As a bricklayer I can assure you that there is no work more thankless, hard and dirty than restoring an old house, but it is still interesting and pleasant when by chance, you come across historical objects of all kinds, old photos, coins, knives or firearms almost as old as the house itself. But in spite of all the dust, cobwebs and all kinds of junk, the final result of the work is always a source of pride and satisfaction and you end up liking to go on restoring instead of building a new house.
I enjoyed your video! I love the history in old houses and admire your determination to do this mountain of work! Although it’s refreshing to watch just your work I really would have liked a few short sentences of explanation about what’s going on with the room your in, the damage and your plan then to watch it unfold! I’m guessing maybe language would be an issue?? Also where are you living? What kind of farming are you doing and what vision do you have for that part? I’ll be watching, and thanks for sharing this,
Тяжёлый титанический труд! Занимался этим, знаю не по наслышке. Но с такими помощниками: супруга,кот и друзья можно горы свернуть. Браво. Берегите себя и своих близких.👍👏
Awesome job, you are amazing, so glad you had Kitty to “snoopervise” everything you did, what would you have done without him/her? Cannot believe how hard you have worked, with love and good humor- many thanks with love from NY USA- XOXOX
Now, as an old man, with a lifetime of building restoration experiences from centuries old Manor House’s to small old farm cottages, I feel lost for words at what you have achieved and continue to achieve building your family home together. Anything I say can never fully compliment you both in the way you truly deserve. Your dedication, your work ethic, your tenacity, your determination. My admiration for you both is way beyond my abilities to convey to you in meaningful words. From one human to a very special pair of humans I wish to say that I am very proud of you, thank you. In a very rapidly changing world, one that at times I no longer recognise, you give me hope that hard work, along with all those other good human qualities that I mentioned earlier are still to be seen and found in this world’s younger generations. Don’t forget….. Be proud of all that you have achieved and you both continue to achieve.👍
And put so eloquently. I also enjoy your channel and I too am in awe of the level of renovation that you are carrying out . All your hard work will pay off as you will have created a magnificent family hone that will stand for another hundred years . I congratulate you both .
Счастья вам в вашем доме пусть радость живет в нем и слышится детский смех а вам здоровья вы молодцы такую работу делаете береги вас бог и пусть будет МИР
I have watched a lot of restoration and renovation videos with many enormous building challenges. But, I have never seen a couple work harder than the two of you, all the while you are continuing with your full-time jobs and raising a young family. You are amazing.
During this whole renovation, I see the one that did the most hard work is the big round chubby in the black fur. It feels so rewarding by watching your videos.
Наняли бы 100 гастарбайтеров, чтобы они им за неделю весь дом до фундамента разобрали по кирпичику. Всё бы разровняли и нормально бы ещё за две недели обратно сложили. Это всё равно оказалось бы дешевле, чем столько времени терять и столько переделывать.
@@MsValentino2 Я думаю тут вопрос еще и в финансах. Одно дело энную сумму гастерам за неделю отдать, другое дело это растянуть на 2 года, да еще и на много дешевле.
@@MsValentino2 кредит выплачивать нет удовольствия, а востанавливать дом своими руками это отдельный вид развлечения )))) кто-то лежит дома смотрит футбол и тратит свое время, а кто-то восстанавливает старый дом.
As an older guy, above all, I envy your stamina, and I hope this new home brings your family all the happiness you've worked so hard for. Good luck in the new year.
Pity you didn’t use a pressure hose to get rid of some of the muck on the cobblestones,might have save you some effort. All your efforts are impressive.Well done!!
This is more like a complete rebuild rather than a renovation. The amount of work is staggering, but even more impressive is that it was done by (apparently) just two people, plus a little help from two kids, the ReadyMIX dudes and the ladder climbing cat. The diverse skills needed were extensive (concrete, masonry, carpentry, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, roofing, glazing, landscaping, welding, painting, tiling, and whatever else I left out). Except for the baby tractor and a few power tools, the work was done by hand. It was a complete tour de force of the construction trades. Further, the work is almost professional grade. Well done!
TH-cam algothrim sent me here for the remodel. The high quality cat is just a bonus. These farm houses are pretty cool. Always fun to see how it's done in Europe vs the US.
Renovating can be so trying and difficult, even discouraging and defeating at times but also uplifting and empowering (along with so many more emotions.) Sending you a small gift and my encouragement and thanks for you sharing your journey. I am absolutely enjoying your videos and reaping in so much inspiration from your beautiful project. You are truly amazing!
