I prefer a sink with water mixed in the spout. Separate hot and cold spouts are not easy to use. I'm also into cottage living and have a house from 1894 that we restored and renovated. It's cozy and has good plumbing, electricals, no dishwasher, wood kitchen counters, pine floors. Good luck, Julie!
I agree. This is one case where I don't think we should stick to traditional ways. Using water that is mixed in the spout doesn't leave you running the water so long as you attempt to get the temperature you desire.
"Soldering", "marauders", what fun listening to variations in pronunciation. As an architect and historic preservationist, it's fun to watch the work. Cheers-

Yes it is sah-dring or sah-during In the US. I always say we’re very phonetical speakers but in this instance, it appears we would be wrong by not having the “l” in there.
Just about every letter in the English language alphabet can be silent in some usages. In this case, American's make the "l" silent thus they say 'sodering' (as in 'palm' or 'calm' or 'salmon' etc,) but it appears that in British usage the "l" is NOT silent. In recently usage, people are now pronouncing the "t" in 'often', however when I was growing up in the 50's the "t" was silent as in "ofen".
@Joan In Florida Thank you!! I was just thinking this! It’s definitely a Californian influence, people like Kim Kardashian that pronounce everything slowly and excruciatingly drawn out, it honestly makes them sound stupid instead of intentional. So obnoxious!
I like Julie. She’s intelligent and always has good questions. She’s a good rep from Chicago and an asset to Mapperton. She and Luke make a great team.
I hope you went with a mixer tap instead of a hot and cold tap. I've lived in UK and the cold tap can issue *freezing* water and the hot tap gives you very hot water. It's nice to have warm water when you want it.
Uugghh Julie. Definitely go with the cute individual faucets, BUT just have a single spout (mixer) for the water to come out. I rented a house in the 90's that were separated and it was a horrendous experience. I don't care for the single lever that lifts and turns side to side either lol.
I just love the look of this enchanting cottage! It's just delightful 😊 Please keep us posted on this project as its very exciting to see the progress..even if its minimal. Just love it! ❤️ Thanks Julie.
@Julie. I would definitely watch longer!!!! I am emotionally invested in this project and could watch for an hour straight!!!! Such a lovely cottage!!!! 😍🏡. Thank you for sharing the process with us all!!!! Have a stupendous day!!! ✨😁💫👍
@@lynda.grace.14 there's a few odd words - would/could/should - but do you not pronounce the 'l' in soldier? Just seems odd that 'solder' becomes 'sodder'.
@@sallyannc3176 I suppose all one can do is say, "Sod her, who knows?" People who learn English as a second language (never mind the variations of English pronunciations and accents within the UK as well as globally) have been puzzling over this question for ages. Some of it has to do with the numerous original sources of English due to the influence of multiple conquests on the language.
Wow!!!!! Everything looks amazing! Julie, you were US pronouncing soldering which is correct to all of us American😊 Can’t wait to see the bathroom fixtures. Once again, your dress in your sponsor spot was so beautiful👍🏻 Thanks for sharing❤️
The hot and cold pipes appeared to be touching as they were on the rafters. If that happens the heating of the hot pipe followed by contraction when cold will over the years wear away the copper and cause a leak. I found this out when I investigated a leak in a previous house and the cause was the hot and cold pipes touching which over the years wore away and caused a leak.
Julie that is smart to have the water on separate lines . we did that when we build our home. I can’t wait to see what you finally chose for the bathrooms. It will be beautiful i know! You have great taste. 💕
It is a straightforward word, and Gus pronounced it correctly, albeit with his local accent. It was Julie who hadn't heard it before and couldn't get her tongue around it. lol
Howdy from Oklahoma City!!! You’re just so fantastic to watch. I love the banter over the difference in pronunciations with our favorite sister country England. Thanks so much for replacing Hollywood for a time in my life. 🇺🇸😀🇺🇸
Thank you for your consistency in uploading. Thank you for your lovely attitude. I am an American and it’s refreshing to see an American perspective without the stereotypical nonsense that always seems to bleed in. Thank you.
It is fun to see the progress on the cottage. I am hoping that we will get to see the garden team come out and transform that overgrowth around the fairytale cottage into a fairytale cottage garden!!! 😁🙏🏻❤️
Looks like you are making very necessary renovations to update the cottage. For some reason, I'm most excited to see how you decorate the bathrooms/loos. However, I'm looking forward to see how beautifully you decorate that charming cottage!
Hey Julie, the fairytale cottage is taking shape once the plumbing and electrics get done it's on the fun things. I do like the London fixtures as well for your water I hope it will fit the sink from Marsh farm if you go with that one, anyway we will have to wait and see, Thanks for today's video it was fun Love from NY.
It really is a sweet cottage can't wait to see the final results. When I watch your videos I really miss England :( Julie, loved your hair in that style, very pretty !
Curious why Gus notched out the floor joists to lay pipe? Here in Canada 🇨🇦 it’s a big no-no. We drill holes through the joists so as not to take away the strength of the joist. When you notch the joist you now make it weaker because it’s smaller.
If the joists were large enough would not the notches be sufficient? Years ago, over designing was common as they did not design for purpose and cheapness.
As my dad used to say sweating the pipe, referring to the joints that had to be cleaned before soddering it together. My dad used a piece of white bread during the soldering to make sure the soder got into each crevis in the joints to seal them together. Our boiler was also the same unit that heated the entire 5bedroom 3 bath house on natural gas, with a seperate heat exchange for additional hot water and the tank was just used for storage. It was dubbed Nomad from Star trek because of the shape of it. When it came to replacing wiring? The term we use in the states is snaking it. because your tying and old piece of wire that is being removed to the new piece so as to not damage the walls or floors and you just pull it until you see the new wire and pull about 6 inches out and leave it untle your ready to put the outlets on.
