Don’t know why I’m so bothered by the lack of updates and changes. Disappears as he is doing the countdown (actually genuinely worried for his mental health etc), comes back from skiing having not finished - the major promise to us all…because “he knew he had to and shame on the doubters”…comes back without a word re having to be in…and now no BATH! I’m at a loss..where’s the accountability?? (I am being facetious here) but honestly…we bought into his transparency etc…and now it’s just ignored? Say something.
I guess he was giving us time to sign up to his newsletter and checking for updates behind that paywall. Since I'm taking a total guess here... Most of us didn't buy into that thing he's gonna upload for a while and rince and repeat the formula
@@talkintakos5072 I was that guy - paid to go behind the curtain and there was more of the same…no updates / background etc. just blogs on the past London house. It’s bizarre…I’m still here though 😂
@richardhardiman5973 have to admit I am fully aligned with ur feedback. This post seemed very disorganised. Before Xmas he was going on about his bath and the complexities of installing it. Now out of the blue, bath completely gone without any explanation and he is now looking at installing a shower!!!! We used to have daily updates where I could see some tiny progress from one video to another. Now, we get one video a week and I honestly don’t see what has happened in terms of progress from the previous week. It is a complete shamble!!!!!
It's so bad that I am now convinced this is not a viable building and just a TH-cam Ad revenue. This building will not be habitable the way he has gone about it and it just shows that he has zero trade experience.
I apologise in advance if you will find this comment rude, but why does the creator need to give to any of you guys an update about his life, it’s his life and he is choosing what he will put out there. If I were you I would just move on. As you said he might not be very well with his mental health and I don’t believe comments like that will help. I recently watched some of his videos and now I am seeing all the negative comments. I am sure at some point everything will make sense to you that watch regularly 😊
I was actually really invested into this series and thought this guy was genuine. Now I’ve come to realise that his videos are nothing but Ad revenue generators. Not serious build videos. What a disgrace.
Told you about all that stuff 4 weeks ago, you’d have saved yourself a lot of hassle. Done a lot of stuff backwards. Always put the floor down first then build the structure on top. Also insulate between the joists so you don’t build the floor up too high, costing headroom
50mm is nothing. I'd like to know the u-value calculation. Not being a dick, just don't think it will meet building regulations, which will be required if it's going to be habitable.
Seems crazy not to put insulation under the floor. even my brother did that in his garden shed. 😂 50mil insulation isn't really enough. would be if you insulated under as well!! Also no vapour barrier?
I was thinking that about the noggins!! Shame really, if he goes to town a bit on insulation he could basically heat it with a light bulb in the winter 😂
May i say ive used all makes of tools over the years and non of them are infallible.. The one thing i like about dewalt is they are relatively mid priced, and if you register all your gear online you generally get an extended warranty which is well worth it .
Why are we going backwards in time? Your latest update showed a floor already fitted.. I’ve been defending you but now I’m starting to side with very the same people I were defending you against- WHAT HAPPENED TO THE 7 DAY COUNT DOWN & YOUR DISAPPEARANCE WITH 0 EXPLANATION.. I had recommended your content to so many people and you’re now making me look incompetent with your credibility- Pls finish where you left off and stop uploading unrelated nonsense
if you hadnt done so much preaching in your videos, about your good attitude etc, for litterally weeks lol, i wouldn't be so bothered by how you didn't explain a thing when something has clearly gone wrong. it just makes it seem like you think you are better than your audience. I'm gonna unsub cause I dont think this is going to be compelling to watch anymore
This seems strange, ply floor, insulation boards on top so the soft insulation foam will be walked on even though there’s another layer on top. Surely this will give a non solid floor and will compress the foam over time making it less effective and also reducing the floor height leading to gaps up to everything. I’m just a DIY’er so maybe completely wrong.
Dewalt and bosh is the only thing coming into our home. they are the only thing that survives for a long time. and if they do break they have good warantes.
Don't watch these videos if you want to learn how to use a circular saw safely. The bit where he cuts a bit of ply resting on his knee almost had me ringing for an ambulance on his behalf.
Chris, where do you get your wall insulation boards from, also do you recommend any from previous experience? Every merchant tries to charge £150 delivery, other than places like Wickes & B&Q that are treble the price
Not Chris obviously but personally for pir I either use cut price insulation or get them from selco/ local builders merchants. Usually much cheaper than the big brand shops. If you're after a lot of it might be worth looking at seconds.
Good to see you back doing content. But are you not going to address you going AWOL and worrying a lot of your subscribers? Now, you don't owe any of us anything, and that's fair enough, I will continue to watch anyway. But I think it would be the decent thing to do to at least acknowledge the people you had worrying.
Im not overly sure why everyone has been toxic. The lad doesn't owe any of us anything if he decides to go on holiday, then that's him doing what he wants to do. People are allowed holidays. It's literally got nothing to do with any of us. we are along for the ride, and that's just enjoy the content and crack on with your lives.
this has got to be a joke! we are being punkd 100% video after video of digging a hole. now without any comment the hole is no more. no more bath. wtf is this lol Chris, what you are recording is actually good. the videos are just shite. instead of these 8 minute pointless videos showing 5 seconds per task. why not increase the length of the video. reduce the nonsense upsells. and explain things better.
Indeed, I find it better to go for the package deal rather than buying à la carte. I hope you enjoyed your down time. Got all de-stressed and whatnot. I thought you were starting to look pretty haggard there before you disappeared.
I hope you're well Chris, good to see you back posting. Sometimes it's good to take a break and get some perspective, which I’m assuming is what's happened. Seems like you're making progress now you've obviously decided against the bath (good call). Would love a brief update on what's happened and where you're at now with the build and you personally, have you moved in etc. Might keep the neggy comments at bay. ❤
The bath is now going on the roof - made from an upturned skylight.

