Starting Our Dream Back Patio Makeover!

[@terryspencer7512]

Keep doing what your doing!!! You guys are awesome. And don’t worry about the negative comments. What you two have accomplished at your age is awesome!!! So again keep doing what your doing.

[@timdyer7692]

You two make such a good team! What you are doing is fine, if there are any issues years in the future, you can address them at that time, as you stated.

[@bobbysharp]

I'm an advocate for doing things that I can do rather than paying someone to do it for me. At the end of the day/project I've learned new skills. But there is a point and tasks where a pro makes more sense. You do your research that's the way to go at it!

[@itsandrewalexander]

You guys are so cute. I always love your videos. Ever since yall started doing these vlog style construction videos it has only made me want to watch your content more. I love seeing the progress and what you guys are doing. Keep doing what yall are doing.

[@beeleywood7796]

I really like these Sunday update videos, thank you for taking the time to make them.

[@Woodbrew]

So happy to hear that! Thank you SO MUCH for watching them!

[@beeleywood7796]

@@Woodbrew No, thank you.

[@mayorstoner3459]

You know what the say about "opinions", especially on social media. Do what you think is right for you and you'll be fine. You're gonna make mistakes from time to time and that's ok. This is how we learn. Everything looks fantastic so far!!

[@Woodbrew]

👍🏻👍🏻

[@johnporter8896]

Ive got three stumps in the garden. I cut the trees down 7 years ago. They’ve still not rotted away and this is rainy England. You really wont need to worry about for a long time.

You know that the best drivers sit at home on a sofa ;)

[@Woodbrew]

Lol

[@jerrywoodworking3436]

It’s your land you have the right to do what you want with it as long as you’re respecting the trees and reusing it and you are don’t worry about what pinheads say

[@IEnjoyCreatingVideos]

Great work on the place Dylan & Molly! It's really taking shape :) Thanks for sharing the video with us!💖👌👍😎JP

[@Woodbrew]

Thanks so much! ❤️

[@IEnjoyCreatingVideos]

Your very welcome :) Have a great new week!😎

[@michellafleur5655]

It is a beautiful patio you have there my friends and job well done. I am pretty sure that all the comments made are for helping and you ultimately know what you want and how you want it done. Can't wait for the next video. Big fan.

[@aubandjoe1778]

Lookin' GOOD! That slab really belongs there. And I almost hate to say this, but I'm enjoying these videos at least as much as your project builds!

[@Woodbrew]

Agreed! We actually are really enjoying making these videos! Build videos will be back, but we love to have these kinds to look back on too!

[@guybowers9094]

Good thing that you are looking ahead and planning for that. Anything you can think of and do now will make life much easier and congrats to you both.

[@helderlage]

there are so many people keen on giving advices, that they do not take for them self... hard opinions, are nothing more but opinions!... take the good stuff and just ignore anything else... both of you deserve the best, nothing more, so, ignore evilness

[@Woodbrew]

❤️❤️

[@wraith2440]

Fairhope is my home town. I haven’t lived there for many years but when I was younger I helped a friend cut down many trees over time. I cut a large pine tree on my property and in the six years between cutting it and moving away I never experienced issues. I think in the case of a pine tree the resin in the stump preserves the stump for a longe time. I know that pine stumps left above ground last for many years. I chipped fat wood off of pine stumps and it is a tough job. You did good. You always seem to use common sense and that will serve you well. Have fun.

[@landyherndon3517]

You two are very inspiring.

[@Woodbrew]

🥺💕

[@WesleyAring]

Happy Easter! Enjoying your Sunday vids

[@Woodbrew]

Happy Easter to you too! Thanks so much!

[@cliff5240]

A hard working couple! You will continue to go far. I enjoy your videos. Sounds like you got a great deal on your patio. It cost us almost twice that 3 years ago. We did do some stamping around the edge and some more curves in ours.

[@mattrozzo]

Looks good to me. I don’t know how fast people expect wood to rot when it’s sunk 6’ underground. The wood you cut down above ground rots faster and it still takes years to rot entirely. That stump underground is gonna take a century to rot away even 50%

[@TheMoonlightCraftsman]

Congratulations on getting married and the new house!

[@Woodbrew]

Thanks!

[@mechminded2207]

Also, you are both doing an excellent job.

[@scottmorris4914]

Good job guys.

[@Woodbrew]

Thanks!

[@drdanbhcmg]

I think the patio looks great!

[@BKampa]

Keep on keepin’ on, you guys rock! 🤙🏻

[@bobleeswoodshop7919]

👍👍👍 looks great!!

[@Woodbrew]

Thank you! ❤️

[@johnfithian-franks8276]

I agree with most of what you are saying but at some point along the way it has to unencrypted for the search engine to understand what you are searching for

[@gregshaw4280]

Job well done☺👍

[@kevin_delgado]

I would strongly consider adding a culvert in that dip area.

