I have come back to watch these old videos many times…it will be 2024 in about three weeks and Nikki is so missed. Rest easy, beautiful.

Chet,6/14/2021, just watched, three times, Nicole taking the sheetrock off that wall & I laughed & cried. Watched at least 10 of your videos today & prayed for you & your family.

Y’all are great together. Nicole you work hard. Chet is a lucky man.

Like the vlog. You know it is easier to punch the second wall out from behind when it is open on one side. I can’t believe that there were no bathrooms on the second floor. I’m with you Nicole, you need the bathroom on the second flood. Especially if you plan to live there as you grow older. Those nighttime trips to the bathroom get more frequent, and the stars get higher and higher!

Watching you two is like watching Chet and his dad on the farm just you are Chet and he is his dad. Hustle hustle go go go! NO! Slow and steady. 😂

@4:10 one possible reason for those sheets of wood nailed between the studs?: I have done similar to make hanging heavy things like shelves, pictures, TVs etc easier. No more looking for studs. Plus you can hang things wherever you want and not be dependent on only hanging stuff where the studs were. I have also done it in bathrooms and makes hanging towel bars and shelving a breeze.

Wow this was crazy! I am so happy you kids didn't fall through the floor you were cutting out beneath yourselves. Those wood floors look great. I'm sure you can easily sand/stain them later. Can't wait to see more.

Those pieces between the studs are backed for like mounting cabinets

Nice work you two.

As always you two just jump in and work so great together on any project you choose to take on. Really going to make life a lot better when you have a bathroom upstairs. Looking forward to watching the next episode of this remodeling job. Have a awesome weekend.

Cool you can work together. My wife and I built 2 of our homes from ground up. I use to build homes and do remodeling so it was fun. We did all our own plumbing, electrical and HVAC. she even sided and shingled, I would set her up and away she went. 😎 great job you guys

She is feisty 😂😂😂😂 love it

at 1:08, I like the look on Chet's face when you expressing the way it felt when you were tearing into the sheetrock...lol

You're just too wonderful people I just love watching you

oh Yes... who knew that demo could be this much fun, Indeed, you guys need your own TV show😎… forget farming,Chet, this is your true calling

Making anything square, level or plumb in an old house is a challenge. Today's imperfections will become tomorrow's character.

Tell the truth,cCyet hit your hand with a 2×4 lol great deal of work accomplished 👍

Nice rain days project. Y’all are doing s great job. Chet how come u rip out 3” pieces of rock and Nicole takes out half a sheet at a time?? Just had to gig u. Great video. Waiting for #3 on remodel

Cool video Nicole you do gd job pitting video together nice to see a couple work so gd together 😊

Nicole is like,....."Get out of my way Chet", I have drywall to rip down,.....Bwahaha!!!

Love it. You two are great together and fun to be with.

Great video, it's fun to watch you two work together.

It’s all fun and games till someone gets hurt, You guys work good together. Great videos Thanks stay safe

😂 you 2 on this project can’t wait to see it all come together

Great job on the remodel🇺🇸

Coming along really fast. Keep up the great work,

great show. thanks

It's coming along nicely

Great work

Chat, I would be worried she's having way to much fun. And is loving the aggression lol

Take control Nicole and the puppy will fallow.

You 2 make me smile, thanks

Wow looking nice looks like fun keep up the great vids

You go girl

Hey Chet and Nicole, to square up your top plate, Google the 3,4,5 method. This will help you get it dead square :)

Great demolition job😛

Nicole is so funny 🤣 🤣

Chet better keep her tearing out walls...seems to be some pent up rage in there somewhere 😂 Joking aside good luck on the renovation

Chet, I am sorry you lost this gem

Good job Nikole and Chet ........ you better keep that wife happy Chet 😎

Cherry is the best Dilly Bar flavor!!! Love the motion ocean water bed!!

Great video Nicole

Remodeling can really bring on the strife. Don't see it here you guy's work great togeather.

You 2 Are the cutest couple. Great sense of humor’s!

You guy's did a good job considering, the age of the house and not being professional carpenters .

Nicole when you were taking your frustrations out, you should of choreographed some head banging heavy metal music to it. That would of been freaking funny lol!! Good work BTW!!

enjoyed your progress, I agree with Nicole why did you wait so long. Happy wife Happy life!

