Jeff, I know you get more clicks and money with titles like this and I am cool with that when they first go live but after a month or two could you change it to a more descriptive title so it's easier for people to find later on? I watch nearly every video and I noticed it can be really hard to find a particular video months later.
Love the channel! As a first-time home buyer, you have saved me thousands and given me the confidence to try new projects.
We've done water heater, washer, dryer, dishwasher, basement sink and up flow station, sump pit and pump, replumbed the entire house from the meter, refinished wood floors, textured the ceiling, taken out walls, replaced most of the electric, lighting and fans, and so much more. You are the best!
Should be "I refinished my Kitchen for $500"
@@matel9477 Idk about that. It's part of a series so the name of the task being completed and part 1/part 2/etc would be helpful as well as a playlist (I think he does this already).
@@Triflixfilms Oh that makes more sense. I didn't realize it was part of a series.
Make a playlist with a home improvement title. You can even have multiple. Kitchen, bathroom, basement, etc. I just started utilizing this after like 15 years being a UA-cam student lol.
Yeah I agree. It’s not Jeff though, he doesn’t deal with all the computers.
Whoever does his social media should know that stuff isn’t necessary. He has quality content and doesn’t sell anything but himself, it will get shared naturally.
Shouldn't you had fixed the rotted floor before putting in the cabinet? That moisture gonna soak through the pressed board.
I thought the same thing from the beginning. Painting before everything is solid and fixed seems like a waste of time. Not the best video I've seen from Jeff. The title says "...my kitchen..." if this is really his place, it's not impressive. It's possible that the $8,000 was justified after all.
He recently put it up for sale
I always appreciate the content. I was never taught anything about building, renovating, etc., but I have been able to do so much for my own family and home because of your stuff. Thanks.
The more you dig, the more you find 😂❤ love you Jeff you're so talented, generous and humorous ❤❤❤
I love how real life your videos are. You don't leave out the mistakes or the issues that pop up when doing remodels. Makes me feel better when I do my projects, things always seem to happen and get in the way.
LOL Yes I agree. How many of us have drilled, cut etc with smoke coming from our dull blade. LOL
That sage green color has really grown on me!
Is it me or does Jeff seem more jaded than he used to be a couple years ago? He’s got such incredible problem solving abilities in this environment but he seems burnt out…
Happens to be best of us
I've noticed it as well.
I think a lot of it is from working on and with a mobile home.
They look nice enough (sometimes) for the money, but once you get into the "bones," it can really start to drive you crazy.
I am going to tackle my kitchens and watching your videos are giving me some confidence to just do it.
If this is the same manufactured home (from the bathroom videos). One. In the bathroom, what about the ceilings? You never showed how to deal with that ceiling. Two. In the Kitchen video. Are those NEW doors? Or did you just paint the old ones? And, you mention, having to redo the sub-floor in the entire unit. I have a 1970 manufactured home, I am purchasing, and am pretty sure, I have to replace or upgrade the floor joists and replace the sub-floor. I would really like to see tips and examples of some of that. If possible. thanks.

Glad you are doing this kitchen remodel series. I was planning on doing the exact same thing to my kitchen this supper. Any thoughts on using rustoleam appliance enamel paint to freshen up countertops ?
Perfect timing! Just the other day I was looking under my kitchen sink thinking it's way past time to repair the mess. Of course mine won't be 'Perfect every time' 😅 but at least it'll be way better than it is now!! Thank you for the video, Jeff!
Put a pullout drawer with a metal lining in it in case it leaks. Easier access to stuff. I had to take out my garbage disposal trap after a clog and water goes everywhere
@@nationsnumber1chump Yes, I know what you mean. Great idea. Thank You!
Just got a quote for 60k to remodel a 10 x12 kitchen. Im going to diy most but hire plumbers and electricians as i dont feel comfortable doing those things. Im nervous but my hubby and I are retired so we have time to dedicate to the project.
I feel like Jeff made these "mistakes" on purpose for our entertainment because I've been watching his channel long enough to know his perfectionism on his work would not allow these mistakes on a job. Thank you Jeff! 😂😂😂😂😅
never miss a great opportunity to teach. Cheers!
17:17 That's what she said😂
😂 I said the same thing
@@jessicachiaramonte7435 me too!! LOL
20:13: That’s not what she said.
