Fun and games indeed 😂🤣😂. Please add this to your garage conversion playlist.
Seeing your girls 'helping' you is always a treat. They are adorable.
Your slow and detailed voicing plus closeups of your build is and would have been something I appreciate/ed. I know it’s not a tutorial but it’s like being with a friend going through the trial and errors of a project, ie. The screw caps on the upper shower rail. Do enjoy 😉 you throwing in technical terms for some items 😆 Flappy Thing, Silver Thing 😆. 🤣 Especially enjoyed the role play with women’s voice 🤣🤣 for a new Silver Thing 🤣🤣. So grateful for the intro, had to watch it at least 5 times before watching the rest of the video, because watching it multiple times as the outro in the last one 😘
Pure concentration at 12:18!
Top tips.
1. Put cardboard/dust sheet or similar in the shower tray to prevent marks, damage or things ending up down the waste (for those who have a more open type outlet).
2. Masking tape over silicone before drilling.
3. Mask the area where the uprights go, makes it easy to mark up fixings without borrowing the eyeliner, and saves the metal struts from marking the tiles.
4. Wear gloves if you have to use any force when piecing things together, those frames are razor sharp.
All good points and tips. Thanks 🙏
Nice job. Good work by your beautiful assistants too! Looks really neat.
Great job Tim, it's really taking shape now.
Great video - job well done. I liked your little helpers. The silver button incident was funny - in hindsight I guess for you. PS: Thank you for explaining that silicone only goes on the outside of showers and the reason why. It is a pet peeve of mine seeing mouldy silicone inside showers! 👍😀
I laughed and laughed about calling the company up for a little silver bit! 🤣
Thank you for sharing this video. It's the best Fitting a Shower Enclosure demo on you Tube, Delightful young helpers too. The mystery of the missing clip. Did it fall into your back pocket... but "it was there all the time" brilliant. "Daddy you've got pockets"... I recall my brother saying as you mention don't put the sealant inside. But, before I finally do mine which is a job that should have been done months ago. I'll share the video with my brother in case he notices anything I might have missed. Might wait for him to visit and assemble and fit it together.
😂😂😂LOL what a shot getting that in you pocket 👍👍👍
There are some benefits to filming everything. Never would have found it!
@@TheRestorationCouple 😂😂you right there mate 👍👍👍
Wouldn't have believed it until you slowed it down, hilarious.
@@leegreveson 😂😂😂👍👍
thanks, I have been putting this job off in my home and thinking of getting an installer, You have changed my mind. A million thanks for the silicon tips. My only downfall is I don't have two superstars to help me, the girls are fantastic. Keep up the good work.
Hahaha one in a million shot - and you caught it!
Loving the videos fell👍🏻
Great to watch you through your journey. Just started on my project after chainsawing my way round the garden to find boundaries. Now I must get on with something in the house 😕 definitely gives me a nudge when I watch you👍🏼
Aaah, so funny that silver cap bit - can totally see that happening :)
Bless… you never be leave it..Great job as usable thanks for shearing.
those girls are adorable lol
makes the diy a pleasure i'm sure :-/
keep up the good work ...
Pure comedy lol
A new marking tool for my toolbox: an eyeliner. I'm off to the supermarket now!
Hi, great video, just went to fit one exactly the same and the fixed panes are a lot smaller than the curved ones, are yours the same or different heights, cheers Mike
What screws did you use for the handles? I'm fitting a quadrant shower that looks identical but theres only 30mm screws left for the handles that look way to long?
Always usefull to have extra pairs of hands on tap.Start em young.
Brilliant, you can’t make it up. Point to note; If I do DIY with my kids ensure I either a) seal my pockets or b) wear something with no pockets...
lol For one moment I thought your little helpers were trying to pull off the biggest wind up on their dad. The squeaky voice was pure Will from the Inbetweeners lol
What did it say regarding sealing the frame to the tray and rails, there’s many different thoughts on it as to stop Leakes do you seal the out side or both with silicone, great video easy explanation by you thanks..
I’ve only ever done outside. Anywhere else is just asking for trapped moisture and mould...
It reminds me of that classic Agatha Christie tale : the mystery of the missing silver cap! Also where do I get one of these hoodies? I need one in my life!
😂It was just a sample for now. We will yet and get a few things sorted and made available soon. 👍
Murphy’s law in action. Well done girls, never to young to learn things
Where are these shower doors from ?! I like the single man installation 😃
One in a million chance it landed in ya pocket, poor girl need ice cream after that lol
I'm bit late to the party on these excellent videos Tim. Possibly a bit old school but surely a photographer should have a chinagraph pencil to hand?
Closest thing nowadays is a stylus! 🙄
@@TheRestorationCouple Ha Ha! Yep! I'm old school for sure. Still got Lupes and Chinagraphs dotted around the place. BTW I noticed a router jig in your Birthday Cabinet vid. Did you make that yourself?
ah kids they subscribe to the Chuckle brothers method I see "to you" "to me" :)
I think your throw away comment about getting a quadrant over a rectangular frame may come back to haunt you. We bought a house with a similar shower enclosure in a wet room. The unit is now about 10 years old and I am about to pull it out and install rectangular unit. Although it is the least used unit in the house the rollers are failing and starting to stick and am unable to get replacements, it is a nightmare to keep clean etc. One thing that I did add - Not sure if these are available in the UK - was a shower dome ( tinyurl.com/y53mj7xd ) to all our units and they are brilliant at keeping the humidity in the unit. Thanks for the videos, I never miss them. p.s. have lost a couple of screw caps down the drain that have randomly fallen off!
Funny funny
Can I just check what you said about only sealing on the outside. I’ve not fitted an enclosure myself but every one we’ve had fitted has also been sealed on the inside. Is only sealing the outside definitely the way to go (your reason for doing so sound logical) or are there 2 schools of thought?
It’s the only way I’ve read or seen it recommended. I can see the reason people may think internal is best though.
Hi where can I find the manual for this shower???? Anoone
You may want to install a shower dome to prevent steam filling entire room.
Hopefully the fan that is going to the side will do a good enough job.
Hi Tim, great video. Just one tiny detail that you probably haven't noticed - you dont have a shower!
Minimalist 😂
Is there link to the qaudrant shower please. ?
