As a Builder with 42 years behind me, I was pleased that you guys were wearing "reasonable" quality face masks. Especially as I now have Lung Fibrosis from all the dust from the many many renovations I completed in my Career. Good job lads.
Damn! So sorry! We didn't "know better" 40 years ago. I remember helping a friend tear down a wall and being sick as a dog the next day from the crap we enhaled. 😢
In a world full on anger and conflict, it's like therapy to see nice, regular folk working hard, and with good humor, to bring new life to something that has fallen into dereliction. Great work, gentlemen, and thank you for sharing the process with us!
As a french I support this kind of project. No matter how you paid it, you give value to this house and this village with this work. Instead of letting this house decay, it will now be used. I bought a similar building and paid about 200€/sqm, now 3 people are living in my 3 appartements.
@@shinyshinythingsmay i ask why is that a problem? Or why would it be preferable for a native to renovate a home? Sorry if its reads passive agressive, i truly mean this as an actual question.
@@capuchinosofia4771 maybe it is tackling the notion that people come from the outside and buy up property, making it more expensive for locals, which is especially the case for all the touristy areas. But what I think is much more relevant to this kind of renovation video not being done by locals is, that no local bothers to record themselves renovating an old building. For the "foreigners" or generally often wealthier millenials from larger cities, moving to the country side to rebuild an old house is something more ideological, going along with modern trends of degrowth, slow-living, sustainable living or the popular van-life. This is about people starting a new chapter then, not about ones inheriting an old building and continuing a planned journey.
@@capuchinosofia4771Money, they drive prices up, also called gentryfication. Thats just the way it is, its not inherently bad since its better than let the house rot but that also drives the rent and property prices up for everything in the city
Many people despise manual work. They should see this: pure genius at work. I’m a teacher in France and always tell the kids that intelligence comes in so many different ways.
Exactly. Intelligence isn't a one way street but society seems to think so and letting some children believe they can't accomplish anything if they don't fit the standard. Glad to see you changing the narrative as a teacher ❤
My family bought an old house every year to renovate and this is pretty much what we did. Dad bought an old house, we tore it down usually to the frame, replaced beams, floors, staircases, wall studs and walls, totally updated kitchens and bathrooms. Sometimes we even bought apartment hotels, apartment houses, you name it!!!!
Many 'outsiders' have bought abandoned houses here in Normandy, France. They’re restoring them to their former glory, often using traditional methods aswell. It's amazing to see others interested in our building culture and working to preserve it, especially when locals sometimes struggle to do so. So, thank you, and welcome to France.
This inspires me to buy an older home somewhere in Europe and renovate it as a second home for myself and family to visit each year. The rural villages can benefit from this new economic activity. I can't wait to see the project's completion!
You are absolutely crazy. This kind of old stairway are EVERYWHERE in France, so they have absolutely no value. Even if you give it for free no one would pick it.
@@Wayne72LEVRAI It' you who are crazy, the stair are more than 15000, in France it's normaly houses whith only one floor, the stair are "rare" and in my country more a house or furniture is old more the price is high (if the product is in good condition of course). For comparison, the stair that I am in the process of building cost more than 10000 and it's "modern" (and therefore less expensive because more common)
Місяць тому+11
It would cost 15000 or more to have it made to measure in France. I live in France and know an escalier artisan and this is about right!
So, I'm an architect and I'm employed at a building enterprise in Italy, so I guess I think I can freely express my thoughts😄 First of all I love your job, because no modern building can be as charming as an old house, and I would like very much to have the chance to start a little adventure as you did. This said, your demolition management scared me up! You really shouldn't rely on the fact that everything's going to be fine: I didn't see any prop to support the wooden ceiling while cutting it, and also, all the rubble you let falling on the weak old floor could have broken through, let's ignore weakening the whole old structure by bumping on it. Also, no one seemed to be tied up with a safety line, working up there. By the way, I'm not criticising at all, as I said I'm happy with your job and your enthusism, you are going to enjoy your house very much! Keep going!
I would have started at the top and worked down. Removing a these walls and floors first seems a bad idea to me as there is hardy space to stand on floor to do the renovating. Especially as a amateur you don‘t know exactly which beams/timber and walls are essencial for the stabilisation of the house.
