I love that he’s still using all the same contractors.
Everyone is so much older!
These are from 14 years ago.
@@JobeStroud this is Holmes Inspection episode aired in 2009.
His original show first aired in 2003.
6 years might not be a long time, but you can see the difference in peoples faces.

Mike doesn't F around, he tells you what you NEED to hear, not what you want to hear. Then he turns around and fixes the major problems he finds. Solid.
I can see how you might think that but look into him a little further and you'll think otherwise. The TV does a VERY good job making this guy look good.
1999 - 2000, I worked on the Vancouver Central Boiler, that feeds Gas Town and others. I spent a week on one boiler removing asbestos. Brown bricks. I seen TV India blue asbestos, workers in India do not have any type of masks. One fibre in the lungs. British Columbia Asbestos Law, all towels after shower, for lunch no breaks, and shower end of day. All towels are inspected. One fibre on towel, shuts the site down for full inspection.
22:51 That guitar riff is def from command and conquer generals
I really hate the inspectors refered by the realtor! They are likely to be "working" for the realtor as in likely to pass on things to make the sale! I was an inspector and went out of business not from being incompetent but from being an advocate for the buyer!! Realtors began only referring inspectors that "worked with them" or worked for the seller, I refused to compromise my integrity so became infamous in my area and went out of business a year later!!
In this episode the asbestos DID NOT NEED REMOVAL! It was still fairly whole and PROPER remediation would have been to encapsulate and LEAVE IN PLACE!!
They just wanted drama for the show and I believe (like was already stated) that the new owners ignored the inspection because they wanted this house and then found out how much they had ignored and wanted to back out!!
I love the comment about lipstick work being beautiful. My father born 1912 with a contractor. And he used to say all the time... you can put lipstick on a pig but it's still a pig.
one of the things they teach in the navy, verify the problem before you fix it so you know that you fix it for sure. referring to the plumbing issue but applies to any and all things hope it helps.
As a supervisor I had to tell / teach many works even if your sure of the fix verify the problem first then fix it.
Watching you guys moving items just kills me! As a mover with over 30 years of experience, I implore you to please get some moving straps and dollies to make it easier!
this is like 10 years ago dude

means mike holmes isnt reading these lol @@unclestevemoves
In 1970 I worked as a carpenter on a reform school . The architect specified the foundations and soffits to be 1/4" Transite which was an asbestos/cement product. Being more muscle than brain, for months, I cut Transite with a circular saw using a dry carborundum blade. For the lack of proper safety concerns, I spit and picked gray the entire time. I'm 81, still working , and don't know of any co-workers from back then that suffered asbestosis. I've had several x-rays in the past 25 years to keep check and my Irish luck holds true?
That's good to hear that you are doing well after your exposure
Just think of how well you would have been if you hadn't been exposed to a dangerous substance!!!
I taken plenty of xrays of older construction workers, most have evidence of asbestos exposure. Its sad, you are fortunate
Asbestos was used for a reason, It Worked. It will continue to do so, except where exposed it is likely to become damaged and the fibers air born, which then become a health hazard. The other issue is getting heating equipment Serviced, when there is the possibility of the Service Person coming in contact with it. Keep in mind Hot Water/Steam Pipes/Valves RUST and begin to leak eventually, requiring replacement. THEN the fun really begins. Abatement (the removal and replacement with approved material) is expensive. While some places allow owners to perform the removal after taking a short class (it's not rocket science), Disposal is still the issue and can be expensive.
Smart choice on the new insulation. Rockwool is water proof, fire proof, mice and bugs hate it and it does provide a bit of sound proofing. I'm renovating a 1972 mobile home and turning it into a log cabin. After doing my homework that's what I chose.
As a broker myself I have encountered the potential for asbestos on hydronic heating lines and have notified the client - I'm not a home inspector either.
Asbestos only poses a risk if & when it is disturbed and particulates become airborne. Like lead based paint, encapsulating it seals up any risk of being disturbed. If it's buried inside a wall it's no hazard. If it's above a drop ceiling, that could be disturbed & become airborne. My home has both asbestos drywall& lead paint; neither are an issue unless I start tearing down walls.
