Hi Chris. Nice interesting upload. I love the narration too. When the line in the brickwork was cut out, it looked wonky - was this a visual thing because of the brick archwork? I couldn't work it out. Thanks in advance 🙂
Not entirely sure what you mean, the arch will make it look strange but also when grinding the grove you can’t always get it pertly strait, but when its leaded in and filled with mortar or in my job lead mate, then it fills in and looks straight
@@foundationgood123 that's exactly what I thought it was. I'd figured grinding it might have caused it but like you said, once finished it's not visible. Not a criticism, just wondered. 🙂
Can the front of the canopy be changed if it has rotten away and would you have to support the roof of canopy to do so ? As mine has rotten and the easiest fix would be that if possible
@@cbuzz866 do you mean the fascia boards are soft and the wood deteriorated? You can remove them and change the boards. Regarding the rafters if they’re ok you don’t need to support the canopy
I think on such a small job and with it being open plan it will be ok, I wouldn't however use it on a larger enclosed roof its better to use the breathable understaters membrane as we do on extensions etc.
Very nice Chris. Interesting, the lead and tiling work. Pretty decent editing too.
Beautiful job as always and once you painted the arch in white it made the door pop 👍
Lovely Job Chris as always.
Looks great pal
Thanks 👍
Looks very nice and neat!
Smart job Chris 👍👍
Fab job, really like the frontage now👍
Beautiful job
Nice job Chris. 😎
Looks lovely
Canopy perfect👍 French doors Looks good but not practical for me, to get in you need open 2 doors🤷♂️ and after another one door🤣
Nice little job that I wouldn't use the plastic membrane as a underlay but I suppose as it's all out in the open it wouldn't be a issue 👍
Thank you for sharing. How much did the door cost?
Approximately £900
Did you make the timber frame/trusses or can you buy a kit? Looks great btw
I usually make them, however with the arch I didn't have time so I bought this one!
where did you buy it from mate?

Nice job but I would have at least primed the backs of all the timbers to help stop them rotting from behind where they abut the brickwork.
Yes we did that

Are those arch frames prefabricated? Are they expensive?
Yes off line and surprisingly no they weren’t…,cheaper than trying to make them
Since the door has a curved brick line, why didn't you make a curved canopy?
well that's a good point but the client wanted this style as they had seen the one we did at her daughters house!
Hi Chris. Did you need to toe and heel the glass or were the doors narrow enough that that wouldn’t be necessary for this one? Great job
Yes toe and healed then bro
Isn’t using lead dangerous?
Hi Chris, just wondered what areas of the country you cover. cheers
Staffordshire and Cheshire
Hello Chris nice video....just wondering I know it will sound silly but where the letterbox?
They have an outside letter box on the wall, the client didn’t want one in the door.!
@@foundationgood123
Thank you Chris for the clarification...
Hi
Do you cover Stockport? If so how do I make contact please?
Can i come to learn with you please
Nice job but that window frame above the doors needs to be atleast painted the same as the doors
Yes, I did mention at the start the client was gonna have all the windows sprayed to match the French Doors!
DPC is not breathable it will cause the timber to sweat and rot. Sorry Chris just a observation.
I think on such a small job and with it being open plan it will be ok, I wouldn't however use it on a larger enclosed roof its better to use the breathable understaters membrane as we do on extensions etc.
Should have replaced arch section I’m anthracite on white to match the door.
They’re going to be sprayed along with all the windows matey!
You missed out the part showing fitting the lead into the long top groove you cut
Code 3 lead!!
Give you a tenner for the old doors
😆😆😆
No roof tile nails were harmed making this video.
Nice tidy job boys 👌🏼🧱👍🏼
Thanks Steve, trust you’re keeping in the shade😆😆😆

Прошу прощения, чем вас обидел заказчик что вы ему такую безвкусицу сделали? ))
Soakers go on top of the tile not the batten so you know for next time 🙄
You haven’t picked up on no tile lap then…?
@@justycrusty 😮😮 only just seen it 😂
your soakers are not fitted correctly look in leadwork book for correct detail
