Removing and replacing a Termite infested Post and Beam-DIY

[@user-lf7en6rf8m]

Excellent, i love learning these types of repairs from tradesmen who have been doing this work for a while, im fairly new to the trades , thank you for sharing

[@MRoberson68]

Thanks for the comment, glad my video helped! Subscribe and share,I'll becoming out with a new video soon with a tool I designed and patented for enlarging existing holes..

Looking to replace my post. Pretty much have the same front porch set up. This video is a huge help.

[@cidpusa700]

Excellent video , would just placing a bracket on the cut end of the beam also work?

[@willy8477]

ik kijk liever naar jou colega die klest te minste niet zo veel als jij, maar je werk is geweldig

[@khue6377]

Excellent job supporting the roof. Great video thank you

[@MonstersNotUnderTheBed]

Fantastic video. Good audio.

Thanks. We have a carport that's attached to the roof of our house. We purchased this home 10 months ago in Georgia and whoever built the carport did not use metal brackets and attached the beams directly onto the support beams. We are attempting to sister the beams until we can hire a professional to remove these beams. My concern is that by hammering the support beams while sistering the beam we can crack the roofing material, and cause leaks, please advise.

Very nice video. I also like the vacuum there cleaning after yourself. Thumbs up!

[@MRoberson68]

Rafael, thanks for the comment. A clean job is a good job, new vids coming soon.

Isn’t most of that beam good other than the part protruding beyond the roof? When the new beam tied back to the house don’t think its stronger than the original at that corner. It will rot again at the roof line again, see that all the time. Maybe cap it with galvanized sheet metal to extend the life. The post could be saved, splicing with new wood, epoxy and screw. Had a few done, still standing after many years, no indication of rot or weakness. Then maybe cheaper, labor wise, replacing with new post.

Question: How would I anchor 10 foot posts with vinyl sleeves to hold up the overhang on my porch. Would I shoot nails through the vinyl and 4x4, or would the weight of the overhang be enough to keep the post in place? I thought about taking a pocket hole jig and placing a screw through the vinyl and 4x4, but I don't want to damage the vinyl. How can I make the post secure and strong without damaging vinyl?

Nice Job! Question., was the replacement post made of Cedar?

[@GreatXu]

For your new post, what kind of the wood is?

[@moustachemike7128]

question: why not use support brackets to hold the top as well..?

[@tonio909]

Not needed, gravity provides enough support.

[@QVL75]

Excellent! I've always been curious as to how a beam and a post of the roof overhang are replaced without the roof overhang collapsing during the replacement.

[@briancarroll3288]

Did you need a permit to replace post and beam ??

[@sarveshkakar]

I could not find out how you guys lifted up big beams?

[@joseordonez2996]

Im replacing ledger board, can I reuse lag bolts holes?

[@siulseyer8053]

Great job.

[@IWBVS]

looks great! are permits needed to go into the wall? since it almost looks supporting. also, is there a minimum distance we have to go into the wall before toe-nailing?

[@dattape2828]

Did you replace it with pressure treated wood? doesnt look like it. pressure treated wood + solid stain = long lasting

[@TechDanZ]

Looks like he used Cedar which should be just fine.

[@calvinzhu7438]

8:02 A post to beam connector needed!

[@adamcturnbull]

Is there any treatment you sprayed on the post ?? My concern would be that those little buggers will just appreciate a new post to gnaw on. Thank you for the video. It was very informative

[@jasoncress8435]

Where can I buy that bracket?

[@bigazmark]

When did you stop hosting"Intentional Talk"?

[@MuellerMechanical]

Nice, I like it

CHRIST accepts you right where you are no matter what sins you've done. He especially picks us that don't seem special in this life so that no man should glory lest it be in His eternal charity that saves us from our own corruptness. Saved by faith in GOD's blood for ever and ever. This life is a vapor. CHRIST is coming very soon. Seek evidence of Noah's flood. This world was judged once and will be a second time. Read Romans,Corinthians,Psalms,Prov.,Matthew, etc. Proverbs 18:2 A fool takes no pleasure in understanding, but only in expressing his own heart.

Thanks EDtv...

[@ed2345]

Super gay

[@miguelpinzon4783]

forgot to install PC6Z, Tie Post Cap and Strong-Tie HUC210-2

[@kookiethebear]

It would have been A LOT easier and more cost effective to have spliced the beam (at the column) to replace the rotted end...and no less structurally sound. No change to the design (which allows water to run back and pool, creating rot) means the owner will see this repair again.

[@anzbatman2297]

I tried to do this but couldn't get the beam acrosst. Cheers for the vid.

Thanks for the nice comment, several comments are rude and I try to ignore them.

[@ed2345]

Sounds like you fucked up

[@rodnewman3534]

great clip but i need to know the type of timber used. You also skipped a lot of detail by saying what you did instead of demonstrating. I am a untrained beginner, I want to learn all the details about the little things that you take for granted, eg: demonstrate propping up the house instead of talking about it.

[@FirstNameLastName-okayyoutube]

58 seconds in and skipped over how to safely do the raising.

[@strokerace4765]

This makes me nervous

[@walterpayerl9327]

nice job, just a small grammatical point, there is no such word as "acrosst" or "acrossed"

[@tomaputo6647]

Hahaha

You're like this old house. You show the AFTER picture of how you remove/inserted something. Then explain how you did it but won't SHOW how you did it. Strange. Like a High School chemistry teacher. Only show half the process.