Thank you so much for this episode - where else can you learn a bit about plumbing and electrical work in a restoration of this kind? I love the faucet you chose for the bathroom, AND I'm over the moon that you may be able to use vintage a tub and sink to use in the project. Not only will this save money, but will make the renovation so much more characterful! Just what you want in a vacation cottage! Bravo on your approach to working on this sweet, sweet cottage!
It's great to see into the depth of this renovation. No doubt this will be epic! Does that vine on the back of the house crawl inside or under the roofing? What is it? Honeysuckle, Wisteria? ??
I don’t fill the sink with water when I wash my face. I just cup the water in my hands from the tap. And then I wet my facecloth from the right temp from the centre tap. I do not like separate hot and cold taps. I clean my teeth with warm water running from the one tap too.
Maybe you could just expose pieces of the brick for architectural detail...Kind of like how they show off lime/mortar sections on the rock wall areas...Just a bit of added detail??
This is my next chapter; moving to UK, from Maui, to bring Regenerative Farming Community Design, Permaculture Principles and Ethics in action, so all life can live in harmony, in abundance, beauty and resilient joyful peace....I am so happy to find your farm, activities and connections; so many people already hold my vision dear, and are working on it. I am grateful to learn of your project, and hope to empower people all over The UK, and Ireland, and Scotland, and Wales, and Orkney, and Shetland, and The Hebrides to unite in this FUN!!!!! It is so beautiful, and I trust there is a place for all who want to farm to farm regeneratively, as we are born to do. Bless you ALL. Aloha, Claire Anderson Graham Kellerman (Nature Clan net )
Don’t know if it would be worth the time, but a quick inventory of all the bits and pieces you’ve saved and where they’re located might be a help. Not just for y’all but for the next generation......
@@MappertonLive love it! Yes, the baby birds will be grown and gone, but remember they’ll come back to make another nest of their own. Tricky to redirect them to build a nest somewhere else. Maybe build them bird houses? Just a thought.
@@roccoravello4738 If the vegetation is too reduced then they'll usually find another spot for their nests. And as you can see from the videos there are plenty of nooks, crannies and hideyholes in the surrounding landscape for them to find somewhere new! They're very adaptable, generally speaking.
Its actually illegal to chop down nesting areas while the nests are in use. And unfortunately the drought would prevent fresh plants having a fair chance.
Way too cold here to have water pipes outside - remember how low the tempertures get here in Winter, water freezes! There's very good buiding safety regulations in the UK - no danger from water and electrics inside.
Julie, you must expose that chimney brick before proceeding. It would be more tedious and difficult down the line. It's just way to beautiful to leave covered by wall board. Why would it be "so" expensive to uncover, cleanup, and detail?? I'm I missing something? While work goes on inside, someone desperately needs to start working on the outside flowered ivy on the cottage walls. It's stunning, but a good shape and trim, while the weather is good, is wontedly requested.
There are some very different approaches to silent / not silent ls in American English. A few American accents, for example, pronounce the l in yolk, walk, folk etc. It sounds *so* strange to a British person!
Enjoy watching the transformation....looks great so far.PLEASE CUT DOWN SOME OF THE EXTERIOR "VEGETATION" ON THE FRONT...trim it back so we can see the "bones" of the face of the cottage, ok? Keep up the good work...
I hate pedestal sinks in the bathroom! Hate!!! Only a proper vanity will do. Need to put down my glasses & watch while in the shower (or even washing face), need space for all the doodads to use (no way the Listerine bottle is ever going to fit in any cabinet above the sink), soap dish, and I like a candle, too. If I used makeup, heaven help me. Don't forget electrical outlets for recharging toothbrush, hair dryer & such. In the cabinet go spare rolls of tissue, cleaning supplies, and all the rest of that "stuff" - immediately to hand, but out of sight. For hotels, I love the long vanity counters to put out exactly what I'll need, and collect every last bit when I pack up to leave.
I have never heard anyone pronounce soder with an l in the word. I Googled it and it is soder, souder, and solder. This is a prime example of why I HATE spelling!!
He corrected your pronunciation, but that's how we say soldering in the US. It looks so cute.
and in Canada.
hmmm.... I've always heard it pronounced it with silent L. I'm native So CA. maybe that's the diff? curious
Canada silent l
Putting all the rooms with water on separate lines and shut off valves is a BRILLIANT idea.
Agree ! Wish I could have thought of that for my own house. Makes so much sense.
@@roccoravello4738 it totally does, because having all the water turned off is a pain
For older people having power points around waist height or just below is easier to reach than power points nearer to the floor.
I prefer a sink with water mixed in the spout. Separate hot and cold spouts are not easy to use. I'm also into cottage living and have a house from 1894 that we restored and renovated. It's cozy and has good plumbing, electricals, no dishwasher, wood kitchen counters, pine floors. Good luck, Julie!
I agree. This is one case where I don't think we should stick to traditional ways. Using water that is mixed in the spout doesn't leave you running the water so long as you attempt to get the temperature you desire.
I don't think I'd like the hot and cold separate. I've really never understood why anyone would like those. But, I guess some do.
I agree. I had on old house that had separate facets and it was difficult to use. So exciting to see the transformation.
I totally agree
"Soldering", "marauders", what fun listening to variations in pronunciation. As an architect and historic preservationist, it's fun to watch the work. Cheers-
Julie in the US we totally pronounce it "Soddering" the L is silent. Love seeing the pogress!

