00:01Whoa-ho-ho-ho!
00:03And we're off!
00:04Ooh, baby.
00:05Today we are meeting Amy and Diane.
00:07We bought the camp in 2007.
00:09It was an old, mouse-infested camp.
00:13We need space, and that bathroom being right smack dab in the middle is uncomfortable.
00:18Look at this.
00:19No jacks under it.
00:20Wow.
00:21It was not done correctly.
00:22Ah! Chase!
00:23We're gonna test how wobbly it is.
00:25Ah!
00:26Done.
00:27Ah!
00:28Drop it!
00:29Oh, Pop.
00:30Donut.
00:31Drop it!
00:32Everyone was a little nervous.
00:33Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.
00:35Yay!
00:36This is gold, baby.
00:37Gold!
00:38Woo!
00:47Whoa!
00:50Whoa-ho-ho-ho!
00:54And we're off!
00:57Whoa, there goes Ryan.
00:58This is amazing.
00:59Speed demon.
01:00Ooh, baby.
01:04Hey, Chase.
01:05What?
01:06Where are we going?
01:07We're taking three-wheelers to Wilson Pond.
01:08Woo!
01:09Ew, baby!
01:10Hello, friends.
01:11In Winthrop May.
01:13Whoa!
01:14Good day for a ride.
01:15Sun came out.
01:16Those back roads in Maine are made for cruising.
01:17Yeah.
01:18Go out for a nice day drive.
01:19Zip around.
01:20They zip around.
01:21They were really fun.
01:22So we are headed down in there to meet Amy and Diane.
01:23One of them is deathly afraid of mice.
01:24I can't remember which one.
01:25Definitely a deathly.
01:26Definitely a deathly.
01:27Definitely a deathly.
01:28Definitely deathly afraid.
01:29Oh!
01:30So, yeah, they've done quite a bit of work to the place, but now they need some work done
01:32that they can't quite tackle themselves, so we're going to help them.
01:33All right, let's do it.
01:34All right, let's do it.
01:36Okay.
01:37Let's go.
01:38Okay, let's do it.
01:53Newden Ancientкі.
01:54Is this over there?
02:03Yeah.
02:04Okay. Neutral. Parking brake. Off.
02:10So this is the camp.
02:11Oh, doesn't look in bad shape at all.
02:13Yeah, they've owned the camp since the mid-2000s.
02:16Camps on the water.
02:18Mid-2000s? Wouldn't mid-2000s be 2050?
02:22It hasn't happened yet.
02:24I think it's supposed to be the mid-aughts.
02:26What's this, an addition?
02:27This might be the addition?
02:29It's really hard to tell.
02:30That's funky.
02:31It looks like it was a really small camp from out back.
02:33Wow, it's high up there.
02:34It is.
02:35You're way up there.
02:37Hello.
02:39Hey.
02:40Good morning.
02:41Good morning.
02:42How are you?
02:43Good. How's it going?
02:44I'm Amy.
02:45And I'm Diane.
02:46Good to see ya.
02:47Yeah. Hi.
02:48We use this camp primarily for friends and family gatherings.
02:52So what do you guys think?
02:53Yeah? You like it?
02:54So quiet.
02:55Isn't it?
02:56Peaceful.
02:57Yeah.
02:58It's just paradise.
02:59Give us a little history about the camp.
03:01So we bought the camp in 2007.
03:04Okay.
03:05And it was an old mouse infested camp.
03:08It was just kind of dark.
03:10Yeah.
03:11I did hear someone is deathly afraid of mice.
03:12She loves mice.
03:13Yeah.
03:14We should have a camp cat.
03:15Yeah, I should have a camp cat.
03:16No, they bring them to you.
03:17Anyway.
03:19So yeah, we've redone basically the entire thing.
03:22There's a couple of walls that are still brown, and you can tell those are the original walls.
03:26It had, you know, like a really old-fashioned deck, right?
03:29So we redid that.
03:30We did the railings.
03:31And then inside, we did a bunch of stuff and started foam insulating.
03:36So kind of picking away at it.
03:37Yeah.
03:38Yes.
03:39We have not had critters since we filled it with foam.
03:40Well, let's go inside and check out what you're talking about.
03:42Yeah, okay.
03:43Let's check it out.
03:44Cute.
03:45This is cute.
03:47Oh, wow.
03:48It's kind of a surfer feel with like the color choices.
03:51The colors, yeah.
03:56So those stairs go up to a tiny little loft.
03:58Yeah.
03:59Then there's one bedroom.
04:02And then another bedroom here.
04:03And bedroom back there.
04:05We need space.
04:07Storage.
04:08We have no storage.
04:09No storage.
04:10And that bathroom being right smack dab in the middle is uncomfortable with guests.
04:14Okay.
04:15In the morning, you know, someone has to say, everyone outside, I need 10 minutes.
04:19Okay.
04:20I get that.
04:21So it's like the private bathroom area.
04:23So yeah, we want the bathroom back there and then add a new bedroom.
04:27But we would want like an entry on that new bedroom going out to the driveway somewhere.
04:31So we can take the dog out in the morning as he's very anxious.
04:34What's the dog?
04:35He's afraid of people.
04:36Okay.
04:37What's his name?
04:38Jeffrey.
04:39Jeffrey.
04:40My boy.
