I’m glad I found this channel. I was watching one with a family from England moving to the Czech Republic and I really liked it but they’ve just quit making videos.
My heart went out to Emma. I had a back injury that took out my leg when my children were babies. I was on the floor for 8 months. I'm glad she didn't wait that long! glad all worked out for them.
My hat is off to them. In spite of every turn being enough to drive them nuts, they have persevered to their dream. I do hope they will have a happy life here.
This couple is an inspiration of hard work! I absolutely love the way they pulled this humongous project. That roof was just in time before those rains and snow and the house is getting every day stronger for probably 300 years! I have a feeling they are doing this also to inspire their family to be yet, harder and no matter their age workers! I love this people. Thank you for your energies and hard work, you're amazing!!!
I'm glad to see they finished the home and that it is indeed quite lovely. They learned some valuable life lessons along the way and are still fortunate enough, with the eventual sale of the bungalow, to be financially solvent. And, they have a new baby coming to boot! Wonderful!
love the house its so BEAUTIFUL and he did put his heart and soul into this build poor emma but now she and her family have a great home so now just enjoy
I'm really surprised they didn't convert an outbuilding into a cottage. It would be perfect for visiting family and it would have driven cost and drama way down if he did the cottage, moved in, and worked part time on the big house.
This guy makes me glad we have strict building regulations here in Australia and there is no way he would be licensed to use that crane, building sites are among the most dangerous workplaces in the world let alone having such lapse lack of regulation or oversight.
What makes you think we don't have regulations in the UK too? If this was a proper, professional site he wouldn't be anywhere near any of this. But this is a private site being run by a DIY muppet with just some mates and he's just hired the machine in. He can do what he wants, anyone on site will not be insured (so members of the public would be well advised to stay well away) and injuries are their own problem. I'd be surprised if there weren't just as many sketchy looking DIY disaster zones happening in Aus as there are here in the UK.
they are brave , if you have ever had to just redecorate an old building by yourself , with no construction history and you know the misery of the plaster coming completely away from the walls with the removal of the paper and how hard it is to re do the plaster then you are not even 1 /50th of the way to knowing what hard labour this will take , i admire them , they will have lifted themselves in one big swoop from a small bungalow to actual land owners with a big house , this will give their kids a much better future
With the state of the barn, chipping plaster was the one thing they didn't have to address, but it must have been an immense project. I have to wonder what it will be like maintaining that place in the future; the brickwork looked like a mess and it's hard to tell how that will ultimately affect the structure. Brick buildings have a certain presence that wood ones can't match, but when they have problems, they can be a nightmare.
16mins in and I find this so painful to watch. I lol when he said the house would be ready in 9months and I know nothing about construction. Of course I can't stop watching.
specially the part at around 16min in when he "cut" the tiles by whacking em with an mortar-shovel... i too came from a highly populated area and bought a house with land a bit outside town and while my house wasn't in any form close to this state it was still 70 year old roof with original tiles that needed change. i knew some had to be cut anyway so and knowing that anything made from ceramic or concrete breaks in pieces if you whack it (we have all lost a dinner plate in the floor) my first thought was "isn't there any rotary tool for this?" and sure enough, there is own discs for angle grinders for cutting tiles and they are cheap and last long. 50£ and he could have bought both an angle grinder and the discs and had 90% less broken tiles and done the work 5 times as fast... but with 5 times less drama...
OK that homeowner dad-bro is checking DELIGHTFUL. His laugh is so goofy and sweet. He has SUCH a gooditude. I would subscribe to his channel for sure. More of folks like him in the world, please.
Is not "simple", it may be simpler for the users, is "new life", although is in a very old and distressed home, which has being repaired! From the users point of view, their lives after the rehab is or may be simpler.
I think a simple life can be lived in whatever works for you... it's not dependent on the size of your house and property. There are pros and cons to both.
The 'new' home is nearly 20 years old now. The windows surely leaked like a sieve - no flashing - guess they relied on that nice dry English weather...
