[@gpslightlock1422]

Some real kahunas to get into that fireplace. Incredible talent in the restoration.

[@bosse641]

What a lovely fireplace.

[@mikederucki]

Matching the color on that grout is no easy task. Hat off to the job overall

[@Dom21221]

Roger looks healthier now. Good thing he can smile. Awesome!

[@darthrevan2063]

What happened To him?

[@Pure_KodiakWILD_Power]

[@Pure_KodiakWILD_Power]

@@darthrevan2063 some unknown illness...

[@themurph7780]

3:49 I don't want to say it's one of a kind. 4:15 most of the material is one of a kind!

Bernie Sanders fireplace turned out nice

[@glorygloryhallelujah]

I was gonna say Larry David

[@jamesfraser4173]

But, his name was Bob, wasnt it?

[@rdarrett3635]

I instantly smiled when I saw Ro-gah!

[@Duke_Silver22]

[@sweetkellymay]

[@rexcherry33]

[@juanresendiz56jr]

[@AndrewJJ-0114]

[@sharpshooter012345]

I wish the owner of the house with the fireplace were Larry David! "Do you respect brick?" "PRETTY, PRETTY, PRETTY GOOD."

[@Big-Char.]

Grate jewab Mak!

[@simonsonjh]

For the porch swing, I think I would have installed a joist hanger on those cross-blocks instead of just two screws in the end grain.

[@rdarrett3635]

“All I wanted was a darn swing, now I have to take down my porch and add more structure. Salesman didn’t tell me all of that.”

[@ShannonTheMojito]

Very informative

[@MisterRay11]

I was ready for him to pull that brick out and find a pair of spectacles from Ben Franklin himself

[@verygoodboy2688]

Incredible mason

[@joseph-ine452]

True pleyas right there

[@rogerkock2456]

A first rate masonry repair on the fireplace.

[@geoffmorse4366]

It’s called hardboard. Masonite is a brand name. Other manufacturers make the same material.

[@jamesfraser4173]

In our apartment, we have heat pump/mini-split, which means we can pick one temperature, eliminating the cycling, and reducing our power bill. Should this not be a part of your discussion?

[@PJJ196]

American Craftsman in 1894.. dont get much better

[@chineseredneck1211]

why wouldn't you put some hard foam or cushion on the floor in case something dropped?

[@aaronstrine2111]

The fireplace guy even sounds like Larry David lol!

[@jasonsgroovemachine]

I do wish ya'll would talk more about the downsides of "smart" appliances and thermostats. The security on them is terrible.

[@RepTheFam]

"some wood screws" when they're some beefy shear screws.

[@avalon449]

Ross and his Beato O’Rourke impression.

[@MustPassTruck]

Where were you guys for Casey Jones and his front porch swing?

[@ScottWinter-rm2of]

Literally thought they were fixing Larry David's fireplace lol

[@stanleykeith6969]

Hi Richard, if you read this do you have a video that tells me if a radiator can be plug up and how to unclog it and if I drain the system how do I flush it out. Its up on the second floor. 9 room house and sometimes I hear water dripping on the burners. I need your Help. Sorry, I wanted to send this to you, but I did not know where to send it to. HELP ! 11/12/2019

[@stanleykeith6969]

I wonder why he wanted the swing that way and not at the end of the pouch where he could have had it side ways with more room to swing and the 2x6 was right there and did not need to add wood. I think he will be replacing that screen behind the swing.

[@MagnusFireplaceBuild]

The mason must have watched some Mike Haduck videos before tackling that job

"It's almost perfect". Some people are perennial complainers.

[@Engineer9736]

You two are the critical complainers

[@bobidstein450]

@@Engineer9736 Um, no...... Pointing out the conduct of another isn't complaining, but nice try. Tu Quoque.

Old Episode! Reupload!

[@general4str]

Actually, they uploaded the individual pieces before, this is the full episode which wasn't uploaded in it's entirety before.

[@HarlemGreatest]

general4str This is a rerun. The whole episode

[@Pure_KodiakWILD_Power]

pbs saturdays, new episodes for you. or buying a membership online.

[@nicklk]

Roger is hurting :(

[@verdatum]

You can totally reproduce that brick. It just requires molding and firing your own bricks using clay with a sufficiently similar chemical makeup. No big deal, right??

[@floyedDenver]

ok boomer

[@moosestubbings1853]

Bob looks exactly like Bernie Sanders #VoteBernie2020

[@murph914]

Love how he got a public tv ch to rebuild the antique chimney for him for free.

[@jasoncabrera829]

First

[@preservationworksltd.2177]

The mason has fine skills and attention to details however removing perfectly fine lime mortar to then point in cement mortar because you want the color to match- no. Doing that removed important historic character and replaced it with an incorrect material. Lime mortar is readily available to be made just as easily as type n. Or one could use NHL (natural hydraulic lime) and fine sand to accomplish what the original builder of that beauty would have expected in a repair. And it is relevant beyond keeping with the traditions even with this indoor fireplace because movement does happen in old buildings and like the fine mason said- the mortar crumbled just like it should have... lime mortar has very different properties than Portland cement/lime mortar.