I like how Mike Holmes says that the report check off list is too generic that's supposed to be one-size-fits-all. Just like when you're building a house you need to know the geographical area you need to know. What type of soil what type of weather. Simple you put different material in the bathroom then you would in a living room. I totally agree that depending on the house the age the geographical area. The types of materials being used back in a certain generation should all be considered.
So many times when they do a flip or reno, they do a facelift when what is needed is a heart transplant. Love in an apt building that got sold. New owners made it look pretty, but the water was still rusty in the faucets, and the electric was old, too.
This one looks like a previous owner NEW there was asbestos and did only enough removal to try to hide the fact.
I know what happens with abestos. My Dad died from that poison. He was 55 years old and got it from the Naval ships in worked in for 30 years.
You should never stir up the dust fibers by walking on the floors and also on the pipes for another reason people who don't have a clue
This is a guy that has a great business and has got to be the most honest person around. And that cares about his job and other peoples homes.
If you knew there was asbestos, would you have bought the house? If she told the truth, the answer would be yes, it was on the report.
Asbestos is bad, but if you don't touch it and just leave it alone nothing will happen to you. It's not like you will tear into it and make it come apart.
It seems to me that this asian woman wears the pants and never shuts up, lol.
On heating and cooling cycles I believe the air circulates on by the asbestos, so a tiny amount constantly gets distributed. That open end would have to be closed and sealed at minimum. But then we have wind storms a few times a year , and during that it would pressurize or depressurize the space and release particles through (normal) cracks in the drywall.
The electrician said that the wires to the fuse box needed to be changed from double wires per clip to single wires per clip. However at the end of the episode at 40:04 you can see that all of the wiring is still two wires to one clip. It should have been fixed. I'm surprised that wasn't done.
I saw that too. In fact, I think he only replaced the breakers. In fact, I think they never got an inspection other than the environmental certification. That one probably goes to a state/provincial authority. The air quality guy was a private contractor separate from the hazard abatement crew.
Maybe they swapped the staples? Some are ok for two #14 AWG loomex under a single staple.
"If it ain't broke, don't fix it!"
@@jackriley5974 Clearly. And if the job gets inspected, it is an existing condition. Might even have been legal when it was done,
The staples were changed go back to when he pointed out and back to the the end.
Thanks for having a heart of gold I know what that is like my parents we t through the same thing so I would support them with what ever money I made but now they have bothered passed so I had to carry-on with the accumulated bills along with my sister helping each other is what we do .
My husband and I take I. Misfit children whom we help get jobs and reconnect with their own parents .
Frank’s legendary unibrow of wisdom.
Just says absolutely nothing about the panel clearance.
No way would I ever buy a used house. I want to see it being built know what kind of materials are used.
Hello Mike and Damon, just a bit of info, to carry washing and drying machines up or down stairs, always with the back of the machine to the stairs, tilted, either use straps to carry, or without, the person at the bottom to grab where the feet are, and the other person to grab the back of the top of the machine,, but make sure the top is fixed tight and not loose. and your guys won't get back problems, but if they carry on how they carried the Drying machine out of the basement, they will.
Wishing you all the best.
Malcolm from Germany
ps, Love your videos
I'm a little confused. Neither her nor her husband noticed the before they bought the house and for 14 months, they didn't notice it. Then one day she comes down and OMG surprise!
Until I watched this episode, I thought the house with the unsupported dropped basement back in season 1 of Holmes on Homes was the scariest thing I'd ever see Mike dealing with.
witch episode was that?
@@gundam8655 Season 1 episode 11, Site Unseen.
I like how Mike used to tell us the cost of the project
Well that's another story in it s self tell me honestly how much does it cost for a crew of guys to get it done plus material's do you honestly think it would be come on people get a clue probably at least 50000 thousand dollars or something else like that number let's be honest with life
@27:25: Mike said, "A couple of breakers are overloaded, 20-amp over 15."
I'm having trouble making sense of that criticism.
If there's a 20A breaker over a circuit sized for 15A, that's a problem, but it's not an overloaded breaker; it'd be an over-sized breaker.
If there's a circuit sized for 20A (e.g., 12 AWG) protected by a 15A breaker, that's also fine. (I've heard him say this before as a criticism, but I'm not aware of any NEC prohibition of it and it doesn't make sense to me as a criticism.)
The best interpretation I can think of is that he found an appliance with a 20A induction motor fed by 12 AWG and protected by a 15A breaker, but then the homeowners probably would've noticed it tripping.
