I doubt you are still checking comments on a 5 year old video but this series on soffit and fascia has made me very confident to tackle a soffit repair job on my family member's garage! I will also be using painted plywood because its an old home.
Hey man, so i recently got a tooth implant so i been laying in bed for 2 days and came across your channel and been binge watching you nonstop. I appreciate your experience and your hardwork. Im currently a manufacturing engineer but now as a hobby i want to learn some carpentry and make some stuff as a hobby. Thank you for your videos and just know some of us appreciate these type of videos because i can admit ive learned alot and you have ignited something in me to want to learn how to do some of this stuff. Thanks
If your customers are worried about EMF, just have them add another layer or two of tin foil to their hat. Works every time. ;) Great set of videos too!
Great how-to videos! I'm about to begin replacing the soffit and fascia around my house working alone. Your videos were just what I needed. Thanks for taking the time to explain every facet of the job. I'm sure I'll be needing more of your videos in the future.
Dude! I just found your channel and must say it's awesome! Not everyone finds their passion in life but it's clear you have. I wish you much continued success and joy like I get from watching these videos.
EMF is a low energy non ionizing radiation, meaning it doesn't have the energy to break apart cells and is pretty much harmless to the human body. Gauss is a measure of magnetic field strength. Volts/meter is a measure of electric field strength. You wouldn't put highly sensitive electronics in an area with extremely strong EMF readings without hardening them in some form, the danger is to electronics, not humans. All electricity creates a electric/magnetic field so the current going through the resistors in your electric heater as well as the blower motor all create EMF.
Emf is electro magnetic field strength/density. The gauss is the unit of magnetic flux density B. You use magnets to cut through copper invisibly to make electricity. (basics) The more stuff you run in the house that is old school bulbs or heaters or large appliances, the more field strength you need, and if you go check your main panel while doing so, you will send your meter buggy. Emf, fields, magnetic pulses are how you send data through the air like cell or radio waves. Magnetic fields seem on the most part harmless for most devices as long as your not close to it. Big antennas= higher field density and more power being output. Being near them is not good because they are running at a higher frequency. Household stuff is for the most part considered safe. The only concern would be transformers like the ones on the poles outside or bigger, if they are inside you should probably not be eating your lunch around it just in case. lol. On the other side we are being swamped with more signals then ever before being routers, phones, tablets, and computers. People claiming sensitivity is probably more fear based than anything. Like aliens! I still have not seen one!
Great video, by any chance, do you have any video how to replace windows? I will love to see that, next year I have couple of old windows that they need it to be changed.
Any baffling above the soffit vents? I always try to install them if I’m removing the soffit. The better ventilated the attic is the longer you’re roof will last
Have someone call your phone and test for that EMF, maybe something interesting will show up. Maybe even test your wifi router in your home, maybe something will present itself on the EMF tester device.
@The Handyman, how do you know where to shoot the nail to? I saw you touched it but the beam was covered especially the ones under the metal roof at 11:07
I thought you weren't supposed to seal the underside of joints(caulking the trim) on a house in case there's water ingress it will trap the water so it cannot drain. Sounds reasonable, your thoughts? Also the template was a nice idea.
Thank you for making these videos. I have two questions for you on the soffit wood you installed. How thick is the ply and what grade did you use? Oh, and what gauge of nails and length did you staple those boards with? I just want to thank you in advance. I truly appreciate it!
Thanks a lot for great video content. One suggestion; you could use glasses with camera built-in to record some projects. I think it would be easier and less time consuming.
If people are asking why your priming all sides... I really hope they arent doing projects like this. Priming all sides shows you the difference between a good handyman and an amateur with little experience. My motto is whats under or inside your work, shows your skill and worth more than the outside. DO IT RIGHT!