I’m with your pronunciation of “soldering”‼️It’s the American pronunciation 😘👍
I am moving to the UK, and will have SO many words to re-learn like soldering, instead of saying "SAW-dering. Yikes.
Me too!
Yes it is sah-dring or sah-during In the US. I always say we’re very phonetical speakers but in this instance, it appears we would be wrong by not having the “l” in there.

In recently usage, people are now pronouncing the "t" in 'often', however when I was growing up in the 50's the "t" was silent as in "ofen".
@Joan In Florida Thank you!! I was just thinking this! It’s definitely a Californian influence, people like Kim Kardashian that pronounce everything slowly and excruciatingly drawn out, it honestly makes them sound stupid instead of intentional. So obnoxious!
I like Julie. She’s intelligent and always has good questions. She’s a good rep from Chicago and an asset to Mapperton. She and Luke make a great team.
I picture the outside going towards the door with roses and a small beautiful english garden - true fairy tale looking house!
I hope you went with a mixer tap instead of a hot and cold tap. I've lived in UK and the cold tap can issue *freezing* water and the hot tap gives you very hot water. It's nice to have warm water when you want it.

I want to live there. It's going to be so quaint and modern up-to-date adorable when Julie is done.
Julie: your pronunciation of "soldering" was perfect in American English this is coming from the daughter, wife, and mother of a plumber 😊
But why do you miss out the 'l'?! It's not 'sodering' but 'soLdering.
@@sallyannc3176 Why do you not pronounce the 'l' in would? Or do the Brits say it that way?
@@lynda.grace.14 why 'live' is [liv] while 'five' is [faiv] 🙂

Love your enthusiasm and willingness to get involved in all parts of renovation!!
Maybe a budget option for exposing the bricks near the fireplace wod be to cut a section out over the mantel and frame it with some picture frame.
Wow!!!!! Everything looks amazing! Julie, you were US pronouncing soldering which is correct to all of us American😊
Can’t wait to see the bathroom fixtures.