04:41Well, let us check out and we'll meet you on the outside.
04:43See you in a few.
04:44All right.
04:45Sounds good.
04:47I really like that.
04:48And you can see they're really funky and funny.
04:49So these bedrooms are staying.
04:50Yeah.
04:51I mean, it's-
04:52That bedroom's adorable.
04:53It was recently sheetrocked.
04:54It's all spray foam.
04:55And they did all those projects themselves.
04:56All right.
04:57So this is the addition.
04:58That's just how they connected them together.
05:01It's like the she shed hallway.
05:02Yeah.
05:03Yes.
05:04Look, it's all there.
05:05She said that you can store stuff up there.
05:07Oh, yeah.
05:08There's a mop up.
05:09There's a thing.
05:10Look in here.
05:11Look up here.
05:12All the paddles.
05:13The paddles are up above the bed.
05:14Yeah.
05:15They've got a really unique style.
05:16We've got some cute furniture to work with up in this place.
05:19There's a lot of fun stuff in there.
05:21It gives me a good idea of what they're looking for and kind of the feel that they're going
05:26for.
05:27What do you think?
05:28Bright and funky.
05:29Bright and funky.
05:30Yeah.
05:31Tell us what's going on the outside.
05:32There's so much wasted space here.
05:34There is.
05:35You're talking about storage.
05:36We need storage, but...
05:37You need a new deck.
05:38Yeah.
05:39Yeah, for sure.
05:40I mean, you can look and see where these aren't pressure treated.
05:43Right.
05:44There's no gaps.
05:45It's all moldy.
05:46Exactly.
05:47Yeah.
05:48It looks like you started a handrail.
05:49Yeah.
05:50We'd really like safer egress to the water.
05:52And the patio, if we could have like a bigger space here, flattened out a little bit.
05:56So that we could come down here while you're cooking and enjoying and play cornhole.
06:00Yeah.
06:01Sounds like it's right up our alley.
06:02First, we'll build an addition that will house the new main bedroom.
06:05Then we'll turn one of the existing bedrooms into the new bathroom, and the old bathroom
06:09becomes storage space.
06:10We'll also widen the hallway for better flow.
06:13On the exterior, we'll add a new roof, a new deck, new side entrance for their dog, windows
06:18and siding where needed.
06:19We'll have Francis improve their egress on the water side and fix up the patio.
06:24How much do you have to put into these renovations?
06:27We're thinking about $75,000.
06:29Okay.
06:30When are you looking to have the project completed by?
06:33Our 10-year wedding anniversary is coming up July 18th.
06:36We're the 19th.
06:38No way!
06:39How many years for you guys?
06:40Be 11 glorious years.
06:42Oh, nice answer.
06:44Oh, here we go.
06:45Seems like yesterday.
06:46And life's amazing.
06:47It's about nine weeks.
06:49I think we've got a really good idea of what you're looking for.
06:52We just need a set of keys and we can get going.
06:55I have them right here.
06:56Perfect.
06:57Awesome.
06:58The one thing I keep saying to people is camp is a lot of work.
07:00All right.
07:01Thank you, guys.
07:02Thanks.
07:03Bye.
07:04And the stuff that they're going to be doing for us should eliminate a lot of it.
07:06And I want to drive down the driveway and go, ah, finally.
07:09Just relax.
07:10What we wanted.
07:11We can just chill.
07:12All right.
07:13Let's call the guys.
07:14Don't forget.
07:15Chase, the guys.
07:16Don't forget to call the guys, Chase.
07:17I'm obsessed with the guys.
07:27What are we getting into today?
07:29Black flies.
07:30Black fly season.
07:31If we walk past enough, they can't catch us.
07:33So it is demo day at Camp Upta.
07:38I like the size of it.
07:39Yeah.
07:40Today is really just about poking around.
07:44Water is off.
07:46I'm coming up with a plan.
07:47Morning.
07:48What are you doing that on your head?
07:50You're a Maine girl.
07:51You're tougher than that.
07:52Maine girls don't like bug bites.
07:54You know, today is the buggiest day so far.
07:57And I know I look funny, but I do not care.
08:00I take all the precautions I need to keep these black flies away from me.
08:04Those bites hurt and they swell.
08:06Oh, I'm wearing it.
08:07I'm going to save this cabinet.
08:09Yes, if possible.
08:10And this is way better than what the black flies would do to me.
08:18There you go.
08:19This is going to get your steps in job.
08:24Hey!
08:25Don't look too close.
08:30Hey, you're a big fat boy.
08:35Is there really a mouse in here?
08:37You guys do not understand how petrified of mice she is.
08:40We should have a camp cat.
08:41No, they bring them to you.
08:43Amy, you might want to fast forward through this segment, okay?
08:45Okay, bud.
08:46You got to vacate.
08:47Just a little heads up.
08:49Come on.
08:50Come on.
08:52Time to leave.
08:53Yeah.
08:54Before we came, they've taken tons of measures
08:56to make sure that there were no mice.
09:00Come on.
09:02Unfortunately, the mice couldn't.
09:05Attaboy.
09:06He's gone now.
09:08Beautiful.
09:09But we're going to fix it.
09:10Don't you worry.
09:11The irony of it.
09:18Where's this wood going?
09:19Outside in the wood pile.
