- Restoring the cedar siding and exterior pine wood trim on a 101 year old house. Full restoration of original wood siding with scraping, sanding, priming, and painting. Replaced rotten sections of trim and tightened everything back up. Very labor intensive, but worth it in the end.

You did a wonderful job, most people would take the easy way out
Great Video, This explanation of house painting is exact. The steps you have taken are exactly what I did 20 years ago and still is holding up. I was younger then and now turning 73 I will be refreshing some sections this summer. Lots of work, but worth it.. Thanks for the refresher course. Old lady in MA
That’s wonderful! And I’m so happy to hear that your hard work paid off! Fingers crossed that mine will last for 20 years. Happy painting!
Oh this is funny, I am 72 and started my house today. I painted it 18 years ago with my mother, after my father passed away. This time it is just me!
Wow, basically stripped it to the bare wood. Lots of hard work and dedication. Nice work
Thank you, Chris!
Amazing job! It looks beautiful and I see all the hard work that went into making it come back to life! Bravo to the both of you!
Thank you! That is so kind of you to say.
Wow, good work, it came out looking beautiful.
Thanks so much!
Wow awesome job Katie. I have done a repair and paint on an 110 year old house and I can really appreciated the time and hard work it takes to do a job to a high standard. And don't those old homes look so smart when freshly painted. Also I discovered that keeping up the cleaning maintenance was a great help keeping the house looking cared for.
I don't think I would ever recommended using power washers on the old homes unless super low pressure. Great job.
Thanks Andy! I couldn’t agree more. It a never ending job properly caring for and maintaining a home, but keeping up on the cleaning makes a world of difference. I will be washing the house here in a few weeks as the Wisconsin weather starts to warm up.
You're amazing, Katie Lou! Great work, very fun seeing your hard work, it looks beautiful.
Thanks Ana Maria! I’m so glad to be done with that project and finally moving onto another.
Wow that makes a big difference. Looks really good and what a wonderful color!
Thank you! It looks like a different house!
Wow!!! I'm so impressed by your hard work and perseverance. O.O
Thank you!
I can honestly say that was a great video! I'm in the process of doing the same thing and this just motivated me much more.. Thank you for sharing...
You’re welcome! And thank you so much for the kind words. I’m new to filming and editing video. But it is such a fun hobby! And I just love having the videos to look back on. Great memories! Best of luck with your project!
Looks fantastic. Great job restoring your house!
Thanks, Brian!
I really appreciate seeing the dedicated effort and consistancy to do the complete job right! Kudos to you for such an approach.
Thank you for the nice compliment!
Oh my gosh Ma'am! What an amazing job. Thank you for the video.
Thanks Catherine!
Well done!!! Very nice. Congratulations.
Thanks John!
You did a really great job on the prep. Beautiful finish.
Thank you for the kind words. I’m super happy with how it turned out.
Old is gold 👌
Great job! It's so refreshing to watch the work of those who want to do it right and appreciate the beauty of older homes. My house was built in 1911 and I'm stripping paint now, came in to take a break and look for some inspiration and advice.
It’s a lot of work but worth it in the end! I would get lost in my podcasts while working outside on the house, but a good break was always so rewarding! Enjoy the process and best wishes to you!
Looks wonderful! I getting ready to restore my wood siding on my garage and appreciate you sharing the video.
You’re very welcome. Hope it goes well for you!
Good work takes time and attention to detail. Be proud of your work!
Thanks Julie! It’s worth it to come home to a house that is taken care of.
Absolutely beautiful. A lot of hard work, but you guys did the thang!!!
Thanks so much! Appreciate the kind words.
I m impressed! It looks awesome!
Thank you!
You did a great job. It has inspired me to work on my house. I just have trim, but at 73 that is enough. Thanks for the tutorial.
Thanks! It definitely feels good to have it done. And it’s amazing how different the house looks. But I’m not so sure if I want to tackle any projects this big again either 😂
Just gorgeous! My son and I are planning to work on our 1910 bungalow this summer. I'm researching tools for sanding. I've saved your video, noting "cool use of cherry picker". GREAT idea!
Thanks so much! I hope it goes well for you and your son.
Nice work! I watched to get ideas how to prep, redoing our 1940's garage. Thanks!
