I cannot work out for the life of me why this channel doesn't have way more subscribers. Honest talented content, no music and no explaining every step of the job. Just a very talented guy doing his 'multiple' things excellently.
He doesn't do clickbait titles and screenshots. That's probably the biggest reason he doesn't get more subscribers. TH-cam prioritizes recommending videos like that over quality ones like these. It's infuriating.
TH-cam punishes channels that don't publish weekly or more often. Which means long form, meaningful content like this is disincentived, which is a literal shame.
He doesn’t have what I call a “Google induced ego” = hoodwink as many to subscribe to your channel + automatically click “like”, remind the [hoodwinked] viewers through out the video itself ~ as infernal “pop-ups” edited into the video/make stickers to put on things/equipment seen in the footage. And if enough viewers have been [hoodwinked] Google and TH-cam will reward the channel with a golden play button so they can boast of how many have been duped 😡. And with 💰; these videos with “acute ego problems” will be infested with adverts [cashcows] and sponsors to fuel Google’s corporate greed
Given the age of the house, I'd hardly file "using plastic just about everywhere possible" under the "overdoing" or "doing it right" column. This was a job with a budget, clearly. I'd say adequate, but a trifle sad given the skills he obviously has.
I always enjoy watching your videos. They are so meditative and calming. No talking, no annoying music, just a video, with original sound and a little text. Keep it up and keep your style.
I noticed that you had several nice lumps of green moss on the roof tiles. Here in the States I’ve volunteered at a arboretum donated by several old-money estates. These homes had similar tile roof structures that used copper instead of lead flashing. Additionally, copper was used as ridge cap material, as well as gutters and downspouts. All copper elements sported a deep green patina. After several inquiries into their use of copper I was “educated” that copper keeps moss and other plants from growing on roof by leaching copper sulfate on the roof during rain. My mother’s house was located in a shaded woods area and her roof supported an annual colony of mosses that returned after their forced removal. I planned to get a copper ridge cap for her home until I discovered how expensive copper foil was. Not wanting to completely give up the idea a got a several rolls of pennies; the only copper coated coin in US currency. I slid an individual penny under the lower edge of each asphalt shingle along the top 4 rows of shingles. For less than $2 I eliminated the moss once and forever. Perhaps if there are still copper coins in your currency you could add them to your roof for moss mitigation. Cheers
I never get tired of watching Russ work. His attention to detail and the quality of his work is impeccable. It never ceases to amaze me the knowledge of skill he has in so many areas. I hate to see his videos end !
So good to see a person not take the path of least resistance, as do so many tradespeople do today. This video was quite a learning experience. Thank you for making these videos.
What about a Steamstopp (Dampfbremse) between the insulatio an the plaster? Because the steam out of the kitchen can set down in the insulation. (Sorry for ma bad english)
@@gudrunasche9124 Agree..! The most steam/moist come from indside and will go into the insolation and create mould.! Otherwise it was very fine building the roof tight..😊
Russ that was amazing. Your house is going to look so good and it's going to look original and not be falling down around your ears. This was lovely to look at. Champion!
@@derschwartzadder Then why don't you pony up the money so he can afford cast iron fittings. And the plastic used when up DOES look like the cast iron.
Even though I live in The United States, I still enjoy and admire your matriculate way of remodeling your house in your country. I also enjoy seeing how you manage to create ways to get things done by working by yourself like I do. Thanks very much for sharing your skills.
You have such an amazing way of making your highly skilled work look so straight forward! I renovated a 1920s house in North Yorkshire a few years ago and can sympathise with all the weirdness you find and uncover during the work Hope your condensate pipe doesn’t freeze - that’s been the bane of my life with this type of boiler (on oil now) As always, Thanks for sharing 😊
Having watched many of your videoed projects, I can say that you are truly a versatile one-man construction company with no irritating music, non-stop talking, or intrusive commercials. Thank you.
Every single time I watch you work your magic I am awestruck! Your craftsmanship and good humour are so enjoyable to watch. I’m always disappointed when your videos/projects end. Thank you for going to the extra work of filming it for us to enjoy.
Mate, I've been watching you for years and it so strange to laugh at your jokes and have NEVER heard your voice. I feel like its too late now - you must never reveal the sound of the New Yorkshire Workshopman :) Also - amazing work, I really appreciate your craftsmanship and the different types of projects you show on the channel. -Big fan from Chicago
The more I watch this man work the more I am convinced that, when the waters rise to threaten us and we need an ark, I want this man to build it. The End.
Not only amazed at the project you are solo on, but that you also have to move the camera for various shots of the work! Its like 2x the work which is already difficult...and being on a roof!
