Oh boy! If I may offer 1 suggestion...put drain in that corner of the garage now. That way no matter what, if water finds its way in (it will because youve now told the gremlins where it is) it will come in handy to have a floor drain. Our garage is the same & thank goodness, the little fella who we bought it from, did that. House is looking good! Remember youre tips when coming upon things like that arent boring, you never know who it will help!

[@Camiken65]

Well, duh! Why didn't I think of that! My laundry room floor slopes toward my kitchen. I haven't figured out a good way to fix it without pulling the entire floor and have been worried over a washer flood. You just solved my stress issue. LOL It's over a crawl space even. LOL Floor drain going in post haste!!! I think I'll put one in the kitchen too. Genius! LOL. THANK YOU!!! HUGS

For real, my garage floor just slopes out the garage door. You'd need a drain for that shoddy concrete pour. Easier said than done on a slab though, some busting is in order.

Hilarious play fighting 😂

[@kyrataylor2035]

The first house reno I ever watched was Matt Carikker's house ("I Bought an Abandoned Mansion") on his Off The Ranch YT channel. Of course, the first I knew of it, the build was already over so I watched the edited version of the entire build, then went back and watched individual episodes. So as soon as I saw his "I Bought an Abandoned Resort" thumbnail, I've been addicted ever since. Jenna's house is the only one I've seen that had to be almost completely deconstructed first, so I'm addicted to this one, too.

[@rrmcbride555]

I have been doing renovation for 35 years. I can tell you that the biggest mistake you can make when rebuilding a house is believing that the person that built the house you're working on was any good at their job. People somehow believe that houses are level,square and plumb. Not even close. Understand this. Just because someone does something for a living doesn't mean they are any good at it. Also contractors do NOT believe it's their job to fix the mistakes of other contractors. An out of level slab carries straight up to the roof because no one cares. They just want their money. You're doing the right thing fixing those mistakes but you see it makes the job harder. A framer doesn't figure in the extra labor to make it level . Good thing you have free labor.

[@mfree80286]

I thought my house was pretty well done (1951) until about a year after I bought it when I found some decking in the attic had not only been laid on top of a run of romex over a rafter in a couple places, but they managed to somehow sink a nail THROUGH the romex without causing a short or piercing the inner insulation. Later on I found part of the 1960's bathroom redux that added marble walls and an enameled steel tub set that tub on a bed of grout chaff... with a newer run of romex going right under the metal tub, on top of all the sharp masonry chunks. I've heard the term "hot tub" before, but never quite like that possibility... Also sometime in the 70's or early 80's someone chopped a hole in the garage floor to add a sump pump, and channeling along the basement walls to catch water intrusion. Thing is, this house is ON A HILL, and not 25 feet away the ground falls off at a foot every 6-10 feet. It needed a frickin' pipe, not a convoluted sump pump rig....

[@mathehack1]

Absolutely, it takes someone who is very detailed oriented and to slow down during the building of a house to make sure it's level and plumb.

[@Kevin_Rhodes]

My house is all but perfectly level, plumb, and square everywhere. Because it is the house that the builder/developer who built my neighborhood built for *himself*. The boss's house got EXTRA attention.

[@jessivilleneuve7939]

We level all walls or it would never pass inspection. From the get go its leveled from the foyndation and cimented in place then lag bolted every 2 feet (rods stick out of the foundation). We level litteraly every wall and don't remove our milion braces until the roof is sheeted. This is standard for inspections in Quebec and Ontario Canada.

[@LongDefiant]

Welcome to capitalism.

[@TheDog_Chef]

I can already picture you two in the finished house, sitting drinking coffee, admiring your view and looking around giggling and saying we did this!

[@ericaparrott5608]

“Remember when we pulled that whole wall down Nicki?”

[@kennethbarber438]

3 years from now

[@crushed-candies]

Since your guys' garage foundation isn't leveled, you can install a 'channel drain' in front of your garage door. You'll have to cut a recess into the concrete, install some sort of half cylinder that fits the recess dimensions, and put a grate over it. They're easy to clean since the grates are removable, NOT inherently ugly if you get some nice hardware, and since the house is on the right and (i assume) nothing is on the left, you can guide the water left to drop off behind the garage, or even connect it with the roof gutters to combine the water and guide it to drop off behind/under the pool area. I swear it'll save you guys since the property is on a pretty gnarly grade.

