Yanis is a work horse. Such a wonderful temperament, willing to tackle any job or new skill or to lend a hand to anyone needing it. He is one lucky young fella who has been nurtured by the whole Petherick family into the skilled tradie he is today. What a WIN / WIN!
@@TomTomicMic The aerial views of the surrounding area they occasionally show, gives the impression that it's semi rural. What's the name of the town/village?
Billy, I was worried about you standing on the beams with a camera. Then you turned round, and when I saw how far away from the floor you were 🫣😳😱. Lovely to see Phil ❤
Does Clive ever do any plumbing. He always seems to get roped into everything else other than. Shows what a great bloke he is. Billy has surrounded himself with a great bunch of people.
Bloke originates from the Hindi word Loke - A Man, it travelled across Asia and Europe to the Celtic Tribes (The original inhabitants of the UK) and changed to Bloke - A Man, plural Blokes!?!
I am amazed how Billys friends are always willing to help. Love the kitchen in the background, looks amazing. Yanis never says no to work, you have to like him he's always ready to learn a new skill. Till next time.
Billy (and all the Pethericks) are amazingly willing and generous with their time, skills and equipment to all their large friend circle. It works both ways.
Billy…. “Don’t walk on those beams without safety gear please!!! We need you whole 🤣“ I can hear myself shouting in my head!! Love and respect from Canada ❤️🇨🇦❤️🇨🇦❤️🇨🇦
I watched Phil’s vlog just now that was done at the convent. The idea of moving the hall way to the back of the building raises an image in my head that is quite wonderful to me. Just imagine all the light from those former bedrooms windows coming into the new hall. No longer a dim and moody long walk but a wonderful walk in the sunlight during the day and star lighted at night. It would have an inviting solarium feel to it. I vote YES to moving the hall way.
Those apartments would be useful for guests, when you have large gatherings at the chateau. Or relatives. You may also eventually have an on-site, live-in manager and/or even a gardener, if you fully develop the back grounds. A chef? A handyman like Yanis? You may have rotating staff, like at Chateau LaLande, because of visa requirements. So many possibilities for their use. You are wise to get them fully renovated.
The trees in the courtyard have really grown..must be from all the rain since October..It seems strange in June to see folks in long sleeves but I guess you need that when you weld.
The easiest use of the apartments could be used as partial payment for a grounds keeper, maintenance or manager. You would also have someone on property at all times.
Billy,Mic,Yanis,Phil, plumber. Very intense job of welding. Amazing to think that a welding tig can weld together such a strong bond on steel as to create a permanent bond of strength. Well my babies. Until tomorrow. Please, take care and stay safe. Love ya guys. 🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🙏🌹❤️🌞😇👍🌈🕊🇺🇸
correction.. there is not a variety of non invasive wisteria.. they are all the same..Fabaceae Leguminosae 🤣 It will look amazing though; just the softening that the convent needs. ps frutescens is a variety of the genus Fabaceae; gorgeous.
Many of these spaces at/around convent would be great for wedding photos/catalogue photo shoot, and I can imagine summer/Christmas markets in the courtyard
he heee, Billy you make it a challenge on the welding business with Phil! No worruy, I'm sure You're Both excellent! .and thank you Billy for NOT showing WHERE you stood, cause....I get all that tingeling in my feet !
Can someone interview Yanis. Its like he has an interesting story to tell. Where is he from? Did anyone know he has kids ( if it was them on his instagram ). Just make the man known he deserves it.
I just can't imagine what your plans are for generating income from the convent, especially if there are no plans for the apartments. Now, if you have plans to renovate and sell the convent, that would make sense. I don't mean to be a nag, I just worry!
Are you all going to leave all those layers of flooring in the remaining rooms on the upper floors? Seems like that is extraordinarily heavy and takes up so much space.
What is going to happen to the sagging oak beams supported by lally columns? There are at least two supporting the 2nd floor and one supporting the 3rd floor.
@Billy Petherick Best channel on UA-cam in my opinion. Three things I'd like to ask. 1. Weren't there some old beams laying around in the basement of the convent that could possibly be repurposed? 2. While the welder is out being used would it be worthwhile to touch up the broken burner on the vintage range in the convent kitchen. 3. Wasn't a family member or friend that wished to remain anonymous living in one of the convent apartments or perhaps that was Sadie. Hopefully this comment will be seen and keep up the great work and entertainment.
The old wooden beams in the Basement had been compromised by fungi or woodworm and therefore not suitable for structural use, they could be treated and used for decorative use, I assumed that the apartment was to be used for relatives who since had purchased a new house nearby and Billy and company had helped in renovating recently but this is just my "limited" assumption, he's not using the old stove, it's for decoration, so no need to spend money on repairs, somebody could repair it in the future though!?!
Did anyone notice the silhouette on the glass of the door behind Billy in the first part of the video. It looked like a nun in a habit. I'm sure it was just a coat hanging on the door. Lol!!
Do you have any videos that show the inside of the laundry over by the chapel and garden? You showed the overgrown outside steps leading to it on one of your tour videos. I am new to your channel and loving your videos!
Hats off to Phil, Yanis and Clive! Great work gentlemen! 🙏❤️
Yanis is a work horse. Such a wonderful temperament, willing to tackle any job or new skill or to lend a hand to anyone needing it. He is one lucky young fella who has been nurtured by the whole Petherick family into the skilled tradie he is today. What a WIN / WIN!
Yanis will be a proper general tradesman in short time! Everyone who works with you in your endeavors are brilliant! Cheers Billy!
I bet the locals are glad you're putting all this work into the convent. Well done lads.
Well they might be in 50 years, it's rural France!?!

