[@4potslite169]

My rule for every crazy project I take on : Overestimate my cash & time budgets. Take my cash budget and double it. Take my time budget and triple it. Take both revised budgets and multiply each by 1.5. Take those revised budgets and add another 25%. Take the time budget and an additional day per week to account for mental stress. Take the cash budget and add an additional 25% to cover the car breaking down during the event. Double everything and you’re set!

The absolute best about this "Remodel Series" is that I'm not involved...god, it feels SO good to just have to watch and not lift a finger... Oh, yeah, and all those roasted veggies needed was a couple of nice, thick grilled porkchops...

Lordy, I've never seen Philly look so stressed!😢 But OMG Keely, that tin of roast veggies made my mouth water!😋

Mine too. I wanted to come over for dinner. I love a good roasted potato. It’s so hard to get potatoes to go crispy on the outside these days. I think the potatoes have too much moisture in them.

In our defence with he staircase, some of it is actually black... So over time it just got blacker and we forgot it was yellow 😅 💛 hahahahahaha I couldn't believe it when Keely showed me the before and after photos 😂 I feel like my brain has lied to me for years lol!! Stairs look "sick" as Keely would say. And yeah... This whole process "it's alot!" But it's going to be worth it 😊

[@phillyandkeely]

Hahaha defo is gonna be worth it sis 💪 mum is still in denial that was dirt ahha

I`m exhausted watching all the work you`ve done. Through all the hardships you both have maintained a sense of humor, and i love that! Love how the stairs turned out. Tedious work. Keely`s Parents will be so appreciative that you care enough to do this project. Keely, i noticed in one of the scenes that you were wearing the Orthopedic boot. Hopefully you are healing well. Rob - Florida USA

[@phillyandkeely]

Thanks so much Rob, yeah I had to put it back on a couple times as I was in a lot of pain and want to give it a wee break from being on it all day. My healing is slow but good, I had two hospital appointments this week and both the fracture department and physio were happy with my progress so far. The pain is to be expected for many more months, so I just have to keep looking after it 💪💪

Hi Philly and Keely. You are doing really well. There are always unexpected challenges when you are renovating anything. We had our kitchen completely replaced a few years back and it took about 4 weeks so anyone saying 2 days are probably just replacing a few cupboards 🥰 Take care. Nick

Yeah I think that's what we are realising, swapping a few cupboards is very different to what we are doing haha

@ the renovation cliches are true it takes twice as long and costs twice as much as you expect and hope for best and plan for the worst cos those cans of worms are real! I’m glad that in NZ we only have gib and wood to deal with, all that brick and plaster looks proper hard.

Guys...don't compare times for renovating a kitchen. Not many kitchens are in a state of disrepair as this one. I think for your parents it is a very fortunate thing you are uncovering all the electrical and plumbing problems because if mice are eating the electrical...how freaking dangerous is that? How old is that wiring and plumbing? It gives me chills to think of the what ifs in this house. If you take longer than your parents would like, so be it. They will be thrilled and grateful to have a house that is not a ticking time bomb.

[@phillyandkeely]

Yes our thoughts exactly, just glad it's all going to be done right 💪💪 I'm still hopeful we have time and believe we will get it done 🤞🤞

[@lianewendy905]

Wow what an awesome job you guys are doing. I’m constantly surprised by your endless talents and perseverance!! We just put in an IKEA kitchen and it took me weeks to put all the cabinets together (we did get a man in to do the install). First thing I did though was to get my IKEA itemised “shopping list”, gave each cabinet a number then sorted all the boxes (160 of them!) into piles of individual cabinets and wrote their number on. Made it so much easier when I went to assemble them. Good luck - you’re doing great ❤ Also Keely those stairs were next level dedication but wow what a fabulous transformation!!

[@phillyandkeely]

That's exactly what we need to do with the boxes, excellent advice!! Appreciate your kind words ❤️❤️

Keeley, you could put up some plastic sheets to protect the area around the stairs while you work on them to make it less clean up work. Slow and steady will get yiu there. It is very likely the stairs are brass and need regular cleaning with brasso, once you remove all the old paint.

First of all, you guys get major points for sticking it out and making progress. Totally understood the frustration with the issues that kept popping up. But that's the big thing with renovating an older home. Keely, major high fives on the beautiful circular staircase. So much hard work, but whoa, what a transformation! I do hope your folks like the color, I think it looks fab. And well done on the flooring, Philly. I really love those large format tiles. There's a subtle elegance to that flooring. Well done on ticking off more items on the list. Really glad to see how well you did at the end. Somewhere around the middle I was thinking, "Give it up and just emigrate to America. Pretty unlikely your folks could find you." Just kidding. Pretty much. 😉

Don't know if it's too late, but looking at your list, you're planning to put the wall units in after the base units. It's *much* easier to hang the wall units first with nothing underneath them...

[@phillyandkeely]

Luckily with IKEA wall units the all get hung on a rail, so they get built on the floor and just mounted to the rail, I'm hoping that's reasonably straight forward haha, but I honestly have no idea. Always open to changing the order or things to make the work flow easier. The kitchen is still a construction zone so we are very up to date on videos haha, so all critique can be implemented so far 💪💪

[@dxg999]

@@phillyandkeely If you mount the wall units after the floor units, then you have to lift up AND reach over. Whereas, if you mount the wall units first, then you only have to lift up - MUCH easier. Try holding a wall unit at arm's length - you'll see what I'm on about. And that's before trying to hook it onto the rail...

Is your mum watching these videos while on holiday? You are doing a great job guys. Keep going . A bit like a van build, one job causes another job and instead of 10 min job can be several hours, Sound familiar?Michelle ❤ x

Yeah she is probably watching this one right now haha. Hoping she is gonna call me and say she likes the stairs colour. Everything that happens is a surprise until she sees it in the video 😂😂

Is it me or does Philly at times look like Walter white (breaking bad) with his yellow hoodie and mask? !! 😂😂😷
