You two are true professionals. I love how well you get along!
Thanks very much 🧱👍🏽
Good to see you setting the doors out below DPC allowing for concrete to go to the back of the outside brick skin.
We've been doing that for years and you wouldn't believe how many clients, architects and building inspectors have said that's not how it's done.
It's a much better job and means there's no trouble trying to put flooring over an open cavity. I've seen a lot of bodge jobs over the years where damp has come through the threshold.
Good job lads.
Very true mate it’s a solid job and it’s finished, no going back on it later 👌🏼🧱👍🏽
great vid guys...bit of a tip i've started doing is cut a bit of visqueen over the brickwork at one end after all the visqueen is finished then tape the slab end down...pick up a cheap window cleaning squeegee and stick yer broom in the end then ya can scrape all the water out up and over yer peice of visqueen instead of having to bucket it out or shovel it...a good back saver like
👌🏼😁🧱👍🏽
Well done Steve and Alex another great job you guy's are on keep up the good work

Excellent work guys
Thanks Robert 🧱👍🏽
great job..thought i heard that Antonov fly over at one point..it comes down from your way and fly's over us on the south coast usually at night though
Thats a cool plane 😍🧱👍🏽
@@SteveAndAlexBuild yep a old turbo prop

Nice work guys! Hope you are both doing well. Merry Christmas to you and your family! Cheers from Texas! (Remember, there are 49 states, and then there is Texas...)
Thanks buddy , glad I can reply as it’s hit n miss usually . We are great but missing the family , can’t wait to get home to them for Christmas. Hope you are safe after all those Tornados not sure if that was near to you .
You and your family have a great Christmas and thanks for the support 🤜🏻🤛🏻🧱👍🏼🎄🎄
Texas? The SECOND largest state.
@@SteveAndAlexBuild Texas just missed the tornados (they all went just north of us). Not sure why my comments get locked up. Could be the browser. Will have to shift over to Brave. You guys always make my day. It's great to watch a father and son team really get after it. I hope santa brings you both something nice under the tree. Cheers my friends!
@@davidnull5590 Yup, that's true, but I wouldn't want to live in Alaska (been there done that). Everything in Texas is set apart from the rest of the US. Banking - "Of Texas". Insurance - "Of Texas". Power grid - only Texas (yeah, that was a mistake caused by deregulation). And the list goes on...Now, if we could just get rid of our crazy governor...
@@WarpFactor999 -- Long, long ago I spent some time off the Glenn Highway near Tolsona, It was freaking COLD and DARK most of the year, that's not for me. My aunt wanted a brick house, something that's not found in AK.
Looking good buddy
Cheers David 🧱👍🏼
Nice work lads!
Cheers Steven 🧱👍🏽
Top job lads
Thanks Darren 🧱👍🏽
Well done, guys 👍
Thanks Paul 🧱👍🏽
Footings look super sharp boys👊 Poor old van though😵Cheers Del
Cheers Del . The lad who shows up in the vid is Neil the joiner , it was his job and he is also who I bought the van off 👌🏼🧱👍🏼😁
@@SteveAndAlexBuild I bet he cried when he saw you using it like a tipper truck😢🤪
@@thetallcarpenter . 😬😬😬
Great video Ste and Al, can I ask why you have cut a line in the existing wall?
Thanks Barry , its required by some building inspectors 🧱👍🏽
nice job so far lads. ive stopped using that recycled now. full of shit the gear weve been getting up here in Leeds. gone bike to limestone.
This was the first time we used these guys and it was good stuff , they crush their own 🧱👍🏽🧱
Good video, missed the pour but meh, saw the actual skilled part, I liked how you got your straight edge ... they've never once gave me a single straight bit of lumber to use never mind 2 to do that :D
I want to blind and DPM' the inside of my garage, insulate, DPM and pour, but how high do I take the DPM because it isn't a cavity wall so I was considering using Kingspan or similar insulated board on the inside because of planning. Also is the DPM doubled up on the walls?
Thanks again for any help.
Avoid going above the dpc whatever you use 🧱👍🏽
Nice project looks like it went well. I’m trying to catch up with all you videos. You need to modify your van so it has a tilt up box 😃What part of England do you live in?
Nice one Mark we are in lancashire 🧱👍🏽
Been there in the late 90s on our driving tour of the UK. Did all the Beatles stuff in Liverpool
@@sgtmark8844 just up the road 😁🧱👍🏽
Is there any need to cut joints in the concrete pad, or is that just for outside?
Just outside pal 🧱👍🏽
If you're doing a sips extension will a slab concrete without brick border be enough ?
It sure what sips is 🤔🧱👍🏽
@@SteveAndAlexBuild Sips is the Structural Insulated Osb Board panels, rather than a traditional wooden frame
Was that telephone wire along the wall and into the air brick out of use........ or it will be soon?
It will be soon 🧱👍🏽
I think a weight lifting belt should be on the Santa list 😂
😏🧱👍🏼
Hiya mate. Are those dense concrete blocks your cutting with that saw or fibrelites? If yes what blade is it? Thanks
No pal fibolites. The blades are good but no good for hard materials like strong mortar , concrete blocks and bricks 🧱👍🏼
Did they used to lube the car up to get it in the garage?
Or has the garage not been used since the fence went up?
😬😆🧱👍🏽
ps/ 25:07 lol i get yer alex........good film that :)
🤨🤣👍🏽🧱
What was the stone called that you laid on the ground?? Before the concrete?? Thanks
We used recycling mot 👌🏼🧱👍🏼
What recipe blade is that for the blocks? Save me hours on window knock throughs
Bosch masonry carbide tipped … Toolstation bout £18 👍🏼🧱
Hi Lads , got a reasonable size extension that's required for early next year ,its a bit different how far do you travel, its in M40 area code
Hi Ged thanks for asking but we are from Lancashire pal so a bit far away 😬🧱👍🏽
@@SteveAndAlexBuild "...we are from Lancashire..." Probably the Baker Street line What Tube stop is that? Said a guy from upstate New York.