Exactly. I had a discussion with a friend who wasn’t happy with a GSM pole across the street. I explained that the antenna’s on that pole transmit with the same amount of power as his cellphone does. So it’s like being scared by a bunch of cellphones across the street. To clarify: imagine two people at a distance. Only one has a loudspeaker 📢. They wouldn’t be able to communicate. It’s the same for cellphones. It doesn’t make sense to have a strong amplifier at the pole and not on the cellphone. You’d have great reception but would not be able to transmit back. So if you’re really concerned with cellphone radiation, don’t hold it to your head but put it in hands free mode all the time. But to be honest, just don’t be concerned.
curious the jig to keep the vents consistent and marked out quickly was great however how did you know where to ahead of time the correct place to put them?
I have noticed that my garage door opener will not work consistently if it has a CFL light bulb installed. Changed it to LED and no problem. I was very surprised when my friend told me to change the bulb and it actually worked.
As always, love your videos and work Handyman, brilliant pro-tip on the temporary power outlet. Quick Q - I know you don't care about the newest shiny tool, but you also love efficiency. If you were doing the job TODAY (3 years later), would you be using a battery powered nail gun or stick with air powered?
Thanks for another great video and I've enjoyed this series. I have a big section of fascia i need to replace. Put in is more like it. I have about a 20 ft hole on the back side of our mobile home. No leaks so far so I'm lucky in that part. I have a question on why you put sofit in 1st and not the fascia? Thanks for a great series, Rodney
Your pretty damn good dude! & know how to elude to how difficult customers can be without actually saying it good for you! just stay honest at the same time true professional !
Great job! Quick question: for projects like this where you do prep work in your shop, do you factor that in at the same rate as if you were working onsite? Just curious. Thanks!
Its a lump sum price. It's not really hourly I do factor how much time it will take me to do a job in my pricing. I had one week of work in this job and I wanted to make a certain amount of money for this job.
Amazing work and effort. Few and far between these days. As far as EMF goes there hasnt been any negative health benefits proven to date that I am aware of. In large prolonged quantities there could be negative health benefits which I believe is the crux of the whole "5g gives you cancer" fiasco that people are worried about. Coming from the telecom industry typically the only concern we have is the amount of interference that it causes to the equipment that we use to provide service to locations I.E. radio shots, satellite uplinks ect. But to interfere with that equipment it has to be larger power sources such as large generators or other broadcasting devices operating on the same frequency. In the typical residential environment the most harm EMF could cause is probably WiFi interference. Anyways, keep up the great work!
There have been ongoing concerns over the levels of Electromagnetic Fields (EMF’s) and the effects on humans. Anyplace that has electrical transformers, florescent light ballasts, even the high voltage overhead power lines that bisect residential neighborhoods will generate various levels of EMF. My industry (wireless communications) takes energy radiation levels very serious as engineers/technicians are required to perform installations or maintenance to (transmit) antennas mounted on building rooftops or radio towers. The people required to perform their jobs in high level EMF locations are trained to take the necessary precautions. OSHA and the FCC have set mandatory guidelines to protect the wellbeing of the general public. Opposing arguments have been addressed on this topic, but our modern-day lifestyles have us exposed to very minimal levels of EMF most of the time.
Thanks for posting your comment. It's important that people don't simply poo-poo an idea simply because they don't understand it. Science is a way for us to understand the natural world, so let's seek understanding and the requisite causality so we can make better choices for our health and safety. And please God protect us from those who would prey on our fears by lying and false testimony.
damn! how tall are you? you're taller than the security door there in the video about 16:07. And you're not standing on anything.... you must be a giant! thanks for sharing!
Supervisor and the 1951 Natural gas regulator. Sorry I retired from Southwest Gas Corp July 2016 after 35 years and changed many of that style of Reg out not safe.
Yes. This man is very good. I broke my stones in the mid 1970's working for a 'huge' builder and learned everything from testing for suitable housing/commercial soil, to the to the footing to the ridge. He is my mini me. You can learn from him, he's real.