It's just not a very clear criticism. It kind of sounds like Mike was trying to think of things to make it sound bigger or worse than it was.
Artificial drama 😉
Not sure if the NEC applies to most of Holmes videos as they are mostly Canadian homes being shown (so CEC instead of NEC).
Plus he might have just mixed words and they didnt do a re-take, even if you know what your talking about sometimes you still can spit out nonsense (Brain Farts).
Hard to say what he really meant, and while in every episode there usually is something to nitpick about usually the work that is done is good even if not always necessary.
The whole issue with Mike is making it right. He wants everything perfect and we don't live in a perfect world. But home owners knowing this stuff before hand would be a plus for them. Give them negotiating space on the price.
"20A over 15" makes it clear to me that he meant that the breaker was over-rated for the wire. Which is a problem if anyone overloads the circuit (drawing more than 15A but less than 20A).
@crgd23 So you think he just misspoke by saying the breaker was overloaded, and instead, he meant the breaker was over-rated?
I said on another video there are some funny moments. "Mike this is heavy" then Damon gives Mike Jr blankets. That was so funny. That got to have laughter with all the wrongs done to that house. Its a beautiful home beautiful. Great job guys great job.
Whomever the trades were, not to mention any family hanging around, who performed the renovation work on this home (prior to Mike Holmes), is a walking health time bomb.
We're all "walking time bombs"!
So, the inspector noted the possibility of asbestos on the inspection. Did these people not read the report? And if they did read it, why didn't they ask about it? For a homeowner that seems very aware of the of the danger of asbestos, it seems a little weird that a note about the "possibility of asbestos" would be ignored. I'm all for complete and competent home inspections but at some point the homeowner has to take some responsibility and at least ask a few questions.
They also noted the drainage/grading issues. These people just wanted this home no matter what and paid the price. My brother bought a home a few years back, its at that age where there could have been some asbestos, it was noted on the inspection and we had it tested before it was bought. Not doing your due diligence is not the inspectors fault. All these other tests that should have been done, scoping ect all cost money which I'm guessing they didn't want to spend. They had multiple other reports that said asbestos and they passed on them, this also said it was a possibility. This is buyers remorse nothing else.
@@TranceEmotion Yeah, I agree. At the beginning the homeowner states the inspector said nothing about asbestos and she found herself while cleaning. Later, Holmes mentions it was noted on the inspection. Doesn't add up. Even Holmes at the beginning hedged his answer saying odds are that it is asbestos. He doesn't know for sure until it is tested. I don't get why they think the inspector should've declared it as asbestos just by looking at it. He noted it was possibly asbestos, just like Holmes did.
I know these shows are scripted and I've generally been a fan of Holmes' shows. But this one just seems like a clumsy attempt to manufacture controversy.
It's the difference between "a car may possibly drive through here" versus "a car is coming, get out of the way"
@@wolfie7051 Except in this case the homeowners denied they were even told about the "possibility" and claim they knew nothing until the car was in sight.
Maybe because it's television and it's all fake for dramatic effect.
With the way people like to sue, I would expect inspectors to be leery of saying the words asbestos or mold. Once you do that, the sale of the house is dead. The owner of the house will certainly sue and inspectors want none of that.
I don't blame them for wanting it out, but it's important to understand a couple of things: One, if the asbestos is enclosed in the wall/ceiling and undisturbed, you're not getting particles of it floating around in the air. Two, there are multiple types of asbestos, not all of which are a problem. The types with the really small fibers are the dangerous ones to get in your lungs, but it takes testing to determine which type was used in this house.
Yes - well said. The panic and drama here was a little overdone, but that's Holmes :) It's most dangerous for the workers installing or removing asbestos repeatedly, hence the hazmat suits and disposal requirements. Same thing with lead paint - it's only dangerous if it is disturbed (like little children gnawing on the window sill). I have no clue what Canadian regs require but it seems to me they could have just extended the bulkhead to encase the exposed asbestos
You are giving bad information to people who view your comment so I hope you will edit it. All types of asbestos applications (insulation, floor adhesive, building siding, i could go on and on) are harmful and dangerous. There are 6 in total types of Asbestos mineral compounds, all of which are harmful. The important factor as you said is whether or not you disturb the asbestos. When you touch something that contains asbestos when not using the proper abatement methods, the fibers will become airborne.
