Old House Forensics
1 subscribers
A 200-year-old house is still standing. A house built fifteen years ago is already rotting behind the drywall. Same climate. Same rain. The difference isn't nostalgia — it's moisture, and a handful of things the old builders got right that the modern industry quietly designed out. Old House Forensics takes apart how houses actually fail — plaster vs drywall, wood windows vs vinyl, old-growth framing, foundations, spray foam, lime mortar — and shows you what to check before you let anyone "upgrade" your home. Researched building science, explained plainly, for homeowners, restorers, and the trades. Every video ends with one question for you: year, region, and the one original feature of your house that still works. New videos regularly. Not sponsored — no product pitches.
