This is a good book. Does provide a step by step introduction to how to build things ruclips.net/user/postUgkxhgbP-6hUnXu_QRaoHgLztgsI0YF3HqR0 , also does offer some steps. Includes pictures to give you ideas for layouts and such. If you are looking for a guide, this is not exactly what you want. But if you are trying to familiarize yourself with the way that pole barn building and other out buildings, are made, then this will work just as you need it to. A few things in this book are a barn (of course), detached garage, storage building, and coops.
This is far better than watching television, wonderful stuff.
nice to see people finally doing something about these horrible plastic carbuncles stuck to the back of their houses, barely know anyone who actually enjoys sitting in their conservatory, they are usually just dumping grounds for storage boxes and unused home gym equipment
Mine currently has a treadmill a rower and my golf clubs 😂
Have you been looking in my conservatory?? 😅
This is the second house I’ve bought with a conservatory and they’re good places to store your junk. This latest one had a radiator plumbed in, which, in winter is as much use as Anne Frank’s drum kit. The summer months are nice though, if you like sitting somewhere hotter than Death Valley.
Well isn’t the same going to happen to this tiny room she asked him to build?
Always a pleasure to watch Sam and his team showing their many skills. Sam always explains what he is doing and why he is doing it and still manages to get on with the job at the same time. Robin Clevett, please take note.
Thanks Cliff
Nice to see someone properly lead flashing, and not using the adhesive flashing.
In under budget, in time, meet customer expectations. The perfect job.
Abe and Sam
Lead pencils do not contain any lead even back in the day they were not lead. The “lead” is a mixture of graphite and clay; the more graphite, the softer and darker the point.
Thank you Roger!
Nice job, I've done a few of these , for the lead flashing try stainless Steel spring clips to hold the lead in , there great .I used to use lead wedges, now always something new on the market, lead mate silicone 👍, makes life easy. Definitely prefer the fibreglass system for the roof, thanks, I enjoyed the video 📹 👍.
I really enjoyed watching this. It looks lovely. Thank you.
brilliant job, looks really pukka, enjoyed seeing descent workmanship. Nice 👍🏻
Always made to look straight forward when it’s not. Pleasure to watch, top job chaps
Building looks so simple with the right knowledge 😅
Amazing job, excellent workmanship. Wish I could get someone like you to do my house extension.
Awesome workmanship....and, no Hilti in sight!
Beautiful work Richard.
Excellent looking job and great craftsmanship by all involved.
Slick work for essentially a small team job good work
This guy and his wife ? Do an amazing job , but I do wish he would use a face mask bless him . COPD is no joke if in later life it gets to you , as a retired electrical contractor I can with bitter experience say don’t assume it won’t affect me . Ps I’m only concerned for fellow tradesmen / women who I have the greatest respect for . Best wishes and kind regards 😀👍👍👍
Fantastic project! Very interesting to watch
What a lovely job, looks fantastic 👍
Where the corner caps on the fascia left up higher as it appears at 15.57 on the video because there are tilting filets along the sides? Great work by both Sam and Jen I hope we get to see more of them. 👍👍
Better than Eurovision
And not a tranny in sight. Unless a radio counts. 😁
Great Job and great team doing it 👍
Thank you
Nice design and nicely executed 👍
Looks fantastic great job
Lovely job!
Enjoyed watching that, very interesting 👍🏽
Great job and well presented. Thanks.
Thanq for the video
It would be great if work got done this fast & efficient in real life.
Nice work Sam & Jen. 🙌🏻
Thank you Dan
Nice job looks great
Watched the entire video. Impressive work skills. Sorry to say our construction here in US cou,d not keep up. Thank you
Really tidy job mate. From a builder in New Zealand
Quality Work 👏
Brilliant job & efficient.
Excellent work *****👍
Good design and end project looks great. My only worry would be if the room in the middle (kitchen) is now a bit too dark but then a covered patio is great for the UK.
Conservatories were built mostly without planning or building regs so you never know what you have. That one looks to be nice and solid though.
Yes they dug down and verified a one metre foundation.
Really nice Job
Great job
Really nice job guys.
Thank you
Lovely job that.
