DeWalt Let us Down, but the Barn is Ready for Paint

[@litehold1144]

You made the metal look new on the one side, and almost new on the other. Everything looks great! Maverick is totally adorable at the end

[@cepcee6035]

Big job done , can’t wait to see the paint ... Maverick and Belle are growing fast Xxx

[@enriquegarciacota3914]

Few people are commenting this, but I think the way you repaired the wall was ace.

[@tbird4evr]

Enrique Garcia Cota I was thinking the same thing. One thing I have learned from watching this channel is Doug doesn’t cut corners on anything. He does it right the first time! ~Tim~🙂

[@diyfferent]

Thanks!

[@susanoliver8502]

What a difference! Maverick saying bye is the cutest thing ever!

[@kimberleytramper8966]

Looking forward to the next video to see the color you’ve chosen. Love the ending with little Maverick!

[@richardjones5255]

It is amazing the different it makes just showing the homestead a little love. Leaving a soil free margin round buildings will pay a dividend. Either a good thick 6 inches of wood chip mulch or stone chippings will keep the splashes cleaner and give somewhere for the rain and melting snow to go. Just cleaning off the grime and weed has really helped. I wonder if the De Walt motor issue represents a problem batch issue, it did sound a lot like a bearing running dry or a failing motor problem. It would not be unreasonable to complain as the issue appears very genuine. Yes maverick should be a source of pride to you, as should your daughter, a lovely family for whom you strive to do the best. I admire the way you never appear to get rattled when things go wrong it makes you a good role model and not just for children.

[@billpar]

you are such a hardworking husband and dad, what a blessing to your family and the farm , continued blessings in Jesus name

[@lindabunce5133]

Nice video....and then came the very end. Maverick was the star with that smile and "Bye". He is so precious.

[@elisabethe8055]

I just love your ingenuity! That fix to the hole in the barn was just that kind of things that makes you channel so fulfilling to watch! I learn things all the time, thank you for that! :) What a difference some water and soap makes! :)

[@RobertasArtisticAdventures]

I too love his ingenious design to fix the hole in the barn! When he was cutting into it, and then adding the "fix" sideways I couldn't imagine what Doug was doing, but I was quite impressed with the outcome. One would hardly notice that repair as it doesn't at all look like your typical style "patch" repair.

[@elisabethe8055]

@@RobertasArtisticAdventures exactly! :)

[@labbrockington7854]

Wow what a transformation and daddy got to have fun doing it, looks really good guy's, i'm enjoying watching you guy's your little boy is so cute. God bless you and your family. 🍊

[@christinabrodrick6406]

The ending was precious... can hardly wait to see the color you pick☺️

[@TINA-xu2bc]

Love his little bye. So cute

[@yvonnezyirek5167]

So satisfying watching all of the years get washed away from that slab!!!! AND CUTEST BYE EVER!!

[@MimiMcWil]

Aww that sweet ending made me smile!!

[@joycejones6015]

Doug, Maverick is soooo cute! That power washer did the job! It looks great! Can’t wait to see the barn color. 💕

[@SDugan52]

Looks great, loved Maverick’s goodbye🌿

[@SilverGoth]

Pressure washing concrete is so satisfying when it’s really dirty! I am so glad you got a pressure washer. 😁

[@zombeemom]

lol when you're still spraying after dark you know that pressure washer has a tool-to-toy ratio imbalance 😂 sending friendship and laughter to your family from mine in Maine 😀👍🏼

[@ggmax2958]

Can't wait for the color. Love me some Maverick

[@heidim6468]

People are so sweet but really your family gives good videos and we all love to watch them. America love it here.

[@joduffield7500]

Men and their new toys! 🙃It's soothing to watch all the dirt disappear. You will power washing everything you can now.

[@Stitcher1964]

I love our power washer

[@nataliemanely6022]

Wow! Looking better with each step you take! The power washer did the job for sure! Maverick is such a heart warmer! That little boy voice and that smile that lights up the screen was the best ending to the video. As always thank you for sharing.

