    Welcome back everyone, I had to take some time off but I am back for another big year of working on junky houses. As this house gets near to the final day of work, think about what you would like to see next. In this video, I tear out the old steps and build new. It felt good to get this task done. I'll be tackling more soon so stay tuned. I'll probably do a video every 2 weeks for now, maybe more and if I get busy, maybe less. But I promise I'm doing as many as I can.
    Thank you all for the time you spend watching my videos. Looking forward to hearing from you in the comments and emails. Thanks again.

    I've pretty much concluded I'll watch ANY content you put out. I initially came for the woodworking but stayed and subbed to the other channels because of the work ethic and determination. At 63, I won't be restoring an old house anytime soon and yet I watch every single one of your uploads. I just have to say how much I appreciate your videos - especially during these crazy and increasingly alarming times (not even talking about covid). There's just something very calming about watching you get dirty and smash concrete - provides a sense of normalcy. So thank you for that.

    Personally, I’d watch you renovate house after house after house. Yes, technically they’re the same, the same steps, the same skills, but it’s about how you adapt to the older home, its problems, and the condition you find it in that makes it super interesting. Plus, I personally never get tired of watching renovating content, I soak it in by osmosis and watching similar content over and over helps me learn without traditional book reading or note taking.

  • @lowipp8500

    As far as content goes this is the only renovation channel I’ve ever stuck with. I got excited when I saw you posted a video and was happy to watch.
    I see both sides of it. You could knock a house out a lot faster if you weren’t recording every step. And you feel like your fans might get tired of watching similar content. But if they’re like me they’ve learned a lot and also find it aesthetically pleasing. Do what’s best for you and your family and don’t get burnt out. If you’re tired of doing the same thing do something different. If you really just want to get a house done fast and don’t want to fool with recording every step then do that. I’ll miss the renovation videos but you’ve made so many. You don’t owe us anything.
    I’ve watched a log cabin build and I think it would be cool to see you do one. The guy I watched used hand tools only which I thought was interesting.
    Whatever you decide thanks for everything you’ve already done!

    there's a way to level concrete sidewalks that advertises on TH-cam by using high pressure foam injected under the concrete... i'd like to see you use it and have an honest review... heck might even sponsor you. keep it up.

    • @Beruthiel45
      @Beruthiel45 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      We used that for a sidewalk in the back garden and along the side of our house, plus one corner of the driveway a few years ago. It's okay, nothing special. Lighter than mudjacking, which is what they call it here in western Canada when they use a form of concrete to pump under concrete that needs lifting. Warning, don't touch the hardened foam with bare skin. I nearly lost all the skin on my hands after carelessly tidying up extruding lumps and bits after the contractor left. Allergies or toxin, I don't know but it was not fun. 😖

    • @danielweathers3591

    I'm perfectly happy to watch you go through the same steps with another house. No two houses are exactly the same, and watching you solve the problems of each house helps me see different ideas for solving the problems in my house. It is also exciting to see a complete destroyed house become a warm, inviting family home again. I also like to watch urban explorers from time to time, but they begin to break my heart to see all the abandoned family homes around. Worldwide, the population is aging and there are fewer and fewer young folks to occupy these older homes, and so many folks don't want to take the time and effort to update these homes. Our history is being lost as these homes are lost. You are the antithesis of the urban explorer channels. You aren't documenting the loss, you are saving what is being lost and making it useful again. I can't wait to see the farmhouse made livable and useful and loved again.
    On a side note, it is lovely to see your family, even if only their voices and backs. Family is exactly what these homes are about. Family is so much what we have lost.

    Cabin build, anything build, yes! You have a great "can do" attitude which is inspiring. I love watching renovation/build channels so perhaps approach it by how you start at the beginning, project design + & -ves, drawings, budget, process etc. Whatever you do will be great I'm sure.

    Amazing how redoing crooked steps can make a place look so much better. Awesome job....and just for the record...get rid of those two shrubs in front of the porch. Replant smaller ones further out in a nice mulched bed once spring comes.

    I’ll watch whatever you upload. I’m here to learn but your videos are very entertaining as well. I’d like to see a cabin build as well as the other house renovations.

    Now this channel is something healthy to watch. I like the cabin idea but I was also looking forward to videos of the other house. Its great learning from you not just about building things but outlook on life. Keep going

    I love watching you fix up these houses, and have been hoping you'd start on the house that's right by this one next. Have been watching since day 1 of the $10,000 house!

    Up here in Ontario we do a process called hydraulic jacking. Holes are drilled into the unlevel concrete and thensoupy mortar is pumped under pressure raising the uneven surface to level. I did my sisters patio and recovered a 2" discontinuity in a crack and prevented an expensive pour.

    I really want to see that other house! I think its absolutely crazy you can find houses this cheap and I like seeing all the various quirks associated with them. A cabin sounds like a good idea for this channel, basically a start to finish custom house build but a little bit more simple than a normal house to make it easier to follow along with.

  • @juliec3965

    Yes! Build an off-grid cabin in the woods. Please include siting issues - where on the lot you choose to build, which way the cabin faces, and why. Thanks!

    I'd love to see a cabin build series, either on this channel or your other channel. On the other hand, what I like about this channel is simply watching how you tackle the repair and renovation of houses you purchase to turn into a rental property or resell -- or even if it were to become your new home. It's all about your resourcefulness and how you reach the finished project. Although you do appeal to the audience who may be looking at it as an investment opportunity (along with the potential hard work involved!), my interest is mainly in the way you approach saving a house that is in pretty sad shape at the start.

  • @Kcd16

    A log cabin sounds fun. I would like to see it filmed start to finish, cutting the logs and framing ideas to where you put a generator and setup. Keep up the good work.

    Haven't even finished the video but already a thumbs up. That jackhammer is a must for you H.H. If anyone is gonna put that thing to work it's you. Welcome back, looking forward to what comes next, and we all knew that porch was never gonna have a prayer of staying.

    Follow your bliss.. I'm onboard either way 😁 I personally enjoy the house renovations because it shows different scenarios with different solutions.. each project takes on a life and personality of its own.

  • @oldvlognewtricks

    Continuing doing the same thing would still be fascinating. Every project has different history and problems to solve. Don’t worry about it not feeling fresh: we love the stuff you put out and there’s no need to change things up unless you want to to please yourself.
    (Love the cabin idea!)

    I really love your videos . They give me so much pleasure . I see a little of the area the house is in , I and imagine the pleasure the neighbours must feel in seeing the old house spiffed up so very beautifully. I wouldn’t mind betting there will be a fair bit of work quietly getting on in the neighbours homes as they are heartened by your work and motivated by it too.

  • @robniemeyer3832

    I think you should do a timber frame cabin. They are quite interesting and require a special set of tools and skill set.

    You baby is adorable 💝
    Wanted to say, you can lift that cement slab by drilling holes where the slope is and forcing fresh concrete in those holes until the slab rises and levels up.
    There is a company here in southern Ontario Ca. that does this. Thank you for sharing your talents with us. 👍🏻Happy weekend to you and your family

    I would love to see the farm house project and/or a cabin. I just enjoy your outlook on life and your drive to create long term income producing assets. I think you are a fantastic example of how someone can achieve financial independence on an average income, with hard work and a strong will.

  • @tomconway6808
    @tomconway6808 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I would watch you redoing that other house and building the log cabin. Yes, the other house is "more of the same" but each house presents different challenges to get around that could be interesting and informational. Ultimately, I enjoy your style and sense of humor so whatever you want to work on should be a good watch.