09:21Yep.
09:22So what were they used here?
09:24Is this this old exterior Belgrade siding?
09:27Where are you guys going?
09:29You stay here.
09:31We're just getting this ripped apart.
09:35Maddie's inside working on the bathroom,
09:37getting that all emptied out.
09:39And then we're going to get rid of this whole bathroom area
09:41and open up this front room.
09:44Did anyone see this note?
09:46It's addressed to Chase.
09:48What does it say?
09:49Wishless.
09:51Wishless.
09:52Space to read in new bedroom.
09:54They want a door that thwaps.
09:56Thwaps.
09:57They want a thwapping door.
09:58A thwapping?
09:59Thwap.
10:00A flap?
10:01A slapping?
10:02Slap.
10:03Flap?
10:04T-H-W-A-P.
10:06Thwapping.
10:07Thwapping.
10:08Doesn't even sound like a right word to say.
10:09Thwapping.
10:10You think it's a real word?
10:11You think they made that word up?
10:12It's like a tongue twister.
10:15Thwapping.
10:16Thwapping.
10:17You guys, thwapping refers to the act of striking or slapping with a loud heavy impact.
10:23It is a real word.
10:24That's punky, punky.
10:25I literally woke up last night thinking about this cabin because the deck is huge.
10:29The camp is pretty high up.
10:31So I know they want storage.
10:33So I was wondering if we took like this bay right here.
10:36Yeah.
10:37Built a wall.
10:38That's going to help give it so much more strength.
10:40And then, you know, they could have storage under here for that part.
10:44Yeah.
10:45I'm going to go measure the deck.
10:48What was it that way?
10:4925?
10:50A little over 26.
10:51I know Amy and Diane really love the deck.
10:53Well, I got some feelers out to work with some companies for like some nice panels.
10:57Because it's all about the view up there.
10:59I think I have a company that's going to give us the glass panels.
11:01Because they really like to be able to see through.
11:03And this is one of the highest decks.
11:04It feels like in the trees.
11:05So we're going to really try to retain that view.
11:07Coming out.
11:21Okay.
11:26This place has been hacked together.
11:27Oh, pieced.
11:28Yeah.
11:29What are your thoughts, bud?
11:30I say we take it right to that window.
11:32Yeah.
11:33And we're coming all the way out to here, correct?
11:34All the way up to there.
11:35Which elevation of floors are we going to go with?
11:38We're going to go with that.
11:39The lower one?
11:40Yep.
11:41Okay.
11:42And then that window will become a doorway?
11:44Yep.
11:45Into the bathroom.
11:46So there will be a doorway there, a doorway here.
11:48Yep.
11:49Out onto a small deck.
11:50To go down to a small deck.
11:51A small deck, private area for there, Don.
11:53Yep.
11:54The plan is the back bedroom is now going to turn into the bathroom.
11:58These might have been the only thing that was holding this together.
12:00Look.
12:01And then we're going to add a floor system.
12:05It's the three L's.
12:06Live, laugh, love, Chase.
12:07You need some live, laugh, love in your life.
12:09And that will be the new bedroom.
12:12Get ready.
12:13Go!
12:16Go get it!
12:17Way down the hill!
12:18Good kick, Ashley.
12:19Don't take that toilet out yet.
12:21Don't use it.
12:22I cut underneath.
12:25Where are these no good paddle boards?
12:27That one definitely does not look good.
12:29Okay.
12:30You want this one to make something out of?
12:31I'll put this to the side.
12:32Second thought, I thought it was hard.
12:34Honey, I think the hard ones are good.
12:36I think these aren't good because they have holes in them.
12:38Hammock.
12:39You can make a hammock out of it.
12:41We found a couple paddle boards today that they said were broken.
12:45Help me.
12:46So I'd like to try to make a custom piece out of them.
12:50Chase, we're done.
12:51Great.
12:52You got a plan?
12:53We got a plan.
12:54New main bedroom right there.
12:56Private entrance off that side.
12:58Private entrance into the bathroom.
13:00This gets opened up.
13:01And then deck comes off, gets replaced, and re-secured underneath.
13:05Storage, storage, storage, and mice-proof.
13:07That's the two things to remember.
13:09All right.
13:10Good job.
13:11Very good.
13:12All right.
13:13Let's get out of here.
13:14All right.
13:23Well, good morning.
13:24Good morning.
13:25Grab some paddle boards.
13:26Today, we are at the back 40.
13:29Chase brought over the paddle boards from the camp.
13:33How'd I get this?
13:34Pull it!
13:36You think we're being crazy?
13:38No, not at all.
13:39We had the idea of making some sort of hammock or a swing.
13:43You know you're taking off the fin?
13:44Yeah.
13:45Don't we need it for stabilization?
13:48Like sharks?
13:49Put it on our backs.
13:52All right.
13:53Pick up.
13:54I think we just have to see how stable it is.
13:56I'll go get a strap.
13:57First, we weren't sure if it would even work.
14:00If we would sit on it, we'd just flip over.
14:02Watch this pull the whole place down.
14:06Go for it.
14:09Scared.
14:14Will you?
14:15Yeah.
14:20How do you feel?
14:21Easiest special project ever.
14:23Do you feel it?
14:24I think it'll work.
14:25I think it's a great idea.