[@diyfferent]

Thank you :)

[@kathleenmccall2671]

Doug and Ashley, getting new equipment, is all in your own good time. I have been playing with the pressure washer idea for several years. In the mean time have been able to borrow one from neighbor when needed. It does make the home sparkle, and the speed of washing up is crazy fast versus a bucket and brush. Just be careful on new surfaces such as concrete not to linger to long in one area, you will take the top finish off your nice smooth finish. Can't wait for the barn color, this is always exciting when color is involved. I think Maverick's closing was adorable, you have a wonderful night.

[@brendahaire8824]

Ashley, Maverick is taking your line. He is the cutest little boy. Great job.

[@PattyPaints]

Awwwwww💕💕 Loved Maverick's little byeeee 🥰

[@audreykavanaugh8589]

Maverick’s “bye” was so cute. I love doing power washing. It’s so satisfying to see the results.

[@danielheartsill4269]

If you aren't already thinking it, you will shortly be thinking"how did I ever live without the pressure washer. They are great for so many things. We have hardwood floors in our house, the real ones from 1951. We use oval braided rugs rather than carpet as we are farm house style. Once per year I clean the driveway, lay the rugs on it, wet the rugs, add soap then pressure wash them. They come out looking like new. So many uses, I love mine and I know you will yours too. Very glad you bought it.

[@reginald892]

Y’all are too humble and deserve the work. God bless

[@irenebaker8263]

"Bye" sweetest ever!🤗👍💯

[@Zombie-adventures]

Nice job on the barn! When you walked away I was waiting for Ashley, then that precious Maverick says bye! Awwwwe! So cute!!!

[@Dontwantahandle0]

Good job and awe, Maverick saying bye, sweet!

[@billiev.9719]

22 years ago when we moved out to this property, hubby bought a $600 commercial Shindaiwa weed whacker. (yes, it's gas powered) I had a fit because it was so expensive, but you know what? 22 years later it's still running strong, with only one $60 repair about 10 years ago. For the first three years here, we didn't own a lawnmower, I "mowed" our one acre cleared area with the weed whacker. It's big, it's blue, it's heavy, and it is a beast. I honestly think it will outlast me! I hope it does. I'm in charge of the yard, and I wouldn't trade my big ol' heavy Shindaiwa for anything!

[@freckles3705]

I have a Shindawa too for 13 years. I was a little scared to use it because it is powerful. Spent about $60-70 to tune it up last year and was told it is difficult to get parts if something major happens. Would not trade it for anything.

[@diyfferent]

That's awesome! 😄

[@skrtskit1521]

I bought mine because of you. If i ever run into problems, not to worry I won't blame you 😍

[@missusjoe]

Aww Maverick you are so adorable!

[@rockreader4298]

Doug, Fill the cracks in the cement slab with (wood ash) from your stove. It hardens much like cement. Learned that trick from a YT video someone posted on the many ways to use wood ash, You are making progress, : )

[@carolyncarlson3825]

What A difference. A little elbow grease in it looks like new. I can't wait to see the paint. The property looks amazing. Maverick is the cutest little boy His little face just makes you smile

[@ninafodale]

You blow me away with how much you got done this summer and because of you I'm motivated by getting things done in my home and life, keep up the great work!👍❤️

[@Hippabellita1]

my exact thought when watching this video ;-)))) they really are rocking it and it's contagious .... :-)))

[@diyfferent]

Thanks! Glad that we have motivated you :)

[@vintageresalemama903]

Awwwww, cuteness overload at the end. Maverick is so adorable! Doug & Ashley, welcome to Club Power Wash! I love to power wash my concrete patio, sidewalk, and driveway. It's sooooo satisfying. Can't wait to see how your garage turns out. Take care.

[@debbymiller8828]

Enjoyed today’s video, especially the “Bye”.

[@pippaseaspirit4415]

Once your barn is painted, consider attaching some welded mesh panels to brackets on it. You will then have the perfect place to grow any vegetables that like to climb: beans, squashes, tomatoes, etc. Vertical gardening on an existing building can give you masses of extra garden space!

[@yvonnefitts5229]

WOW! Everything looks so clean...and clean is my favorite color....LOL

[@peaceofmind3184]

That was so adorable at the end!! 😊

[@crystalmedina8956]

Oh my goodness, your little boy is adorable!!💙

Nice and Clean!! :) That was an adorable "bye" from little Maverick! Peace and Good Fortune and Good Health to you and your family.

