What a nice young man, skilled, right attitude and the way he trains the other chap, its all very good. I bet he is in demand !
Thanks so much mate really appreciate it 😊
As much as a faff as reclaimed bricks are I don't think you can beat them aesthetically. Lovely job.
Cheers mate appreciate it!
Plus if your brickies aren't as professional or skilled as the guys here. Reclaimed bricks don't have to be mixed, and boy have I seen some shocking unmixed brickwork!
lovely to see young fellas having the skills and the mindset to do a quality job and it pays off, A good job means a happy client and that means a happy business, Win, and Win all around.
Thanks so much Rob really appreciate it! And you couldn't be more right!
Quality job as always pal! Quick tip when concreting up to aco drains, remove the lids and then put them back on afterwards, saves you less cleaning and gives a better finish up to them
Eeey thanks so much for that mate appreciate that tip..wish I saw this before I load the rest of them with week😂! Hope your well brother, have a great weekend 😊
Hi I liked laying reclaimed bricks found out laying bow bricks to the top all ways looked good when pointed keep the good work up
Looks fantastic..really like the look of the reclaimed bricks
Thanks Paul, I loved how they turned out😊
Another good Vid mate👌, to be honest unless there was Blues on existing I wouldn't bother, just a lot of uneccasery agg unless you can source some Imperial size ones. You can use Dampcore or similar on them reveals,far better than cavity closers..
Thanks very much Andy appreciate it! Hope your well and enjoyed your break
Izzy if you have damp coming through an opening with just a roof above it you've got serious problems with your roof i dont put damps in either with a roof just above an opening its pointless and like said above and the reason for the damp sticking out is so the building inspector can see its in its the same as dpc above ground
Cheers Pedro appreciate that information 😊 hope your well, new video out later on today! Enjoy the rest of your weekend
The old bricks and of course your brick work looks fantastic 👏😎
Thanks Neil, really appreciate it! Loved how they turned out!😊
Great videos and love watching your videos. Thanks for sharing this.
Thanks Delvin, pleased your enjoying them! New video out for you today 😊
Another great vid on reclaimed brickwork. Digged your gloves Izzy! As always a top notched job! Good to see Drew coming into his own, but helping him out when needed! Brave wearing shorts in that rain! Good info again on work detail, but also envious how you manage the gym after a day's grafting!
Thanks very much Alan! Drew was on the trowel again loads this week, you can see him getting some bricks laid in the newest video out in a few hours 😊 somehow I find the energy 😂😂 have a brilliant weekend mate
Loved the raised purpose manufactured spot boards, had murder when the Trafford Centre was being built when I started to raise the brickies spot boards with block, but after a while the traditional bricks got use to not bending down to gather the mortar every time. Progress Finally !! ps great job with the reclaimed.
Nice job. Brickwork looking good
Great watching a professional work
I would say if in doubt install damp tray but as a rule if angle from bottom of fascia to lintel is less than 45 degrees no need
Thanks mate😊
Defo worth the effort cleaning up the old brick. Leaves a great finish to the job. 👍🏻
Client did an amazing job at cleaning all the bricks up💪💪 hope your well! New video out today 😊
Nice going lads!
Thanks buddy!
Great content Izzy, I like that you give credit to other tradesmen, Steve and Alex to mention 2, explanation of technical items takes viewing to another level, keep it up 👍👍
Thanks very much buddy 😊
Your apprentice seems like a good lad.
Thanks so much mate I appreciate it, New video out later on tomorrow! Hope your well
Love the old bricks!! Barely see them nowadays in Scotland, mostly pink granite or fifestone where I am!
Thanks Aidan! These old bricks have so much character 😊
Looks pukka.. love how you work n your eye for detail.. Great video
Thanks very much Ricky, appreciate it! New video out today and hope you're enjoying your long weekend
Great tip on drains, as always brick Wok bang on
Thanks Joe, appreciate it brother! New video out later on today
Great Video i enjoy watching good workmanship .
