I'm in North Carolina & know all about the heat & humidity, I bought a house built in 1930 that I've single handed redone 90% & my family is in the logging business so the floor joists I've replaced is 13 & 1/2 by 2 & 1/2. Love watching something I can relate to. 👍🏻👍🏻
I love the idea of that school. As a large portion of their grads will be contractors/self-employed entrepreneurs, I really hope their curriculum includes (and puts importance on) business classes, including personal finance and tax prep. This is such a huge life skill that is sorely overlooked and undertaught in our schools--coming from someone with a BFA in Design who really wishes that would have been a part of his education.
It can't be that good of a school if they require a liberal arts degree. That just ruins the candidate. Im sure these kids want to build a historic thing and then immediately wnt to tear it down.

@@johncortell4431 Hi John, I felt the guy was a bit nervous, and not a TV professional and just messed up his lines. It wasn’t noticed at the time and by the time of editing it was too late. Who knows? Obviously a means of protecting the membrane would be needed from both sides. I say this as NOT a building professional.
I know if I was there digging up old dirt floor kitchens and digging through old outside toilets I would be wearing at least a mask if not a respirator . But maybe that is just me
Maybe you might think a mask should be worn. There is no law requiring it. So, your statement is a value judgement. I would be wearing a dust mask, but the answer to your question is, "no", not of it you are asking if it's required by law.
@Todd Brill I'm inclined to agree, for the most part. But in a historic city like Charleston preserving the exterior doesn't bother me, especially when it sounds like you can do just about anything you like with the inside. I would hope they have some sort of provisions to help families that want to keep their historic houses in a livable state, but can't entirely afford the kind of restoration work needed to do so since they have those requirements.
The unions decimated the manufacturing sector in my country. You cannot hold manufacturers to ransom while demanding unreasonable pay rises. Yes sure the union got the factory worker that big raise, but now the company has shut shop and moved overseas. Everyone loses.
Not my favorite edition, but I did like touring the school and plant nursery. In fact, I would like to see more hands on work being created at the school.
I don't understand the problem with demolition a house that looks like that. Dumb laws and just another reason I will never move to a "historical district" You have to put up with BS like that and they tell you what you can and can't do with your house.
once you pass something like that, you lost all your historic houses. the same thing is happening in Buenos Aires, almost all the old houses were destroyed
This show seems to be for those who hire (or so wealthy they have someone else hire) someone to do a job in the most hi-tech expensive way for everything. I doubt a rich homeowner is watching these shows. This show seems to have lost touch with who works on their own home at an affordable price. It used to be for a regular person trying to fix something in their home.
Much of public broadcasting has. NPR used to have that show "Car Talk" where 2 mechanics advised people on car repair. Now it's over, and replaced with programming about food or travel.
Most of these liberal run cities bury you in a mountain of paper work from multiple departments. Like the part where Charleston won't allow you to tear a structure down , to start over. In lots of cases,, normal people can.not afford the immense exspense that brings.. That means the building sits till the city takes it. Or you loose to the bank, which writes off half that debt and sells to a contractor for 30 cents on the dollar. Been that way for years . Bob Villa made the comment that working in Boston was like working with mob. Best This old house has been away from theses places . But has only happened couple times in 45 years, now.
Or maybe time has passed, things have evolved and the show is reflecting the new reality. Nobody cares about your tears for the past, you sad trifling boomer
imagine that you are not allowed to do what you want with YOUR property ... begs the question ... is it really yours ? ...real estate taxes being paid are a given though ! ...
It’s kind of creepy to reuse the back house where slaves slept and where they served their owners. Demolish it and build a new structure. Or restore it into a museum.
"Mmm. This tastes good" Immediately puts it down and walks away. 16:52 😂🤣😂

Kidding of course, love the show!
love this old house

This college is awesome. We need a few more of them in the states.
I prefer trade schools over traditional degrees.

To stop any rough aggregate puncturing the vapour barrier?

Charleston: "You cannot tear this down."
Contractor: "We're gonna need to remove all this and pour new concrete."
Exterior work is controlled by heritage rules.
Interior is a free for all.
Everything's Chill: doesnt listen to video
Video: nothing on the interior is regulated

Don’t pay for trade school get it for free by joining a union
Why would you join an organization that supports political agendas that are not in your best interest?
@@scotttovey many unions are the modern day Mafia
Yea unions also pay better and give lots of new workers experiences they couldn’t have otherwise.
@@scotttovey That's called a corporation, my guy

Not 100% true... I work in high end clients and if ya got the money...you can buy your way out of it.
Thats the same with hoa houses

No, that's your personal feelings which don't apply on this historical project. Go tear a statue down if you want to feel better about yourself.

I'm laughing even tho mine are way bigger than his...
Shouldn't it be Kevin O'mygodIhavehugetits?
Yes he looks like he put a bit of beef on have not seen the show for a while
Something shady about that school.
Yep. Liberal arts degree requirement was the tip off
The liberal arts part is how they can still qualify the program for a bachelors degree. Otherwise it would be a technical degree or vocational.
😅😅😅😅 liberal arts college. Doing real constructive work.. NOT LIKELY. LOL
