New Roof On The Derelict Irish Cottage!

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 18 ต.ค. 2024
- Hi, we are Bec, Sam, Isabella & Euan. After selling our house in the UK & travelling Europe in a motorhome for 10 months, we have bought a derelict stone cottage in Ireland. We are keen to try and live an off grid life, free from debt whilst bringing the farm back to its former glory. We are doing this on a very tight budget and plan on doing the work ourselves.
Please follow along on our journey...we need all the support we can get.

Craftsmen in all their splendour…what a bloody milestone..made me feel quite emotional. Waking up on a Misty morning and seeing the structure rise like a phoenix must be an exhilarating feeling for you all…..sending much love to a family that has worked tirelessly and realising their intentions are reaping the benefits and it couldn’t happen to a nicer family. ❤
Well said.
Wow! In a world full of ‘ready made’ how refreshing it is to see tradesmen using skills to build from scratch! Wonderful video! ❤❤❤❤
Glad you enjoyed it!
How did I get so hooked on this? I get so excited when I see a new video has dropped. Great work on the house and excellent editing, Bec. ❤
Seeing this house being brought back to life is amazing! I can see it getting happier and happier. You guys were meant for this house. I can't wait to see it become your home xx
I have been following since ye bought the place. The sheer grit and determination. Incredible.
Omg I'm so excited to see the roof progress, hats of to the 2 friends, nice for Sam to have some banter, and company,
And I see I'm not alone, look at the views going up and up in the first hour,
Fantastic.
Oh wow! I got goosebumps. It's amazing what a skilled team can achieve in a short space of time. Congrats
What champs! I'm counting the days to Wednesday now.......woohoo!!
What a dynamic team .I for one cannot wait for the grants man that came to see it first day for his reaction. I have no doubt in my mind he will be stunned. Not alone have you as a family achieved so much work on your home also how tidy you are keeping all the yard and land. I am in awe of you all. God bless you all xxxx ❤
"I rise "
Here Ye ! Here Ye!
"Today's the Day"
"The stays and corset frame. " Begone!
A good dry day on a level deck.
"Lets raise the roof
Oh what the heck"!
Ridge Beam bolted and wall plates layed,
Chimney pierced and location stayed.
The banter on the progress discussed,
Agreement and thoroughness a must.
"I rise " the Spirit says
"My Garments are a making"
"I rise "
"No time for wasting"
"I rise"
The winds a blowing.
Careful now on the to and frowing,
New fabrics will adorn me,
no longer will they scorn me,
on my disshevelled state.
"I rise'
and Thank you .
For this my rebirth.
Whoa! That was Epic! Rebecca the pointing looks so good!
It was amazing to see upstairs without any rafters - wide open view! I'm so glad that Sam had some help with the roof - WOW, what a job. Much appreciation from across the pond. :)
Us too! No idea how he would have done this alone.
@@theirishhomestead I love their accent too!
Wonderful work as usual. This rebuild should be a tv series! We are so lucky to go the journey with you ❤
A wonderful adventure for your children that they're able to contribute to the homestead; both structures and creatures. It's a terrific bonding and learning experience and no doubt you and they will have many years together enjoying the bucolic piece of Heaven on Earth that you've created together. Peace from San Jose, California.
Getting sooo far with this years unusual wet weather. I just love to watch your work ethic, what an example you set for your children and for all who watch you channel. ❤
What an episode ! Great content ...the match to the music had me swelling with total pride and utter delight for you 😂 ❤ l9ve the work you do and the way you go about it all
Brilliant. Lovely to watch from the comfort of my sofa. Hats off to you all.
Oh Wow guys, looking fantastic, such a transformation. It's coming together so well, restoring an old home into a strong new family home....😍
Love the banter with the workmen, "what have you been doing the last few weeks Sam? " ha ha
It is absolutely beautiful and you must be feeling excited. So much hard work has gone into this building. Love from Australia ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Toby and Tilly look happy. Amazing work on the roof.😊
amazing! inching closer to this derelict house becoming you cosy home. 🌟
I was holding my breath watching the grey clouds roll in. All that backbreaking prep work is starting to pay off!
Ahh, it's been throwing it down, but everything will dry... I hope!
Enlightning what a huge job this is with such a large expansive roof bebuild with new stronger rafters needed together with presumably new stone ends will need re building/ pointing. Hope you can get as much done before winter with the brill Irish bros to set you right to be sure😅
Terrific job on the roof guys, grafting at its best.
That was mesmerising to watch. I was keeping an eye on the clouds, but you seem to have got lucky.
It's amazing, what a few extra pairs of hands can achieve - well done lads, you've broke the back of that roof restoration. 👍👍👍
Upstairs looked so big when the roof was off. Well done guys, another great watch and one step closer eh? Thank you ❤
Fantastic progress. So glad the rain held off for you
Once more "et voilà"! Congrats, what a step! This cottage will be fantastic!
Yea! Great progress and Sam with two skilled helpers loved watch g them work.
Great craftsmen at work with good humour and great detail. Chuffed to see the progress.
I look forward to your videos every week. Thank you. ❤️
Brilliant work guys. So pleased rain kept away as needed.
So happy to see you doing so well, it’s going to be a beautiful cottage, all your hard work is paying off xx
Great job so glad you did your preparation well and it paid off 🎉. Have a nice weekend and week ahead 😊❤