They should have turned one of the other smaller buildings into a guesthouse first, moved into that and then fix the big property. They are now just wasting money letting that tiny plastic caravan. Also... the guy clearly has NO idea what he's doing! He should have just continued with his job and paid professionals to build it.
did you watch through to the end? - he has enuff idea to get him and his family a beautiful home and a great lifestyle - neither of which he could have afforded if he had got a "proper man" in to do it for him ....
@@keithmiller4168 as I said, if he turned the smaller buildings into guesthouses he would have had enough money to pay PROFESSIONALS. Dont know where you get the 'proper man' from... He could have been living off of more than ideas
@@lolalo6344 the proof of the pudding is in the eating as they say, nice drum, learned a lot and stayed within his budget - and a "proper man" is what my mother amusingly called a tradesman who knows his stuff, in contrast to my Dad whose own DIY attempts were invariably something less than perfect :-(
Why is it that every single couple gets pregnant during the course of filming these episodes? Must be something about building a house that makes people want to fill all of the rooms! 😆
One thing I do not understand about these builds is why people are putting plaster directly onto mason army. Such walls transmit cold through out. The spaces and thereby raise heating costs. By furring the inside of the walls , and using plasterboard, at least doe minimal insulation can be obtained and can still allow for future changes to electrical an plumbing work if needed. Even in grade 1 listed buildings, such construction methods can be used. And if a planning board or building inspector objects, they should be made to answer this question. “ would you try to tell the Queen the same thing for the interior of Windsor palace?”
You can't just change a historical society's mind with "but I'd be cold tho." They don't care. They care about the building and altering it as little as possible.
@@carlotta4th in most of these cases, the property is being converted from one type of use to another. If the interior never had a finish, as many that are shown, then a planning commission has no business to insist upon a particular construction method, especially if the construction method being used complies to all modern building codes, or surpasses them. I used 5he Royal family as an example as due to a fire, the interior of Windsor castle need to be restored. The castle had undergone many renovations from the first build that included .the construction if wood frame walls inside if the stone walls. Would a historical commission insist 5hat the restoration bring the rooms back to the original stone walls in which the only comforts of a whitewashed stone room would be heavy tapestries, as in Dover castle? Would they be forced to use large wood burning fireplaces,candles or torches for light, or an open garderobe?
i was in hospital for 5 months with a prolapsed disk and pregnant , they were not going to operated on me while i was pregnant , that meant i still have it , 22 years on , but i learned how to stop the pain with only an occasional asprin to help , i might take one twice a month , walking actually helps me
This guy isnt the sharpest knife in the drawer. Lifting a Truss with a crane and forgetting to put the stabilizers down? I'm a 64 year old gramma and I knew that!
I agree - the drama is just a bit TOO "dramatic" and unnecessary. I do have a question regarding the show - are these people remunerated at all for basically BEING the entire program? It gives the facilitator a lot of space to attempt to add "color" to the show while we watch to focus ON the construction. I hope they do get some money for being the star of the show.
Everyone from a doctor to a checkout girl thinks they can do my job, construction project management. I know many project managers that are useless or they've a Prince PM qualification and think thats enough never mind someone whos never built anything. As mentioned below this was painful to watch and cost more than getting a part time PM would have cost and it would have been built right,it isnt.
This is hard to watch. The guy incessantly mumbles when he talks but also has no clue what he's doing construction-wise. Had to skip to the end just to see the final result and not listen to another mumbled word out of his mouth.
Why do these men who are in charge of these project with no building experience at all, come up with these impossible completion dates, with no idea of the actual time the work will take, and he should not have arranged to move out of the caravan until the very end. George Clarke should get more stuck in and tell them how long the work will take and cost, instead of letting them live an impossible dream for months.
George could rant and scream but it wouldn't make an iota of difference. But I'm sure the producers picked the biggest fools they could find to make the show more dramatic. No fun seeing careful, responsible couples plan properly with a reasonable budget. More fun watching train wrecks.
