I'm a brickie,39 years old and I've been doing this since I left school. I run two 2 & 1 gangs and this kid is correct, when you're running lightweight blocks in you can earn decent money. But if you average it out over the whole house/every lift and take into account all the days you aren't on Rockstar wages,I.e setting out corners,under DPC, loading out (yes some brickies still pitch in and help out the labourer from time to time),fitting window jambs and heads,gable cut ups etc etc. When you average that for every house over the course of a year and factor in bad weather,unpaid holidays you need days like this to make it worth while. I make a decent living but I've got 15 years left if I'm lucky, the only guys I've ever met who've made millions are brick barons with multiple gangs. Millionaire brick layers still on the trowel,I've never met one. These young brickies remind me of myself in 2008, 24 and I thought I had this game figured out, that recession was a humbling experience and the next one is going to be just as bad, let's see how many are posting videos next year boasting about how much money they are earning. I thought the same thing in 2008, they'll never shut the site,too much demand, they moth balled most sites overnight and we struggled for 18 months until things started back up again. Include a couple of recessions and forced early retirement and tell me how much you've actually earnt over your career and I guarantee you've not averaged £ 360 a day.

@@Nutsarooba that's not true, mine froze before. I knocked mine earlier though and now the bubbles not working so I'm off to buy a new bubble for my level. Good day.
Lightweight blocks, profiles instead of building corners, it can be done mate. Where I am only lightweight blocks we get to use are trench blocks in the foundations everything else is dense 6 inch concrete blocks.
With brickeys and scaffers there’s always one man that keeps them going strong. And that one man took all that money and exchanged it for coke an hour later
But how long did it take you to get the blocks and muck up there boi? That £1.50 per block includes loading out and mixing up. Suddenly that £360 has got to pay 2 blokes for a day.
Exactly...and a nice straight run ...no windows or doors or openings...also its a young man's game most masons have chronic back pain by the time they're 45/50 . Great job in the summer but the winter is a whole different ball game .

No wonder you work so fast, lad if I could brick like that id be tryna smash out 20 blocks a minute. Id start training at home builting walls and working out just for that kinda bread.
Depends on the weather, availability of work, how complex the build is (not every house has straight walls with no windows or doors), what the going rate is (pay is great when times are great), and at the end of the day you aren't keeping that pace for 8 hours 6 days a week, nevermind the next 40-50 years toll it takes on your body. Times are great when you're a young man with cartilage to burn and no injuries to your body and at the moreover bricklayers will be one of the first occupations to go, we are already seeing machines specifically designed to lay bricks as its a repetitive easy to program task. Electricians, carpenters or even plumbers arent going to have that issue anytime soon as it's a lot more difficult of a task to automate and tedious to perform
So 240 blocks an hour between two men, so 120 each?, let’s take off the 40 and round to 100 each, so your telling me as a pair you lay 1600 blocks a day 👀

I've heard and know these price work boys earn top money and it compensates wet weather days, but these houses the owners have moved in been there 3 months and the lads are still waiting to get weighed in for purposes of problems if any from the brickwork, ridiculous,.!!
There is one very simple and easy turn in this: if the rates would be like that 40h per week, 12 months a year...I doubt any of the "better" educated bank boys would sit in London trading stocks. They would be out in the wild laying bricks 🤷♂️ But never the less, respect for all hard working man out there that build house, streets and all the construction we need to live in 👍👍👍🥃
builders should be paid a fixed rate daily. If they get paid per brick, they just gonna rush it which would cause the building to be made messed up. and dangerous to live in
People talking about built quality. I tell you one thing,when you start building house you start from the corners,look at the corners,others maybe don't see that,but if you know basics of bricklaying,you know that corners must be bricked first with whole bricks or blocks,not the split ones,split ones goes in a middle of line.
Damn, can we promoted this as the new "get rich quick" scheme please. Get these Tik Tok kids doing the, "who can build a house" challenge. Get these housing prices down a bit