Thanks mate!
Nice to see a bit of concreteing aswell just a tip use a dryer mix simlar to your pointing mix and screed it with wooden float you will find it a hell of a lot easer
Thanks very much Andrew, appreciate that tip! Hope your well! New video out today 😊
I am on the job for over 35yrs in Ireland and we always close the revels over ere... on every job ..... interesting ur take on them...
Just different methods in different areas of the country I've found 😊 hope your well mate and enjoying your week! New video out today 😊
@@IzzytheBricky all good mate.... love ur vids.... keep up the great work... best brickie on ere...
Nice finish
Great job
Cheers Mark!
Those reclaimed bricks look so much nicer than modern bricks.
Couldn't agree more with you mate!
Hey Izzy! Just wanted to drop a comment and say hello and thanks :) I think I have now just about made my way through all of your videos :) An amazing channel, really enjoying the new weekly format :) my 7 year old daughter is now hooked too :) she’s not remembered your name yet, but also looks forward to Monday night when “the guy with the bricks” releases a new episode! 😊 I’m not a bricky, nor in the building trade, but an admirer of all craftsman like your good self. So thanks for all your hard work so far! Me and my daughter look forward to many more Mondays on the sofa catching up with yourself and Drew. Much love from the West Midlands!
Hiya Chris! Thanks so much for watching the videos, really pleased you've been enjoying them ☺️ all the best, have a brilliant long weekend
Great work sir, I am 66 and watching you really makes me want to pick up the tools again. Back in the day the ole hands used to rub the finished brickwork with a cement bag and dry brush on reclaimed brickwork, have you ever tried it? It's a nice Finnish. You got my sub sir, keep them coming. 👏👏👏👌
Thanks so much for your kind words Nigel, really appreciate it 🙂 not used a bag to rub down the brickwork, only ever a bar, wire brush or a bit of timber. I'll give it a go! Thanks for subscribing to the channel and have a fantastic weekend
Great week
Great video all round …
Thanks very much Gary 😊
I laboured to brickies about fifty years ago and I remember one guy chiding his workmates when they spread a bed on the RSJ. He maintained that the steel took the place of the bed so no mortar should be used on it.
you are a joy to watch
Thanks so much Raymond 🙂
Nice...!👍
Thanks dazza
Excelente y muy hermoso trabajo felicidades 👌👌👌
Thanks very much mate 😊 hope you're well🤜🤛
Looks pukka that mate , nice job 👍not easy to gauge bricks like that , I always gauge down from the steel in that situation and mark it on the profile . It stops you getting high and putting a pistol cut in under the steel 😉.
Nothing you can do a about the bond above the blues it is what it is 👍
Thanks so much brother! It was a bit of a pain, but we just went for it and it all turned out very well😊 new video out later on today 😊
Everyones always fussed about using reclaimed brick above DPC, but never below. Would help the bricky out majorly if they did
You’re a good bricky mate.
Cheers brother, I try 😘
Looks good mate i would have used a rubber fanbelt to flush finish looks bettter on old stuff keep up the good work
Yea I sometimes use that flushing up method too before! Hope you're enjoying your weekend, new video out later on today 😊
That’s the kind of thing I say to the lads. Stop looking down at the brick like that 😂
😂😂😂 yea..I told drew a few times that day😂
Worth the hassle for the client. Looks mint.
Thanks mate appreciate it
Love the look of reclaims, but I would prefer to see the joints rubbed with a scrap wood pointer rather than a rounded with the modern jointer. Depends what the existing looks like I suppose. I aways use A142 when screeding to existing concrete you know it will move sooner or later. Get yourself a rounding over trowel for edging concrete, tidier finish to the ACO.
Good to see you using the tile setting trowel too. Your wrist and elbow will thank you later...
Third edit - awesome job well done to the two of you.