Yay! I'm looking forward to the kitchen videos. Ever since your house tour video I've been waiting patiently 😊 i love watching cause it's here in England, you're restoring it, adding you and your wife's personal taste and showing exactly what you're doing all shot in a nice calm way. No bam bam bam voice overs 😅 your family are so cute watching out the window, seeing daddy on the roof 😂
Really nice! Got so much to learn again 🎉 It looks so easy, but to get everything off the roof and back up again is a challenge for body and mind alone😅 I can only work alone, or i get really nervous and stressed out so i can really appreciate your work and the struggles that come with that👍😏
Every single time I watch one of your vids. I keep thinking ‘is there anything that you cannot do’. Honestly I do think your a dying breed of people who have an inbuilt aptitude for anything practical. Fecking amazing 😮
I am a sheet metal worker and roofer from Germany. I always find it fascinating how other countries cover their roofs. I'm sure your roof is tight. But it wouldn't work in Germany. Especially with the flat roof pitch, which I now estimate to be 20°, many of your solutions are experimental. But if it works, then it works

“Solid as a frozen banana “, love it! Really enjoy watching you turn this old heap into a beautiful home. But, maybe get a better scaffolding? Just a thought. 😊
I’m always amazed at your range of skills; the renovated roof and skylight look great and I can’t imagine a drop of rain getting in anywhere. Thanks for another fascinating video.
Holy feck, what an amazing amount of work … and skill in tackling all of this!! Very well done!! And thank you so much for sharing this journey and glad the kids didn’t get any laughing moments from dad! 😮😮
I have only just found this channel, his work is fantastic, now I'll go back and binge watch all his previous work, you can't beat an excellent worker.
A fascinating journey as always, Russ. I find it striking that I don't have the patience to watch most movies through to the end and yet am riveted by your videos. Bravo! By the way, I love your hat! Reminds me of my beloved Tilley 🙂
Hi sir. interesting approach to making a skylight as a pose to an off the shelf model , but you have managed to achieve a frameless look which is definitely not easy . Also making it non opening is a good idea , as a shallow pitch roof won’t shed the water if it rains when open . But knowing how you plan things before hand , you would have covered that possibility . I like your method of double batons under the tiles , as again on a low angle roof water can indeed find its way in . So once again another stunning restoration project by your good self . The only problem I have is you do tend to talk to much on your videos 😂😂😂 sorry couldn’t resist that one bless you. Best wishes and kind regards as always 👍👍👍
Hi! I'm from Russia. I really liked how the problem of tightness between the wall and the roof was solved in the old house with the help of lead sheets, which are embedded in the wall with one side. I have never seen such a thing in Russia.
I run a roofing business in Barnsley and i can honestly say that i would have done very little differently. Absolutely fabulous attention to detail. Thanks for taking the time to film it. I'll bet all the setting up of cameras to get the best angles makes it take a lot longer....!! Bravo 👏
Q.I was surprised that you did not install a vapour barrier around the light well, in Alberta that is a must due temperature fluctuation, but still that was a superb reconstruction in of spite of my comment Looking forward to more of posts 🎉
You are an amazing craftsman and I’m blown away by your restoration. I was surprised that you needed additional roof tiles. I assumed that there would have been extras from the void created by the window. Wishing you and your family a blessed week filled with gentle seasonally appropriate weather and restful evenings together. Peace
I don't know about anybody else but when I see a new video in my subs list, I make a nice cup of tea and settle down knowing that I am going to be in awe of the craftmanship on show.
I love the serenity of your place, it appears very calm and beautiful. I watch your videos to relax, when I find time. Thanks for sharing your renovation progress!
Great DIY job, better than most roofing contractors. I am not a fan of flashband, but it did the job. The lap on the tiles was a bit tight, but the original roof felt looked dry so should be good. Top job.
Epic work! Inspiring too - thanks for chronicalling this. We had the same vent on our cooker but after a few years the louvres would blow in the wind and squeak all day so we went to a simple downward facing metal wedge shaped vent, never a problem since and I think this would suit your house better. The white plastic does age in the sun.
A man from the council will soon be along to tell you how you contravened planning regs and it must be torn down completely, not just fixed. Joking. Awesome work as always, Mr. NYW
Russ, I'm sure there are many traders out there saying 'this guy is GOOD!!!' and in so many things he does!. How do you achieve so many skills at such a young? age?. Hats off to you Ru8ss and love the 'no no-nonsense format of your Vid's. DON'T STOP!!. God bless you and your family!.
I love youtube, and it's because of creators like you. I have watched almost all of your videos and I am always amazed at your skill set. So it's a huge thank you from me. It's a ball ache filming every step of the way, with angles etc .. but you do it so well. Am just about to embark on big house resto and I wish you were my best mate and lived in Herefordshire 😅. Thank you for all your content. 👍
Russ, just wow. So much time and effort you put into making this content for us to enjoy. Everybody is right, no music, no talking just skill. My brother and father both joiners and carpenters alike. I love watching and helping them do this kind of stuff, they are so meticulous with fine detailing it's mesmerising watching them. All the best 👍🏻
The work you do is extraordinary. The 'commentary' is EPIC. I concur with the thoughts of others... I can't imagine how you don't have at least twice as many subscribers.
Another brilliant video! A hell of a project to tackle single handed, I take my hat off. A bit disconcerting in the new downspout shots where the whole side of the house seemed to moving back and forth while the scaffolding stood still!