Jeff I say this out of concern not judgment, but please please wear respirators. My grandfather did your line of work his whole life and thought masks and such were silly. He’s now slowly dying a miserable death from lung disease. It’s horrific watching him go through this. Once vibrant, the type of guy that retired multiple times because he just couldn’t be idle, he now wastes away while his lungs turn to trash. It will catch up with you. All the best to you!
I was thinking the same exactly when he sprayed the OIL based paint. But you put it much better.
Jeff does not do safety. I believe on being as safe as possible, but he’s like safety is for losers….
When I see him using protective gear, I will not even try it. It has to be too dangerous.
the tabs over the wheels in the kitchen draws get flipped up so you can pull out the draw.
your pain! I feel your pain.......People are not used to thinking for themselves Jeff. Another great video. Cheers
Thank you for doing gods work!
Is that color Evergreen Fog from SW? We just used that on ours in Emerald Urethane Semi Gloss. We rolled ours and turned out great...
First time I think I’ve ever seen Jeff wearing a tool belt.
Well, your videos seem to be following or in sync with everything I need to do in my kitchen 😂. I need to rebuild my sink cabinet. Most of the horrible 80's grouted countertop is falling off around the sink. The bottom is falling in. There are no studs in this Condo, except where plumbing is. I have my plan for the bottom, plank flooring left over from 20 yrs. ago. Since there are no pipes that I have to cut around, the bottom will be easy. But, building the whole cabinet to incorporate a 31 in workstation sink is where I get stuck. All my plumbing needs to be overhauled & I can't do it. I still need to clean out & fix the upper cabinet. I have no space to set up a workspace & being a caregiver for someone else has overwhelmed me. But, your videos give me a glimmer of hope. I just hope I can get 1 thing done before it all falls apart. I appreciate all your videos. TYSM
They don't "burn through", they "surface treat against bugs and water".
It's a value adding process, which takes more labor and obviously commands a higher price.
Hey Jeff. I hope all is well!
Less is more when spraying cabinets Jeff. Try using a 413 or a 411 tip.
I am confused. The original cabinet insets (?) are scalloped on the lower part where handle is. On the finished cabinets the scalloped inset is not there. ?????????????
Kitchen looks fabulous.
Didn’t know Killz bonds to silicone! 🤯
Could have saved me a serious headache!
I painted my kitchen white for my flip and yeah it definitely shows imperfections. Thank God for caulk lol
That's what she said 🤭
I have a front porch that I have painted with the porch paint but it still comes off.
I want to repaint it I have pressure washed it can I use the kilz primer on it before I put the porch paint back on?
I almost always use kilz, it covers stains and makes paint adhere better. I think they sell one for exterior. I know they sell paint with primer already in it. Don't know how it works on exteriors though.
I would invest in knee pads off of Amazon. My dad hates crouching when working around the house too he’s old hahaha
Jeff, How do I get a one on one question answered? We’ve been remodeling the same house (5k sq ft slaughterhouse in FL-not kidding) 20 years and I’m at the point of needing to demo and remodel our bathrooms,but it’s a real dilemma. It’s going to take creativity and I know it’s something you could help me figure out. , I have requested contractor help but I live in Hurricane Michael area and haven’t been able to get help or at least not affordably…. 😩
DIY uninitiated - I hate that I have to pay pros so much to do this.
DIY novice - I will give it a shot.
DIY pro - I will pay a professional literally anything to do this instead of me.
The pigment is to see where you applied the paint Doesn't serve any other purpose that I know of
Great video but personally I would have fixed floor first before doing anything else
8000 for that is super cheap. 4,000 in permits demo floor and dust containment dumpster and ports potty alone….
Contractors here would charge $15k+ for what you did
That's why I learn to do this by myself... 💯
@stormeegarvin7190 Your kitchen was in the same condition as this one?
By contractors you mean him? 😂
No... contractors would remove the crap and do it right. Jeff didn't use to be a slum lord
@@robertapreston4200 I totally agree, he did a slum lord job on this kitchen.
Gosh darn Chicago electric miter saw for the win. Mercia
It looks like an Old Kitchen that has been cleaned up a little 🤷♂️.
The floor problems were not addressed and you lost half of the sink cabinet floor.
Good job on the painting despite doing half the prep.
The drawer repair upgrades were needed and the final poduct has good structural integrity.
But to say this is a remodel is a stretch.
Agreed. "Rebuilt"? I was thinking more like putting lipstick on a pig.
Why is there an electrical outlet where the sink cabinet is.. thought that was strange especially near water or am I missing something.. curious 🤔
Probably for garbage disposal or dishwasher
The paint sprayer alone cost 500.
