So glad you’ll have heat and cooling when working when needed. The doors are marvelous! Paddy fantastic craftsmanship!

[@wengweng8476]

Also thanks so much for telling your brother to crack on on his channel doing it ourselves it's brilliant I'm really enjoying all the new stuff everybody must watch that channel ❤ Cant wait for the bridge build that will be amazing 😀

[@chriswilford3576]

Yes, ‘Doing it ourselves’ Is Michael’s channel 😊

[@jotann6430]

I’ve a suggestion for the library? Each person who assisted in the restoration, have a photo w/attached write up of their job.

[@elisabethhopson5639]

Thank you Paddy for your incredible expertise. The doors look amazing. I think Simon smiled when Yanis suggested he could be a father to him. Their relationship is brilliant to watch on screen. Warmth in the winter will help move the project on. You must be very happy Billy. 😊

[@busterdee8228]

Daddy Simon. Well deserved 😉

[@lucpar23]

Are there any nuns left from that order who remember living in the convent? I would be awesome to take them through and show them your progress and get their reactions.

[@DevonaRavenhold]

I wonder how they would feel about the future bar being in their worshiping space. Lol! It would be amazing to meet some of them though!

[@wengweng8476]

I recon they would love the bar idea and the amazing work done by everyone

[@janmcclure6239]

I think I remember that they went to Canada (?)

[@Gramma_Holly]

@@DevonaRavenhold Well, they did have a wine cellar.....Actually, Catholics aren't opposed to drinking 🙂

[@weaselbrain1]

Nuns and priests will have an occasional celebratory tipple

[@TRoth858]

Simon & Yanis are the newest comedy team. It's nice that Yan has learned enough English to get what's being said, and able to have come backs. Those doors are awesome. I love that Paddy is a master, and won't settle for anything less than perfect. He's just like Simon. We'll done Billy for hiring nothing but the best of the best.

[@wendyyoung1897]

Just saw doors Paddy replicated for Chateau de Lalacelle yesterday. They were absolutely beautiful just like these.

[@agnetaorum4616]

Paddy does amazing woodwork‼️ The doors are absolutely stunning❣️Interesting to see how much the oak windows have lightened vs the new backdoor!

[@marymcandrew7667]

Billy, please thank Paddy from all of us for letting you film him working. I know he doesn't like to be filmed, but it's great to observe a master at work!

[@gailpacolt4353]

The craftsmanship is incredible. It's just stunning. The vision for the Convent is closer every day. Like watching a child grow. Exciting and sometimes mundane. Your videos (and Alex) always entertain throughout the process. Thank you for all the hours of hard work. It is a privilege to follow your lives❣️

[@20figaro]

At home day off, taking a break from cleaning. And up pop my fav KZbinr's ... have a great one guys ... looks awesome ... from Calgary Canada

[@Tuscanyflower68]

Great video. Paddy you are a Master and it’s a privilege watching you install your beautiful creations. Yannis has a new love interest and that’s wonderful‼️😍 Billy is getting to be a true professional videographer and I am enjoying every minute‼️😍

[@pamelawright1369]

Nice hairstyle Yanis. Doors look great, thank you for sharing 😊

[@julieknowles7063]

Love the woodwork. Paddy is a real craftsman and there aren't many of them left. The convent will be stunning when you reach the finish line.

[@debsguitar2]

the new doors are just beautiful !!! my very favorite part of my morning, coffee and the convent :)))

[@lindacushing7780]

Billy, the doors look wonderful. I hope Yanis enjoyed his weekend. The hallway is going to look wonderful when finished.

[@Rain-Peters]

So will you have to re osmo the spots Paddy cut off? Looks fantastic.

[@juliequinlan6564]

The doors just look stunning! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏💙💙💙💙 Are we going to see the updates at Simon’s farm before he goes?

[@kaceesavage]

I think it would be cool if you took a picture from the same position front and back of the convent as each door and window goes in so we can watch them all change from white to wood. Paddy is a great carpenter, the doors look incredible.

[@kellythomas6507]

The doors are beautiful, Billy. Crack on!

[@johnwilliamtuckey2796]

I don't know if you realize how much of affection I have for you and your family! I so look forward for all your family. I am a 60 year old gay man and look to you Billy and your friends and family as though you are my own. So let me take this time out to thank you for your input into my life. Even have your Chateau and Michael's bee hanging proudly in my home. Love you guy's! ❤

[@jacquelinenoble6640]

The doors are absolutely stunning, as is the rest of the work. Fabulous. 😊🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

More steps forward, fantastic. And Yanis is extra handsome with his hair pulled back.

[@juliejohnson-hunt7134]

I was just thinking this!

[@GeneneCroy]

Heat! Alright let's Crack On! See you tomorrow!!

[@sharonanderson346]

The doors are stunning! When you panned out, you see all the other windows that need replacing. One thing at a time. 😊

[@kencase2179]

Looks like Billy has a bit more Osmo to apply to the doors.