Lovely 👏👏
I know the rest of the windows in the house are white, but it makes a change seeing someone use it instead of the grey everyone uses these days. Sure grey is due to go out of fashion sometime soon.
Great channel surely there should be a lead tray where the conservatory was to stop water penetration
The door opening has not been changed so the existing cavity tray does what it always did.
Very nice.
Looks like he glazed the korniche lantern bottom of gasket first then leaning in to top. You can see it unit wobble and that's how you bust the glass in the big ones. You do the opposite, lean the top of glass in to frame first and lower the bottom of the unit to the frame rail and they go in lovely.
Did he break the glass? I missed that
Point is, he forced the unit to get it to lie flat. Best to read the glazing instructions. It's counterintuitive.
@@Carl-yu6uw Don't be like Carl. He's a know-it-all.
@@Thespecialone1970 Reading the manual is beyond u SpOT? Big man calling names after a drink?
Great job.
In the UK if a conservatory was 2 metres from a border and could not be seen from a public highway and it had a fully translucent roof it was exempt from planning regulations and building regulations.
So to change those specifications would require both planning and building consent.
Looks really good how much would something like this cost ?
Magic
On budget and time. Said no defence contractor. Ever.
Nice job. I was trying to see what model 18volt makita drill he used to drill the bricks for the treaded bar? Im going to buy one, 2 models available here in Ireland 🇮🇪
This is awsome!
Congratulations!!!
By the way, how much total cost of the project?
Conservatories are one of the most daft inventions in the world if expected to be another living space/room for the house. Too cold in winter and too hot in summer! They are just glorified greenhouses!
Sorry can't resist saying there isn't lead in pencils.
Also from using resing fixings in an industrial applications we cut slots in them perpendicular to the thread to give them a bit more purchase when you tighten them up. We use spring washers too?
Very nice
Laying in bed watching at 7:30am, jumped out of bed thinking the bin men are early .....🤦🏻
When you wedged the lead flashing in, did you then mortar or sealant the cut that you had made with the grinder? Please describe.
Brilliant video. Can we have more please? What did you use to fill in where the lead went into the mortar course?
It was re pointed with sand and cement at a ratio of 4 parts sand 1 part cement
Quality work
Fs mate a thought u were micheal beale the glasgow rangers manager there spitting image of our mickey boy 🤣
Looks great, what would something like this cost as I’m thinking of transforming my old conservatory like this
It depends on what you need to do to create the final construction. Either way the additional value gained on the house normally covers a lot of the outlay. We spent about 30k on a small modern garden room about five years ago but the house value has already increased by an additional 50k due to the improvements so the cost was actually minus 20k.
That fascia is not going anywhere ever !
great job. Do you need building regs for that job?
I would presume so, its attached to the house
Yes.
2:25 'oh god' 😂
THIS IS A QUALITY JOB - did it require planning?
What are you using to cut the brick work?
Did you need to notify the building regs?
Mate, can you please upload the footage of your face when you first realised the ledger/wallplate was in the wrong place 🤣🤣
You can bleep the audio were necessary
If you want this to run in line with building control then foundations need to be checked...if its 1m that still needs to be approved by building control..
Also engineer needed to size timber and qualify structure.
U values need to be calculated
Im all for using existing conservatory footings etc but ive demolished to many to know this project was either lucky with footing depth if approved by bc, usually the conservatory footing is small and won't work for what is an extension.
Sorry to play devils advocate but this process whilst nice to watch and great builder, is very under the radar ,
Looks amazing. We have a 90's lean to conservatory on our house and are desperately hoping to convert or replace it with something like this. Question... does converting a conservatory to a 'room' affect your council tax band?
It’s the number of bedrooms.
I'm surprised there are no cavity trays put in above the new roof
Would building control need to poke their noses in on a project like this? To verify the assumed 1m strip foundation for example? Just asking in case I do this type of project on my own house. Also with the timber beams - crown side up?
Yes unless you want to risk a potential buyer accepting an indemnity policy. I pulled out of a house because, since building control hadn’t ‘poked their nose into’ the conservatory, I had no proof the foundations were adequate.