@@JackSmith-t2p Actually, in small villages in France, there are plenty of cheap houses like this one. I know a guy who bought 3 House for €60k but with all the renovations to make of course
TALK ABOUT A GUT JOB, OH MY GOODNESS. Studs taking it down to the studs! So sorry the wood was so badly damaged, what a load of work for you 3. But when it'll be done, what a grand lady she will be! Well done gents!
Yes. I’m trying very hard myself to understand. Obviously must have worked because the house is still standing. I believe it’s a 17th century built home
It's wood floors covered with packed dirt and tiles on top of the dirt. I believe it was for sound dampening and insulation. There was much less likely to be a fire as long as the chimneys were cleaned or lightning didn't strike. Actually, practically impossible for a fire to start if a fire spilled onto the tiles.
The original builders of that home would be so impressed and grateful that you are renovating their work, a task into which they invested lifetime. I LOVE the stairway!! Craftsmanship of another century!!
My first house i brought cost 17k, in the usa. We had to completely gut the whole house, and start from scratch. Great adventurres await you! Keep up the good work.
I am happy you're back Ryan. Congratulations on your wedding and wishing you much happiness. It's nice to see the work on your house commencing. You are blessed with many great friends.
Amazing work so far! I’d recommend wearing an actual respirator though while working. Those paper masks are better than nothing but not the best protect you can get. Also some eye wear. For your hammer drill, there are wider bits would allow for you to take a bigger section of the plaster off
You're living a rich full life, and I can't wait to see the rest of the renovations to this gem of a house. You're all a great bunch of guys with talent and a great attitude towards life. I find it very inspiring.
What a nice walk down memory lane today !!! Beautiful music in the background too ❤ Look at “ our “ Ryan -- got himself a house AND a wife !!! Wishing you all the happiness and many years to share in your home together ❤❤😘. Can’t wait to see the next installments of the renovation 🎉🎉🎉🎉
'Cheapest house in France' is a bold and highly relative claim, but it's certainly a beautiful property. Loads of work (no surprise at that price). I'll be glued to this channel - thank you so much for sharing your journey. It must be uber difficult to do all that work and create such engaging video footage at the same time. Top notch chaps.
I bet it's going to be so beautiful when you're all finished. What a great and noble thing to take an old building and give it new life. Bless you both.
I was a stay at Home mom with no money in my IRA or any savings of my own, which was scary at 53 years of age. Three years ago I got a part time job and save everything I make. After 3 years, I am 56 yo and have put $9,000 in an IRA and $40,000 in my portfolio with CFA, Evelyn Infurna. Since the goal of getting a job was to invest for retirement and NOT up my lifestyle, I was able to scale this quickly to $150,000. If I can do this in a year, anyone can.
I know this lady you just mentioned. Evelyn Infurna Services is a portfolio manager and investment advisor. She gained recognition as a former employee at Goldman Sachs; a renowned investor she is. Evelyn Infurna has demonstrated expertise in investment strategies n has been involved in managing portfolios and providing guidance to clients.
I went from no money to lnvest with to busting my A** off on Uber eats for four months to raise about $20k to start trading with Evelyn Infurna. I am at $128k right now and LOVING that you have to bring this up here
Evelyn Infurna Services has really set the standard for others to follow, we love her here in Canada 🇨🇦 as she has been really helpful and changed lots of life's
She hooked me up with a late-stage fund that got me in on private shares of some hot companies before they hit the market or blew up. Those investments totally paid off when the companies went public and their stocks shot up. Now, I’m stoked because I’m heading into retirement with almost a million bucks in my portfolio.
So much has changed already, I do like the changes so far. I only hope that this 15 grand house that you’re renovating in rural France isn’t going to cost a fortune in the long run. My fingers are crossed for the stars to align and things get easier from now on. Great getting all these wonderful videos lately, forge on intrepid renovator!
Watching this recap is affecting my health. With the dust I’m coughing in sympathy and my eyes are itching as if I’ve gotten tuff in them. Keep up the good work while I suffer.
Ryan you will have to reinstate the walls on the stairs as they make a fire wall for the only way out in emergency,lots of rot but still surprisingly strong the ancient timbers,wall insulation will be needed to make the damp home warm to modern standards so removing all the wall plaster will maximise the room sizes ,removing the chimney stack will be a big plus to room size on all floors a modern stove and flue could heat the whole house easily just use an original fire surround as a design feature.if you could engineer a flat roof over the kitchen ,wc it would give a terrace and outside space a plus to the home value .
Who ever did the editing on this episode deserves an Editing OsCaR, the pace, the banter, speeding up for effect, and then occasionally throwing in “the home i am renovating in rural France”.