[@JD-Defenders]

That was an awesome surprise little one! God bless.

[@missykowalewski]

Doug u handled the disappointment of a bad tool very well. U just kept moving forward. Perfect example of how life doesn't always goes as planned and we have to find a way to keep working toward the goal. Great lesson. And what a charmer Maverick has become. I am just struck at how fast he has grown. Can't get the picture of that baby in a carrier out of my head.

[@cathysteenson9591]

Aw, Maverick was so cute at the end!!!

Prep work is vital to good paint job!👍😁

[@laurahunter4860]

I'm so excited to see what color you chose

With any of the obstacles you come into you still push through which I think is amazing. Such a determined and hard worker.

Hey guys! Almost at 100k subscribers. Painting the barn is gonna put you over the top!

[@richardfromcanada6129]

Great tool unveiling. Works good... very satisfying to watch.

[@patriciayost448]

The weed wacker has a short or loose connection in the off and on switch that you can fix yourself.

[@debbralehrman5957]

Yep that is what it sounds like to me too.

[@defender_of_wonder]

Pressure washing is addictive and so rewarding you will find out Doug and Ashley that you will find a way to pressure wash everything 😂😂 It's looking great 👍🏻 can't wait to see your paint choice! Be safe and healthy 😷Take Care!

[@marymisdom3955]

You always do good prep work. Can't wait to see the paint color.

Thanks! Paint video should be our next video :)

[@jill4310]

What a nice surprise at the end!

[@pennylane36]

Ok, I’m impressed! How you patched that hole in the barn. I thought you were going to put it over top but that works so much better

[@prettyroughacresfarm2537]

My husband said you're my new HGTV, we don't have tv haven't for a while but when we did and I watched it I always came up with ideas for things. Now I'm doing it with you guys! I'm learning so much! Thank you

[@violethoffermobilehomemove9189]

I don't know anything about the amount of pressure. But be careful ours will wash the wood right off of our old privacy fence if you hold it to close. And clay you have to scrub if its red clay it's almost baked on.. and scrubbing is about the only way to get it off. It kinda dyes the wood red mud color.

[@lindajc123]

I'm happy you got the power washer. What a savings in human energy and an almost immediate transformation from dirty to clean - the power of water!!

[@KellyEUTAH]

Thank you for warning is of this major defect in that weed whacker. I'll be steering clear. Top notch video as always.👍

[@peggymohr7899]

Wow what a difference a day makes. Move your sharing the videos with us. Maverick is really a good boy.

[@2jrts314]

I have used for 8 years a ryobi 1 string trimmer. I have 4 40 volt batteries handy. I do occasionally buy the “shell” of the trimmer from Home Depot online as my Replacement. I’m a female and it’s not as heavy as the gas. It has pivot head to Turn to edge or weed eat. Love ❤️ Ryobi Stuff.

You know how I can tell you enjoyed pressure washing? Normally you end the video when it starts to get dark. This time you kept going 😃 Maverick was adorable at the end too!

[@marciawoods3270]

Going to look so good and clean when y’all are done whatever color you choose. My favorite music y’all play is in this video. Love to hear the birds chirping. Maverick you are just a cutie. Bye. ❤️

[@PattiRoseLifeHappens]

Best ending yet!😊💗

[@annettearties8538]

Wow, that was a smart way that you fixed the hole from the outside to fit in the inside. Maybe there's a shortage. Contact the store or manufacturer. The barn does look great. You are so committed. 😊😊

[@maryjackson4316]

You have done a great job of remodeling everything that was bad to looking good

[@kimberlygreisiger923]

Pressure washing is so satisfying! Looking good can’t wait to see the paint!

[@TheWoodHaven]

I have the Ryobi trimmer that uses the same battery as my drills. Had it for at least 15 years. Only had to replace the string.

[@sheilavanduynfote5539]

You and Ashley work so hard, the cement looks great and so does the barn.

[@elizabethbrooks4849]

No clue how to fix the weeder. But the power cleaning did good job. Look forward to your color choice. Guessing blue like he front door or barn red. Will wait n see Have a good one

[@yvonneost12]

WOW how humble are you to still buy it yourself even after someone offered to buy one for you , that is unbelievable as most you tubers are out for as many gifts as they can get their hands on.. maybe the kind person can still give you the gift and you get other tools that you need.

