I think you may want to put a protective layer of , say, tar paper between the concrete and the joist end to avoid more rot. Unless the wood is pressure treated or painted. Nice vid.
Great video, I learnt so much and I appreciate how you don’t bang on about useless stuff
You crack me up! “It’s redundant!” Keep up the good vibes!
Great job Joel! I love the in-depth instruction and advice you give in your videos. Especially the advice you gave today to not just patch the problem you find, but fully fix it. 👌🏻
It's the best advice I was ever given, now I am passing it on.
Joel you are awesome.... I could watch this stuff all day long.
I am looking at opening up the floor of an old cabin built on land and the floor is heaving and your video was immensely helpful. Thank you for sharing.
I love how Joel always explains every step but always recommends what’s best keep up all your hard work can’t wait to see the final look of the home it’s gonna look AMAZING 😉
There is definitely something about the way Joel explains things that is not superfluous. I’m enjoying learning from all of these videos. We just purchased our first home last summer and I’m itching to work on more than just the typical hanging of pictures and painting of walls. The knowledge that you are sharing here Joel is giving me a lot of confidence to just get at it.
Would love to see more of these practical home remodel videos as well as any wisdom you can share about lawn care and exterior maintenance.
Thank you!
Great advice. I love the blooper moments on the ends of your videos.
You input in going about how to fix damaged properties is tremendously great, your honesty is greatly appreciate. By accident I came across your video clips, I am in the similar place right now trying to fix my damaged joints in the crawl space. Thank you kindly my friend, very best regards to you 🙏🙏🙏
Glad I could help.
Must be the best channel on TH-cam. I watch your family vlogs too. Keep up the good work
Awesome advice, really appreciate how thorough you are and the good ideas you include.
You're very thorough with explaining. I can't wait to see the finished product.
How lucky you are to have the ability and the knowledge to be able to fix and repair the floors I live in a old home and my bathroom floors needs to be fixed so bad I wish I had your talent love your videos Joel 🏚🔨✨🏡
My husband and I are looking at buying our first home. He is a timber joiner and I've really been loving listening to his work and watching him in his element but I want to understand more so I can contribute better to conversations on what he enjoys. Thanks so much for these videos! They are super enjoyable, helpful, and will definitely be useful for us as we go into buying a fixer-upper :P
Love the outtakes. Never take one's self too seriously. Great content. Thanks. Gonna have to being doing some major joist work on a 80 year old house we bought. I had to remove two layers of hardwood planking.
Our house is 84 yrs old and need to replace 3 in a bedroom
I’m soo excited to see how the house is gonna turn out 👌
This was an excellent subject to bring up, Joel. Never knew any of this. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us. God Bless.
Thank you for sharing. The only thing you forgot is to put building paper between wood and concrete. Rule of thumb - concrete should never touch wood. Great vid.
Awesome video. I have a old 140 year old manor house that has a huge main floor beam and joists that are rotten.
I love your vids
Joel is a sweet heart❤️
FriYAY!!!! Joel posted...best day EVER!
I just want to thank you for you time with these videos and explaining things so well even for those that have no idea about wood work etc. Me and my partner as looking at purchasing a house which needs a lot of work done to it and these are helping for us to know for knowledge and to know we can come back to them at later dates when starting projects are amazing and for a come novice which I am your explanations are perfect for me
Great explanation, thank you!
Thanks for another great video!
Great to know!!! I'm trying to remember all of this and learn every single thing! My husband will also watch when he gets home!
I am breaking the project down into playlist for quick reference. Thanks for watching.
I am loving your new channel, it's especially encouraging to see the lil hiccups at the end (b/c I know every job we do has its fair share of set backs and it's nice to know we're not alone. The struggle is real) You've inspired me to try and open up a load baring wall we've been thinking about for yrs and I feel confident we can handle it when the time comes. It'll be in the future tho; you know, one day when we get the fundage lol Thank you again for your channel. It's inspiring, and well, it just makes my heart happy lol You're killin it...
Long-distance highfive from Savannah✋ We love u Keep up the good work -Kris 🤟
Following your directions appreciate the tips
Love you so much from traverse City Michigan 💕
Joel these videos are very well done & extreamly informative! You are doing a great job keep them coming.
Excellent video,very informative and great to follow.thank you for explaining as you go along.
Great job
The potato cellar sounds cool. I considered buying an 1800s house that was a potato house and used for potato storage. All I have now is a cold room and a summer kitchen.
Just ‘found’ your channel, and after watching a few videos, I have Subscribed! Mad skills with that rear handle saw, cutting out that blocking! 👍👍👍 I wish you and yours well going forward, and stay safe and Healthy! 👍👍👍👍👍👍😁✌🏻🇺🇸
Nice work!
Your videos are great! But I appreciate the honesty in showing your bloopers at the end. Life isn't perfect and neither is building/remodeling. Great work!
I’ve recently found your family channel within the past month! I’ve also been enjoying all the vlogs and your Today’s Task informative videos. You and your family are so great! Love from Canada!
Great video. Thank you
Well done man, you navigated me vocally during your video.. Classic keep it up. I’m Irish and hearing your proper American accent had me smiling and laughing respectfully. Goodstuff boss keep it up!
That is awesome.
My heritage is part Irish, the Littles.
@@TodaysTask Classic! Do you know what part of Ireland your family came from? My family are from Dublin and mothers side great grandfather came from black Forrest in Germany 🇩🇪
Good job! You make it look easy...
Shouldn't pressure treated wood be against the concrete?
