This video is so useful. I dont know why you never made a video like this before
In the middle of a whole house remodel (living in it) and this is a great over-view of how to keep things clean. Thanks!
You really are the best DIY guy on you tube . Every video i find massively useful
Glad you like them! Cheers!
Ooo stair armor and my fave green 🐸 frog tape. That frog 🐸 tape really works! It gives you a straight line! No paint bleed thru. Great tape! As for all these tips, I wish I had known this earlier 🤪. I can still find sanding dust in some nooks and crannies from a project a few years ago. Yes seal things off!!!
I bought 2 lengths of extendable props, used those to push a 1x2 up to the ceiling with plastic taped to the walls. Kept a lot of it out during a huge travertine tile/cement board removal job and then drywall work.
That's a great idea!
About to begin to prep my condo for paint. This video really saved my bacon. Thank you!
Great work and many thanks Jeff!
Well done on you helping your mate out!
Thanks 👍CZcams is making it possible for me to just live my life helping folks out.
@@HomeRenoVisionDIY Fantastic!
Credit to you and your family!
It's a win-win!
People like me, simpletons, and even some pros i am sure, get to learn and you can keep teaching us!
👍
Great videos. Thanks.
Brilliant! Thanks!
Cheers Robert!
Great video Jeff
Glad you enjoyed it! Cheers!
I buy those cheap $18 box fans at walmart. Then buy a 3M square furnace filter and tape it to the front of it to keep the area clean.
Thanks for mentioning the filters on the furnace. I didnt think about that. That will save me a problem potentially.
Glad to help! Cheers!
Beyond filters, it's very much worth it to clean the inside of an older furnace to prolong its life. Especially with gas, if the inducer and/or blower motor(s) are dirty, the efficiency will be reduced and the poor flow from either will cause higher heat stress. We bought a house recently and the otherwise nice 95% furnace went out because the previous owner neglected filters and both motors died. If the vents and chambers are kept clean the heat exchangers will last a LONG time and at worst any other failure is at most a $200 part online. We learned the hard way that HVAC companies are often scam artists with insane markup.
They sell a two pack of that exact zipper on Amazon for $25, am using for my Reno’s right now. great product!
Hi Jeff,
I would like to see you skim coat OSB. After I thought of it, I found one video on CZcams about it but it was all over the map and nothing anybody could follow up on.
I decided to use OSB for the walls inside of my garage, and then decided against paint, and rolled a coat of floor urethane on it that I had. I can hang things anywhere, and never have to fill a hole because you can't find the hole back if you wanted to due to the pattern. I laid the sheets 4' high and 8' long and lined up all of the mill stamps right-side-up so it looks good. (No, nobody can get the mill stamps off no matter what the Internet says, and if you try, you will only make it look like crap. The ink is soaked WAY down into the wood surface.) HOWEVER, now I would like to do my basement with OSB. In the workshop I would do what I did in the garage, but the rest, I would like to mimic drywall. There would be a thousand things you could do with it such as built-in shelf areas and you probably wouldn't even need outside-corner, screw-down removable panels, etc. Moreover, OSB adds strength and rigidity to everything, and handles moisture WAY better than moisture-resistant drywall. It would never sag on go wavy on walls or ceilings, even on 24" centers.
OSB wants an 1/8" gap, BUT that is for roofing where there is a very good possibility that it will have trapped water on it for weeks or months at a time. After thinking long and hard, I decided to be a guinea pig against all advice, line everything up with a laser and construction-screwed everything tight, so tight, I couldn't slide a piece of printer paper between the joints. I live in Michigan with its wild temperature and humidity swings, with a 2 1/2 stall unattached garage, uninsulated on purpose, that has a 6.5 HP 80 gallon two-stage compressor, welder, and gas furnace that I use when I work out there off-and-on during with winter, with cars making puddles on the floor from melting snow. The OSB seams are the same as as tight as the day I put them in, with no swelling at the seams and and no gaps. I was concerned at first because they say they are slightly undersized to maintain standard stud spacing and maintain the gap. I never had any issue. By the time you cut the end to match the slightly crooked wall in the corners, and have factory edges along the edges for everything in the middle, and everything being a little off, and the small number of sheets when you lay them down, I never once had a situation where the theoretically shorter length caused the seam to run out anywhere other than the center of the studs. You will need walls longer than 25 feet, I can tell you that, and if you have a track saw and a laser, you can MAKE factory edges to adjust if required.
Thanks!
