Here we are getting started on the restoration of another of our Historic Victorian homes! This time, it's the darling cottage in Natchez, Mississippi that we have lovingly named Pearl. She's the only one of our ladies that will be for sale when she's complete, so we'll be getting her done and on the market asap...but there are still just two of us doing all the work, so it still won't be soon.
This episode walks you through our beginning stages. Watch and learn as we show you why you NEVER need to replace your historic windows and walk you through their repair. Then, we'll teach you why plaster walls are so important to your health and the health of your historic home, and how to repair rather than replace them.
We also share our tips on our favorite and safest brand of paint stripper, that encapsulates lead paint and leaves your wood surfaces ready to receive stain or paint.
This is a great video for those of you who want to DIY it, but aren't quite ready to crawl under the house and start working on foundation repair just quite yet. The projects we show you here are 'must know' for every old home owner or future owner, and will equip you to feel confident in taking these projects on yourself.
And, it wouldn't be one of our videos if we didn't find a treasure and show you some dogs! Join us as we get started!