Never thought I would enjoy learning how to level and replace floor boards. Hey if its Joel Hoellein, its sure easy on they eye, I can hear Bonnie saying Oh Mr Hoellein!!!
I’m a woman and I love your videos lol
On your vlog channel you linked your pillow one time that you LOVE. Can you please give me the info again?
Great vid sir. I like the fact you show your bloopers lol. Question for ya, saggy floor in hallway and by bathroom door jamb, suggestions?
Thank you I have a few joist to remove and reinstall a new joist
I’m excited to see the end results and see just how amazing he is doing with this
I love these Reno videos!!
You did a brilliant job x
thank you
Im not a construction worker but i love Joel so yeah ill watch him anytime😍
Our basment is gutted right now because our washer didn't turn its self off and it flooded.🤦♀️ but its crazy how much goes into fixing a house i don't think i would be able to flip houses like you guys do just my basement right now gives me anxiety.
I don’t know anything about what Joel is doing and will never need it but I love to see the progress in the house lol
Great job!
Great info. Joel we are having our floor in our bathrm. fix next week!! Keep up the great job !!! Loving your channel ! : - )
Bro i needed these tips thank you.......... :)
Solid Video! Thanks a bunch in advance, might need to do some digging soon :)
Love these videosi look forward to them every week. I wish you uploaded more often. 😁😁😁😁
Great video! Thanks for sharing this great information
These are awesome videos, thank you!!😃🤩
You have made such great progress on this house and you can really see the labor you are putting in. In regards to the positive Meth testing have you found any thing that you have to specially dispose off or have a specialized team come to remove. In today’s vlog “seven years bad luck” was there drug paraphernalia (syringes) in the dump trailer? I was curious as how you would go in removing such items? Anyway love the work you are doing, we are currently renovating our laundry and your videos keep us inspired.
Loved learning some new things in your video! I thought I was subscribed and thought it was weird you weren't posting .I came over and I wasnt subscribed any more.. so weird
I wish I could hire you because I know that it would be done right.
Thank you! Do you have any video showing the original floor and house demo? I am going to help with a DIY 1000 sq ft ranch with a 3 bdrm and 1 bath demo. The floors are sagging and this will be our first time fling this.
Love the bloopers!!!
I’m literally not interested AT ALL in today’s task - I just love watching you Joel!!!! 😂😂😂
Thanks for the bloopers, we’re all human.
Id water proof the wood where the plumbing is going over.. hiden tiny drops over long periods can cause serious damage.
keep showing us your vlogs
lol love the end montage
great video!
That’s great.
What about sagging in multiple room and running through the center of the house? The house I just bought has moisture damage and the floors are much worse than I realized and I am hoping I'm not looking at a $20k repair.
They are totally fixable, you will need to build temporary walls to support while replacing the bad joists.
I would call a professional for a bid.
Screws have good hold but less shear load compared to a nail... the nail never snaps it only bends but the screw is more brittle and snaps under shearing loads.
Great video. Gives me hope. Now, where do I find someone who can do this? lol
Hello from SC, I’m a single mom and I have inherited the family home built in early 70’s. I do have weakness in my hall which is my center joists. It’s a very simple build. The house is very low to ground, if I had to do this on my own what would ya suggest first? I’m thinking of going in through top floor
Good Job !
You think the knobs on that hurricane strap will interfere with the laying the floor down?
Joel you are a rock star 😍😍
Can you also put what type of nails you used as well?
Would these pass inspection?
lol love the bloopers.
интересный фундамент, плинтус не холодный? или он снаружи хорошо утеплен от промерзания?
how do you space 4 screws 2 inches apart on an 8 inch wide board? Im pretty sure i only saw you drill in 3. You COULD drill screws at 1, 3, 5 and 7 inches but I think i saw you start at 2 inches and then only put in 3 screws.
The reason i felt the need to call this out is because you instructed the viewers twice that you need 4 screws or nails per 8 inch board and then you only put in 3 both times. I dont understand how you can do that 2 times and not catch it. All the 8 inch boards you install seem to have 3 per when i rewatch it closely.
1,3,5,7 spacing is correct, I may not have shown all 4 screws but they are there. Great catch.
Subscribed!!!
I see your joists are attached to another joist on the other side if the house. Is this normal? Mine are single boards the width of the house so there's no "connecting" to another board.
Housing on the Army bases does a lot of patch jobs 😒 this just proves it!
Hey Joel, thanks for the subfloor video. How do you edit your videos?
I use Final Cut Pro.
What does code say about blocking between floor joists?
I know there was blocking in between all the joists about 8ft into the board lengths. It is very critical, your joists can rack without it.
What type of joist did you buy? What is the size, please if you have a link. Thank you!
What where the screws you talked about
About to tear up and toss ALL My 100+ year old floor boards to level the room. Is it ok to use 2x4s to sister? I don't want to add too much weight to this ancient rowhouse... i have two floors I have to do.
i need to replace a floor joist or two in my house. Walls are already up and everything. Do I need to be worried that the house will fall if I take out one joist, and then replace over an hour's time?
It depends on the joist, I would put up some supports around it if it is holding up walls. with extra support you should be good.
What length screws did you use
🤣🤣🤣🤣brain muscle big ,Check 👍🏻❤️
Hi, can you replace them without removing the floor? Like from the crawl space
It is possible, but will make the project a lot harder.
So do you get to write this home purchase off as a expense for your TH-cam Channel?
I love your today's tasks. I have been watching Bonnie hoellein since it started. Which kiddo can I have. Jk
Wish my landlord followed that advice. He is more of a this will hold it for now type.
Bonnie is lucky to have you in her life!!💋
