Thank you Matt for giving our business the opportunity to serve you! We hope you are loving your new garage doors. Also congratulations on the house. It's looking awesome!
Those are beautiful doors!!!
Looks like yall did a good job!
Great job!
Always heard it's an open/shut type of business....better than an elevator installer, that's an up and down business..hahahahah
Glad to see you included windows in the top panel of the garage doors. You'll be amazed how they brighten up the garage. :)
Crazy to see! Once it’s finished before furniture you should do a comparison walking and showing exactly what episode one showed, side by side it’d be AWESOME😃💪🏼
Still waiting more videos on the 1,000 G indoor pond 😎
Hi Paul love the videos
Hey Matt and Paul, what about a colab when the house is finish?!?!
#btc #avax
This is a great idea...but you are spelling your last name wrong
I remember I started watching the "abandoned mansion" videos right from the start.. From that state of that place I thought for sure you wouldn't get to this point. But look at you now. Congrats man! You and the wife are incredibly lucky, but your kids will one day look back and hopefully grasp the truly beautiful thing you did here for them. They'll never forget this "not so abandoned mansion".
It is hard to believe that its been two years since he started this. Time flew by
No luck, just hard work
Mit: I also remember from the beginning and yes, it was hard to picture all of this! But some people see visions and thank God for these people. Matt, has the imagination but the means of how to get all of that done. Some people all they saw was a badly broken down house, that nobody wanted. Us rebuilders thank you for your effort. You are showing the world thru hard work and the funds to go through with this, not to give up. p.s. I want to see more videos, you rock!
Just think about when it time for the kids to move out, um nty i love my mansion im with mom an dad till the end
For the under stairs bathroom: Get some adjustable bumpers that go on the hinge pins and bump against door trim to limit swing open. The place is lookin great’
They break all the time.
Nah man get one of those door stoppers that flings around like my dingaling after a shower

@@Ohio_Isnt_Real 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@HGVdiscoDave I know youve helicoptered that thang around 😉😏
It’s nice to actually see a UA-camrs house that is actually done really nicely and not to just way to big to show off. Can really tell it has a sense of design about it and definitely very homely
They didn’t necessarily want a giant house cause of there kids. Idk if it’s true or not but that’s what I’m thinking
What exactly would be your definition of a big house?!?!? My house would fit in the garage area.... lol
They also did as series on actually building the house instead of showing off the finished product which may be why u feel that way
@@KenG.... Is it a house? or an apartment?
@@graysondoesgaming1330 I don't know about them, but _my_ house, an actual house (although connected), would possibly fit in that garage addition.
Wow - just Wow! Hard to imagine how hopeless it looked when you bought the "abandoned mansion". And now to see the vision you both had coming to fruition is amazing! God bless you all in your new home!
I hope who ever started this build over 20 yrs. ago is watching this great restoration/transformation. They will be sorry they ever abandoned it. Beautiful.
They might not of had a choice. I hope they are happy someone is getting to finish it.
The previous owner may not have had millions and sponsor donations.
Or hopefully they appreciate it has been saved and feel blessed they could see the journey.
I can't wait to see what he does with the mosaic.
Matt is such a champ for saving it.
How sure he disappointed this isn’t that house not even close to it.
@@debbralehrman5957
Might not HAVE had not of had this is basic English grammar.
I never realized how much time I’d invest in watching this series of episodes when I watched that first “abandoned mansion” episode over two years ago.
I stop pretty much watching it. It a completely different house
Annie is way smart. She's got the coolest room. Way to go Annie.😃 Matt Mere having a house like that with a pool your kids may never leave. They will have it all so good.
It’s so good to see the mansion final done I’ve been here since part one
same
I know rite its going to be an awesome next few years
Same
No it's a big not abandoned house on a hill
Me to
I'll bet the pool installers were thrilled to put in this pool. Everything above ground, no digging...just install it all at ground level, then bury it all at the end.
That's true, but them are going to put something to cover the pipes and make it easy to check for leaks. Also some coating to prevent from freezing.
Seeing the pipes on bare ground is triggering me lol, put some sand under them!
@@pai1238 I somehow think that ground freezing in texas isn't that big treath... Yea they got some snow realy this year there but not long enough freezing temps for ground to freeze.
@@JamesH98203 Triggered plus here!
@@Brian-jv8iy Tell me about low temperatures when I'm used on winters having -20 degree Celcius... Tho sand might act bit differently as insulator when you compare it to normal soil.