14:26How do you feel those handles are holding?
14:28I would take a board on the front and on the back
14:30and loop it through that.
14:32Okay.
14:33Let's do that.
14:34Now, we have to get the necessary parts.
14:36To be continued.
14:37Yeah.
14:38It's nice.
14:39If not, then we will find something else to do.
14:40Nice footstool.
14:43Ah!
14:44Chase!
14:45We've got to test how wobbly it is.
14:47Excuse me.
14:48It's not that one.
14:49Ah!
14:50This is going to be a thing.
14:51It's going to work.
14:57Are you good?
14:58It's pretty straight.
14:59You've got 257 and 38.
15:03So, today we're here at Brown Camp on Wilson Pond.
15:07We're going to add a floor system,
15:09and that will be the new master bedroom.
15:13Squeeze it tight.
15:14Now, we're ready to install the subfloor.
15:18Hey, hey!
15:19On a nail.
15:20It's 1x12 chiplap sheathen.
15:23Once that's done, then we can start framing the walls.
15:26And then we can start sheathing them.
15:28Just like that, kitty cat.
15:32We're going to start cutting some of the patterns for the rafters,
15:35since we've got all the material here for that.
15:37Pretty productive day.
15:38The guys did a great job.
15:55They got the deck all framed in.
15:57Oh, yeah, buddy.
15:59We're going to be working on decking for the new deck out front.
16:04Zippy-dee-doo-dah.
16:06Zippy-dee-doo.
16:07Put these staircases in place.
16:09You want to bring it this way a little?
16:11Oh, would you look at that.
16:14Just look at it.
16:16Man, glitter.
16:30It's what a beautiful morning.
16:32The past few weeks at Camp Opta.
16:34The new addition for the new bedroom has been built.
16:37The new deck on the front has been built.
16:39The old one was torn off, replaced.
16:41So we'll get a couple people on the beam inside.
16:44The big goal today is to get the roof rafters finished
16:50and get the new collar tie in the main living area.
16:57And Doug's here to rough and plumbing.
17:02There.
17:03We got a urinal on a job site.
17:04It's a good aim.
17:05Ugh.
17:08Nice.
17:09Making darn sure that that weight gets transferred down from above.
17:12A situation like this, you know, we got an old cabin.
17:15Everything's plumbing level.
17:16We did our tolerance.
17:17Right, Jedi?
17:19These old cans.
17:20When you're marrying the old with the new,
17:21it's all about transferring the weight.
17:23One more for West G!
17:26Sometimes it works out.
17:29Woo!
17:30Transferring the ridge pole to the new beam to the floor system.
17:33Done.
17:34All right.
17:35So are we replacing this header?
17:40It's just two by fours on edge, that.
17:42Oh, I know.
17:43So we got some issues.
17:44Jedi Art and I were tasked with replacing the collar tie,
17:48getting the new beam in.
17:49But it wasn't that easy.
17:50Top 100 rules of building is,
17:52don't have a carrying beam on top of a door,
17:55unless you have a serious header above it.
17:57It was two two by fours.
17:59Our style is four by six hemlock.
18:03We got to make sure it's all going to work
18:05and not damage the new door.
18:08Beautiful deck.
18:09Yikes.
18:10Look at this header.
18:12No jacks under it.
18:14Wow.
18:15That's not good.
18:16So a header like this, it carries the weight,
18:18knowing there's another stud called Jack right there.
18:20They're just using fasteners.
18:21It's not good.
18:22It's not enough to carry that weight.
18:24It was not done correctly.
18:27Chase!
18:28What?
18:29We need you down here.
18:30It's not lunch time.
18:35Chase!
18:37What?
18:38Calling in the budget, man.
18:39We got, we got, we need you.
18:41I figured do rafters and valleys,
18:43which is on a roof,
18:44or work downstairs with Jedi doing the beam.
18:47I thought I chose the right one, but I didn't.
18:49He'll make the final decision.
18:50Calling the budget.
18:51On how we do it.
18:52It turned into quite a process.
18:53All right, you ready?
18:54Yeah.
18:55Right now as this sits, you could fit a new door in here.
18:58Yeah.
18:59But you could see all kinds of things wrong with this.
19:01So right here.
19:02You never put it.
19:03This header is like four two by fours flat.
19:06It's cut right there.
19:07And there's no jack.
19:08Everything holding this, all the weight right here,
19:10is the fasteners.
19:12Pop those out and the thing is,
19:13is that going to carry that weight and not pinch the door?
19:15So we're going to cut this up to here for now.
19:17Get a proper header in.
19:18Fabricate some carrying beam across.
19:21That's a good idea.
19:22It's been a long time since you told me I had a good idea.
19:23This is awesome.
19:24Now he's out.
19:25He's leaving.
19:26No clocking out.
19:27Chase told me I had a good idea.
19:36We have to put a glass door in here.
19:38It doesn't have a lot of structure.
19:39And we have a four by six hemlock with collar tie,
19:42which has more weight.
19:43So we have to find a way to distribute all the weight correctly.
19:46That includes installing proper jack studs to carry the new beam.
19:54Beautiful day here on Wilson Pond.
19:57Oh, this looks nice.
19:58Oh, that's really nice.
19:59No more tripping for them.
20:01Walking up to camp.
20:02The addition is on.
20:03It is large.
