So glad to see that this was straight forward with no hiccups. Andrea has the guts, fearlessness, strategic thinking and determination of a navy seal. Two seconds before it started, I thought the Pink Panther theme would be perfect here! Well done, Dean!

[@queengp4122]

i found myself singing the Lowe’s song 👁️👄👁️ ~ *every single day it’s a Lowe’s trip* ~

[@tins369]

😂 same. Just right at the moment

[@vandittpatel]

I was waiting for "it's okay honey, take one step at a time"

[@diywife]

Ha! Big missed opportunity there, should've had you on the writing team for this one... :P -Dean

[@billandbeverly]

Beautiful work as usual you’re very gifted young lady

[@tiffanyburgess4168]

I don’t normally comment but I just wanted to post a PSA. I had these steps before and if you don’t wear shoes in the house and you wear socks. They are very slippery and my dad and husband both had serious falls. These are not cheap and we had to rip them out and install carpet. I know she said they haven’t had problems but I would think twice and consider who’s living in your house and if you wear socks. I would not recommend these stairs to any of my friends or family. No hate just genuinely concerned and it was really scary when my family fell.

[@sharondoan1447]

You are so right. It only takes one person to fall and change their life and yours forever. Slippery wood steps with children is too risky.

[@Lele-rj6ro]

There are different clear, anti-slip textured stick-on vinyl pieces you can put on your stairs. Kinda of like what they have for bath tubs and showers so people don’t slip.

[@marydenney8249]

So glad you are back! I missed you guys

[@femalewarrior125]

Love everything you guys do! The children having their own project is fantastic and you two are adorable… such a nice couple!

[@gloriabond123]

Beautiful!❤ I’ve really missed ya’ll. I’m glad the children are having a good time.

[@stacey9501]

The stairs came out really good and I loved the pink panther music.

[@user-jz3hz5vi1f]

That a girl Andrea! Take you frustrations out on the banister!. Best Therapy in the world.

[@naturalgalwilliams]

Andrea, you are such an incredible inspiration! Beautiful 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽💐❣️

[@patstrawhouse4005]

I’m enjoying your projects. A gentle reminder: You really should would wear a mask (removing carpet & sawing) and ear protection when sawing. I know that it’s annoying-especially when it is so hot-but you both owe it to yourselves and your kids.

[@Susanfuzz]

Pulling up any type of fitted carpet will make you never want it in your house forever…. The dust UGH

[@oreobenavidez953]

They look stunning especially the pink panther sneaky walk 😂😂 great job you guys

[@david-paquette]

A real video !!! Thank you, I needed this !

[@mistygeller3193]

Oh my goodness I’ve been there and totally feel your pain!! I spent 2 days, 8-10 hours each, pulling nails and staples from my 100+ year old wood floors after pulling up the absolutely disgusting carpet! 😣 You have such a rewarding result there!! It’s sooo nice! I used your code a couple of months ago and now have 4 boxes of samples from Flooret! You are not joking about how incredible their product is!! It’s so pretty, great colors with a perfectly right sheen! Thank you so much for sharing your experience with them!!

[@donnamullins2089]

Andrea as usual you are amazing? Stairs look fabulous!! Have a great week.

[@pitsnipe5559]

When we moved into our current home our son was glad the stairs were carpeted. He said wood would be a slip hazard for me. Later that week I slipped on the carpet and fell down the stairs. So much for carpeting being safer.

[@clairewright8153]

You 2 are such a great couple, you work well together, you compliment each other’s strengths and what you achieve in your home is stunning. Love the bloopers, Andrea’s face at the end just says, used all words, used all brain function, Im exhausted need food need shower need bed.

[@MidwestMagicCleaning]

This video helped calm me down from an autistic panic attack. I've been a fan for quite a while, and I hope you don't mind, but I gave you both a shout-out on one of my videos a couple of weeks ago. Much love. -Mack

[@diywife]

Hey we just saw that, thanks much! Also I’m so glad the video helped bring some relief!

