Awesome job, and thanks for the building lesson! You cover so much ground in your vids, they are a feast for the eyes. Looking forward to more of the same, cheers!!
Even though I've been out of the building game for twelve years now I still like seeing a good job well done. Excellent series of vids. Were they on 150mm bearings though ?
Just found your channel and its great. Love the explanations throughout the job, really good to have this kind of insight from a tradesman's point of view. Thanks
If you want to keep facia size down on a warm deck roof surely it's easier to ladder out with 4x2 through wall? All that extra work cutting a fall on every timber. Building inspectors round my way would have a heart attack if I'd cut 2 inches off of rafters as well.
work all day and then watch people work when i get home, you can never stop learning! I've always bolted the doubles/triples, but I had someone on a job today who was supposedly a velux window 'fitter', and he asked 'why have you bolted the double timbers/joists?'... how do some people go about building work with questions like that
You can actually buy a screw/ lag bolt now that'll do the same job and is far quicker. Think the brand is carpenter's mate that I've used. Fully recommend them
Only watched this video because today I had the privilege of having to move a 600kg beam with 5 other men. The man delivered it, dropped it off his wagon and shot off. We had no bogey and had to man handle it while rolling it on scaff tubes. You guys made it look easy even tho it was only a baby beam.
Projects coming on well boys amazed you got away with ripping the guts out of the joists though. I know what you mean about the big fascias we normally cut the joists on the plate and bolt on a 6x2 sprocket. Not a dis your work is fantastic👍
@@JakeBM4 I'm glad you noticed this aswel👍 I think they use the thin kerf blades, solely to improve battery run times. I am now using the DeWalt 2.2mm kerf, general purpose blades,xand they hold a much straighter line when ripping. I haven't really noticed a big difference in battery life😎
Hi Del much appreciated spot on with thin kerf blades, I suppose that’s why I haven’t quite jumped in full cordless but Pete says I’am to tight 😂 hope you are all well all the best Tony 👍
love your vids, diligent and amazing. I am just getting a single storey wraparound extension designed (and complete ground floor rework) and would absolutely love you guys to build it (Bromsgrove isn't that far from Leamington ;-) .Keep up the great work, you got me hooked
ON YOUR RSJ’s you have about 100mm over lap ( width of the blocks) is it not 150mm ? As 150 is min surely you aim for more than that to ensure a better bed ??
As a rule of thumb 150mm for when the beam is in plane with the wall it sits on. 100mm when the beam is perpendicular. This all however depends on the bearing stress applied onto the masonry underneath the beams so calculations would determine whether it needs to be 100 or 150 or anything in between or beyond. No hard and fast rule to say it’s definitely this and that or the other.
Glad you're enjoying the videos. I'm assuming you're referring to the internal blocks. They're called Ytong blocks. Hope this helps. All the best, John 👷🏻♂️
Nice job! I prefer to extend the brickwork and notch the joists to eliminate the massive fascia on a warm deck. See so many flat roofs with nearly 450mm of fascias boarding 😨🤢
Silly question perhaps, but why were the rafters so deep on those side sections anyway? As you've cut these down to form the tapers the top of the flat roof has come down too of course , so it'll be interesting to see how this all sits later on in the project as it looks like a fair bit of timber was trimmed off of these. Not a fan of the Ytong block with no wall plate to be honest as it seems an obvious point load to me, but I'm not saying it's wrong, just personal preference.
I personally wouldn't of tapered the joists as the velux will follow that pitch, I would of took out a 70mm half lap where the end of the joist passes over the outer leaf of block work then block up to it so it will be a 100mm tail end protruding instead of a 170mm and that way you keep the structural integrity of the timber
Hi Steve it’s funny every time I’am asked about the decking I always say Steve and Alex the TH-cam brick guys said the decking was awesome to work on so we got some so a big thanks for the advice Steve it’s been a true game changer for us. Hope you are all well all the best Tony 👍
As soon as this is wrapping up… “Noooo I want more”. I’m confused by the original house though. The steels look like they’re on a solid wall build at 4:10, but when taking apart that small corner of the house I can see clearly it’s a cavity wall at 22:10.
By my observation you run a 100% reputable company and you are all so YOUNG! Your vlog is a great inspiration for young people!
👍👍👍
You guys are nuts, love it. 'Yeh just moving that dormer forward and extending along to here' as if it's nothing.
Loving this build. But what's happened to the massive Regency build?
I was thinking the same too!
@@jasonantigua6825 I've asked a few times now but no reply!
@@jonnyl8175 They might have pulled off the job!
Could be any number of things
True. But at least say something if people are asking the question?
Don't forget the square washers. Nice to hear you say that you highly recommend the "yellow and black!"
Awesome job, and thanks for the building lesson! You cover so much ground in your vids, they are a feast for the eyes. Looking forward to more of the same, cheers!!
Excellent workmanship guys.
Builder, property developer by profession.
Really appreciate a job done right.
Really helpful hints and tips.
Nice work, I just take the outside skin up a bit higher and trim the rafter over it to reduce the facia 👍
Brilliant series of videos watched them all so far very professional as always
Justin brickright 👍