20:04The deck is awesome.
20:06Hello, dogs.
20:07This is my welcoming party.
20:09It is way better than the old deck.
20:11But unfortunately, we are in the thick of black fly season.
20:15So you want me to wear shorts.
20:17And you said there are no bugs.
20:18And I already have a bunch of bug bites.
20:20Fewer bugs up there.
20:21Great.
20:26So we've got all of our rafters installed.
20:30Now we're just working on filling in our sheathing.
20:32So it looks like you guys are marrying three roof lines together.
20:36Seems like a pretty straightforward job.
20:38I'll be right here if you need more boards.
20:40Oh, jeez.
20:41Bugs.
20:42There are not fewer bugs up here.
20:45There seem to be more bugs up here.
20:47All right.
20:48185 and a half.
20:49Ashley!
20:50Hello?
20:51Just had to go.
20:53All right.
20:55No bugs.
20:56Hopefully I'll be able to take off my sweatshirt.
20:58Sit down before I go and bug everybody else.
21:03So we got both sides all done.
21:08Sheathed.
21:09Papered.
21:10We're moving right along.
21:12Nice.
21:16General rule of thumb, for every foot of opening, you want an inch of header.
21:20So we've got just under a six foot opening.
21:22So we've got about five and a half here.
21:24And then we've got an inch and a half in the top plate already.
21:27So we're going to have about six and a half inches of header for just the right amount.
21:35That is 210 and a quarter.
21:37Okay.
21:38Jedi and Art are going to prep the beam.
21:40We're going to do a half lap for structure.
21:42And hopefully she'll go in.
21:45Carving a turkey.
21:46Boom!
21:47Yeah.
21:48Let's just...
21:49We're doing it.
21:50Let's get in victory before lunch.
21:51We're doing it.
21:52Grab a hold.
21:55Okay.
21:56All right.
21:57To me.
21:58A little bit of force.
21:59I'm not holding tall enough.
22:00Yeah.
22:01Let's go down a little bit.
22:02Hold on.
22:03Down just a little bit until we get over there.
22:04You like it, Art?
22:05Oh, baby.
22:06Keep going like a glove.
22:07I'm already doing the victory dance.
22:09Yep.
22:10There she goes.
22:11Come on.
22:12Oh!
22:13Yes!
22:14Nice job.
22:18All right.
22:19Now I'm just cutting up an upright post for this beam that we got in.
22:23Wah wah.
22:24Wah wah.
22:25We're gonna tie this into the ceiling just to keep that collar tie elevated and get a little
22:30bit more support into the ceiling.
22:32And it ties the whole place together.
22:34Nice job.
22:35Very well done.
22:36You know, with all the issues we came up with, things started to take a turn for the better.
22:40We got that thing before lunch.
22:41It was a small victory and great for morale.
22:43Ashley!
22:44Ashley!
22:45Seems like you didn't do anything, did you?
22:48Can I pass some boards up to the guys on the roof?
22:50What is the point of this, Fiend?
22:52You didn't have it up before.
22:54You bet.
22:55All right.
22:56I've had enough of this talk.
22:57Time to go.
22:58Love.
22:59Bugs.
23:00I need to use the pole to bring it back.
23:13Today we're here at Wilson Pond at Brown Camp and things are moving right along.
23:18We have some local tree guys cleaning up the view and the guys are up putting the metal roof on.
23:28Jaybird and I are working on all the windows and some siding.
23:33We should get it done pretty quickly.
23:37It's gonna look great when we're finished.
23:40The bedroom has its own entrance off to the side to accommodate their dog.
23:44Chase asked me to put the windows facing the driveway up as high as we could so the dog can't see out.
23:49See?
23:51It's gonna be fantastic.
24:03All right.
24:04This side's done.
24:05We've got the exterior siding.
24:07All the windows and doors are in.
24:09Flies are biting at me.
24:11Inside, the spray foam's been done.
24:13The electrical's been done.
24:15Yeah, buddy.
24:18The boys have done a great job getting all the pine up.
24:22With the spray foam, we've tried to make it as mouse-proof as possible.
24:27This is a window for this bedroom looking out.
24:30This area right here is what we added on.
24:3316 by 16 bedroom.
24:35Vaulted ceiling so it feels big in here.
24:38They have a big private bathroom.
24:40We also have an access hatch for storage up overhead, which the homeowners really wanted.
24:45Wasn't that...
24:48Horseflies are horrible right now.
24:51Things are looking great at Camp Upta.
25:01Roof is on underneath the front deck.
25:03We added that wall to give it some stability and increased storage space.
25:09The new bedroom is framed in, roofed in, insulated.
25:12Pined in.
25:13New bathroom where the old bedroom was.
25:15Guy was here to work on, plot named.
25:17Everything's looking good in here.
25:19Closet's framed up.
25:20Just need to start putting everything back together.
25:22They were going to work on the glass paneled rail system.
25:25Getting supports in and getting them up.
25:27Dude, those are nice.
25:29The rep should be here any second now, but...
25:31Awesome.
25:32They sent us the creme de la creme.
25:33Lights and everything.
25:34Lights?
25:35Glass railing with lights.
25:36Yeah.
25:37I've been talking to my buddy Ryan for a while.
25:38Oh, there he is.
25:39Hey, Ryan.
