What our channel is about:
We bought this semi-detached bungalow in August 2022 and given ourselves 3years to flip the property and sell on. We have a target budget of £70,000! Natasha is the editor and video maker, while Rhys is the builder (a carpenter by trade). We plan on doing 95% of the work ourselves to keep costs down.
This channel is for documenting our experiences - Good or Bad. This is our first time doing anything like this with full times jobs! Can we stick within our budget? Will the building inspector pass each stage? and the biggest question...will we still be married at the end of the project? Subscribe to find out...

What on earth is that? A piece of plastic sticking out the wall? Exposed to the sun? ..
What the fuck is in your ears 😂 woke bricky 🤦🏼♂️
Who is he talking to
Just checking in, in case youtube unsubscribed me or something weird as i have missed the progress... just read the last comment, im glad you are both ok 👍 looking forward to progress 👌
Thank you, we’ve been working as hard as we can between all these bugs and sickness we’ve been getting😅 really trying to push to get in but Christmas 🎄 😅😂
Same here been wondering for a while if the guys had dissapeared
So true ❤ and chasing up the bloody building regs
Luckily building control have been ok so far 🤞😅 and we are getting close to needing the place plastered 👌 cannot wait
That's lovely on doing the same atm
It was a paint to do in the 30° heat I can tell you that for free! 😂
Do you do private jobs?
Nice 😊
Thank you 😊😊
The roof changes angles
@@patterdalezipsuzilil that makes sense 👍
Bloody BOOOOORING..............
Always did that with staffy blues.😊
They look amazing once cleaned and brushed on, I’ve headed WD 40 is good also
diy kitchen is not in Doncaster lol
We didn’t say it was? We stayed at Doncaster and driver over to south Kirkby the following forming 👍
You're not actually putting real weep vents in are you? Wow. Self build i suppose you've got control
😂😂😂 I’ve seen lots of the tik tok snags with fake weep vents, is that a normal thing to do? I paid for them so may aswell put them in 😂
@@Selfbuild_TheJenkins the legend of the weep holes 👍
Hope you guys are OK and the house is coming on well.
Hi Ched, thank you for checking in, we are both well👌 the house is coming along well but with both of us having covid of over the last month and trying to push to get the works done, we haven’t done much filming or had time to edit anything! We should really do an update/recap of what’s been happening 😅
They never look neat they only get in the way, they never look how you think they will in theory because you can’t have render be governed by a weeper.
Hi rob, yes we found this out the hard way 😅
Blocked by the plasterer😂😂
How did you know 😅
With your good foot
Yep 😅
Windows and doors next
You guessed it 👌
what we called between round thingi can any body let me know 😮
That’s why the houses are rubbish in UK
I wouldn’t say rubbish just different
Digger driver must of been a novice. If I was on it you wouldn’t need a spade
First time ever on one 👍
Never seen a weep hole weep
Exactly
Does that mean they are worthless or doing their job to allow ventilation?
@@paulsumner2524 seen enough fake ones and the walls are fine
Weeping air
@@Selfbuild_TheJenkins think its more were old and remember when they introduced weep vents and thought its a con.
Is it not a lot ? It’s this regs now
I’m not sure if this is regs, but it is what was proposed on my planning permission so I have kept to that specification 👍
Masterclass Kitchens? Made in South Wales!
We will have a look 👍
I have a painted shaker style DIY kitchens kitchen. Fantastic. Very happy with my choice. The pull out drawers in the lader cupboard are a must have. Infinitely better than shelves. We also have the 'kidney' corners and find these very effective. We store all our plates on them and it has no signs of struggling with the weight. We have a pull out bin too. I can't stand a beautiful kitchen ruined by an ugly bin!
Thank you, we will keep that in mind 👍
You said ‘we’ many times but I can only see men doing the work 🤭
Yes, we. My wife is in many of the shots, shovelling and taking out wheel barrows of muck, all while cleaning and tidying the building site and making my food and doing house hold chores.
How much is the rent a day?
I’m not sure if they do day rates we had it for 1 week
@@Selfbuild_TheJenkinsit took him that long to get into the bedroom
Making that look hard mate just use a wheelbarrow 😂
Just a DIY bricky and prefer moving small buckets of muck up the scaffold 😅
@@Selfbuild_TheJenkinswhat ever floats ya boat u
Keep that roof clear of fallen leaves
Luckily no trees around 😅
Made that a lot harder than it needed to be
Not a roofer so I’m not suprised 😅
szerintem a kasmír világosabb melegebb hatású,ha jól értettem a kérdést
Thank you, I think that’s what we are going to choose 😊
I hope you realize that aesthetics with painting should come last.