I wouldn't call myself an expert in EMF but I am an electrical engineer that works for the electric utility and I have to perform EMF investigations as part of my job. I am not worried about emf from electric circuits in your home at all. Cell phones are about 100000(made up number) times worse that the electric circuits in your home. Try your meter on your phone sometime and I bet you'll be surprised.
+Travis Phillips I have been wanting to switch all my nailers to airless. Thats over a $1000 investment. I will be getting a new airless gun every few months to spread out the cost. Im going with the 20v dewalt since I already have the batteries.
I have a dewalt airless gun and love it. No compressor, cords or lines. Less stuff to haul around and get the same performance of a regular gun in my opinion.
Cool video great job but in South Florida never would have been that easy fascia wood is behind 1 by furring strip both are shot from the top through drip edge and 16 penny nails everywhere because of hurricane code the rip and the prep would have been a nightmare and no one here wants to spend that type of money for that quality of a job have laid wood floors of all types for over 20 years and would be picked apart on every single job! Probably one of the last natives left in South Florida thinking it's about time to leave and relocate to a place where people appreciate quality craftsmanship.
Great video as always and great job..how do you like that ridgid framing nailer? Also I just switched to white lighting 3006 caulking you buy at Lowe's it's really good stuff just curious if you had used that type before?
I had to buy the ridged framing nailer because I left my Hitachi at the house and the next day it was gone. I did get a good deal on the ridged because it was on a pre black Friday sale. Works really good. I haven't used the white lighting caulk Is it paintable? I look for it the next time I'm at lowes.
The Handyman... yea it is, I found out about it from watching the Idaho painter on you tube. works really great both interior and exterior...I just got another house that ima be doing some remodelling and that's when I'll really be able to tell how well it works so far it's great.i just got a Hitachi nailer I wanted the ridgid but they where sold out at my store
My mother wears EMF jewelry and has plates around the house to absorb them. She even gave me a stone to wear. She had ablation surgery to stop Atrial Fib and is afraid too much EMF will cause it to return. anything to make her happy.
Ive just started watching a few of your videos and had a sneaking suspicion I knew where you are located based on the construction of the area, but my suspicions were realized when I saw the monstrosity across the street and knew exactly which house you were working on. ;)
Electromagnetic fields can be generated by AC or DC currents. An EMF meter can measure AC electromagnetic fields, which are usually emitted from man-made sources such as electrical wiring, while gaussmeters or magnetometers measure DC fields, which occur naturally in Earth's geomagnetic fieldand are emitted from other sources where direct current is present.
Agree, that was created in the 80's and completely debunked in studies after that. Australia did the first study proving absolutely no relationship to EMF and cancer but rumors persist.
Some of those random spooks that go around are so stupid, magnetic fields aren't going to cause problems unless maybe you're going to go take a good long sleep in an MRI. Sadly, people freaking out about something they heard on the internet/news will rarely listen to reason. :p Good thinking on placing the boards from the roof before attaching them, it's little things like that that make your life less stressful. Better to take a few trips up to the roof, rather than having to come back through to patch up the paint, and maybe even use some filler. Personally, I have a 3.0Ah on my multitool (It's a makita if that matters to you).
It’s commonly used for ghost...😂 and it’s just like saying the word gauss, it sounds just like the way you say The fluffy stuff you use to pack a wound, or cutt to halt bleeding.GAUSS , ie.. I used gauss and tape for his wound ... now go find some ghosts!!! 🤪👍
I can't believe you didn't have any runnout on the soffit your videos help to educate the customers on what it takes to do a quality job they need to know that there's fitting involved potential client's don't understand these things all they think is your trieing to stack the bill
Yeah, you mentioned you were about 20 days in, expected it would take about 35. Then went on to talking about no 40 hour workweeks or 5 day workweeks...
Gauss is pronounced like Grouse without the R - Gous. mG is mili-Gauss. The other measure is Tesla's or Micro-Tesla's. You have to be exposed to a very high volume for a very long time for it to have any significant effect.

