What a great way to replace a beautiful little garden into a tiny cold room with no natural light. Awesome!
No light? It has sky lights.
Puts into perspective London land prices when this is worth doing.
Not only worth doing but entirely by hand too 😳
That had to be 200k euros. In America an entire home can be purchased for that amount. Neat project though. The earth moving conveyor was cool
@@facelessfisher3006 fuck the conveyer mini track hoe is the way to go lol
@@facelessfisher3006 In most of the UK, you can also buy a decent house for that price.
London house prices are just insane.
@@MrMikeBaldock Says budget was 100k. Looks like maybe 30-40 sq metres, Avg per square metre is around 5k so maybe adds around 175k to the house price.
Holy crap I hope you were very kind to your neighbours after this finished.
These gentlemen made a significant and much needed improvement to the property.
I have an office job - I can't even call it 'work' after watching that. You certainly know how to graft! Beautiful result too.
All that work and money and you put a cut course of bricks on lintel above doors! I hope they are happy with the extra indoor space and 2m long garden!
Looks bollocks
Probably a house converted into rental apartments to maximise the return on investment, probably from an owner who owns (a) dozen(s) of such buildings... Sad really...
Because i know nothing about construction it always amazes me seeing videos like this... Amazing stuff
Good job. Well done, lot of hard graft done there. I'm surprised by some of these comments on here, very spiteful. I'm a proud Englishmen. There is good and bad builders in any country. These men did a good job, they wouldn't have posted it otherwise. To all the critics, Where's yours? 👍🇬🇧
very interesting to see how things are done in different places. Here in Canada we do lumber framing for residential buildings with brick only as a facade or chimney. Sometimes basement walls are built with cinder blocks but most often it's concrete poured into wooden forms.
And our health and safety officers would be handing out violation fines for no hard hats and proper safety controls .
building with bricks is really common in europe. concrete is cheaper, "faster" and often combinated with other materials. wooden houses are absolutely not popular (wood - longterm costs, lifetime, safety, "cheap style"). usually the small shed (when necessary) in the garden is made out of wood...
Love thy neighbour and hopefully they’ll love you back enough to let you do that! Great job though lads!
Bet the neighbours were happy with this!
Hats off to the guys digging that by hand. Im currently digginf out for a 7x5m concrete base and its not easy work. Great job guys on the extension.
Jeez that was a lot of earth to shift by hand.
I was thinking the same. Where I live, no contractor would take a project like this, since there are way to many less bone grinding projects available.
Probably no way to get a mechanical digger in, but they will charge a small fortune for the work. Got to love London !
@@bulgarianfarmadventure7202 I don't know if there was no way. I once lend a granted very very small excavator that managed to fit through a door frame of a garage back door into a garden. It was able to "retract" its tracks. Quite brilliant! And it saved us a lot of manual labour.
@@y4nnickschmitt I wonder if they can increase profits by claiming they can only use manual, maybe restrictions in a residential area with noise (highly unlikely though tbh) or maybe the home owner just didn't want machinery in the house. The way you did it would be the way I would also go, makes most sense economically and time wise.
fun fact- the owner of the house got killed and the house was resold for 2/3 of the price haahha wasted extension
Fiquei fisicamente cansado só de assistir! 😂😂😂. Belíssimo trabalho! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
*A good video of the extension of the house sure that these minutes were several weeks of work. Congratulations on the project. Angel*
Proper grafters, all of that lot by hand....wow!
Lovely job 😊
That's really cool. Can't do that in Florida though, the water table is like, 3 feet down everywhere.
Good luck getting the permitting to do this in a lot cities..
Look at mr high and dry over here with a 3ft water table. I've got a cypress swamp in my back yard that is desperately trying to become a lake.
And with climate change your house wouldn't be there for long
Maybe u got no engineering skills.
@@doesnotexist6524 but how’s the fishing?
That would suck having no yard and living next to people like that.

I have to admit that you lads have done a job that I’d be happy to pass off on
What a fantastic set of contractors!! Superb job!