We will keep the cobblestones and we will clean them again, we just had no time this year. But once we move in, we will have much more time and more evenings to bring more order to the house and surroundings.
@@DeHoeveNoTalkJustWork Hit them with "Total Kill" while growing to kill everything down to the root system. Do this 2 maybe 3 times before maybe doing a water jet cleaning and resetting with new paver sand.
When I first saw your farmhouse in it’s “before” state, I swear it was saying, “Take a chance on me. PLEASE, take a chance on me!!” So glad that you did!
I spent my entire youth and then some renovating and flipping houses my parents bought and sold. We did everything from basements to belfries, cabinetry to carpeting, demolition to downspouts, drywall, plumbing, electric, masonry, and concrete. That was long ago and I feel worn out just watching some of the back-breaking work you're doing. I can't wait to see where you go next and to see you relaxing and enjoying all this work.
THANK YOU FOR VACUUMING AND CLEANING! I’ve seen a billion restorations and renovations and NO ONE cleans up or brushes brick and wood. I can’t imagine how dusty and “old” those buildings smell despite new walls and paint. And y’all wear masks and gloves Y’all are the best DIYers I’ve seen
Watching those clouds go by , The rays of light, Abundance of trees in the background was terrific. How wonderful The beauty that you are surrounded by Inside And out side your home . We watched time go by And while you painstakingly made a home. Thank you sharing your labors of love. Gods country was definitely definitely ready for your family. This was wonderful.
Not only are your skills in renovation amazing, but your filmmaking skills ARE GREAT ! Those longer sequences with the butterfly, the coffee, the sky.. And your cat !
Great point. Can you imagine putting in long days doing this work, and setting cameras, the when you're exhausted, editing video? Sure, sitting down is a relief, but that's still more time away from relaxing and tending to sore muscles and back. Then again, reviewing the video shows you just how much you can accomplish.
As ever, hard work seemingly endless. Huge house to restore by two people.Loved all interaction with nature, even bug house; charming family. Will be a Beautiful home you will love because of your work. You have made it your Own.
I can't believe all of your hard two year old work can fit in an hour long video on TH-cam. I really admire how you did everything by yourself. Must be such a great experience to build your own home.
Heavens this is unbelievable as a couple both of you pulled this off . Hats off to both of you and your amazing family . This is what we say “ Labor of Love “
It's amazing to see that the entire area in front of the house was paved with brick or cobble. Sorting this out made a huge difference in the appearance of the exterior. Great work.
I once read an article about a farmer who cleared an area that was behind an old milking parlour, it was covered with 2 ft of compressed cow crap built up over several decades he thought. It was hard as concrete but when they got rid of it they discovered a huge flagstone yard that dated back a couple of hundred years!
Very inspiring! We‘re working on a farmhouse build in 1802 and it’s often heartbreaking and mostly backbreaking. You doing it with a smile and a cup of coffee in the sunrise. Thank you!
Outstanding effort! I’m in the carpentry trade, do all the things you’ve done, I know what it takes to do this manual work. But I have to say what impressed me thee most….the love you two have shown each other! The way you worked together through all that dirty tedious cleaning floors and walls, ceilings brick cleaning. Just incredible effort. Well done!
How nice it is to look at such a well-coordinated family: you are wonderful parents...with your daily work you show your growing sons...how you need to work hard to live in prosperity, no matter what! - What can be done from an abandoned building - rebuild a new beautiful home! - I want to thank you for the fact that you have combined all the series of video recordings into one, + accelerated video... giving us the opportunity to appreciate your enormous physical work!!! - The house ends up looking better over time... I'm very happy for you guys, thank you for being here!!! Good luck to you in all your endeavors!!! Good health and longevity!!! - GREAT HAPPINESS TO YOU ALL - IN THE NEW UPDATED ESTATE HOUSE!!!
The amount of work you've both have done, in two years, is staggering! Both of you are the most hardest working people I have ever watched. My favorite, re-doing the roof, add skylights and insulation, essentially saved the house. Take pride in the accomplishment of 2 years of hard work. Well done!!! Merry Christmas to you, your family and Ukraine❤ Take care and get some much needed rest over the holidays. 🎄🤶🌲🇺🇦 🇧🇪
Спасибо вам за такое тёплое время, что я смогла провести за просмотром ваших видеороликов. Восхищаюсь вашей смелостью и упорством, а так же качеством проделанной работы.
@@ОлегП-ъ5е Все мы одинаковы в любом уголке земли, жаль что нам настойчиво втирают обратное и колючей проволокой огораживают загоны. Дабы сильно не разбредались ,ну и конечно чтоб было совсем убедительно что местные аборигены исключительнее других, придумать религий разных и скреп побольше.