Lovely home. Beautiful work. Huge job.
Thank you!
@@olsenkated You're most welcome!!! Appreciate your work and care. Such a wonderful home and family!
You just brought a house back to life. Great job to you and your other did Lot's of hard work to say the least. Your house will last for another 100years plus because of the amount of prep you did. Every professional painter will agree with me.
Thank you! I sure hope it lasts another 100 years. It was way more work than what I first thought it would be. But I’m glad I did it.
Super helpful to watch your process and attention to detail. Thanks for sharing! My house is a 135 year old Queen Anne Victorian and has recently had the old vinyl siding removed. My biggest challenge in thinking about painting it myself is reaching the highest gables. Glad to see you used a man lift! You’ve given me a good dose of motivation.
I bet your house is gorgeous! And maybe a diamond in the rough if it has just been uncovered. I used to be afraid of heights, now I just respect them. The man lift was so much easier on the body. And my feet are thankful! Standing on a ladder all day is definitely hard on the feet - they aren’t destined to stand on such a small surface. Best of luck on your project - I would love to see photos! They simply don’t build houses like they used to.
I have a Victorian and doing lots of research on paint and primer before painting the exterior.
Very nice work & a daunting task. You did an awesome job!
Thank you! That is so very kind of you to say.
Amazing job , taking everything down to wood like that is a ton of work for sure 👍
Thank you! And thank goodness I’m finally done with it 😆
Saw your video and I was very impressed, I was in the painting trade for 40 years on the West coast. For the first 20 paint removal by propane torch and tools were allowed, not any more though. Your prep reminded me how paint can be removed, an amazing effort for those involved.
Thank you for the kind compliment! This was my first time ever doing a paint removal project like this, and I’m not sure if I ever want to do it again. 😂 that sounds like a very hard but rewarding career!
Great job! I have to repaint a very small section of the wood siding in my house so this gives me a pretty good how to guide so I appreciate it and you did great work. Thanks for everything here.
You’re welcome. I hope your project is going well.
ACE job! Nuttin like doin it right! Thnx to ur helper. Not only for the muscle, but for the lift in spirits.
Thank you! Agreed - it was great having Cole come down and keep me company on some of those LONG summer days.
Big job! Looks beautiful!
Thank you for the kind words
Surprisingly good video after what I thought was a slow start. Good commentary and information, excellent video cutouts to make a point. Great video. Thanks!
Thanks! I’m new to video editing and love playing around with it. Learning where to find royalty free music and pair it with the video clips is such a challenge for me.
Labor of love, looks really great!
Thanks so much!
Great work, Be proud of yourselves, that was worth all the effort.
Thank you! I'm just glad it's not something I will have to do again anytime soon.
Great job guys
Omg I have an 102 years old house and I was looking an “easy and most cheaper” way to paint it and you just inspired me to do it your way I guess I’m spending this summer out with my tools 🫠
Best of luck to you! I’d love to see before and after photos.
Looks Great! Well done.
Thank you
Very nice way to cope difficult times. Respect!
I am inspired now. I just got a house that is from the 50s and looks like yours did.
Congratulations on the new house! Best of luck on all your projects.
I like your ambition and energy.
Great job.
Thank you!! 😊
Fantastic job! I live in northern California and will be scraping then painting my home over the long Thanksgiving weekend.
Hope it goes well! We have snow here now. So no outdoor projects for me anytime soon.
Well done. I'm going through the same process as of early spring 2022, I hope to be done this fall, you gave hope 👏
Hope it goes well for you! It’s definitely time consuming - but you can do it! I listened to a lot of podcasts which helped the time go by fast.
That looks amazing! Every time I’m grumbling about a little paint project, I’m going to think about you guys for inspiration. You really put your heart and soul into that project and it shows!
Thank you for the kind words and great perspective! We all get 24 hours in a day - I find needing to remind myself how important it is to spend it wisely
I'm impressed, you did a great job the whole way. I'm prepping now for an older building and the scraping is a lot of work; your video motivated me to keep going.
You can do it! One day at a time and eventually you will run out of areas that need prep.
Wow you made it look amazing 😊
Thank you! That is so sweet of you.
