    This video saved my ass big time. What turned from a simple bathroom remodel to finding out the sub floor under the toilet and surrounding the tub was TOTALLY rotted I was petrified to tackle it scared of doing it wrong and someone would fall through the floor while doing their business on the can, but this video seriously calmed me down and I realized it’s not rocket science. Since then there has been a few more instances where I had to repair some subfloor and I ALWAYS come back to this for a refresher. This guy is pure knowledge around the house and teaches it in a fun, super easy-to follow way.

I’m unable to get up& down from a floor due to arthritis, I KNOW I could do this, but since I cant & must hire a handyman at least I know he won’t be screwing me over, plus this shouldn’t be that expensive to repair, now to find an honest guy.

    Thanks for the video. Was replacing the flooring in the laundry area of my house. Previous owner did not go far enough out when they had a leak, so I found subfloor rot a little further down than original repair. Glad to know I had done it right. Some things in home repair are just as simple as they seem. It's like you've said, you just have to have the confidence.
    Wish I had found this channel when I first bought my house. So many repairs that you have done, that I've had to do already. Your videos are way more straight forward than some of the other instructions I've gotten.

    Good tutorial. A few comments/recommendations.
    If subfloor was glued and nailed could be problematic getting the subfloor to release. Also when cutting along the center line of the floor joist, be sure to remove all the nails holding the subfloor down otherwise you could trash your circular saw blade.
    Usually the subfloor is nailed down with ring-shank nails which are a bitch to get out.
    Here's an alternative method. Instead of attempting to cut the centerline of the floor joist, cut along the inside edge of it with a circular saw finishing with a recipro-saw then "sister" a 2 x 6 joist to the existing as shown on other walls. This also is a more forgiving cut if you're not on the centerline of the joist giving you an 1.5 inch to screw down the subfloor replacement etc.

      hey kozmick! great suggestions!..Ive found unless you have a cats paw or some other sweet nail removal tool, its takes too much time and effort to remove the nails. i usually dont mind trashing the saw blade to get it right the first time. Thanks so much for commenting and watching!

    Thanks for this ! I can’t do the work, but at least now I feel that I can find someone that can & that it’s possible to properly support a small area like this , without paying out to have the whole floor fixed !
    Thanks 🙏

    That was perfect I think most people are afraid of power tools even some of my male friends are frightened by the loud noise never having used them. And they are also afraid of tearing something out and not understanding what they're looking at but my God it is such an easy trade in most situations repairs patches sometimes it feels like absolute Common Sense although common sense is not that Common Man good job I'm glad you made this video to show how people can easily repair rotted floorboard themselves.

      Hey bukk..... He said "shady". we know the type...I find most people don't mind paying for good work but they are skeptical of contractors right away because of our tarnished history..like lawyers..lol Working inside a customer's budget ( obviously you making the money youre happy with also) keeps them coming back every time they need something fixed...the long game is so much more important..thanks for sharing my friend!

    Great work. At 2:45 you make an excellent observation and comment, "Now this board is sound" referring to the joist, but I thought I would add some emphasis to the need of checking that joist because you're a pro and made that determination quickly. When the subfloor is that rotten it is good to thoroughly check if the joist is sound. In my house, when I removed the subfloor I found that the leak that caused the subfloor to rot also rotted out the joist and it had to be reinforced by sistering (a whole process that maybe Dustin could do a video on). Just a thought.

    • @homemend
      @homemend  6 років тому

      awesome suggestion infra....sistering is definitely a sweet solution for a rotted joist...thanks so much for the video idea!