Haha love the updated commenting mate, appreciate your support and the tips you just gave us! I can't use my 13" anymore, too slow! I'm also pleased how the job turned out! New video today showing the final results 😊
Izzy the groundworker 😂 our job would be so much more fun if everyone else didn’t spoil it , those bricks looked a nightmare 😫.
Loving those spot boards , we have the stands and love them 👌🏼👌🏼🧱👍🏼
Ps thanks for the shout out 😍🤜🏽🤛🏽
This week I've been IzzyTheBricky, Izzy the scaffolder, joiner and groundworker again 😂 well impressed with the stands and boards!
Looks good. Love the mix of fun and knowledge in the video. Where do you work?
Thanks so much mate! Glad you're enjoying the videos 🙂 I work in the Derbyshire/Nottinghamshire area 🙂
⭐you remembered me lol, I tried that y food, banana was ok rest of it is horrible not for me. Keep up the great work
Even if you have 1 course above a lintle, you should put a tray in. If that elevation gets battered by wind and rain it could get through. Putting a tray in gives peace of mind.
Them rhino build tools look great too.
Thanks mate appreciate it😊
You need a tray when there is any exposed masonry above a lintel. Put thin bed of mortar on lintel to bed tray.
Great work as always boys... Izzy if you are going to put fancy overlays for days and times etc, make sure to spell Tuesday correctly !! ---> 06:27 🤣🤣🤣
Also when laying ACOs, covering the grill with masking tape or similar etc makes cleanup far easier after cementing them in place 🙂
😂😂😂 bloody ell, you can tell I dropped out of uni😂 and I wish I saw this comment earlier on this week, as I've just done the rest of them in the job and left the grills on😂 new video out today 😂
I See you've getting rid off that wrist breaking 12" trowel
Yea done with it for now nate😊
What I've done is chop a brick shorter here and there in the wall , that's hard to pick up visually and keeps the perps close
I've decided that any steel with a shelf plate is going to get galvanised from now on.
Seems silly putting these in with a bit of red oxide on it seeing as I'm ripping out rusted angles with the same treatment
Crazy ain't it, they paint doesn't really help too much in the long run!
@@IzzytheBricky yep, anything inside the building, no worries. Any fabricated stuff in the outer walls, defo galv
As someone new to the channel, it would be nice if you guys could do a video that explains the terminology.
To lose the half brick is there no way of reversing the bond start with a stretcher where that half brick is ?
Might work out the other end and become s perfect bond going up ?
All of the bond went crazy for about 4 courses before we got it right again 😂 hope your well brother!
Would you take on a double extension job in Buckinghamshire? If so pls get intouch
👍 I would have worked bricks from door and cut against furfix
Brilliant work as ever 😉👍( please go easy on the camera movement..whilst hand held..makes me seasick 😂) thanks Izzy lad 👍
Cheers mate appreciate it! All the best
Izzy what pattern trowel are you using please?
Dunno how you do all that and still go gym after! I only manage to go on days I have half a job on
Genuine question coz I'm not in the UK. Do you not need a vapour barrier between the brick veneer and the Knauf insulation ?? What stops water ingress ??
Hi mate, we don't have that here. All's our insulation is meant to be moisture resistant ☺️
Won't be long until Drew is shirtless again😃
God I hope not.!🙄
@@nigelsmith1198 damn man he looks great
@@timsmans517 I agree he's gorgeous 🤤
@@deluxe91 whatever rocks your boat.! 😊
Those bricks luck brilliant shame you couldn't of used white mortar
Thanks mate appreciate it! Very pleased with how the job look, but would have been great to use white cement like you said! New video out today
Have a look at a set of videos by Glenn Veness and see what he says and does about perps in line and bonding etc I think you will find it useful.
Personally always weather point these
What happened to the dampcourse
Do you not feel under pressure all the time with that music playing? 😂
Hi Izzy, do you use wall ties?
Hiya mate, yes we do. Every 450 high and 750 appart
Good Brickwork, but should not gimp it they didn't do that in the old days
Izzy where did you get that double step hop up please and thanks
I think it's just from Screw fix mate 😊
No dampcourse
Where are the metal ties to the (horribly badly built) block inner wall? Are there no building standards in England?