25:40How's it going, buddy?
25:41Good.
25:42How are you doing, Ryan?
25:43How are we doing something together?
25:44And this was the perfect cabin.
25:45Glad you're here.
25:46We've kind of been looking over everything.
25:47But if you could just give us an overview of what's going on, we'd really appreciate
25:50it.
25:51Yeah.
25:52Yeah.
25:53So we're going to install some IG railings.
25:54Some nice illuminated glass.
25:55It's half-inch thick, high-strength, essentially hockey glass that we're going to be putting
25:59on this.
26:00I'm going to check you into it later.
26:01Yeah.
26:02It's a really quick and easy installation process, and the lights come right up through the base
26:06mounts.
26:07Really?
26:08Yeah.
26:09So we're just prepping this framing.
26:10We're going to add two more 2x10s to the sides.
26:14And we're going to add two more rim joists on the outside.
26:15Is that correct?
26:16We do.
26:17One rim joists all around.
26:18We do see we need to add more framing for that, because what you call spigots, they
26:19have four screws going, right?
26:20Four and three eights.
26:21Yeah.
26:22Okay.
26:23And then in the center of that, we have to drill all the way through for our wiring for
26:25our lights.
26:26Yeah.
26:27Okay.
26:28Plug and play for those.
26:29Okay.
26:30Plug and play.
26:31So we're just prepping this framing.
26:34We're going to add two more 2x10s to the sides.
26:38That will support our posts for this glass railing that we're putting in.
26:43Will they fit?
26:44Am I going to be able to get them in?
26:46Yep.
26:47Come on.
26:52All right.
26:53We'll get the second one in, and then lag them through the side.
26:58Gotcha.
26:59Yep.
27:00Sweating.
27:01It was not in the contract.
27:05When are you going to turn the humidity down?
27:08Uh, September?
27:13Marvelous.
27:19Come on.
27:25Marvelous.
27:27It's up to closer to done.
27:28Oh, my.
27:29Oh, it popped.
27:30Yep.
27:31Oh, my.
27:32Doggy!
27:33That was exciting.
27:34Doggy!
27:35Well, I filled it with water to test it to make sure it doesn't leak.
27:50Sorry.
27:51What's that?
27:52I think we'll get some scrap lumber to lay on now so I'm not in the mud.
27:57Beautiful.
27:58All right.
27:59Let me start putting in the railing.
28:00Ashley!
28:01Morning.
28:02Chase.
28:03What?
28:04Thanks.
28:05Beautiful day here on Wilson Pond.
28:07Today, I was here helping out with the railing a little bit.
28:08I'd like to see some glass in here.
28:09Okay.
28:10Ready for the glass.
28:11You ready for glass?
28:12Yeah.
28:1342, 45.
28:14Here we are, sir.
28:15Those railings are half an inch thick, huge plates.
28:18Oh, look at that nice glass.
28:19Oh, it's beautiful.
28:20It's thick.
28:21It'll get fingerprints on it.
28:22Safe as could be and literally give you the best you could have.
28:24All right.
28:25All right.
28:26All right.
28:27All right.
28:28All right.
28:29All right.
28:30All right.
28:31All right.
28:32All right.
28:33All right.
28:34I'm going to step on it.
28:35Safe as could be and literally give you the best you could imagine.
28:37Donut.
28:38Drop it.
28:39Do we slide it in the sides or through the top?
28:42Through the top right down center.
28:44So we need someone here holding these out.
28:46Yeah.
28:47Okay.
28:48The brackets that they'll use, they call them spigots.
28:50In addition to holding the glass, they also have LED lights inserted in them that you
28:53can change to different colors at night.
28:56Am I doing this right?
28:58Everyone was a little intrepid, a little nervous.
29:01All right.
29:02All right.
29:03I'm going to step right in between the two of you.
29:05Yeah.
29:06Watch the love handles.
29:07Yeah.
29:08Don't hit my love handles.
29:09Up, up, up, up.
29:10Okay.
29:11Mine's good.
29:12Up, up, up, up.
29:13But those things are lagged right in.
29:15That thing's not going anywhere.
29:16And with the clips and stuff, it really comes together.
29:18I like that.
29:19Down.
29:20Okay.
29:21Down.
29:22On my side.
29:23Oh, beautiful.
29:24Keep coming to me, guys.
29:25Keep coming.
29:26Slide it over.
29:27Right.
29:28There.
29:29Okay.
29:30We're going to be experts by launch.
29:33They thought they had a nice view before that railing.
29:41Ugh!
29:42Grab the paddle board.
29:44Let's make a hammock, Chase.
29:46We are going to attempt again to get this into a hammock.
29:50Should I get to test out the hammock?
29:53What is the plan?
29:54Chase asked me to bring two pipes and the paddle board.
29:57I had no idea what he was planning on doing.
30:00None.
30:01So we're not going to hang it from this anymore?
30:03Feed that through there.
30:06Just do the rivets or whatever these things are called.
30:10Chase never will explain anything.
30:12Just kind of have to follow along with him.
30:13Tie knot on the end of it.
30:15Then you pick up what he's doing.
30:18Oh, is it going to hang from that?
30:19Yeah.
30:20Oh, I gotcha.
30:22We've got one side.
30:23Too bad we didn't have another one of those right here.
