Hi Izzy Really enjoying the video from a retired Brickie's point of view, thought i was not imagining it that you are ambidextrous, fair play to you keep them coming and rule No 1 protect your back at all times.
In my youth, brickies and labourers used to cut hand guards out of old Lorry Inner Tubes. Finger holes at the ends. I used to unload railway wagons for pocket money, when I was twelve. Popular pocket money job moving LBC brick wagon, loads building local bungalow estates for Londoners retiring to the coast.
Another cracking Video with a very positive attitude and some banging tunes. Lovely work and a great team work. Expensive repair for that telehandler. Thanks for the video Izzy
Last year me and a mate built a lovely boundary wall on a mansion near Woking we had to build some bat boxes in the peirs , I bought some of those lego men and put them inside two guys sitting at a table
Bit of a tip from an old timer guys spread your bed before you put the line up, used to hate timber framed houses if it wasn’t erected properly the cavity either closed up or else widened beyond the fire stop making it pretty useless, great post guys
Great vlog Izzy, loved the country music theme. I didn’t know (but I’m not a builder or had a new build in the country) about bird/bee or Bat boxes! Should get their own bricks and mortar and pay taxes (lol). Keep it up staying positive and stay well.
hey Izzy love watching your videos mate been watching you for about 5 months now I'm self employed myself but there's just no work on at the moment im a bricklayer/builder/groundsmen but mostly bricklaying and a few years now when i was building conservatories for swad windows i got called to this job to help out I fitted the windows to a farm house you did an extensions for it was in Derbyshire im from there myself
@crazy-scope-9635 hiyaaa mate hope your well! Are you on about the barn conversion in Ashbourne? Dogtooth brickwork everywhere. It's set back off the road un a longish drive
@ just remember to add 20mm +/- from where you start gauging from. Allows the ties to sit slightly higher then your brickwork so they have a outward fall. 👍🏼
All looking good there Izzy. You mentioned before that 'ready mix' takes a good while to go off... Tell me, how many courses can you lay in one go, without fear of the work sagging under it's own weight? Cheers young man.
Just wondering are the scaffolders not able to drop the 2 boards you are working on down a foot or 2 so you're not nose bleeding every lift seems like a nightmare
Only naive or arrogant brains believe it wont happen to them. He explained the economic pressures of poor access, then guided us through his risk assessment and minimizing that by using 1 arm, and taking his time. In my 31 years of laying, its stressed out gangers that smell of alcohol that are the greatest cause of accidents. In isolated circumstances like this...take...your...time. 👍
Only time wearing hard hat was on site doing roofs kept banging me head on poles cos of the extra inch from hard hat, just got a bump cap and no one said anything after not much can fall on your head when your doing a roof

Greeting from Kentucky. Absolutely brilliant skills. Scaffolders were not on their game. A little , “jiggery, pokery and reachery” oughta do it.
Those bricks are amazing. 2 weeks for a pair of gloves!! My god they must reek!!
Great work again mate
Great work Izzy (as always) 👌👍
When spreading your bed up high especially when there's two of you spread the bed first then put the line up
Nice work lad’s 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴

I like the bit where you nearly walked off
I think it’s based off the last video but definitely click bait
Great video bud really enjoyed it.
@12:13 keep going,a bit more experience you'll get it 😜
That was a bit like watching me lay bricks 😂

Hope that tile vent at 7:32 gets sorted out Izzy 😂
Great video!
How do the cavity’s get checked and signed off if u have the fascia etc already on?those bird boxes are for rendered builds
Great work

@@IzzytheBricky yeah that's the one mate really nice view when you was up there
Izzy what another good video like the bird brick something to tweet about all of you do a good job see you in the next one simon
Make a gauge stick, mark up all your ties, bang them in and fold them up before you start. Speeds you up and makes forgetting them a thing of the past
Nice tip there mate appreciate it!
@ just remember to add 20mm +/- from where you start gauging from. Allows the ties to sit slightly higher then your brickwork so they have a outward fall. 👍🏼
Nice job fella looks good. Shame the roofers didn't take much pride in their work, that verge looks terrible!!!
Izzy izzy izzy. I've always liked your content. As a bricky. Please perp the whole header.
Need help with first private job What would u charge for 5 meter hallow block work 2 meters on radius and fill with concrete ?
Hi Izzy the bricky can you do a privet job base in Sheffield to take the chimney stack and re tile or maybe repair it with lime let me know thanks
All looking good there Izzy. You mentioned before that 'ready mix' takes a good while to go off... Tell me, how many courses can you lay in one go, without fear of the work sagging under it's own weight? Cheers young man.
Excellent as always. What happens to the 20mm gap below soffit if the building doesn’t settle? Surely bees will get in & save you fitting bee box 😂
Do you prefer that trowel to the tile setter trowels you have used in past videos?
Just wondering are the scaffolders not able to drop the 2 boards you are working on down a foot or 2 so you're not nose bleeding every lift seems like a nightmare
Scaffold left short. What happens if you fall when reaching across to lay. You are your own worst enemy. We all think it won't happen to us.

For the first time I am shocked with Izzy...your going faster but your perp joints look sparce...only a sliver on the front .....spiders heaven ???
It’s that Daz the plasterer in the back ground I see
The scaffold on a timber frame house is only for the roofers. Why has it never been changed for the bricklayers I will never know.
Fill you’re perps! No excuse
What happened to drew
Quality over quantity remember mate! Don’t just throw them in with half filled perps that’s someone’s house
Being a roofer by trade… what the fuck did them roofer do to then verges? Slingshot and hand pointing it seems 😂
Why do I want to eat the compo like ice cream?
😂
i hate to see anybody working under scaffold without a hat,, i learnt the hard way... nice work mate...
sigh, couldn't even wait for the vid to finish could ya lmao
@@cloudededen5819 tell me i,m wrong then🤣
You know how smells bring back memories, seeing him duck under the scaffold I remember the pain of leaving bits of scalp on clips
@@peterthebricky aye and it f,n hurts ,,had to have my scalp glued once ,,not pleasant..that,s why i cringe when i see them without hats...
Only time wearing hard hat was on site doing roofs kept banging me head on poles cos of the extra inch from hard hat, just got a bump cap and no one said anything after not much can fall on your head when your doing a roof
Pyramids 😂😂😂 holy f**king terminology
Mate you should not be reaching like that just because the wanker scaffs are thick! I wouldnt have even got on that gable lift untill ir was sorted
Alight Izzy wats the site called where u got them gloves from bud
Put all the links in the description brother 😁
Izzy we all know you aren't ambidextrous lol
Why do you always flip the camera so you lay left handed 😂
I really hope you have never had the unfortunate experience of working with a shaw brickie called Lee Baker.
10:35 the scaffolding should be altered no man should have to work on their knees to build brickwork
What a poor grade brick look like seconds, chipped bricks, interesting to see how they weather years to come.
there you go again getting over a problem that shouldn't exist. Scaffolders? how? why?
Scaffolders don’t think just wanna get done go home 👎🏻
Nothing worse than detritus 🤬
Use a smaller trowel and learn how to lay a bed and brick properly. You look like you started yesterday.