[@marloespeters8404]

Hi Mack ! Because of your shout out i am subscribbed to this channel . So thank you ❤ and i hope your autistic panic attacks will be less

[@kevinmcd112]

@@MidwestMagicCleaning I'm pretty sure I found your videos as a recommended video from Dean and Andrea. I don't know if I'm subscribed yet, but I'll do it right now if I'm not. We're one step closer to that golden button! 😃👍

[@Mrs.Frankenstein]

Two of my favorite channels!!

[@bettychilds5835]

We love the Lowe’s trip song. I think of it every time I go to Lowe’s. The Lowe’s song always puts a smile on my face. Plus random comments like, “flip flops are the Texas work boots. ..😂🤣😂🤣

[@jenniferschweikert7464]

So satisfying to clean up that well used location in your home! Congrats!!

[@user-eq6wb8zt8l]

The steps look amazing, great job Andrea

[@sharonc1326]

Looks gorgeous! The Pink Panther song edited in was hilarious! 😂 I’m always very entertained by your videos.

[@AnnEaton-xj6ic]

The stairs are absolutely gorgeous!!! You are amazing Andrea!!!🥰

[@reniehandler2595]

You two make a great team!

[@shanahiggins4413]

A trick I learned that might help you with measuring in areas like the upper steps. Instead of bending the tape measure and guessing what it is, the metal casing is 3 inches so run it up to the wall and read what it says then add 3 inches. I believe every tape measure has the inches marked on it but mine is 3 inches.

[@leeannekilgore9477]

Perfect ending to a great day ❤❤❤❤

[@peachaf]

Andrea and Dean another wonderful joy.

[@mrspaulsen1717]

I would love your ideas about doing projects, and staying caught up on day to day chores...

[@jimlawlor6789]

You are wonderful video makers. No boring explanations just clear instructions with the demonstration. You are gifted and such a great team.

[@janetbof4]

Talent galore. Video & editing, use of tools, design creativity! Nice nice job.

[@romanahoch6288]

Andrea doing her magic again🥰💫

[@janicetribbiani7535]

Such a great vid! This is what I’m tackling next- nice to see Dean has finally calmed down a bit. 😅

[@MaddJules]

Beautiful!! Now you just have to trim the sides where the riser meets the original stairs and do the railing. Can't wait to see it finished!

[@missc541]

You guys are truly amazing, Andrea, becareful to ensure your back doesn't become hunched in old age! ❤

[@MariahESP]

Like always Andrea, anything you do ends up to be perfect and always looks really nice ! 👍🤗💪Deans comments are always so funny !😄😀 Thank you for giving us here such a good time with your videos 👍🙏🏻❤

[@jojohnson740]

"LAS CHANCLAS" THE new TEXAS work boot😂😂😂

[@AJ8828]

Yay!! Another video, and 30 minutes! I get so excited when these pop up. "Fixed the newel post!" 😂 Next reno project...the garage? 😁 You need a fresh space to house all of your project supplies, and hopefully free of opossum 😉 Love you all, from OH 😊 Oh, and that Lowe's song....can't get enough! I've even begun singing it whenever we go to Lowe's 😆

[@lovestosingalot55bodin7]

Great job Andrea. What a beautiful transition. Good on you both.

[@MsMeri1969]

I love the way that they turned out! We are needing to refinish our stairs in our house and those treads are beautiful! And Andrea, I feel the pain, you guys helped me get through my workout today! 😅

[@kevinmcd112]

Top Tip: When you order a veggie burrito from Chipotle, you get double beans, double rice and and guacamole free. 😉👍

[@audreyarsenault]

The sneaky jazz music parts were great 😂😂😂

[@marilynweist2645]

Great job and they look beautiful! Can’t wait to see the new hand rail! 🎉

[@suemussatto3543]

You're killing me Dean with the Pink Panther theme😂 As usual, you both are so, so good! Andrea with her carpenter skills and Dean with his videotography/editing. You both are just so much fun to watch.❤ Andrea....I get a kick out of your on camera voice and your voice over voice. 😊

[@EvaAliceD]

That looks so good!! Great idea and way fresher look, so so beautiful!You two are a fun team and your children doing good work where they spent their time while the stairs came about, see you on the next one 🙂

[@irmaespinoza8908]

YES!YESSSS!! ALWAYS WEAR GLOVES & PROTECTIVE EYE WEAR!!!