You surely should have put insulation in the floor and some sort of damp prevention
I was wondering about a water barrier. Shouldn’t there be plastic under the plywood floor?
What happened to bath???
I was actually really invested into this series and thought this guy was genuine. Now I’ve come to realise that his videos are nothing but Ad revenue generators. Not serious build videos. What a disgrace.
Thought we dropping a bath in? I feel like I keep missing info. So invested in this but it’s driving me mad 😅
5.0 is the diameter of the screw not the strength
Told you about all that stuff 4 weeks ago, you’d have saved yourself a lot of hassle. Done a lot of stuff backwards. Always put the floor down first then build the structure on top. Also insulate between the joists so you don’t build the floor up too high, costing headroom
You should consider digging a hole.
Why is there no floor insulation?! This is all absolute madness. Yes, still here as well.
Did u watch the video? from 5:00 he explains in the CAD there will be 50mm of insulation sandwiched in the floor
50mm is nothing. I'd like to know the u-value calculation. Not being a dick, just don't think it will meet building regulations, which will be required if it's going to be habitable.
@@julianvermeersch2160You’re right that I missed that, but 50mm of JAB is surely miles off what’ll be helpful.
Yes I think 100mm EPS is standard.
In-between joists 100mm /150mm.wpyld have been perfect ...crazy not to have it in a void
I know you want to do things on the cheap but where is insulation and if you have a load of rain you will have a pond under your floor🥴😫
All those people who were concerned for him and told him not to do the sunken bath. Totally ignored 🤦🏻♂️
Seems crazy not to put insulation under the floor. even my brother did that in his garden shed. 😂
50mil insulation isn't really enough. would be if you insulated under as well!!
Also no vapour barrier?
This guy has some idea of what he is doing, but at the same time he is clueless
@@fabscams4136 He's like a man who has been given a hammer for Christmas.
Yes insulate between the joists is a better approach. Although he has so many additional 4x2 noggins between joists that looks difficult....
I was thinking that about the noggins!! Shame really, if he goes to town a bit on insulation he could basically heat it with a light bulb in the winter 😂
May i say ive used all makes of tools over the years and non of them are infallible.. The one thing i like about dewalt is they are relatively mid priced, and if you register all your gear online you generally get an extended warranty which is well worth it .
Why are you not insulting the floors? What about vapor barriers?
The most hilarious thing would be if this is a big troll and he’s gonna stretch the videos out for 2 years
Why are we going backwards in time? Your latest update showed a floor already fitted..

It’s great to see the vision in sketchup. Looks sick! What is the corner structure behind the car?
Dewalt and bosh is the only thing coming into our home. they are the only thing that survives for a long time. and if they do break they have good warantes.

Nice house for a fox to live under
Insulation for floor also rats can eat their way in
Mate you got links to your newsletter and Patreon so I can give you some cash? 😂
Agreed. I wanted 2 additional batteries, and it was cheaper to get a whole new drill/driver kit than the batteries on their own. Crazy economics.😮

Sunken baths been knocked on the head then
Shame because there were 7 episodes of digging a hole.
Let’s hope he never builds a swimming pool…that’s at least a years worth of digging.

Chris you have an engaging enthusiastic personality that makes your videos very watchable. Good luck the build.

Hope you'll get sponsorship.