Props to you guys for choosing beauty over convenience. Vinyl/aluminum makes things look like a trailer mobile home
Thank you! Haha, in the the end it was worth it. But there were a few times during the process that I asked myself why on earth did I choose to go this route.
Your home looks beautiful.
Thank you! It is so nice to come home to a house that I’m proud of!
That is a big job you did it great.
Thanks Dave! I’m very happy to have it done.
Well done, Katie. You should be proud.
Thanks so much. That’s so very sweet of you to say.
Great job! You did it right!
Thank you!
Wow 101 years old sounds really old, then I remembered my house is about 75 years old itself! You guys really did a great job and I am glad your boyfriend came to help because this is one of the most difficult jobs you can do. I just started my house today and I am doing it alone. The last time the house was painted was 18 years ago after my fathers death. My Mom and I worked and painted every single day and it took about 3 months. Two coats of primer and two coats of paint, so in reality we painted this house 4 times, UGH!!! We did a good job for it to last this long however!!
Congratulations and best wishes to you and your new home!
Thanks so much. It’s a time commitment for sure. I’m glad to hear yours lasted 18 years - hoping mine does too.
Beautiful job.
Thanks so much!
Wonderful job 😊😊
Thank you
Thanks for sharing this video. So inspiring, as I’m preparing to paint my house (on my own) during the summer.
What a beautiful home 🏠!
Thank you so much! That is so very sweet of you. Best of luck on your painting. Remember to drink lots of water!
Great video! good idea! May all your dreams come true.
Thanks so much!
Looks good!
Thank you!
Wow….just WOW! I’m working on my early 1900’s schoolhouse home, and you’re making me wonder if I should be a little more dedicated to doing it right the first time. Well……. This is actually the second time around! :)
Thanks! I’m hoping that this paint will last with the proper prep work. I guess only time will tell.
Nicely done. Looks great. I usually paint top to bottom to cover up drips, but I am sure you had your own process.
My grandpa suggested that too. There were a lot of days that rain was in the forecast, so I wanted to get that raw wood covered and cured as quickly as possible. But both you and my grandpa are probably right. I should have started top and worked my way to the bottom.
great job!
Thank you!
Well done!!!!!
Thank you!
😊 fantastic job! Looks bright and fresh... well done. I'm about to do an old wooden house myself, in much the same condition as yours was, so I watched and paid attention to your great work. Learned alot! Thank you. Hope you have many happy years in Yr new home. ❤
Thanks so much! Best of luck on your painting project - hope it goes smoothly for you.
This is exactly what I was looking for, thank you!!!
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching.
Love learning from a woman!!! You did a great job! Scraping paint off of my deck now🤦🏼♀️
I hope your deck project goes well! I have faith in you - you’ve so got this!
Katie, what a fantastic job you did on this! I grew up in Oshkosh so as soon as I saw the Kwik Trip I knew this had to be Wisco :) I am doing the same thing starting this fall and continuing through next year. We have a 1950's built home that was originally sided with cedar siding 12" reveal. That was covered in the 1960s with aluminum siding... and I've been pulling that off and finding the siding still in very good to decent shape. I plan on doing exactly what you have done. Sadly there are no Menards in Upstate NY, where I live now. I'll be using Sherwin WIlliams paint and an oil-based primer too. Go Packers and Go Brewers!
Hi Steve, Hello from your home state of Wisconsin! That’s awesome, I hope your project goes well. I was somewhat lucky that some of the old paint cleaned off easily due to so much sun exposure and how neglected it was. Wonder how yours will be since it has been protected for so long. Best of luck to you! I bet it’s going to turn out amazingly!
Nice work, 😊🤝
Thank you!!
wow thats alot of work paying off,looks good
Thanks so much!
Good job!
Thanks :-)
Wow! Que gran cambio le diste a tu casa les quedó muy hermosa. Y ahí están los resultados de un grande esfuerzo y el amor que pusiste para lograrlo. Mis felicitaciones y gracias por darme ánimos para yo también pintar mi casa
Gracias ☺️
Gracias por las amables palabras. Espero que la pintura de tu casa salga bien. Es mucho trabajo pero vale la pena al final. Espero que mi tradiccion sea buena. Mi espanol es pobre.
