ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 ส.ค. 2024
- THIS WEEK WE RE MODEL A STONE FRONT PORCH FOR OUR VIEWER PAUL.
WE CUT OUT A NEW DOOR THEN BRICK UO 2 WINDOWS AND A DOOR.
THE WHOLE THING IS DOUBLR FACE ANSTONE IMITATION STONE . WE NEEDED TO DO A LOT OF TOOTHING WHICH WAS A DODDLE WITH OUR NEW BLUE BOSCH SABRE SAW PLUS ALL THE CAVITY CLOSERS NEEDED CUTTING OUT.
WE ALSO RAN OUT OF STONE AND WHEN PAUL GOT TO THE MERCHANTS THEY HAD RAN OUT TOO AND IT WASN'T BEING MANUFACTURED FOR ANOTHER 9 MONTHS ! .PAUL SOURCED AN ALTERNATIVE SO WE COULD GET FINISHED WHICH TURNED OUT REALLY WELL SO DISASTER AVERTED 👌🏽

As a former stone mason I find your work “top shelf “. Kudos to Alex on his first go at stone, he’s a natural!
Stone masons are really scarce, real ones, not the “glue it to the wall” fake stuff!!
Great camera work and your editing is fabulous!
Keep it up!
Thanks very much Bud , much appreciated 🤜🏽🤛🏽🧱👍🏽
“Great work Alex”👍
😁🧱👍🏽
Superb match with mortar and stone colours. 👍👍😁
Cheers Doug 🧱👍🏽
Hi Guy’s what a cracking match beautifully put together, the Ripo saw for cutting out great shout all the best Tony 👍
Cheers Tony , that saw was a tip from Rodian and what a massive difference it has made to us . It will save us hours of time and so much less dust too . It has made toothing far less Of a chore . 🧱👍🏽
Ahhh yes...hammer to fit, grout to match! Really nice work guys! That new entry way will definitely give welcome shelter during inclement weather (which ya'all never get over there...). Please tell Alex he does great work too! 👍👍 Cheers from Texas!

Hiya Steve and Alex hope your both well . Nice quality video but I think it would of been better to nock down the hole thing and build one to Match house , and may be easier for you both 🤔👍
It definitely would have been easier 😆🧱🧱👍🏽

Sterling job lads! Looks amazing. Cheers.

Spent a whole week with a hammer and bolster dressing these blocks on the face verticals for a big landscape job in my teens probably earning 75p an hour! Can’t believe I watched this I vowed after the time if I ever saw another it would be too soon!!😂 Great job lads 👍
🤣🤣 cheers Iain 🧱👍🏽
Great job guys, you always do a fantastic job 👍 I bet you were glad when the grinding was completed 👍
Definitely as it was warm and we needed sun block on 🥵😆🧱👍🏽
That looks like Lydiate. I used to go to the Mersey Motor Boat Club sometimes for a drink.
😁👌🏼🧱👍🏽
Great match on the Stone Steve and Alex and awesome work Alex first time on the stone work very tidy work 👌
Cheers John . He did great , very proud 😁🧱👍🏽
Stunning job guys .. I like these stones .. THAT is a nice sawblade for that tiger-saw or whatever that saw is called , just cuts through the mortar like that ! Have a good one steve and Alex 🇧🇪🙏🏼
Thanks very much Jay we enjoyed this one mainly because the toothing went without a hitch and that saw was money well spent 💷👌🏼.
The blade is a Bosch carbide tipped masonry blade . Excellent 😁🧱👍🏽
@@SteveAndAlexBuild will look out for one ☝🏼 🙏🏼
@@JayKTS 😉🧱👍🏽
Lovely job lads. Paul must be made up. Nice work Alex for the first time on the stone. Good match to the old stuff too.
Cheers David 🧱👍🏽
Cracking job.
Thanks pal 🧱👍🏽
Such a good job
Cheers 🧱👍🏽
That looks belting, great job lads. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks very much Alistair 😁🧱👍🏽
Loving the tunes on this vid lads. Progressive house ala Swedish house mafia stylee. Oh and nice brickwork.
Cheers Jan 😁🧱👍🏽
Top job by Steve and Alex, thanks again 👍
Thanks Paul can’t wait to see it all done 🧱👍🏽
Top job, and will look even better once the mortar dries. Just a thought - Would one of the rotary saw manufacturers let you have a battery one with hose water feed to advertise their product.
Cheers . We wish ! 😆We ain’t big enough for gifts like that 🙄🧱👍🏽
@@SteveAndAlexBuild Well I think you deserve it for all your TH-cam efforts. One day soon, fingers crossed.
@@johncoppock3823 cheers John 😁🧱👍🏽

