Well done lads, you've done well on this so far. These type of remedial jobs are by far the worst (across all trades) and can be highly frustrating and demoralising, especially when you price for a certain time and it ends up taking double. Even worse is when you price work and customer thinks it's too much but really doesn't understand what is involved, nor the unknown risks once you start to take it all down. Difference is, those that are professional will still see it through to a quality finish and maintain their reputation, albeit through gritted teeth! Keep up the good work and look forward to seeing part 2.
Very true Matt . It was such a slog and a massive relief to get finished. 🥵🥵😔🧱👍🏽
A wee bonus at the scrap yard from all that lead 😉
😉🧱👍🏽
Learn so much just from watching these vids
It’s always so cool to hear this kind of feedback , makes us very proud , thanks Scott 🙏🏽🙏🏽🧱👍🏽🤙🏾
Just shows that with perseverance, skill and determination anything is possible.......good job you two.
Cheers Steve 🧱👍🏽
It's a good job that there are guys like yous two about to put right all of the botch jobs that the cowboys do. Well done, guys !
Looking forward to part two now !!
Cheers Ian 🧱👍🏼
Amazing video… the job was massive, but you gents continue to suit up, show up and get it done. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks pal 🧱👍🏽
Brave men tackling this job. Not faint of heart. I am impressed.
Thanks Roland 🧱👍🏽
Are you for real , it's just your average lintel replacement above a window , an operation performed up and down the country on a daily basis.
@@jeffreyloftus3617 No it’s not
Your living in a dream world , builders up and down the country are doing the same procedure day in and day out and on a far bigger scale than your job.
@@jeffreyloftus3617 . Dream world 😆😆. Just because loads of people do the same work doesn’t mean this job wasnt awkward .
We do dozens of lintels🤷🏼♂️
Hate to see y’all have a tough time but it sure makes a great video for us to see all the skill it takes to fix the worst problems.👍
Thanks Jesse 😁🧱👍🏽
Thanks again for another lintel video. Your videos gave me the confidence to do two bedroom windows to the rear of my 1930s house, they have the thing where the soldier course doesn't line up as well, so I did what you guys did on the house where you put blues over the French doors (and the bit of plasterboard came out so you could see down into the living room). Where you cut a brick in half and slotted the lintel inside it. Came out really well. Got the bathroom one to do next. Luckily there's just been the soldier and one course above so far so no need for props... yet. There are other windows which will need them though!
All the best, and thanks again.
Thanks Ross , glad out videos helped .
Good luck with the rest 🧱👍🏽
this is ace to watch. you guys do a cracking job. it must be really rewarding doing stuff like that and working together.
This job more frustrating than rewarding but we do love working together 😍🧱👍🏽
Can’t wait for this one bud that picture reminds me of a job I did in Portsmouth last year I lost most of the back of ya house luckily for me customer was at work so I done a runner real fast 👍
🤣🤣🧱👍🏽
What a wanker you are haha 😄 😆 🤣 😂 😅 😜
It looks like you have repaired a WONDER job boys, built by Stevie Wonder.
It was knackered 😬🧱👍🏽
Hi both, always look forward to Monday evening with the boys from Lancashire ! Hope you are both well.
Thanks very much , yes both good thanks . See you at 8.30 👍🏽🧱
Trouble with starting petrol disc cutter? Use primer button till airs out, choke on, push decompression button if it has one, pull over slowly- just turning over engine slowly with full throttle (some models dont allow throttle with choke) this will prime the system, once it fires by pulling slowly , take choke off and pull start quickly (Or half choke) use throttle .
This works for me.
Cheers Deano 🧱👍🏽
Wow! I'm glad you caught one of the rare sunny days in the UK on video! What a mess! Good thing they got the "Lintel's R Us" guys to fix them! Have a great week mates! Stay safe! Cheers from (very hot) Texas!
🤣🤣😎 cheers buddy , back down to 17 degrees now 🧱👍🏽
Joint Sealant/ Silicone on the lintel ... always a bad idea in my experience. Really enjoy your work and the attention to details. Thanks for letting us come along for the day !
Thanks pal 🧱👍🏽
A friend was thinking of buying a house and wanted me to have a look to see if she could extend the kitchen, when I took a look at the building, over every lintel the brickwork had expanded because of the angle irons rusting and blowing, the whole house had like an expansion joint running right round the house, I told them to walk away it would cost thousands to repair, they did walk away, next time I was around that area they had a go at fixing it yep they repointed it and didn’t fix the problem. all because of not rust proofing the angle iron and the crack had began to expand again, plus this was evident on many of the properties on that particular small estate, private builds as usual and no proper, clerk of works, great job lads took me back to the good old bad old days on the tools, looking for my marshalltown now to help out but you’re doing a much better job with me not on the scaffold 😇
Yes we usually get called after the first re point botch up has failed 🙄🧱👍🏽
Done so many of these jobs in the Brighton area for windows companies as many houses I have worked on don't have lintels on the outside skin relying on old wooden or metal frame windows. Can be very dusty old jobs. Most of the time I have disc cut out the bricks and cleaned them off and managed to put them back in to keep it looking the same.
Lucky always on the ground floor so I get 2 done in 1 day
🧱👍🏽
Steve, your channels is called Brick laying with Steve and Alex…. But your actual work is more then brick laying….. there’s lots of other equations….to consider over lapping other trades…. More please 👍
😁😁🧱👍🏽
hi guys fantastic work as usual ime a bricky of 65 so this is not a critisiceing i think i wud have put the tile course with the lugs facing out as they can act as a drip off maybe the customer didnt want that still fantastic workman ship i look after 6 brickys wish they were half as good and through as you two
Thanks for the tip Graham 🧱👍🏽
I look forward to seeing windows two and three completed.
I like the nice, tidy appearance of the tiles on top of the brick course.
It's the perfect answer to an awkward problem.
You've got your work cut out for you there, but I just know that the house is in good, safe hands with "Steve and Alex," sorting things out.
Thanks pal 🙏🏽🧱👍🏽

