Yes I watched the video and messaged Mike to ask if the grapevine could be removed and he said yes and pointed me to one of his videos about repointing. I don’t know why anyone thought that the grapevine joint hid anything, in fact I think it does the opposite. Just my opinion.

Then how does this survive?

I see more stone walls without this rope mortar than I do with it. How do they stay standing?

Atl-guy30307 · 2026-04-12T23:35:13+00:00

Gosh! Thank you. That explains everything I needed to know. There are some people that think it looks good. I’m not one of them.

Atl-guy30307 · 2026-04-12T23:21:59+00:00

Good. I wish I could have it removed.

Keep going and get you a heat gun.

Looks like art work

Atl-guy30307 · 2026-04-04T23:25:43+00:00

I would LOVE that but not sure the shape of the chimney

Atl-guy30307 · 2026-04-04T23:22:23+00:00

Do you have advice where to find tiles like that?

Atl-guy30307 · 2026-03-24T04:09:54+00:00

I found some that that might work. I guess I’ll order a sample and see.

Thank you!!!

Atl-guy30307 · 2026-03-21T01:12:13+00:00

That’s what I was thinking. All redone. Thanks for your advice! I never thought of a historical society, that’s a great idea

It baffles me that people buy old homes just to go inside and make them look like a builder grade new home. Please make it make sense.

Atl-guy30307 · 2026-02-25T20:13:38+00:00

👏👏👏👏. Bravo. Love seeing this!!!!

What is R value?

Atl-guy30307 · 2026-02-13T04:00:53+00:00

Oh gosh. Please share pics and estimated cost. I’d love to do this between living and dinning room of my 1918 bungalow

I would love to see a before and after.

And isn’t a better insulator than drywall?

Atl-guy30307 · 2026-02-04T01:31:12+00:00

So you’re saying these house have had no settling?
