The quality of these jobs are incredible. Shame I could never afford it! Get what you pay for with you guys.
Ragieza problem is most people want a cheap job but want quality too.
But unfortunately this doesn’t happen. Corners will be cut
Easy if you have plenty of cash .
Greg’s a real legend.
He really is David, thanks for watching 👍
Holy sh*t, I've never seen a tiler work like this before! That's what you call quality craftsmanship!
That was awesome. Great seeing intelligent blokes who really know what they’re doing and take their time doing it right.
I’m sure I’d struggle to find guys like that round my way
You have good tradesmen working for you who are conscientious of their work, again great video cheers
Great bunch of lads and top notch work from them, we're very lucky! Have a great weekend Blue Boy 👍
So true I quit because my boss had shocking standards
If Carlsberg did building sites you’d have Robin Clevitt for the chippy, Rob Songer the for the bricking and A&E construction on the ground. These boys are streets ahead in their field. 👌🏼
Nice one Marty!!!!!
Amazing technical skill of these artisan.Beautiful job.
Thanks Maria, have a great weekend! 👍
I like the lanscape jobs, greetings from Mexico 🇲🇽✌🏻
Fantastic workmanship, no cutting corners and the tiler is meticulous too. Nice to see great builders at work. Awesome!
That vibration tool is amazing! I had many a struggle getting those big tiles to sit flat in the past!
Hi chunkymonkey55555,
It definitely is an awesome bit of kit!
Thanks for watching.
All the best, John 😊
You can tell that when you love what you do you'll always do it amazingly just like those guys
There actually probably just above a standard range of tradesman lol 😂
Shows what desk jockeys know about quality work
now that was a nice bit of tiling well done
Thanks for watching bud, have an awesome xmas! 😎👍

Fantastic work lads. Glad to see there are still tradesmen out there who take pride in their work. It's certainly a rarity.
Far too many chancers in the game these days.
The tiling work was spot on!
Hi Imran thanks for your kind words Greg is an true craftsman, it’s a pleasure working with him. Thanks for watching have a awesome weekend all the best Tony 👍

You huys break the stereotypes of builders. You're Artisans.
Hi John thanks for your kind words we just love what we do thanks for watching all the best Tony 👍
Congratulations guys I Never thought that proper professionals like yourselves ever existed, well not in my area of the UK, you make the guy who laid my patio recently look like a complete amateur, I feel completely cheated
I have never seen this done outside before I always done it traditional way looks good and interesting 🤔
Real good honest workers 👍
Thanks John all the best Tony 👍 thanks for watching have a awesome weekend
Well done gentlemen
Hi SS Santiago thanks much appreciated all the best Tony 👍
I currently laying a 280sq meter patio at my house and wish it his guy was doing it now 😂
The skills and professionalism on this channel is out of the very top drawer - can’t get enough of this. Great work 👍
Thanks Richard, this means a lot 😊👍
Fantastic work by the tiler👏👏
Would have liked to see a bit of dust suppression when cutting the brick pavers
Hi denty32,
We would normally wherever possible, however, as they were blue pavers we wouldn't of been able to lay them wet. So unfortunately they had to be dry cut.
Thanks for watching.
All the best, John 😊
Health and safety man at its finest😂
Don't know how I came across this video, but I enjoyed it
Im gonna be doing my own porcelain this summer and this is most definitely the method I want to use rather than the mortar bed system,can you guide me as to where to buy the materials ,adhesives, matting and tools etc.Really glad I found this vid,you guys are a rare breed these days,well done .
You guys are professional of all professionals! My 16th video of this build series and I’m loving every bit of it , loved listening and watching the tiler explain everything that he does , you should come to Kent and show some of the trades on my site how to do things properly , definitely need the tiler to come over and do all the tilling because today I knocked off 3 bathrooms of tiles because they were horribly done 😅, well done boys keep up the beautiful work

great tiling jobs !
Lovely job on paving and tiling 👌
Thanks 👍
Nice work, love a good paving job!
Quality work 👌
Thank you 🙌
great work lads
Superb work - great to see such attention to detail! I know that I might get shot down here, but it would be worth getting a water pump kit for that Hilti, saves mess, reduces complaints from customers (and neighbours) and protects you and your workers too.
Hi videogalore,
Glad you enjoyed the video.
We do have the water pump kit installed on the Hilti. However, laying wet blues is a bit of a nightmare, hence why in this instance we didn't use it.
Thanks for watching.