Just testing it out
Ww1 trench
Not far off 😅
I'll pick cashmere as i'm not a fan of dark coloured cabinet (except for dark/ navy blue with bronze gold finishes)....looking forward to the finished project❤
Thank you, I think that’s what we are going to go for 😊
Kitchens and bathrooms are something that is very important to buyers but I bet 99% of people never look in the cupboards when viewing a house. So spend on the visual elements not the fancy interior 'gadgets'. Great visualisation on the ipad, really shows it well. Island as a focal point might be good.
Hi ched, thank you for the advice, that’s quite true! Natasha is a dab hand at graphics and designing 👌
Freeloaders 😂
What do you mean? Free coffee? 😂
wondering what computer design system you are using as I find visualisation difficult
Hello, the actually kitchen layout and 3D design is on the DIY kitchen website, the drawing/Timelapse sketch is on the iPad using pro-create 😊
@@Selfbuild_TheJenkins thanks
Hi both Definitely spoiled for choice , normally the advice is don’t go for something that will quickly date . But with your plan to move on , this is probably not a consideration . Also not over spending on things is a valid concern , because you won’t necessarily get the investment back . Visual impact , with well thought out functionality is the best approach . Also with you both posting useful skills in design and construction , much can be achieved with minimal outlay . As a bit of a laugh the kitchen we still have , came from a DIY store some twenty years ago . It’s still going strong and shows no signs of giving up , it cost the princely sum of £2000 pounds . But will probably be replaced purely because of the dated looks , and even then some bits will finish up in the workshop . 😂. Bless you both as always .
We really thought we would have the kitchen designed and finished while we were at the showroom! It’s way too much to choose from, as for cost we keep cutting out the non essential but then feel like we are missing a treat by not getting what we want 😂 it’s way to hard trying to design the whole house ourselves we probably could have done with an interior designer 🙈
Great job as always. One quick question, if you put the bath on a plinth, will it not be a far bigger step down when getting out of it?
It will be higher but we have tested it, it’s easy enough to get in and out, and makes it easier on your back if needing to wash your kids
@@Selfbuild_TheJenkins great stuff
Hi both How do you intend to prevent water ingress into the stud work , could you have rapt the bottom in PVC membrane . Tiles alone may not prevent water getting through . Kind regards as always
We will be tanking all the wet area, to start I’ll seal the corners with silicone, then paint the corners with the tanking membrane and then install the corner flashings, going over all the joints etc. creating a water tight base before we start tiling
Great stuff , sorry for jumping the gun 😂. But I remember a plumber saying to me , get wet rooms water tight was a major problem . And having been brought in to jobs where the tanking had been incorrectly installed , was quite common . But obviously your undertaking the task yourself , so this will not be the case . Kind regards as always from an old curmudgeon . 👍😀
Tanking is the way to go
Pointless when there is a cavity to stop damp coming across
That why I originally didn’t wrap them but building control asked 😑 and sadly what they say, goes
Thats a lot of work - congrats.
Thank you 😊
Ive got a sweeper upper like you have! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
And a holder upper! 😂😂
Not bad at it either
@@Selfbuild_TheJenkins 🤣🤣🤣🤣Same here..
Derelict cottage needs new roof , removed most of fauls ceilings next is original , so just pulled a corner off the ceiling and noticed , 2x4 rafters at 1 mtr centrs 🙄 not seen ridge yet , or head plate , i know facia are rotten , so taking out chimney which is massive once roof is off , whats your thoughts on reclaimed standard black tile slate or shingle sheets on osb , will still use new rafters 6x2 at 400 centrs , will put new ceiling joists in with new rafters once headplate replaced.original roof was corrugated no boarding just straight on felt 🙄
Sorry Darren, I’m only a carpenter, my first time roofing on my own house so I wouldn’t be able to give you sound advice as I don’t have any experience in this field. I hope you can get some help/answers from some with more experience
Glad that I sold you guys a great project. ❤
Do you work for an estate agents?
Fair play to you both !
Thank you, hope you’re enjoying ☺️
Think that bit of *Lead* was far to small i would have tested with tap water personally mate just for a better idea just me though
Thanks for commenting, luckily there’s all rubber underneath but I wanted to make a designated channel so if there’s crazy wind it doesn’t blow up past the rubber
Great video guys tell the miss to make you more tea lol
She makes me plenty of good coffees 😂 and food and is great at cleaning up and cooking aswell 😂 very lucky to have her
Hi both Doesn’t seem that long ago since you were starting the office project , but to you it probably seems a lifetime ago . Surprised that the guttering went like it did , normally it’s pretty indestructible . Perhaps it might be a good time to consider a shed, to house some of the materials you intend to keep , especially things like paint that don’t respond well to frost . But it’s all very easy for me to say , and definitely know how quickly things can pile up on you . Kind regards as always
You’re right, it feels like we built it decades ago! As for materials, we store all the materials that matter inside and we are kicking all we have left outside of treated timber or ready for the bonfire 😅 a lot of the paint is just old stuff we haven’t thrown out yet, Natasha loves me, I’m quite the hoarder 🙈