For some reason people think that they can build a house and master skills such as dry walling bricklaying concreting and all the other trades in two weeks pull the other one. Yes you can know roughly what to do but any builder will tell you that thirty years experience helps and that is just the start as technologies change even simple jobs like laying insulation down in an attic seem simple yes anyone can do it but can you do it well?
these are usually young couple, moving to bigger houses in order to allow expansion of the family, let alone the renovations usually last around two years
Beautiful space they have created! I have reno"d a couple of places and rooms, and we, just as these folks, use gypsum board or 'drywall' as we call it in the US... we use corner strips and tape for the seams, then we 'mud' the seams and corners, then sand them smooth...... These folks could have done that instead of plaster and saved thousands of quid and time out waiting for the plaster to dry... why do they do do this in Britain? This family could have saved thousands with the same results, and stress about $ in half the time. Bam, done! If this is not a listed building, which I think it isn't, is plastering even required?
It’s a beautiful build but why go into an old building When you walk inside you’d never know that it was an old grainery. It’s kinda old on the outside but no figures of that old ness on the inside
Terri Morgeson Building regulation insist upon a certain amount of insulation. They would have had to insulate at least some of the external walls and the only sensible solution is to insulate internally and plaster over.
I wonder do people wake up one morning and decide to be a lawyer and go defend someone in court that day, or be a surgeon and gear up to take someone's appendix out? then what on earth make them think they can restore an old building. It's just mind blowingly naive.
The minute he nearly tipped over the crane should’ve been the end his involvement with the project. If someone spends piles of money on materials and renovation, it should be done correctly. The building can end up having structural issues or expensive repairs later. It is a complete waste of money if something goes wrong later on.
First priority job, get the building water tight, then work inside in the dry with no wind blowing in through the holes in the walls where the doors and windows should be, come on George do you stuff give him some basic building advice.
its not a construction video , it a video showing people that have no training rebuilding a house from a barn that has fallen down, this is about human endurance, human determination , we are meant to live their frustration , pain and joy , not really watch them build , there are plenty on construction videos Amir , just type in construction
@@jitaamesuluma9730 I'm rather weird, but if my income depended on the property, I'd have first done up flats ("apartments" for Americans) in the barn so I'd have a roof over my head, sorted out an orchard, and market garden space, and chickens on the acreage (of course, it's a bit harder in the U.K. than in Murica with permits) for a side hustle and some food for our table, and then tackled the big house. Live in the smaller space through all this and rent out the consecutive flats that get finished, and move onto fixing up the big house then. It's been a dilapidated ruin so far, a year or two more would be fine.
Where is the history of thee old barn. Lincolnshire has a lot of history and history should be look into. I bet thee old barn has lots of history. It should be looked into. If that barn could talk it would tell you about the history of Lincolnshire. Next time add history, that makes the show more interesting. G.Timm

A simple life for the wife, no job to go to just sit back and be a housewife, easy.
Never move if it's not done, never quit a job if you ain't got a new one, never expect a renovation to be as planned
I hope they're happy in their new home.
The 'new' home is nearly 20 years old now. The windows surely leaked like a sieve - no flashing - guess they relied on that nice dry English weather...
Cool, another George Clarke series.
A hard build but what an incredible house.

Hi does George have opportunity to add value with his experience n education to each project that he presents , i wonder!
very nice design
While the building is interesting, each episode seems to degenerate into yet another soap opera. Cut the drama and focus on the construction.

Amateur builder takes on a ruin of a house and of course the wife gets pregnant .... have we seen this story before
It goes with the restoration of the property, a bun in the oven. just in time for the move in by Christmas, no better make that Easter
And a tiresome story at that
So they are covering up all of the beautiful brick work with stucco or plaster, I think I am gonna stop watching.

Of course it is mind blowing - but just read the amount of comments from people who admire this stupidity and it's clear why so many attempt it.
