How’s everyone been!? Let me know if you’ve built many chimneys yourself 👊🏼
That's the only thing in brickwork I havnt had a chance to build yet. Don't do much stuff like that on site any more
Built em demolished em fixed em hate em
Yep, first off all you don’t need a Air vent in it because there are a flu liner, and it’s not a open 🔥 fire
Second, you could of Case all that in concrete which a sheet off ply with the lintels too, because now it’s going to hard for the next person to patch it up underneath etc.!
@@craighughescraig6096 you still need a vent for log burners mate. Any house built after 2008 and any house all together for anything over 5kw.
Don't need the vent if it's a logburner, looks to high as well but if that's the spec, plastic vents draw more air than terracotta but just put a bigger one in. Never bother with all them lintols and flue starters always shutter and concrete, looking good though 👍
Great work Charlie and Amy, it's good to see how a chimney is built..🙏🏾❤🙏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Love the video first time IV seen a chimney built loved it nice to see Amy back
You only need 2inchs round the pots you should of laid blocks flat up the back to pick up the bend as for knocking up the gear there's a bag of dust in each bag of vermiculite
Hi Charlie Amy & gang great to see you all again thought ye were gone off you tube was getting a bit worried 😟. Great job on the chimney nice & neat 👌. Keep up the great work team Collison 👌👍😉
Nice one Charlie lad that looks well tidy you did not hang about getting that done well fast brilliant C Team Smashing it 🙂✌️
That Chimney build Is amazing.
Hi, yes built a fair few private houses. Obviously that is a decorative fire surround so face bricks can be used. The architect should earn his money and specify structural size of the fireplace and what materials that are to be used to be compatible with what ever appliance is used. A class 1 fireplace as flue liners that are 225mm diameter internally and I feel are the best as it gives the client options regarding different appliances. I would have built the stack differently but that's me. I'm a firm believer that a brickie works hard enough and architects need to put as much specification as they can on the plans, not just the measurements but specify the materials.
So Charlie and gang well done.
Construction industry is a constant learning curve
Great video. Is that lime mortar and how do you like working with it?
What a great video.detail and well educated, you both great team.respect Amy......
Fantastic work my friends love you all great video keep up the fantastic work
I’m sure you only need 50 mm around the flue for velicumite , that was use loads of bags mate ,
Great vids though 👍
Nice work as usual, I do have a couple of questions though. If it's a functional chimney; how comes the architects used a plastic vent brick? & did they use refractory mortar? .. I know your job is just to lay them, but just curious.
Charlie where's this belt from? Lovely bit of kit!
Nice work 👍🏻
Vermiculite in it mate ?
Great work on that chimney back in the 90s used to build em in to lots of houses now hardly ever. Nice to see one and a good job .You got paper plans yet mate ?
Justin 👍
a real tradesman well done charlie looks great
Hi great chimney work. Don’t forget damp tray around joist area. Well you won’t forget really as you are a great Bricky
I know this is old, but been watching this series over breakfast- keep wondering where the tray is?? Can't see a tray anywhere on the first lift?
Ive start my own gang last few months you have taught me loads, I’ve had the same chimney packs on site when you get up higher make sure your plumbing up the flu or your cavity will go to shit haha one tip from me hah happy Xmas guys and girl
Looks really good mate! Pretty much exactly how I did that chimney I showed you a few years ago👌 hope you had a good weekend fella👍🍻
Thought you were having a long Christmas break lol🍻
Does the 2nd house get a chimney? I think the flue insulation is called Vermiculite unless thats a trade name, used some years ago to insulate a small chimney.
Them line tentioners look wicked all types are a godsend but they're the bollocks who makes them or know any places u can get them mate?
Another great video Charlie all the best Harry about time Amy you cleaned your boots take care Trev
Hi mate, I'm about to do my first chimney on a private new build. Did you put any dpc in when you reverted the inside skin of the chimney to external when you got a bit higher? I've been going through the videos and I'm scratching my head at this bit trying to work it out.
Best trowel on TH-cam
Nice job mate! , they build them a little different in the Massachusetts..
Nice one Charlie, I've been looking forward to the chimney build. Very hard word to spell "chimney " . I think I've got in now
Is it vermiculite Charlie 🤔.
That is one big lump of a chimney.
Love the brickwork on mate , mint 👌🏼.
We are doing some lovely English bond with re claims fir A&E , looking smart 🧱👍🏽
@@martin2466 . Never mind your book Martin , you should do a builders encyclopaedia 😉👌🏼🧱👍🏼
@@martin2466 A great read no doubt 😁🧱👍🏼
@@martin2466 🧱👍🏽
Nice stuff. Ideally where you quoins meet your internal block work they would project 30mm to allow for thickness of dab, board and skim. Darbo looks nice colour.
Quality work guys
In the back of the chimney, one single stretcher in the center of header course might have been nice.
Loking good but how does the plaster finish up to the brickwork on the returns would it have been better to project the bricks to a little beyond the plaster line
Good vid mate and I like the music aswell
Current situation with your Barnet is quality, much more eclectic artiste and quirkyish, keep that.