How cute the way Gus pronounced soldering, I know how to install a toilet if I were there I could help with that . The cottage looks amazing so far!
"pronounced soldering" What? You mean properly?
It is a straightforward word, and Gus pronounced it correctly, albeit with his local accent. It was Julie who hadn't heard it before and couldn't get her tongue around it. lol
@@paulybarr Americans pronounced Solder as Soder. So, Julie pronounced it as Americans pronounced it.
@@eddiegaltek pronounced more like “sauder” in the States … at least down south.☺️
ETA the Brits are no doubt more correct on this one, LOL.

Oh I love this new project - it makes me so excited!!!
I love seeing Gus and Ollie! It's really interesting to learn what they are doing in the cottage. Love from Vermont

Rule of thumb - if building new or renovating its good to put in twice as many power points as you think is necessary!!👍🏼
Really nice video. Good progress on the cottage . It's going to look fabulous! Bravo,Julie.
It’s looking great! Such a lovely cottage! ❤️😊
It's adorable. Excited about the update.
I love that monster drill bit that Ollie is using. I was wondering how they got those holes/channels in the walls.
Loving watching the cottage coming back to life.

Looks like fun. I'm itching to see what you do with the exterior and grounds.
Lever & mixer taps more practical!
Fascinating and informative. So glad you are building things well. I would feel very safe and comfortable visiting in your cottage.
It looks like my dollhouse, adorable
Thanks Julie for not using the OMG Ian xx
I know a tool that can save a lot of money. The tool is called Megohmmeter and helps decide whether electric wiring really needs to be replaced. 🙂

From January 2023! Soon!
Separate hot/cold water taps aren’t the best idea. Water needs to be mixed to avoid a burn or freeze on your hands
Just my opinion

Oh my, British ring circuits. Never understood that. Had weird wiring when I lived in the UK. The house never caught fire however.
I'm looking forward to the Grand Opening. Hello from Arkansas🐗
Can you have Kirsten and Joerg be the first guests at the cottage? I discovered them through you and I would love to see them again on your channel.
Absolutely!
wooden loo seats are essential as you don't freeze your butt off.
@Stephen Chrisco. I think the cylinder is where the hot water is stored after its been heated by the oil boiler.
I'm a huge supporter, and fan of traditional, and vintage. Especially in an English cottage. Great job, Julie.
Oh and maybe to be able to use the sink and tub! Nice!
It's great to see into the depth of this renovation. No doubt this will be epic! Does that vine on the back of the house crawl inside or under the roofing? What is it? Honeysuckle, Wisteria? ??

Theres a drought at the moment. Dont mention running taps!!!👀
I know. Running the tap should be a no-no. I use a liquid face cleanser too. I try not to run the tap excessively.
need Olly here in Großgmain/Austria ;-) he's perfect
Coming along nicely Julie!!!

Yay! I just love these! I also like that choice of music.
Me too. It has a kind of fun, adventure type feeling.
I was thinking the same thing , Julie said soldering like an American.
What’s going on with Italy house. I always look forward to seeing that but there has been nothing for a while.
Julie's in Italy now - filming for her TH-cam channel. Hurray!

Great idea!
The Cottage House is as good as the pool series
Balanced supply, i.e. you dont get to hear screams of pain from the person in the shower when someone flushes the toilet!
Well,very good lesson on plumbing which helped with my reno knowledge. Is the cottage on mains water or is that a dumb question?
Landscape?Hats off to your electrician
My southern children don’t understand the British over pronunciation in many words. I love it.
Definitely DO NOT have separate hot and cold water taps…. Pain in the ….!!
Different electrical codes than here in the US.
Definitely not a mixer tap. Just install a nice shiny sink plug. I think mixer taps waste water.
I’m surprised you haven’t clean the landscaping first. Maybe will be last? It will look fantastic!

Just wondering why you chose to install copper plumbing instead of Pex?
In the UK you must use copper pipes for plumbing - good buidling regs.