I missed the pipe cutting filming but he does other jobs no point sending him home after a few hours!
Could you tell me what a bloke is? I’ve heard the term several times but I still don’t know. Thanks!
It's another word for a man. @@yeahisaidthat3008
Bloke = Man 😉😊

I love watching 2 great friends having a great time, and fun!😊😊😊😊
Phil is a great friend to you, I’m glad to see he’s doing okay
Thanks, Phil!!!
What a great view!
It's nice to see Phil again. I've been following his channel, too.
Cheers, Becky
Me too.
I really liked original title to the episode…Phil has brilliant skills❤

Welding, plastering, garden wire….never ending…..great work
Billy, you have a wonderful crew helping you today. Great friends are hard to find.
Way to go Billy and Phil- now on to the floor joists and the flooring it self. :D Crack on Team !
What a great buy your blue elevator has been, when you think of the amount of work it has done, and is still doing!! Onwards and upwards.
Fantastic teamwork.
Nice one every one 👍🤗👍🤗👍🤗👍🤗👍🤗
Love Sue❤❤❤🇬🇧❤❤❤
I'm so excited for the next steps in this renovation😊. Crack on!
I'm in the middle of treating and painting decks so it is lovely to get a cool drink and have a Pethericks break. 😊🍹
Yanis is learning so much. Glad he's turning into 😊a man of many trades
Yanis will be a mastercraftsman when the convent and chateau are done :) Wonderful!
What a get it done day. A lot was accomplished great for you Billy and crew.
Fertilize your wisteria with potash to make it flower.
Nice job Phil