30:26I know.
30:27What if we run a pipe through it?
30:29Why?
30:30But he never will explain anything.
30:31He just goes.
30:34And then it usually turns out great.
30:36Hold it right in the little divvies.
30:38Might as well.
30:39Before we just put some straps on the ends
30:41and tied them to the handles.
30:43Ah!
30:44Chase!
30:45We've got to test how wobbly it is.
30:46This time, we kind of came up with a different idea.
30:49Chase put a pipe through one end
30:50and attached it to the paddle board.
30:52Ow!
30:53That horsefly just bit me.
30:55We took the paddle board.
30:56Chase brought.
30:57Get out of here!
31:02Ah!
31:03That was attacking me.
31:04You explain it.
31:06We just took a metal pipe
31:08and used some plumber's tape.
31:10Black copper wire with holes in it.
31:13Where the fins lock in was a little bit harder plastic,
31:16so we screwed right into that.
31:18Okay.
31:20You love it?
31:21Love it.
31:22So all we need now is ratchet straps.
31:24I don't want the gross ones from the back of Chase's car.
31:27I am going to pick up some nice new ones.
31:30Nice job!
31:31We did it!
31:32Again!
31:33Again!
31:34This time it's a lot more stable.
31:37Did a good job on the railing.
31:39It's safer than their homemade cable rail.
31:41Just got to do a good clean up and get Ashley's crew in here
31:45and they can finish the camp off.
31:47Nice work today.
31:48Good job, guys.
31:49What a hell.
31:50Let's go!
31:51Let's go!
31:52Let's go!
31:53Let's go!
31:54Hey, we're at Camp Upta.
31:55Save for those things.
31:56Yep.
31:57There we go.
31:58All right.
31:59Today there's wind, beautiful breeze, and there are no bugs.
32:00Cute!
32:01I love it.
32:02Great!
32:03All right.
32:04Today there's wind, beautiful breeze, and there are no bugs.
32:09Cute. I love it.
32:10Great.
32:12These camp owners have a unique style.
32:14It's fun.
32:15Lots of pops of colors about the whole place.
32:17Lots of different patterns.
32:18The bathroom is really nice compared to what they had before.
32:21Here's the last test.
32:22Does this door thwap?
32:26Thwap.
32:27It is their anniversary, and we have the camp ready to give back.
32:32One last thing to do.
32:35Hear ye, hear ye.
32:37Any vice on the premises, vacay immediately.
32:41Have a good life somewhere else.
32:45So Frances came in, put in new posts.
32:47Made the pathway down to the water safer.
32:50Made a patio.
32:51Oh, yeah.
32:53We had nine weeks, $75,000, to add a bedroom, fix up the deck,
33:00fix up the interior, make more space, make more storage space,
33:03and make the camp mouse-proof for Amy and Diane.
33:05They're actually coming by water, so let's go to wait down by the dock.
33:08So we're almost there.
33:10Eee!
33:11All right, there they are.
33:12Is that the neighbor?
33:13No.
33:14No, that's Ashley.
33:15Woo!
33:16Hi!
33:17Ashley!
33:18There you go.
33:19I see you!
33:20This is gold, baby.
33:21Gold.
33:22Hi!
33:30Yay!
33:32Woo!
33:34Oh, my gosh.
33:35Look at the trees.
33:36Oh, wow.
33:38Paddle board.
33:39Look at the dead paddle board.
33:40It's a hammock now.
33:41Yay!
33:42Yay!
33:43I'm tearing up.
33:44When I saw it, I was like, wow.
33:48I was very excited.
33:49Thank you, guys.
33:50Happy anniversary.
33:52Happy anniversary.
33:53Yay!
33:55The amount of branches that they took down.
33:56Yes.
33:57Clearing of that and the difference that that's made.
33:59Head on up.
34:00I love the hammock.
34:04Was that your idea?
34:05It was a...
34:06Wow.
34:07It was a joint effort.
34:08Group effort.
34:09I guess we don't have to buy any gifts or any cards for our anniversary.
34:11You fixed a post.
34:13Oh, look.
34:14Look at those things.
34:15I fall a lot.
34:17I fall a lot.
34:18There's a firm rope there that's just easier to walk up.
34:21It's gonna be so much better.
34:22Oh, oh.
34:23Look at these.
34:24Oh, the patio.
34:25That's cool.
34:27You guys, this is incredible.
34:29I love this.
34:31Yeah, that's incredible.
34:32Nice and clean.
34:33Yes.
34:34All prostituted, all solid.
34:35We added that wall in there for a few different reasons.
34:38Yeah.
34:39One, to make more storage space.
34:41And two, to give it some stability because it had all the cross bracing before.
34:45Yeah.
34:46A nice, solid wall.
34:47Did the same thing.
34:48You can put shelving on it.
34:49No crooked stairs?
34:50No crooked stairs.
34:52Holy cow.
34:53Look at that.
34:54Oh my gosh.
34:55Yeah, just much smoother entrance.
34:57Yeah.
34:58Not as steep a step.
34:59Nice, safe, solid stairs onto the new deck.
35:02Just being able to get up onto the deck is so much easier now.
35:05Yeah.
35:06The steps were so steep and that first step was just a bear.
35:09Oh.
35:10So yeah, you said you wanted to be able to see the lake from the deck.