Was hoping they would have done some sort of outdoor space on the roof
There's restrictions on overlooking into neighbours gardens, or at least there is in our town, should imagine London is the same.
Notice how the widow above the worksite used to be a door.
@@pdxyyz The window round the corner is the same, though that brickwork look old under that one maybe even dropped a little, they could've been altered a long time ago to keep with the ruling, any new windows/builds have to be stippled glass if it directly overlooks properties face on, or at least the ones round here are, but it could be different in London with less space.
@@will4may175 they can put a glass fence that is blurry blocking the yard next door or a wooden fence
@@oilburner225 Wow that's just anger inducing, so a neighbour that thinks he's above the rules and obviously and asshole, and authorities that don't give a crap because of the effort needed.
My dream is for a rural house my own fields all the way round, neighbours too far away to care or hear, unfortunately it's a dream, unless Camelot lets my numbers come up.
I hope you don't still have that neighbour or you got a better plot, it's horrible being next to folk like that, I've been there.
Well, I have to say if i was going to have an extension these guys tick all of the boxes!
Spiderman
Power of hard graft in that.
Well done
All by hand - no excavator- Fair play!!! 👍🏻
What an enormous amount of manual labour. Must've cost a fortune
i guess minimum £100K considering north london (difficult access etc) but i am suprised it took 3 months even without rendering & decorating, even with 5-7 guys at some times. I paid 30K including skylights and floorings and upvc french door etc on top of building materails (walls with brick not concrete or cladding, same size aprox mine was bigger with extension of 50 square meter ( living room and seperate study room with shower /utility room. of course my 30K cost is really low as i used only 2 builders and it took 13 months for them to finish, as they took jobs in between. overall you get waht you pay, but i am okey with the small problems i had such as bad floor laminates , leaking gutter pipes, uneven some garden tilings etc.. but thanks god no problem with walls or ceiling. (knock on wood :) anyway, I also understand sometimes you gotta pay big numbers for similar jobs, just like in this video.
@@kayahankara99 so glad I don't live in london £100k is a 3 bed semmi detached here.

I am quite thankful that I got to live in London in the 90's as a kid.
That was just the beginning of the property bubble problems and political correctness taking over.
I loved the transportation system, between the double decker busses, the mostly safe for kids Underground and British Rail stations. I had a lot of fun exploring the city, it's museums and it's beauty on my weekends as a middle schooler.
I found out from a friend the locations of several TV show locations, and lived down the road from Inspector Morris's house. *(before the owner split the land three ways for more housing.)
I was fortunate to wave hello to Princess Diana, and get a hello wave in return. But my biggest royal encounter was with the Queen, a ultra rare honour indeed! It happened on my schools field trip to veiw the crown jewels in their old exhibit. While in line, I saw a nearby old man drop his cane out of his wheelchair. I rushed over to assist him. He was very impressed by my swift action to assist him. He said something like, "A gentleman like you ought to meet the Queen. Would you like to meet her?" I replied "I guess." having no idea if that was even possible while I was on a school trip. My teacher (and headmistress) came over to see what the fuss was about, scolding me, that I was going to get lost speporating myself from the group. When the Woman who was pushing the man said what happened and asked my teacher if I could wait a few minutes over there next to the gaurd to, if possible, meet the Queen of England. My teacher was absolutely shocked, and then she told the group to move on, and that we would catch up later.
So we walked up to the line with the man and woman, the teacher and I were warned to stay back. After a chat with the gaurd, I was told to leave my backpack with my teacher and walk forward across the forbidden white line. The man and woman went inside while I was interrogated by the gaurd. He asked me if I had anything dangerous in my pockets and ordered me to be on my best behaviour. It wasn't until that point that I realized I might actually be meeting the Queen of England, and what that might mean! 5 long minutes passed, as I stood silent just a foot away from the frozen still gaurd. Then the door opened and I was ordered to walk in the door and take no more the 10 steps inside.
