- Almost there!
One more video and we will be complete up to DPC🥳
Not ideal with the soil pipes cutting through the PIR, but what can I do? I can't achieve the fall if I drop under the PIR, so this is the only option I can see.
Viewing figures are down by 50% so I'm not sure what's going to happen to the channel, because seems a bit pointless putting all the effort in if no one is watching, appreciate your thoughts on this.

I like you Liam so this isn’t hate it’s just an opinion, personally I was taught when I did ground work to never lay a plastic pipe in concrete, recipe for disaster, concrete moves, plastic cracks. We surrounded them in a solid base and sand around the pipes then stones and concrete
I love watching your build. I've been a subscriber for a number of years and regularly enter your raffles. All the best going forward Liam.
thanks mate
Same always a great watch. Do miss the garden room videos
Jobs looking good Liam. Really enjoyed the segment of the job at your friends 👍
I might be wrong it’s a long time since I’ve done oversight. I think the polythene should be over the top of the insulation and also you should allow 2 to 3 inches of floor screed that will be your finish floor obviously you’ve got to do that when the building is in the dry have a good one, mate 👍👍🍺⭐️
Love all your videos Liam. It seems so sad seeing you sat there on your own, after having a whole team around you. But I know you know what you're doing. Come back bigger, better, badder lol
All the best. Keep happy, keep working, Christmas be here soon Ho Ho Ho (from Secret Santa)
Loving watching your videos on this. Your step by step of the trench blocks was so clear and enjoyable. What’s interesting me is why you went for a concrete slab with all the sand and hardcore. With those heights, and drainage invert, maybe a timber suspended floor and simple solum would have saved you a lot of all that moving, digging and levelling, whilst achieving the u values? Getting sand, DPM and then all the chairs and such for the mesh, then the concrete pour, then the top floor, load of extra work and cash.
Also on your drainage, you could have considered a mini pumping station, get the soil pipes as you have them to the unit deeper than you have them, and then a coil of 63mm mdpe pipe to the drain slightly uphill.
Thanks for great content.
just a suggestion try using the words tiny house or small house build.not sure anyone outside the UK knows what an annex is including the RUclips bot... hopefully might help the channel get the views it should be.👍👍
I hope she made that plumbing job worth your while Liam ;-)
😋
I’ve been thinking about it when I’ve done it I put the stone over the pipe then sand on top of the stone so it doesn’t punch her your insulation polythene on top of the insulation concrete 2 to 3 inches below damp and then floor screed when the building is weathered just check that I am right because I wouldn’t want you to have to rip it all out again after all your hard work. Have a good one.
I’ve seen instances where the 110mm pipe has had to run through the insulation so whilst not ideal I wouldn’t worry about it! Needs must 😀 Someone rightly commented about not concreting around pipes but that small amount you used to support the pipe will not cause an issue. Keep slogging on. Love your attitude to it all 😀
I can smell that pipe from here 😂😂 The reason for the seconed dpm is to stop the concrete attacking the installation.. so a building reg requirement. Great video again keep up the good work 👏
shocking standard of work in your friends house, I don't know how some tradesmen live with what they do. shameful. you're a good man for fixing it.
I got under a customers floor today Liam to take a look at the wiring, i got down with a squeeze and gravity on my side, as for getting back up i was stuck because it was so tight and im a short arse with a modest dad bod😂 customer not in so im panicking half of me sticking out of the floor, luckily they had two crates of pepsi i could grab and use a step ffs , loving the channel and would happily pay subscription to 👍
thats funny mate! getting out is always the hardest
Fooking funny that story mate😂 made my day.
Great vid once again mate. Helping me loads with my extension. Thanks! 👍🏼
I hope the ladies earth bonding is up to spec because theres alot of ring cables coiled around them coppers Liam 🤣 love the content mate. Definitely agree with the previous comment about researching RUclips algorithm to pull in a bigger audience. Your videos are top quality and deserve more views!
its messy under there aint it😬
@@thegardenroomguru just a bit 🤣 typical subfloor. Who needs a skip lol
I’d have to start again with that mess do it all properly and neat would keep me awake at night once I’d seen it 😂
@@russnunn2456 you know mate 🤣 would cause ptsd!
😂
saw the "liam sized access hole" video the other day and, to be fair, i would love to see an update of that one to see how all those issues have been fixed eventually, looks like one of those b&q builders have been round 👍
Hi Liam, not to sure what’s happened to you and where have you gone for the next episode! I was following as I’m doing a double garage footings. If you’ve moved to make us pay to follow then I’m out as I never understood why your vides switch to other jobs and not stick to the main job, know-body is going to pay for that I’m afraid. I’ve bought many tickets but never been lucky! It was good that you shown the prices of materials that was quite interesting.
Great video, thanks
Good job with the soil pipe, Liam.
In hindsight, it might have been better to pack the soil pipe to the correct fall and then spray expanding foam under the pipe, which would secure in place and maintain the thermal insulation.
