talking over him...pretty often...such that HE ends up being the one taking over and doing most of the talking. And this time I really had to laugh because he did that again, even though the answer to the question was something Jamie actually did and so had the actual real world experience with (the putting in of a new foundation under an existing building), and therefore should have been the guy to answer the question. But he didn't really get to because big brother talked over him the whole time. 😂😂😂 Well Jamie, I'm the younger sister of a big brother and I "talk too much" too according to my brother. So I just wanna say I feel ya bro. Seriously though. To be honest, I frequently wish your videos were LONGER. I get SO much out of what you guys put out, both in valuable information AND entertainment, and frankly I really like the lengthy detailed explanations Jamie gives because I always learn so much from him! So while I get that you're probably following a basic time frame format (which has obviously become extremely successful), I just want to cast my vote for more and longer videos...because you guys (the whole gang) really rock!
I worked on a job in London where we had to dig under and support a stone foundation. We ended up casting a large pier, building brick up, and then packing in a super dry mortar mix on top of the last course. The dry mix was hammered in with a sledge and a wooden block.
I want a Jamie show, where Jamie gets to give us all the details and long answers to the building complexities you guys have and us DIYers may encounter one day. As long as he explains it well (which he usually does until he gets cut off) then there is no reason not to let Jamie get it all out. Maybe a new series called "Jamie real talk". Then he could cover a specific topic in detail such as roof flashing or expose the truth about banister spacing. It may have a little crossover with the build series videos which need short answers but getting more knowledge to the people is never a bad thing. I've learnt everything I know about framing and construction from YT. I work in the IT field but I'm currently building an extension to our home for my growing family. You just can't get this kind of building knowledge anywhere else where I live in South Africa.
@7:11. Really enjoy the Q and A's. Quick note I'm pretty sure you attached the vertical portion of the railing to the bottom rail which would actually make them spindles, not balusters. Balusters are attached directly to the footing. As long as people get what you're talking about it shouldn't make any difference but you brought it up first in your video so just clarifying.
I’m an Electrical Engineer by trade, but I’d gladly take a two week vacation to work every day along side Arlo so I could get priceless, real world experience building. Great segment gentlemen.
In Europe ,we use a special concrete mix that expands.Very easy,and lifts very heavy full brick houses,with no problem. 👍But Arlo idea was quite ingenious!
Hey man what you're describing about shimming up the blocks before grouting is close to underpinning but not quite...underpinning a foundation is where you dig down under the footing about a 3ft long section you add reber in a grid pattern and pour concrete/cement till it reaches the footing and might encapsulate it then you skip a 3-4ft section and do it again then you come back after the concrete/cement has cured and dig out, rebar and pour the sections you skipped the first time around the house and this makes a solid foundation/footing also you dig it a little wider than the existing footers. Its pretty labor intensive...you can use something like a back hoe but to get up under the footing you really need to do it by hand/shovel but yeah that underpinning a foundation and the reason I know about it is I believe my house may need it done...so I have researched it and for some reason I'm getting dajivou lol I feel like I may have seen this video before and commented?
I need to actually put a foundation under the kitchen of my 1870 farmhouse that's currently sitting on dirt. Your advice about shimming the top layer and grouting that gap will be VERY helpful next year since I plan on tackling that project! Thank you!
I put the last blocks in by myself once. So I used an air shim to lift the block, then used real wood shims, then mortar, then after it dried removed the wood shims & filled with mortar.
I come here every day looking for you guys AFTER watching the news. Frustrated and angry I come here and get treated with optimism, tomfoolery, a learning experience (DIYer here) and filling my head with positive energy and I feel better :) :)
@@raincoast9010 I wasn't asking for advice on my lifestyle. I was complimenting the brothers. I watch news in evening for 1/2 hour or so (mostly progressive channels on TH-cam) so I won't be ignorant of the world around me. The rest of the day I am renovating my house and maintaining my permaculture food forest and vegetable garden with chickens. As stated in my original post, I watch these guys for their "positive effect" and overall I'm very cheerful and optimistic about my own future thank you very much.
In my experience poured walls crack vertically and leak far more than block walls leak. Some block foundations I’ve worked with are 60-70yrs old before water is an issue. Most poured walls were under 10yrs old, and one was only 2 months.
@9:35..."I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it!" RIP Mitch Hedberg. Also, Ray getting all the right angles...he really is the Golden Boy. Jason has a case, methinks.
Oh, ha, and you answered that comment of mine! Good answer! I was concerned that they'd be noticeably different - I'd only ever seen people do it the first way, so was interesting to see a different way.
We had a railing done where the balusters were evenly spaced and the end ones were just set as is. One of the sections had one side about an inch from the end but the other was almost 3 inches. We had them take it all down and do it like the Perkins brothers did. So much better!!
There were a LOT of Packard Trucks that hauled a lot of moonshine and other illegal spirits back in the 20's and 30's. as well as stocking groceries all over the country. Yes, there were Packard trucks as well as cars. Good, reliable, and strong.