You two are such a great couple ❣️.

I love that husband and wife team work

Can’t wait to see it🙃

Tearing out that sheetrock was to much fun to call work

Y’all are having so much fun

Of course Chet laughed at you crushing your hand.

Chet. A little advice, don't ever make that pretty lady so mad she's willing to use physical Force. You may not servive it!🤣 Geometry, use it to square your walls. ( X, Y, Z ) God bless your family.

Might wanna think about exhaust fan if ur putting in a shower with no window in the room. Could be a lot of moisture bin there.

You two work well together. My wife and I would be in divorce court. 40 years of marriage, and we still argue. But we do laugh when we get into an argument. Looking good guys.

Quicker, simpler and neater than patching drywall is just add a second layer to the ceiling or even 1 wall.

I feel bad for you Chet Women come up with the most craziest ideas so good luck

Great job today

nearly a year ago & only I found this video now.....never screw n new non-load bearing wall to a truss...rather create a "slip-joint" for expansion & contraction purpose...but hey......do it the way you like... home is home even if it squeaks

Two comments...Thank you for your cameo, Toby. And 95% of the demo no safety glasses, come on you kids!

Chet has a lot more patience than I do.

the extra boards are for hanging stuff so you don't have to really find the stud :)

I had the same old random placed wide boards in my wall I thought my house was only one that had it 😂

Nicole will tackle anything! Need to teach her to be a tractor operator 👍

Those boards in the wall were future use for cabinets

Nicole you're supposed to growl like Tim the Tool Man when you're demo'ing! Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!...😠😅😂👍

It will be nice having a bathroom upstairs.

On this weeks "Old to Gold Old House" demo day! Lol

Nicole, are you a California Surfer Girl with an ah at the end of some of your words? I thought that went out of style in the '60s, long before you were born LOL Chet is a real demolition expert! And a carpenter too! Nichole is a real Tearer when it comes to sheetrock! And in the end..."Peace out!" I'm lovin' the video, and the remodel!

Chet look busy

Those cross pieces have to do with fire traveling up through the walls

Those boards between the studs are for hanging mirrors or pictures .

Nice shoes

Omg is that a waterbed lol

a 30 minute commercial started playing while i was watching this video, I would like to see Chet make a video un-filtered because i bet Chet says lots of funny things he later edits out for safety reason.

hey guys your doing a great job but what your tearing out was done way after the fifties

Either for cabinets or they were for future bathroom called bathroom blocks for top holder and grab handles

Those panels were put in between the studs to screw into to hang heavy objects on the wall.

Dary queen is the bomb dilly bars rock

Your only doing this once and if you want the lights in a different place just do it. It's a shame that I am not closer to you I have a sheetrock sander you could use. You could sand the tape job in 10 to 15 minutes and no dust. But I have a lot of tools been doing this for almost 50 years

The flat wood would be used for hanging cabinets

Rule of 3’ 4’ 5’ for square you measure 3’ along existing wall from inside corner of new plate then measure from same inside corner along new plate 4’ then measure at angle from those two points if it’s 5’ it’s square.

Green board is used behind the shower and tub

You guy's saving money by doing most of the work your self I hope you got a plan on paper and a list of things like what kind sink,toilet, bathtub or shower think ahead before doing it

Those are backing for clothes rod hanger

The wood in the wall between studs are for hanging something heavy on wall so you don't have to hit a stud

Chet is lucky that hammer was ripping the wall apart and not him lol

Multitool would have been perfect for cutting out the floor

I would reconsider how you are building those walls. I would build them laid down and stand them up.

So does Chet edit your videos since you edit his ? Great video

Chet I don't think you would want to get in a fight with your girl . I think she would tear your face off

@ 1-09 Chet, all i can say is make sure you hide that hammer at night....lol

that would be crazy if you found a peep hole camera

Chet, it’s a ceiling joist not a rafter !

Holy Crap-- over 500 thumbs up- not one thumbs down...

Maybe the previous owner wanted to hang something heavy on the wall.

That's is that same this we did at my house

0:46 Ha ha

What is Chet wearing on his feet? Did he bring his skateboard to help with the demo?