[@sharonjackson1445]

Hey yinnis, Billy, simon, you guys are Really getting it done Around there in france I love france. It's so Interesting. My family Love your vlogs.😊

[@mradford10]

Doors look stunning. Really lifts the colour of the stone walls. Well done getting them in.

[@laurelbrennan6295]

Doors look great. The wood looks like honey. Beautiful!

[@frdmbe9258]

I do hope Paddy has at least one apprentice at hand, learning from the master himself! Paddy's craftsmanship seems superb, perfect for the convent and other fine buildings/chateaus.

[@marynelldoan1451]

I just watched Pattie doing a great job on windows for Chateau de La Lacelle. It must be fantastic to have such a wonderful artisan available to help restore all these beautiful old ladies.

[@MJPH5]

The beautiful doors really finish off the exterior of that first renovated section of the convent! 🤩

[@irishdancer2753]

Billy, your new doors and AC/Heating units look great! Your new doors are lovely!

[@inliquidspace]

Just a little bit scary, watching that big sheet of glass flexing above your head as you remove the frame😮

[@LaurenGlass-i7x]

Incredible doors and progress ! I have been watching you redo the convent since day one and it is amazing the large jobs you have completed ! Crack on!

[@jeanniehall1440]

Paddy is such the EXPERT in mfgr the doors and windows. I'm noticing that other cheateau owners are relying on him now to .. Beautiful work as ALWAYS ❤❤❤

[@elizabethbesco4758]

What a major goal completed!

[@pandgb]

I really enjoy your videos. You've had such a vision right from the start. Great to see it stating to really take shape

[@heartshapedisle]

Paddy's such an amazing craftsman. But oh no there's 3 coats of Osmo gone from that door that will need redoing 😮

[@stephguido1333]

I was thinking the exact same thing as I watched Paddy chisel down the edge of the door

[@assassinlexx1993]

Will you make steel covers, to put over the oak treads? So it won't get damaged by by wheels like the electric lift.

[@frdmbe9258]

Yeah, heat is on! (isn't there a song: the heat is on....? Heat even in the sunshine and thx goodness ready for winter. I sense tremendous appreication for improved winter working conditions....

[@TLMarzewski]

It’s going to be so nice having heat! The doors are just spectacular. 😊

[@Smalfry47]

Those old doors would be awesome to build a reading “get away” in a backyard…….. use them for the walls……. Wish I was in France! Yanis…. How was Paris?

[@judyburrows1289]

What a difference it makes to have the natural oak windows and doors. Soooo much better than the white plastic stuff!

[@wengweng8476]

Billy and Alex you really do need to add music to your videos so much better x it makes them memorable there's a reason why for many years they've used music in advertisement people like to listen to these things in the background it makes it memorable and it would make the viewership go up I like to listen to the music in the background while I'm going about my day or doing something so you really need to consider using music on all your videos i really do love your channel

[@bedtimetales4890]

Oh please no music

[@shanacrous2214]

Is it a work visa problem that Simon returns to the UK? Doors looking fabulous.

[@jackierice4254]

It us a problem caused by Brexit. He can only stay for so long at a time as we are not part of the E U now.

[@XantheWilliams]

He may also have work commitments in the uk

I have great appreciation for skilled craftsmen and tradesmen, and it's a joy to watch them work. Those wood doors and windows are really elevating the convent to a whole other level.

Billy you are a wonderful person, complementary and respectful to all your mates. I applaud your parents and elders for bringing up you and your siblings with amazing manners. 🥰

[@mradford10]

Did Michael have any bridge railing left over to use around the basement stairs? I remember about a year ago that you had purchased a flat pack railing online but you weren’t sure of the quality? Imagine that will go in as soon as you’ve sealed the stone floor in the hallway. It’s all looking amazing.

Amazing, brand new antique doors and brand new modern heating/cooling systems, splendid!

So glad those doors are done. They look amazing. The old ones were playing havoc with my OCD because of the gap at the bottom. 😂

[@gingerschatshow]

I love the new doors and your A/C and heating will be so much better during this up and coming winter - so you guys stay warm while finishing the library and Hallway. Way to go guys. Billy - are you going to use the same door pattern for the ensuite rooms ? As in hand made oak ?

Hopefully, he will share what he has accomplished in his farmhouse with us before he goes. Love from Pennsylvania, USA 💕🌷🐻

I never cease to be amazed at your work ethic Billy Your skills have no bounds and your dedication is unsurpassable But please remember to take time out both for your own physical and mental health but also to enjoy your family In a blink of an eye children grow up so fast so make time to build your memories Not just with your children but your wife also ❤❤

[@PatchworkUSA]

Well, of course, his family life is private so you won't see alot of it on the videos. Editing video footage at the end of each work day is time consuming so I'm sure they, especially Billy, decide to get a video done and uploaded to KZbin that only is about the convent restoration work and then go home. I'm sure we don't see 95% of their home life.

[@cgp1442]

What would look nice is a large half moon flagstone patio just outside those back doors. Or if you prefer straight lines or cemetrical, a large rectangle flagstone patio