Source: Me - Commercial construction contractor that has had to deal with asbestos remediation many many times. OSHA 30 + EPA asbestos abatement licensing. I specialize in this.
Thank you. Asbestos that is encased in a bulkhead is ZERO concern. The only real mistake was not enclosing the end wall.
But in this case the asbestos was disturbed and there are loose particles. It will need remediation. Hope the people that disturbed it don't have any health issues...
They said that in the episode…
There is code for working space for electrical panels. Should be addressed
So every homeowners that gets their house fixed claims to be broke and can't afford any more repairs so who pays for all this because according to Mike's all the repairs comes up to above 100,000
Just want to say thank you for starting this channel....Love all the episodes.....
My mom and her husband found there was a really nasty type of asbestos underneath a tile floor on the bottom floor of their house. It was one of those things that made them really happy they where renting at the time as it was up to the landlord company to sort that one out. Took them 3 days, pretty much took out the tiles and about 2-3cm (give or take an inch) of the concrete flooring below it. That is not a bill you want to be faced with as a home owner.
Good job on using Safe n Sound. I used it when I built my home theatre. I also used an electric kitchen knife to cut it. Same knife I use to carve turkey. lol
I love that kitchen!
LOL, scared for no reason at all. It's only dangerous what you work on it. funny as hell.
Exactly this - people are always so panicked over little things. So many people see Asbestos and go "OH NO I'M ALREADY DEAD"
No, that's not true, asbestos causes other cancers besides asbestosis, it also causes permanant lung scarring damage as the tiny fibers are like sharp needles, every time you breath the "needles" are jabbing the tissues in your lungs, that causes scarring which causes fluid and loss of air exchanging surface area.
There are loads of lung cancers that people have had despite saying they NEVER smoked and asbestos contaminated vermiculite attic insulation is in an estimated 80 MILLION American homes and business attics alone. The dust is so fine that every time you open windows or doors or enter the attic, asbestos dust sifts down into the living space thru the tiniest cracks and gaps, thru wall switches and outlets too. Vacuum cleaners suck up the dust and force it out the exhaust as the fibers are small enough to go thru the filter bags.
The real panic idiocy os over lead paint, we've ALL had lead paint in our homes, you cant get away from it, just dont EAT the paint chips and you'll be fine! I work in an industry that uses a LOT of lead, with colleagues handling lead sheet all day every day, cutting, bending, filing, soldering, and they get blood tests frequently and its always negative- they WASH their hands after handling the lead and they dont EAT it! that's why they don't get lead poisoning, yet weve become so paranoid on it, its like seeing a picture of lead paint will poison you now LOL.
Another scam is the radon gas, I bought test kits and put them in my house, they came back making NO sense, I did another round of them, this time I stuck one right above the open sump pump pit and another upstairs on my desk, the claim is radon is heavier than air and settles in the low part of the basement, but the test results claimed the one on my desk was super high while the one over the sump pit was real low LOL!
Another red flag the test kit co's web site map, I looked up my test number and it showed me a map of my town with the claim that MY house, gee, what a coincidence- had THE highest number of any house in town!
That's when I pegeed that krap as another SCAM to get thousands to "remediate" nature. My basement is only 4 feet below ground, the whole floor is concreted with plastic under the concrete, concrete foundation wall to grade a foot thick. The former owner's son was 3 years old when they moved in here in 1942, he grew up here, he's 84 now, guess the "deadly" radon gas didn't bother him did it! Ive lived here 25 years
@@HobbyOrganist You need to do some research, Asbestos danger comes for aerosolized fibers, if you are not touching it or blowing it around the risk is very very low. More than 60% of houses in the USA has lots of asbestos in them.
@@dski8097 True dat. You yourself can **encapsulate** the asbestos. The easiest way is to spray paint it. Then don't mess with it. Or build a box around it after it has been stabilized.
Adding drama for tv purposes. Quite silly
Another great episode, thanks for uploading it and making it available.
Why do the inspectors get it so wrong so often. Even once is to much!!!
I wish I could hire Mike for all my renovations.
