Ilya has become a master laying bricks!!!

Put hay then does not dry so quickly. Joy to see you get nicer around.

Even over die slakken. ( hier in in mijn tuin ( én huis) een probleem). Koperdraad zou werken. Ik ben te laat begonnen met het spannen ervan, maar zie nu toch wel resultaat. koperdraad moet je nat houden ( dat lukt ook wel met al die regen).

I am working on my tiny house built on a slab which means all the pipes and conduits run under concrete. So far I have avoided having to jackhammer my way to a broken pipe but the water lines are hidden behind walls. All the leaks are located and fixed and holes in walls are finally sealed over. Now I replace damaged floors. Your labours and challenges keep me going. Thanks!

I find that I will be happy when you do not have to lug buckets and bricks up and down ladders!

Nice to see your daughter helping out with some things. Family projects are always fun!

Illya how many acres you own in that farm???

I believe you are happy, when work is done. YOU CAN.

Beautiful work

Well the chimney has been there a long time so it needs a very careful "cleaning" 😜. ❤ Your videos.

Ilia the hardest working man on you tube!

Chamotte brick can be used for this task but have seen them price maybe 20x times skyrocket over the last 6 years and old bricks looks like cold formed or overheated

If you have 110volt electricity. Rigid brand Vacuums are the best.

Crushed brick would be great for garden pathways. Thanks for sharing your journey with us. ✌🏻❤️🙏🏻🇺🇸PA

Niet bang voor “schoorsteenbrand”? Het gaat er mooi uitzien, bravo!

If water penetration is the reason for crumbling bricks. How did the water get to the internal chimney structure/wall?

You are very hardworking & have so much patience. ❤

Until I followed you I didn’t know that chimneys can be on angles. Please capture the first test of the new chimney. How’s your family from the Ukraine 🇺🇦 doing?

With the journey of this farm house renovation, I sometimes wonder how many bricks you've each touched and how many more you will need to get to in order to finish. I think you're close to making a huge leap and then the rest will quickly fall in place.

In Belgium, there is special nature conservation legislation that protects bats, particularly when renovations are conducted in old buildings. This protection is mandated both by Belgian law and EU directives. According to **Article 3 of the Belgian Royal Decree of 21 September 1983**, all bat species are strictly protected. This decree, which enforces the European Habitats Directive (Council Directive 92/43/EEC), prohibits the capture, killing, and disturbance of bats, as well as the destruction of their roosting sites. When planning renovations in old buildings where bats may be present, such as in chimneys, specific procedures must be followed: 1. **Assessment and Survey**: Before any work begins, a thorough assessment should be conducted to determine the presence of bats. This includes hiring a qualified ecologist to perform a bat survey, which is generally required under **Article 12 of the EU Habitats Directive**. 2. **Timing of Works**: Renovations should ideally be scheduled outside the breeding season (typically between May and August) and the hibernation period (between November and March) to minimize disturbance, as recommended in **Annex IV of the Habitats Directive**. 3. **Mitigation Measures**: If bats are found, mitigation measures must be implemented. This may include creating alternative roosting

I am actually wondering if you are going to put a flexible metal hose inside.

No , no, no Illia …they were the toughest bricks in Belgium , you just don’t know your own strength 😲🍻

Illiya, you always manage to make me chuckle with your dry sense of humour. You and Marina are a joy to watch.

Renovation is always fun when you get to buy new MORE POWER TOYS !!!!! It`s been a while you showed us some new toyzzzzz 🙂

Loads of hard labor getting things like this done. And your doing a really good job.

Dusty and tedious it may be, but my goodness Illia, you make it look almost effortless. Your ability to turn your hand to anything that arises in your home still amazes me 👍.

You certainly don't believe in cutting corners. If a job is worth doing it is worth doing well. That seems to be your method, well done. 👍

It's not tedious, I love to see part by part being taken off and then make it better!

Great work😊

Watching the process in x-speed with good music is not tedious to me. 🙂 Great editing. I get to see results in minutes. Oddly satisfying 😁

Jeremiah 31:33-34 King James Version 33 But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the Lord, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people. 34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the Lord: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more. Gods blessings over you .

Sorry but that was pretty boring.

Один,из главных участников..Котик! 💐🐈😊💖🤝

why they used these bricks, i think they already had the vision that a pair with a vision at a lots of passion will one day replace them and ask themselves why, why why???

This house will last another 200 years ❤❤

Ich freue mich über jedes Video von euch. Danke, dass ihr euer Grosses Projekt mit uns teilt...

Illiya - I just "re-discovered" your channel after 6 months or so, and WOW your English has improved dramatically! Congratulations - it is not an easy language to learn.

Beautiful place where you are preparing to live! Quiet country home will be a blessing one day.

Good brick work which is never easy but you always do such a great job !

Do you know who originally built this house and when? If you already said in another video, don't bother to answer. God bless you both.

❤😊

Hardworking bloke, on top of his paid job too. This isnt just a house, its a lifestyle. X

“… or at least not bad” hahaha!

Hardest working guy on KZfaq!

So much hard work, but it's nice you are able to do it, for me those days are long gone.

Ugh that’s a lot of dusty work! I hope you’re right and it’s the last bit of demolition that you have to do in this building. ♥️

A suggestion from your follower for two years: what about making a compilation video once in few weeks, say "What we did this spring". It will give rare viewers a good alternative and boost views for newcomers. Loved your small house renovation compilation and wildflowers field compilation.

Why not to use a liner with in chimney? Почему бы не использовать вкладыш в дымоходе? Так безопаснее и вероятность утечки газов меньше.

Illia Hoping along with you that this is the last of the demolition. I understand needing to get the walls as strong as possible. It's a dirty and hard job. But you just smile and keep going. I'm very impressed by your attitude. I wonder how much debris you have removed from the house since you started the renovation.

I am so glad he only has to do this once!!!!! He doesn't want to do this when he is older!!!!