Obviously, if this is something you've never done before, then it's an improved way to do it next time.
It's probably something I'd consider doing when I build an annexe, and not because I know better than you, because I don't. It's just an observation I've made thinking about how I could improve it, but in reality, if I were to have done it before seeing you do yours, I probably wouldn't have done it as good as what you've done it now.
So, I'm not criticising you, I think you've done a great job 👍
I subscribe, buy raffle tickets and I’m still watching your content but I guess I am missing the banter that you had with the garden rooms crew.
Zero chance 50% of viewers pay to watch these videos. Once you put something behind a paywall you'll be lucky if 5% of people pay for it. If you want proof of this just look at how many people who watch your videos aren't subscribed to your channel and that's free to do. The conversion rates for paywalls will tank your channel.
I watch every single video he makes but I wouldn’t pay to watch, I don’t pay to watch anything
Totally agree, there is no way I would pay to watch anything on RUclips. There are plenty of other channels full of information on building houses and extentions that are free to watch and as Liam said if he is unsure about something he reverts back to RUclips in order to learn how to do it. I do appreciate the content that Liam provides.
Giving thousand quid away in same video complaining running out of money makes no sense….
@@richardhammond7406 Greed comes to mind
@@richardhammond7406 Your dead right mate
Liam - why not start a RUclips membership?
I’d put another visqueen layer above the insulation before the concrete. Seen it described as a vapour barrier or a separation layer. In the scheme of things it’s a few pennies!
On another subject, in your earlier video about costings for material and the savings you can make by ringing around- I’ve just used Farmacs for some garden walling blocks and aggregates- saved a couple of hundred and got delivery within 2 days! Good recommendation thanks 😊
I’m not an expert so can’t offer examples, but I would really recommend researching the RUclips algorithm and how thumbnails and titles can significantly help your views - I think it’s something you would really benefit from Liam. All the best on the build too, loving the videos
cheers mate
yes definatley...seen plenty of rubbish videos with good viewing numbers drawn by catchy titles etc, seems key words work
They seem to be making thumbnails with a head line like my building disaster and a picture of something going wrong that’s completely false off course .you could say my annex build fell down a sink hole and photoshop a picture 😂😂😂
Just a little bit of bleeping might help the channel Liam, we all swear when working and things don’t work out but bleeping is required for you tube monetisation I understand from watching other channels that had problems.
Thank goodness we don’t have smelly-vision 😂
Cracking job in your friends house Liam, Think I would have knocked a few bricks out and made a farking door lol....... Keep er lit bro
I hope she appreciates the graft Liam
Post a lot of shorts mate. Funny moments etc should help with views. Also maybe do some reaction videos to other peoples content in the industry and some live q&a streams.
20:19 That opening where the laser is sitting should defo have a lintel!!! Someone on the ground floor above just needs to jump enthusiastically and they'll be through the floor!!
Concrete reacts with the foil on the insulation so I'm told by various buildings inspectors and other trade mates. Can weaken the floor as gas is given off and also the gasses can be deadly inside a shut up property so best if internal to used a second layer or gas membrane, like a thinner gauge usually I've used. Externally you should be fine on that part
You wouldn’t have got into the floor cavity a few weeks ago 👍👍👍😆😆😆😆only Banter pipe full of old dishwasher food over the years it’s all fun at the end of the day 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺
As an idea, a few standalone DIY videos may do well and increase the audience. The waste pipe palaver was good viewing!
Happy to support if you do go down the membership or Patreon route.
The concrete reacts with the foil face of the pir best to have a second layer of dpm. 👍
Liam you legend. Where have you gone.
Back real soon mate, I’ll explain
Maybe start a just giving page rather than subscription or pay pal. Its easy to pay money every now and then that way and i think people tend to contribute when they are in control of paymenrd and when they see others contributing. If you then dont get amounts you need for the build you can consider your next step. I appdeciate how much money, time and effort you are ploughing jnto this and it needs to be econmically viable.
Right Liam , sorry I made a comment about how white your teeth are but I’ve just bought some raffle tickets …… pick me a prize . All the best mate , loving the channel , I like your mentality mate . You got this
What do i put in the promo code box for the raffle
The wiring is shocking Liam, Joints all over and wiring wrapped around the pipes.
Have you got the concrete down yet?
I thought you was taking the hot and cold water feeds across from kitchenette to bathroom under the floor also? Thats what your plumber mate was on about a few videos back anyway.
Liam, have you checked out the dry HepVo waste traps (other brands are available)?
no mate, ill look
Liam, sorry to ask on this video, but i thought I might have more chance of a reply. When you used to put the box sheet cladding on the garden rooms, did you use 4.8mm rivets ?
Did you put rebar in foundation?
Mate, love the Chanel and not being a dick in pointing this out. The videos have just got too long for me to watch. A ten minute video I will watch it daily. Half annhour plus is too much for me then I loose track of the series. Keep it up.
