takes a big man to not only admit to a mistake but record it and share with the world, Integrity is on short supply in this world lately, good job sir.
Everyone can make a mistake, but knowing how to gracefully fix it and own it is a completely different story. Well done Steve! The extension looks really good finished out. Nice work. 5 stars. Cheers from your friend in Texas!
Nice job apart from you should fit the cavity closers before fitting the door and window frames,also most building inspectors don’t usually allow rainwater into foul drainage.
Ive got to do exact same on my extension except building inspector wants me to run it to all around to the front where i have a soak away in , it means digging all of it out and dropping pipes to allow fall from the back ...except im going to put in manhole like this . Its not big roof area its madness .
@@SteveAndAlexBuild the original house rain water from front and back just goes to a pitt of rubble and that's a much bigger roof . Good enough for the goose, good enough for the gander .
Thanks for taking time out to edit this Steve. I know you are pressed for time as still working down south. That extension is a cracking job now it can be seen with the roof on. 👍👍👍
@@SteveAndAlexBuild Lol. Reading the comments on a Sunday morning I'm gobsmacked how many settee building inspectors follow your site 😂🤪😀 If i was watching someone doing something that i was skilled at i would NEVER say " why didn't you do this or that " even if i had my own thoughts.
@@SteveAndAlexBuild it takes a good man to go back I once had to travel back to Nottingham just over an hour to hose 1 car off I mean it was minimal if the drove the car it would have blown off by time the got back 😂 another I once had to go back to bridlington 1 hour 45 away to hose a garage door off did the work cleaned up but the door was open when it got shut after we left shite was on the face that was facing up I had to go back as that was insurance work or I would have tried to knock something off bill as ya know travel and derv time it's often cheaper to pay out and both parties win but insurance companies don't work like that 😏
@@SteveAndAlexBuild I know not everyone is perfect its how we overcome issues or deal with stuff not seen sometimes. It's hard enough to do the job and do it right sometimes and forgetting something like this just makes us that bit better for the next time. As I bet you nether forget to put another in 😂
How could you possibly forget that?..... I have done exactly the same in the past!! Good of you to show it though as it shows your integrity and skills to overcome it . Best Regards to both of you. Bob ( Somerset).
Hahaaaaas I saw a little plumber crack while you were bending down busting out the hole in the cavity. I thought your a brick layer not a plumber 😂😂😂 Nice that you came back to finish what you forgot to do
You found yourself in a tight corner today Steve! :) At planning stage, I'd have put the downpipe not in the narrow side access making it even narrower, but in the back yard
Been watching you for a few days now steve, the way you time lapse, stop to explain the time lapse again is second to non! Excellent content well worth a like and sub
@@SteveAndAlexBuild the only thing I will say is your videos that have multiple parts are hard to find, need to be in some sort of playlist or even better, put a link to the next part of the video in the description because I seem to only watch half of a project then get lost into a new project. Constructive criticism 😁
Attention to detail brilliant again even putting plastic down the manhole to catch any bits. I wouldn’t have believed how much dirt came out of that hole.
Surely rain water should go directly to a soak-away? Current UK Building Regulations because grey water can create storm flooding, even better a storage tank that can recycle everything.
@@SteveAndAlexBuild we had one pulled off a inspector , he made us go down 7ft ,the tw+t! It was only for rainwater aswell , I’m with you as long as there’s no solids going down it
Pain in the arse but you got it sorted Steve. Shame you haven't got the magic click hay😂😂😂😂it's surprising how much more space you can get on a extention like that 👍👍👍👍
My patios sunk in the middle looks like a banana going away from the house. Saving up to redo it next year. I've got to run an ico channel the whole length plumb into storm water and dig a foul gully in so I can add an outdoor tap. Expecting it to be a lot of bloody hard graft. Even little bits like that are hard work. Fair play for going back and sorting it. Mark of a good tradesman. 👍

They do if it's an existing combined system you are working on.
I thought this too, I thought it had to be soak away for surface water?
i don't know how these cowboys get away with it
@@chris68213 Get away with what ?
A builder won't often need a diamond core drill but they can be very handy for jobs like this.
Definitely 😬🧱👍🏽

Groundwork is hardship
Fair dews ya went in got it sorted at a loss
Hate that
It is mate . 3 hours and a gulley so not to bad .
Lesson learned though 😁🧱👍🏽
Could you not have used a square top gully pipe? Would have looked better & made a better finish with the flags.
Good graft & effort though Steve 👏
Not much choice on a Sunday I’m afraid 🙄🧱👍🏽
Good job another lesson learnt
Yep ! 🙄 thanks pal 🧱👍🏽

Fair play getting the job done. No easy way think I would of altered the pipe you put in for the toilet and had down pipe that end 👍
It was a bit awkward up that end 🙄🧱👍🏽
did you forget to put cavity closers in before you fitted door and windows .
We only do the brickwork and slab 🧱👍🏽
Great video.
Would you not put down MOT type 1 and then the flag stones on to that rather than cementing them on to the soil?
The flags went back down as they were originally 🧱👍🏽
why not lay the slabs properly on a full bed?
Another fine bit of workmanship there 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Cheers Michael 🧱👍🏽
Lovely job Stevo
Thanks pal 🧱👍🏽
Could the chamber overflow?
Any chamber can overflow if the main pipe gets blocked 🚫 😬👍🏽🧱
Don’t look too bad Steve…in my time it would have required a backdrop into the inspection chamber and a rodding eye…!
Cheers , it is actually a Roddable gully 😁🧱👍🏽

I wouldn't have been happy with the messy finish around the Top of the Gully. Square should have been used regardless of what day it was.
Good job the customer was made up and it isn’t messy at all
Brick matching could be better.