@@olsenkated No te preocupes y claro que tú Traducción a español esta muy bien. 😉
Thanks for your video I just bought my 1930 home, I can’t pressure wash or even soft wash I decided to fill the holes and then paint 💕
You’re welcome! Best of luck - I hope your projects go well.
Katie, You inspired me 😀, as I have been thinking of painting the exterior of our home. I am a 60 yr old women who is a DIY kind of gal. I saw our neighbor paint the exterior of his home on his own. He did the prep work, and paint work by sections. He is a single man who works full time, so he did if on weekends. It was a long process but the results were so amazing. Again your an inspiration Katie....great job👍
One day at a time!
That is so awesome! It is hard work, but that makes it that much more rewarding when it’s complete. Truly transforming for the home and it made me slow down and appreciate the small things in life at the same time. Hope your project goes well! I would love to see before and after photos.
Wow! Katie Lou! Great job! You and your boyfriend busted your butts on this house! I think it came out great!
Thanks so much!! It was definitely a long processes. But I think it was worth it. Not that I ever want to do it again 😂
Terrific job. Now... go have a good rest.
Why?
Because... you get to DO IT ALL AGAIN in 10 years!
Enjoy!
Beautiful job! I've been doing the same thing on my house( circa 1927)
Thank you! It’s a lot of work - I hope your project is going well.
@@olsenkated alot of work would be an understatement. Its a quest, but yes , so far so good 👍
Marvelous Bravo
Wow that's very professional, well done.
It is very difficult to find a good painter nowadays, the way you doit it will last at least 10 year. 💯🖌️👍
Thank you for the kind words! This was my first project like this. I learned a ton and enjoyed the process.
Kudos for restoring, not replacing!
Thank you! I’m so happy with how it turned out.
@@olsenkated We need to do that to our victorian one of these days too. We found a great tool called a Speadheater Cobra. It heats with infrared energy which breaks the pain bond away from the wood so it scrapes off easily. It might be good for future projects! We have some videos on our channel that show this.
Really good work
Thank you!
@@olsenkated You're welcome. With a little will and want anything is possible in life never forget about that. I see so many young able bodies out there taking life for granted these day's. It's refreshing to see someone work towards something they want or need instead of begging someone to do it all. God bless
@@weirdmatter That is so sweet of you to say! I think so many people have forgotten what it is to take pride in what they do and own. Just because I can't afford to buy a move in ready, no maintenance required house, doesn't mean that I can't have a nice home to live in. It was a fun process to restore the outside of this old home. And quite affordable. But I am so glad to be finishing up with the massive project that I signed up for haha. It was a little time consuming.
Well Done, the differance is amazing, bet you were glad that the Covid break allowed you to work on the project - (Dave Mac for United Kingdom)
Thank you! I don’t know how I would have gotten time for all this without it.
Would love to see an update. Such hard work that most people would not tackle themselves.
thank you - and thank you for the suggestion. I filmed an update this week and hope to have it edited and posted soon!
You must have strong hands that’s a lot of scraping and hand painting, it turned out very nice whole different look well done
Well, my hands definitely aren’t your typical dainty lady hands hahaha! Thanks! I’m super happy with the results of the paint and how it has been holding up to the elements.
my house is 103 years old ... thanks ... especially for the electric sander tip.
You’re welcome! Hope it goes well for you!
You live next to a Quick Trip? Sheesh, I'd be going there every day. Great job on the painting project!
Ha yeah, We go far too often! Thank you.
Nice job
Thanks!
lovely
Thank you
I love this...my old home has a high amount of lead paint and the wood is so damaged 💔 so vinyl may have to be my best option.
Oh no! Sorry to hear that. I got lucky and most of the wood was in good condition under all the failing paint. Hope your project turns out well!
nice , good job, "if you want it done right...."
wow great job!! Amazing results. Very inspiring. Im planning on painting with a sprayer myself. Muuuuuch faster.
Thank you! Hope your project goes well. A sprayer would be so much faster.
Sick job. Me & partner have 100+ house & a lot of similar old but great wood, but covered with lead paint. a gnarly job, but can be done :)
also ty for a real youtube home/diy video. so much "HEY GUYS LOOK AT ME". appreciate more human approach with same skill level. cheers!