Great and thank you Jeff! Can we see some work done on this basement? I have someone working on mine as I type this, but hoping to kick them out and start doing it myself! Also, what are those ceiling heights...20 feet in the basement? Cheers!
After watching one of the previous drywall videos, I bought a roll of that flat ducting and a high-volume fan. Even as a homeowner, they're super-useful. For example, I keep a piece of the duct stapled to the roof truss in my attic. If I have to work up there on a hot day, I hook up a fan to it on "high" for a few hours and it drops the temperature from "holy crap I'm going to die up here" to just "this is miserable" levels. 😆Those big fans are also super-useful for everything from drying out a flooded basement to airing out the house on a nice day to drying floors quickly after cleaning up. I really like the version with a swivel-head to give you even more options on how to use it.
Cheers to that. One of my favorite tools to speed up a lot of jobs.
Dust rats, love it. Living it for going on 14 months due to insurance nightmare
G'day Jeff! Another great video. I am curious where you got the lay flat ducting. I've checked home depot, Lowes, Rona, home hardware, and none of them offer it. Seems like the only place is Amazon with 500' rolls. Where did you get yours and is buying it in a large roll the only option?
Thanks for the great tips with dust control ! A few times a year we run concrete saws and jackhammers in homes to make repairs. Dust control sometimes seems as labor intensive as the work itself. We try to set up an air scrubber right beside a tool creating crazy amounts of dust and use all of the techniques you mentioned in as well . Excellent video!
Cheers, concrete dust is no joke! another option is to use water to keep down the dust when possible. Cheers!
Would you do the same thing when the walls are lead paint but add in a hepa filer vacuum instead? And of course more PPE?
"Dust rats" LOL I died 🤣 😂
Cheers!
Hey guys -- do you have a video on how to run underground electrical to a detached shed/garage?
Publishing videos about a new job? I still am invested in your last project. I wanna see church conversations still.
Could you do a video just simply on splicing different plumbing materials? For example, going from copper or galvanized to pex.
very interesting idea. Cheers!
Hey Jeff! I know you’ve done many drywall videos including laminating drywall to a ceiling. can you guys please do a video on removing popcorn ceiling techniques and skim coating? Without asbestos lol.
Ha ha! People really hate popcorn 🍿 ceilings. Why they ever became a trend?
I'm sure he's trying asbestos he can
That is on my list for sure. Cheers!
I do this on a smaller lever and add to my bid for it. But I mean what do you charge for all the protection $1-$2k?
i had a tighter basement steps to go down… was lucky and smart enough to realize 16’ drywall would whip around the tight bend
did you have a 12' ceiling as well. Cheers!
@@HomeRenoVisionDIY no
What mil thickness do you recommended for lay flat ducting?
Where do you get the large rolls of plastic venting?
👍😊
Once you see Chris O'Dowd you wont unsee him from that day forth 🙂
Also do you need to do anything with the furnace other than filters?
turn it off on days when you are making a huge mess. Most houses can go a few hours without conditioning and then catch up after clean up. Cheers!
Hi - what sort of power (W) fan / air mover would you need for this?
any fan designed to dry under a carpet. we call them snail fans. Cheers!
👍👍
How about a box fan with a furnace filter, if I can’t get to a window?
actually use multiple 20x20 filters, to make a cube with the box fan as one side. The outer face of the fan should be sucking air into the cube, not blowing out, as this traps the dust INSIDE the cube.
Where can I get this fan? and the plastic tube.
the fan is a rigid fan from home depot. google insurance restoration supply store for all these materials. Cheers!
Notice the plastic and insulation. Thought in a previous video you said not to do that and to use the foam boards.
I recommend a different assembly for insulating a basement. That does not mean it is wrong just not as right as I would have preferred.
Amazon has zip walls
Hello FRIEND
papabless
Cheers!
request you help me with my basement

My basement is free for you.
Wish you were my friend. I'd let you renovate anything you want for free in my house.
Those steps look like they could use a middle singer.
with 2" wood there is no problem.
Vapor barrier on the inside in the basement? NOT!
It's required by code where I live, in Minnesota.
@@dad1432 the vapor barrier in the basement should be along the concrete... minnesota or not :)
OMG can I please be your best friend!!!>????
LOL. The Ram Board stair protectors cost more than the stairs themselves. 6 for $30!!! lol Yea no
Doing it for free? What?!
I really wanted to dop a basement series and I found someone to let me finish their basement to help you all out.