[@Woodbrew]

There isn’t ever really any water in there surprisingly. I thought we might have to when we bought the place, but after talking to neighbors and having several multi day storms, no water has ran through there. We had 11” of rain last week and had zero water in the bottom.

[@tomcoffey483]

Look good 👍

[@TheSirStu]

16:57 Burp! 😂

[@Woodbrew]

Lolol

[@mysticvalleywoodworks2777]

Good video. Concrete looks good.

[@gritter781]

Please let me know where you're finding that 98 octane gas!

[@matiaslatorre9087]

Hello friends, I would like to know what is the make and model of your safety glasses greetings from Chile. You are great!

[@guybowers9094]

Not sure what the cost would be but could you put in a culvert pipe in that low spot in the road

[@RevIlikai]

surprised there isn't any mesh in 6" of concrete, unless it has fiber mesh in the concrete. Take a 1/2 or 3/4 inch copper pipe about 3 foot long. drill small holes and cap one end. Put a garden hose connector on the other end and hook it to a hose, turn on water, and start shoving it in the area thats going to sink, this will wet it and compact it so that you can finish filling it. We did this when they cut a new sewer entrance to my house... got rid of that mound in two weeks. I built a dry concrete block wall about 4 rows high and filled the holes with mud and ran a hose to in it like a vibrator in wet concrete... wall is still standing after 5 years.

[@michaelpattie9244]

I just found your channel and oh I am enjoying your videos I was curious on which state you are living in thanks

[@Woodbrew]

Thank you! Alabama ☺️

[@JohnColgan.]

Hmmm, have you bridged your Damp Proof Membrane for the house brickwork? The concrete shouldn't go right up to the house brick, should be a drainage gap, preferably filled with gravel so that rain water on your patio will not soak into your brick & cause damp inside the house! (Same reason Molly dug a trench for gravel around the rest of the house)

[@AndrewBuilt]

Hard to beat working on your own property. How did you ever get that massive stump out?

[@ZrubekFamily]

They didn't get it out, they buried it.

[@InsideCenterDani]

Compared to other KZbinrs you should consider yourselves lucky that your biggest controversy is about a stump. 😂

[@kodihull3820]

Need to flip your bar

[@Woodbrew]

👍🏻

[@dmacko]

Nobody knows what you are doing but you. For your age, you sure do know so much. I love your vids and look forward to the next video. Awesome work.

[@jaywashington2196]

First Love the videos btw

[@Woodbrew]

Woo hoo!!❤️

[@mechminded2207]

Please don't paint the house! Brick built is more common in the UK, so we experience proper upkeep more. If the house is painted you will change how it breaths, which can lead to damp issues (depending on where you are based). If you want to hide the brick, some free standing lattice in front may work better.

[@Zogg1281]

I can't believe you haven't got any mesh in the concrete!!! Err, you did say it get mad in the comments 😋😂 Hmm, just thinking about your stump issues 🤔 Well, it's kind of the spring so it's sap would have been rising so what you've done if bury a huge chunk of pine full of sap. From what I've learnt recently, this happens in regular pine stumps and the sap goes really hard and it can be chopped up and sold as "Fatwood" fire starters, which are meant to be the best thing to start a fire. What it means gor you is that you will more then likely end up with a fossilized tree stump buried in your back garden and due to the sap slowing decay the only movement you should see will be just soil and NOTHING to do with your stump!!! ....... Unless Dylan can't get a fire going in 10 years time, remembering reading this comment and digs up the garden again 😂🤣😂🤣😂. Re the thickness of your concrete pore, the guy's whole did it kind of do it for a living and if they say it will be fine that sounds good to me. At the end of the day they were missing out on a sale of the mesh. They definitely have the right attitude if they have the integrity to be happy to miss out on the commission as they know it wasn't needed. Any locals shout be asking for the concrete guy's phone number! 😂👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@Woodbrew]

Yea the stump is already black and reeeallly thick tar like. It’ll be years and years and years before we have/if we have any issues. Thank goodness for a tractor to bring in fill dirt if we have any issues!

[@kenkobra]

$3200 is a really good deal.

[@Woodbrew]

More than we planned, but happy we did it🤗

[@alexreid4131]

Love you guys and the success you’re having but gonna unsubscribe for now and check in again sometime in the future. Interested in your woodworking business but not in home maintenance. Between our property and helping various neighbors also on acreages of various sizes I get enough of that ha ha. Woodworking and the details of running a woodworking business is super interesting to me though. Seems right now you’re just documenting anything you’re doing in life. Maybe in an effort to grab folks searching for home improvement info or how to work chainsaws and tractors? I don’t know. And don’t blame you for the shotgun approach. But not for me. Once the dream shop is built and you start woodworking again I will be a very happy and willing subscriber.

[@scottmorris4914]

Think about the people providing all that feed back (stump) as supporters who want to make sure you succeed.

[@Westsidewood]

Young man you seem to know what you're doing. sorry you have to spend so much time defending a simple decision. I enjoy your content