Очень нравятся старые дома, арки над окнами и кирпичная кладка выглядят очень красиво, любой кто занимался строительством, понимает насколько это огромный труд!
@@Viktor_Sedov Тепло в основном через крышу и окна уходит, если стеклопакеты современные и крыша утеплена, не особо важно кирпичная стена или деревянная, или какая либо ещё)
@@WytoArtandCustom ну да, а интересно зачем в Швеции вводят ограничения на т5плопроводность конструкций. И постоянно ужесточают требования. Раньше проходили дома с 90мм изоляции, сейчас около 250, а то и толще делают. Кровля Раньше лет 15 назад делали по 300мм, сейчас около 600. Вы себе не представляете разницу в оплате за отопление между старым домом и новым. Поэтому так и рассуждаете. Или думаете что на западе всё так сладко и гладко? Могу привести примеры по платежам в сезон отопления для сравнения. Старый дом и новый. Примерно одинаковые по площади. И назвать зарплаты средние чтобы было понятно что останется на покушать. Может тогда немного пройдёт понимание о чём я говорю.
@@Viktor_Sedov Я лишь говорю что разница не столь значительна, то что не все могут ее себе позволить это уже другой вопрос. Понятное дело что в Швеции, где энергоносители очень дорогие есть смысл утеплять дом серьезно. Не очень честно говоря хочу сравнивать теплое с мягким.
@@WytoArtandCustom ну так похоже что видео под которым мы пишем комментарии это вроде Англия. Я не думаю что там дешёвые энергоносители. Хотя зима намного мягче Скандинавии. Поэтому я и говорю что если бы была возможность, я построил бы дом по новым технологиям. Хотя мне нравятся дома в старом стиле. Но они очень холодные. Я занимался не раз реставрацией старых зданий в Швеции. Как ни странно они иногда стоят дороже чем новый дом. Квартира к примеру около 60 квадратных метров в старом доме стоила почти столько же как новый дом 120м2 с современным тепловым насосом земля-вода, с рекуперационной отдельной вентиляцией, участок около 9 соток. Для меня это абсурд.
I'm only halfway through watching and I'm exhausted!! You two are the definition of dedicated and relentless. What a MASSIVE amount of labor and dedication for DIYers. I can't imagine watching you that you've never had any training in the building trade. It's utterly amazing work you are putting into this home!
Been renovating as well for almost a year now (only Fridays and Saturdays). The amount of rubble was insane. Can't imagine how it must have felt to finally reach that tipping point where you started to fix stuff instead of demolish stuff!
Wow, so much work and you guys just seem to keep going and never slow down. So remarkable what you two have done and you will have something to be proud of, may God bless your effort and hard work.
Guys I can’t believe 2 years have gone by already!! I still remember watching that first video and subscribing. I have been a fan since then. All my love to you from Chile 🇨🇱
You two are extraordinary! So much hard, dirty and sometimes dangerous work over 2 years. I would probably have despaired at some point and would have given up. You have my respect! Greetings from Bavaria, Germany.
I'm in awe of you two. The determination, the spirit, to keep going, day after day. I take a bow for you. You even had time to build an insect house for your daughter. Now that's love and dedication. What a family you are. I hope it will be your forever home, since you have work tirelessly for all these years. Well done to you both. I have never enjoyed a restoration as much as I have this one. Wonderful xxxxxxx
Taking the roof off is always a challenge and you have had it as well with the rain and the flood. But, in the end, what a fantastic roof you have now! Fab!
Two years have flown! You have accomplished so much. I am so proud of you Illia, Marina, kids and other family members. Your home will be spectacular when finished! 😊
Love it. reminds me of what we did 35 years ago in 3 of the houses we consecutively owned in the UK. but i do regret the endless time and money we spent that we could have spent on family etc. we had full time jobs, twins a few months old and very little money. the first house took 20 years the 2nd 6. we learned a lot, made mistakes but now we are reaping the reward but i am now 62 years old.
When I watch videos such this I can only appreciate how much hard work and commitment is invested in bringing the house back to its original structural beauty. I always imagine that old houses and old furnitures breathe a sigh of relief when they are renovated and they are grateful. I will continue watching your improvements and wish you all the best this new year.
Oh mean i love what you doing how meany things you are recycel, and the Cat is so sweet, and i enjoy the video from beginning to the end. i am supprised for the next video from you. Really a great work .