I wish you could come to Woodward, Oklahoma. I moved into a senior citizen Apt. I have a lot of cold area's. My apt is just on the other side of the maintenance garage. My floors are not flushed with the walls. I would appreciate it if you could see a way of coming here. I love watching your videos used to watch you on TV
A good giveaway that a pipe is insulated with asbestos, is seen by looking at the end or where there's a turn. Asbestos insulation looks like the cardboard that a box is made from. Corrugated sheet Asbestos was wrapped in several layers, then a jacket was applied over that.
Asbestos is typically safe only when its encapsulated and not disturbed in any way.
Once abated, the usual replacement is ASJ fiberglass insulation fitted over the pipes.
Producer: "Hey, Mike ... Make sure Kate wears that blue tank top, even when we are working overhead with stuff that disintegrates. It's good TV."
BTW: The electrician did NOT correct the double wiring under the staples.
Jackhammering old concrete under a wooden deck in the rain... that had to hurt.
Great job Mike and crew, very professional
As always..
Come fix America...
no
Not sure even Mike could make that right.
@@nzlemming I think he did one house in California and one in Louisiana and learned to run from this amalgam of federal, state and local building codes, regulations and bylaws.
37:42, cameraman is already inside the bathroom and Damon knocks on the door pretends he is not in there.
Leaves 2 people plus camera crew standing around in basement that had loose asbestos fibres > well done
It was really great they didn't have to tare down the house.
Asbestos wrap is fine the only time to worry about it is when you have to put in a boiler and update the plumbing if needed.
The best work in the home was the double hangers. 😁
Great video. I am left wondering who paid for all the work we watched get done.
The prodution company scouts for homes that need a great deal of repair. They choose a home, may even put in fake actors as the homeowners. The production company and the commercials, foot the bill for said production, labor and materials.
It varies with the job. But the homeowner often pays for part of it, and then the show pays for the rest. With any luck, they make enough off the show to cover it. In some of the episodes, Mike mentions that. He'll mention that he had the homeowner cover so much of the bill. And he took care of the rest. A good example would be the episode of Holmes on Homes where a crooked contractor was building fences for 50 families. Each family paid different amounts. Nothing yet, part of the job, or all of the job. So, Mike tells the families that he'll charge the homeowners what the contractor quoted them minus anything they had already paid him. I have also heard that there have been times where Mike has taken money out of his own pocket to help people when the show couldn't cover it. Although, in shows like this, it's not uncommon for materials or labor to be donated. If that happens, it can significantly reduce the cost.
Mike you and you crew do great work. We could use contractor s like you in Dover, Delaware.
They should use lifting straps on ALL the appliances being moved.
So, can we call you 'Super Mike?' (And the team... of course)
I wish Holmes could come to my home, it's 120yrs. old, I'm lucky to be writing this, my house almost went up 2 1/2 yrs. ago, gas leak copper pipe was used. So many other issues, I can't leave, I have to fix what I have, it's a nightmare.
My house is from 1840
This lady must of been a joy during the pandemic 😅
I wish they would itemize how much were all those repairs were
Question! If you find that the first inspector and codes were not up to code! Would the former inspector be held accountable and sued legally, bypassing their home repares and putting the family at a huge health risk?
Because of all the bad plumbing, electrical, insulation, and the first round of home repairs coast would really tick me off!
No it’s in fine print that you can not hold them liable
Elementary, my dear Watson!
Worked on a mesothelioma legal case at a job. Had been going on for 20 years and prob still going
Im just wondering if the house my parents had built in 1959 has it got asbestos in it - it has top of the line central heat & a/c in it - that is for 1959 - its a split level with the half level down stairs and the unfinished part is just that completely unfinished - not even insulation in the area directly under the kitchen and dining room
I would leave it all cover over the area and never think about it again
Asbestos, I've breath it in, from construction without any aid, they didn't have it back when. I'm fine. I guess it's a miracle.
Would I remove asbestos in open areas or during a Reno? Yes.
Would I tear out newly finished ceilings to remove undisturbed asbestos? No.
If the owners want the asbestos removed. Then that's what you do. It's not up to you to make that decision. They're the ones who paid for that home. If they want their home asbestos free then that's the job you do. You don't cut corners
If your house looks like it was built in the 30's and 40's in the GTA and Toronto Proper, all the way up to the mid 70's, your home has asbestos in it in some form or fasion.
The inspector said that given the age of the house it was possible to have asbestos but he didn't say anything about that this is suspicious and get it tested, he probably didn't see it.