[@rhorn79]

13:58 he's gone down the rabbit hole "what can I wash next!". 😂😂

[@Annes44]

Nice job! The barn looks so clean and in good shape, you could almost just plant some shrubs along it and not have to pain.

[@carlahubbard7561]

A new toy! You two make work look like fun! Bye, Maverick, you cutie!

[@jodyhuntsman4126]

Pressure washing is awesome! Makes such a big change.

[@Kittycat822]

I use the Ryobi and so far so good for the last two years.

[@RobertasArtisticAdventures]

Awwww! The best part of this video was Maverick saying, "Bye!" Such a cutie! I hope you are able to get a replacement trimmer from DeWalt. Yous did a great job cleaning up and repairing the barn. Excited to see what color you paint it. I wondering if it will be a barn red or forest green.

[@lb012006]

I have never had any problems i have a Ryobi weed eater and my friend has a ryobi push mower. Ryobi is the way to go.

[@tygerm00n]

I was going to the same thing! I love my Ryobi trimmer and mower! I've never had an issue, trims and edges great. The mower is wonderful. Get Ryobi!

[@calicocritterscrafts886]

We have their power washer and absolutely love it! Great price for their products and good quality

[@robertburgess3767]

There is nothing more rewarding than an afternoon with the pressure washer, ok maybe I'm sad with no life😂 but I love it!...alls coming together well now doug, cant wait for the big reveal!...you know your going to have to build a big play house or something for the kids, maybe a big wooden den! There's plenty of land to do it on 👌

[@Aspire2Cycle]

I love all my Ryobi tools, weed eater works great and it's the 18v, not the 40v!

[@hdeaver86]

I can also say I have a ryobi string trimmer that has lasted 4 years, the batteries I have had to replace but the trimmer won't stop working.

[@barbmartinez5145]

Y'all did a great job getting it all cleaned up and ready for the paint job! I think that power wash was really worth it! Continue with the good work can't wait to see how the barn is when you finish! Have a great day!

[@adrianling7301]

Didn't think the colour would change that much. Are you going to put mulch around it so you don't get as much splash back?

[@diyfferent]

Yea, we'll be doing something for sure around the perimeter to prevent splash up and weeds :)

[@jennievaughan4949]

Oh my, we have to wait for the paint color, come on Doug next video please. Hugs from Australia

[@kathycortez232]

Doug you are so cod lol atleast you are clean my Grandma use to say it’s not a sin to be poor as long as you were clean but it was a sin to be nasty lol that has always stuck with me My grandma would be bragging on you God bless your soul thank you for sharing hugs and prayers

[@fergusontea]

Fixing tools and appliances is great fun. I enjoy it. Usually, there aren’t big problems unless it’s been neglected or abused. I fixed an oscillating cutoff tool a couple weeks ago. A wire came off for a brush and melted some stuff. A bit of time and solder later, and it was good as new. I soldered the connector for the other brush to make sure it, too, stayed on.

[@biointheknow]

you can get a bag of self leveling cement and fill those slab cracks easily

[@waywardangel6356]

Oh Maverick! 🥰 Great job 🌱 looking forward to seeing it painted. I'm sure you'll make it look great👍

[@vancemccarthy2554]

Nothing beats a petrol weed whacker. The switch on the Dewalt is likely corroded.

[@anitatucker8812]

Bye Maverick. ☺ Can't wait to see the paint.

[@CantankerousDave]

A cheap stirrup hoe would make quick work of the grass and weeds alongside the barn. Plus, it would also get the roots.

[@ardenehanson2840]

Good job on the hole repair. You are so clever!!!

[@rosemcginnis616]

Maybe it has a bad connection either from where you push the button or where the battery is

[@MarysPlace]

Lemon joy and bleach is what we used to clean trailers off with and a carpet wrapped push broom and a pressure nozzle on a hose it worked like a charm and would pull everything off of it. Watching you use that brought back memories.

Pressure washers are the best!!!!👍👍👍👍🇬🇷♥️♥️♥️🤗🤗🤗

[@christinetilton4562]

What a difference. Especially on the concrete. Can’t wait for the painting video.