[@medavis]

I left a separate comment about the grade of the garage slab causing potential water issues, and I approve this suggestion. Something's going to have to be done to get any water that gets into that back corner away from the walls and out of the garage! It's either that, or tear out the slab and repour...but I'm guessing we're past that. :D

[@kyrataylor2035]

​@@medavis I was checking the comments to see if anyone had posted about drainage for the back of the garage. My first thought when he was push-brooming the water out was to cut a drain hole (round or square) and pipe the runoff away from the garage. I had drains added to the carport of my mid-century modern home about 6 years ago and it made such a difference. My friend, who is a master craftsman, did the work. I was fascinated watching him carve out a slight slope around the drain edge (which he sunk a little below grade of the rest of the concrete carport floor) to channel the water toward the drain. He did an amazing job.

[@crushed-candies]

@@medavis Absolutely, and I'm unsure how the ground meets the foundation/the back and left wall of the garage, but if there's enough rainfall or collection and it meets the lip of the foundation it could very easily seep under the walls if there isn't proper waterproofing. And going below foundation level, depending on the ground level, will absolutely result in rot and mold. I would personally extend the drain down the left wall of the garage for longevity and added security since the walls are directly touching the foundation. I don't doubt however that Jenna and Nick will properly waterproof!

[@CarolinSoldOut]

Thank you Jenna for your videos. I am have been studying for an exam for almost as long as you have been renovating this place (German med school finals) and tomorrow is the day I am done. :) Your video gave me so much comfort and I looked forward to it every week (Thursday for lunch).

I love that y’all got a little snarky with each other. After the week you had it’s understandable. Finding out you aren’t level after doing all that work is frustrating. And the cold weather coming. And the restrictions for your roof. And the amount of things you need to get done before snow starts falling. Yall are still the most precious couple on KZbin.

Glad to see you take time for Madden and date nights, a big project like this can easily take over everything and wear you down. But the roof seems like the most major thing still left. Everything after that is downhill in comparison. You're soon going to be working inside and doing insulation, plumbing, electrical, floors etc and taking a snack break while looking at the view. Good times ahead.

[@amandahutchison5360]

After all that wobbly mess you now have a new rebuilt garage that is even all round in one week, well done, the floor is a simple fix with self leveling concrete

[@lisve]

don't level the garage, it needs drainage. It looks like there's a slope from the street to the garage entrance, so in case of a downpour all that water might flood the garage.

Love to see plywood rather than ugly, offgassing particleboard. Edmonton had a tornado in 1987 & I would NOT lay any money on safety from extreme weather events. Love you two!💕💕

[@douglascaskey7302]

Hate to inform you, but plywood can also off-gas formaldehyde because it's bonded with phenol formaldehyde adhesive.

[@Kisai_Yuki]

Plywood/OSB, and Particleboard/MDF are only different in the source material, not the glue. Plywood is wood chips glued together, particle board is sawdust glued together. Particle board is usually used for cabinets and shelving because its' lighter than solid wood. Both use urea-formaldehyde glue unless it's "E0". Either way, "engineered" wood can be stronger when used properly, and absolute rubbish if used wrong (eg bathroom exterior walls) which is why it should never be bare exterior walls, because it crumbles from long term UV exposure.

I have three words for you: Self Leveling Concrete. Use that to level out your garage floor. :D

You want a bit of slope in your garage floor. Either towards a drain or towards the door. All that snow and ice that melts off the car needs somewhere to go. Not saying their current floor is correct (it's obviously not), but perfectly level is not correct either.

[@daeganreimer8610]

[@frankevans287]

@@daeganreimer8610 there is a lot of rain, and there is some snow most years, the slab should slope 1/8" per foot minimum towards the garage door, and the framed walls should be on concrete curb walls that keep the framing 6" above grade. As for the roof you cant use metal roofing on a flat roof, they have basically three options, torch on, vinyl/rubber, or tar and gravel. Tar and gravel is also a roof they could easily do themselves.

Love watching. For this Canadian living in the US it reminds me of my homeland that I’m often lonely for. You are doing a great job.

Shane's mistakes takes the meaning of a "Comedy of Errors" to a whole new level! Garage looks great!

You’re great storytellers! How much you get done in a week does not affect whether we watch or not!

[@dlowe09122]

You guys are awesome. Not many people can do this, especially at the rate you're doing it. It's good that yall caught the unleveled walls before roofing came in, and no none of the videos have been boring. Great job!!