Mate just carry on putting out good content with lots of info, the views will come. No chance many people will pay to watch, would be a shame if you went that way
Looks like a Blaymire Job 😂
Mr A builders on RUclips did a similar thing with insulation around a soil pipe?
I’m a plumber , and old drainage smells are far worse than toilet smells . I’ve gagged many times breaking into kitchen waste systems 🤮
The reason you need to put a membrane over your insulation is because concrete can react with it and it can fuck up your concrete floor, I would’ve covered it, I would rather spend a few quid on polythene than a good few thousand on redoing your concrete
@Liam: Try a few catchy you tube shorts to draw 'em in. Also (doesn't bother me but...) swearing might deter some or reduce You tube's recommendation algorithm. In theory I'd say I'd be happy to pay but in reality it might not happen 🤷♂️
Cheeky git asking for money 😂 do it for love not money! either film it or don’t… it’s still yours, you pay for it. Lol!
Edit - I’ve just watched a full add without skipping, just for you Liam 😅
Liam I would definitely pay a couple of pounds a month for subscription. I suspect a fair few people would as I want to see this through to completion. Would probs make sense to keep some videos free maybe a shorter one once a week or something that summarises where you’re at and also serves to drive people to the more in depth videos behind the paywall… 👍
cheers mate, appreciate the comment, going to have a good think about it all this coming week
His channel dies if he follows your advice I think
@@4490Mark don’t see why as long as there’s still plenty good stuff on the free tier etc but yes am no expert etc likely best to listen to a range of ideas, main thing I would reiterate is that speaking only personally I would definitely be willing to pay as I think this is a great project 👍👍
That pipe work fk me if I saw that I wouldn’t know if I’d laugh or cry. Truly awful
How's the update on the annexe going
Maybe condense the videos? I dont mind long watches but its meant to be an annox how to and now im watching you plumbing at your friends house.
What is that 13 amp plug doing in that void 🤦🏼♂️,,,, O’ And I bet you six months ago you would have struggled to through that hole in the floor 🙊💪🏻👍🏻✌🏻
Hi liam my name is WILLIAM GRIFFITHS im a 55 year old master carpenter from south wales always watch your videos love your energy I would love to help to keep you going how do i subscribe to paypall to help you out and you never know maybe i could give you some tips along the way
I’m no expert but I would have used expanding foam under the pipe instead of mortar. Let it set and cut away the excess 👍🏻😬
lol yep or sand because concrete will probably crack that pipe
Brilliant work Liam. All looking good. People generally don’t pay additional to watch content (I already pay RUclips £12 a month). But you could ask for a donation at end of show and explain why (just a quick sentence), which I would happily give 👍🏼👌🏼
Ever heard of a thing called a bucket
91k subscribers...does that not bring you any money in?
Most of them only wanted the garden room channel
You'd be better off member only live streams and then editing down the footage for people as well but making that public to all
I've loved your content for a few years now. But I can see where issues could be happening to stop new people enjoying it. Would be really interesting to see your audience retention. I'd guess that intro, to anyone new would cause a drop off.
Does anybody know what has happened to Liam….
Why didn't u run foul pipe outside of building 😒
I am no plumber but that's shit
I know you want to stay true to yourself and that's how you are but youtube may affect your algorithms because of your swearing. it does happen and I've seen others avoid swearing.
@@matthewwalker6384 you know, I completely forgot about that, did notice it had increased, say no more 😬🤦🏻♂️
@thegardenroomguru also. the second dpm is usually a vapour barrier. First dpm gets lapped in to the block work and second vapour dpm gets lapped up the internal wall behind plasterboard. building control should really know that but from all the inspectors I've dealt with in Manchester they all work to what ever rules they like. I always thought the worked to the same policies and rules but I guess not.
Can you not try a go fund me?
As a matter of interest, how much do you earn from this channel with 91k subscribers? I think if your viewers knew that you didn't earn much for all the effort you put into making these videos, they might be more inclined to help you out. On the other hand, if you were making thousands they might think otherwise.🤔
Nobody is going to pay you for watching you make mistakes dude.
So basically,You want us to pay for you to build a nice new extension, putting a lot of value on your property for when you sell it hahahahahh unbelievable, I like watching you're content,but I certainly aren't paying a subscription so Yiu can build a extension FFS , madness
I’d straight pay £5 a month am sure a few of the diehard fans will too
Stop looking for money, shouldn’t have folded your garden rooms company and went solo on RUclips. What you had was fine, but you wanted the change.
Claiming poverty and then giving thousands away ?
He’s not giving it away
He profits on the raffles
@@4490Mark only if he sells enough tickets and so far nowhere near

Hi Liam, it would be a shame if this went behind a pay wall as I don’t think many will subscribe. I keep buying some raffle tickets, subscribed, enjoy the back catalogue and will continue to support the channel. As a fellow loiner, I like the Leeds references 🦏. Stick with it chava, your channel is one of my favourites on You Tube 😊