A great job Phil. Great job all around by everyone 😍😘
Looking forward to seeing the floor get installed
The tree outside the window at the end is beautiful! 🇺🇸
I highly recommend that you have some fire extinguishers at the ready. You should actually have someone to act as a fireman as the welding goes on.
Well, done all of you, you all are doing an amazing job, bringing the old lady back to life❤
I like it when a plan comes together like this. Phil says a bit of over engineering but it will hold for sure. Doing great have a wonderful day
Master welder Phil has arrived. Maybe he could also make up a composting bin for Sadie and the family if you don't have one for the hay and manure.
Excellent Progress.
Well done guys, thanks for helping Billy with your expertise 😅.
Love every episode keep going. Btw, In uk, Lechlade antiques ( near Burford)……. Amazing copper and so many treasures for convent and Chateau xxx
When you see sparks flying, it's a sign some real s*** is going down...and Yanis...he will soon be a Journeyman in every craft imaginable 😊
Of course you can hire a rental manager. That's what I do with my rental. I pay 15% but that's your call. It makes landlording quite a bit easier.
Billy & Phil .. Crack On! 👏😊
Adding compost ( even aged horse manure) in the spring will help wisteria to bloom if to much nitrogen add phosphorus to your soil to help it bloom
The trees in the courtyard have really grown..must be from all the rain since October..It seems strange in June to see folks in long sleeves but I guess you need that when you weld.
It's not particularly warm in Northern Europe either, getting an Arctic blast as the gulf stream from Mexico is not in full swing yet!?!
yay! can't wait to see what yous are up to today!🤗
One could say that it should now be, "Crack on and Make it Strong"???? 😁😆😆 Seriously though, things are really coming together! Great work!
Better to be over-engineered than under-engineered. As mentioned hitherto, it's also sensible repurposing any materials actually on-site.
Agree
The easiest use of the apartments could be used as partial payment for a grounds keeper, maintenance or manager. You would also have someone on property at all times.
it’s a great idea! thanks
If I didn’t have too much to do in the UK, I would love to use an apartment and be Head Housekeeper 😀
9:49 Ah, I can see the gaps on that side. That's gonna be fun lol.
hopefully no gaps tomorrow 😂
@@ThePethericks Are all those beams masonry-ed in? Is the metal shrinkage from those gaps a concern?
@@UnbeltedSundew yanis cut those, but it’s nothing we can’t fix!
Billy,Mic,Yanis,Phil, plumber. Very intense job of welding. Amazing to think that a welding tig can weld together such a strong bond on steel as to create a permanent bond of strength. Well my babies. Until tomorrow. Please, take care and stay safe. Love ya guys. 🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🙏🌹❤️🌞😇👍🌈🕊🇺🇸
Rust Rover! How funny!!
Wonder when they will teach Mr. Yanis how to weld? Lol
I'm convinced Yanis can do anything!
Stick welding would have been a much better choice. 6010 and then 7018 rod self cleansing, no surface prep
Its great to have friends like you have ❤
Yanis is like a sponge!
correction.. there is not a variety of non invasive wisteria.. they are all the same..Fabaceae Leguminosae 🤣 It will look amazing though; just the softening that the convent needs. ps frutescens is a variety of the genus Fabaceae; gorgeous.
Wisteria frutescens, non invasive
❤wonderful ❤
Wow Billy what a huge task, take our hat of to you and your awsume help.
Oh Billy you are so daring on them beams, your doing a great job.
Great job welding, Phil! Billy, your welding skills are definitely improving! Well done!
Amazing!
Phil you should have wagered winner to help you at your chateau for a week ❤
Thought someone was redoing an apartment there. Billy showed pictures
That was Ryan and he gave up on that and bought himself a house which he’s doing up. You will find him on the channel Life of Ryan
Convent could be an amazing destination wedding venue. Since it has a chapel.
Many of these spaces at/around convent would be great for wedding photos/catalogue photo shoot, and I can imagine summer/Christmas markets in the courtyard
he heee, Billy you make it a challenge on the welding business with Phil! No worruy, I'm sure You're Both excellent! .and thank you Billy for NOT showing WHERE you stood, cause....I get all that tingeling in my feet !
phil’s is good! we always jest over who’s better at doing things!
@@ThePethericks I can just imagine ; )))
@@ThePethericks ; ))
Lovely vlog again Billy, makes my evening xxx💕💕💕
A grinding wheel and paint will make you the welder that you ain't!
You certainly don't need any L brackets !
👍🏻👍🏻
Can someone interview Yanis. Its like he has an interesting story to tell. Where is he from? Did anyone know he has kids ( if it was them on his instagram ). Just make the man known he deserves it.
If Phil can weld the old rust bucket Range Rover of yours he can weld anything 😊
👍👍👍
You should have a safety vest or roofing vest on Billy. Aren't you afraid of welding sparks setting a fire?
I just can't imagine what your plans are for generating income from the convent, especially if there are no plans for the apartments. Now, if you have plans to renovate and sell the convent, that would make sense. I don't mean to be a nag, I just worry!
Great to see Phil thank you for sharing 😊
How is that floor not busted to pieces by now?
Think you and your team need to go give Phil a hand to remove that big fallen tree he has in his yard
Are you all going to leave all those layers of flooring in the remaining rooms on the upper floors? Seems like that is extraordinarily heavy and takes up so much space.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Hi Clive...from America..😊
Billy im glad you didn’t fall
I'd like to see Billy as a landlord, a French rigsby if you will. 😮
😊🏴
Phil cracks me up
What is going to happen to the sagging oak beams supported by lally columns? There are at least two supporting the 2nd floor and one supporting the 3rd floor.
They aren’t really supporting anything, they are only there just while we are working and removing weight off the floors above 👆
Billy - you have the best helpers ❤. Just stop walking out on the beams 🙏🙏🙏 😩

Very impressive achievement - the steel structure looks awesome Billy - a talented team effort - thanks for another great video Billy
Well done. Would you be a lamb and place the Music Credits in the About section please?
Give Yanis an apartment to live in and renovate on a separate Yanis channel called Yanis Craking On!
This is a nice idea!
An amazing 💡
Is your brother going to post anything on the kitchen?
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
❤😊👍
The walkway around the opening is only going to be about 2 feet wide!
1.70m wide
That is like 5.5 ft approx and that is lots of room
Did anyone notice the silhouette on the glass of the door behind Billy in the first part of the video. It looked like a nun in a habit. I'm sure it was just a coat hanging on the door. Lol!!

Get a local agent to manage the apartments and you won't have to worry about anything.
Do you have any videos that show the inside of the laundry over by the chapel and garden? You showed the overgrown outside steps leading to it on one of your tour videos.
I am new to your channel and loving your videos!