I didn’t realize how long this project has been going on. I remember when you bought the house 🤣. Amazing to see how far it’s come. It’s so beautiful
It's so crazy seeing how much has changed since the 1st video. That is how I found your channel and I'm glad I did!
That driveway would be the perfect place to throw an Xbox 360 through the back window of a car
Hey swift!
Coming from someone that is borderline homeless right now, I enjoy seeing you and your family's success and growth. I say that because you have always been so humble Matt. I have no doubt in my mind you are just as nice of a guy in person. I wish you the best man.
Don’t give up.
Yes never give up.
@MINA---♋️ yall are some losers
I’ve loved this series up until the hard stop. Can’t wait to see this house finished, especially the landscaping.
The Flintstones called, they want their bathtub back.
Most underrated comment! 👍🤣
Yaba Baba Do now!
It's made of concrete. I was thinking that they could have bought an actual carved solid stone bath tub. However, the price is stratospheric.
When the pool is done this place is gonna be in-freaking-sane. Loving the progress Matt. Hopefully there isn’t too big of a hole in my heart when this series is over!
You and I both know its gonna leave something to be yearned for haha. I legit didnt even realize this series has been going on for 2 years. Really only thought it was MAYBE a year. time needs to SLOW down.
lol, you used in-freakin-sane. . in my comment i used A-freakin-mazing. . . hahhaha
@@EthyEth time needs to slow way way down.
My living room is 24×20. Recently I bought furniture to put in it. Nothing fancy and just minimal and $11,000 later i have blinds on my windows, a place to set and put up my feet and watch tv. Man, i cant imagine furnishing a place the size of yours.
Matt you need to do a full time-lapse of the abandoned mansion rebuild from beginning to end no matter how long the vid would be. I know everyone who watches your channel would love to see that!
You have Carrier Ac in the house. That one unit that was cycling on and off is probably the blower motor module malfunctioning. They are notorious for having those issues. It sounds like it's stuck in the start function. Love all the other renovations!
Hate to hear yall are having issues with your infinity system already. They really are neat and efficient units with all sorts of settings to play with within the infinity stat and on the app. You made a good choice going with the carriers, we put alot of these in and I never hear anything but complements on the infinity equipment. Once your install guys get you straightened out I think you'll be impressed with everything. Big congrats on the house!
With a house like that matt says he hopes the kids wont be living with them at 25. I would NEVER leave that house xD
Haha same
imagine going back to a normal house after 😭
Yeah! I'm not leaving!
Why would you leave a house with it's own workshop and shooting range.
@@tmurdoch2 And the view.
Matt, after the "great freeze" last February here north of Dallas, when we had no electricity for 6 days, we lost two bedrooms and a hallway, including 2 ft of drywall (vertically from the floor) plus the closets in the bedrooms. That was the first time I have ever had a pipe freeze and burst in my entire 62 years on this planet. My grown son happened to be visiting with his wife immediately after and helped me with the demolition. I did all of the rebuilding repairs myself, including the drywall, baseboards, and laminate flooring (after the broken pipe, my wife of 40 years said "LAMINATE!" It turned out nicely, so I can't complain.

Very nice. Most of us could only dream of a place like that. You all are so blessed to be able to make this work and call it home. Can’t wait to see what else you guys do at the Ranch.
So excited to see how Mere decorates the house. Glad to see it almost done, very excited and happy for you guys!
Enough of the house, show use the bunker with all the pew pews.
@@joepangean6770 that will be cool too!
Amazing guys! Can't wait to see the final move in.
What a cool place. Your kids are very lucky to grow up in a house like that.
Mere totally looks at peace just chilling in the bath tub. The house looks great can't wait to see move in
so does little mere if you know what I mean ;-)
hey Just a tip on pool equipment from someone whos been doing it 10 years, no matter what they say get a cartridge or DE fitler DO NOT use a sand filter they a re cheaper trashier an will always let sand an small particles back into the pool. A cartridge is the simplest an in my opinion makes the pool 10x cleaner.
Buen dato no solo para ellos sino para el resto del mundo!
if sand gets in the pool, you're doing the backflush wrong
I have a color of white for you that my construction company uses all the time and every client loves it! This place is gorgeous.
I have been here since the first episode and it is so amazing to see how this house is becoming a beautiful home for you and your family! Can’t wait for the next update!!
