For clarification on the permit. The $45k includes the water and sewage upgrades, this is mandatory upgrade if your home is over the age of 29 years on bigger renovations. I included that in the total cost of the permit as this was the total fee that was needed to be paid prior to receiving the permit. These are the permitting rules for the city where the house is located.

For the record I'm a 35 year old male subscribing to a crocheting youtuber, no regrets.

So, I've finally done it. The whole structural engineering office, where I work as a design engineer, watches the latest episode on Thursdays during our lunch break, even the bosses watch it in the break room. There's always something new to discover about North American timber construction.

Structural engineer here! I can confidently say that the pole is supporting the 45 thousand dollar permit.

45k Canadian dollars is about 33k US dollars, 30.5k euros, or 26k pound sterling... in case anyone was wondering

Hey folks - great job - one quick tip, please wear head and eye protection when you're dealing with overhead wood removal. Cheers.

That shot at the end with mystery man just creeping behind Jenna is inspired 😂

$45k for a stinking permit? No wonder so many people just let their house go to crap, you can't even afford to fix it up!

I grew up in this area, in a house like this. My parents had it built in 1957. About a decade later, we had a (rare) huge snowfall (your area gets a lot less snow than where I lived). Late evening, the phone rang. It was the architect, just casually calling let my Dad know that it might be a good idea to shovel off the roof ... like, now ... not to wait for morning ...

It's amazing how mesmerizing it is to watch 2 complete strangers on Youtube destroy/remodel a neat older home. Jenna took a huge chance on completely changing her channel from Crafts to home remodeling. I've been watching another guy overseas rebuild an old Chateau house that was completely burnt out in the 80s. Everytime a new video shows in my feed I get giddy like a young school boy waiting to play their favorite game with a smile on my face. I'm getting more inspired everyday to actually upload videos I make and edit but never post.

Jenna I’ve followed you since your Thrifting Era, then loved your Crocheting Era and now you are only 5, 000 SUBS UNTIL YOU HIT 1 MILLION during your awesome MCM Reno Era! Woo hoo! 🎉 Go Jenna GO JENNA!

It took him awhile but by 3.0 Sammy finally understood the assignment, and threw in a self automation upgrade! 😄 I've seen many YT videos where homes like this just get torn down and replaced by McMansions, so it makes my heart happy knowing you want to bring this retro house back again, only better! If you hear a faint sounding 'go, go go!' that's just me cheering you & Nick on from Ontario. Best of luck to you both! 😊

mystery man just hovering at 22:34 felt like our most important moment of the video.

Sell 45, 000 of your succulents for $1 each. Win. Win.

[teetaloo]

the way i just yelled out "WHAT????" with my mouth half full of toast when you said $45, 000 for the permit ... what the FUCK

Architect here 👋 "Green roofs" (as we call them in my country) are actually pretty clever if done correctly. The garden on the roof will protect the building from overheating, keep some water on your plot (drought prevention) and look attractive. Also nothing wrong with flat roofs in general (if done correctly ofc), not mentioning that modernist architecture kinda requires it.
