    Maybe I’m overly critical but I think the older, two brick high metal vents (shown here) are better looking than the contemporary red plastic ones. Beautiful work as always! 👍👍👍

    simple but very effective mate! i always put polystyrene between existing and new steps if filling up with concrete just to keep any damp cold transferal to a minimum.

    Good job.... some thing to add you can save energy and volume of concrete if u fill it with bricks instead of this much concrete and at last few inches of concrete is sufficient before last brick laying on the top...

    While I love these videos, I have 2 concerns.
    1. Is it ok to cover 1/2 an air brick.
    2. Concerned that if the step is level 5he house is wonky. Look at the air brick holes.

    • @laro1002
      @laro1002 3 года назад +2

      Ref 1: Not really. You are supposed to leave at least 75mm from ground to air brick (assuming wooden suspended floor). That’s typically one brick height. So not good practice really.

    Well done, nice job sir. With regards to the air bricks, I see you have covered them over half of the way up, is this ok to do so and within your experience does the surface water not run back in through the air bricks and into the cavity? I'm asking as I have a similar situation.

    • @keithwebb658
      @keithwebb658 3 года назад

      Its unlikely that a house of this type has a modern cavity wall construction. The vent is to allow air into the void under the floor. Rainwater should run away from the house if the step has a slight fall on it.
      In modern houses, the wall cavity is sealed so that air passes through the vent into the underfloor void without entering the wall cavity.

    • @michaelmorris5288
