so we have a giant hole in the floor at the renovation project and that's okay you know
the reason we have it is a good one we had a fireplace there we took the fireplace out
and we kind of left that problem until later because we had a lot of stuff to focus on on
the outside now that the outside is ready for painting we've got this hole in the floor to fix
it's got brown here so the hole in the floor the concrete fireplace was there we took it out
we didn't know quite how far the concrete base went down
so richard and paido started breaking that out
you know you don't get such a good idea of space so i thought this was wider so i thought maybe
this was like filled with something but obviously just a big letter h or letter i
depending on which way you look at it basically it wasn't as bad as we thought it might be
the concrete base was only the top 200 or so mil and then below that was just like an h
frame of concrete so the guys were able to frame it frame the timber floor used to be trimming here
why does this floor matter well the main reason is because we've repositioned all
these rooms it went from two bedrooms to what is now three bedrooms and in order to pull that off
we had to relocate the walls one of the new walls lands right on this hole in the floor so now that
they've framed that in they can put enough of the native flooring down to build the wall
bye
oh so the floor's done the wall was built on top of that floor and now we can do the
ceiling this ceiling isn't like a bulk standard ceiling we're not just framing something flat
we're making what's called a coffin ceiling let's get the materials and we'll talk more about that
good job muhammad good job good job
so that stuff on my roof is laminated veneer
lumber and i get questions about this stuff all the time because
when we're trying to do straight walls a lot of people from overseas are like why don't you just
use a laminated veneer lumber it's not as easy to come by here in new zealand and it's definitely
a lot more per meter and we usually only use it when people spec it like an architect or something
but in this case i need something that matches the existing ceiling framing
so uh second unit second unit potter what are we doing today we're going to take these props out
supporting this uh ceiling after we obviously re-support it that's our plan of attack what
do you reckon [ __ ] got enough skills for that it's the big team we don't need to go any more bro
pressure's on bro oh what do you reckon you reckon i go non uh no square um
i'll wing it no not these ones get these ones snug thanks for your food and confidence
buddy
and we're still good at it good there bro it's pretty much gonna it's not moving now
freestyler that's a good song man you can hold that camera catch it at the same time
good catch thank you
what's going on here
oh that's the stand yeah so luckily richard is uh my wife is on call richard is saving the day today
we've got no power yeah did i tell you my rate's gone up yeah triple is that trouble hey capitalism
come on mate yeah either you've got me here with my tools or i'm going home okay all right
so because the power is out on the street
eldritch here is uh richard has saved the day with the milwaukee gear i don't actually have cordless
drop saws or table saws but rich has both all right saeed
saeed is the painter plasterer he's been on a couple episodes before thank you um so yeah
we're on fully cordless today and this is what was on my roof and there's the beams so those
beams are made to match the existing ones that uh the boys put up look how weird is the baby
a little baby saw i want to get one eh they're cool now when we hand out our weatherboards in
we leave the nail proud and that is so before it gets painted if it rains
rain doesn't go water doesn't go into the head of that nail and
get into the timber so as happy as i am to seaside it means we have to punch all the nails in now
we got the right man for the job here so far no power not too bad how's the big camera going
there todd speed cam is going good mate yeah no i'll cut to the b camera i gave todd the b camera
it's putting those windows in remember when i broke my camera well this is our broken camera
turned out i could clip it all back into place and it works fine so we're giving camera b to todd
that is a good sound that is a good sound
so that's the rubber seals though oh foam foam seals with vinyl wraps this looks a bit neater
than the old um you know that black brush oh the stick on sir and that's cool
oh yeah and then you gotta seal through the center oh through there nice man so she's sealed up mate
you can hear the difference of noise
doors opening over there but it does it's good so there you go double glazed timber windows
good job don you just gonna do it on every window in the house yeah never five more that's sweet you
need some doors nice job todd that's that done double glaze this is the exciting moment where
i do the box corner trying to stay ahead of the painter here probably can't hear
me at all because of those power guys but i've plumbed two pencil lines down the weather boards
and then um i'm using that as like a reference point and then i chuck these then i chuck these
wedges behind the facing as i nail it that's how i keep it plumb both this side and the side
we're we're in each other's bubble oh got that and not even close too it's like way down
i'll put that at the end of the video
