Got to sit down ,head rush, absolutely cracking me up. I know the feeling, cutting those slabs and they snap on you. Happens to us all but i do find the 4 inch grinder better. Keep up the good work mate and what a brilliant video. From 1 Welsh brickie to another all the best
I have laid tile long enough to get bad knees (I’m really old). I have also watched too many RUclips videos and struggled as I watched people try to lay tile who have also watched too many RUclips videos. Thank you for knowing your craft. I hope your customers know how lucky they are.
Happy birthday justin 🎉 and I feel your pain with all those levels going on especially the frigging tiles cracking that really does my head in 👍🏴
@@brickrightbuildinglandscaping hahaha just pay me 50 pound hahahhahahah not mean it not many good ones left now day all young ones going game getting brain washed now days same in my game one reasons am falling out of love with it
@Danny hogi Yea im old school weather thats a good or bad thing Danny i dont no .its not just about the money job has to be the best i can achieve thats all i do mate . Glad you like the videos times change dont i no it sometimes for the better sometimes not . Take care and thanks again always appreciate your comments always positive 👍👍👊
Never seen a patio thats been twisted and turned to suit levels without putting big straight joints in work until now. That was a great insight. To how its done. Nice one justin and the boys 👍
Hello there Fantastic job there you've done Not easy doing what you have done True honest professional To all of you Looking forward to seeing your next video Take care pal
Wowzers, great tutorial and a good honest video. I really appreciate all your insights Justin and it was great fun to watch and I also felt the pain too. The job looks awesome mate👏👏😎 PS Happy birthday 21 did I hear you say🤔
Chris im only 25 mate x2 🤣🤣 ive always tried to make a headache fun laughter is the best medicine. Appreciate the comment chris hope your victorian build is going well 👍 👌
😂😂😂 that video was brilliant you lot made me piss , I lay porcelain all day everyday so I know the difficulty you can have but it looks like you’ve done a great job well done 👏
Hey Steve scott here got a question where are you based I’m planning a Uk tour soon doing site visits be good to pop in and bring you some coffees 👍🏴
Happy Birthday Justin, 50 eh - you’re only a boy still so no worries. I would have loved some footage of your 6 mile run round the field, but hey can’t have everything! Great result on this job after all the complications and nice to say hello to Brad again. Well done boys, you cracked it!
FairPlay for adjusting and overcoming that Justin and the boys…think I’m mentally scared from the one I was involved in laying 3 years ago 🤯 lord give me sandstone 🤓🙏 Happy Birthday aswell bud 🎯 (keep having the craic lads)😂🤣😂👏👏👏
I felt your pain there Justin, just had the same on the last patio we did (porcelain), worst one was 4 attempts, had a few 3's and a couple of 2 attempts. We decided no more porcelain😅😅 Back on good old Indian sandstone now.
Not many on RUclips share what a hard product it is to work with Paul. Manufacturers should take more ownership of there products aswell. Definitely not easy and then it gets expensive all the breakages and time it takes it puts a lot of pressure on the installer. Thanks paul Justin 👍 👍
Hilarious video boys ! I’m a little worried now tho as I’ve just had 90 sq m of porcelain arrive in the same packaging as yours ! It came from Lancashire ! Nice to see Brad too. Happy birthday Justin !
Thanks Mark Was good seeing Brad i wish him the very best .your porcelain will be fine just use the right blades it is what it is you be fine . Thanks mark 👍
Hi there. I had the same problem with porcelain slabs breaking. I used a porcelain diamond blade, but the slabs still shattered.. I did think about using the screading method. Look like it worked well done 👏
Hi Justin, fantastic job as usual especially disguising the change in level. I am starting my L shape patio today, how would you go round a 90 degree corner with the fall going towards the house into ACO’s? Would you do a diagonal cut on the corner or try and disguise like you have on this and other jobs? Any advice much appreciated 👍🏻
Thanks Clarke. Very difficult to explain as there are so many eventualities. Id lay on the principle of this video and try to avoid if possible any 45 or 90 degree lines in the patio if that's possible. Hope that helps you 👍 and good luck hope it goes well for you mate 👍 😀
Great job Justin you are a true proffesional, can i ask what grout are you using at the minute. I have just laid 60 sq meters of light grey porcelain tiles and have bought Azpects EasyGrout slurry mix in dark grey but I am a bit nervous to use it.