The materials alone costore than 500.
I like him, but he's doing a disservice to contractors by the false narrative he's putting out.
Don't forget to fix the big hole in the floor for the dishwasher, otherwise the dishwasher will turn into an elevator to the ground!!!
It must be one of those houses when nothing goes to plan. Sub floors rotten. Bad plumbing. You end up doing everything twice. The cost of materials is higher than ever.
There is no way you spent just $500 for this? How is that possible? The cabinet door replacements along are $500 for like 4-5 😂 please share your secret!
The secret is to make up numbers
His secret is he doesn't have to pay for the labor...
I was wondering if those were the original cabinet doors or not. They look different .
He's got holes, he's got hoooo-oooles, in different area codes, area codes 😂
Do you have to use oil based paint if you use that primer
Kilz has latex and oil primers.
You can put an oil based paint OR a latex based paint over a shellac based primer like the one Jeff used in the video.
You can also use shellac based primer OVER oil based paint or latex based paint, if you are re-painting (just make sure the old painted surface is CLEAN before using (ANY!) primer, and then scuff it up a bit with some sandpaper - around 200 grit - and you only need to go over the old paint very quickly with the sandpaper, you're just trying to rough up the surface a bit. Jeff didn't need to do this because the paint was still pretty new in the video).
Another consideration is that a shellac based primer is also the stinkiest of all the primers, so it's probably best to use it only for small areas (like a bit of unpaintable silicone on the wall), rather than entire rooms. Although you _could_ use it on an entire room if you really wanted to, if you had LOTS of ventilation in the room (and/or you're maybe even using a respirator of some kind). As well as having LOTS of time for the room to air out and the smell to dissipate before you need to use the room again for anything.
Hope this helps.
@@wolfc8755 good to know
It mean ; to take plenty
I would have gone for 120 grit nothing coarser. 60 is way too coarse for paint.
There’s something about this guy that screams incompetence and I can’t put my finger on it. It’s like he doesn’t have a real natural understanding of things and instead researches a bunch before a video so he SOUNDS competent.
If you feel that way then can I assume we will not see your comments anymore?
I'm assuming this is showing how to fix things on the fly and on an extremely low budget. With that said, love the ingenuity, make it work with less!
The sink sitting there a quarter inch above the counter is certainly a choice. wtf was this video dude?
Why is there a random cut at 10:05?
There is no cut at 10:05. But if you mean at 12:05 , Jeff said he cuts the bulk off so he does not have its weight pulling down on his finished cut edge.
@@bc5001 a cut in the edit
Just the other day Jeff I realized that one of my basement bedrooms doesn't have any outlets but drywall is up and finished with paint. Who the hell does this???
This is lipstick on a frickin pig
How come I grew out of my jeff worshipping yrs ago and many here still need to pray to the toolbelt god?
Good. We grow.
Contractor quoted over $100,000 (comes out to $400/hour). Before the pandemic $40,000. Both for labor only, owner provides all materials, permits etc. That would add another $50,000, about $20,000 before the pandemic. No thanks, cheaper to move to another house.
That definitely looks like a $500 job. $8000 might be worth it. 🥴
👍👍
"Its amazing what that 2 inches does" my wife says that a lot 😂
LOL From watching Jeff's videos I am surprised he did not say ' That's what she said'. I said it just waiting for him to. LOL
Never forget when Jeff had a black eye from the mob.
They love that 8000 figure. Eery person i called gave me an $8000 quote. 8000 for replacing the plumbing, 8000 to rewire, 8000 for tub to shower remode, 8000 to replace windows. one except, 100,000 for kitchen remodel. I found two contractors that would do it for 19k.
THAT'S WHAT MY GIRLFRIEND SAYS THAT 2 INCHES MAKES ALL THE DIFFERENCE.....DAMN.
She did not say what’s said at 20:13….
Bro do we really have to grunt loudly while lowering a one pound board. And the heavy breathing throughout the whole video?
Hmmm...the kitchen will still feel outdated compared to new home kitchen designs and layouts of newer cabinets. Something to think about
Yeah.. Can't argue with cost but it's rare that I don't like the before or the after.
I really do not like that word ' outdated' when describing real estate. I find it is overused. Sometimes things are simply 'classic' . Often people spend thousands of dollars just to get the latest 'fad' .
doing all of this after paint is dumb
OK, but I still hate that kitchen...
