Building an Easy Boulder Retaining Wall 🪨
There are all types of retaining walls but in this video we used boulders and some filter fabric as a simple way to build a small retaining wall on our hillside.

Soundproofing Between Floors and Walls 🤫🔇
zhlédnutí 10KPřed 14 dny
Sound control is often overlooked during construction. Yet it is a small investment to help minimize sound transfer in walls and through floors. While there are many different ways to dampen the sound, in this video we go over the steps that we took to help do so in this house. What I Used Green Glue Joist Tape: amzn.to/3wHm5g6 1x3x8 Wood Furring Strips Safe'n'Sound Sound Proof Insulation for w...
Should we have just TORN it down?
zhlédnutí 12KPřed 2 měsíci
This project is growing every day. We have excavated the backyard and put in retaining walls, lifted the entire house and reworked the foundation, completely reframed the interior, completely re-sheathed the exterior and are now completely redoing the plumbing, electrical, and HVAC. Is it all worth it? We will see in the end! SUPPORT ROGUE ENGINEER Buy a shirt: bit.ly/rogueSHOP Shop on Amazon: ...
We moved the Staircase!! (and I really screwed up 😬)
zhlédnutí 79KPřed 3 měsíci
The layout of this house when we bought it was a bit wonky. With the stairway in the middle of the house it really blocked the lake view for most of the downstairs. Plus it made the layout upstairs not very efficient. Since we are completely gutting this house I figured we mide as well frame out some new walls and move the staircase to create a more open and effective layout. To move the stairs...
Turning our Basement into an IGLOO Cooler! 🔥
zhlédnutí 17KPřed 3 měsíci
We knew we needed to insulate the basement since it will be our main living space with kitchen and living room. After some research we came across a product from InSoFast that would do just that. Not only is it R-15.9 continuous insulation but the studs are built into it, as well as electrical raceways, and the panels simply get glued to the walls! We also decided to insulate the slab with the ...
Installing Doors & Windows ... in a Concrete Wall 🪟
zhlédnutí 16KPřed 5 měsíci
With the harsh Michigan winter looming right around the corner we needed to get the doors and windows installed fast. However, installing windows and doors into a concrete wall was new to me. Figuring out how to flash the windows into the concrete block and seal the openings required a bit of research. Luckily I found the perfect flashing tape for the job. SIGA Fentrim is perfect for adhering t...
Low Ceilings!?! We RAISED the ENTIRE HOUSE!
zhlédnutí 117KPřed 6 měsíci
The first level of our 1940s lake house was way to short. Coming in at only 6’8” and 6’0” under the beam. To make this ceiling an appropriate height we decided to lift the entire second level and add 2ft to the foundation. While doing that we also cut in bigger windows and patio doors as well as strengthening the foundation itself before setting it back down. This was such a cool process and in...
How to Fix Sagging Floor Joists
zhlédnutí 41KPřed 6 měsíci
The 2nd story floor on one side of our 1940s lake house renovation had a noticeable low spot in the middle of it. This was due to cracked and sagging floor joists that were exposed when we demoed the interior. While some of the joists were just sagging due to a weak floor system in general, some had holes too close to the edge or a big knot that caused a crack and really weakened the joist, put...
How to Build A TIMBER Retaining Wall [What's Behind the Wall?]
zhlédnutí 69KPřed 6 měsíci
We had two big retaining walls to build and concrete block was out of our budget. Using 6x6 landscape timbers is a much more affordable option but the lifespan is less than that of concrete. After a ton of research I was able to come up with the construction plan to help mitigate water damage with drain lines and proper backfill, extending the lifespan, as well as build a structurally sound ret...

If not done properly your concrete block retaining wall can have issues resulting in leaning and possibly falling over.

    Built two of these and they really are as easy as he makes it look. If you build two, then you only need 7 2x6x8' boards. These are very stable and don't tip forward or backward easily and are quite comfortable.

    Can you explain why you did the extra work of putting up drywall and then the membrane instead of using kerdi board directly to the studs? I use a product called GoBoard all the time! Like your choice of power tools!

    welcome to Michigan! my wife and i own a lake house just like yours and I was so excited to see you buy a place and start making videos on it. Any worries about critters burrowing in those boulders? That's the biggest problem we have with our various retaining walls.

    Beware! This stuff seems like a good deal. And it is pretty good quality for the price. But Lifeproof doesn’t provide many plank patterns. I would have GLADLY paid another $1 or even $2 sq/f to get at least 8 different patterns.. I spent 50% of the install time figuring out which board to put next because there were only FOUR different board patterns… 8 if you include the same exact pattern but opposite direction. If it doesn’t bother you that you’ll see the same exact board all over the place, then don’t worry about it. But I know lots of people that would be annoyed. I am super annoyed by it. Lesson learned. Hopefully this helps save someone else the headache.

    @DDKirkpatrick Před 2 dny

    I might try this. Thanks for using basic tools and not saying you can and then just use the fancy tools to do it. Also I would consider using construction adhesive to make it a little stronger, but also making sure I don’t use too much and have it squeeze out.

    Понравилась закругленная спинка и в целом простая идея. Не понравились острые углы на подлокотниках и спинке, везде где можно коснуться телом я бы скруглял. Еще высота маловата, он сидит с прямыми ногами, а с согнутыми уже не посидишь. Если это по принципу шезлонга то нужно приделать атаманку под икры ног. Ну и все только на саморезах… я бы добавил чопиков каких что ли.