Great vid very informative and plenty of time lapse and footage...love the work and vids you put out

Not in construction anymore but I love watching these videos all the way through, something satisfying about it and a great bunch of lads, keep it up!
Hi Jake much appreciated
Have a awesome weekend all the best Tony 👍
Fantastic video as always!

Great job guys, attention to detail too.👍🏼
Thank you so much 😀
Do you work as far as Cannock Staffs👍🏼😉
dope video, thanks for sharing all your knowledge really appreciate it
Excelente trabajo saludos desde Chile 💯💯💯💪💪💪🙏🙏🙏
We all can show up 👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻Hi Pete!!!
🤫🤣😂🤣
That little back bathroom addition just kept poking at it and demo N it right down🤭 it needed to go.
Great video lads 💪
Thank you 🙌
Cracking episode John, I have that dewalt saw it’s an absolute beast and with a couple of 9ah batteries it runs all day.
Now that I've got my build with A & E fix, I can get on with weekend of boring chores around the house.
LOVING THE SAFETY DESK EASY TO ASSEMBLE COMPARED TO SCAFFOLDING AND EASY TO ADJUST EG REMOVE SECTION IF NEEDED RATHER THAN FULL SCAF SECTIONS

Awesome again guys😎 Pete's DeWalt DCS579 is a beast of a saw💪 Is he finding the thin kerf blades wander a little in bigger rips?😎
I'm not a fan of thin kerf blades. Don't you think it's a marketing gimmic? Ok for rough work, I've never found them accurate though.

Hi John much appreciated but we are booked for two years thanks Tony 👍
@@BuildWithAE no worries Tony, although two years is probably within our current timescale. Thanks

Just curious, do you insulate the web of the RSJ's for thermal bridging and reduce the risk of condensation?
Hi Richard were ever we can all the best Tony 👍
@@BuildWithAE should the RSJ not have a bigger bed ? I thought it was 150mm min it looks like you have 100mm the thickness of the blocks ?
Great videos! What are the blocks you use called?
Glad you're enjoying the videos. I'm assuming you're referring to the internal blocks. They're called Ytong blocks.

Who did you hire the Beam Lifter from ?
Hi Michael we own them, they are quite difficult to hire not many place’s have them all the best Tony 👍
Are them steels on breezes?

That deck is a real game changer , so good 👌🏼. The bill is coming on brilliantly !
Why can’t they make padstones square ? Very annoying 🙄🧱👍🏼
Hi Steve it’s funny every time I’am asked about the decking I always say Steve and Alex the TH-cam brick guys said the decking was awesome to work on so we got some so a big thanks for the advice Steve it’s been a true game changer for us. Hope you are all well all the best Tony 👍
@@BuildWithAE . It’s such a good idea for ease of working and for safety 😁🧱👍🏽
What's the name of the decking.. also padstones arnt square because they have to get them out of the forms same as a concrete lintel
Should I watch now or save it until my curry's ready? 🤔
Dobre!)

Hi Marcus it’s a real mix of different builds, solid cavity all the best Tony 👍
@@BuildWithAE Thanks Tony! Glad I wasn't being an idiot
Super Dupper
Thanks for watching! 👍
28 mins just not long enough guys lol
Haha, thanks for watching Mick! 👍
HE EXPLAINED AND TALK TO MUCH
AND NOT ENOUGH ACTION !!!!