Me too, it's been an amazing ride so far 👍👍
Man... I remember when I first started watching your videos about 8 years ago. I can't imagine how you and Mere feel about the progress and achievements you've made since then. You guys are truly living the American dream and I'm happy for you guys. Watching your journey over the years has been an incredible experience. You've always put forth your utmost effort to keep your fans entertained and provide a wholesome experience in a way that we could relate with. Wish nothing but the best for you brother and thanks for all the great content over the years. Proud of the achievements you've accomplished.
My house is no mansion, but I also bought an abandoned home on foreclosure and have been renovating it, nearly finished. I know how exciting it is to reach milestones like working electric and plumbing.
Lookin forward to seeing you an your families new adventure in life! Good for you! You've worked hard and made your dreams come true.
I just rewatched the very first video of the abandoned mansion and Matt remember, you said this, "It's just one of those pipe dream homes that Mere and I think would be so cool to tackle. It's definitely out of our league." So glad you and Mere have proven yourself wrong!
Interesting choice to have stained wood over the stove for the trim on the vent hood. There is a reason that most are stainless steel - they can be cleaned when the grease accumulates. Like everyone else here, I want to see it when it is done.
I’d imagine it would be some sort of polyurethane/resin but yeah thought that was odd
I like how Matt hasn’t said a thing about but the bunker under the garage
He did a few videos on it. Its an empty bunker still so there's no need to show it again
@@BeardedBaldGuy87 hmm there might already be a few pee pews down there
@@Gh3ttoboy I would doubt it since there is still work being done on the inside of the garage.
@@Gh3ttoboy I highly doubt that while there’s still contractors working on site
Your home is what most people dream of, going to be awsome, love Karen from Australia 🇦🇺
Ha
Okie doke. Love you, Karen from Australia 🇦🇺.
you dream of that shit?
The reason it looks blue/green is the the reflection of the windows. I am sure your windows have a tint to it and thats the reflection your getting through the home
I think it’s an odd choice to do white walls with white trim. A light shade of gray would really make this place pop and help eliminate that green hue
All of the gold plumbing and light fixtures go so nicely with all Matts Gold Plated Pews.
Aight. I need to come get a tour 😯
For the powder room they make stoppers that go on the top hinge of the door so it’ll hit the back of the door before it hits the ceiling angle. Our new build has them…
Oh the second-hand happiness and feeling of accomplishment that I get from these rare uploads about the mansion
After Matt mentioned that he hasn’t gone boom boom in his new house yet, made me think I’d have a toilet in a secluded spot on his deck off the master bedroom and take my morning dukes in the open air, admiring and thinking “Look at that view and sunrise!” 😂
Pretty sure mere said none that one
@@maxchristensen4742 well that’s just something you do anyway. Better to ask forgiveness than permission.
Plus… there’s only one rule in the Demolita, Ya don’t tell Mere!! 😂
@@Maddog165 true
Actually he has lol check out some of the old videos
Graham stephan has to review this house when it's completely done would love to see you talk with him over the finances of it as well
Matt we're all really excited for your new home!! Congratulations
Congratulations on building such a beautiful house! As a city girl I’m jealous of that view! I hope you all love it and make the best memories there!
Yo también espero lo mismo, que toda la familia y nosotros que los miramos por acá la disfrutemos con salud!!
The Not-so-finished-but-almost-there-soon-but-not-yet house is looking terrific! The garage is to die for, Mere's "egg" tub looks . . cozy?? But all that pipe for the pool drives me nuts!! So many bends and sooooo far away. I'd make a bath/grill/pool house out next to it and run a large main to it to divide there instead of all that pvc. Just one breaks, or gets a big leak and it'll be noooo fun.
I wonder "is that bath tab is bullet proof?" 😂🤣
Seguramente si sea, o por lo menos a small calibers
@@pai1238 hmm concrete is pretty brittle without rebar in it it might stop up to 9mm or 45 acp untill the cracks start falling apart
This is why l came here so many years ago. 🙂
If he tests that, we might get a video from Mere of "Is Matt bullet proof?"
@@MisterKisk 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
With all of Matt's toys, Meridith needs a shopping spree at Decorators Warehouseun Arlington, TX. For the new house.
I am sure she has already ordered all the furniture or at least knows exactly what she wants.
It's probably all sitting on a giant boat waiting for get off loaded
I'm pretty sure she's already done all of that.
All the stuff is probably ready and waiting for the green light to be moved in.
