Contact a structural engineer. That’s what they do, design beams for loads.
for sure!
Looks like you made great progress! We did that about 2 years ago, new floors everywhere downstairs, 80% kitchen remodel (kept the cabinet boxes, but new faces, quartz, doors and new drawers everywhere) and new stairs. Well worth the effort and savings doing it myself. When deciding on the cabinets, I would suggest getting drawers in all the lower cabinets that you can. We did that and it makes them much more usable. No crawling back in the cabinet to look for things! I even put a drawer in the bottom of the sink base so you can pull it out and get to the stuff in the back.
And a big island would be great. Ours is like 48" x 105 and has plenty of space for 4 barstools and lots of prep space. I had 6 extra cabinet doors made and put them on three sides as fixed panels, with drawers and a beverage fridge on the kitchen side. So much you can do in a remodel! Lmk if you want any pics or info.
Nice! That's the exact direction I'm leaning towards as well I would love to see some ideas send them to my email :)
Couple of pro's working in the house there, the work is going fast👍
Hope so!
I’ve been waiting for a house rebuild and I’m just so happy for you man!
Thanks for making this happen
I suggest consulting with a structural engineer. If you remove the load bearing wall, you run the risk of the roof collapsing, creating more problems. Plus you have the issue of the sink and it's plumbing.
That looks better since you took the arch down so opened it up more looks really nice it looks nice when it's all finished in the living in their lot of work to be worth it in the long run

I say go with the collumns in front of the kitchen, horizontal beam would be nice, but that’s going to be pricey and the cash could go else where to a master bedroom or to trick out the garage 😅
I had to rip out a tiled floor once, using only a hammer/chisel and a crowbar. Took a lot longer but we were too cheap to buy the power tools.
Looking good so far and the front really opens it up and makes the house look more modern.
that would be a nightmare and it sure does
@@RebuilderGuy It was, a lot of cuts and swearing but we got it done.
I wish you luck with your house project.
Incorporate the kitchen island unit with the load wall bearing .
Light them up as a Feature .
Looking good so far. Right decision on waiting on the cross beam. I say build 1 out of pressure treated wood. May cost a lil bit cheaper
A load bearing beam would need to be made of steel
I would say a exposed 28’ Beam and stain it for the extra space plus the aesthetics.
Take the beam from the outside wall to the office wall from up in the Raptors
I vote for the beams... so you can open up all the space! But ask an engineer first and if it's possible, don't think twice! Good luck!
Do the beams it will look so much better than that one support being in the middle of the room . Been looking forward to this video and the rest to come . Loving the Channel keep it up
That’s what I’m leaning towards
Rebuilder Guy definitely the way forward may be a bit more work but will be worth it in the end with an open planned room with tall ceiling absolutely perfect 👌
Make a SMART home. Nest. or Ubiquiti. Regarding the load bearing studs, Why not consult a structural engineer?
Smart homes are sketchy man too many things that can happen,but they are very cool.
leave the supports there and just build some floating open shelves above the island that span between the supports.
Love these videos, a lot of people don’t know how much back breaking work it is to do this type of work, nothing compared to fixing a front end of a car. huge props and can’t wait for more 👍
So true!
Do an island with vertical beams on each side.
I'm not going to lie,I love that arch,sadly it's placement is in a terrible spot and makes it look closed in,had it been placed between two large rooms it would have been a great center piece and focal point coming into the house.
It does look much better without it though, opened the room up immensely.
Keep in mind,when working with load bearing walls/supports you need to check with local building regulations, many if not all require a report from a structural engineer before they allow you make any changes.
yup it was nice but just killed the space
@@RebuilderGuy That it did, I also did another edit above, I'm sure you are aware of it but I wanted to throw it in there.
so glad I bought a house outside of those stupid regulations lol
@@RebuilderGuy Lucky you, code enforcement and building regs are getting out of hand,I planned on building a 12'x16' barn shed, it was a kit,everything was pre-cut,I was told for it's size I didn't need a permit, when I went to pick it up I was told someone had ordered the same shed with a 4 foot extension but decided against the extension due to space issues, anyway, I was offered the 4 foot extension for next to nothing and jumped on it, a few months after I built it code enforcement gave me a fine because anything over 16 foot in length needed a permit, cost me around $350 which was a lot of money back then.