Thanks Gary 😁🧱👍🏽
Nice one boy"s
Cheers Michael 🧱👍🏽
Beautiful job! The new walkway sure looks great too! Watching from the US.
Thanks pal , we can’t take credit for the beautiful landscaping though👍🏼🧱
Done an amazing job Steve and Alex. When it weathers up you just will not be able to tell there was ever any windows in it. A lot of work grinding and cutting in. Not much of the original porch left. There must havd been times you wished that you had just took it down and started again.
I did think that before we started but it went quite well in the end 🧱👍🏽
@@SteveAndAlexBuild more than quite well you are very modest lol. It looks great the customer must have been made up with it
@@johnblackburn7673 . 😆. Yes Paul is one of our viewers and a subscriber 😁🧱👍🏼
you blended the blocks in well, great job lads
Thanks Michael 🧱👍🏽
boss job lads
Thanks pal 😁🧱👍🏽
Nice tidy work from Alex - cracking our kid!
Very proud how he took to this stuff , cheers Matt 🧱👍🏼
@@SteveAndAlexBuild Proud Dad! It's all about the progression, not the speed. Rome wasn't built in a day. And if it was then Persimmon must have won the contract!
@@mattcartwright8272 Spot on mate 😉🧱👍🏽
Without a doubt …. Throw them up get them in 💰💰💰💰💰💰💰👹
@@martin2466 . The art and the pride has been pushed out for speed and greed , very sad 😕🧱👍🏽
Lovely job but it sure was dusty keep up great work.🍺🍺🍺
Cheers Richard, it certainly was 😷🥽🧱👍🏽
Amazing
Thanks pal 🧱👍🏽
Good match on the new blocks , looks a bit like bradstone , tidy job anyway
Cheers Michael, hardly anyone makes it any more , very hard to get hold of 🙄🧱👍🏽
@@SteveAndAlexBuild there used to be a Bradstone factory about 2 miles from where I live
@@michaelwaite6725 . Yeah used loads of it . Think this stuff Forticrete 🧱👍🏽
Another good job, nice one lads.
Thanks pal 😁🧱👍🏽
Hermoso trabajo del porche excelente equipo Steve y Alex saludos desde Chile 🇨🇱
Many thanks 🙏🏽🧱👍🏽
Class job
🧱👍🏽
Maybe next time just put a cloth over the house number
Yep my stupidity on this one is up there 🙄🤨🤣🧱👍🏽
Nice job lads
Thanks Ben 👍😁🧱
Hi guys just been watching a lot of your back vlogs 👍.One question why was no insulation used in the cavity wall take care 😀👍
Hi Paul thanks for watching pal . Simply the cavity was too small 🧱👍🏽
Nice one Alex and Steve, but id kept the window, looks very dark in there now
Paul the customer has plans for the porch which won’t need windows 🧱👍🏽
Great video (I'm still catching up on your older videos). Just out of curiosity, are you not allowed to return the walls to close the cavity in the door openings anymore? I'm guessing building regs don't allow it these days?
Thanks pal, nit really as it acts as cold bridge which is a big no no now 👍🏽🧱
looks great but did they just take away the window
Cheers . Paul had the door moved and we bricked up 2 windows . He plans to have storage in there 🧱👍🏽
Nice job looks very nice, but I just totally don't get why the customer has wanted that, just blocking light from their front door
Cheers Greg . There is a lot of storage going in so windows will limit how much can go in 👌🏼🧱👍🏽