Just inside the door was the man in the wheelchair, the Woman and another woman. I was then told that the Queen would like to thank me, to shake my hand and to hear what school I was from. That I was not to change the subject or talk to her about anything else. That she was a busy woman and that I should expect only a brief interaction, to only respond with just yes ma'am or no ma'am and when dismissed bow my head a little and thank her, turn around and exit back through the same door. 2 minutes passed, the Queen entered, greeted the man, and then after a short exaggerated explination for my presence, she walked over to me.
She said something like "Thank you young man, for your quick assistance." Shook my hand, asked what school I was from and where it was, and then politely dismissed me. I said my thank you, and turned around and as I was walking out the door. She commented to the man that I was delightful. (Not like I had a choice to be anything but delightful lol.) And as instructed I not too swiftly returned to my teacher.
The headmistress wanted a full report, but after (still on the way to the others) told me that I should not share what happened with any other student to prevent being a target for bullying. *(she was weird about random stuff like that. Presently however, I think she was jealous that she not only didn't get to shake hands with the Queen, but didn't even get to see it happen. And didn't want me endlessly bragging about it. Not that I would.)
I don't know if the man was anyone important or not, I did not ask his name, nor was it told to me. I don't think he was royalty, as he was there only for a visit. And this all happened in my "forth year" of school in England, the very first year I lived there 1993. I didn't have the internet for 6 more years, to try and look up who that man might have been.
I did get to see the Queen again, along with her classic wave, from a crowd three more times before I moved back home to America. I never saw Prince Charles or his two sons. *(my sister saw them but also from a crowd, shortly after Diana died.)
All I can say is very understanding nice neighbour. More or less blocked out light to their property
Check out the original wall height at the beginning of the video
The free lady at the end is a bonus too 👍🤫👌😏
Ground works all hand dug - very impressed. Good work lads.
Good job. Nice result !
A lot of manual labor that did create new value where there was dirt.
Idk, I'd prefer a garden...
@@mdrumt You can’t rent a garden out for ridiculous London prices.

Amazing time lapse, thanks for posting 💯👊🏼
That was a great video and a great looking finish really well done there

Some graft, shovelling all that out by hand! 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
Great video! Great job.👍That’s some muck shift for 4 blokes! Thank goodness for that muck conveyor!!!!
0:34 what a lovely moment, when the props come out.
É muita mão de obra pra fazer uma coisa tão simples! 👏
nice to see some quality work done, you need to be proud of your team
Fantastic to watch...good job well done chaps 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👏👏👏👏👏
Of all the British home shows that I've watched, this is the only one where I can remember seeing a good American sized refrigerator! Also, based on the height of the original property wall, the neighbors shouldn't be losing any light.
americans look alot like their refrigerator.
@@tk-jv4zd So... that means Brits are puny????
A lot of UK homes don't have the room in the kitchen to fit those fridges, our last house did, but moving to the house we have now we had to sell it for a skinny one 😢 we really miss it though, this area has hard water and our fridge had a built in filter.
Yeah cuz everything americans do should be the golden standard for everyone😒. Maybe the rest of the world doesnt need to buy soft drinks and orange juice in gallon containers. Bunch of overconsuming lot, all of ya.
Gotta be careful with what i'm saying. Don't want to hurt your feelings, cuz maybe you'll start a war with my country over our small fridges
@@lj5801 I am in UK, and as much as the US has their abundance of land whales, UK seems to be trying to compete, when I was young chubby was considered fat, and that used to be the Grandmas or Aunties, but that's trickled down over the years to the kids being fat little effers, I guess social media and computers are somewhat to blame mostly their parents, as active kids burn too much to be fat, and this covid it making more of them.
I would like to see how much of the garden was left. And what was the other room built alongside that.
@@dianeduus9063 Nope the kitchen is in the old room with the dining room table and chairs... in the dark: raised electricity bill.
No pillars, no iron .... well done architects and engineers. :)
Wow, very Labor intensive. I can't imagine the price tag. Very cool video.
It would be nice if an extension only took this long in real life.
Once finished it turns out very beautiful but I can't help feeling sorry for the neighbour to the right.
