Kids nowadays want to be in charge instead of learning from the ground up. What a master bricklayer does takes years of training and doing. What a planner/estimator, designer, and coordinator, plus a customer service person, is beyond most people's ability. I left out the myriad of additional tasks. It leaves little time for a life. The immaculate and precise results are breathtaking. Thank you for bringing us along!
@counseloridealist
I fully agree it all takes a lot of time to even try and master each individual task and I thank you for recognising that .The job lots of us do doesn't gain much respect people stereotype it .
35 years in ive a lot to still learn when I'm retired I still wouldn't of learned it all .
Very good comment and I've tried to keep my son grounded and focused he wants to learn so his journey has begun.
Really good post that appreciate you sharing your views.

@@brickrightbuildinglandscaping In today's world, it can sometimes feel like there's a rush to skip steps and get to the top, but the reality is that true mastery comes from building a strong foundation first. The work you describe is a testament to that-it's not just about laying bricks; it's about creating something truly remarkable through years of effort and dedication...
'Shoveling food in your gob' lol tell him Fraze 😂.
Great work as always 👍🏻👍🏻
@@chrisoneill3815
😂😂 was shovelling but not food chris 😂😂😂👍🙌
Another quality brickwork lesson - thank you Justin.
Loving the brickie banter with Fraser - he’s picking it up well.
Looking forward to the next one - this is a fantastic project, the homeowner picked a great contractor for this project 👍
The French drain behind the wall is an excellent idea - something that I shall file away for the future 👍
Appreciate it thanks Jet 👍
Great explanation and a great job. You mentioned sympathy? I think you can find it in the dictionary between s**t and syphilis 😂. Keep up the great work guys.
😂😂😂 great cheers job 👍
Thanks very much for the really helpful videos. Please keep them coming

@jamieholmes7605
I no Jamie the heat got to me 🤣🤣👍
Justin , I'm sure your boy has 30+ years catch-up of shoveling to get to your level. Great job.
@@tommywalker9437
Spot on well said Tommy 😂😂😂👏👍
At 0:50 I have a similar front garden issue. My neighbours side to the left is 1 to 1.5ft higher than my garden ie my section of the garden that meets that side is the same height with a stone wall ie 1.5ft high
But the rest of my garden is 1.5ft lower.
I wanted to level my garden and wanted to know if I would need any footings to retain 1.5ft of soil or could I use a gravel board fence and concrete posts?
Sorry just need some advise
@Mobile-pd1uc
You could use concrete gravel boards and posts .
Me personally though I would add a wall and foundations its a better job in my opinion
Ha, ha...us brickies are something else!
Too cold.... can't lay in that, the frost will ruin it
Too hot.....bloody mortar will dry too quickly
Too windy....my wall will blow over if I build too high
Too wet.....bricks and mortar will be swimming all over the shop
We're never happy for long, but we still love the job for some bizarre reason 😂😂
Yep spot on with that Jim mate 😂😂🙌
Bloody Hell! Schofield has put some weight on! :D
I'll be honest, I never meant that to be as insulting as it seemed! Sorry!
I've got a good sense of humour I'm not bothered 😂😂😂🙌👍
You want to see my belly ive turned into a right fat ###t lol 👍🏴
Building steps look quite complicated! 🫣 But if you do it right, then very rewarding 👍
Spot on 👍
First of all, I really appreciate the series and your explanations, so thanks! My question is: assuming I don't care about how the weep holes look if I use more than one as you suggested could be an alternative, can I then just not bother about the tube behind the wall? Would I still back fill with the rocks like you did?
@@unfair_dinkum
One weep hole every 4 bricks is ok with the same fill behind the wall.
Fraser doing the hard graft lol you're too highly skilled to be bothering with a shovel
@@mdmconstruction
😂😂.I wish that was the case 😂😂👍
Hi do you lay a border around the patio first lab up to it or opposite way around cheers and being layed on a stone. & dust mix but struggling with it any help will be great I love where this job is if you wanna pop around to give advice 👍
@matthewgarland3168
Hi Matthew
If you want to ring me I've no problem having a chat to help you.
If you want me to call out to you there will be a charge for that mate so up to you 👍
Coming back to this as I’m close to the drainage stage (finally) and I’m wondering how those land drains are connected to that weephole.
Are they simply left without end caps so the water freely runs in that area so it eventually comes out of that weephole?
I saw a bit of plastic in that weephole so I’m wondering if that’s a special weephole contraption or just a bit of something for another purpose shoved in there?
No special fixing or connector Marcus.The plastic piece set in the wall is just a bit of square guttering.
I left the open end of the land drain up against the bit of gutter so any water can flow out mate .
Hope that helps you 👍
@@brickrightbuildinglandscaping it does buddy, thank you so much!
Fantastic as always Justin. Love it buddy.
Just a quick question, why is it 5mm joints? I thought patio joints are 10mm, or does it not matter?
@@MarcusT86
5 mm is standard for porcelain 10mm for Indian Sandstone marcus 👍🙌
@@brickrightbuildinglandscaping thanks mate. Glad you said that as I plan on using Indian sandstone and I’ve worked out my measurements with 10mm joints 😆
Is using sand and cement archaic now and is it better to use a modern product?
@MarcusT86
If you mean to point it I'd use flowpoint but you need to no what your doing. Sand and cement is still ok to use im my opinion 👍
@@brickrightbuildinglandscaping I’ll go for that then buddy. Sand and cement it is.
Sorry mate I know you've responded to me once already, but I've watched about 6 times, and also a lot of your other vids and am getting near the point in my DIY project where I need to think about drainage. First q: what are you using as the weep hole? 100mm by 100mm pvc is hard to find apparently... and second, where the land drains 'aim' at the weep hole, are they just dumping water there, or are they connected to the weep hole bit somehow? Thanks again - let me know if I can pay for a lunch for you guys somehow since your help is really appreciated.
@unfair_dinkum
Weep.hole.is from.screw fix was a length of 65 or 75mm square downpipe.
All the land drains are angled so if water does enter them the water will flow to the weep hole .
There is no connection to the weep hole but the land drains are placed right at the exit point of the weep hole .
Hope that helps you out good luck 👍
Good video mate just for the record 450 is guage not 475
Your are of course spot on didn't even notice 😂 lots of numbers In my head working out steps 👍😂
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) like ibuprofen or naproxen can help manage pain and inflammation. In severe cases, surgery might be necessary to remove the calcium deposits. This is usually done arthroscopically, meaning small incisions are made, and a camera is used to guide the procedure...
@lucianaldritch3409
Very good advice I appreciate you sharing it .The pain is intense from it having a guided cortisol injection Thursday another £450 quid but hopefully it helps.
Been diagnosed privately waiting for nhs now for next steps .wish me luck probably take years .
Appreciate you take care Lucian thanks 👍
Justin, you didn't get your chiselled six-pack from just watching!
@RichardDowd
😂😂😂 nice one Rich more like a keg mate 👍
Still waiting for you to do a job on my house in Swansea 😂

@@brickrightbuildinglandscaping 😂😂 nice work guys not to far away 30 minutes
Nice bit of brickwork that only thing i would do differently is i would have tanked back of wall as well as land drain
Thanks still don't no your first name ?
Yea I've done this before a valid point I didn't think on this one it needed it but good point 👌
Nice job Justin. Is it my imagination or have you got a bit more insulation around your waistline lately 🤔😆
