Great video guys, was just wondering if anyone knew when installing the elements and plaster board does the elements board need to be set proud of rhe plaster board so that when installing the tiles the transition between the plaster and elements board is flat?
Cheers bud! Too right, we can't wait till we get to the point when we can do the final tour of the finished property! Keep your content coming and have a great weekend! 👍
Class work again...out of.intrest what pipe fitting system have the plumbers used, can see the plastic pipe in the video but are they crimp fittings? Hep2o?
We used the manufacturer's recommended adhesive to stick the elements board, and then screw them for good measure. Hope this helps. All the best, John 😊
I've got a fully internal brick feature wall that I'd like to cover. It looks to have had a load of PVA on as its really shiny. What would you do to prep it and would you recommend a coat of Febond? Also, what backing and finishing? The wall is in a bedroom - thanks
The Elements board was fixed with the manufacturer's recommended adhesive and then screwed with washers for good measure 😁 Thanks for watching. All the best, John 😊
Can you tell me where you bought your Rockwool sound insulation from . Is it from a national supplier . I have been able to find in my area in Scotland. Thank you
Hi Ian, We get our insulation from MKM, our local builders merchants. If you're struggling to find it, maybe get in touch with Rockwool directly and see if they can point you in the right direction. Hope this helps. All the best, John 😊
Is that a concealed TMV in the wall? How do you get access to it if it leaks? I thought you had to use a surface mounted TMV in situations (where it wouldn't be accessible) like this?
The whole system is fully pressure tested before anything is covered up; so we're extremely confident there will be no leaks. There is a concealed TMV in one of the bathrooms, which in the highly unlikely event of a leak, can be accessed from the other side of the wall. Hope this helps. All the best, John 😊
If it's tile you can actually cut the grout and tile out as a whole with the elements board attached and they do a resealing kit for the board. Also most Grohe and high end brands are now all serviceable from the front.
We use cut clasp nails as they would of been traditionally used. We like to use them on all wooden floors which will be sanded and stained, as the end result looks fantastic 😁 Hope this helps. All the best, John 😊
Loving watching this house coming back to its former glory 😀 I might sound like a complete novice but, I thought all floorboards were tongue and groove? Did I miss something?
Hi saudilass the history of old period boards from Oak, elm and pine is an amazing historical read but just a quick overview most are square edged depending on age but please google period floors boards it’s a great read all the best Tony 👍
Hi Doug its 19mm Marine HW faced plywood’s you can use standard standard external grade HW plywood as well, we purchase it from MKM Leamington branch all the best Tony 👍
Reclaimed boards aren't required, providing they are a similar material, which in this property would of been Baltic Fir. As Baltic forrests are now protected, we have used Douglas Fir, which is an acceptable substitute. Hope this helps. All the best, John 😊
Why are you using lime plaster in some areas and not in others? I’m currently doing my bathroom and was going to dot and dab moisture resistant plasterboard but maybe I’m doing it wrong 😂😂. Any help appreciated 👍🏼
All of the external walls are receiving lime plaster, because the age of the property requires it. The walls need to be able to breathe, and the lime plaster, combined with the external lime render, achieves that. We are only using Elements board / moisture resistant board in wet areas. Hope this helps. All the best, John 😊
Build With A&E thank you John. This does help. In my case the wall in question in my property in old browning plaster I believe but has blown in places but it is on an external wall. Would you not advice dot and dab moisture board or would you say i could have issues. Searching on google get mixed reviews
Hmm you know when you think you’ve invented something amazing, only to find out it’s been done before, and better... what’s that floorboard clamp thing called? Edit: floorboard clamps. Lol.

Love the vintage floorboard clamps lads so handy
They're great aren't they? Thanks for watching Paul 👍
So glad I'm not the only one who hovers inbetween floor joists. 😃😃
😂 there was hundreds of years worth of dirt in there, it had to go!
Thanks for watching.
All the best, John 😊
The sped-up video shows how physically tough building work is... a lot of moving around!
I think I say this about every video. The quality of the work is first class 👍👍
Thank you, it means a lot that people appreciate our efforts 😁
All the best, John 😊
Just a fantastic job from great artisans at A&E builders.
I have builders who are at the "ripping apart" sequence of my little cottage,eek!
Thanks Maria! Hope the work is going well, take care and have a great weekend! 👍

Interested to know what your plumber uses to bring his pipe tails out the wall? Looks like 18mm brass tails instead of standard 15mm copper?
I like your floor board straighter, super nice!
Great bit of kit isn't it? Take care 👍
@@BuildWithAE ya, I usually use a piece of heavy lumber and do a hit and hold

We used the manufacturer's recommended adhesive to stick the elements board, and then screw them for good measure.
Hope this helps.