You must be joking, this was the most obnoxious editing job I have seen in a long time on UA-cam. How many of us searched for the speed controls to try to fix the ridiculous sped up dialogue? He needs to fire his editor. Or hire one.
So happy that you're back! Missed you and your videos so much! Really enjoy your humor and your positivity. Congratulations on your marriage! 🎉 Wish you both a lifetime of happiness❤
Hi Ryan first of all let me congratulate you on your marriage,I hope you will always be happy, your a lovely human being and deserve only good things in life, I’m a little late with my congratulations as I’m recovering from covid, I’m loving this compilation of the renovation, I love your friends and subscribe to them all, Billy and Nick Moon are the best of men, your lucky to have them and there lucky to have you, one day your house will be magnificent, I can’t wait to see the end product, I’m excited for you and the journey your on! Good luck and much love xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx😘❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
This was a super enjoyable video Ryan. You are very good making very creative videos. This is a good one to show your kids in 10 years!!! I love all of the work you’ve done so far. I remember when you and Nick installed all of the new joists, it made me happy then and even happier now. Watching Billy and Yanis helping you get the flooring down, yay! I know you have to save to buy more supplies but you should be very proud of what you’ve already done. Nice having you back and again and a huge Congratulations on your marriage!! ❤
So happy you are back. Congratulate on finding the love of your life. I would love to see her but truely understand you not showing her. Have a long happy life together. 😊😊
Found your vlogs today, Ryan. I knew you were around somewhere, as I follow Billy and company on the Pethericks. I often wonder how this group got together in the first place, and where they all learned their various building skills. Billy and Michael obviously follow in Dad Mick's footsteps, then there is Nick Moon with his horses and ability to rebuild old pipe organs, Simon with every skill you can think of, teaching Yanis new tricks. Alex with his camera work, and Rick with his muscles and tattoos. I do enjoy all the hard work and the friendships. Thank you Ryan for adding another layer to this imaginative group.
I went to an all girls Catholic boarding school. We rented a helium machine(?) to blow up balloons for a dance. I was the class president, expected to comport myself with a certain amount of dignity 😂. Someone must have known what helium would do to your voice because I had no idea. Next thing you know, 20 girls are laughing hysterically and talking like cartoons when in walks our principal. There were no specific rules in our school; we were supposed to conduct ourselves like ladies. Helium filled girls were definitely not ladies, but we were laughing so hard it was infectious, and Sister Patricia Ann sported a small smile. A lot of the girls were afraid of her, but I adored her and convinced her to take just a small sip of helium. The result was hilarious and we all collapsed in convulsive laughter again. PA, as she was known, just shook her head and started walking to the door, but just as she reached for the handle to open it, we all heard a high pitched cartoon heh-heh-heh, then out she went. Not all nuns were mean.🤗
That was way more fun watching than I expected! Very few would have the guts to take this project on, but this guy seems perfect for it. He loves every minute of it and good on him!
I had forgotten how much you had achieved, it was great to see it all together like that. Looking forward to seeing what's next! Hugs from Down under 🤗👍
Wow, a dirt floor on the 2nd floor amazing, I've not seen that before what a job. Loved the video mates are great to have aren't they. You are all doing a great job. Thank you Ryan for taking us along. God bless.
So happy to have you back Ryan all the best and congratulations to you and your bride wishing you every happiness now and forever, god bless you both you biggest fan From Canada.🎉