All the best, John 😊
Quality work!!!
First class
Great tile work.
Thanks Bodge - Greg's a top bloke and fantastic tiler. Definitely worth checking out his instagram ( @gn_tilingltd ) ... have a great weekend 👍
Excellent quality work be proud of and I very appreciated it. One day soon I hope I may seek your services. Takecare
Thanks for watching Abdul, take care 😊👍
Enjoyable. Last time in Leamington Spa was 8th September, 2018
Been do tile marble and granite stone work old stone for 40 years retired now old school 👍 Like way you concrete the areas nice and flat like way you put Dura base matt down that right way laying the tiles👍but you should put reinforcing bar or mesh expansion joints in concrete and you should let the concrete go off for a week and a half give it time for movement do nice work look really good all the best 👍 👍
Nice !!
Hi Allah thanks much appreciated all the best Tony 👍
Wow, this must be a £30k patio. Amazing work.
Quality
Thanks for watching David 👍
I wish you guys were up North!
Super job, looks immaculate. What diamond blade specifically does Greg the tiler use on his grinder? Cheers, great job again.
Hi Rich, just spoke to Greg - it's a new blade he's using. It's a Premtool Turi 25 Turbo Blade. Take care and have a great weekend 👍
@@BuildWithAE Thanks very much mate. Really appreciate it. Keep up the good work. Have a good weekend 👍
Greg is a real pro👍
I have to ask if you never puts ironnet in the bottom of the concrete?
We normally do in Denmark
Hi 1963Poul,
Glad you enjoyed the video.
We use steel mesh whenever it is required. If this area was to be used for heavier foot traffic, then it would of been an option. But in this instance it wasn't required.
I hope this helps.
All the best, John 😊
Awesome work, dread to think about what it cost but people have different budgets
Quality job 👏
Many thanks Jay! 👍
Is the yellow matting the outside equivalent to ditra matting. Nice to see porcelain being laid properly. He's back battered his tile so don't really need to vibe it.
"it's not a magic wand" oh, I think you'll find it is 😉
I have a Belle mixer, and wheel barrow, and 2 other brands, Makita+Stihl..
Great video.
That’s where my refs sofa cushion went 😂great video keep up the good work 👍🏻
Absolutely fantastic tiler! What brand of grinder disc was he using? The cuts were super clean!
Hay Adam. Thanks for the compliment. I was using a prem tool blade that day. I do vary the blades I use thow. Depends on the tile.
Have a great evening and thanks for watching
Greg
Didn't know that Chris Hemsworth did tiling on the side LOL.
That’s not Chris Hemsworth, that’s Gregg, come on you should know that by now if you’ve watched enough of their videos. His work is superb - puts a lot of effort in.
@@CEO786 someone doesn't understand humor, shame..
@@aixsa3877 I had to ask my missus who Chris Hemsworth was 😂
He did my bathroom
I think I’ve asked in a previous video,is there any chance we could get a back story of how it all started and how you guys came together? Cheers lads.
I'm so invested in this, when is the next episode out? Great work by the way.
Hi Ryan thanks for your kind words, very soon, thanks for watching all the best Tony 👍
What a beautiful house already, the new addition adds a modern touch. Stunning. How long have you been working on it so far ?
Hi Robert,
Glad you're enjoying the build. We have been on this for about 12 months in total. We are much further ahead than what you are currently seeing, but you will get to see the finished product soon.
Thanks for watching.
All the best, John 😊
Love these videos so thanks for that. Question re the yellow matting, how is that fixed down? and also what is the reason for the long wait (3-4 weeks) on the new laid concrete?
Proud to see proper tradesmen.
The job is beautiful ! Question ? Is it slippery when is wet ? Thanks
Hi Alex no it’s and outdoor no slip tile
A question for Greg - just wondered why he did'nt use 20mm tiles. Also I assume the matting whet on a concrete base. Thanks appreciate the feedback, as I have a job to do myself being new to exterior tiling.
Woww what an amazing work ❕❕I got my patio done yesterday they didn’t do anything like this I’m really disappointed with the result 💔
Hi Daro Thanks for your kind words all the best Tony 👍
I see the weep hole drainage pipe has been boxed in. Do you just lay the tile on top then?
Very good looking job. Did you make the tiles fall in one direction or did you use a cross fall. If you had a cross fall would that not make some of the edges of the tiles stick up?