You local to basingstoke hampshire? need a similar job doing
Im thinking of doing something similar. I am assuming you'd need planning and building control.
I am intrigued to find out how you would know foundationsxare 1m deep.
Depends where you live!
Dig a hole down the side of the foundation. Should need a building notice. For most, this would be classed as permitted development so wouldn't need planning permission.
@@28joestella How about if you live in a dive of an area?
@@jasonantigua6825 you'd need a building notice anywhere in GB. Planning will vary.
@@28joestella but you would need buildings regs approval and they would want to check the foundations.
How do you know it is safe to build a room once you have taken down the windows does the council not need to see what's under the floor to see if it's ok to work on
Sometimes they need to see a trial dig but a lot of this is done on building licence so there are no drawings
How much would a project like this cost? Roughly?
What was cost?
How much did that Conversion cost?
Does the roof have a slight fall or is it dead flat?
yes it has a slight fall to get the rain water into the guttering
Nooicr!
hilti hammer fixings far easier than chemicals and just as strong - cracking build
Why didn't you tooth the brick work for the piers, is it just easier and faster or do you need an expansion gap ?
what does toothing out gain?
It is much safer to have a straight joint where new meets existing as the extra load on the exiting foundation will cause slight settlement and it is best to allow that settlement to occur separate from the main building.
@@SkillBuilder I'm not a brick layer that's why I asked.
@@johncranna Thanks for taking the time to answer my question, much appreciated.
Was the lead oiled?..... as this important step seemed to be missing from the video.
We will do another video on patination oil.
I assume a conversion like this would need passing by planning first?
not very likely because the footprint is the same and it falls well withing permitted development
just Building Regs approval.
How much would that cost
Why are you not installing a lead tray? especially as you’ve knocked through to the house
The knock through was simply the old doors. No need for a cavity tray.
What was the cost?
I am curious to know what sort of budget is required for this i am considering having it done has well
Hi Ian you wouldn't get much change out of £20k if that's helpful regards Sam
@@SJWardBuilders thanks Sam it's a starting point to consider as every job is going to be different
No weep vents over your lintel tut tut. 🤣
Where do you think the weep vents should be? I have not clear and what you are thinking
@@SkillBuilder just a joke as they really don't do anything but they are supposed to go in the course laid onto your lintel. They are supposed to remove any moisture that condenses onto the lintel, really a big waste of time except for box tickers who's job is to go round looking for them.
Nicely done but not sure I see the point given expense and space gained. Why not push out the entire back part of the house, square it off and have all that extra internal space ?
Because that is not what the customer wanted
@@SkillBuilder ah..I thought it was your house
What a beautiful build that was , it looked superb at the end , really enjoyed the attention to detail .
A conservatory with a 1 m deep foundation now that is rare indeed 👌🏼🧱👋🏽
My client had detailed photos of every stage of the conservatory build from 20 years ago! It was built by a really good bricky from my area that is well known for his over engineering! Thank you for your kind comments!
No insulation in the roof?
I was thinking that, then I wondered why it would be needed, it's effectively an outdoor roof.......not sure though
I thought that and commented on here, but later realised the ply board covered the outside area rather than the garden Room.
Darren
There is no point in insulating the roof outdoors unless you want to keep the heat out in the summer
10:58 I think that threaded bar's spinning mate
It is resin anchored, you must always spin a resin anchor, then leave it to set.
@@SkillBuilder correct, but the video at the timestamp shows it spinning while it's being fastened.
Did you get planning permission and building regs approval for the works? Joining a rear extension to the side garage wouldn't be permitted development. 😬
yes
Inches??
I they were for decoration on the back of your tape measure.
I would use code 4 lead not code 3 there 😖
do you need planning permission to do this job? I mean convert a conservatory into a proper room. thanks
you can usually do it under permitted development and, if you keep the door and don't heat it you don't need building regs. A lot of people add the heating later which means it should go for building regs approval but that is not often done.
a clock in the garden??
It’s for the builders! To make sure they don’t miss any tea breaks!
Who would ever have believed a conservatory would devalue a house.
Well, unless your conservatory is in a state, it's just a fallacy put about by conservatory converters to sell their work.