Yay nearly got the roof on ...leaps and bounds . 💪👌 Seeing two happy donks grazing away ... Toby must think hes in heaven .
That ruddy great hole in the floor had me anxious a few times. Amazing team. Well done.
brilliant to see you are cracking on with the roof we hope the weather is good to you till you get it dried in that will be a major mile stone
This isn’t a criticism only a caring comment , make me feel easier watching & put a guard rail around the staircase just in case one of you should get tired & step back having forgotten it’s there.
Well done with your progress you’re doing so well, I’ll keep my fingers crossed for a few dry days for you.🙂
I agree, 👍🏻that big unprotected floor opening was very dangerous indeed. 😮
It must feel so good to finally be able to “create” your dream. It’s starting to look like a home!
Poor, Nell… watched her in the background trying to herd cats! lol.. (she obviously has never heard that expression…😂)
Yes it's amazing to see it start to come together.
I kept looking at those clouds and saying "don't you dare" lol.
Amazing that wind 💨 blowing the saw around 😮
✨🕊️💚☘️💚🕊️✨
Coming on guys. When you think back to last year.
Fantastic work. Ive been watching the weather all week and hoping it was all going well. you are all an inspiration and deserve the best in life x
A small group of determined and skillful lads are making magic happen!! Keep up the good work and thanks for sharing it!!!
Thanks 👍
Good you had such help it's going to be a big space under there. It's all coming together and going to be amazing 😊
Well done guys, like a race against time when those grey clouds and wind was blowing up there as you worked to 5kw the corrugated off and the new on . I am didn’t want the video to stop 💪💪💪
I've never watched a video of builders taking a roof off and actually crying when it was gone ready for the next stage. Lovely, lovely lovely progress for you all.
Congratulations on getting the new beams up. A huge task, done so well by you Sam and your team. Looking forward to more from you. Stay safe and dry, all of you 💛
A real pleasure to watch you guys made a great team.
Great watch. Very informative. Can't wait to see that fireplace in use.
Loving the angle grinder clock !! 😅 watched you guys from day 1 starting to come on nicely now. Hope the upcoming storm don't cause you much disruption
Great job Guys can’t wait for the next episode ❤
Every time we get a new video, more progress in your renovation. 🙌🙌👍👍 Can just prays two hardworking young people. God blessings on all your dream's for your beautiful family you two are working towards. 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Well done guys! That was amazing and great that the weather worked in your favour too ❤ Lovely watching Nell keeping an eye on proceedings and the very handsome Toby and his gorgeous girlfriend ❤ Hope you have a relaxing weekend and both put your feet up! Much love ❤
Thanks so much! 😊 Looking forward to a drive out tomorrow. A garden centre visit is always nice.
God bless the work, men. 😊
Hard graft and passion for your home project you and all those helping are amazing
I found your channel a couple of days ago, and find it quite restful to watch the changes, i bet its not so restful for you though, you're doing a great job i must say it's going to be wonderful when it's all done 😊👍
I know it’s down to so much of your hard work, but as a lazy observer, it really feels like things are moving quickly now. You are all amazing 😊
Great work, great progress, and Bec holding it all together Great filming,I think you missed your vocation
Absolutely brilliant guys well done glad you’ve done so much 🏴
That was amazing to watch! Thank you for sharing.
Brilliant work. Lovely to see it all coming together . Well done 👍🏻👍🏻 such a difference ,
Well done great job.
Looks great ❤👍🇭🇲🇭🇲
Looks much stronger than the old roof. Great progress
Thanks for an enjoyable video, as always your work is enjoyable and constructive,with attention to detail. While work was intensive and time sensitive there was always time for banter. This takes me back to my time in renovation of old buildings, unforgettable despite many of the great characters no longer with us. That eara the neighbours would call and share their experiences. 60//70// 80ies ,this was before Celtic tiger.
kind regards Sean
Please put a temporary rail around the opening in the floor...Someone will step back and fall...❤❤ Not worth the risk
I shed tears of joy when the old roof came off … I’m so delighted for you both to see such brilliant progress … I’m in awe of the huge effort from you both ❤
Ух ты! Спасибо тем, кто Вам помогал! Целая бригада. Молодцы, мужики!😊

It felt so good to see the progress on the roof, all working in sync and getting the job done. The light is showing at the end of the tunnel hehe :)
More amazing progress, incredible to watch 🥰
Such an amazing achievement, well done all
Teamwork makes the dream work 👍
It’s looking amazing. And beautiful weather so far!
Absolutely amazing 😃👋👋👋
Wonderful progress!
Amazing!
Its a miracle that no one fell into that hole😢
It always rains when you're roofing, good job, looking forward to seeing it waterproof!
Congrats 👍
Wow Wow Wow. I love the drone shots.
This is such a milestone (I feel like ever video is a milestone), but what a difference seeing the old roof, no roof and new roof together at the end!
Don't know why I'm getting so emotional. Wonderful progress folks ❤
Love the dancing chainsaw 😅
Wonderful team work … in under 20mns!! Well done 😂! ! Enjoy your weekend off 😊
Absolutely fantastic team effort !!!!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
The statement “many hands make light work” comes to mind.
A very good week’s work !!

The build is really flying along - the before and after drone shots give a great indication of the progress. It’ll be so much easier in the coming winter to work with a sealed roof. Well done all.
