How To Go Over Budget On A House Remodel!!

what's better to do on a Sunday afternoon than put railing up at the lake it's going great there's only a few mixes mixes uppers mixer uppers mistakes but the they won't know you'll never know how could they know well why would you tell them nobody will ever know measured twice drill once kids nobody will ever know [Music] [Music] now we've got the uh the book out that and only finally only dad worked all afternoon yesterday on two posts and now we got the instructions out oh no I got him on the floor that's why it took me so long here I'll I'll do my job [Music] there you checked the level on that one it's perfect I know hey I know so have you shown them all the progress here no but I've been telling them that I would give them a tour but I have not been able to do that yet and tomorrow the guy is coming to put the rest of the soffiting underneath that I originally did not think I needed but after the robins and the what are those things called Amy not a barn swallow buddy Bridge swallow tree swallow never knew there was something like it but boy they sure moved in this spring and never left so it you gonna go down there and chill I'll show them the new step that was an add-on oh yeah there's always the upgrade so come along Amy in all three we put the put the home up which was a prefab home because I knew that from the stories of other people that I've always stick built that it's never a good thing so pre-built One Price no changes but we're making up for those changes now with the deck because there's been some over budgeting what uh what are the other fancy words called just continued additions in and additions editions and uh better ways different ways upgrades the upgrade so yeah that step up there that was not well there was going to be a Stairway but we slid pipes into those tubular holes in the precast concrete oh five and a half inch big quarter inch thick 10 foot long eight foot long tubes and then they were able to cement that out oh show them there's some exposed yet some holes there I mean yeah so basically they're just made a knockout so that we can get up on the deck from there obviously it still isn't finished here but uh of course you know Doug Larson has to have lights under the deck my mom yeah I was thrilled about more upgrades so yeah we had to do the we had to do the softening because over there is the the exposed concrete which I thought was going to be good enough maybe paint it or something but uh uh yeah it had to be covered up so now we're covering it soffit do you know how much expense how expensive softening is anyway that's that and he'll be back tomorrow to do some more well not to complain but uh it is coming along very nicely we got a a bar here and get shown ceramic Grill ceramic just sounds fancy it's not it's just a gas grill much better Grill than I had which is actually still store word in the storage shed in case your father wants to fix it yeah uh under cabinet storage sink we do have an ice maker that has been taken in for winter probably Winter's coming a whole nother now we've been on this project two years and a month and we ain't gonna get her done this year what well there's another oh you think we'll get that oh then they got the grass that looks like there's been some sort of War games played out here oh the bats yeah that was another reason that we had to do the softening uh it'd be easier to show them that over underneath the step but up against the house the Precast cement stuck away about an inch and a half well yeah they found that spot and they made that home for about a week until they came back and finished off The Rock there is a couple more holes over there I'm gonna get the big old Sakrete stuff bag and pretend I'm decorating the cake and Squid squeeze some mud in them spots so you're doing ceiling fans under here another upgrade I don't know if Mom survives this she so does anybody know if there's a better quality I'm sure there's I know there's better quality but I think I'll start out with the hundred dollar ceiling fan see how long they last winter that should tear them right off morphics are fixing right so those of you guys that have uh been around the channel a long time you've seen what two years ago two and a half we brought the excavator in they had nice big field rock uh decoration it was my flower gardens there we ripped that all out never had a deck for 17 years of the house being here so when the siding was shot windows were shot in 17 years actually didn't even make it that long but they push we keep kicking the can down the road we kicked the can down the road so we could do new construction Windows Anderson and bought the expensive one so that we could have the good warranty long sad story on that but uh anybody want to know they just contact me personally I'll tell you and uh then the windows got put in siding got started or the stone got started but because of covid something about the Precast cement can a lever it got pushed way back and so it didn't get finished the rock didn't get finished now it's The Rock's done the house is done now we're just kind of working on the deck here and it's coming along nice we're doing the railing today the railing today and that ain't gonna get finished because there's a big parade we gotta go watch yeah and then these pillars the support pillars we were going to Stone them but I that's very expensive so yeah it's ridiculous that's not going to happen so one other idea black spray paint laughs yes Rust-Oleum yeah and concrete should work what what is that what's my options there's got to be somebody out there that knows what are my options for the pillars there so this is just kind of an update video of what got started two years ago you watched us do a lot of the dirt work re-landscape this whole area here which is nice only or nice landscape it just needs you know something like grass maybe or sod or about that something other than weeds and rocks and certain chunks you need to come here and demonstrate the fire pit so if you follow on Instagram um or Facebook you've probably seen when he burned his eyebrows off his eyelashes and his hair how did that happen well I've the guy was here to hook it up that installed it and I don't know anything about these things and he was standing here so this is hooked up to the thousand gallon LP tank so she's got some major power so be warned anybody that puts one of these in they will they have the potential to change your life maybe in a bad way so do not stand With the Wind coming towards you because all of the lp is doing what it does vaporizing going into the air and when you ignite that thing so I'm down here by the gas valve which is kind of jerky hard to turn and when that Lit the ball of flame come right over me uh you'd have had to see it to believe it I heard there was some yelling and shrieking and running yeah I had to see it to believe it is she bringing that lighter yeah we got to demonstrate this thing I got bad news for you the fancy three foot long lighter is missing so uh you're down to getting close and personal with it again why would that it's gone it's gone Direction the wind is from I think it's coming off the water it's coming off the water so I should be okay hmm you're gonna turn it up real hot to demonstrate how this happened well I could maybe show them how it did happen because nobody knew so listen closely that's the first sign we learned if you hear loud hissing that's too high so oh there's water in there now okay [Applause] it's not even funny you can about imagine as that went over his head because it was a breezy day that day so the Flames stayed low it was you'd have had to see it to believe it but uh yeah the if you hear hessing be careful first ignite ignition for those that want to put one in just look out should we go Full Throttle yeah will be out of propane by tonight this is I really don't understand the purpose of it needing to be so powerful it's so loud you couldn't even sit and have a conversation maybe you had it at Full Tilt we can maybe melt the snow this winter all right good idea all right we gotta go to local towns parade and spectate so we did get all the West posts on actually so what we're dealing with here is we got extremely rough stamped concrete so it seemed like every post we put down literally had to be in the steeped most uneven parts we had to put washers in underneath the base and very time consuming but overall looking down it they are very straight the problem that I see is so this has a what a cantilever camber so it actually is a bow in the deck and so if you stand here and look down the posts in the center are higher than the ones on the outside but that's just what it is unless you want to get fussy and really get a laser and then cut off all the posts [Music] because the holes are already drilled for the cables it is horizontal so now the horizontal cable for us that have that disease called what is it OCD whatever that's going to be tough on me it'll be fine it'll be fine I gotta get going so uh I don't know if you're going to continue this more afternoon otherwise we'll see you back at the farm the big parade too oh we'll come back afterwards well guys I hope you enjoyed this video a little different but Dad wanted to update you guys on uh everything that's been going on at his house and we ended up spending the rest of the day uh helping a landlord clean up some Bend foundations we'll see in the next video thanks for watching we really appreciate it [Music]