I kept saying to myself, I remember when they did that! How much you two have accomplished. Thanks for the recap. Beautiful. Wishing you and your family a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. 2023
Спасибо большое за этот прекрасный проект. Написала этот комментарий в первую минуту просмотра. Фермы и дом сразу понравились. Хорошие люди ее строили и жили в ней .
I’ve been watching your progress for the last two years and you have worked sooooooo hard! I can’t wait to see the final home built and you living in it. It will be amazing!
A stunning amount of work ( done correctly ) you must feel such a sense of accomplishment . you basically have a newly built , antique farm house now .... can't wait to see what comes next !
I can´t remember when i saw a house being build with all walls made of brick, a house like that can last more than a 1000 years with some love and care. Europe have a fantastic history and so many beautiful buildings. It´s a joy to watch you bring the buildings into the future.
As a bricklayer I can assure you that there is no work more thankless, hard and dirty than restoring an old house, but it is still interesting and pleasant when by chance, you come across historical objects of all kinds, old photos, coins, knives or firearms almost as old as the house itself.

To uncover that beautiful brick entrance was wonderful!!!!
English chain-link masonry and the house has been standing for hundreds of years

Its good to know the cat there all along to supervise your work and keep you on schedule

Just seeing the stone courtyard emerge had me hooked. What a fantastic process! Congratulations and great work!

Still love watching the beautiful Belgium skies! What an accomplishment you have achieved in 2 years.
Most hardworking and determined couple In the renovation podcasts. Defimitely the top couple among equals. Fantastic energy and eill
What a great team you two make, I’m sure you thought there’s no end with repairs but it’s the journey that makes the memories for a life time!
We try to see it this way as well :-) As a hobby and a journey. With such a big project, the end of the repairs and works is not feaseble.
You were a pair of very brave monkies who has no fear of Danger whatsoever wow your just fantastic
What an amazing rebuild....lots of stamina...love the cat...need a good rest when finished...,😊

Спасибо вам за такое тёплое время, что я смогла провести за просмотром ваших видеороликов. Восхищаюсь вашей смелостью и упорством, а так же качеством проделанной работы.
Люблю такие видео в которых дарят вторую жизнь старинным домам. Лайк однозначно!
Где это видео снималось? До этого был убежден, что только в России женщина может коня остановить и в горящую (ремонтируемую) избу войдет!
@@ОлегП-ъ5е Все мы одинаковы в любом уголке земли, жаль что нам настойчиво втирают обратное и колючей проволокой огораживают загоны. Дабы сильно не разбредались ,ну и конечно чтоб было совсем убедительно что местные аборигены исключительнее других, придумать религий разных и скреп побольше.

Great video 👍 Love the fact the cat always gets in the shot and bravo for such a epic and great build.
Love it...the cat checks out the van to make sure that what was ordered, got delivered. Can I hire the cat? Love your hard work, folks.
Нет слов что б выразить своё восхищение Вашим умелым ручкам и упорству👍👍👍🤝😺
This guy tried to save every thing reuseable that's what I like
Очень нравятся старые дома, арки над окнами и кирпичная кладка выглядят очень красиво, любой кто занимался строительством, понимает насколько это огромный труд!
Да, красиво. Но не энергоэффективно с сегодняшним ценами на энергоносители.
Также мне нравятся старые дома.
@@Viktor_Sedov Тепло в основном через крышу и окна уходит, если стеклопакеты современные и крыша утеплена, не особо важно кирпичная стена или деревянная, или какая либо ещё)
@@WytoArtandCustom ну да, а интересно зачем в Швеции вводят ограничения на т5плопроводность конструкций. И постоянно ужесточают требования. Раньше проходили дома с 90мм изоляции, сейчас около 250, а то и толще делают. Кровля Раньше лет 15 назад делали по 300мм, сейчас около 600. Вы себе не представляете разницу в оплате за отопление между старым домом и новым. Поэтому так и рассуждаете. Или думаете что на западе всё так сладко и гладко? Могу привести примеры по платежам в сезон отопления для сравнения. Старый дом и новый. Примерно одинаковые по площади. И назвать зарплаты средние чтобы было понятно что останется на покушать. Может тогда немного пройдёт понимание о чём я говорю.
@@Viktor_Sedov Я лишь говорю что разница не столь значительна, то что не все могут ее себе позволить это уже другой вопрос. Понятное дело что в Швеции, где энергоносители очень дорогие есть смысл утеплять дом серьезно. Не очень честно говоря хочу сравнивать теплое с мягким.
