Trim details and Stair details | Site Visit #25

[@trinidadgonzalez7277]

How could you not appreciate this content? I’m always blown away by the details 🤯 Thank you for this

[@markwells7238]

Can't get enough of these site visits! Your company's work is always so incredible. Looks like the neighboring unit had some funky electrical done (18:43). Hopefully fixing the wires, so they are not proud of the studs, will not be too difficult.

[@jamesmills6766]

Love your channel!

[@VenturaWorkshop]

Thank you so much for making these videos. Greets from a starting builderfirm in the Netherlands.

[@ColeSpolaric]

A lot of these details aren't even my taste, but I'm just impressed by how well executed they are. Keep up the good work guys!

[@Anthony-es7py]

Such a detailed man I enjoy him explaining

[@stephenobrien2408]

I watch every single one of their videos, but could never ever afford their work. These guys are absolute professionals. I keep telling myself, one day, one day. Probably not though lol

[@kimsmoke17]

Awesome details. Play the video at 2x speed to not be bored.

[@franklinmade396]

On the bifold cabinet door you show at 8:48, will there be a guide track to constrain the top right door panel? Also are you using your normal door hinge for the left panel of the bifold? Any additional details on that setup would be much appreciated. I have seen the Hettich Wingline 770 which offers a track at the top.

[@lrc87290]

3D scanner sounds neat. I just needed to find a stud in porcelain tile shower wall to put a screw for a glass spray panel top support. Didn't know I was going to need it or I would have put blocking in. I did have some pics of when the just the Wedi was up. Wedi has big metal washers so I was able to locate the screw/washer with a rare earth magnet. Just barely though.

[@colinstu]

Is there a concern about that bifold cabinet door hitting the wall there? Is there an elegant way to protect the wall and door? (Prevent from hitting, or a stop that takes the brunt)

[@Marcobroomar]

Not sure if the chukka boots are a good match for that specific plaid

[@richardlawson714]

I just want to thank you for losing the go pro on a stick. those shows were really difficult for me to watch. Love your attention to detail.

[@andybrooke1961]

I am building my house when the weather changes and I will be borrowing some of your ideas

[@NSBuilders]

Please do. That’s why we share.

[@acdnintheusa]

Nick, On the next walk through can you please touch on how you’ll handle air filtering on the returns for the Mitsubishi horizontal ducted handlers. Thank you.

[@NSBuilders]

We will have a ERV system and Marc 13 filters on the returns for the Mitsubishi.

Love your site visits. As to historical preservation, I get it and at what point does the energy and resident comfort benefits outweigh preservation? That said, considering your attention to detail both preservation and energy savings are doable it'll just take more vision by code regulators.

[@RyanSnodgrass]

Who makes those electrical switch covers at 2:25 seconds into the video? I can't seem to find them. I did find these, but they aren't readily available. www.protectiveproducts.com/products/paint-guards.html

[@vhostovich]

Nick, how many projects do you have going on now? Everything seems to be thought out in infinite detail.

[@sergeyb8]

3D scan is an awesome idea, is this something you are pioneering (for construction) or already a common thing? And can the client have this data for reference letter on?

[@klundin]

Curious about the 3d scan coming up.

[@greenridgepropertysolution3211]

With the advancements in LEDs now why would you go with wall washers?

[@lrc87290]

Question: How do you install cabinets that are supposed to be set on the counter top or at least look like they are. Previously I believe you said you would shim the counter up. Correct? If so that would not work for me with counter flush with door faces. Love all the detail explaining.

[@NSBuilders]

We leave left 1/16 of play to slide in. Shimming is paper thin from below

[@lrc87290]

@@NSBuilders Make sense. Better than waiting to install counter top cabinets.

[@Takumi-San]

08:49 - how will that handle be prevented from being damaged or causing damage given proximity to the wall?

[@NSBuilders]

Hinge has a 86* stop

Does anyone know the name of the infloor heating system plywood panels being used?

[@ccwnyc5671]

One correction: we never saw the Kuiken trim or baseboard go in. But it looks installed right. 😁

[@ninoefendic7377]

To be completely clear right of the bat.. whatever you guys do charge it is 100% fair lol the work you do is amazing. But every time I watch I think to myself, who tf paid for this to be done lol Sometimes it has to be that the cost of reno is more than what the value will be after! Am I wrong?

[@KurtMGibbs]

Older windows can be just about as efficient as new windows.

[@lrc87290]

I am literally commenting as I am watching this. I stop the video for previous comment and was thinking if this guy did a job in South Jersey I would work for him. But then I thought it is unrealistic to think he would do out of state jobs. Start the video back up and he is on the phone with an out-of-stater.

[@sergeyb8]

You can always "make" the windows beyond repair :) Joking aside, what a dumb rule. Condo association should have picked the style and supplier and that would solve the problem. Or replace entire building at once with a one-time assessment. That's what my rental property building management is doing

[@sergeyb8]

@@aayotechnology Yes, but it's a one time deal. Resolve it once by locking in design and supplier so condo owners can replace their own windows but going to single source (with a quick approval if need be). If this is too scary for historical society then like I said, condo association should replace all windows once every X years by going with the same approval process.
