Re-Constructing A Porch About To Fall Down
zhlédnutí 48KPřed rokem
Watch As We Turn A Failing Porch Into A Stable & Beautiful Addition To a Family Home. www.ohionexuspropertycare.com For this job we were initially contracted to replace the steps that we're falling apart from the back, however we agreed to raise the porch roof, which had fallen 3 inches lower, by replacing the inadequate 4x4s with 6x6s, we installed pre-cast piers under the frost line to limit ...
Nice work Would like to have seen how you finished up the lower end of the ramp
Great video 👍🏼
when the neck is sus
Beautiful job. Curious how many days the timelaps was. Can you share the approximate cost to build including labor?
Great, until I saw the notching of the posts. Why even bother with extraordinarily expensive 8x8 or 10x10 when you are grinding them out with imprecision and weakening them. Dovetails are great with indoor furniture. 10 year rot failure, here we come.
My guess is you can’t build a bird house 😂😂😂
They're doing a great job. Per code, those 2x8 cross pieces must be fully supported by wood and connected by 1/2 inch stainless steel nuts, bolts, and washers. The workmanship is fine. At least they're using 6x6 PT posts. Too many videos show use of 4x4 posts which will fail county inspection.
My guess is you can't build your way out of a wet paper bag. @@goldlinemedia967
When they needlessly notch out half of the post, they are weakening the entire structure down to the same as just using a smaller post. No point in using anything large if you are literally cutting away half the structure, unless they want to mark up materials and rip off the old person they are working that doesn't know any better. This is goofy. Buy 6 x 6 for 70% of the price, and skip the pointless notches entirely, and no fake rabbets to rot out in under 10 years. Also notice some overcuts in the notches, because they used a 6" circular saw instead of a band saw or table saw, meaning the crap is going to fail even faster. @@DD-dh5ls
Hello from Germany, I am planning a wheelchair ramp in nearly this style, too - but for 5 steps with a platform and a turn. I think this is one of the rare videos where the posts were layed on concrete foundation. Have to do the same, because of front yard. Will use more posts, but smaller ones. Thanks for sharing!
Job well done! 👍
Hello from London, U.K, your channel came up in my recommendations. I have just subcribed 21st Sept 2023.
Hello from across the pond my friend! Thanks for tuning in and supporting the channel!
Nice job 👍🏾😀❤️
Thank You for your kind words, We appreciate it!
I hope these guys are able to build their deck building business up. They did a good job using the bare minimum of tools.
We appreciate the kind words and support!
They must be paid by the hour to bust out those steps with sledge hammers. LOL
Thanks for watching! It was nothing but pure elbow grease lol We were unfortunately and hour and a half away from the nearest location to get one and just had to use what we had on hand.
Are those 6x6s? You notched 3 inches out of the ones in the middle..?
Hello friend! If you're interested in learning more about notching, load transfer, and the benefits that come with using this method I'd strongly recommend looking into the subject. Lots of interesting information if it's not something you already have previous knowledge of. Thanks for watching!
YOU GUYS NOT GOOD TO DO THIS KIND THE JOB. YOOU NOT WHAT TO DO ALSO TAKE TO MUCH TIME TO DO DO SMALL PORCH
Thanks for watching friend!
Wouldn't it have been MUCH easier if you rented a jackhammer? Nice job though.
We definitely agree I would've been much easier. Unfortunately the location put us about hour and half away from access to one so had to run what we had on us. Thanks for watching
why not put up lattice fencing to cover that crumpling wall?
Excellent question friend! We fulfilled the contract with our client, at Nexus Property Care we don't upsell non-essential work unless the homeowner specifically requests it.
Whoever built the porch you replaced probably thought they did a great job. The code violations and lack of construction knowledge are hilarious. New porch done very nicely, although I don’t care for the stair run or railing height compared to deck rails. Also, you need to add a graspable handrail.
Thanks for the feedback. Our area has a very slim economy and our service "professionals" can reflect that. On all rebuild jobs we do our best to work within our clients budget and their specific requests, but almost every single one I'd rather tear it all down and start fresh. It's just not always plausible. I will consider the handguard placement. It felt great at the time and everyone was happy, but it may be best to offset it rather than center. Thanks for offering your input and promoting a new perspective.
great work guys!!!!
We appreciate the feedback. We hope you stay tuned for our next video on a deck project. Thank you for watching my friend
A wonderful rebuilt porch. That will last a life time. Thanks.
Thank you so much for your kind words!
I worked at a hotel that had mulch..& A Huge problem with ants..and someone threw a cigarette in it that started a fire and the manager had it all replaced with gravel
Your porch is beautiful and a great job building it, the owners need to clean underneath the porch, it’s the eye sore😂. Love your work!
Thank you so much for the kind words!!! We agree with you on that one, last I heard the owners were cleaning it up in preparation for skirting to be installed.
Good job.. a little advice might take you a long way. Invest in a post hole digger, runs on gas and makes light work of digging post holes instead of doing it by hand. The best $300 bucks I ever spent. I think i've done about 25 fence jobs alone at a min $2000 labor each job. Do the math, it's worth it.
Rocks and Boulders friend
All I could say is y’all didn’t hear off “jackhammers “ 🤔💯
While I agree machines are your friend, sometimes you just have to work with what you already have and we were an hour away from access to a jackhammer. It aint stupid if it works. Thanks for watching friend.
Did u buy the sanau tubes with cancrete in them already or did u add concrete somewhere else?
We precast them about a week before the job.
So nice!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the video!
I had to ask… what was wrong with the porch? I didn’t seem that was about to fall down at all? The ‘re-construction’ process was basically changing the beams and get rid of the concrete blocks bases?
Long Story Short, the 4x4 posts are not rated strong enough to hold the porch roof and the block footers were cracked and had heaved over the winter. These 4x4 posts had stood less than a year and the roof had sagged just over 3 inches. The combination of warped and twisted 4x4s, non structural beam connections, and the shifting ground could have easily collapsed the roof after another bad winter and/or bad storm. It may not have a dramatic appearance of falling down, but that's only because we caught it in time. The far right post was the most severe and if it were to shift off the footer the weight distribution has a high likelihood of bringing the whole roof down very suddenly.
@@nexuspropertycare Thank you so much for the detailed explanation. Like you mentioned from the appearance alone and without the background info on the current issues, I couldn’t tell such a major repair was needed. I really appreciate your response. Great job and keep up the hard work. You guys will do amazing!
@@nexuspropertycareif the 4x4s weren't strong enough then why did you notch 3" out of those 6x6s? Lol
I take it these guys were not the ones who put the deck with a roof over it on blocks instead of footers? People have to pay twice to get their home improvements done because they hire people who don't care about local codes.
Is notching the 6x6 posts la good idea? It looks amazing, but doesn’t that weaken the structure? I’m asking.
Notching a post does not weaken the structural integrity because the load for the deck is transferred down through the post and beams to the footings as a solid structure. It's much stronger than relying on nails or screws to hold your beam up around the post and remains safe as the deck ages as anything metal will deteriorate no matter how well its protected. It's considered best practice for many other reasons as well, such as shear and torsion force protection. You just have to make sure its tight and transfering the load.
@@nexuspropertycare thank you! I’m a new handyman so I’m still learning. I guess tight joints would be crucial to transfer the load properly. Really interesting, thanks for the response and explanation.
@@carlosraymundomartinezesq3396 Of course, thanks for watching and asking. Always happy to help
Concrete steps the hard way!! Kudos ... remember machines are your friend ... you needfriend that hads concrete business
You aint wrong 😅. Closest jackhammer we could find to rent was over an hour away.
