Must be a weight off customers mind being able to watch your videos pal and see how much you care about your work and to such a high standard you do every job top guy
really like those brick, owner made a great choice. they almost have a handmade quality, great blend with the original house also. Beautiful job! 👍 👍 👍
When bricks are done perfect like this they look just as good as stone would love to see some stone walls going up, keep up the amazing work Stu all the best ✌️
The brickwork looks brilliant Stu, really tidy 👍 looking forward to a video on the doors going in mate. Appreciate the time and effort you put into the videos must be hard work 👍
Great to see a builder taking pride in their work. Very refreshing indeed and such a contrast to the cowboys that self certify their own very poor work (under those inadequte schemes such as Fensa ).
Got a question for you stu regarding weep holes when doing a new extension if the out side is to be rendered or pebbledash do you leave them sticking out more so they be level to the finish or do they come in different sizes.
Lovely bit of brickwork. Are the raked out joints the customers choice, or your preferred way of pointing? Either way it compliments those bricks nicely
Hi Stu, great job as usual. IS the split brick course purely a decorative feature?..( I am not in the building trade) It is a very nice look. Thanks for the videos, i love them.
think soldiers above openings better than random split better not a criticism of Stu or his content just my opinion great bloke and total respect to him for what he does
gave the customer the option of soldiers and she didnt want it also she wanted the splits in so your opinion doesnt matter david, i say this to everyone now who fires their opinion, its what the customer prefers and chooses not the people that watch the video but thanks anyway bud
@@Stucrompton1 Bit of a harsh response Stu. He went on to pay his respects to your work - he just had a different opinion. Nowt wrong with that. If that's what the customer wants then that's what they get. No need to tell him his opinion doesn't matter. It you extrapolate that approach there is potential for people to stop engaging with your channel. At the same time you will end up with respondees that only agree with your opinion - and IMHO that's not healthy for you or public discourse.
That 2 course split breaks up the expanse of brickwork very nicely. I was wondering what you were on about, when you were talking about split courses. But it works. Was that your artistic license or the architects lol. Class work.
Hey stew, im a Level 2 bricklaying apprentice, recently got fired but im happy that I did because they weren't bothered in teaching me anything, only bossed me around and complained, do you have any advice on finding a new employer? Thanks
Proose they are peepweeps to let any water out if it was the get inside the cavity it would run down the damp tray and out of those but they should never have to do their job if so you’ve got abit of problem with water getting in somewhere
Hi stu I have a question I'm trying to get into the trade I've done brick lying in college 3 years (entry to level 2) and had some experience on site as a hod for a while and then a improver. I was recently (2 weeks ago) working as a improver loveing life but unfortunately the job after a couple of months got let go. I've been really struggling to find sites that take improvers on and I'm feeling just really deflated with it all. Do you have any tips or pointers for me? I'm based in london 20 minutes from central and there are untold builds but no one seems to wakt improvers. Thanks stu loving the videos!!
The course of splits are just an added subtle feature, what are some of the jobs your on with at the moment?
I'm 15 In year 10 and I think I would want to become a brick layer looks really cool plus as I do construction for some of my lessons
Hi Stu,
I’m a DIY guy, Paramedic by trade. Just addicted to you content and have learnt loads off of you. Pls keep the content coming. 👍🏻👍🏻

