What a fantastic video this week Marcus!! I loved watching how all the sub flooring came together, the spreading of the insulation, the hiding of the newspaper and your note...what a great idea! Wonder how long into the future before they will be discovered. And I also love the view of the trees from above. Like looking at fractals.
A big job done! No doubt it will make a huge difference in the comfort of the room. The average visitors will have no idea how much work and material it takes to do those improvememts in an old home like this. Kudos to your team.
After all that digging and removing heavy rocks this work must feel like a vacation. Coming along and i'm eager to see the final results. God Bless you.
Love to watch generations working together for tomorrow. The personal touches such as signing the board and the letter adds to the story of the house. Thank you
Great progress. I love the messages to future renovators. I renovated a kitchen and found a wonderful and humorous note in the wall from a previous owner, so I added to that note and put it back.!
Marcus, this was so much fun to watch and how beautiful is the Swedish winter?! Especially at the end with the sunset. I had to laugh (we) when you and your dad cracked a smile after trying to put the insulation into the barrel 😄 We just smiled through the entire video! From Phoenix with love 🏜️❤❤
Dunno how warm this floor is going to be and how long it lasts, but one's for sure - mice will love it .. heck, they nest even in rockwool once they've got a chance to get in 😂
What an achievement, the hard-work will all be worth it! Great idea to leave some history for the next generations to find! Hopefully you will soon start to feel the benefit of all that insulation and you won’t all be working in such very cold conditions for very much longer! Nice to see family and friends are happy to share the workload with you. It will make the house more like a home knowing they have helped to make a difference and contributed towards the end makeover. Another great video❤
Very interesting how to build an insulated floor! But it looked sooo cold, I had to go and put my warm wool jacket on. I am sitting in my well heated sitting room btw...😂😂😂
Do you not need to worry about the potential for little creatures making their way in from the outside? I imagined that you would have used spray foam for the very bottom of the floor - the rock wall area. Is that not typical?
Wow great job and that will help so much to keep the warmth in. Will the radiator system have to have anti-freeze in for when you are not there and its cold? Just wondering how you battle the low temperatures. Thanks Rob
It must feel so good to be done with this part! I too have a 203 year old house and keeping the mice out is an "always" problem.. you may want to concrete point the stones in foundation under the floors here on out?? They can get in the smallest spaces..
Grattis till 10.000 fans 😀👍🏻 Fyll radiotorsystemet med glykol så att det inte fryser på vintern. Kan även rekommendera sidan ”svenskt trä” där har du massa tips om byggnation i trä.
💕My family in the uk heat there radiators the same way💕To heat the hot water they use a boiler with a gas bottle which is kept in an insulated shed which is for gas bottles only💕
Yes that's the plan. Because the hallway was added later, there's no earth to dig out there but there are plenty of rocks! It'll definitely be the same in the living room.
Hi Marcus, I always follow your videos which I find extremely interesting. I'm renovating my house and I'm trying to understand how to do it well, also because the cost of the material is high, and I'm trying not to make mistakes in my choice. I have an attic that I would like to insulate the floor as you did, and the cellulose you used would be fine for me (also so as not to weigh down the floor which would act as a ceiling for the rooms below). I looked for the product...(I'm writing from Italy) but I see that it is only sold in Sweden. Sin! I will try to contact the I.Cell. company to understand how to do it... Thanks for the very useful advice and good work.
Fint! En fråga, varför hade ni inte en hel bräda under varje bjälke, då hade ni inte behövt såga ut hålen i masoniten utan bara lagt ned den mellan i någorlunda fasta längder?
Tack! Gick åt mindre virke så var egentligen därför. Litade på att pappa hade tagit fram en bra plan så därför körde vi på det. Mer jobb men lite billigare
We call these sheets Finnish cardboard. It's made of recycled wood pulp .. absorbs moisture, so it's definitely not the best material for subflooring, especially since there is no moisture barrier installed.
The insulation is what Leif said. The subfloor is masonite but it's made specifically for subfloors so it's coated with an oil to not absorb any moisture.
There are couple of safety concerns. The use of the table saw with both hands pushing the panel through the blade and using no face mask while putting the insulation in the floor 😳
Vet inte vad som skrevs i lappen, men misstänker att du kommer gömma fler brev eller liknande, du borde hänvisa till kanalen här. förhoppningsvis finns den kvar i "molnet" för framtida generationer
