Ep 12. Parkville Farmhouse

In Salvage Dawgs Season 8 Episode 12, the team takes on their latest project: salvaging a historic farmhouse in Parkville, Maryland. The 170-year-old structure has been abandoned for decades and is in need of a lot of work, but the team is excited about the challenge.

The episode begins with Salvage Dawgs co-owners Mike and Robert meeting with the owner of the property, who has agreed to let the team come in and salvage items from the old farmhouse. The property owner explains that the structure was once a working farm, and the house was the original farmhouse on the property. It has been vacant for many years, but the owner hopes to eventually restore it to its former glory.

Mike and Robert take a walk through the property, surveying the items they might be able to salvage. They note the large stone fireplace in the living room, the wooden beams in the ceiling, and the many doors and windows throughout the house. They also find several items outside, including an old wagon and an antique milk can.

Back at the shop, the Salvage Dawgs team prepares to make the journey to Parkville. They load up their trailer with tools and supplies and hit the road, excited about the potential treasures they may unearth at the farmhouse.

When they arrive, the team gets to work immediately. Mike and Robert head inside to start dismantling the fireplace in the living room while the rest of the team begins removing doors, windows, and other items from around the property.

As they work, the team discovers many interesting items that they can salvage and repurpose. They find an old wooden ladder, a collection of vintage light fixtures, and several large wooden doors that will be perfect for future projects.

The team also faces challenges as they work on the farmhouse. They encounter a large wasp nest inside the chimney and need to create a makeshift ladder to safely remove it. They also struggle to remove a large window from the property, but eventually succeed with the help of some creative problem-solving.

Despite the challenges, the Salvage Dawgs team is able to salvage many interesting items from the Parkville farmhouse. They load up their trailer with all their finds and leave the property feeling satisfied with their work.

Back at the shop, the team begins to sort through their salvaged items and find ways to repurpose them. They clean up the vintage light fixtures and test them, finding that they still work perfectly. They also begin to brainstorm ideas for the wooden doors and ladder they salvaged.

In the end, the team is able to salvage many valuable items from the Parkville farmhouse, including the stone fireplace, a collection of doors and windows, vintage light fixtures, and the antique milk can. They are proud of the work they accomplished and excited to see how these items will be repurposed in future projects.