@@WytoArtandCustom ну так похоже что видео под которым мы пишем комментарии это вроде Англия. Я не думаю что там дешёвые энергоносители. Хотя зима намного мягче Скандинавии. Поэтому я и говорю что если бы была возможность, я построил бы дом по новым технологиям. Хотя мне нравятся дома в старом стиле. Но они очень холодные. Я занимался не раз реставрацией старых зданий в Швеции. Как ни странно они иногда стоят дороже чем новый дом. Квартира к примеру около 60 квадратных метров в старом доме стоила почти столько же как новый дом 120м2 с современным тепловым насосом земля-вода, с рекуперационной отдельной вентиляцией, участок около 9 соток. Для меня это абсурд.
I'm only halfway through watching and I'm exhausted!! You two are the definition of dedicated and relentless. What a MASSIVE amount of labor and dedication for DIYers. I can't imagine watching you that you've never had any training in the building trade. It's utterly amazing work you are putting into this home!
Been renovating as well for almost a year now (only Fridays and Saturdays). The amount of rubble was insane. Can't imagine how it must have felt to finally reach that tipping point where you started to fix stuff instead of demolish stuff!
Brilliant job! Really enjoyed this. To be about 50 years younger.
Dear DE Hoeve, You are doing a big job on that nice building . I whis you all the best. Love from Denmark!!
Wow, so much work and you guys just seem to keep going and never slow down. So remarkable what you two have done and you will have something to be proud of, may God bless your effort and hard work.
Guys I can’t believe 2 years have gone by already!! I still remember watching that first video and subscribing. I have been a fan since then. All my love to you from Chile 🇨🇱
Thank you ❤
You two are extraordinary!
So much hard, dirty and sometimes dangerous work over 2 years.
I would probably have despaired at some point and would have given up.
You have my respect!
Greetings from Bavaria, Germany.
I'm in awe of you two. The determination, the spirit, to keep going, day after day. I take a bow for you. You even had time to build an insect house for your daughter. Now that's love and dedication. What a family you are. I hope it will be your forever home, since you have work tirelessly for all these years. Well done to you both. I have never enjoyed a restoration as much as I have this one. Wonderful xxxxxxx
Taking the roof off is always a challenge and you have had it as well with the rain and the flood.
But, in the end, what a fantastic roof you have now! Fab!
Two years have flown! You have accomplished so much. I am so proud of you Illia, Marina, kids and other family members. Your home will be spectacular when finished! 😊
I have a similar last name. This video warmed my soul. Well done.....well done.
Молодцы! Столько труда, а сколько ещё впереди) Но уверен что результат будет отличным!
Wow! Just wow!
oH, THE ENERGY OF YOUTH! I wish I still had that kind of energy to get things done! Amazing!
I've been watching from the beginning, what you both have achieved in those two years is phenomenal.
Thank you very much, Patrick!
Love it. reminds me of what we did 35 years ago in 3 of the houses we consecutively owned in the UK. but i do regret the endless time and money we spent that we could have spent on family etc. we had full time jobs, twins a few months old and very little money. the first house took 20 years the 2nd 6. we learned a lot, made mistakes but now we are reaping the reward but i am now 62 years old.
When I watch videos such this I can only appreciate how much hard work and commitment is invested in bringing the house back to its original structural beauty. I always imagine that old houses and old furnitures breathe a sigh of relief when they are renovated and they are grateful. I will continue watching your improvements and wish you all the best this new year.
Oh mean i love what you doing how meany things you are recycel, and the Cat is so sweet, and i enjoy the video from beginning to the end. i am supprised for the next video from you. Really a great work .
I kept saying to myself, I remember when they did that! How much you two have accomplished. Thanks for the recap. Beautiful. Wishing you and your family a very
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. 2023

That one is a mammoth project!!! You have done miracles 👍❤️
Спасибо большое за этот прекрасный проект. Написала этот комментарий в первую минуту просмотра. Фермы и дом сразу понравились. Хорошие люди ее строили и жили в ней .
I’ve been watching your progress for the last two years and you have worked sooooooo hard! I can’t wait to see the final home built and you living in it. It will be amazing!
KUDOS to the both of you for taken on this enormous task of renovating an old farmhouse - BEAUTIFUL & THANX for video of the ADORABLE kitty ♥️♥️🥰😻🇩🇰💪
A stunning amount of work ( done correctly ) you must feel such a sense of accomplishment . you basically have a newly built , antique farm house now .... can't wait to see what comes next !
I can´t remember when i saw a house being build with all walls made of brick, a house like that can last more than a 1000 years with some love and care. Europe have a fantastic history and so many beautiful buildings. It´s a joy to watch you bring the buildings into the future.
