I wish a person could like more than once. ❤Because I find myself going to click the like a second time because there's just so many things in an episode that deserves an extra tick! Great job you two ❤
i think you enjoy those soft-close drawers too much lol, I can see you walking past them as you're going through the house and just randomly opening a drawer just so you can close it
Looks great, please remember to treat you countertop on both sides, since you otherwise risk ending up with a bent countertop. Especially if you put in a dishwasher which gives out steam that can penetrate the countertop from beneath which will in essence over time steam-bend the top and make it crack (I have run across this problem many times! On a side-note on that is - you need to seal the edges as well - especially the edge that is where you cut out the hole for the sink - otherwise you risk moist and mold getting into the end grains. A recommend using a few coats of lacquer on the edge of the hole. Keep up the good work 👍💪 best regards from a Danish cabinet maker ;)
PS. A nice trick if you want a silky smooth wooden countertop is to sand it using scotchbright sponges 🧽 while its wet with oil and then wiping it off after about 20 minutes. This will fill the grain in the wood will oil and sawdust making it smooth as a baby’s bum ;) if you want it even smoother you can polish with a peace of cardboard (make sure to fold it so you can scratch the surface)
Kitchen is really looking wonderful! I would have used the 20cm face plate then installed 2 draws behind it for the 1m upper cupboard.
Now that is a good idea 🧐 the tricky thing is that we’ve never used it as a ‘kitchen’ yet so it’s hard to know how we are going to use it and were exactly things will be stored! But it’s easy to change if we ever want to
@@BARBSTER360 The drawers next to the fridge look very high from the video angle... can you even use them effectively?
Ohh you such a nyc person you know james & hollie your video is outstanding & it will help me to improve on my English speaking thank you again james and holly please upload more & more videos by your im improve my knowledge & English speaking skills & your video is such intresting im watching your video constantly in just 20 days

Nice work, very clean... white!! but looks smart.
my best channel to watch since many years, you are the best
Thanks for hurrying!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Congrats on 40k subscribers. What a milestone indeed. I believe that you'll get to your goal of 50k by the end of the year (maybe sooner). The house is phenomenal. You both are doing such a wonderful job with it. What a blessing. Your dreams for that house are coming together beautifully. Cheers🥂🍾💐🎉🎉🎊🎊🌺💖.
Saw the Enter Shikari tshirt, subscribed immediately. Keep up the good work guys, looking great so far!
You are the best dynamic duo!
I am very very happy that Oak won! It looks looks gorgeous beautiful I know when you are through with this project you are going to be so very happy and pleased with your work and yourself God bless peace be with you much love and respect
Really enjoy watching your videos. I am amazed that you have managed to do so much of your house renovation all by yourself. Well done! Your enthusiasm is infectious and has rubbed off on me so much so that I have finally got round to tidying up my study! How could I not tidy up one room when you are doing a whole house. Your place is going to look great when its finished (garden too!). Steve (A Scot who is currently living in San Diego, California)
Aw thank so much for the awesome comment! We are very much looking forward to having a finished house… doing it ourselves is slower but I feel like it will be more rewarding when it’s done! And glad we inspired you to tidy, even though our house is a right mess haha 😅
I've never seen a fridge like that, inside a cupboard, very interesting!!! I like i how it makes it more uniform!
Looking good Guys!!!👍
WHAT! have you actually never seen one
@@thememegiant not that I recal!!! Maybe in a video or something but I did not realize thats how they work and I definitely never saw it being put together like he showed.
Here where I live fridges are separate and very much something to display, not put behind a door like that.....
Haha that crazy you’ve not seen a fridge like this before, they are very common here. And yes having integrated fridge, extractor and dishwasher will just make the whole kitchen seem uniform 🏚
How do the fridge and freezer get sufficient air flow around them when enclosed like that?
@@nickhickson8738 they are specifically designed to be enclosed and the cupboards have air vents under, behind and above them 👌🏻
I honestly think this channel is in my top 3 TH-cam channels. I love love love when you post new videos. Thank you for taking us along on your journey! Your house is looking amazing. Great job so far!