35:13I mean, and it's solid.
35:14Wow.
35:15That is awesome.
35:16This is incredible.
35:17So this was a new for us too.
35:19We've never done anything like this.
35:20Wow.
35:21But now you know how.
35:22Now we know how.
35:23Totally see-through, totally safe, totally solid.
35:26I love it.
35:27Yeah.
35:28We need to make sure the deck was solid so it's all new.
35:31Yeah.
35:32All new framing, posts, bracing.
35:34It's so solid.
35:35It's so solid.
35:36I got to tell you the best part about it.
35:38At nighttime, there are lights that come with it and it'll light up in any color you choose.
35:43Oh yeah.
35:44Oh, the deck.
35:45The new wood.
35:46The wood on it is beautiful.
35:47The glass is going to light up and it's going to be different colors.
35:50I can't wait to play with that.
35:52New metal roof.
35:53Wow.
35:54New slider door.
35:55But you kept the bell.
35:56Kept the bell.
35:57Of course.
35:58I told all the mice earlier that if they're anywhere around, they need to move out and
36:01they can go live somewhere else happily.
36:02Thank you very much.
36:03So everything is still foam.
36:04There should be no mice.
36:05Oh yeah.
36:06Oh yeah.
36:07Okay.
36:08It's great foam throughout.
36:09It is so nice.
36:10It's unbelievable.
36:11Beautiful.
36:12Well, there's more to see.
36:13Go see if your door thwaps.
36:14Woohoo!
36:15Thwap!
36:16There you go.
36:17Okay.
36:18Let's go inside.
36:20Oh my goodness.
36:22Oh, they pined.
36:24Oh.
36:25Nice.
36:26Oh.
36:27Holy cow.
36:28Oh my gosh.
36:29Wow.
36:30Look at this.
36:31That's fantastic.
36:33The fact that the kitchen is open.
36:35Yeah.
36:36Really cool.
36:37Space to actually sit and eat together.
36:39Yep.
36:40We never had that before.
36:41Nope.
36:42Love it.
36:43Yeah.
36:44It's beautiful.
36:45I love the whole thing.
36:46Everything's gorgeous.
36:47You can see where the original bathroom was.
36:49And the stove and the refrigerator were this way.
36:51The doorway pretty much was right here.
36:53So we're able to head that off.
36:55Open it up this much more.
36:57We added this four by six collar tie.
36:59That'll be more sturdy too.
37:01Oh yes.
37:02Very much so.
37:03Closet space where the shower was.
37:05And then opened up that entry area.
37:08Look at this entry.
37:09Oh.
37:10Wow.
37:11Look at that.
37:12Holy cow.
37:13I.

37:15She's speechless.
37:16I love it.
37:17I love the new bedroom.
37:19Oh my.
37:20Look at.
37:21You're making me cry now.
37:22Well look.
37:23Now I'm crying.
37:24Jesus.
37:25Stop it.
37:26No.
37:27No.
37:28Happy anniversary.
37:30Happy anniversary.
37:32Happy anniversary.
37:34Happy anniversary.
37:36Happy anniversary.
37:38Happy anniversary.
37:39It's been 10 years of working every weekend really.
37:44Yeah.
37:45In the summer.
37:46Like.
37:47I can't believe this.
37:48I don't mean.
37:49We took the words away.
37:50Look at the height in here.
37:52I love it.
37:53Oh it's gorgeous.
37:54That's so nice with the nice flooring and it's nice and open.
37:56My little reading nook.
37:57Yep.
37:58You got your little reading nook.
37:59High windows on the driveway side.
38:02Private entrance on the side for Jeffrey.
38:04It's going to be so nice for our dog.
38:07If the windows are high so the dog can't see out when people come that will be awesome.
38:13Very nice.
38:14I want to see the bathroom.
38:15Okay.
38:16Head on in.
38:17Oh!
38:18We used to have a bathroom right in the middle of the camp and now it's private.
38:24So that whole thing will be so much better.
38:27Let's head out Jeffrey's door.
38:29Jeffrey's door.
38:30It's just more private for everybody that's here.
38:32Yeah.
38:33So when we first got here, you know, the deck was definitely in need of major, major work.
38:41You would ask for a private bedroom with an entrance off the side for Jeffrey.
38:47Moving the bathroom from the center of the camp to the old bedroom.
38:51New metal roof.
38:52We had nine weeks and $75,000.
38:57We had hoped to get it done before your anniversary.
39:00Yay!
39:01And you made it.
39:02We made it.
39:03Right on the day.
39:04On the day of.
39:05Happy anniversary.

39:10Enjoy.
39:11Thank you so much you guys.
39:12All right.
39:15See ya guys.
39:16Wow.
39:17It's been a dozen years almost of renovating, renovating the camp, working every weekend
39:25at the camp.
39:26If we came to camp, we worked.
39:27We wanted to walk into that new bedroom and that was when it really hit me, I think,
39:30that we don't have to work like that every weekend anymore.
39:33Yeah.
39:34That's nice.
39:35I can't thank them enough.
39:36It's just so nice that me and cabin masters have done this for us.
39:40Are you crying again?
39:41Stop it.
39:42Every time I cry she points it out.
39:47Thank you, cabin masters.
39:49Thank you, cabin masters.
