Great video mate. You got any jobs going? I've been a slater/tiler for 30 years but have always been on price working for a firm. Everything has to run at 100mph to earn decent money. I'd love to slow it all down to get more job satisfaction. Love watching your vids 👍
I have made a video of this. If you go on my channel you’ll see how this is done. I have recorded with one hand and bedded with the other so hopefully the video is clear. If you have any more questions please send me another comment.
@@akay4856 my professional trade is roofing so this will be what all of my videos will be on. Thankyou for taking notice in my video and my work quality. 😀
I always use a 3 sand 1 cement mix. I prefer to use ready made mixed sand. Has a small quantity of shard sand in it to make the cement stronger and firmer to work with. Also no plasticiser.
@@ffortezza2402 in builders merchant they might have bags of mixed sand which is a mixture of sharp and soft but if you can’t get hold of this then soft builders sand will be ok.
Not really it’s best to point it the day you do it. If you put a thin layer of cement over the verge when the frost finally hits the cement work it will just start flaking and cracking and look like a mess.
Enjoyed that and funnily enough, found it very relaxing.
Hi. everyone that has seen this please leave a like and comment. It will mean allot also I have 2 other videos but I am planning on doing more.
Thanks really helpful.

Thank you 😊
