Moving an Exterior Door - Home Renovation

[@AdamMathis11]

Dude, I've watched your channel in reverse and I just love your tutorials. You make everything seem possible, easily. Thanks for all the help.

[@Andy-ir1sj]

7:05..i understand now why you always have a smile on your face...

[@rnspowell]

AHAHAHAHA Never thought of it that way!

[@rachelsalmeron721]

I am a person who loves long hair but you my sir pull off both well. I've been following you for a long while and love what you do. I hope to one day be as good as you are with carpentry, electric, and plumbing.

[@wg8304]

I love the suspenders and belt combo

[@andrewmalerba478]

I bought my first house about 4 years ago in bad really bad shape you could see from one side of the house to the other from the front door was a lot of work by myself but definitely worth it now rent it out. I did exactly what you did here with one of the exterior side doors only difference is my house has 2 floors so I had to double brace for safety. Great jobs I really enjoy all your videos and definitely looking forward to the upcoming renovations on your newly acquired home. Congrats and good luck.

[@homemadehome5575]

andrew malerba Thanks, glad you are enjoying the channel.

[@RickMcQuay]

Decades ago I gutted a house and rebuilt it, wish I'd had youtube back then. Great videos.

[@homemadehome5575]

Rick McQuay Thank you.

[@1984juant]

Wow! You guys are remodeling that house by yourselves. Amazing

[@homemadehome5575]

tecnico Indeed we are, thanks for watching.

[@jeffh7195]

What is the plan to repair the outside siding?

[@MRrwmac]

Good plan and it came together well. New utility room and you still have a door to the porch. She looks happy with the outcome also!

[@homemadehome5575]

MRrwmac She was, and so was I. Thanks for watching.

[@marttoor]

to bad here al the houses are made of bricks and concrete. love the way you can farely simple change the layout of your house. great vid as usual!

[@volodimirkun]

Hey Guys! looks awesome! your videos relly made me believe in myself being able to build my house myself! Thank You so much for the inspiration!!! God Bless you.

[@TinyHouseCustoms]

Great video! I watch a lot of videos like this and always shake my head. But you sir know what your doing.

[@homemadehome5575]

Tiny House Customs..........just enough to be dangerous!

[@SteeringSteel]

This channel is great, I can't wait to see how this house progresses. Thanks for the videos and good luck do you folks.

[@homemadehome5575]

Thomas Holmes Your welcome. Glad you like it. The house is a gold mine of good content to make videos. Thanks for the comment.

[@peggyt1243]

Kudos to you for taking on such a project house. Must be honest, if it was me, I would just start over from scratch.

[@homemadehome5575]

peggyt1243 The house isn't that bad, the price difference of fixing this house and building a new one would be massive. I could buy and fix at least 4 or 5 of these houses for the amount.

[@christinebarker6389]

Wow...I wish you lived closer to us we would have you over to help us. You are doing exactly what we want done in our small home.

[@homemadehome5575]

Ha, good luck with your home.

[@AverageGuyWoodworking]

[@homemadehome5575]

Average Guy Woodworking Thank you Jeff, glad your enjoying.

[@Swilliamf]

Really enjoying the new channel!

[@homemadehome5575]

Swilliamf Thanks, hoping to get some more projects up soon.

[@utseay]

You are a genius!

[@surattius]

I like the style very much. Helpful.

[@joepifer1985]

do you have to have a contractors license to do that work?

[@MrUlfang]

Great video. A fixer upper is a way to cut those costs and make a home you guys both will enjoy. Sweat equity.Well Done.

[@homemadehome5575]

MrUlfang Thank you. I happy to be able to work on it, but I sure wish I could just snap my fingers and it be done.

[@cowsofsuffolk2297]

Cool video. You really make it look simple. Even more detail would be cool too. Thanks

[@homemadehome5575]

[@einsteindrieu5117]

Nice !

[@homemadehome5575]

Thanks Iron Man

[@MadarakiFran]

I got a splinter just from watching him taking out all that wood.

