None of the purps below are full! It's because when he Kay's the brick he pushes the brick down against the purp. Which always leaves a 10/15mm you have to fill at the top of the purp. Rather then pushing it vertical against the laid brick and generating a full purp
Out of respect for the other Bricklayer at other end of the line,I would prefer to butter the Brick first then lay to the line, this will have minimal disruption to the line, his spread is excellent as you would expect, very clean and tidy. That looks also like a 12 inch trowel, too much strain maybe on the wrist = problems later on when near retirement, old Arthritis will kick in.
That is the voice of experience!! What is it with all these shovels cut to the shape of trowels? It doesn't make anyone any quicker, the fastest guy I ever worked with had a 10" trowel that had been worn down to 8". No one could keep up with him. Your dead right about Arthritis. We do love a banjo player!
My two cents is he should focus on using the tip of the trowel, instead of so far back. Cleaner, and more control. Itd probably cut down on a lot of the line twanging too.
Noticed that you never showed him putting the last brick in against the jam. May be something to do with he was 40mm back on his perps and he had to jig all the bricks in that course
@@jamietalbot7254 those bricks are a pain in the grass, some 210mm some 215mm as we are used to and some are 220mm. Mix that with a man going at price speed and you do end up nipping up bricks. Nobody pays you to measure, brick hammer, lay ,point and brush on a price. Just saying.
Plenty of comments below, including one of mine, what I will say is the lad didn't tap a brick, that is rare to see these days. Hats off to him and whoever taught him to lay a bed right so he didn't need to tap.
Charlie do you lay those type of brick a certain way? I mean with the dark spot to the right. It seems to contrast better or is it my eyes still full of gobbo?
Yes not bad at all, but like others comments I was always taught to butter the brick [58 ex bricklayer] seems the young guys like this method and they don't seem too concerned with back of the wall either, clean cavity and full joints for me even if slows you down a bit. Good bricky though
Very tidy. I would not like him twanging the line but on his own, very good. Nice bed, no flicks because the bed is laid to the right amount. As far as filled cross joints, the next bed fills them. Half the bricks laid now are cellular of have such massive frogs that any talk of missing the rear cross joint is just a way of saying I’m better than you’. Btw.. a perpendicular joint is a measured joint underneath a window or opening, a change of bond , cuts within the length of a wall. The normal joint is a cross joint. So many are critical of this man but it actually shows up their own lack of knowledge or their laziness. He was clean tidy quick and cleaned the cavity. I would do it differently but there was nothing wrong with him except for the twang (for two blokes)
I’m guessing he knows there isn’t another brickie laying to the same line,. He probably wouldn’t twang the line as much if there were, what do you think?
Under pressure for being filmed?? don't talk rubbish, it's his choice, he's always filming himself, the bloke's a narcissist, he even films himself eating a pie
Good job he is working on his own or his mate would have something to say about his technique to laying the bed, a right hander wouldn't lay the bed turning himself around as this guy did, and perping the brick is much preferred.
Sites need to start cracking down on people not buttering properly. Just as bad as top and tailing. Phat perp at the end. Apart from that neat and quick just wounded want to point his work!

Clean tidy work,slight criticism is the back of his purps are not quite full with they way he butters them up.
Purps? Lol
Banjo player, lad needs to join a band the way that line is going up and down
My two cents is he should focus on using the tip of the trowel, instead of so far back. Cleaner, and more control. Itd probably cut down on a lot of the line twanging too.
Does the morter, keep the bricks together,or keep them apart,??
Yes

i bet the lad's you employ dont do that xD
That's why I dont employ anyone. You know that saying. Want something doing, do it yourself

Tidy and quick very good work man I'll have you in my gang🤙
Line twanger!Would do my head in being on the line with him!
Paul Hicks grow up
Yep . Butter the brick youre laying ! Tidier too !
Ashley Pickering 💋
@@paulhicks778 thats what i was thinking would do my head in that line bouncing about like a guitar string

The guy looks like a good clean trowel who perhaps has let his technique slip regarding the perps ! This of course can easily be rectified.
Absolutely brilliant,get em lashed in Cha!!
Not a big fan of butter directcly on the wall... Alot of empty joint.
Much more efficient. Make sure you butter heavy enough.
Share the line
Just built my first wall in garden and it took me hours to put that many bricks down and my cement kept going off in no time for some reason.
Charlie do you lay those type of brick a certain way? I mean with the dark spot to the right. It seems to contrast better or is it my eyes still full of gobbo?
A bit rugged. Going to need an extra long brick on the end 😂
Yeah hes back a bit 👍👍
Excellent technique you should give the camera Speedy gaz and Big Alan Stu they could help with new material..
What do they put in the space between the bricks?
What size ar3 those celcon blocks and what’s the 3 quarter measurements
Super job !!! 👍

If he'd butter the brick before he lays it, he woudn't touch the line so much.
Spot on full perp good bed
Lines moving all over the place, good job your onya own there.
He seems like a good bricklayer
Looks good, just hope the perps are full
A good wall everyone's different as long it is to required spec and is passed of well done.
He must have learned in Canada 🇨🇦 that’s the real way to lay and spread
He should drag the brick horizontally instead of going straight down, not to be confused with pic and dip when you drag the perp
He’s quick
I don’t think the last brick he was going to lay would fit
Look at the one below joint is like a mouses ear lol
Think it’s not been shown for a reason lol
He just needs to get some jelly brick then he can stretch it 2 whatever size he needs
Excellent job very good bricklayer👌🤜
Would do my head in twanging the line all the time 🙈🙈
1 of my pet hates
Correct way to lay
Chooooo choooooo there’s a train coming get off the line
I like your work
Tidy and quick, perps a little half full though :/
Good lad
The guys on his own so the movement of the line is disturbing know one!! Why do people need to keep saying the same thing! Great technique 👍🏼
Thats the way most brick layers do it in Philadelphia
Added pressure of being filmed probably hasn't helped. I reckon he's sound that lad
I’m guessing he knows there isn’t another brickie laying to the same line,. He probably wouldn’t twang the line as much if there were, what do you think?
The lad is under pressure being filmed give him a break. I bet he is alot better than most of you who are leaving comments

Nice trowel skills years of practice and careing for young lad well done DONE well ✌️
Very Similar style to you Stu... 🤙🏻
That’s the way I was taught
Why do people go into jobs and not take pride in their work,its liked their forced to do a job they dont wanna do
💜👍
Watch out for those big trowels......after a couple of years your elbow, shoulder and wrist will give out.
Thought KC was your dad
They have a blow down mate
Ruff on purps, like you stu.
we cant all be perfect like you can we jonathan.
Dont criticise hes probably on price and laughing all the way to the bank whilst others are jealous on measily day work.
What does the dog say?
Thats the technique they show us in school in Canada (quebec)
Takes too long making mortar look pretty. Lays brick quickly tho

Nothing worse then a line twanger 🤨
Give him a break, he's hanging his washing out
He’s ok
Play us a tune
Hes good uneven perps towards the window reveal pencil joint and 15mill though who who cares though really get them down
You cared enough to comment
I got no beef with that. Nobody else on the line with him so its all good to butter on the wall. Good stuff.
Tip and run
And most bricks laid upside down
He constantly hits the line
Not very good in my eyes
Stuuuuuuuuu
Send me another picture like that on TH-cam on nowhivis. Jacket 😀😀😀
12 “ way too big get plenty on a 10
I prefer 11".
Nothing more nothing less
@@benharwin6470 what about after 6 months when you've lost an inch on it ?
Увек најбољи!
Faster
Sweatpants????
Very slow and too much mortar on beds
Not really
