Thanks for watching!
You're a lucky fella Stu, working with your old man and obviously your mate. Sod the money ,them memories are priceless. Keep up the good work pal.
Exactly mate money is paper, working with dad is precious 👍
Yes indeed. I miss my pops. Enjoy every minute with him.
*That's really good mate.. 👍👍..in your next video can you make a garden tandoori oven or a brick barbecue 👍👍*
Something therapeutic about the mortar being mixed. Downtown Chicago watching this....at work.
Good to watch someone else do it !
I love KC

Wow that was a tricky job but you sorted it no problem. Excellent work and video although I have to say it was all down to your dads mixing of the mortar. What a star he is👍👍👍👍
First memory as a kid, my Grandad showing me how to mix compo!!! like KC on a board, something's never change apart from Grandads not here any more😔
U and your father working together and best mate. The way u give your dad respect its priceless. Well done
I like how your a very accomplished bricky and still listen to your dad lol
This is amazing! Thank you for sharing! I live in the midwest in the US and for 6 years I’ve been having leaky windows after I had a popular window company install storm windows. I been arguing with them for years. The only leaks is after they installed the storm windows and all the old windows are okay. My windows leak in between the original wood windows and the vinyl storm windows this big box store installed. The wall above the windows has mildewed and molded several times. They come and say they Re-adjusted the windows, I get the wall repaired 2 years later the same problem. Much respect! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
"Builder required - no John Waynes need apply". Good job you know what you're doing Stu!
how do you keep the tray clean when installing the bricks again, isn't there mortar dropping in?
Another beautiful job , you told it so well I now know how it should be done. 👍🏻😎👍🏻
Smashed it as always Stu 💪
cheers paul trying to show all these little other parts of bricklaying, hope your well paul
How good it is to see you both working together, there's going to be some cross words at times but that's normal. The work you produce is second to none and the commentary so helpful. Well done both.
an excellent video, very useful thankyou, that original tray is pretty useless but we live and learn and I like the way you put it all right, those weeps will do the trick
Another top job stew.
Little tip, fill the frog on the last course of bricks it will pack point a dream 👍
Cheers Craig
get your old fella a paddle mixer Stu, save his old bones... lol
3:00 that’s a shovel.Leave the spade for Alan Titchmarsh.🤣✌🏻
Bit sad I know but ....I love watching a bricklayer....always looks easy.🤪
It's relaxing to watch that brick job 👍
Where is the water coming from? Was it getting down the cavity 🧐
Moisture within the cavity, hence the need for a cavity tray
On this video you gloves look confort ,do you know the Mark of them

Beautiful workmanship, and you make it look so effortless. Therein lies the trap for us DIY'ers, one load of mortar in and experience runs into reality. :)
King KC 😎😎😎 beaut job again 👌👌🏴
cheers peter hope youre well
@@Stucrompton1 good ta 👍👍
*Mate I am new to this ....can you answer a question ? ....when mixing sand and cement 4:1 how much water do we need to add , what should the consistency be like ? Thanks 👍*
Hi Terry what it is trial and error there is all different types of Sand some sand takes lots of water others don’tHope this helps
@@seniorgolfprogress83 *Thanks for the reply mate ...but I thought it was some near exact measurement e.g... 4:1 kg in sand / cement may take 1 liter. ..maybe 🤔*
Terry Chootiyaa you add the water a little at a time until you get the right consistency depending on what you’re doing, if you’re doing an extension and it’s brickwork you’d make a creamy mix, and if it’s blockwork you’d make a bit of a stiffer mix so it’s not as wet but it’s still workable, if you add all the water in one go it might be too much your mix is ruined if it’s too runny and you’ll have to keep adding and adding sand and cement until it’s right, water makes it look like it’s mixing but you have to let the sand and cement mix on its own and give it time, I’ve been making mixes for 2-3 years and if you have a standard mixer there’s always a lip/line in the middle of the drum and if the sand is nice and fluffy (dry) That’s where I fill water up to but if my sand is wet, sometimes no water is not needed and the sand has all the water inside it for you, and I just add Feb, theres no rule for the water as it varies between what you’re doing and how the materials are.