Again, top work and great video mate.
Neat work Stu.
Very neat good job
Love bricklaying but also love digging footings out
Should of had windows either side! Looks a box lol but your work is by far the beat I’ve seen in 15 years on the trade!
Lovely bit of pointing there
very very tidy, nice job matey
Another top job stu👍👍
Beltin Marra hope you’re well
Enjoyable viewing, while having breakfast
Quality work stu! Love those bricks, definitely some of your best work 👍
Beautiful work and amazing brick detailing love it, keep it up mate 👍👍
beautiful
Top job mate. Why do u have the 2 course of splits in?
Got a question for you stu regarding weep holes when doing a new extension if the out side is to be rendered or pebbledash do you leave them sticking out more so they be level to the finish or do they come in different sizes.
Love your videos stu.👍👍
Handsome work.
did I miss where you made the top ceiling?
Woo cool job brotha
Looking good Stu :-)
Question, why you made 2 walls.....? because of the weather or it is how standart constructions are build there in uk....? 🤔👍🏻🇵🇪
Lovely bit of brickwork. Are the raked out joints the customers choice, or your preferred way of pointing? Either way it compliments those bricks nicely
How much total cost on this extension from foundation to finish please let me know thanks brother
Hi stu, just wondering why you had to put two courses of cuts in?
This looks great what would be the typical cost of an extension this size with all the same features
Best Bricklayer on TH-cam, that muck talks it's way onto your Trowel Stu 👌👌
What's with the tiny small brick near the top?
Nice brickwork
I love your videos 🙂thanks
What’s going on top to finish off brickwork? Copings? And is there a internal outlet on roof or does it come out to a hopper?
Putting the video out today buddy to show that 👍
excellent work Stu best Boss lol
Another cracking job Stu, good thing you got in the practice with the mini bricks eh?
ha yeah john
Original pointing colour is more limey and your new pointing is darker? I got the same issue with my new orangery 😏😏
Hi Stu, great job as usual.
IS the split brick course purely a decorative feature?..( I am not in the building trade)
It is a very nice look.
Thanks for the videos, i love them.
Yeah bob just something different

David Hall completely agree.
Am I correct in saying one side of the extension finishes beyond the building line of the house?
Yes because it was moved over due to manhole
That 2 course split breaks up the expanse of brickwork very nicely. I was wondering what you were on about, when you were talking about split courses. But it works. Was that your artistic license or the architects lol. Class work.
I just have to ask....is the split course to replicate the same on the house....just curios?!
No just a bit of a feature
@@Stucrompton1 oh right! Thanks for the reply! Looks good!
Why did you not run your courses into original brickwork?
Because the house gauge was out
Why the split?
Bit of a feature customer requested
@@Stucrompton1 I would have suggested brick on edge,less work for you and easier on the eye. Nice work Stu.
Nice job as ever. What’s the name of the tune you use for your opening videos?
Why no side windows?
Like concerteza 👍🇧🇷
Hi Stuart, really nice job. Does the cavity tray go all the way around because of the parapet? If so what do you do at the 90 degree corner? Over lap?
Yeah as best you can with a piece
Thanks for the reply. Pretty cool extension it's going to be when completed. I'm looking forward to seeing the finished article!
Hey stew, im a Level 2 bricklaying apprentice, recently got fired but im happy that I did because they weren't bothered in teaching me anything, only bossed me around and complained, do you have any advice on finding a new employer? Thanks
Chiki_Briki_Lord I went through the same thing a few months ago I know the feeling mate
Just keep trying pal. Drive round to sites join bricklaying jobs Uk on Facebook
Awesome video buddy
Why do you put 2 rows of small brick?
Hi stu. Another great vid love your work. Im not a bricklayer why the split bricks. Keep up the great work.
They are just a feature i think, the splits.
Cheers pal
Why did you need to put a cavity tray near the power pit?
Because it's above the roof so any water ingress either side can leave. yes?
Is it too take the water ingress away as you are above the roof?
That's a nice feature to hide the GRP roof edge, extra work, but looks so much better.
Yassssss!!! 💪🏻
thanks dear :)
Which country are you from
Hey Stu, what are those red things in the perps for?
Enjoyed watching the video :)
Proose they are peepweeps to let any water out if it was the get inside the cavity it would run down the damp tray and out of those but they should never have to do their job if so you’ve got abit of problem with water getting in somewhere

How long did that take to build stu. Great job.
You guys across the pond don't like windows?
There are kitchen units going on the walls, did you think about that 😁
@@Stucrompton1 no I did not as I did not know that. I am not that intimate with your project Gov.