+oranges naranjas Hey thanks for the comment. Glad you are getting some use out of my videos.
Everybody learns here, a whole lot of professional workmanship !
I really appreciate your sharing the tips while working solo. When you don't have help and work alone using your ideas are golden.😉
Nice idea with the jig to keep the vents consistent and marked out quickly. Great tips on working alone as well
If your customers are worried about EMF, just have them add another layer or two of tin foil to their hat. Works every time. ;) Great set of videos too!
watch Better Call Saul for more info on EMF.

Thanks for the 3 videos! My husband and I feel more comfortable tackling our project now...wish you were here.
Your vids on this project were outstanding. Thanks. Learned alot.
Dude! I just found your channel and must say it's awesome! Not everyone finds their passion in life but it's clear you have. I wish you much continued success and joy like I get from watching these videos.
What size nails did you use and what size nailer?

Matt Unless....you have a pace maker.😳
indeed lol, didn't think of that! i probably wouldn't want to walk under some high voltage lines if I had a pacemaker!
Thanks for clear explanation.
everything in our bodies work off of electricity
@@mattpkp My father does every day and has no problems at all. The emf fields are not anywhere close to being strong enough.

What kind of nails are you using?
no vents in the soffits?
No moisture to speak 🗣️ of brother… haha 😂
great Job, your an outstanding Teacher/instructor. Keep it up. thanks.
When 5G comes out ther will be big electro magnetic fields, !!! They recon it can kill cells in your body.!!!
Great video, by any chance, do you have any video how to replace windows? I will love to see that, next year I have couple of old windows that they need it to be changed.
Any baffling above the soffit vents? I always try to install them if I’m removing the soffit. The better ventilated the attic is the longer you’re roof will last
Do you put a groove on the back side of the fascia board to receive the edge of the soffit? I
No
Bummer, I was hoping you were in So. Cal. , I have some projects to get done 😊
But, Texas is a pretty sweet place to live 👍
Have someone call your phone and test for that EMF, maybe something interesting will show up. Maybe even test your wifi router in your home, maybe something will present itself on the EMF tester device.
Im from Connecticut, I watch your videos everyday.. and try to learn something new from it..your becoming a role model lol
@The Handyman, how do you know where to shoot the nail to? I saw you touched it but the beam was covered especially the ones under the metal roof at 11:07
When I saw the EMF Detector I immediately thought of Sam and Dean from Supernatural
Better Call Saul..Not only a great show but.. you’ll also learn about EMF.. And , EMF was a pretty good 90s band..
unbelievable
i like your rolling carts that you used to help with handling cutting the plywood where did you get them or did you make them ?
I made them. I found the factory rollers on craigslist. they came in 10 foot long sections.
7:45 ... What brand is that ladder? Every single other brand I've had at that angle slides right off the ground
I thought you weren't supposed to seal the underside of joints(caulking the trim) on a house in case there's water ingress it will trap the water so it cannot drain. Sounds reasonable, your thoughts? Also the template was a nice idea.

Have you heard of the tape method you tape off the area you wana seal after you pull it off it’s a super nice bead
Do you have a parts list? like prefer primer what size nail etc.. etc.. what tools and equipment used? etc.. for a first timer
Thanks a lot for great video content. One suggestion; you could use glasses with camera built-in to record some projects. I think it would be easier and less time consuming.

I just love how people complain about electric magnetic fields (EMF’s).
But yet though have a cell phone pressed against their head day and night.

Great job mandyhan!
Great use of stilts or Jacks buddy. I am a one man show myself and always appreciate smart work. LIKED, SUBBED, COMMENT.
What size of nails u use?
curious the jig to keep the vents consistent and marked out quickly was great however how did you know where to ahead of time the correct place to put them?
The eyeball method. space them evenly and try not to put them over windows and doors.
What nail you used for soffit and fascia?
I have noticed that my garage door opener will not work consistently if it has a CFL light bulb installed. Changed it to LED and no problem. I was very surprised when my friend told me to change the bulb and it actually worked.