No better combination than a Father & Son team, well thought out, well planned and well executed 👍 Just as a side note, Trestles and Boards are now illegal to use in Jersey, you have to put a scaffold up now for anything over 600mm off the floor. 🤦🏻
Thanks pal .

just found this video, excellent work , it's amazing the low level of some builders I used to use for that span a piece of scrap galvanised angle at least 10mm thick and 150 on a side very cheap and effective if it was totally enclosed we used galvanised pallet beams 2 of them with the ends cut off almost no deflection , the other thing I used to do was preload the lintel, you fit one end at the correct height then use a hydraulic jack lifting the other end to apply the correct preload to the beam so the structure above wasn't affected by the changes, it's a simple job to do and avoids all manner of settlement and cracking, cost £20 for a 4 ton bottle jack you just use a straight edge to get maybe a quarter inch of bend over the length so the lintel is taking the applied load and not the brickwork,
🤯🤯🧱👍🏽
@@SteveAndAlexBuild I avoided a lovely one in a shop I bought Gosforth on the high st number 115 26 ft I think it was pitch pine timber lintel one side was a doorway then an iron column at 4 ft then the main span then a 6 by 12 pitch pine slab end on vertically then a doorway, built in 1850 I backed quietly away leaving it for the future the pitch pine slab was rotten on the bottom so I put 4 big iron angles to lift it up, it's been sold now but it's a nightmare of a job for someone

In engineering terms, the upstand steel is the web and the horizontal element would be the flange. The upstand could be called a rib if it is part of a T Beam.
Thanks Michael 😁🧱👍🏽
The rosemary tiles make an attractive feature (usually on the sills of window openings), a clever idea.

Anyway cracking video - as always. Thanks for sharing 👊

Wish we had masonry people around here in the US that did lintel repair. Hard to find people that will do the job correctly.