There SHOULD be a LARGE air space gap in-between the face of the insulation and the OUTER WALL inside the cavity ; this includes an air space gap in between the face of the insulation and the cavity-wall-tie drip point which is in the centre of the cavity.
Ask N.V.Q. BRICKWORK teachers for PROOF of this ! With the cavity-wall being bridged with insulation (insulation touching the outer walls), damp will travel from the outer wall through the bridging insulation to the inner wall !
Great presentation. No umm umm eer when speaking. .
Hi Izzy, been watching your videos for a while, great stuff mate. I’ve got a question for you.
I’m building a house at the moment, the bricklayers have just started. The architects have specified 90mm kingspan insulation in a 100mm cavity. The joints need to be taped on the insulation. The building inspector is saying it is imperative that they keep a clean residual cavity of 10mm between the insulation and the brickwork.
The bricklayers are saying it’s virtually impossible as they can’t clean the inside muck out as the insulation is in the way. I get their point. Do you have any tips for this? And how important is it really if some snot touches the insulation?
Keep up the good work
I would make the gap 20 mm and the blockwork needs to be clean and plumb or the insulation will cause problems, in my opinion a 10 mm gap is just not good enough and also if they spread properly there shouldn’t be any muck in the cavity and if there is and it touches the insulation I wouldn’t worry too much as it if foil insulation so there would be no damp ingress
Hiya mate, thanks for the support and watching the videos! What your Bricklayer is saying is very true, it's pretty much impossible to make sure NO compo touches the king span. That's why I don't we as Bricklayers avoid those jobs..cos they are a right pain 😂
It's not the end of the world mate, I wouldn't actually panic about it too much. This is why we install dpcs and things like that. Can't see it being an issue mate
9 inch per brick laid out by tape ...
Why not build in dpc at block work save all that grinding
Whats with the super hero music ?😂 be wearing a cape next time ,providing theres no rain .
Hahaha just found it fitting for the video 💪💪😉
A proper Bricky would point the back of the block work to nhbc standards
Cheers mate appreciate it
Generally I have noticed your mixes seem very wet
Yea I like my mortar extra creamy to work with
Not calling your work by any means, BUT! When using reclaimed bricks you should point with a trowel not a jointer, looks a lot better and it’s how it was always done, other than that great job
Thanks brother appreciate it! Y'know what, I usually do flush pointing (like you said) but I did a small sample and we much preferred the bar ☺️
Baby trowel
Perhaps someone should set up a gofund me page for Drew's bike.
The mixer looks in better condition 👍🤦🤣
😂😂😂 definitely
@@Paul-pb4wv 😂😂😂😂😅😅😅 omg crying
Thanks Izzy for another upload. May I be slightly off and suggest you ditch them liquid meals. You need to be packing more proper chuck then them baby meals. If you dont take the time to sit down and have a proper nutritional meal your gains will suffer.
Dont you just feel sorry for pen pushers ?, Job satisfaction of the highest level .
Never understood lifting as a hobby.
The block work finishing is not up to standard
Good job I didn't do it then 😉 hope you're enjoying your weekend brother ☺️
Drews.chain Is way too tight. U need 3 fingers worth of slack inbetween the swing arm and the bottom of the chain
Is there anyway we could talk Izzy? We’ve just started our RUclips channel, we’ve got a building company decent following on the socials but would like some advice on RUclips stuff 😊
Hiya mate! Drop me a message on IG and we can have a chat or a call 😊
That blockwork is dog rough.
Haha good job I didn't do it then 💪💪
first !
Eeey! New video out later on brother
This bricklayer gay or what
Great content Izzy, I like that you give credit to other tradesmen, Steve and Alex to mention 2, explanation of technical items takes viewing to another level, keep it up 👍👍
Thanks very much Chris! New video out later on today! Really pleased your enjoying the videos 😊