Impressed - learnt so much just watching your kitchen build 👩🏻🍳
#inspiring 👏🏾
I am finally caught up!!! I had to go back to the very beginning and watched all the videos. Like I said I just found your channel a few days ago and cant wait to see more and be part of your journey. Really love your channel!!!
Looking good. Sorry Hollie but I am with James in regards to holding things up slightly to fill in the gap next to the fridge. It looks so much better. Looking forward to then next video to see it finished.
its been a long road to get to the 40k subs i remember when you has just had 250 (congrats again next after 50k lets get you to 1Million Subs)
Yeah dude it’s been a long journey but and fun and enjoyable one! We really appreciate your support throughout it all 🙌🏻
Putting drawers this high up will probably end up annoying you. Also that the cabinet isn‘t lining up with the fridge on top makes me itchy 😂
I love you progress though, it‘s so much fun to watch u guys.
We spoke about the cupboard not lining up with the fridge a few episodes ago… basically there was suppose to be a cupboard above the fridge which unfortunately didn’t quite fit so that’s why it’s not lining up! But once it’s all done it will look great as the shelf’s etc will make everything all line back up again, it just looks a bit odd at the moment as it’s only half done! Also, the drawers are just an extra bit of storage so having them is better than not having them! Any extra storage in a kitchen is a good thing!!
Well done on the subscribers and well done on this kitchen reno so far!! Looks really great 😎
Thank youuu 🙌🏻
constantly looking forward to these videos, love the series.
Love it, nice work. What's the purpose of oiling the worktop? I thought these come ready?
You guys have done a beautiful job on your renovations!!
Love your content! FYI, see if you can avoid using flexible ducting. It will be extra noisy and the extra drag reduces the efficiency off your hood.
Unfortunately I think flexible is our only option, if I’d realised and put it in before the ceiling went up I could have put in dedicated ducting. It’s super big ducting at 150mm so hopefully it will be fine and not cause too much drag
love ur content, would love it if you could upload sooner
I know, we’d like to upload more but as you can imagine doing this house renovation takes a long time so the videos can only be as quick as I physically can do the DIY! Also I was working away for a week so that meant this video was delayed an extra week!
Wow kitchen almost done! Looking good! How much left in the whole house to do?
I was watching Gilroy vlogs when i seen you in his vlogs and next thing I knew , I started watching your vlogs and I'm glad I did ....you two are awesome ..love the adventures ....and congratulations on 40k subs
Aw thank you so much for watching and following 🙌🏻
what a beautiful kitchen. can you please tell me if you're happy with the worktop quality?
Thank you! Yes we love our worktop, it really finishes it all off lovely 👌🏻
Good job on all this, think hood has to be 700 above worktop, usually in a smaller cupboard lined up with top of adjacent cabinets, not bottom…
Nope, as we have an induction hob the extractor is a minimum distance of 550 so that’s why we can put it in a normal cupboard at the same height as everything else. We wanted that nice clean consistent line running around the bottom of the cupboards so they don’t go up and down above the sink and cooker like a tradition kitchen usually has
@@BARBSTER360 Ooo, that's interesting, I didn't realise there was a distinction :) I have one to do!
Wow im early haha! Just checking your channel to see if there’s a new video and boom! 18 mins ago!
Haha you snuck in there quickly, cheers mate for watching 🙌🏻
You put all the base units in with out doing the 1st fix plumbing?? 🙏
Correct! Haven’t been able to get any plumbing done, so instead of waiting we decided to get on with the kitchen and sort all the plumbing after 👌🏻
Ikea doesn't sell filler strips for their cabinets???
How long did it take to put together and put in?
Aren't those fridge cupboard doors or handles going to hit the wall each time you open the fridge? Won't that damage the wall over time?
Looks like it opens past the end of the wall so not touching. I would probably have hinged the cupboard and bought a fridge with hinges on the left.
Did you get ikea worktops?
No we didn’t, we ended up getting them separate. Mainly due to stock issues as it was mid Covid times and they didn’t have stock of the solid sustainable wood in the correct lengths! So we got them from a different company
Im from india im interested to watch ou ur video i will support you also
brooo first you need 2 inch gap from the wall. Then IKEA sells filler pieces you can cut to fit perfectly LOl NOOBB