OK, you've just told us that K. Walker Brickwork is concerned with throwing up as many bricks as possible without regard to quality.
Well done, doofus
Company’s want fast doofus
@@kurtmalpassbrickwork6255 and then gets sued when structural damage occurs from shoddy work. "I'm not poor. Swear to God. Please believe me"
@@SeaJayBelfast You're absolutely right here, this guy is going to fuck up so many foundations if he stays in that mindset of "fast = better money for me"
What housebuilders are using lightweight blocks that's the question 🤣 cos I want in my backs fucked
@@scott8847 most houses are using thermalites now
He has spent a lot of his life learning this profession and it is also tiring I think he deserves it
It’s laying big blocks
I could show you in 2 weeks if you can walk
@@raybans8712 it's a little bit more than that but sure.
@@user-kh9nd9iv2t yes exaggerating with 2 weeks but block far easier than brick 🧱
@@raybans8712 yeah that's true.
No wonder you work so fast, lad if I could brick like that id be tryna smash out 20 blocks a minute. Id start training at home builting walls and working out just for that kinda bread.
Depends on the weather, availability of work, how complex the build is (not every house has straight walls with no windows or doors), what the going rate is (pay is great when times are great), and at the end of the day you aren't keeping that pace for 8 hours 6 days a week, nevermind the next 40-50 years toll it takes on your body. Times are great when you're a young man with cartilage to burn and no injuries to your body and at the moreover bricklayers will be one of the first occupations to go, we are already seeing machines specifically designed to lay bricks as its a repetitive easy to program task. Electricians, carpenters or even plumbers arent going to have that issue anytime soon as it's a lot more difficult of a task to automate and tedious to perform
So 240 blocks an hour between two men, so 120 each?, let’s take off the 40 and round to 100 each, so your telling me as a pair you lay 1600 blocks a day 👀
If the runs were that big yes 👍🏻 a normal semi detached second lift has around 900-1100 in though and we do that in a day easy all cleaned up , we also have breaks and have to joint up don’t forget
@@kurtmalpassbrickwork6255 The last pair i seen joint up on a break were falling all over the place.
Don't forget to even all that money out over the year to cover 3 months off due to shit weather ect..
@@tazernuts5930 loose about 2 weeks a year max…….
@@kurtmalpassbrickwork6255 bollocks
Earning all that money buy a new level son
Waste of money this one still works perfect I check it daily 😁
so that explains why my 75 year old papa is still bricklaying 3 days a week, your labourer must be the flash
Between $10-15 a block here in Melbourne Australia. Up the prices lads. If we all do it they’ll have to pay, it’s what every other trade does
Jesus Christ hahah get me over to Melbourne
@@kurtmalpassbrickwork6255 good luck getting into Australia for the next few years. They’ve lost the plot with COVID-19. Fucking joke
@@paulbroomer5337 😬😬😬 I’ve heard
@@kurtmalpassbrickwork6255 I’m originally from London/south east England. Australia is a great country but turning into a cotton wool wrapped horror of a place. I’m working and prices are going up so I shouldn’t moan. Haha
Damn that’s cheap I charge $4 per block here in Texas. That’s 4in block.
Take me to Texas bro hahah
Bro im coming to Texas!
@@samiphillips9465 Same 🤣🤣
How much for 16s or crowd favorite 3 hour 12s 😄
@@kurtmalpassbrickwork6255 I have a feeling you have a criminal record so no Texas for you!
Although you would fit in with the other cowboys out there
Yeehah 🤠
Every single TH-camr thinks they're the best & fastest out there but they really aren't 🤣 Also that Charlie thinks he invented pic & dip too
I invented Charlie
Charlie's an arse piece
He’s got decent tattoos though 😆