Heh. Any asbestos from renovations in this area just gets tossed in our landfill.
Did anyone else notice that there was still double stapling?
I wonder how often he hits his head.... he is so tall!
Isn’t there supposed to be a certain clearance in front of an electrical panel? Especially where maintenance will most likely be done. Where I am in Oregon it’s 36” minimum in front and at least 24” wide. Putting the panel in a closet is a no-no.
Same in Canada, I think Mike did not want to deal with that and ignored it. This episode is not that old so I am sure that code existed that time too.
Looking at this, I’ve definitely touched asbestos….
in the U.K it is illegal for anyone without the correct licence to remove asbestos..
What is unfortunate is that home inspectors will get black listed if they bring out too many issues with homes they are tasked to inspect and that will make the most serious ones pariahs to the industry. Inspectors with dignity and integrity will not stand for that but they will suffer financially. Then we get the ones who do not really care and that's why this show exists, unfortunately.
Can they not just seal it into the walls, instead of ripping the basement to bits...
I know one thing, this would not happen in the U.K.
Building regs are much tighter.
Oh man he wasn’t exactly 100% honest if it was my home I would’ve taken off the asbestos professionally and re-wrapped it in insulation
did they put something back on the pipes now the boiler may have to run a lot more
I want to know why they spent a lot of money on a three-bedroom house only to spend almost all their time in the basement. Basements are never really nice.
why not close up that open space with the piping. The pipes are closed off aftrer that. No issues...?
Have to wonder if Mike and crew and all ancillary trades people may know any of those realtors and inspectors?
Ouch,
You can call and ask SSA if you are being investigated?
Holmes Slice does it again.
Here is a serious question or maybe its not serious but when you have to tear up the houses does the homeowner pay Mike for the repirs to the home or does the show cover most of the expense for the right to film the repairs and the damage?
Canadian Government funded this show.
That is why you wear safety glasses @ 39:00
Well, it's not a problem if you don't disturb it.
Lifting washers or stoves, the one on the bottom MUST LIFT IT UP FOR THE ONE ON TOP. ONE WORKER TEMPORARY LABOURER DID NOT CA, MY CENTRE OF BALANCE WAS OVER THE STOVE, AND ONLY THE PALMS OF BOTH HANDS WITH FRICTION KEPT IT FROMT FALLING ON THE ONE ON THE BOTTOM, I COULD FROM SECOND FLOOR NARROW STAIRS KILL HIM.
Damon is I want to see I want to know ? Seeing’s you love the I , we’ll do it yourself! If not it’s we need to see we need to know . What a self righteous person?
Vancouver Central Boiler, only boots, do not remember about glove. everything i saw wearing was put into DOUBLED ASBESTOR BAGS, CLEAR OUTER OK, DOUBLE BAGED.
I have one issue with Mike’s inspections. Many times he tears into structures of the home. When the inspection occurs, they don’t own the home. They can’t do that. There is an element of guess work in inspections
@@gunnytinman No, they aren't going to damage a house their client doesn't own.
So in the end, the asbestos here was a non issue because it was contained behind the ceiling. I would’ve sealed the open end and left it. Worry about it when you have to do the ceiling.
That ceiling joist is not sealed. Air in that ceiling joist circulates in the whole house. Problem here is that asbestos wrapping got disturbed and is worn out from age. Now the small particles are free in the ceiling cavity and can easily circulate around the house. I am sure these people did not breath enough to harm them but you never know what could happen in years. Best to get it out.
COOL
what I would like to know if they sued the inspection company who said this home was ok and if so what was the outcome.
Canadian electrical scares me.
I love how this couple were consistently holding hands at every opportunity.
Haha…it used to be normal….We need to bring it back! 👍👍😁
Yeah, that dude lucked out...She's a real keeper!
Ok bud it happens remember that it makes for a good TV show but in world of reality it would be a pain in the ass come on that many people who are there trying to get shit done with all the drama of it really seriously dude get a reality check
@@rodneyhopper22 I'm not sure how your comment relates to the ones above..
Yes you can die from asbestos. My Dad was in the Navy 30 years and died at age 55 years old from that stuff
"I did not read about this in the report" Is he battle cry in this episode.
Forgot to mention the stab lok panel zzz
How much does it cost to have asbestos removed from a house?