But, yes.... She deserves the best after putting up with everything Matt puts her through. 🤣🤣
@@maxchristensen4742 I’ve been waiting on chairs to come in since April. I hope she didn’t have to order much
@@melissagrimes4871 my sister and her husband ordered a couch a couple months ago and the delivery date keeps getting pushed back
That bath-room would be amazing packed full of greenery 🌱🌿
Bathroom is one word, sweetie. 😜😜😜
Any plan to contact the orig owner and show them what the house has turned into?
I think that will be an awesome video!
Not to be too dark, but I imagine there's a chance that the prior owner is not with us any more; that's why it never got completed?
Thank you so much for sharing this experience! I bought a house (1966 mid century modern home) that needed a lot of work about a little bit over a year ago. Your videos have made me feel more confident that I made the right choice.
What a provider. Building/ construction of a gorgeous home, model family dynamics, loving partnership, and not just a great view, but some quiet moments of calm during scenic timelapse.
I remember when you first bought the empty shell of a mansion. I thought that it wouldn't get finished this quickly. You and Mere are moving into a really beautiful home. I would love to see the house after you are all moved in.
The house looks awesome! I’ve watched since the beggining and it’s crazy to see how perfect everything is! Pleeease show us the next step of decoration!! So happy for you guys! Congratulations for the house! Love from Brasil 🇧🇷 p.s.: with such a big house and so many appliances, you guys should consider solar powering, this will really help with the costs.. from personal experience, it’s worth for the investiment..
Matt, I hope you see this one:)
So I just got off a 2 year mission and right before I left, the mansion was just barely starting. Now, almost exactly 2 years later it's basically done and I got back last week! That's awesome.
I am so glad to see someone fixing up a mansion rather then building a brand new one. Can not wait for the next update
Yay!!! Please tell me you’re going to have a party!! You deserve it!!! Thank you for sharing your amazing story. A lot of your youtube fam feels like we’ve lived this right along with you! Many blessings to your new big home on the hill! Love ya!!
Fiesta y pico tendrán que hacer. Pero les quedan como 4 meses de trabajo para terminar todo!!
I bumped into the Abandoned mansion reno video and i was hooked, I've subscribed and I'm watching more of your videos. Watching all the way from Zimbabwe 🇿🇼 😍
3 things: Your new home is coming along great, It may have been a little mind slip, but you didn't show the War room (bunker) and that blueish hue you keep talking about could very well be the UV protection in the windows. All in All this is turning out to be the best build series of all.
Man just look at that beautiful view. The not so small house on the hill is looking awesome brother.
For the 1/2 bath under the stairs. Get a hinge mounted door stop. Way cleaner than putting on in the ceiling it letting the door hit the toilet.
this project has been so amazing to follow. Thank you Carriker's for sharing. and I am so genuinely excited for you to get into your new home. All the hard work and sacrifice is paying off for you and your family. Congratulations Matt & Mere!!
Congrats Mat. You’ve worked hard and earned this.
It’s been amazing watching your videos as a kid when you first stared and seeing how far they’ve taken you and your family. Keep going strong, very motivating! Wish y’all the best.
I've been watching this back in 2021 when I got covid and kinda forgot about it when I got back to work and college. Looking back now, it's really a dream house. The only thing I can renovate so far is my brother's bedroom when he moves out.
Are you installing any lightning prevention? A large metal roof on a hill seems like a big target
There are usually metal spikes that stick up above roof line that are grounded with heavy wire
Lightning rods are common in the Midwest, I would expect Texas is similar.
I assume they will have a couple of those lightning rods arround the roof
@@johno1831 Use a lightning rod been used for hundreds of years lol.
Looks sooooo good Matt! As part of the Demolita, I’m grateful to have been along for the journey!
Agreed 👍👍
12:50 Just so you know, you shouldn't disable the window from opening. It's required by code that there be two points of egress in every bedroom, this usually means a door and a window (which means the window has to open). It's really important that whoever is sleeping in that bedroom is able to escape via the window if there is a fire.
“That guy” is going to have to create a new intro for you showing the new place and trucks.
I’m so invested in this series. I’ve been watching since day 1 and I can’t wait to see it all finished!
Can't believe how much this house has changed! So excited to see you move in!
Congrats! Definitely has come a long way, it’s awesome to be able to see the progress, any updates on the underground bunker?
I wish I could like this video 1000 times. I'm so happy for you all: all your hard work and success in those endeavors, it's heart warming to see.
That powder room/half bath under the stairs…I would put a pocket door for that one so it doesn’t bang against the ceiling/stairs part. Or yeah a stopper would work also but having a pocket door would make the half bath seem a bit bigger and less tight.