Surprised you need a line to do a 3 brick run!! Blimey 2 blokes who go to the gym cant pick that up, heavy weekend? Is the word your looking for Vermiculite? I used to buil;d fireplaces back in the 80's and this is not a dig at you, but the Architect, when I first saw you had built it out of celcon blocks I did wonder how they would stand up to the heat! (unless it was being rendered with fireproof render) I gave a sigh of relief when you took them out but was surprised when you put bricks in there instead of fire reflective blocks (which heat up and reflect the heat back into the room) but the Icing on the cake was to install a PLASTIC vent into a area of FIRE!!!!! should have been a clay tray & brick, but that was years ago before 'modern thermal' practises!!!
Charlie whats the deal with the plastic vent will that not melt or am I being a melt 😅 please explain 👍🏻
Shouldn’t be any combustible materials within the fire chamber . Zero! Should be a stainless sleeve and cover.
It’s what was supplied by the chimney manufacturer
@@CharlieCollison yes to be put in the room mate not in the chamber.
@@CharlieCollison the vent can go anywhere in the room bud .
@@bardy9240 it shows it on the drawing. But it makes more sense
Damn there's a LOT of mortar voids in those walls! 5:30
Am I mistaken but won’t the plastic ventilation pieces melt if that’s a fireplace?
I was thinking the same also the smoke from fire would flow right through it
Me to very strange plastic near a fire
This is what was supplied by the manufacturer
its not an open fire ,will be a log burning stove i think or something similar
@@mace106 makes sense
Is that a new belt?
Wouldn’t put a plaggy vent behind a burner tbh mate.
Fantastic video
It's bent that Back of chimney put a level on it tomorrow 👍👌
Nice, something different
Why was the blockwork built in front on the fire
Fire place looks good 👍 now back it up with Micofill if you Amy and the boys ain't back on before Christmas have go one and all
Would have built nine inch around flue till bend but neither here or there 👍
Just a tip for you Charlie I would have walled the blocks closer to the liner all the way around to save on mixing as much vermiculite to fill the void
Vermiculite mate ?
Swish! Swish! Yer a Kung Fu Mason!👉🙏😁
you not got the bond right there son 3 course of headers in that???
Vermiculite ?
the blocks should be built as close to the liner as poss apart from being a stronger job you would save on time and money on the vermiculite
first time iv seen a plastic vent and there should be a lintel over the vent as the bricks are resting on a plastic vent.. terracotta would be more suitable for a chimney which is non combustible and you only need a vent in the room not the chimney
do you really need a line to run 3 bricks
Good day's work 👋
i did mention a nice brick feature fireplace few weeks back im glad u got the go ahead as it will make a world of difference and show ur tasty work off ass ppl then gather around the fire fair play charlie enjoying your vids from day one will keep enjoying them stay safe over there i hear its mental with covid u amy your dad and cute sis stay safe and have a great xmas and new yeary and we will all do the summer dance los boys praying for the heat and good health to return quikly stay safe .....robbie ...xx ireland
👍
They could of splashed out on some clay vent bricks.
First video on how to build a chimney!
Not too shabby 👌🏻👍🏻😏
You better hurry up Father Christmas won’t be coming down your chimney 😜
Gran trabajo hermano.
Why put a plastic ventilation box in a fireplace 🔥 📛 👩🚒??????
As if by magic
Your comment popped up just as I was uploading 👍🏻👊🏼
I’d have pic and dipped the flue on my own because I’m
So strong
Lovely video Charlie boy
Laying block flat across that first course of brick on top of the stack. 2 great big air pockets/voids. Pretty poor.
plastic vent with all that heat ? not the best of ideas charlie terracotta surely
Look ms lovely u remember to read that tape
I seen stronger men anointed
A little bit faster
We call it rabbit shit 😂😂vermiculite 😂😂
Don’t look right to me I thought the flu be at the back of the fireplace Not at the front
SORRY NOT CORRECT ENGLISH BOND ON THE BACK WALL
do you mean the half on the stretcher course of the external skin?
@@mattcartwright8272 no i mean the three in the middle of the strecher course inside ,didn,t notice outside wall but saying that nice brickwork
@@nigelharris6417 yes i see now - the 'hybrid' bond. Guess he had to make it work somehow. Still looks good though.
Its broken bond and it's quarter bond so it's fine! Not a lot of measurements do work to bricks so Charlie as done it correctly. People need to look around at properties and you'll see lots of broken bond.
It's not a problem to us brickies just seems to rub the want to be's up the wrong way.
@@malcolmhaynes1424 not a want to be mate 5 year apprentice bricklayer so just asking it could have been done as a feature OR the architect needs to do more about brick measurements to accomodate the correct bond
10th BOOOOOOM, haven't you got central heating down there???🎅🎅🎅😷💉💉💉
The posts didn’t last long.
What if they put a woodstove in that will melt