[@TheOomgosh]

What type of permit did you have to get for your remodel? And was there any engineering required to do any of the work you are doing? I ask because when I get to the point I am ready to remodel parts of my house, I want to make sure I am doing thing the right way instead of having to rip everything out because I did something wrong. I am sure it is different in every state, but where do you get your info for building codes?

[@homemadehome5575]

TheOomgosh It's refered to as a renovation permit with me as the owner and contractor. I just drew a sketch of what I was doing. In certain cases you might have to have an engineer but I didn't for any of my stuff. The engineering would come into play with large unsupported spans and load bearing situations. The easiest thing to do if you are unsure of what you are doing is call your local inspectors office, where you got the permit and talk to the person in charge. For the most part I just have a good idea of what to do from experience. And if I do something wrong, I'll just change it. Inspections are done in several phases so most of the time it's not a huge deal to change something.

[@TheOomgosh]

Homemade Home thanks for the info!

[@NeilRichard]

Odd question, was there tar paper on top of that diagonal sub-floor?

[@homemadehome5575]

Neil Richard There was. It's pretty common.

[@NeilRichard]

Homemade Home​ So I'm learning. The house we just moved into was built that way. Thanks!

[@VladimirNemchinov]

Looks good man! Good camera work as well! Who films you? Your wife?

[@AndrewBrowner]

good stuff, i use that sawzall to the nails trick daily if you havent already try the carbide demo blades, milwuakee and diablo both make good ones, i noticed youre using ridgid cordless tools in this video but in your new ones you have milwuakee, what happened there? would like to see a video on what tools you use and your experiences with what ones were great purchases and what ones were a mistake

[@homemadehome5575]

I liked the rigid drill and driver.....I just have a Milwaukee set now, which beats the socks off any brand I've ever used, the drill will break your wrist it's so powerful and the impact driver can't be stopped......same for the batteries.

[@AndrewBrowner]

so did the rigid wear out and fail or did they get stolen/sold if they failed what was the part/failure mode

[@ArthLud]

Great! How about money? How much did it cost?

[@homemadehome5575]

Barely anything. I reused the door and barely paid anything to have the siding milled. $50 - $100 and a couple days.

[@ArthLud]

Oh, I'm sorry, I meant the total cost of renovation. And how many hours of labour?

[@femineity]

You're very knowledgeable on how to do all that stuff! Where did you learn your skill set? Please pardon me if this question has already be asked and answered. I'm new to your channel (I subbed today :-)

[@homemadehome5575]

By just doing it and no worrying about knowing how to be honest. I've had people show me some stuff, but most of it's simple......just tear something out and replace it. Look at other framing and do the same thing or pictures, etc.

[@femineity]

Wow...I guess it takes trusting your instincts, being brave and just doing it, huh! I hope I'm one day blessed to be paired with a smart, brave and willing partner (husband) like you to work on home improvement projects with! I use to watch my grandfather as a kid, do projects around the house. It always fascinated me to see him delve into projects and complete them successfully! I'm enjoying your channel a great deal. Thanks for responding and best of luck to you in all your future endeavors!

[@homemadehome5575]

Thank you very much, your grandfather sounds important to you. I always wanted that kind of grandfather, you are very fortunate. For me, my Dad is like that, lots of projects. Good luck finding that future husband of yours!

[@baloneyjusticecheezedog]

oh man.. I wish I found your videos before I had to take a door that had been used on one garage and reused on a current garage.. I'm embarrassed to say my door hanging skill are so sub par, and I had to settle on door just barely closing with jams that do not look level.

[@NoName-cl1up]

Were you homeschooled?? How did you learn so much??

[@MattB-zm2uk]

No sheathing on the exterior?!?!?

[@mattwelniak3362]

You should grow the hair back out lol love the videos.

[@jp91484]

quit using your hot wife for clickbait shes not in any of these

[@Sacrificepain66]

when are you gone to have more video

[@homemadehome5575]

blacksmith JR Hopefully this week, but in general I'm going to be fairly irregular on this channel and will depend on progress and if I have time to film and edit.