Hi Chet Appreciate your comment. We used flow point smooth in charcoal on this one .I have used the fuga pave ch grout and i find that brilliant but its totally different to flowpoint. Never used any Aspects products so i can comment on it . I no john at greentop has used Aspects and ive heard i likes it johns a very good professional so hopefully you be ok. Good luck. Justin 👍
If you can overcome a job like that,then you can overcome anything Justin mate....50 is the new 40 I say🤣...I'm 52 this year and grunt like a pig getting up on a morning but that's just the job we do I suppose?I still enjoy my work but sometimes get stressed keeping everyone happy at this time of the year with drives/patios/walls etc.I can't understand why customers phone me this time of the year expecting me to fit them in more or less straight away knowing fine well I'm gonna be chocka🙈,crazy!Anyway,Happy birthday Justin mate👍😁
Thanks Dave Was a mad one to do this one to be honest. Yea i dont answer my phone Dave got a pre set answer message so they can leave a message if willing to wait other wise i answer the phone for a 10mins call for nothing mare . They all want ut done next week its the world we live in im affraid. Good luck you and the lads dave appreciate the post . Justin 👍
looking great as always justin. 2 questions. 1. what whacker do you use? mine went up the blink yesterday and now got to buy a new one, but cant afford to spend big bucks on an expensive one, so looking at the lower priced ones between £350 and £500. and 2. could you do a video on how you cut your curves? cheers Just
I have a wacker neuson bomb proof not cheap though. As for the curve there must be a video somewhere on here cant think Jack. Next time ill show it for you mate 👍
Haha pisser mate them marshalls tiles are questionable at times. Some cut better than others them the arento grey. Superb job Justin. Find all the different manufacturers tiles cut differently. London stone sent a fully coloured same if tie out to customer. Then when they sent the tiles they all had a solid 6mm black vien through the middle very cheeky on there part. The odd just see it doing through slightly. In yet got bullnose 1,s for stairs they were fine think some these manufacturers tell some porkies at times. Some tiles aren’t true also get we dips on the edges. Had 1200mm from talasey level hard on it 4ft level bottom end odd tile 1-1/2mm gap. Wee tip buddy probs do anyway keep the bone dry mot deck damp wetted down.
Yea your spot on with all that lee fully agree .manufacturers defo need to take more responsibility on there products. Yea we wet the mot mate especially in this weather now . Appreciate your posts as always mate 👍
Its worth the effort its lovely product in many ways but to cut and install it takes a lot of skill .Its an unforgiving product that needs detail to achieve tbe best results 👌
@Brickright building & landscaping true yeah your work always is top notch make it look too easy hehe, i use a rubi saw on rails for cuts is basically an angle grinder as a small plunge circular saw shape havnt really had any issues with breakages just time consuming going 3-4mm a pass , I buggered one up 60m² with the grouting after all the hard work that went in to it was so defeating, decided just to stick with natural and concrete now and just the odd repair work on porcelain
Yes, In my short experience laying 30m² of porcelain tiles I had much more success with the stated combo over a more expensive (and probably longer lasting) diamond blade by Marcrist.
Got to sit down ,head rush, absolutely cracking me up. I know the feeling, cutting those slabs and they snap on you. Happens to us all but i do find the 4 inch grinder better.
Keep up the good work mate and what a brilliant video.
From 1 Welsh brickie to another all the best
Thanks Tony appreciate it mate porcelain can be very frustrating to work with 👍🏴

IMO opinion the only way to cut porcelain is with a 4" grinder and an Abracs porcelain blade. Gotta be a continuous cut blade as thin as you can find
Yea its a difficult product you think youve mastered it and then crack .
Bigger blade more vibration so i get your point totally.
Cheers 👍
@@brickrightbuildinglandscaping I compare porcelain to women. You never know when it's gonna crack eh !
Yes, In my short experience laying 30m² of porcelain tiles I had much more success with the stated combo over a more expensive (and probably longer lasting) diamond blade by Marcrist.
