Pressure Washing An Abandoned Stone House on my farm in Central Portugal.

Hi guys, I am Alex.

I am an Ukrainian expat who moved to Portugal.
No one in my family ever did any farming, But I discovered that I am very passionate about farming so recently I’ve purchased this 28 hectares Farm in Central Portugal, with the intention to start a small scale farm raising worms, cattle and sheep.

In this little farm I am also planning to build an off grid home, and be as self sufficient as possible, by growing my own food.

I created this channel to share my journey with the world, The journey of a first generation farmer, that is starting with no prior knowledge and experiences.
That maybe all the mistakes that I will make along this journey, and all the fails maybe will help some of you to learn from my mistake and not make them yourself.
I want to bring value and inspire people who are thinking about farming.

I am not a filmmaker or an editor, I am just a simple guy with a camera.

So if it is interesting to you, subscribe to the channel and you will not miss the upcoming episodes.

  1. Alex i thought spraying the black moss and it turned green was awesome also great job powering washing but you should wear eye protection when you do that but what really got me was you said we were going to lunch and i was looking forward to see we were having and i got nothing now i sit here hungry

  2. OMG the pressure washing has transformed the ruin. It looks beautiful! I don’t know how you intend to finish the walls but the first step in any treatment would have to be cleaning the walls. So you are ahead of the game. The moss or whatever is growing on the inside walls needs to be removed. If it were on the outside, it would add character but inside, not so much. Keep up the good work. Love it!

  3. I like how you did a before and after it’s was therapeutic to see you clean 100 years old walls of dirt and rocks it looks great Alex nice and clean now it’s time to clean the floor you did a great job Alex there’s no stop you now keep on cleaning 🌟🤩🤩🤩🍻🍻👍✌️🤙❤️🇵🇹❤️

  4. Hi Alex and Dad. You both have been busy again. The power washing is so satisfying,the stone colours and texture is exposed now and what a wonderful sight. Makes the area look bigger too. Angelica over sees your work and she does a magnificent job. Doing so.e plumbing and repairs my self to our home. Had a few cooler wet days,but the weather is warming up again. Supplies…..slow. Work…….getting it done. Stay safe all and have a good weekend.

  5. I would have used sodium hypochlorite spray first then wait 30 minutes and the pressure washing would be easy/less water. Its a personal choice use chemical or chemical free up to the person.

  6. Also would be more advantageous to use a very large Piping Bag to apply the mortar. Would be less obvious and easier to get inside the walls between the stones. Or perhaps a coloured mortar? Best of luck restoring this old beauty. And thx for taking us along with you.👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

  7. Fabulous Job! Something uniquely satisfying about a cleaning job well done.
    Restoring this Old Beauty to its former Glory. Now truly shows just how simply gorgeous is structure once was.👍🏻❤️👍🏻❤️

  8. Buen día Alex , me encanta con el entusiasmo y dedicación que trabajas y ases las cosas creo que eres una persona muy especial definitivamente disfrutas y admiras toda y cada una de las cosas que te rodean , sin duda alguna aran de esas rutinas un hogar muy especial y súper bendecido !!! Grasias por compartirnos está aventura !!!!!

  9. After you have pressure washed the stone work and after it has dried. what you need to do is protect the stone work and use WATER SEAL on the stone work. then when it rains the rain will bead off the stone until you get a roof on the building. or put tarps over the walls