We all know it’s swings and roundabouts, we make on the gables then it’s panels front and back , anyone in the trade knows , then murder us on the cut ups with corbels, dental etc all on a count , no extra for us but we all know the subbys are paid for it ! Lintels , damp , FEATURE WORK!
Verry true mate , in the process of trying to remove the middle man at the moment but sites are flooded by greedy barrons 😡
Just you wait till Kevin Mcloud shows up! He’ll kick RIGHT off 🤣🤣
I've seen plenty of cowboys in my time throw these buildings up
Now you can say you have seen a master 😁
@@kurtmalpassbrickwork6255 ha!ha!
I don't know why people lie like this, it's so sad. I've got a painting and decorating business and we supply to barratt, wimpey and persimmon. My best friend is also a contracts manager for Wimpey, so I can say with certainty not only are your prices bollocks but you're misleading people about how quick you work. If one of my blokes did this they would be finding someone else to work for
Behave you pleb 🤣🤣🤣
How long did it take to do all the prep!!!. And if you freeze the end with spirit level it aint flush!!
It’s 25m2 in the south, 10 blocks in a m2 so 2.50 a block including wallties and insulation
Concreting over our ancient land to house the 3rd world... lovely 🤮
🤣🤣🤣
Somebody is being gross, inhumane and xenophobic….
@@kingol4801 Indigenous birthrates are below replacement level and tens of millions of foreigners, ONE MILLION last year alone, now almost exclusively from the 3rd world, are being brought into our lands against the will of native Brits.
Absolutely, our sacred land IS being concreted over to house the 3rd world.
What's inhumane is to dispossess and replace one population with another.
What's gross is calling people names that object to the genocide of their people.
The British deserve exclusive living space and self-determination just like every other racial group.
When the Chinese replace Tibetans it's genocide... when the same things done to the British we're supposed to celebrate it?
What sort of psycho cheers on genocide?
You're on the wrong side of history... what an awful person!
I've heard and know these price work boys earn top money and it compensates wet weather days, but these houses the owners have moved in been there 3 months and the lads are still waiting to get weighed in for purposes of problems if any from the brickwork, ridiculous,.!!
Seasonal work though…soon as rain comes you aint earning. Unlucky lads! 😚
There is one very simple and easy turn in this: if the rates would be like that 40h per week, 12 months a year...I doubt any of the "better" educated bank boys would sit in London trading stocks. They would be out in the wild laying bricks 🤷♂️
But never the less, respect for all hard working man out there that build house, streets and all the construction we need to live in 👍👍👍🥃
Yeah for the boss not for the geezer laying the bricks 😂
Depends how you distribute in the business
I worked putting netting up for roofwrs etc. Worked on this building site for military homes lets just say it was quantity over Quality 😢
builders should be paid a fixed rate daily. If they get paid per brick, they just gonna rush it which would cause the building to be made messed up. and dangerous to live in
New build bullders shouldnt be allowed to think they're great. Everyone knows they aint.
People talking about built quality. I tell you one thing,when you start building house you start from the corners,look at the corners,others maybe don't see that,but if you know basics of bricklaying,you know that corners must be bricked first with whole bricks or blocks,not the split ones,split ones goes in a middle of line.
The splits are a 100mm to give you a uniform 220mm half bond on the corners, if you need to put splits in the middle your bonds are completely wrong
So you saying 10 blocks a minute. What about the mixing, putting the bed of gear on the blocks, setting up n loading out the blocks?
It lasts about 20 years tho so get Ready for a new house
Good stuff, I always respect the boys in this trade. Hard graft pays well
It starts raining after 30 seconds and they go home 🤷♂️😂. Turned up for nothing not even paid for the fuel to get there .
It’s about fucking time all tradesmon wages went up 👌🏻
@@henrychanner4032 you know this 👌🏻 and ps fuck the NHS cunts done nothing blood on their hands !
Damn, can we promoted this as the new "get rich quick" scheme please. Get these Tik Tok kids doing the, "who can build a house" challenge. Get these housing prices down a bit
😂😂😂
Keep that pace up all day with standard concrete blocks....I'm doing it 30 years ...I'm sorry to God I didn't become a sparky...my bones are sore from it
Man these brickies got heads blown up like balloons these days with the money... £200-400 per day ain't all that and the client gets a shit job as a result 🤦. If you want to earn good money then start your own business and do things the right way.
Great , what about setting up, mixing the mud etc etc .its all time
Pack up clean up
£15 a minute you live in a dream world
10 blocks in a minute? Dream on
Smashed it mate👍👍🍻🍻
Depends where u laying blocks as well different places are different prices
Companies House… I’ll leave it there! 🧢
Ah yes the best employee mindset, there are no expenses, work as fast as possible because "I'm not paid hourly LOL", and everything was already done for you. I bet your boss loves you!!
Take pride in your work you damn clown, someone could be living in that one day. How would you feel if you found out your speed job ended up collapsing?
Bullshit. What about rain days recessions, winter, trust me 57yr old bricky here 41yrs bricklaying still living paycheck to paycheck, been repossessed twice declared bankrupt after earning sometimes £1000 a wk, but remember its not every wk of yr. Nobody shows vids of the bad stuff.
Всегда приятно смотреть на работу мастера, вот где искусство!😊
It's true i Laboured for 4years until i got my serious legit job on self employed it's legit and it's paying better then anything work hard play hard.
Sound until the winter then you earn fuck all can’t lay in the rain.