The neighbour has been blocked in and had a higher wall replace the one knocked down, causing him to lose light. Still he could have objected at the plans and he didn't nice neighbour.
How do you know he didn't object? He might have done but had no grounds to as perhaps the development fitted within planning guidelines.. Who knows? I don't.. Neither do you..
@@adammacer you're right I don't know!
Who cares, certainly not me I don't live there😜
@The V4 Engine The landlord I presume would have received the planning application and been able to lodge an objection (giving their reasons).
A quite a few cubic metres of fill all dug by hand. Nice going, boys 👏
Some serious graft going on there! Proper job.
UK housing requires a revolution
That's true looks like there living in bunkers
@@sap3055 its london mate. The place is a shit hole.
i live in coventry and trust me we live in dog kennels
@@colinward1007 ye it's not to say anything bad actually about British people and how they build but this really indeed looks like living in a bunkers to me
@@sap3055 lol. I am British and still live in the UK. Honestly London is a shit hole and an awful place to live.
Year 2020 in UK and they still build houses on clay + 5cm of non capillary rock. That plastic will hold there not more than 10 years...
The whole of England is a bodge on a bodge on a bodge. I'm surprised the entire country hasn't crumbled into the sea yet.
@Drunk Duck it look like made in China shit build quality
It’s a DPC, and it’ll last for as long as the building does. And they hit bedrock before laying the floor.
I’m guessing you work in an office.
Houses in the US are thrown up in 2-3 months. Nothing is square, they are wood frames with a vapour layer - often vinyl siding on outside and drywall inside. If brick is on the outside, it’s just a veneer layer, not structurally required - I’m not a builder (yep, office worker) but I’m trying to describe what my $600,000 home is made of for comparison. They can build an entire sub-division (housing estate) in a year. Not built for the ages. My old flat in my home town of Kilmarnock (UK) was 220 years old with two-foot think walls and plaster not drywall. That thing was cool in summer, warm in winter, loved it. Now, it did have rising damp when I bought it and was expensive to fix, but it was a solid building. My house here looks lovely, the neighbourhood looks great (if a little cookie cutter like), but they are horribly made. If I win the lottery and build a dream house, I’ll be paying British trained builders to come over and build a solid, proper house. No offence to my adopted land, I love my home and my life, but I acknowledge that the building practices are very shoddy while prices are very high.
@Drunk Duck I think it looks great, looks well constructed, and I’m sure they overcame many obstacles - the conveyor belt to move material was amazing. I wish builders of this level had built my home.
Bloody brilliant.Great job.
I must tell you it's beautiful!! Chapeau!!
Wish I could have seen how you completed the back end of the property.....was it more living space? Storage? Lots of brick work which made me curious. What a tremendous effort!

So they had to conveyor the dirt from the backyard, thru the cellar, out the front?
They probably didn’t have to do it. It was just quicker and easier to do so.
I can’t believe they dug the foundations by hand! I’d have hired a mini digger.
@@ArtistFormerlyKnownAsShitlord and how would you get that digger in there ?
@@haris621 that was probably the reason why they dug it by hand
@@vemundkremund3221 and it was probably cheaper to get half a dozen Romanians to dig it.🤣
That was well done congrats to the builder
Отличная работа. И не просто увеличивают, но и и берегут старый вид. Они максимально сохраняют старую кладку! Обратите внимание. Стену справа сначала разобрали, а потом из этого же кирпича сложили обратно.👍👍👍
It's good when you money to invest in your house,and time to enjoy your 🏠 other wise there's no point.👍🏼
I think as a neighbour to this I’d be a bit annoyed at the natural light been cut done.
Party wall same height as before.
The wall from the new build is more or less the same height as the old wall so it would be no different than before except they have a bright new wall to look at instead of a dull dirty wall.
Loved watching the roof dry off
Great job lads!
Work smarter, no harder!
This is a good time to encroach a bit on the neighbour's land.
Nice neighbours😊 When we built our extenstion, our neighbours didn't allow our builders to step one inch on their land - even when it can to building the wall that touched our joint boundary.