Great job lads looks amazing great match on the mortar you would never no what it was like before 👍
Thanks Dave 🧱👍🏽
@@SteveAndAlexBuild keep up great videos Lads love watching your builds amazing 👍
@@davecooke914 . Will do pal , plenty to come, editing as we speak 🤓🧱👍🏽
@@SteveAndAlexBuild great look forward to videos you deserve all the best 👍
@@davecooke914 nice one Dave 🧱👍🏽
The house number? How about that wide blue tape painters use for masking Or perhaps just hand a rag over the house number? It will save you time blurring out things in your videos.
We are onto that now . It will save me so much time messing in the edit 🙄🧱👍🏽
hi amazing work as always, what brand of feb plasticiser do you guys use and how much on average are you using on a 4:1 brickwork mix? thanks😎😎😎👌
Hi joey we use the sikka concentrated stuff . About 10 mil to a full mix 👌🏼🧱👍🏽
Quality 👌
Thanks very much cal 🧱👍🏼
Blimey, someone won the pools…lol…
Won the what !? …. Pools , you’re showing your age there Stu 🤣🤣🧱👍🏽
22:44 What a cliffhanger! Her cat got jumped by another neighbor cat, what did she do? Did she jump on the neighbor cat? Did she jump on the neighbor? I need to know! 🐈
🤣🤣. always entetaining on the Jermy Vine show 😉🧱👍🏽
Thought it was wonky but it is just the lense on the camera 🤣
Ah the go pro wide lens 🤓.
Or maybe it is wonky 🤔? 🤣🧱👍🏽
Great job matching the stonework I was wondering why you didn't use any insulation?.
We asked Paul the customer but he decided against it as the cavity was very small to get any in . I suggested the poly balls but he doesn’t like them 🧱👍🏽
I feel sorry for the alpaca with t.b.
A bit of a cofuffle all that 😆
I hope they don't rub goose grease on his chest my nan rubbed it on my grandfather .he went down hill fast after that !
@@daiburt1833 . 😟🤣
Great job lads what blade have you got on that rip saw? Great way to tooth out saves loads of time something I'm gonna start doing thanks lads
Hi Pete it’s a Bosch carbide tipped masonry blade , bout £15 . Excellent. I’ve heard that the Milwaukee ones are good too 👌🏼🧱👍🏽
@@SteveAndAlexBuild brilliant I will get one that will save me loads of time thanks Steve n Alex
@@peteallen9486 . We are Very impressed 🧱👍🏽
@@SteveAndAlexBuild I seem to be getting a few jobs bricking up doorways and altering window sizes etc, so doing a lot of toothing out. there's loads of jobs on that my builder
@@peteallen9486 . Thanks for the tip 😁🧱👍🏽
Great job,the seems are invisible to me
Thanks Dave 🧱👍🏽
What blade you got in the saw Steve
It’s a Bosch carbide tipped masonry blade £15 👌🏼🧱👍🏽
👏💪👍🍻
Thanks pal 😁🧱👍🏼
Those closures look terrible . A very big NO NO . Introduce 3/4 to get rid if them . 👍🏴
No it’s random work and the closers look fine .
The customer was made up with it .
Each to their own 🧱👍🏽
@@SteveAndAlexBuild You NEVER put closures in the middle of any brick or stonework . It looks SHIT . Just saying .
@@johnbowkett80 You’re welcome to your opinion but us and the customer ( who is the most important) don’t think it looks SHIT
@@SteveAndAlexBuild IT LOOKS SHIT !
@@SteveAndAlexBuild You certainly ain't no Rob Songer . 😅😂🤣
