Joel, you are giving so much information that I feel you are not scrimping on anything. You are helping hose of us who are just learning how to do renovations. Thank you so very much.
It's really nice that you put the bloopers at the end, because when we only we the "normal" video, I feel like it seems easy and like you do it all in one take, put it's far from the reality and the bloopers help to see that!
Joel, these videos are some of my favourite on UA-cam. I don’t own a house but I feel like I’m learning loads due to you simple and informative teaching technique! Also must say it’s super satisfying watching this house makeover! 👏🏼
You explain things so well, Joel. I have no knowledge of home renovations or building but find it very interesting. Thanks for sharing this vlog with us.
I can’t help but feel like God brought this opportunity to y’all during this time for a reason! The ultimate quarantine family project. I’ve always wanted to renovate a house, but have zero skills. Enjoying watching the process. Can’t wait to see how it all turns out!
I love the end of your videos! That is so me when I am trying to film myself 😆 I'm a mom of 3 soon to be 4. We did a complete rip of the basement to make rooms for all the kids. I like this content because we diy everything, except that which needs engineers or permits :)
Joel - I remember that you showed a step by process for fixing a dripping outside waterspout on Bonnie's channel a few years ago. I am needing to fix ours (should have 2 years ago) and that video or an updated one on this channel will be welcomed to make me feel like I could do it myself. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and experiences with us.
Really enjoy your videos! You are so smart and talented. However, I don't think you need to do the outtakes But you are terrific! Keep up the good work. .
Joel you are doing so much work to that house. I can't help but wonder if you regret buying this house vs building a new one since you are redoing A LOT to this house. I can't wait to see the finished product.
This was great info! I really enjoy watching, even though I’m not doing any of this stuff. I will say I would love to see a quick clip of it when this particular project is finished. Like when you’d done the other side. And what did you do in the cement bit? Other than that, It was great.
Yes I will be showing what I did on the concert in a couple videos. I am so glad you want to see that. It turned out awesome and the floors already feel better.
thank you for great video. I have simple question about my situation. I have uneven floor joists all around the 2nd floor(townhome). It seems like the center of the building is sank. So do you recommend to plane some high leveled joists? or attach sister joists on almost everywhere? If I go with highest floor joist then I get 5/8" higher than current stair nose. Please help.
I would probably plane them only because cost will be much lower, and the task will be much more simple. Good Luck. You can use self leveling cement for heights up to 1".
Why it is colder after the sun comes up... It is coldest an hour after the sun comes up because the sun has been off of the ground for the longest time at that point. It had gone down the day before and stopped warming the ground and even though it has come up it has not had a chance to warm anything up yet. That is why it gets colder as the sun comes up in a weird anomaly.
I'd like to know the shear rating for hanger nails. I see inch and a half nails holding up entire floors all the time and inspectors never say anything so I guess they pass. I guess you're getting almost the entire inch and a half in the girder on the face nails but you ain't getting nothing on the toenails.

Once a week update is not enough! I’m addicted to this and you’re so good at explaining things. Thanks for sharing this with us! 👌
Thought I was the only only one. Always eagerly waiting for the next video. Can't wait to see the complete product.
8 minutes is a tease but Thank you for the video. Wish you had enough to vlog daily. Love watching !

We just bought a 100 year old house, we have big dreams for it. I love seeing you do things that we will probably need to do down the road!
JOEL!!!! ONCE AGAIN GREAT VLOG
I WISH IT WERE LONGER. JOEL YOU HAVE A WAY OF PRESENTING THINGS AND MAKE IT INTERESTING. THANK YOU⛏⛏
I love that you keep the bloopers in at the end.

Amazing demonstration and proper strategy 👏
Thank you 🙏
I am enjoying this journey, each bit is making it closer to the end and knowing the job is well done!
I groaned when I saw you hit your thumb. Man! That had to hurt! God Bless you and the family.
Fantastic video!....watched some of your other videos and really liked how you described and go thru steps....just subscribed!
Thanks. They have several Tapcon screws for going into concrete. Which ones did you use?
Look I’m not flipping a house nor am I a carpenter But you bet I’m watching these videos!!!

Will Do, but it might be a while.
Thank you!

This was super helpful. Thanks for taking the time and effort to video and share.
Awesome job my friend, truly learning from you. I cannot thank you enough cheers mate 🙏👍👍🙏
Joel you are doing so much work to that house. I can't help but wonder if you regret buying this house vs building a new one since you are redoing A LOT to this house. I can't wait to see the finished product.
Hi Joel, Could you please do some lawn videos this summer. You have a beautiful yard. Just wondering what type of fertilizer you use. Thanks!
for sure they will be coming soon.
Great video explaining the process, etc.! Keep it up!
I'm watching this series even though I'll likely never do any of these tasks! Nice to know you can rebuild a house essentially!
Great work I'd trust you to do my work 👍
Coming along real nice.
So when that outer area was leveled did you come close to the level of the original floor?
You are so good at explaining everything! Keep up the great work!
Are we using structural screws vs regular screws?
Yes, they need a specific structural rating which will be on the box,
Smallest screw and nail from simpson are 1and half inch will that protrude thru a single rim joist?
Very helpful video! Thanks!

Well Done
Do I need a hammer drill to go into concrete or can I use my regular drill with a masonry drill bit?
You will want a hammer drill.
Can you do that to a concrete wall for floor joist
I love these videos Joel! We have to put in vinyl floors, I would love to see an instillation video if you will be using vinyl anywhere ☺️☺️☺️☺️
Great job!
I could watch Joel all day :P
Awesome! What state are you in, we have a floor in TN that needs to be finished🤣 no, seriously! Thanks
Clever approach, so many useful details. Are those tapcons 1/4"x4"? Do you have any rough idea on what shear or pullout strength you need?
what did you use for the joists above the concrete pad area now? Great content thanks!
I cut some treated lumber to go there.
Be super careful not to tumble in! Looks so good!
what did you do to the span across the concrete slab? Is there shot of what is when it is complete?
Yes I will be showing what I did on the concert in a couple videos. I am so glad you want to see that. It turned out awesome and the floors already feel better.
What will you out over the concrete porch so there is no gap there?
I just finished that yesterday so the TT-Video will be here soon.
You should definitely do vlogs or time lapses of you doing work. When you’re not teaching us sowmthing, show us the rest. it’s so interesting
Thanks
How long were the screws used for the joist hanger? 1 1/2? Thanks
I think they are about 1.25 inches long. They are special structural screws found in the hardware section of Lowes and Home Depot.
@@TodaysTask thanks do you recall the brand?
so much work being done joel but it will b all worth it in the end,,..
great job

@@TodaysTask thank you very much! I wasn't sure to do. It's time to start.
I would buy a house from you Joel !
👏👏👍 excellent explanation and it is a good support job
Interesting content 👍🏼
Great work! Does the house still have a bad smell? Just curious.
Yes it does! We will have to fix that later
The hammer crush... .I feel it.
I guess Joel is secretly building his own house. 1% of his heart think that.
My husband suggests you put something between the wood and the cement so you don’t get dry rot.
Bonnie is sooo lucky lol
why don't you use a palm nailer instead of a hammer?
Why it is colder after the sun comes up...
It is coldest an hour after the sun comes up because the sun has been off of the ground for the longest time at that point.

I guess you're getting almost the entire inch and a half in the girder on the face nails but you ain't getting nothing on the toenails.
It will give you the strength break down on the box, but they have to say structural on the box.
💜💜💜💜💜
I basically have the same problem.
It might be to code and might work, but professional work is always better.
I need an hour long video lol