Another great video amazing work very professional very clean workers 👍👍⚒🛠
Thank you Isabel 👍
I noticed the bricks in the bathroom were blue. Was that a tanking you put onto them?
It's a primer we put on the walls to provide a key for the adhesive.
Hope this helps.
All the best, John 👷🏻♂️
Are you not useing tongue and groove floor birds ? ...
Great job!
Nicely done, 'Properly' 💯👍🏻
Thank you! 👍
Love this John! Great work my man 👌🏻
Cheers mate 😁
All the best, John 😊
Beautiful work as always pal
Thank you so much 😀👍
What are you sticking the elements board to the wall with?
Screws with dedicated washers.
Tile adhesive, mate.
The Elements board was fixed with the manufacturer's recommended adhesive and then screwed with washers for good measure 😁
Thanks for watching.
All the best, John 😊
Did you use, standard Dri wall adhesive on the moisture boards or something else ?

good video,very nice house it's going to look great
Thanks John 👍
Great video! Why do you fix the floorboards down with nails as opposed to screws? Is it just to keep it in-keeping?
We use cut clasp nails as they would of been traditionally used. We like to use them on all wooden floors which will be sanded and stained, as the end result looks fantastic 😁
Hope this helps.
All the best, John 😊
Awesome!
Hi Mike glad you enjoyed all the best Tony 👍 have a awesome weekend

Great vid. Proper job. You using tile adhesive to set that elements board guys?
Hi Lee, the adhesive used is supplied by the elements board company FIX-KST BOARD FIXING ADHESIVE - 3.5KG all the best Tony 👍
Great Watch. Can I ask what ply you put under the shower trays? Is it water resistant or just regular 18/22mm? Thanks again.
Hi Doug its 19mm Marine HW faced plywood’s you can use standard standard external grade HW plywood as well, we purchase it from MKM Leamington branch all the best Tony 👍
Great video, but why use cut nails for the floor boards instead of screwing, just curious not criticism?
Hi Ben, we use cut clasp nails as they would of been traditionally used. Have a great weekend 👍
Doing my bathroom with elements boards, on recommendation from roger at professional builder very good watch,good vid a bit short but we'll done 👏👏👍
Thanks for watching Anthony 👍
Dont you need to use reclaimed floor boards? Great work as always 👏
Reclaimed boards aren't required, providing they are a similar material, which in this property would of been Baltic Fir. As Baltic forrests are now protected, we have used Douglas Fir, which is an acceptable substitute.
Hope this helps.
All the best, John 😊
Great video! Just to ask, ehat is the blue coloured coat that you have over the brick walls? I've seen it in a couple of your videos.
It looks like Feb blue grit pal its a plaster bonding agent turns smoother backgrounds into something similar to 40 grade sandpaper
Exactly that. It's a breathable priming agent, which is perfect for this application.
Thanks for watching.
All the best, John 😊
And bits of chimneys coming down 😂
what adhesive are you using to stick the element board to the masonry walls?
We use the manufacturer's recommended adhesive and then we srew them for added measure.
Hope this helps.
All the best, John 😊
@@BuildWithAE how did you fix moisture resistant boards
Hi Tim,
The plasterboards were fixed with plasterboard adhesive.
Hope this helps.
All the best, John 😊

Why nail the floor back down??? Is there another reason not just going back like for like?? Great video 👍
So when its sanded you see nice period nail heads and not modern pozi crosshairs all over the place I would think
Exactly 😁😁😁
The finished product looks a lot better with traditional nails.
Thanks for watching.
All the best, John 😊
@@TheSmartStar oh I missed the part when it was being exposed,,,makes complete sense with that finish 👍
When will it be finished
Completion should be around Christmas time 👍
MINT 👌🏼
Thanks Marty 👍