Omg lol😢😢
I'm not a contractor. How many hours did you take doing this? How much did all your tools cost? It's not a good comparison. Your time is worth $ and so are your tools. So its not a good comparison of saying you rebuilt it for $500.
His channel isn't for contractors. It's for homeowners looking to do these jobs themselves. No homeowner should count their hours as timecost, since it goes back into value of the home. As a homeowner that gets more and more ridiculous "I don't want to do this small job so I'll quote super high" quotes I need to know the bottom line dollar cost of a methodology.
Absolutely.........
Refitted my large kitchen, plumbing, electrics,, drywall, flooring, tiling etc and it took me around three months. Finished it off with some new doors from B&Q and my wife was delighted.
These cabinets are not worth the time and effort to repaint. Sorry, for a home in 2024 they look terrible even after the janky respray. Get yourself back to IKEA Jeff.
Bro is on one...😢
Please give me job
Marry me.. 🥰
Are there any guys wanting to marry Jeff? cheers
Please give me
They didn’t become a contractor for their health.
😩 This is garbage sice he covered water damaged floors. Homeowners, please dont do this!!!
This video didnt show much except adding a shelf under the sink and a drawer face...where is the remodel? Thumbs down :(
Make your own videos if you're so smart. Jesus, I swear people bitch about everything...
It’s a series of videos showing you how to remodel a kitchen. The video before this was painting this kitchen. This video starts with him talking about what he did last time and what he needs to fix back up first.
@@DeepBoxGames Ok thanks... I didnt see the series only this one came to my inbox, I will go look.
What a joke. Old good enough construction is more like it. Less effort the better for this guy.
i'm starting to dislike these videos to a point you don't realise ...if you want to teach people to be self reliant and manualy and technically competent FINE ....but ragging on contractors for asking what they consider their just retribution for their work is starting tro sound like sabotage and seeding jelousy and divisivness . Remember , these people also have families to feed and dependent work force , and there's strength and far more reaching capacities when people get together and pull out resources instead of working alone by themselves . That's how societies werew built in the first place and are maintain till today . There's nothing wrong being a free lancer and individualistic , but ragging on your neighbor for charging what they do , it's none of your busyness , you don't know what HE/SHE does , why HE/SHE does and the excuse for doing so . Quit this behaviour , it's very unbecoming and shamefull .
It’s a grift to get people reliant on his videos. He’s not an honest person.
@@par32 sadly i've become to the point where i'm almost inclined to agree with you . I don't agree 100% because i don't really know him , only what he puts out on YT , and sadly lately most of his videos are about ragging on other people's work . he relies on the logic i'm perceived as a good and competent person because people trust LOOKS and they tend to trust people who give them FREE ADVICE AND TEACH some tricks . , the down side is the seeding of mistrust of every one who doesn't give anything for free , it's a form of socialism , if it's free then those who provide it are GOOD PEOPLE , if someone charges you then he/she/they " are mercenaries , rapacious , ultraneoliberal disgusting capitalists " . Thank you for the feed back .
These videos are for people that 1. cannot afford expensive contractors 2, Enjoy doing their own repairs when they can. I see you really like the pronouns.
@@bc5001 pronouns ? elaborate please ...like the lefties do ?
Aren’t you a contractor as well? This is clickbait.
If anyone watching this video thinks that the "$8,000 bid" that he "got" for doing what HE'S doing in this video is what the contractor was going to do, you're wrong. If you paid someone $8,000 to come in and put make up on a pig, I'm sorry, but most real contractors wouldn't even touch something like this unless it entailed gutting the kitchen and installing a new one.
Then he puts a torpedo level on a 30"+ cabinet. Hilarious. Please by all means, do not think that what Jeff is doing is an apples to apples comparison of what a contractor would do for $8,000. Jeez, it's like everyone thinks they can do work as good or as quick as a contractor. I can do my businesses books, but why would I? I'm not a professional. It isn't a productive use of time and it probably wouldn't be right. You can probably remodel your kitchen, but it'll probably be shit because you're not a professional.
If it's all you can afford, by all means follow this advice, but don't think you're getting the same product. It is an affront to real craftsmen that you think you can do it as good as they can when they've spend decades learning their trade.
I don't think he implied that, he's saying the cheapest quote was 8k for new cabinets installed and probably the same butcher block top, but they wouldn't be very high quality and he might not have been able to get the color he chose for that price too. I don't see how he did it for 500 in material though, 1k seems more realistic.
Can you come over and redo mine for $500?
Yeah, for materials.. labor is a different story. But Jeff is giving you the understanding on how things are done.