Hi lads…sorry HEY YOU GUYS😁most trouble with saws comes from flooding it, I’ve learnt when this happens too turn all switches off for a minute and go again with a few pulls with it all still off, clears the carburettor… the kick says it’s clear then turn on and pull. Goes every time👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 great work again auld pals🤝
Cheers Bob , yeah it’s flooding a reckon , you can smell it then it’s wet out the exhaust when it fires up .🧱👍🏽😁
thank you for the entertaining views! One question: what kind of blade do you use in your reciprosaw. I do not seem to be able to get a specific stone/brick.concrete blade for my recipro in the Netherlands....

hi Steve and Alex, the reason the lintel has rotted out is because of the cavity tray which Create moisture behind the tray.
I worked for a insurance company in the late 80s going around cutting the tray's out worked a treat The whole estate is still going strong with out them.
Good look any way lad's, liked the work you did with A&E
Thanks pal 😁🧱👍🏽
Yea your putting cavity tray over lintel now so learning I paint mine to plus fold ends up just done one last week got 5 more do done alot over years

A horror story indeed but the right guys are here to sort it out!

Thanks very much and hi over in Belgium 🧱👍🏼😁
Had your work cut out on this one guys, never seen such a bad example of lintels like the ones you had to deal with. But then again, put back to an excellent job yet again, well done. 👍Hope Alex's back didn't suffer much. Use a bench to sit the cutter when trying to get it started. Less strain then on his back.
Is there a part two to this one S&A? Would love to see the end result.

hi guys nice looking job shame you moaned about a couple of bricks falling from that lovely solid wall 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 take care gents
🤨🤨🧱👍🏽
Steve/ Alex how old is this building from the look 60yrs? surprised when you said lime mortar still there you go, and those lintels l have seen my share of botch jobs l feel for you when you price this kind of job hope you had an understanding customer great video looking forward to part two 👍
Thanks pal part 2 out soon 🧱👍🏽
What a cow of a job and loosing money ? Two technical questions if i may.
1) Why is there a mixture of brick and block on the inner wall. 2) How long do the wooden lintels last.
From what i could see you were in charge of the situation and got on with it. 👍👍
Question 1 Doug not got a clue , my guess is they were rough arses .
As for Timber I’m not sure but kept dry they last years 💪🏼💪🏼🧱👍🏽

@@SteveAndAlexBuild I replaced what was 150 year old safe lintels on a sandstone building, must have been 20 windows and most where in not bad condition, proper old hardwood make a great camp fire when away 🎣🎣🎣👍🏻
@@Bobthebrickie 😁🧱👍🏽
Fascinating.
I assume that the bricks are under compression between the lintel and the higher rows. Not being a bricklayer how do you ensure that the upper bricks are sitting on a solid layer of mortar (without trapped air) and that the new mortar does not shrink. I assumed that you would tap in layers of slate or something to ensure that the old bricks and new bricks are under compression against each other.
If you don’t over time won’t it settle and you will get more cracks?
It looks rather dangerous that the heavy upper courses might collapse as you are doing the job.
🧱👍🏽
@@SteveAndAlexBuild The lintel supports a triangle of wall with a base length the width of the lintel stepped up to one brick in the middle. Otherwise the loads get carried down the walls either side. I'm not suggesting the bricks can be thrown in bit they are not like the ones carrying full wall weight into the sides of the window.
@@davidelliott5843 exactly 👌🏼🧱👍🏽
I know it’s difficult to ask for more money but that was definitely a case of unknown or differing site conditions which most clients can’t wrap their brains around.There’s always the argument that you should have spent more time analyzing the scope but things happen and time is tight.
My proposals always leave me an off ramp to exit the job until these issues are addressed. On our contracts with owners or general contractors you can’t simply walk off or delay the job so you must keep working. And keep fighting for compensation. I do admire your work ethics.
Cheers Paul 🧱👍🏽
Great vids and learning loads from watching you work. Exactly which blade do you have in the reciprocating saw? Goes through the mortar like a knife through butter. Would be grateful if you can set me straight so I can go get one. Thank you.
Thanks pal . It’s a Bosch carbide tipped masonry blade . Toolstation sell them about £21 🧱👍🏽

