You should do a video showing how to cut out sections and actually replacing of the sub floor. It would be helpful to those of us who have gone through over 5 layers of old floors to finally get to the subfloor and it's in such bad shape it's literally flaking off in layers like an onion or like one of the multi-layer biscuits. I feel like just covering it up would be the going the route the previous owners did when they first got the water damage, and like the drywall, they just covered it up with wallpaper and called it fixed.

@@sw204me Thanks for the comment. when deciding on a proper course of action it is important to consider the clients needs as well. If i was to cut the subfloor at the hardwood then I would have created a weak spot in the floor that would have been impossible to manage as the joist was not under the hardwood. This would have caused me to remove and reinstall the entire floor in the hallway. Definitely not in the budget at this point. Just because the mind was offended by restoring the wood does not mean it is not structurally sound and capable of performing long term. Having solutions that don't cause new problems is very important in my business. it is much harder to repair without sutting things out and in most cases more advantageous. Cheers!

@@HomeRenoVisionDIY I think you misunderstood me, I wasn't at all saying that you were wrong for covering it up, I was saying for people like me who have to cut out the subfloor because the damage is severe, it would be great if you had a video that demonstrated how to do that properly.

I bet my bathroom issue is one you haven't see before lol. Appaently when the old farmhouse I live in, switched from an outhouse to indoor plumbing, their idea of a bathroom was putting 3 walls and a roof up, right against the house at the side door.. so the bathroom door, is actually still the original side door, including the window! When trying to change the bathtub, not only did I find a rotted floor, but also the reason it rotted to begin with... Apparently, the tub was still on the old grey water system... the overflow and waste water assembly, didn't go anywhere or attach to anything... there is a 4 foot hole under the floor boards, and that tis where the tub drained! No wonder the floor is so rotted! I wish you could see it, you would not believe it! lol

I’m all for throwing down 3/4 inch on top of a 1/2 subfloor, but, how do you deal with clearances when, for example, you tiling a mud room, and the new height (1.25inch subfloor, ~5/8’s Tile & Thinset), prevents you from opening doors, the transition from laminate to tile is a tripping hazard, baseboards don’t line up, etc. Etc. Im still learning and appreciate your videos, but there are considerations to be made when making a 1 1/4 Sunfloor in an existing house. Please shed light on this. . Thanks.

I’m not doing a bathroom renovation, but instead a swing set project involving cutting the supports on my old playhouse, which I outgrew, to save the playhouse from complete destruction. The swing set itself, as well as the sand play area, will be removed. The wood from the swing set and the frame of the sand play area will be used as firewood. The swings themselves, as well as the ropes holding them in place, will be burned on the burn pile at my dad’s business. However, the burn pile is on residential property. Not commercial property. And I have the best vehicle for the job. The John Deere XUV855D Gator 4x4.

@kimchee94112 5 жыл бұрын
I had a contractor install a single sheet of rolled vinyl for the bathroom floor that was originally clean, free of mold and water intrusion a few years ago. You would think the floor glue and solid vinyl on top would sealed it but when I remove the flooring there were heavy black mold throughout underneath. Which leads me thinking that spray paint aint going to kill any mold long term. And then when I thought my 1-1/8" sub floor was rock solid with no external sign of water damage other than in a tiny corner area by visual inspection and by jumping on it, termites were feasting on the internal layers. It's like cancer you just remove more and more subfloor till no sign of damage and hope it doesn't run underneath the walls into the next rooms.

We bought a 1994 double-wide modular home 9 years ago. it had a tiny squeak on the master bathroom floor. It is getting worse. Now modular homes are built light and cheap, which is sad when they have an opportunity to build a perfect house, but that just is not their focus. in this home, they used a cheap sawdust board, not plywood or OSB as the floor with maybe some 1/4" masonite to even up the floors. So adding another layer won't work as the bathroom floor would end up 3/4" higher than the bedroom floor. so I am left with replacing the floor panel which means pulling the john and sinks cabinet and possibly the tub shower. Can you say, "congratulations you fave graduated up to needing a contractor? We already had to replace most of the utility room floor due to years of the water leaking in under an entry door. I worked with a carpenter and we replaced a 5' x 4' section of the floor and covered it with masonite that was stapled and glued to the entire floor and covered with sheet vinyl. It turned out pretty nice. Before there is more damage I want to add a covered entry as this is the weather side of the house.

I ripped up tile and the mortar.... but there are areas that the wood was definitely water damaged to the point its chipped away and gone. Is it ok to cover it up with a new piece like you did here or should it be ripped out and replaced? No mold. Not weak in my opinion but the integrity of the board is comprised for sure. Area is near a tub / shower

You're videos are wonderful! Okay I have a bathroom that was put in where a room was once. I can see no water damage under the tub, but the floors from the tub to the wall where the toilet and sink are, is bowing. What I can see is they did not put plywood sub floor down they just kept the floor boards from the room and then added backer board, followed by tile. I believe that the sub floor is not supporting in all locations and needs to be pulled up re supported and then put plywood, backer board, and then tiled again. Do you think this is the right direction to go?

We caulked the area until we were ready financially to renovate. I knew we had a bigger issue when the bathroom tiles would move around as we walk. We also noticed that the toilet was not being held down to anything! Low and below, I ripped out the shower, and starting removing the tiles, and there this black ashy soot like thing on the subfloor. Plus there’s mold. Plus the subfloor is so rotted that it’s literally flaking off. What should we do??

pex is the best performer in freeze thaw scenarios, however make sure to keep the plumbing on the interior of the air and vapor barrier so it does not freeze. also insulate the crawl space walls and add a heat source to avoid freezing. cheers!

12:38 - That's great advise for an early 20 year old to know when they get in their first relationship. "If you just got one stubborn squeak that you can't get rid of, go ahead and keep screwing it until the noise is gone."

I have some black left from roof a water leak. A lot of boards were replaced. But some just have black stain and were not replaced. Will Kilz hold up in a hot attic if I spray over this black? Being in a confined attic space maybe I should roll on kilz?

I'm a bit confused. Wasn't the old subfloor flushed with the threshold or the camera angle makes it look like it's flushed? How come the new plywood still flushed with the threshold?

Jeff, can you shoot a video on brick repairs? I have some loose bricks around my house and entryway and don't know how to properly repair them with mortar or any other adhesive that doesn't look like Liquid Nails.

Hey Jeff, can you make a video about "how to fix bubbles under taping and mud on walls and ceilings, maybe underneath wallpaper"? and "how to fix a wall or ceiling where the mud and taping is shinning trough the paint". It would really help to know how to fix it. :) Sorry for the spelling, im from Denmark so i don't write alot in English :D

I am goiung to do a video on bad taping practices and how to fix the mess for sure. Cheers to Denmark! P.S. Love your english...You rock!
@Siansonea 5 жыл бұрын
I'm going to guess that fixing the mud and taping shining through the paint is going to involve Kilz primer. That stuff is awfully useful. Kilz and a laser level are the MVPs of this channel.