You are such a hard and determined DIYer…..

[@patriciawilliamsn9605]

The stairs look fantastic! You did a beautiful job

[@marcyfalconer1275]

The stairs are really beautiful. Thank you for the video.

[@michelleh.6363]

So glad you did this project because I’ve wanted to do this to our steps and questioned how to go about it…our home was built in 1831 so the hand rail may be a little tricky to cut around or remove for step overlays…but it all will go smooth hopefully!! 🙏🇺🇸💕😊👍🐾

[@madolynway6612]

Looks great. I just got new railings installed...makes a tremendous difference. Can't wait to see what you chose.

[@lolaottinger3038]

Stairs look beautiful! Nice work y’all!

[@barbgalligan4885]

These steps look fantastic! Love watching yalls videos. Ypu work so well together.

[@stephiluttrell3416]

I wear a dust mask when removing carpeting. They make a tool to remove the staples. I bought mine on Amazon but home improvement stores also carry them. It makes it so easy to remove the staples.

[@jennyellis2062]

Steps look beautiful andrea, great job as always

[@user-un9dd5sv2y]

They turned out beautifully and I'm serious about the stair spindles. I'll take them off your hands!!

[@leeannekilgore9477]

I feel y’all’s pain. Our AC unit in the attic leaked and ruined our bathroom, Matty’s room, laundry room, family room, basement bathroom and game room. It was such a mess. We had 3 of those big machines and fans on all three floors. It felt like we’d never see the the light at the end of the tunnel.

[@fierywomanpacnw7004]

Gorgeous! Brava !

[@djenkins853]

Those steps look great! I love the flooring.

You need a multi-tool with a metal attachment to cut stubborn screws flush. I found it very useful when I encountered it.

There is something so true about man strength. I have 2 sons, 6’5” and 6’4”. They were strong, but when they hit that man strength (in 20s) my life became a whole lot easier!

[@stacypecora6219]

Dean I mentioned this a while back, and you told me not to give Andrea any ideas. Yippee! It was just time. Blessings on you both.

[@diywife]

Ha! Well, you and Andrea had your way in the end! (It's a great project!) -Dean

[@mariannekuijpers9298]

[@barbb.7028]

Wow!! Your steps look amazing now. Great job! Love the Pink Panther music with the careful stepping.

[@marcelviareynolds1697]

Another beautiful job so talented and gifted and creating a warm and beautiful space❤❤❤❤❤😊

[@mariannerady1137]

really pretty! Love your videos so much

[@queencityminis]

When I'm removing excessive staples, I pass a metal paint scraper over them back and forth a few times. That pops many of them out and breaks off others. I only use pliers to remove the stubborn ones.

[@ladyt5899]

I love all the work you have done to your house!!!!❤

[@FelibertiDesign]

I’m currently working on my stairs and omg the staples.. I did not have help and there were so so many. I kept having to stop while sanding bc I kept finding one or two I missed. Gloves are a must. Can’t wait to see what railings you’ve picked out. I love the modern wrought iron ones that are thin and have ball details but I don’t have an open staircase. Mine will just be a handrail along the wall.. if I could weld though.. oh boy! 😍 If I wasn’t working on three projects at once it would be time to learn. 😂

[@dfosbu]

Loved this show you are so talented! ❤❤❤❤ Love your humor as well

[@JD-zb4ve]

You're AMAZING!!!!

[@dovesolutions]

The steps look awesome!! ❤❤❤

[@itsmefabrice]

Me watching @3:15 : "Girl, just leave it like that, works like a charm" (of course the end result is spot on but I can't get off my head it looks so good with no railing and you already have one wall railing)