Thank so much! It just takes a bit of patience and elbow grease. On days when I get frustrated I just think back to the lifestyle that people lived 100 - 200 years ago. In so many ways we are lucky with all the modern conveniences we have today. Yet so many people lack in taking pride of who they are and what they do. Enjoy your project and I hope it goes well!
in the future you can use an oscillating tool with a scraper attachment to make ultra short work of the scraping 👍
You got it sooo easy!!!! My house is 90 years old with the thickest old lead paint ever!! I had to experiment with so many different tools and I’m 2 years into this project. I had to work off of free time from work and school! I’m just happy I’m almost done!
Oh wow! Hope the rest of your project goes well.
@@olsenkated yeah thank you!!
It turned out amazing! I really admire your dedication and pouring your soul into your home! That is what makes it a home and not just a house.❤ Just I have always been wondering way in us most of the houses are painted, when it's such a pain in the a$$ every couple of years? We in Europe, if we have wood out or inside most of the times it is just impregnated.
Thank you! This house is definitely starting to feel more like home. A lot of people don’t maintain their wood siding in the US and it goes neglected. That would be so cool to see the difference between the US and Europe styles of siding!
Way cool I have to do the same thing.
Thanks - best of luck with your painting projects!
Looks really good, especially to do all that scraping & sanding!
the paint scraper you were talking about is carbide blade, not carbon fiber haha not a car panel. Im surprised no use of a sprayer when it came to painting?! just goes on so much faster. I reccomended back brush or back rolling, as you're spraying, to make sure it gets worked in good. but yes to speed up painting, esp all the eaves etc goes quicker. do a good job masking too, if spraying
Ha! Thanks for letting me know that I said it wrong - no one has said anything in over a year since I’ve posted this video. But I miss speak all the time 🤷🏼♀️ I thought about using a sprayer but didn’t want to have the extra prep and the expense of the equipment. Probably would have been worth it in the long run to save time. But I’ve also never used one and didn’t want to mess it up. I’m definitely not an experienced painter. Just a DIY gal with time on my hands, an old house, and a low budget. I got lucky and most of the eaves have been updated to metal soffits. It sounds like you have experience with painting big projects like this, so I’m glad to hear you think it looks good!
@@olsenkated yes.. I do painting for my business, along with roof cleaning, pressure washing, gutter cleaning, window cleaning, Christmas lights. You did amazing with the prep! hard to find anymore these days, people willing to scrape etc!
You would of learned just fine & quickly with a sprayer. Then end up painting more projects too with it haha. really nice to be able to spray doors with a fine finish tip & deluxe paint like Emerald Urethane from Sherwin
@@mcsqueegee81 that’s awesome! Thanks so much for the kind words and the painting tips. I will have to look into a sprayer for future projects. Also, I love it that you do Christmas lighting! I also do professional Christmas lighting - it’s such a fun industry to be part of!
Wow that is a great job! I am heat stripping our porch banisters now. The paint is 1/4 thick and it is rough going. Now if only I could figure out how to strip the sides of the spindles which are just straight wood.
Doing the same thing right now - using a heat gun and scraper first, and then die grinder with flap disks to sand off the remainder. Tough job anyway you do it.
@@cbrinsfi I just wish the infrared heater would get to the sides of spindles. They are too close together so I would have to use my heat gun and cant find respirator for lead paint. Side note some children apparently practiced their cursive writing on the bare wood back in 1903 before it was painted the first time.
Whoa! That would have been so cool to uncover. Also annoying that there was now writing on the wood. But what a cool piece of history that was hidden for so many years.
This makes me think there is hope for my house that has older lapboards as siding.
There’s always hope! Hopefully the wood is still in good shape.
@@olsenkated The majority of it is. Thank you. Just gonna be a lot of scaping.
Thank you. That might be helpful to me.
My house is around the same age. I just tested it for lead and it came back positive.
Most paint that is that age will have lead. My advice would be to do your research for your local regulations and safety concerns.
that was an amazing transformation and I know how much work it is I painted my 1930's house about 10 years ago. My garage is old too with many coats of rough paint and needs to be done again. What was the scraper again that your Dad recommended?? thanks!
Thanks! How is your paint holding up from 10 years ago? I’m hoping that this process helps make it last longer and proves to be worth it all. It was a purdy premium 2 1/2” carbide scraper.
