This guys the real deal… Sheer bloody poetry in motion… Doesn’t get any better than this. Top tradesmen & craftsmen like Charlie are worth every penny they get… It’s tragic that there isn’t enough young blood coming through the trades anymore. For the last 30 years they’ve all done Mickey Mouse degrees at Uni & ponced around with gap years etc. Fir decades this Country has not invested in real apprenticeships for Brickues, Splasterers, stone masons, fabricators, welders , engineers etc . Now it’s coming back to bite em in the jacksie… cuz there’s a shortage of skilled workers nowadays. The Government should’ve put in place training programs & subsidised apprenticeship wages with top ups for the learners & tax incentives for employers training the young bloods also. It would’ve made more sense than paying them untrained & on the dole.. or as unemployed overqualified wannabe lawyers etc from Uni who still can’t get work. Anyway. My rants over. Charlie’s work ethic is astonishing & my & his team are a credit to him & themselves. I thank you Charlie… Great content..
Is there any way to know for sure that your bed joints don’t have air pockets? I’m working on an old building and I can regularly see where the furrows never filled in.
I'm curious as to why you switch between pick and dip and traditional? Is there some less desirable bricks or conditions for pick and dip exc..? Quality work as always.
He does like to switch it up I know sometimes he changes depending what height he is at he also switches from perping the brick on the wall on the lower courses and perping the brick in his hand on the higher ones it can also depend on the weather and type of brick
Always mustard FairPlay to you my friend been laying 28 years watching since the start and picked up loads of tips , you will always get plonkers but like I say north east south west every bricky knows Charlie 😉👍
Forgive me if this is a daft question....whats the meaning behind dry brick or is just the obvious, the packs didn't get soaked by our wonderful weather
There's a few gobshites on insta who think they gonna take Charlie's crown at super trowel who can put numbers down but loose alot of points on quality I've been on trowel 28 years and worked with all sorts I can tell he's a consistent money maker whatever the lift conditions etc Charlie is not necessarily the best rob songer type brickie but new build estate house brickwork is bis market and he does it well
Yes, thats as good as it gets But I feel your using more effort for less work in return somehow. Messing with the bed too much and it was a little thin in places. I like it when You chuck them in and use the level on each course to line them up perfect after. Seems more efficient and better. Each day is different depending how You feel though a good method to teach your apprentices aswell "Traditional."
Last building site i was on 2 big English lads cornered me in a trench and one was telling the other one to kiss me. Jubilee Line extension 1996 i think it was.
You make bricklayers around the world proud with those full joints. Making sure you have a nice, long lasting, strong, solid, full, wall. Much prefer this of all the techniques you use.
How would you feel about you allowing someone thats had a bad accident cant lay anymore to come for a week and try as am wanting to build a wall at partners mums house you wouldnt need to pay wage just to get my hand in again would be good for your page a think

Чарли, то, что ты делаешь это реально вдохновляет, ты красавчик, продолжай!

I was thinking exactly the same thing
If you know. You know
He does like to switch it up I know sometimes he changes depending what height he is at he also switches from perping the brick on the wall on the lower courses and perping the brick in his hand on the higher ones it can also depend on the weather and type of brick
Perk from the back vs perk from the front. What’s your reasons why
Makes a big difference when the bricks are dry. Good video Charlie.
How come you perped the front and top of some bricks and top back and front on others?
Cheers legend
Always mustard FairPlay to you my friend been laying 28 years watching since the start and picked up loads of tips , you will always get plonkers but like I say north east south west every bricky knows Charlie 😉👍

People are gonna shit themselves when they see ur better at traditional than them and pick and dip 😂 top bloke quality work as always

Must be nice working with good mud. Here in Canada no one knows how to mix. We use shit all the time unfortunately.
Hey Charlie why did they have you lay 4 courses of blocks before starting brick looks like it's fairly flat 😊
It's all below ground he's just getting to the Airbrick course ,. Basically non of it is seen so why waste bricks.
Lovely jubilee, I watch every one of your videos, just noticed how my subs you had reached, Brilliant.
If I win the lottery he be building my new house definitely 👍👍👍
I’d sooner he built a whacking big wall on the Kent coast to keep the rubbish out !
@@Bob-tg8dz you can always go around over or under any wall ….
Would pay to see Charlie run rings around the traditional bricky
Proper dark that mix
Why's don't you make more videos ?
Nice looking brick, seem very square & true but dry as you nans.....................
Nervous as a nun in a cucumber patch
Chuff
It's a bit like watching the formation of a stalagmite
Your best film yet, the light is great and you are at the top of your game, great to watch.
Are those bricks what we used to call red rubbers
Another day in the books.
Nice work fella.
New trowel?
One brick on top of another, repeat…

What happend to short trowel pick and dip charlie anyway?😂

Just saw cut bank guess it wasn't flat lol
Are you at peak Charlie ?
I’m no bricklayer but why only one glove ?
To save the skin on brick hand , trowel hand is holding his trowel so not getting sanded down 😉
Nice work
More like this 👍
He’s using a new trowel
I just wish our suppliers could keep the sand dry!!!!!!!!
Last building site i was on 2 big English lads cornered me in a trench and one was telling the other one to kiss me. Jubilee Line extension 1996 i think it was.
