Warren lll is a channel about the Construction world and how to information on the job site. I am also wanting to share new carpentry information and building styles. new construction and remodeling are some of the main content in my youtube videos.
I am a contractor working in Chicago Land, and I have a similar project on the books. Can I ask how much you charged, how many guys did it take to handle, and how long did it take you?
I know this is an old video, but I'm asking anyway. What kind of contractor/tradesman does this type of work? Most of my issue is just in trying to figure out who to call. TIA!
You mentioned there isn’t a header. How did this pass inspection? Answer is obvious there wasn’t a permit so no inspection. The home owner should have stopped your work and made them install a header
This is one of those things that you have to be doing it to figure it out while watching you. The angles are tough to understand unless you're doing it. Great video!!! Can't wait to try this.
Good idea. I bought a Chinese knockoff of the latest Smart Square with Smart Bubble, folding edge, and adjustable bar for $27. I might add a Martinez bar later.
I would've had the original windows restored, because the new windows will probably only last 30 years max vs an old restored window with new storms will last another 100 years and will be cheaper. Other than that, I call those pocket replacement windows, personally I believe that if you're going to spend the money and get windows replaced, you're better off spending a little extra to do full frame replacement, to make it more airtight and to have an inspection of the rough opening.
@Warren3carpentry It's definitely an upgrade, I always get the casements confused besides the Andersen, because the cladding looks the same as the non Pella Pro Line Windows. It seems like Crestline is becoming evanescent, you don't see them as often as you used to.
I'm building a 30x50x14' I'm noticing wall wobble at the 20 foot point away from my end walls. 2x6 construction, 7/16 osb. Did you you anything to prevent wobble? I didn't see any special bracing in any of your videos.
All good other than running your knife off the end of your coil and into the aluminum hinge. I score three times from left to right and three times right to left never going off the end of the metal!
@@jeffsr0308I’ve had my old van mark for over 25 years and have cut my metal the same way. Is my hinge all scored to rat shit….yup sure is. Does it affect anything…..nope. Probably go another 25 years doing it the same way. I however won’t be around that long……just sayin
@@garysullivan8203it’s yours, treat it how you want. Just something I thought of one day after scoring the shit out of my hinge for years and not liking it. Best wishes!
@@jeffsr0308 couldn’t agree more Jeff. My old brake was used when I got it. I wasn’t being critical. Just giving my own personal perspective. Have a good one
You didn't show what you did behind the first deck board below the visible flashing. I hate trying to flash T1-11. What i've done in that situation is put in some roof to wall on top of the ledger. Then the deck board with the drip edge flashing like you've done it with the t1-11 over the top. I've also just installed lap siding over the t1-11 and turn it into regular sheeting.
Congratulations Warren! I know how hard it is to get to 1k. I just surpassed 1,000 subscribers yesterday, after trying for 17 months. RU-vid is tough. You earned it!
SUPER !! I just got my first lesson on wrapping wood. Thanks for the help you are a good teach offering great tips for a good finish.. Thanks so much for lesson.. Good Luck. Jose R Garcia
Alright I really wanna know why y’all cap windows like this. I’ve never seen this until I started driving to PA. I noticed going through some of Tennessee, Virginia, Maryland, and PA that windows are capped. In Texas where I’m from and work on windows replacing them for multiple companies we just install to brick and caulk it. Siding I don’t see capping whatsoever.
@@Warren3carpentry thank you for the response, see I’m not sure. I tried working in PA and the way we install down here in Texas did not transpose well there. I just always wondered where the divide was and my ego was bruised cause I install good here but I couldn’t even do installations in PA without using a break which I had never seen nor practiced with.
Can you explain how the finishing nails and not having the top fastened to the wall instead of the brick mold will keep any water out from behind the siding other the caulking the crap out if it?
HI, thanks for the video; super helpful! Apologies for the rookie question but is it ever possible to avoid using nails? Could some OSI or other exterior adhesive be applied to the backside to glue the pieces into place or will that not be a long-term reliable result?