Terry Chootiyaa sand will come with different water content depending how it has been stored at a yard or how long it’s been stored .and wether it’s been sheltered or left in the open in bays with rain or sun on it ect
Excellent job and well explained. It's just a shame that it wasnt done right first time. Then again if it wasnt for numpty's decent tradesmen would be out of work lol. It would be nice if you could find out if the same bricky has done any more jobs like this you could follow him round lol
No need a new lintel
Lovely job 👍👍👍 you two are a great team together
Greetings from Switzerland.
greetings buddy
Trowel
You didn't clean bricks.... why? cement on it... sponge, bucket of water and clean it up. technically ok but aesthetics very low...
Our 1930's ex council house has creasing tiles above the front UPVC windows. When the rain is heavy water often comes through to the inside of the window. There appears to be no lintel just creasing tiles. How can I stop the water from getting in? Do the tiles need to be replaced with a lintel? I'm not a bricklayer. Can someone advise. Thanks.
Great viewing again Stu, keep them coming
Absolutely brilliant Stu. Just remarkable. Such magnificent workmanship. You can't even tell it's been repaired. Your skill is just extraordinary. 😊👍
Some absolute cowboys out there🤔. Excellent work again stu. And that is why you get so many repeat customers 👍👍. Good to see the chuckle brothers back in action.
to me
@@Stucrompton1 to you....
Learning to use and handle most important thing
Thank you , Stu , and KC .
Thats a top quality job mate. You and your team are a credit to your industry. If only you guys were down South!
Lovely job, description and instruction of what you're doing Stu 👌
Its scary to see people putting stuff in but totally wrong, and if you think about it its easy to see why, I'm an IT guy but can understand how it works, need to do brick work on my house, this helps so much
stu did you not need to support the above brickwork whilst replacing the lintel?
Hi Jason yes we did support the brickwork but it is my secret and nothing moved no cracks it was 👌 kc👍
@@seniorgolfprogress83 thanks for the reply kc. absolutely love watchin you guys👌
Stu can you do a vid using hollow concrete blocks with piers?
Love these vids. Satisfying to watch and educational 👍
Good lads.Pride in the job goes a very long way.👍
Great video, but I am confused about the lintel. My home has a lintel over every window, about the same span as the door in your video. How do you determine it is okay to eliminate the iron lintel?
How come no acrows? Reason I ask is im changing the angle iron over my 2mtr front window. Is it best to have some acrows with strong boys ?
is it necessary to make the masonry and bricks wet before the bricklaying?
Great neat jobs, if only the spotty arsed fuckers they build to throw up these new builds took such pride in their work.
Hand mixing on a board or a barrow keeps you fit for sure. Dunno how many mixes i done like that as a young un.
I'm now schooled thanks for this well made video
British build bridges in India still work now great full
Great job. Enjoyed the video as always.
Really neat job. Very impressed.
Great work mate. Learned a bit more . Many thanks.
how very luky ,working fathers toguether
Wish you guys were down by me- would get you in to sort ours in a heartbeat 💓
*mate ! Why put that plastic between the bricks ? What purpose?*
They let out any water that gathers in the cavity.
Its weep holes used to to let water out that may get in
OK thanks for the reply guys 👍👍
Kc's cement looks good enough to eat 🤣
Very very good video,, 👍👌👍👌👍
@03:33 "10ml of that one" what being added ?
If you won’t it doing right get Stu in
That wasn't 4 to 1. There was hardly any cement in that.
Stu what was that stuff you added to the mortar? I don't understand why your muck always looks buttery smooth
Plasticiser
Brilliant again 😁
You didn't replace the lintol?
Kc mixing while Stu is on the hosepipe !!! Lazy young man lol
He wanted to do it what can I say he’s the boss man, I was on the dumb end
Cracking vid mate 👍
I've often wondered what are those plastic things?
Likewise.. if you hear anything let me know
@@SmokeyP_NYC actually I found out. But I'm not gonna tell you. Haha!!
@@SmokeyP_NYC I had the same question and they are called Weep Vents. They let the building "cry" tears that could otherwise damage the inner walls
What were them plastic spacers for? Ventilation and drainage?
What kind of lintel is that ?