Name of the track list used in this episode please ?
How do you like your EcoDiesel? I bought my new in 2017 and have 75,000 km (46,600 miles) on it and the engine just blew with a bottom and catastrophic failure. Make sure you change the oil often. If you're going to check the forums there are a lot of guys with blown EcoDiesel engines. According to the manufacturer the oil change supposed to be done every 10,000 miles. I talked to a diesel mechanic he suggested to change it every 6,000 miles. Use the shell rotella t6 5w 40 oil.
I love it I always buy wrecks so I never get lemons lol ya I threw the dealers recommendation out the window day 1 delo 15 40 for me
You should use 5w 40 for diesel engines. These trucks had a recall early on and from on in they changed the oil requirements to 5w 40. 15w the viscosity is too high when the engine is hot. The reason is that many engines were failing. Mine is a perfect example even when using the correct oil
I always find it amusing how the houses are built out of wood in america unlike here in most of europe where its all bricks and concrete
I call them cardboard boxes
Big island with exposed wood beams
I was always amazed how the americans build houses or crap materials, thin wood and plaster board... May be a dumb question but why dont you use bricks like everywhere in europe?
No post in kitchen go all the way across it will pay off in the end and make the property more appealing to more buyers if u ever sell.
yup thats what I'm thinking
🤘
Finally you got a house saving money does really pay off!
This would be great for your family man!
it sure does!
I've seen a few people wear a belt with al their tools on it before and it always seems so heavy. Isn't this realy annoying to carry around al the time?
that's what I asked him but he likes the easy access to his tools
@@RebuilderGuy fair point, on a ladder i absolutely understand. Nice house btw
G
you are turing oute as those goonz ! 😁 *& white that i mean goonzqaud! (&i just joking !, don't mean any mean stuff !!, just joking!)
no offense taken guess everyone decided at the same time that buying cars at the auction is getting too expensive
All car rebuilders are jumping off the copart/iaai rebuild team as the prices are crazy artificially high, and doing home reno's now. Hope COPART/IAAI come back down to reality , otherwise they'll be car collectors for a very long time.

Why is it that you wont put your face on camera, you have something to hide ?
I would do 2 post settle running a beam back across were you just took a beam out so in my opinion and cost figures is two post cheaper and more better looking and a wire run for the kitchen..... so congratulations on the new home! 👍👍
Best wishes for u from Pakistan
If sticking our Rsj Ian you have the boxingdo that and make the kitchen look really big look nice big open plan kitchen big island in it and look quite smart when it's all done and what you going to do in the garage after with its all done through the garage out
Every car channel is renovating right now pretty much.
auction prices are insane
Looks like you are wrecking your house dude.
Bad ideal on the beams
Hire a engineer to make the calculation and draw prints that way you, the framing guy, and the engineer are on the same page. Don't depend on us UA-cam fans for building advice lol.
Loving your videos. Keep up the great work. One tip...when you do the music montages, try not to play it louder than rest of video. Tone the music level down some to add depth to the scene.
*Seek professional help. And also hire a structural engineer. Just kidding lol.*
Yeah this is already a great series! 👍🏽 looking forward to the build.... How’s the Veloster N driving?
Those beam loads were there probably for a reason.
For any structural changes, you might want to consult an engineer?
You are the boss of the actual "Rebuilders" 😅😅
Im in the same process as you with housing. Keep it comming!
Well done RG and look forward next episode
Yes, remove that wall. It will make the house feel so much bigger!
I-bream it bro.
Nice place 👌
I'd say ask for Matt's Engineer at abandoned mansion and see what he says about your wall.
not sure who that is but I think I have a solid game plan for it :)
Videos need to be longer man! Really diggin this project
Ya I can make them longer but typical watch time is half of the video short attention span lol I appreciate that!
There's lots of work on your house.
Yup
@@RebuilderGuy Good luck with that.
American "load bearing walls" look interesting 😅
?
@@RealGalaxyGamers in Europe, a wall like this would either be constructed of single thick beams instead of multiple small beams stapled together or from concrete or wood, that's what I meant
