I'm not a structural engineer. I'm not a contractor. I have no idea what the building codes say about that kind of room. But even I can tell that it's not safe, and that whoever built it did not know what they were doing and/or hired the cheapest workers possible. And that scares me, because if people are getting away with building that sort of thing in _Canada,_ what horrors do we have down here in the US?

No joke my parents second to last house. we wanted to redo the porch roof because that was bad. turned out the entire porch was supported by one 2 by 4. and we lived their for nearly a decade.

@skat5268 11 месяцев назад

I think they said they tied in to internal structure for lateral support, hopefully not just that old brick wall. Like the look of brick but that mortar does decay and I don't see any lateral strength in it, particularly when it comes to earthquakes. I don't think many insurance companies will deal with brick homes? I do think they're full of baloney on their cedar claims though. It's a great look but as someone who grew up in a home with cedar decks and all cedar siding, I can attest that it's a pain in the ass. Sunlight in particular will strip those natural oils in one summer. I spent many summers as a kid in blistering heat re-staining cedar. And if it isn't the elements ruining the cedar, bugs will attack it like crazy too. There was a period also when cedar shakes were all the craze and those were awful as well.

Linseed oil on the wood shingles will allow it to last much longer and keep the seasoning to grey to be held back for many more years. Keeping the beautiful rich brown color.... I have seen roofs and siding last 40-50 years with linseed oil every few years.. You don't want to stain or paint wood shingles as they need to breath. They should also be installed on lath strips. To help with the breathing of the shingles. Wood shings soak water up like a sponge. Unlike a sponge they keep the water and swell to keep water from dripping through. This is why lath as it created airflow to dry shingles after a good rain. Allowing the shingles to last....

@wilfredbruce5327 5 месяцев назад

Mike Holmes made it a point to state that, yes it should of been torn down, but he said it was a possibility of salvaging and engineers were consulted to effect a safe and sound structure. The cost of tearing down and rebuilding new would be extremely costly that the two young people couldn't afford. Essentially, the structure was reengineered and restructured in situ and appropriate safety was considered. In a perfect world, Mike Holmes wouldn't have had a show if every place had to be torn down to be rebuilt.

@josephrobichaud5198 11 месяцев назад

It breaks my heart when I see new homeowners get taken advantage of like this even when they took all the right steps. I just watched one on RU-vid where it was a new construction, it passed every city inspection, once they passed the COO they moved in and things started falling apart. Bucked floors, sagging ceilings and dozens of other items! They hired there own engineer, had the head city inspector come in and inspect it. They had a two page list of things wrong. The city refused to claim any responability, the builder will not take there calls. Having worked in the trades off and on for over 50 years and having owned a company that worked on nothing but 100 plus year old houses most often I can just walk around the outside and inside and find dozens of things wrong that the "inspector" never mentioned that were in plain sight.

Watching these videos. Brings a question to mind. When home inspectors do such a terrible job? Miss such obvious damage or potentially harmful situations? Can the home inspector be sued? Would they be liable for repairs? And why are they not mentioned by name? So potential home buyers know not to hire.

@Sam_2704 7 месяцев назад

I've only just found your channel and I love it, I could watch renovations/repairs all day. It is very similar to our UK version, DIY SOS. Our building regs are very different to yours, our houses are mainly brick, with cavity insulation and roof tiles. My question is, do you ever go find the dodgy housing inspectors? Is there any come back on them? They are clearly putting lives at risk.

@LogicalNiko 5 месяцев назад

Damon was right, it would have been faster, cheaper, and less work to drop the entire addition and start from scratch. As much as Mike wanted to limit environmental impact by throwing away the material, I suspect in net output it was less environmentally friendly to spend all the extra work, resources, time (which equaled gas, electricity, etc. to keep parts of it). And if they wanted to they could have stripped the old growth framing lumber from the structure and recycled it into a less structural project.

The air that blows throughout the house is from inside the house itself. Interesting hearing about the electrical reason.
