My name is David. I have an engineering degree in mechanics. I began remodeling homes, renting, and selling five years ago for extra income. My dream is to retire from my JOB and rehabilitate homes that are lower end priced for those who want to buy a modest home in a nice neighborhood. I don't prefer to rehabilitate high end homes.
This is weird, my cabs are the exact same color exact same handles, and I've chosen to use tiles exactly that shape and size, using the same exact grout type and color. I intend to use 1/4" thick Hardie backer boards though many vids depict just tiling directly on top of dry wall or plaster. All of this was decided without any conscious decision to copy or follow this video, though I did watch it many months earlier. I didn't buy tile yet but have one sample of gray and have thought about using a mix of colors like you did. Hey, what month were you born? :)
Hello Cherry and David! I’m loving this. My address is… lol. I’m for real going to take some of your ideas though. My home is 23 years old now. And stuff is happening. Y’all are awesome and I hope you’re both doing well.
I really enjoy seeing Dave’s work! He has such patience and very detailed. He is definitely a jack of all trades! He knows so much about ever aspect of construction. You have a sweet voice asking the right questions and explains what he is doing. And the grandkids are a wonderful addition to your videos!
When viewing BEFORE...what were the makers thinking ? The bathroom wall paper and flooring hmm...but add to that @ 1:04 Nothing like a mirror and 2 windows to feel luxury in the tub pushed in the corner and make your neighbors wish they were there...oh, wait they are there. Right there with you and a mirror to see every side of you.
inironsatsea Yeah, tried to remember the before pictures I took and go back and take an after from same direction. I do it all on my phone, which is a challenge sometimes.
@@davidpikett7697 I did sound like a critic. No offense meant. It would be cool to see you with the saw-zall cutting out the old wood and putting it back together. I was in the mobile home business for years. My house now is two single-wides I bumped together and put a roof on. Should have had youtube during that. Take care and be well!
Our son was learning to run the Bobcat. It was fun to operate it. We wanted to save money by not paying someone else to do it. Our son was able to accomplish the job we wanted to do.
@@davidpikett7697 Appologies.... that is how you learn. It just scares me when I see equipment operated because I know how dangerous it can be and deadly. Again I appologize
David Pikett No reinforcement was required. While it is true that the tile floor is heavier than vinyl or laminate the 2x8 floor joists spaces 16” on center are plenty strong enough. The way the support beams are located underneath the clear span is only 8 ft.
The walls in living room Softer Tan Sherwin Williams. The kitchen we mixed gray and blue to get the grayish blue. David and our son save paint from other jobs to use again.lol 😊