Sunday,Bet the neighbours were happy haah
Very nice neighbours 👌🏼🧱👍🏽
@@SteveAndAlexBuild that’s always a great help with any Job
@@matgurd Definitely mate 😁🧱👍🏼
Get yeself a tipper so much easier for picking up material and getting materials & muck away pal

Hi,are you fitting telescopic air vents so they are above the pavement?
No mate we show the vents in the last episode 🧱👍🏽
Wondering about this
@@ade7163 😁🧱👍🏽
What blades are you using on the reciprocating saw to cut block etc ? Looked like it cut very quick. Cheers
Hi pal it’s a Bosch masonry carbide tipped blade 💪🏼🧱👍🏽
@@SteveAndAlexBuild thanks for the quick reply, I’ll get looking ! 👍🏼
@@90jammy90 . No probs …. Toolstation about £18 but worth it 👌🏼🧱👍🏽
👍👍👍
😁🧱👍🏽
Hi chaps,
Looking good. Can I ask about the block returns in the doorway. You returned the blocks below dpc, are you intending to do this above dpc or cavity closers? If so why not a cavity closer at the bottom too?
Sealed cavity below dpc as it’s just stronger with the wacker knocking it about .
Cavity closers above . It’s all on next episode next week 🧱👍🏽
@@SteveAndAlexBuild Perfect, thanks. Where did you get the vent pipe extenders from? Struggling to locate them
@@THEASHSURF we just used square downpipe 🧱👍🏽
@@SteveAndAlexBuild Guys following this with such interest as I'm doing a similar extension. When a saw the pipe was marked as TOP thought is was some special (expensive) pipe. Was relieved to see it doesnt need to go air brick to air brick too.
@@Rolandpgbrooks 🧱👍🏽😁
Small pump or wet vac would be ideal for you guys lot less farting around cleaning water out
🧱👍🏽😁
What are the square piping for
It’s to vent the under floor as the new floor covers the existing vents on the house 🧱👍🏽
NOT TO SHABBY
😉🧱👍🏽
why not remove the downpipe?
Massive job to move all that drainage 🧱👍🏽
@@martin2466 especially with depth , lack of room and how bad the existing drainage has been laid 🙄🧱👍🏽
@@martin2466 . Finish Wednesday 😁🥳🥳🧱👍🏽
You teasers...
