I'm not even going to try and spell the process but I'd like to know more about the covering she applied to the bathroom walls. One of the last step or maybe it is the last step after you apply the olive oil and soap is to buff it. What do you biff it with? A car buffer? Where do you get the limestone plaster? I'm really intrigued.
I love the look of the countertop, but I disagree on the overlap. Either a but joint halflap might have been a better look. I don't like the raised edge from the stone to the wood transition. Also have to think any spills getting between those joints and causing mold and mildew.
I was going to say it's a beautiful fit, but there needs to be some kind of sealant to keep liquids and gunk from getting in there. Even if it was flush, it would have to be sealed. Hopefully they know that.
They just didn't show it. You think that he was doing countertops for years, he would not do that? They don't show every little detail. But I would have used 2 or 3 screws on each bracket. Not just one.
I didn't think I'd like the overlap, but I think seeing the final result it looks good. With a butt or half lap, I'd worry that as it shrank with the seasons the gap would grow and it wouldn't be flush any more, which would drive me crazy. As for caulking, they had JUST finished the install when he was doing the outro, so they most likely did that after filming wrapped.
Weird to not put any silicone or some kind of caulking between the stone and wood, especially on the overlap. That's definitely not watertight, so anything spilled will go down into it and eventually rot/mold. I'm hoping they put some in and just edited that part out
I am concerned that with the bottleneck of covid causing delays and the deadline not moving causing a clambor, there are going to be problems that shouldnt exist.
Bluestone raised vegetable garden beds? I guess that what you get when cost is no object. But then, if cost is no object, why not go all the way and make them out of granite? SMH.
I'm going to say this is why they use Bluestone and not granite along with the fact you probably look better with their plans.. Granite being hard is difficult to cut into slabs of the desired size. Their weight makes installation difficult. With Bluestone, cutting them in slabs of desired shapes is possible. They can be installed and transported easily, in comparison to Granite. Let's be honest. You cannot install or work on Granite pavers and tiles on your own. You would require professional help and remember at its core this is a DIY show. Also they cover two different color ranges... Bluestone generally comes in shades of grey and blue. They can be easily honed and sanded to achieve desired textures like sawn, flamed, or cleft. Granite comes in multiple colours and shades. They are available in exfoliated, bush-hammered, and flamed textures. So being able to shape it on site is likely the biggest reason why they chose blue stone over anything similar.
@@nickbrockelman The granite comment is meant to be sarcastic. I merely said that because I believe the whole idea of making raised garden beds out of blue stone is ridiculous. I believe that treated wood is the proper material, and using blue stone is merely an exercise of obvious excess, so that's why I said why not make them out of granite.
Don't like the look of the counter top much. Also, it may not be a crumb catcher, but it isn't watertight, unless you didn't show the step where you silicone sealed the space between the stone and the wood.
The final project will be overblown and without a human scale. The original cute historic house seems like a token tack- on to an expensive mish mash of construction. Lots of money spent. Another McMansion.
It's not for everyone, but I like the look of it. Well, I'm not a huge fan of the colors they picked (never really liked bleached wood), but I love the stone/wood contrast.
I always look forward seeing the beautiful craftsmanship.
The no regard for cost got me at the bluestone vegetable planters 😂
Paulines smile is so contagious ☺️

they need to gift more jobs to women, it's about time we got woke
Can’t wait to see it finished it’s beautiful they put a lot of work into the design
Glad the days of trying to get my job done while everyone else is trying to do the same are over, the stress level goes through the roof for everyone.
yeah orgies are so overrated 🤣😂🤣🤣

The island countertop is beautiful!!
Lovely old job🤗

You are a great team with huge knowledge and experience. I would like to join you if I move to USA.
Also those bluestone planters are going to come apart within a year. Use a little thicker stone and epoxy anchors between the corners.

No Silva brothers??
Charlie Silva had a segment at around 17:00 with Kevin.
7:35 The director for "Breaking Bad" set up this shot 😂

I hope that was staged for television. The shot of all the finish trades working on top of each other looks like a nightmare.
Master bath is bigger than my master.

They were still installing it when he did the outro, so I'd have to think they put the caulking in afterwards.
The mbath wall finish isn’t worth the money 😢

Yikes! Tattoo riddles.
holy methpipe batman!
That island is hideous. And the oak lip over the stone makes it look like some homeowner's DIY project.
Whenever you let the homeowner choose, it's always a hot mess.
Another reason why renovations never get their full costs back after sale.

completely useless island , you homeowners have more money than sense, yuck
To the designer that actually allowed these homeowners to pick those exterior colors, look for a new job! House looks ridiculous with those colors.
The designer works for the homeowners, not you. Their client was pleased I'm sure.
Imagine spending that kind of money for bluestone raised beds lol
