Victorian build: FLEMISH BOND- DECORATIVE ROOF FEATURES- WE HAVE DONE IT!

This is the job up to roof, scaffolding just taken down and all inside work is being done. Built in Flemish bond with original bricks in black mortar. In this final stage we are putting the roof, veluxes and tiles on and I'm building the gables.#bricklaying #victorianstyle #flemishbond #joinary #roofing

Fantastic Chris. If you disregarded the present colour of the bricks it looks absolutely original 👍👍

Yeah, the original bricks were more pinky coloured time has made them the colour they are . They will weather in though

Brilliant job Chris great wrk

Thanks for the heads up👍

[@Doug....]

I know it was 6 months ago Chris but been catching up on your vids. That is one beautiful extension built and every detail is spot on. Weren't the victorian builders good on detail. They never had lasers so i suppose the odd mini error here and there is understandable. Great job mate. 👍👍👍

Lovely old job

[@foundationgood123]

Thank you👍

[@grannyg8155]

looks well does that..How do u go about pricing a job like that? Are you supply and fix or do you work labour only on a price/day rate?

[@foundationgood123]

This job was labour only, I’ve always kept a day by day account of a job so for example I know roughly how long it takes to do footings, build up to DPC and how long it takes to build up etc, then I can tweak each job. Hope that helps!

[@isaacshenton9330]

AYYY finally, it was a bit hard in some spots but yeah, got it done didn't we, definitely mostly you guys though.

[@foundationgood123]

Yes we did Isaac👍

[@ericthekingthekingtheking4842]

Hi chris
How do you work out how long a build will take

[@foundationgood123]

I always keep a detailed diary of every job I do, so I have a reference to go by and I generally get it right when working out other jobs! Hope that helps..

[@liamwithey-zp8uo]

Roof looks a bit flat whats the pitch

[@plummetplum]

You still building chris. Miss your vids.

[@foundationgood123]

Yes, just finding the time…I’ve put some on TikTok though. I’m getting footage together and will be uploading soon. Thanks for the encouragement, it’s much appreciated 👍