It’s hard to imagine how much business they brought in just from renovating that house!
I've been following you for some time. Thank you for all the content you've supplied for our entertainment and congratulations on your successes. I know you've worked hard to achieve it, and I for one, appreciate your efforts and celebrate your journey. Congratulations on the new place, don't forget to keep us little folks updated going forward. Glad to see the American Dream at work. Kudos to you and the family.
Congrats brother you deserve it, I miss my house. Me and my wife lost our home when covid hit. Got cut backs at work and lost our dream home. But it life. Just gotta keep trying because my daughter and wife deserve it..was the hardest thing ever losing everything.
This looks soo awesome. Can't wait till it's fully done.
You worked really hard in the last couple of years,well deserved!
Love the build series and am happy to see you finished. Can’t wait to see what you renovate next, maybe a beach house?
Honestly, I would never miss a video BUT man I think I have whiplash on this one!!! BEAUTIFUL HOME!!!
OMG THE HOUSE LOOKS AMAZING!!!! don’t worry about updating so often :) just when it feels right is good! Thanks for sharing!
it’s crazy that i’ve been here before this house was an idea. so good to see it basically finished
On that tiny bathroom door that hit the slanted ceiling, just get a hinge mounted door stop. Love the house. Totally Awesome!
Can’t wait until the first time Matt hears this from Mere: “Honey, I need you to Swiffer and do the dusting today.” Lol.
Part of the ongoing monthly fees for a house like that is the payments to the professional maid service company.
@@jmchez not necessarily. They do have three kids so 5 people in total would make short work of the majority of the cleaning
@@havokvladimirovichstalinov Just teaching the kids to clean their own bathrooms and bedrooms will go a long way.
and Matt will pull out a leaf blower and say "lets do this" lol
Matt: How much dust does it take to stop a 50 BMG!
You guys have seriously done such an amazing job with the mansion. I've been watching every step of the way since you first showed us the house when it was all busted up and horrible.
Hopefully one day if I ever get over to the U.S (I'm from Australia), I can come visit. I know, I m dreaming haha.
I seriously can't wait to see you guys move in. It kinda feels like we in the demolitia are moving in with you.
Can't wait to see the fully finished product.
I would be interested to see the price comparison between renovating this one, building a new one, and buying one with minimum work.
Probably doing it the way they did is more expensive, but I think having every detail exactly the way you want, is really priceless.
Can't wait to see the finished product on the inside and out. It has made a huge transformation since you fist started, thankfully you started when you did or it would have taken forever to build with the supply issues now.
I love the garage doors it compliments the house sooo much this is basically just a massive farm house and I love it 😍
I think I watched the first two or three videos you did on this place. And seeing it now, from what I remember from the previous videos. All I can say is WOW.
Man me and Jeana really want to see this place in person.
It would be so awesome.
Then do it
…Jeana and I. You heathen.
lol dont care
So do me Rachel Brooke and Katie!
Hey Matt I’m an architect student and I’ve loved every part of this series! I also work at firm that specializes in vet clinics if you ever need some work done at the clinic.
Me parece que después de publicsr eso acá mas de uno va a llamarte por trabajo. Saludos desde Uruguay!!
Broooo I still remember the day they bought this it was my favorite serious to watch on youtube
I can't believe after all this time and thought put into this home that you had quarterround installed with that fantastically tall baseboard. Flooring should have been installed then the baseboard. Makes for a much cleaner look.
I build houses and I try to install the flooring first and not use shoe molding (not quarter round) but that's not always possible and most people do use shoe molding.
You should look into fruit trees and berry bushes. Maybe some nuts. There are even trees that are grafted with different varieties. With all that space, adding food trees and a food/herb garden would be smart.
Y’all did an amazing job! Everything looks so good.
It’s really cool watching the whole family grow up , I’ve been watching since the beginning and I’m really happy for y’all. God bless y’all and thank you for the hard work entertaining the whole world 👍🏻👍🏻
Appliances are NOT boring!! We want to see the house become fully furnished and with appliances!
Mere is so tiny next to Matt. Yet somehow we all know who runs the show! I would like to see Meredith's reaction from when Matt started UA-cam to now. Doubt she ever imagined it would turn into this.
I've been here since a bit after the beginning of demo ranch years back, Its so beautiful seeing ya'll build up and up and up.
One day you're just recording yourself messing around.
The next you're professional and collaborating with well known people and just gah. thats so cool to me.
I envy your level of dedication and continued perseverance towards your goals. I wish I could do the same.