Answer dewalt cordless, watched more “future” videos lol.
I am going to need you to come to Buffalo, NY
On my way.
@@TheHandyman1 I can't believe you replied! Lol, I love your videos, they are great. Your work is so good!
What kind of vents are they?
when nailing the fascia or cutting the vents out how do you know where the wood beams studs are behind it? I just see you nailing It so fast .
He would of nailed the soffit to each beam/rafter tail when he installed. So you simply place your template inbetween the nail holes
Thanks for another great video and I've enjoyed this series. I have a big section of fascia i need to replace. Put in is more like it. I have about a 20 ft hole on the back side of our mobile home. No leaks so far so I'm lucky in that part. I have a question on why you put sofit in 1st and not the fascia? Thanks for a great series, Rodney
pretty sweet when you connected the outlet outside
You said it only took 5 hours to do the oning section, but how many hours you spend prepping the timber for it
nice work, nice work ethic. enjoyed it!
Your pretty damn good dude! & know how to elude to how difficult customers can be without actually saying it good for you! just stay honest at the same time true professional !
Great job! Quick question: for projects like this where you do prep work in your shop, do you factor that in at the same rate as if you were working onsite? Just curious. Thanks!
Its a lump sum price. It's not really hourly I do factor how much time it will take me to do a job in my pricing. I had one week of work in this job and I wanted to make a certain amount of money for this job.
Are you using a frame nail gun or a finishing nail gun ?
Framing, It shoots siding nails too.
Hello, I am watching and noticed the comment about scratches on soffit, next time you might try pvc pipe to slide the new piece in place.
Lots of angry ghosts in that space heater. Bananas and brazil nuts for real ionizing radiation.
California, land of fruits and nuts!
I live in California and couldn’t agree more. Almost ready to retire and move away.
Are you sure California? Rarely see brick houses in Cali.Texas have a bunch though.
oregon
he states in his videos he is not in California. Yes, I agree California sucks
looks like Chicago to me. North side.
Ventilation/soffits: when you marked the location for the vents, how did you calculate were the 2X4's were not?
just looked for the nails. But if there is 2x4 in the hole its not going to be in the way.

Your a true craftsman. I think if you put an ad for an internship, apprenticeship, you can get some free labor and most importantly help someone.
Yes. This man is very good. I broke my stones in the mid 1970's working for a 'huge' builder and learned everything from testing for suitable housing/commercial soil, to the to the footing to the ridge. He is my mini me. You can learn from him, he's real.
Best part is after you test for the customer they will get on their cell phone and call their friends their house is safe. To funny
How much you charge for that one?
I wouldn't call myself an expert in EMF but I am an electrical engineer that works for the electric utility and I have to perform EMF investigations as part of my job. I am not worried about emf from electric circuits in your home at all.
Cell phones are about 100000(made up number) times worse that the electric circuits in your home. Try your meter on your phone sometime and I bet you'll be surprised.
Can you ghost hunt with that EM tester?
I think so
How much would you charge per square footage to do a job like that, labor only?
On jobs like this it is by the linear foot not square foot. I think this was 360 linear feet and I think the total cost was around $9,000.
love the go pro even though it made me dizzy lol... do you have an opinion on the airless nail guns? like a framing nailer powered by battery?
+Travis Phillips I have been wanting to switch all my nailers to airless. Thats over a $1000 investment. I will be getting a new airless gun every few months to spread out the cost. Im going with the 20v dewalt since I already have the batteries.