Greg is quite a handsome man
Wow this is great work . I am a tiler and this is some of the best work i have scene. Just a question, how come the path down the side of the house was not centred was the job set out to run from the patio thanks Neil
Hi Neil They we’re set from inside of the house thanks for watching all the best Tony have a awesome weekend
Hi Neil
If you watch the previous video we explained the set up for this job. Its all based from what we did inside the kitchen area. All the joints run perfectly threw from inside to out.
When the doors and sliders are opened it looks and feels like one big room then with no step in the grout lines.
A real head ache to set up and especially down the narrow section but worth it
Thanks
Greg
Lovely job , forget the A team and hire the A&E team 👌🏼🧱👍🏼
We love it when a plan comes together 😉👍
Build With A&E 😂😉🧱👍🏽
Can you tell what is the name of the yellow matting? Unbelievable professionalism and skill
Hi Ian,
It's called CI matting, which is a de-coupling membrane. It prevents any movement in the substrate transfering to the tiles.
Hope this helps.
All the best, John 😊
Thank you
What grout is used here? What grout is best for a porcelain patio? Great work by the way.
Top quality job.... not sure about the angle grinder with no guard
John what a cracking job as always, and Greg what a lad them tiles are spot on 👌🏻 one question John why does the concrete need to be left for that long are the tiles heavy or something? but great job all round lads 💪🏻👌🏻
Hi Smidgey88,
Glad you enjoyed the video 😁
The tiles we are using are called Original Style Victorian Tiles, and as with many high end floor finishings, the base needs to be free of moisture to prevent delamination.
We always ensure we follow manufacturers guidelines to the letter 👌🏻
Hope this helps.
All the best, John 😊
Build With A&E thanks for the reply John can’t wait to see the next stage finished 👍🏻
I've not seen the use of matting outside before. Is that a on thing?
What sub base do you recommend for outdoor tiles ? Cheers
Nice job although don’t you want a fall for water ? Making them perfectly Level for what reason ?
What’s the tile mate on ? Bed or concrete or can you concrete theses tiles straight on to MOT hard core ? Thanks great job
Fantastic job - what brand of tile have you used?
Hi MegaRichardHoward,
Glad you enjoyed the video.
The tiles are by Evolution Stone, imported from Italy by a company called Concept Tiles.
They really are an awesome tile!
Hope this helps.
All the best, John 😊
Guys, it’s really frustrating watching your guys exceptional work as it makes me realise how much we got mugged off by our traders. One thing they’re all good at no doubt without question is excuses! They have enough of thoughs in their empty tool boxes!! Lol
Curious on why you need to leave the concrete cure for four weeks ? What effect does the victorian tiles have on 48 hour cured concrete
For the paved walkway did you use a mortar under the bricks?
Hi.
What pavers are they? Are they suitable for a driveway?
Great job by the way
Thanks
Amazing work, how do you make sure the tiles drain off to the drainage areas when using this method?
Only asking as I’m a landscaper and this method looks more secure than mortar but I’d need to make sure the run off is correct. Thanks, matt
I’m also interested in this as well, are the tiles laid level or a particular fall to the aco slot or perhaps away from the house ?
Would appreciate the guidance.
Your guys workmanship is second to none. Watched a lot your videos.
Hi guys great work but I’ve got 2 questions. Why is the patio and especially the manhole higher than the windowsill? And would you recommend to use the vibration tool on marble tiles with veins in them?
Hi Marcel they line through with the patio detail that has been given to us by Apropos you have to make sure the drain weep holes are channeled with capping which we have done, manholes are correct levels as for marble vein tile it’s try it and see but speak to the company who supplied the tiles all the best Tony 👍
Hey, guys love the video. I'm upgrading my garden. I'm wanting to put porcelain tiles down, but the contractor reckons they too are they slippy and then recommended an Indian sandstone paver instead, any thoughts? I personally like the more modern look of porcelain. Would love to hear your thoughts if you have time. Thanks. Perry
Hi Perry,
Glad to hear that you enjoyed the video.
The tiles we put down are meant specifically for external use. Although they are the same design as the internal tile, they have a rougher texture to them, which means they aren't slippy when wet.
If you are interested, the tiles in this video are from a company called Concept Tiles. They do a huge range, so it's worth a look.
Hope this helps.
All the best, John 😊
What grinder are you using to cut the porcelain? Dont you need to use a bench saw?
Read comments etc but can’t find any info on the yellow green matting and why it’s used externally etc? Never seen anyone vid use this technique.
Fantastic job. Which ratio did you use for the concrete slabs ? Thanks