Phenomenal work as always, I am ashamed I've ever done any work when I compare the standards you uphold, and those that I manage to achieve. I'm just on the cusp of finding your abilities and work ethic inspirational, rather than demoralising! I manage to learn something from every video of yours I've watched, which I'll continue to try and emulate in my own work for my own clients.
This man is a genius, what a craftsman. He can do anything with those hands. He's one of the best I've seen, he's up there with Oliver Bradshaw and Gid Joiner, 👍😁🔨🇮🇪
This guy is a beast! He is so hard working, ingenious and massively talented. Hope someone is taking care of him; making him lunch and cooking a nice hot meal at the end of the day would not be amiss! Much admiration.👋👋👋👋
I've got to say, tour skill set amazes me every video. You have such a breadth of knowledge and it never fails to turn out Beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
Is there any limit to this man's ability to create, invent, fixture, renovate and repair? I swear we'll next see him hand forging a specialized saw blade from iron ore he mined in his back yard. Amazing.
Refreshing creativity, punctuality and endless patience. 👌👌👌👌 As always. Really good to watch. Just a note: There's a chance that the water from the big roof will overflow. The lower gutter could have been made with a larger cross section. 🙂🙂🙂🙂
This is one of those jobs that one just puts off again and again. I had a 300 year old house near Bath and the only time I ventured near the roof was when there was scaffolding along the main wall up to the roof level.
I cannot work out for the life of me why this channel doesn't have way more subscribers. Honest talented content, no music and no explaining every step of the job. Just a very talented guy doing his 'multiple' things excellently.

Also, his content requires viewers to actually engage and pay attention to the video; a lot of people nowadays can't do that
You are the epitome of ‘If a job’s worth doing…’!
Yes! You would think he was going to live under it.
Properly.....using plastic wall plugs and screws as anchors for scaffolding you consider proper? Remind me to never work with either of you.
Given the age of the house, I'd hardly file "using plastic just about everywhere possible" under the "overdoing" or "doing it right" column. This was a job with a budget, clearly. I'd say adequate, but a trifle sad given the skills he obviously has.

All the pre-1992 1 and 2 pence coins are 97% copper so would work well for that!

Another brilliant watch! Thanks for making my sunday morning feel so constructive. 👌
Russ, just wow.
So much time and effort you put into making this content for us to enjoy.
Everybody is right, no music, no talking just skill.
My brother and father both joiners and carpenters alike.
I love watching and helping them do this kind of stuff, they are so meticulous with fine detailing it's mesmerising watching them.
All the best
👍🏻
Astonishing set of skills in just one person! Even roofing, where I always suck at...
Great job!
👍👍👍
Wonderful work. I had a laugh at the subtitles, nice to see the sense of humour along with the skill set.
The work you do is extraordinary. The 'commentary' is EPIC. I concur with the thoughts of others... I can't imagine how you don't have at least twice as many subscribers.
I enjoy your vids. no talking straight to work and your way of doing the job. Totally amazed at your digital skills and knowledge.
Another brilliant video! A hell of a project to tackle single handed, I take my hat off. A bit disconcerting in the new downspout shots where the whole side of the house seemed to moving back and forth while the scaffolding stood still!
Phenomenal work as always, I am ashamed I've ever done any work when I compare the standards you uphold, and those that I manage to achieve. I'm just on the cusp of finding your abilities and work ethic inspirational, rather than demoralising! I manage to learn something from every video of yours I've watched, which I'll continue to try and emulate in my own work for my own clients.
This man is a genius, what a craftsman. He can do anything with those hands. He's one of the best I've seen, he's up there with Oliver Bradshaw and Gid Joiner, 👍😁🔨🇮🇪
This guy is a beast! He is so hard working, ingenious and massively talented. Hope someone is taking care of him; making him lunch and cooking a nice hot meal at the end of the day would not be amiss! Much admiration.👋👋👋👋
Amazing work, any other roofer might not take such care and attention to detail 👍
I love your work ,Keep it coming,Thank you and hope you're family are all well.☝
I've got to say, tour skill set amazes me every video. You have such a breadth of knowledge and it never fails to turn out Beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
Is there any limit to this man's ability to create, invent, fixture, renovate and repair? I swear we'll next see him hand forging a specialized saw blade from iron ore he mined in his back yard. Amazing.
You remind me so much of me, except you are *actually* an expert at absolutely everything.
Refreshing creativity, punctuality and endless patience. 👌👌👌👌 As always. Really good to watch. Just a note: There's a chance that the water from the big roof will overflow. The lower gutter could have been made with a larger cross section. 🙂🙂🙂🙂
This is one of those jobs that one just puts off again and again. I had a 300 year old house near Bath and the only time I ventured near the roof was when there was scaffolding along the main wall up to the roof level.
I am speechless 🤐 a one man show 👍 thumb up of course ... best wishes from Germany
Outstanding as always with New yorkshire workshop!
Your girls are precious 🤗💕🇺🇸