Amazing Channel!
Cool video great job but in South Florida never would have been that easy fascia wood is behind 1 by furring strip both are shot from the top through drip edge and 16 penny nails everywhere because of hurricane code the rip and the prep would have been a nightmare and no one here wants to spend that type of money for that quality of a job have laid wood floors of all types for over 20 years and would be picked apart on every single job! Probably one of the last natives left in South Florida thinking it's about time to leave and relocate to a place where people appreciate quality craftsmanship.
Poor old Chuck from 'better call saul'. he believed all that pseudo gibberish about electromagnetic fields too.
Microwaves have a good amount of emf in it. When you are three feet away from a microwave, you are exposed to up to 25 mG.
Soffit boards with no openings for ventilation?
Part 4 is all about attic ventilation.
Learn a lot from your videos nice job
How do you know where to put the nails ?
+Perfectdark I marked where the rafter tails were
Ok
That ladder angle looked scary. Stay safe!
When it slips out on him he'll buy a 16 or remember to take it to the job.
+Don Nash It was a little scary.
You are inspiring some young guys to get into this work. Safety first.
I was thinking the same thing. There is no way you would get me on a ladder set up like that unless the bottom was staked.
EMF not really dangerous only or usually effects other electronic equipment and most of the equipment in your home are EMF
Protected
Did you test a cell phone for "EMF"? just curios....by the way, great videos, keep em comin!
Yeah everything messed up starts here on the left coast. At least with that EMF you can now find ghosts!...
Great video as always and great job..how do you like that ridgid framing nailer? Also I just switched to white lighting 3006 caulking you buy at Lowe's it's really good stuff just curious if you had used that type before?

My mother wears EMF jewelry and has plates around the house to absorb them. She even gave me a stone to wear. She had ablation surgery to stop Atrial Fib and is afraid too much EMF will cause it to return. anything to make her happy.
Might as well waste her money there than on something that can be harmful, such as nano-silver and other trash.
I guess all those smart meters are harmless too?
What state do you work out of?
Texas
Ive just started watching a few of your videos and had a sneaking suspicion I knew where you are located based on the construction of the area, but my suspicions were realized when I saw the monstrosity across the street and knew exactly which house you were working on. ;)
Is anyone living in this house while you are working on it?
Skilled to the max.
I'd really like to see you paint that awning too, it looks like crap!
35 days plus another 2-3 weeks for gutters...man you have patient customers!

An EMF meter can measure AC electromagnetic fields, which are usually emitted from man-made sources such as electrical wiring, while gaussmeters or magnetometers measure DC fields, which occur naturally in Earth's geomagnetic fieldand are emitted from other sources where direct current is present.

EMF worries is mostly bogus pseudoscience kinda junk.
Agree, that was created in the 80's and completely debunked in studies after that. Australia did the first study proving absolutely no relationship to EMF and cancer but rumors persist.
Spacewolf is right this is all bunkum, there is emf all around from natural sources the human body has had millions of years to adjust to this.
EMF is Chicken Little, or worse. Shouldn't scare a real man.
What they call science today is pseudo.
Well good job
CALIFORNIA!... :-O oh no...I LIVE THERE!
Another great video!
Some of those random spooks that go around are so stupid, magnetic fields aren't going to cause problems unless maybe you're going to go take a good long sleep in an MRI. Sadly, people freaking out about something they heard on the internet/news will rarely listen to reason. :p
Good thinking on placing the boards from the roof before attaching them, it's little things like that that make your life less stressful. Better to take a few trips up to the roof, rather than having to come back through to patch up the paint, and maybe even use some filler.
Personally, I have a 3.0Ah on my multitool (It's a makita if that matters to you).
It’s commonly used for ghost...😂 and it’s just like saying the word gauss, it sounds just like the way you say The fluffy stuff you use to pack a wound, or cutt to halt bleeding.GAUSS , ie.. I used gauss and tape for his wound ... now go find some ghosts!!! 🤪👍
I can't believe you didn't have any runnout on the soffit your videos help to educate the customers on what it takes to do a quality job they need to know that there's fitting involved potential client's don't understand these things all they think is your trieing to stack the bill
if you have a large gap ...cut a new piece of wood...indeed my friend..indeed....thank you for your service...
how much do you charge for that job @35 days?
35 days?
Total was around $10,000 NOT including the new gutters
Yeah, you mentioned you were about 20 days in, expected it would take about 35. Then went on to talking about no 40 hour workweeks or 5 day workweeks...
by the way thanks for all the information
Gauss is pronounced like Grouse without the R - Gous. mG is mili-Gauss. The other measure is Tesla's or Micro-Tesla's. You have to be exposed to a very high volume for a very long time for it to have any significant effect.