Wonder how much something like this would cost

🤣🤣🤣 I was thinkin the same thing!!
Wow, nice job that came out great.👍
Brilliant work
Wouldn't normally bother to comment, but in my opinion this should not get near to passing UK Building Control;
- No proper waterproofing to the retaining wall even though adjacent ground is at least 1.5m higher than the finished floor level.
- No dpc's/ cavity trays present in the new external walls.
- No cavity tray and flashing where the new roof abutts the old external wall of the house.
- The retaining wall is dubious i.e. long length with no buttress support, normal wall starter-kit used off the old house and not engineered into the foundation just sat on top of it).
- The flat roof appears to be constructed as a cold roof, where insulation (if present) is below the deck and waterproofing layer, but it has not been ventilated so it will likely develop condensation in the ceiling void.
- The flat roof covering does not wrap over the parapet so its going to leak here.
- The svp pipe penetration through the flat roof doesnt seem to have any cowelling/bonded waterproofing to it so is also going to leak.
As mentioned by others:
- No floor insulation! (Major).
- Lack of wall ties in the blockwork.
- Awful use of cut bricks over the lintels.
Sorry, but its just not right. I imagine its already pretty cold and damp, if not actually leaking.
The Inspector great insights!
also: how can this type of scaffolding be allowed? 4:58 one guy is working in adidas pants, one is wearing sports shoes for work (1:44), helmets are not used and lying on the windowsill, I cannot see use of other protective gear like ear protection... serious neglect of worker's security! In Germany, the Bauaufsicht would be horrified.
plus from an architectural stand point, it makes no sense not to use the new space on the roof for a balcony to get more living space.
I couldn't agree more with everything you have said `The Inspector'. I take my hat off to the hard working lads for digging this out by hand but this is the greatest joke of an extension i have ever seen built and what ever private building control company passed it off should be struck off for the chronic disregard for the building regulations.(I very much doubt it was a local authority building control dept because they would not accept this total disregard for the regulations.) To use a plastic damp proof membrane below the foundations and up the back side of the retaining wall is a recipe for disaster, before this was even poured it would have been punctured by the steel reinforcement and concrete packers. This company clearly has no idea whatsoever about how to build an extension to comply with the Building Regulations, let alone the Health and Safety at Work Act. By far the worst mistake in this build is the damp proofing detail to the concrete slab and retaining wall, which will in the not to distant future come to cause the householder a very major and costly problem to resolve. Also the manner in which the right hand cavity wall is constructed is totally incorrect. If you are going to use a rigid cavity insulation, you must build the inside skin first so as the celotex cavity insulation can be correctly clipped and held firmly against the inside skin, leaving a cavity between this and the outside brickwork. From what i can see they have not used any ties at all on this wall. The split course of brickwork above the lintel is on page one of the book of school boy errors and is a shining example of piss poor workmanship. I dare say this work was carried out for a speculative developer who then sold the property on, but if you are unlucky enough to now be the owner i would down load this video and keep a copy of it safely as it will form the basis of your claim against this company. Look up their google reviews, not the fake ones that they paid for but the genuine ones that give them one star, also a member of the federation of master builders, REALLY ??? what does this tell you about the federation of master builders, google them also and see their reputation. The finished job inside looks good i have to say but the catalog of errors and poor workmanship along the way beggars belief, i pity anyone who is hoodwinked into instructing this company to carry out their extension.
@@felimuller909 All the other mistakes aside, in the UK balconies on a roof like that are not normally allowed, certainly not without planning permission, and in a close terrace like this I think would not be allowed due to overlooking the neighbours gardens and first floor rooms.
It was probably done by Romanians, no such regulations in Romania, I’ve seen my fair share of shoddy extensions built by Eastern Europeans and/or Indian builders. Not saying they can’t do the job but the customer employs them because they’re cheap and they use methods of their homelands and not what’s expected in the UK. Anyhow I’m fed up of being called to correct what’s been done wrong.
Surprised both neighbors approved the planing permission I mean how much light they've lost
Don’t thick either side has lost to much building has not gone up much more than original garden walls
Look at the original wall
These are what are called excellent builders great 👍 job
Bravo pour cette belle rénovation..
