We are in the middle of renovating our house in an abandoned Portuguese village. Today we finish the window frame, dig out the septic tank and handle a very annoying doorframe 😉 Stay tuned for more building content and why not hit the notification bell so you don’t miss it 😉 thanks for watching!
My name is Jasper and i bought a house in a Portuguese ghost town. Together with my dogs Zoey & Akira we show you the rebuild of our house and what it is like living the daily life in Central Portugal.

"Borders of the septic tank" = perimeter?
You did a great job on the stonewall, heavy work.
Lintels should be approx 150mm each side of the window/door opening.
With the weight of the concrete you should come out appropriately 100 miles West of Perth Australia
Especially in hot weather always it is a good idea to spray water onto the curing cement from time to time so it does not dry too fast and crack. Cement needs to cure rather than dry and if it can be slowed down in the first 12-24 hours it is far less likely to crack.
take box to bath ??
Nice job on the dry retaining wall repair
Today I'm doing the exact same thing also in the same country 😅
Congratulations bro 🤟
Bravissimo Duarte…
Good job done👍👍👍
good job Duarte!
Jasper, I think you should put a couple more supports under your laminated beam. One it is on its side and two you have all the tiles on it. 😳
Nice job on the wall you should record that so I can keep my mouth shut, what a level difference between your property and the other.
Another thing how you going to fix the center line of the roof specially on the bathroom with that triangle shape, I'm raking my brain even made a little sketch and don't know how.
Renato is a hard worker, he is always doing something, well Duarte too, is like Esinhower said if you want to look good you have to surround yourself with people better than you.
Normally there is quite a lot of oxygen in the water from the tap. Maybe it's enough for the bacteria already

The old Door frame is very unruly.
You need to buy a small cement mixer as you will need it for the other projects, you should have done it before the other projects.
I am surprised u haven’t got a cement mixer Jasper it makes mixing concrete a lot easier but well done good shuttering . U are both very brown best regards Andy from Felixstowe.