Come to my house in the midlands stu and put a lintel above a bay window, lead the roof and sort a staggered crack in brickwork .. please 😂 you pair are proper professionals!
we will when we get a camper van :)
stu I’ll pay for the digs 😅
I’m holding you to this pal, I’m a long time subscriber and know you and your dad was looking at a camper-caravan🧐
Imagine the content, you pair on the road.
Granddad used to say............it's gravity what keeps the water out not fairy floss!!!
I never knew him to be wrongh !!!!.............
Stephan
Nice job stu the building regs in Scotland want a weep vent every 2 brick over a lintel they also want lintel on a bed of mortar and dpc on a thin bed i take it its different in England m8
Pretty much same it’s every 2 or 4 brick lintel is bedded on mortar and dpc on thin bed too 👍
@@Stucrompton1 thanks for that stu top man
Maximum every two bricks/450mm in England too. NHBC Regs.
@@mattyc2008 thanks its good to see the nhbc regs are the same north and south of the border
Dont like to put morter on lentel
nice works
Fantastic job 👏
Why are you not using a mortar mixer?
Using cordless drill or mixer to mix this, not concrete mixer. You didn't see anyone to that?
Not saying it’s wrong, but why mix on the plywood instead of in a wheelbarrow?
Mixing in wheelbarrow takes forever
Well at least you boy's know how to do the job right, clearly many people either don't know or just don't care.
Symptom of the last 30 years in the UK, people are so down trodden they stopped caring long ago.
Whats with the three thumbs down!!!?????
They are numbskulls Pete you always get them
Tidy
Good job that lads , I’ve always preferred to work away from Manchester and go your way ...much better genuine people by far...Manchester empty heads and don’t seem to care about the job. There just after a fast buck ...tosses.
Dobra robota.
Brillo Stu, great video, good on y'a. And your accent reminds of my time living in the UK, long long ago.
Fantastic stu.i liked the sing song and the banter 😁👍🏻
its good to have a laugh
Yeah pal.i totally agree with u mate
Jeez! you guys made meal of that muck mixing...
Nice brickwork as per usual!
If I hadn't of seen that scabby rusty lintel I wouldn't of believed it,Iv had to cut loads of trays in as an apprentice and I thought what a waste of time,we'll now I know,
You do a great job Stu, I'm a chippie but I love a bit of brickwork if get the chance ,I've built a few extensions over the years I'd make more if I subbed them out but I just enjoy it,No 2 storeys though it would take me to long,Anyway I love your channel you deserve every success
Fantastic job! Thanks for sharing and passing on your knowledge and great tunes to boot! 🎸
Stu,what is the building regs on cavity wall try,I've got water ingress above a window ,had window in for 30 years,don't know if cavity tray was ever installed before windows were ever put in,can u advise please.thankyou..informative video.
Why doesn't he use PVA in the mortar? Also why doesn't he wet the bricks before putting them on the mortar-better adhesion!
I was handmixing mortar all week, just couldn't get that same creamy soft consistency, I used less water, more water, more mixing, less mixing, the mortar always looked a bit sandy and started to harden on a tray very quickly. All done now, was a nightmare though.
I'm a tad confused. At the start you seem to be showing some rusty metal. What is it and was it replaced?
Your amazing and the passion you have for the brick work just wondering have you ever tried stone work?
stu been meaning to say, on jobs when you finish cutting your identity a hose to soak dry face work not only gets rid of brick dust but you'll find better when pointing in... malcs Perth WA
Wish you guys lived in Stockton on tees I'm looking for some building work and you guys are awesome I watch all your videos absolutely class lads
The lads I labour for do their lintels and cavity trays properly but as they build higher the things just gets packed with compo and its annoying me especially above doors and windows as their is no way of clearing it once they have built up. How would you prevent this from happening ?
Try using a marshaltown tilers trowel for little jobs like that..its a godsend.
If only water could be measured by a shovel, we'd get it about right straight off 😁
How much does that cost to have that done as I'm looking around for the same thing doing apart from it's a window that needs doing as I'm getting rain coming through it all started 3years ago so this is the 3rd time this has happened it used to be a council house till I bought it so ever time it's been repaired by the council and subcontractors called Mears have just repointed the problem not taken bricks out to look to see the problem and fix it as they are totally cowboys and just bodge it up on 3 times so just wondering how much i would be looking at I know all bricky's have different prices cheers bud