Wow were the neighbours pleased to have their daylight diminished ? I'm not sure that I would be unless we all got extentions at the same time !
The wall kinda looks the same height at the beginning as the end.
If they were planning too they've had a third of the job done for them.......
I’d love to know how many tons came out that back yard,some serious digging there lads well done 💪
I would say 200 tons ??
Good video that enjoyed it looks lovely 👍
Fun times ahead with that flat roof.
Interesting to see how they build stuff across the pond.
2:58 what happens if that drain pipe cracks? It does not even look straight on the wall. The weight of the concrete?
Manual labour is definitely not a Mexican bandit to this team..excellent
This music is fab 😂 it makes it seem so easy . 🤣 Flipping hard work!!
Building over the boundary on both sides. Inconsiderate to their neighbours. Will be interesting to know what the party wall agreement says.

Lovely..... But i feel sorry for the neighbours, must have cut the light out of their place considerably
How?

Fantastic job 👍
Ummm.... Since they already build it why not at a fence/board on the "roof" so that it can be a balcony with bbq and chill space? Or just line it with solar panel to save money in long run.
Because you won't get planning permission for a BBQ / chill space that has you looking in the window of someone else's flat.
Out of gauge for sure to have a split over the lintel

Labour intensive digging out !! Great job looks really good finish
Look's great!!! Nice HOME office) with Relaxing zone! Bst rgds from Russia.)
Hard to believe it's London, so little rain...
Did we watch the same video?
Watch the roof from 6:00 onwards...looks like it rains every night and drys in the day.
What about the neighbours on both sides here, that extension has got to have blocked a lot of their light, and restricted the pleasure for them of being in their homes.
However, according to laws “natural light” isn’t a necessity
Look at the original wall
@@Tokaisho1 yes, observe how the 1st floor window now has a flat roof in touching distance, and on the other side of the house the wall has raised by about a foot to accommodate the roof. Ok if you like claustrophobic living though (or rather, if you don't mind imposing that on your neighbours lives). . . . I wonder too if this structure hasn't created strong eddy's in the neighbours yards. Sure it looks very nice for the insulated dweller, but our lives really extend beyond the world we create don't they - or at
least in order to maintain communities to live in they should. BWs 🙋
WTF, you all shovelled all that soil away by hand! Respect 👍The finished product looks so good. Well done guys 🤘
Excellent group of workers
Can anyone explain to me why there's no ventilation in the walls next to the insulation? And why the wooden beams that are connecting to the walls are untreated? Am I missing something?
Took them a month remove all the dirt.1 whole month of digging that's insane
They should of just hired a 2.7 digger for the day lol. However if no excess threw the back below this camera..makes sense as to why they didnt.
@@patrixmatrix7163 You can always crane one in. I do groundwork in London and I've never understood why these firms don't just use mini diggers. They must be charging client per labourer per day... can't imagine they're on price work at that rate!!!
Yeah a one ton mini digger 🤷♂️
One hole month? Were they digging with spoons?
@@josesosa3082 I would bet it had something to do with trucking it/ldisposal.

Something relaxing watching others hard at work, & not me doing any lol.
Surprise twist...this video is reversed...they are actually tearing down the extension and planting a yard...
N they poop to pop grass lol
You are genius
U have finish work with in few minute
A lot of workers at the same times for this video, usually you get 2/3 workers taking break every 10 minutes and disappearing regularly (to do another job elsewhere?)
@Swissffun Nani I completely agree with you
@Swissffun Nani I can't agree more. Should be a standard in the whole Europe.
I have always found as a rule for an extension like this the cost is covered by the increase in value. Is it so in this home? good job btw
Robin Welch in London almost definitely. Same could be said for most inner city extensions. In the country it’s a little less cut and dry, an extension probably won’t add as much as space is at less of a premium.
4:47 rebuild internal wall. not knockin it...great video really enjoyed...nice
Wow just wow big up good builders 👍🥳🥳🥳
