    Meticulous, and almost perfect, respectfully leaving intact the house's history. I love watching this couple: Marina is a lovely, charming girl, fearless on ladders, scaffolds and rafters, and Illia is every woman's dream - a strong, strapping guy who does jobs around the house and admits to his mistakes. Almost perfect.

    • @jt1364
      @jt1364 7 місяців тому +6

      Marina is a woman. Her daughter is a girl. Do you notice Marina doing projects also? If not please review previous videos.

    • @laurelwilkinson2594
      @laurelwilkinson2594 7 місяців тому

      I apologize to Marina if I've caused offense. Where I live it is no insult to call a woman a girl, and some women prefer it. And certainly she would not be climbing ladders, scaffolds and rafters if she were not doing projects. I meant only to applaud the industry and talent of both. @@jt1364

    Illia seems to know how to do everything…from roofing to plumbing to electrical wiring! And teaches himself how to do something if he is new to it. Two words for him, though~~knee pads or knee protectors. They strap on over your jeans and come in very handy when you are up and down often… as when he was sealing the wood floor. He will be glad he took care of his knees in another ten years or so! The tiny house is coming along beautifully. So glad for you two!

    I must admit that I never cease to be amazed by your willingness to commit to hard work as a couple/ family, Illia constantly seems inhumanly unstoppable and then we see Marina on her knees scrubbing the floor....
    People,, I ache for days after watching your videos Please spare a thought for us old folks watching you young folks behave like superheroes😉🤣
    I am just kidding of course (apart from the compliments which were real and meant) please keep working hard and inspiring others to follow their own dreams - stay safe

      I'm wondering if the tiles are made of asbestos. If your tiles are faded, yellowed, stained, greasy or oily looking, or show other discoloration in spots, that may be an indication that they contain asphalt and thus asbestos.

    If you would like to get rid of the rust and marks on your floor, maybe try some CLR (calcium, lime and rust) remover. It will probably do the trick. Most hardware stores have it or do the Amazon thing. It's looking great! Keep at it.

    The wood floor looks great! The rust on the tile might be removed by using baking soda. Just mix a small amount of water until you have a paste, spread it on the rust and leave it for an hour or so, then use a stiff brush and work on the rust. Also, if you can find floor wax spread that all over the floor like Illya did with the wood floor. That should help with the dullness. BTW, if the dark spot is mildew, plain clorine bleach should help lighten that as well.

    It is wild the work you are putting into the little house when this will be your temporary house while working on the main house. At least there is a lot of lessons learned. And I’m glad there is still a long time we get to follow you two. It could be an idea to put linoleum over those tiles, it adds some softness and insulation. And Ilia - there are specific cutters for cutting insulation off wires.

    You did a pretty good job stripping the insulation, I'm an electrician and it can be very difficult, depending on the manufacturer. I always ran the stanley knife along the length and made a circle at the bottom, but you get used to how much force to use without cutting into the wire.👍