Damn! So sorry! We didn't "know better" 40 years ago.
I remember helping a friend tear down a wall and being sick as a dog the next day from the crap we enhaled. 😢
Yeah, but with that crap, I think I'm reaching for a proper 3M respo and cans with pre-filters. Too easy to get leaks with the 'paper' disposables.
even with simple jobs as sweeping etc wear a mask. you never know what you end up finding after you already tore out a bunch of things.
Even with respirators, I don't think it is safe. Some of the dust must be getting through.
In a world full on anger and conflict, it's like therapy to see nice, regular folk working hard, and with good humor, to bring new life to something that has fallen into dereliction. Great work, gentlemen, and thank you for sharing the process with us!

Did you ever have friends over for a sleepover? Or was it all construction all the time?

@@lysmykyta1199 It's cost-effective when you do the labor yourself.
So you bought yourself a $15k demolition adventure! I have a lot of skills but would've been overwhelmed by that project. Good on you!

really? I found it to be quite jarring at times, like when sentences just got cut off. It really threw me off the storyline.
You must be joking, this was the most obnoxious editing job I have seen in a long time on UA-cam. How many of us searched for the speed controls to try to fix the ridiculous sped up dialogue? He needs to fire his editor. Or hire one.
its either a horrible editor or he used ai to edit his video
@@CC-gu3zeliterally just did the same thing. The last quarter of this video has to be a mistake.
You guys are very brave. This video is just perfect. I wish you the best.
Love seeing your bubbley face in Rural France 🎉🎉🎉🎉 Much love from the States 🌴🌴
Prayers for those in the areas of the Southern US affected by the hurricane 🙏🏻 🙏🏻🙏🏻

This was a super enjoyable video Ryan. You are very good making very creative videos. This is a good one to show your kids in 10 years!!! I love all of the work you’ve done so far. I remember when you and Nick installed all of the new joists, it made me happy then and even happier now. Watching Billy and Yanis helping you get the flooring down, yay!

Hello Life of Ryan, we did say you have the best work clothes. Thankfully you have helpers. Wishing you All the Best!! Bob and Jim in the USA.
Welcome back, looking forward to your updates!
Ryan, you and Nick rock. Great Job 👍
All the hard work you guys have put into repairing and restoring this old house should last for a very very long time !
You are so brave to do this! I’d be terrified
Amazing to watch you peel back the years x
So happy you are back. Congratulate on finding the love of your life. I would love to see her but truely understand you not showing her. Have a long happy life together. 😊😊
Found your vlogs today, Ryan. I knew you were around somewhere, as I follow Billy and company on the Pethericks. I often wonder how this group got together in the first place, and where they all learned their various building skills. Billy and Michael obviously follow in Dad Mick's footsteps, then there is Nick Moon with his horses and ability to rebuild old pipe organs, Simon with every skill you can think of, teaching Yanis new tricks. Alex with his camera work, and Rick with his muscles and tattoos. I do enjoy all the hard work and the friendships. Thank you Ryan for adding another layer to this imaginative group.
Good video Ryan. Congratulations on getting married. Good to have you back. 👍😁💖
You have to love doing this! It must be so incredibly rewarding at the end.
What an adventure! Great teamwork, brave gentlemen :). Very exciting, thanks for sharing!
Tomettes, termites and timbers, oh my!
Are they coming to take you away? Oh my!!😮 Hurry call Ryan to safe you! Hahaha! It going to be a project now!!
Welcome back to rural Fronce Ryan👍
Ryan a wonderful montage of you, Billy, Yanis and Nick.
Love all the stones and brick under the plaster and sheetrock. Don't want this video to end. Y'all work together so nicely! Getting the job done!
Thank you much again, Bronnie, how beautiful to see your new year begin and your love for spring, nature and ive😊
Nobody said it was going to be easy. Remember that. And whatever you do, don't panic...love
Bless your hard working hearts.
Everyone sounds hilarious on fast forward 😂 Sounds like they swallowed a bunch of helium 😂
I went to an all girls Catholic boarding school. We rented a helium machine(?) to blow up balloons for a dance. I was the class president, expected to comport myself with a certain amount of dignity 😂. Someone must have known what helium would do to your voice because I had no idea. Next thing you know, 20 girls are laughing hysterically and talking like cartoons when in walks our principal. There were no specific rules in our school; we were supposed to conduct ourselves like ladies. Helium filled girls were definitely not ladies, but we were laughing so hard it was infectious, and Sister Patricia Ann sported a small smile. A lot of the girls were afraid of her, but I adored her and convinced her to take just a small sip of helium. The result was hilarious and we all collapsed in convulsive laughter again. PA, as she was known, just shook her head and started walking to the door, but just as she reached for the handle to open it, we all heard a high pitched cartoon heh-heh-heh, then out she went.
Not all nuns were mean.🤗
That was way more fun watching than I expected! Very few would have the guts to take this project on, but this guy seems perfect for it. He loves every minute of it and good on him!
I have really enjoyed watching you two work together. Nick! You're mighty good with a saw!
I had forgotten how much you had achieved, it was great to see it all together like that. Looking forward to seeing what's next! Hugs from Down under 🤗👍
Wow, a dirt floor on the 2nd floor amazing, I've not seen that before what a job. Loved the video mates are great to have aren't they. You are all doing a great job. Thank you Ryan for taking us along. God bless.
it's a sand-ish material added there intentionally for sound insulation, it's pretty common in old buildings
there are 10 story buildings in NY that have dirt floors.
Ive never seen that sort of flooring! What era was that?
So happy to have you back Ryan all the best and congratulations to you and your bride wishing you every happiness now and forever, god bless you both you biggest fan From Canada.🎉
Great job. Can't wait to see your next video. This house is going to be stronger and look amazing.
You've got some really good mates there. Cherish them.
just loving those guys,nick and billy and ryan !!!
