    Tell you what pal. From a guy who’s got his own little firm himself. You come across hard working straight talking and you know your stuff. I have literally never commented on a single video or a strangers page before in my life. But after watching what you do and how you conduct your craft. I couldnt help but let you know It’s a nice change to see someone doing a brilliant job and to such a high standard. Cracking channel cracking walk throughs, well done mate I’m genuinely pleased for you I like seeing people do well who deserve it. Keep it up.

    You must be the only person to give away so much information, it’s a credit to you for sharing, I’m not a builder but in the past I’ve asked builders for help in doing certain things, but they were very cagey to say, as if I was going to take their business away. So well done to you for being honest and giving this information cheers

  • @bscott77
    @bscott77 3 года назад +14

    I can only see you getting more work from your honest straight forward approach. I can’t think of any other builder who would be this transparent. Taking your time to explain everything like this will of course help people who want to build their own, but they would have probably gone down this route anyway, not everyone is capable of this or wants to so can only see you getting flooded with requests from these people which is absolutely deserved. You are one of the fastest growing channels I’ve seen so ignore the keyboard warriors, your massive success will shut them up soon enough mate. Cheers again

    Top video, as always. Thanks for sharing all your knowledge.
    Rest assured your downlights ARE fire rated. The protection comes from the little ring that sits between the fitting and the ceiling. In the event of a fire, this expands to stop smoke from going up into the ceiling void. Most people don't realise this is what the 'fire rated' part of the fitting is. They see that it doesn't have a can and assume it's not fire rated.
    Keep up the good work, and I look forward to entering the raffle for the pod! 👍

    This is not a DIY project for one person. I hope no one tries it alone. It takes a team.

You straighten the walls with string before you nail them down”. That shed’s a bit wonky, but the garden office won’t be. Fantastic videos, thank you so much for your time.

I have never had the confidence before, and your series of videos have totally inspired me.It's something I've always wanted to do and had an interest in, and now I'm seriously planning everything to the ninth degree and getting this ready for a summer project. I have one question after watching tons of your videos - what do you recommend about the pitch? Firrings or building the back wall lower? I saw you do the back at 1975mm - but what about the front? Is that 2050mm to account for the 75mm drop? Then with a 160mm drop for space for a steel? I was going to use a sleeper - my room is only 2.5m x 4m. Thanks again, and keep on keepin' on.

One question, on one video you placed a vapour barrier on floor over the insulation and on another you didn't. Just wondered why. I didn't with mine but foil sealed all floor insulation, Have I made an error. I live in Ireland so get more rain than anyone. Just now a bit concerned I've made an error.