many years ago I was looking at a property all lime built the agent was going on about how much it was a good easy restoration project, I was there with a client I just said the price was excessive for the work involved, the agent said show me this work, I just went to the rear inside wall where the plaster had fallen off and pulled a brick straight out of the wall it was actually liquid lime, never seen one so bad
Bloody hell 🤯🧱👍🏽
Nice work lads
🧱👍🏽
It doesn’t help when the brickwork above has been frogged ( laid frog down ) as there are voids in the bed joints and this creates less suction and more chance of bricks dropping. Nice work guys.
Thanks pal , yeah the bricks were double frog top and bottom 🧱👍🏽
I have a Stihl hedge cutter that gets used once or twice a year. After every use, I empty the fuel tank then run it until it stops and use the choke until it properly stops. That leaves no fuel or oil to clog the carburettor.
It's been going strong for 25 years so I think it's been the best way to keep it happy.
Cold start, fill the probing bulb. Full choke one pull. No choke nd another two pulls gets it going. Use choke as needed until it warms up. Too much priming (or choking) will flood it. Then it's game over until the excess evaporates.
Sounds good 🧱👍🏽
Hi Steve, any one mentioned you have put same video up twice? Or have i miss heard you! Cheers.
Not sure what you mean Dave 😬🧱👍🏽
hi great job , could the roof tiles have been flush to the face, instead of the overhang?, is there any reason for the stickout?, looks great
Thanks pal .The tiles act as a drip and shed water before it gets to the doors 🧱👍🏽
The steal iron rusted and picked the brick up,from the iron swelling from rust
Correct 👌🏼🧱👍🏽
Hi again Steve. I assumed there was a No 2 video showing completion of the second lintel. I’ve only got same video again. Or is it coming another day? Sorry to be a pain. Cheers.
Part 2 to follow 😁🧱👍🏽
Great video fellas, what was the name of the blade in the reciprocating saw though and is it better than a grinder?
Thanks .It’s a Bosch carbide masonry and yes as long as the mortar isn’t too hard 🧱👍🏽
i just did a lintel of a window this size, building built in 1880 with red sandstone, each stone weighing about 180 pounds, was my biggest nightmare trying to figure out how to keep the stones above the window from falling.
Not fun 😵💫👍🏽🧱
Cracking job fellas but in the back of your van is a disgrace!!

Sthil: full choke until it coughs, half choke and it'll probably start then off with choke straight away. If it coughs on half choke then start it no choke.

Assuming you bought your STIHL saw from a reputable dealer, take it back to them and get them to have a look at it. STIHL have fantastic aftercare, even more so when its still under warranty, It shouldn't be that hard to start since its brand new.

@@justbreakingballs my strimers a bit choke hungry on first start but i find you need very little priming on the fuel if there's already some in the bulb.
All my other STIHL gear is now cordless and don't think ill go back to 2 stroke for hedge trimmers/blowers etc, so much easier. Even my smaller lawnmower is now a STIHL battery one as its saves the back carrying the Honda up my customers steps!
@@HughzieTube sounds like a good set up you have there. When starting my ts410 I don't really pull the cord I just hold it and let the machine fall away using its weight to pull the cord if that makes sense. I'm not sure what Alex was doing to pull his back here, he's young enough to brush it off though.

say if you had a rendered wall (like my house) where would the weep holes go above a window. I don't have any, thanks
I don’t think they are really any use with render 🧱👍🏽
Rather than just putting the supports onto the brick itself , why didn't you put a beam or something across the 2 to support that full length of brickwork above...? Our neighbour has the exact same issue iwth a window with no lintel above it and all the brickwork above is cracking from the bathroom window down. Whoever does it will have a right job on because how you've done it there it wouldn't hold the brickwork above , they'd have to support the full width . Is that why you've not supported it fully because the brickwork above is pretty sound...???
Yes