Packard stopped building trucks around 1923-1924. I doubt if very many of these were used to haul bootleg liquor during prohibition. However many early luxury automobiles were repurposed when the original body started to look old-fashioned. Sometimes a wealthy car owner would commission a new, more stylish body to replace the original. Others would be sold cheap or scrapped and then reappear with a pick up or flat bed cobbled on the back behind a truncated body. A fair number became wreckers, making use of the powerful Packard engines and strong frames.
Holy Smoke!!! Thanks to you guys and especially Arlo, you've solved a problem, I've had for a bit, and didn't know how to solve it!! From one Transplanted Tarheel to you guys, many thanks.
i use 2x6, 8, 10 and 12 wrapped in plastic wrap for concrete forms then reuse on the house. to me working with wood is ways faster and lighter than blocks and then all the weight is in the concrete pump so i don't have to lift tones of materials
Underpinning here in Michigan means Underpinning a foundation to add onto or rework a new building. So you typically dig under the original footer no more that 2/3 of the footer and drill in new rebar hens pinning and your under the original. Typically this is only done under columns to build new columns right next to each other. But very rarely is this done the hole length of a building
When you talked about the last block being installed in replacing a foundation wall I noticed that you did not put a layer of foam (used to seal between the sill plate and foundation block in new construction) in before wedging in that last cap block. Won't you get insect and air infiltration into your crawl space? It was not done (anything to seal between basement wall and sill plate!) when I built my house in 1978 and I have had insect/mouse problems with no good way to after-seal that area.
though you called them pickets, I knew exactly what you were talking about. Lighten up people. 🤣😂🤣 You guys have such a comfortable on camera presence, makes watching your videos very enjoyable.
Eric, I hate to tell you this but your "little" brother is actually bigger then you are, (Grab a tape measure). Maybe, you should say "younger brother".........
look at you guys go, i am studying for Level 3 exam 3 with a heavy component on Site Work and i was specifically searching for underpinning videos, lo and behold Perkins brothers pops up, I am trying to finish studying this section so I can watch episode 13 of the Modern Home Build.😂
I'm not even gonna pretend I'm an expert here, but have been thinking about your comment. I would guess that the house is lifted on a combination of jacks and fixed pylons, which can't be slowly and uniformly lowered a couple of inches. I'd also guess that they lift it to the desired height so that they can build the foundation up to that reference. Once again just speculating.
Steel and core fill is code here🇦🇺. Underpinning is done for structural repairs. Also instead of blocks you could habe formed up collimns and poured a high mpa. Your "grout" os called mortar. Here anyways. 😁 i also do your way with balustrading
Hi Eric and Jamie , had a house fire in 2009 and when I rebuilt I used superior walls. Have you ever considered using them or are they even in your area ?
hey ray :0) jaime this is when you put your brother in a headlock for always cutting you off. i wanna hear what you have to say. im one of those detail oriented person. im taking notes. keep that in mind.
I do a lot of decks....there is an app for baluster spacing that has changed my game...type in the space between posts, baluster thickness and desired gap between.....voila done and done, it will even give you a spacer block thickness. Things will vary of course becasue just like you guys said the posts are never the same distance apart to make perfect equal gaps but fuck man I do railings in minutes now.
I asked this b4 as well. 1 is availability like they talked about. 2 is to pass final for occupancy it needs to be treated for termites. The local pest control wont sign off on ICF bc you can't see if the bugs have tunnels in the foam.
In northern Europe or in Russia it IS the way to build houses. it is more expensive of course but way more strong. and yes, you lose all space inside walls for pipes, electricity and so on.
I have an old tobacco barn that I'm debating on tearing down or shoring up. Half of the concrete brink foundation has fallen away, one side's 6x6 mudsill(?) has twisted and is almost off the crumbling blocks with that side of the barn drooping. Even with those problems it seems pretty sturdy so I'd love to get it where I could use it without fear of the thing falling on me. Plus I'm not sure how to bring it down safety other than using a bulldozer. I've searched youtube trying to find a video on how to shore up an old barn foundation. if you know if any good ones....
Could just have mortared on top of the final brick lol... Not gonna cause any issues. I'm digging out 3 feet to create a full basement, gotta replace my sill plates, carrying beam, and a number of joists ugh lol plus underpin the dug out perimeter of the foundation.... I'm a novice lol
In ireland, pickets go in a fence. Spindles are the vertical members of a baluster. Baluster is what you call the whole assembly of handrail, spindles and shoe.

It’s just like the internet to spin out over terminology. But I guess if it’s pointed on top and extends past the top rail it’s a picket. Otherwise it’s a baluster? idk
theres no way a poured block wall is as good as a poured concrete wall,and every carpenter i know can form and pour a foundation just go rent some quickstrip forms
block walls are every bit as good as poured. in some aspects block is better especially if rebar and grouted as these guys show. poured walls are faster its the only reason to pour.

you can jack up the house an inch or two more, and then set the structure back down. How do you get mortar all the way under the last row?

Could you have drilled a hole in the top block and injected mortar until it came out the shimmed seam then cleaned it up?

You mentioned using the block as a form, have you ever used ICF? Just curious.
Loving the Q&As! Is the farmhouse done in real life? Is the next big project lined up?
We call them spindle’s in Tennessee.... lol
When grouting block walls over about 5 feet high, do you use cleanouts?
Thoughts on ICF vs Block? Sounds like they'd be much the same in your usage

Would a piping bag be more efficient and do a better job?
Is it still within code to build a house completely with concrete blocks? Minus the roof of course.
