Big thanks to Beth for filming this! Make sure to check out her channel here 😎🧱 bit.ly/3uPbeKA
I started in the masonry trade in 1968 as a hod carrier. The last twenty years of my career I worked as a foreman on many school, hospital and water treatment plant jobs. For two years I taught adult education masonry courses at a technical trade school. Those are my qualifications and for what it’s worth, I’d like to say something I hope would be helpful. The quality of your work is your reputation, and everyone can see it. For me, the main thing was the bricklayer’s attitude. A genuine cheerful, positive, helpful attitude was important for my crew, if a person had that I could overlook a few technical flaws. Watch your body at work. Watch every single motion. How many taps with your trowel, or steps to the mud board are really necessary? Eliminate all the wasted motions and you’ll be more productive and less tired. I enjoyed your video and can see you’re on your way with a good career. Best wishes to you and all my fellow bricklayers from the Appalachian Mountains of Pennsylvania USA!
Thoroughly enjoyed that, thank you. As a brickie who worked for many many years in MK and London, it was a great trip down memory lane. I now lay my bricks in NZ, totally different. Lovely video.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Milton keynes and london is where you worked. Now in NZ, as in new Zealand? What are you thoughts on bricklaying. No bias. The good and bad. In the uk not in NZ.
Good to see your labourer is stacking the blocks properly for you now 😉👌🏼. You lot are lucky not having soldiers over your lintels 😁🧱👍🏼
Missed out arguing with forklift drivers/ management, labourer being on his phone, silo breaking and the daily 1 minutes corgi video break 😅
😂
Is your name snedker by any chance
@@sprig6043 Sadly not mate, got a slightly boring name compared to that 😅
@@SnedzTheBricklayer loooool okie dokie mate
Big up the tradeswomen across the world❤️

@@OnTheToolsOfficial perv lol
No.
One on top of two it’s only Lego 🤣
That’s worksite banter 😂 good to see a youngen up that early 👍
Good on you lass,keep up the good work you are coming along nicely👍
First class bricklaying there. Well done.
Yes it was!
adorable brick layer
New subscriber looking forward to seein you work!
Good on you girl, hope you've stuck at and doing well 👍🧱
Reminds me of my wife , this is what I like to watch a pro on the job
pro?
Thats where all my 450 risers are!
Trowel skills like my apprentice's left hand. And he's a plasterer
Lefte and he's a plaster feel sorry for him 🤣
Are we going to see more back on your channel now Beth?
U do a better bed than me hahaha
Great clean level.
Is that a 'spacer' your'e using @ 3.21 ??
Carefully editing out all the dkheads that she has to work with.
And all the bodge jobs these 'bricklayers' do
You obviously never worked in construction before, life is not like you see in the movies where in this type of jobs(strength focus jobs) every men is sexist and rude, but let me tell you something, I have been in brick laying business for more then 7 years and we had to work with women a couple of times and they NEVER got disrespected or mistreated, sure, there where some guys started saying some sexist jokes behind their backs but that was nothing more then manly insecurities talking,as soon the women's came back to our side they behaved like puppies
Spots should be cleaned off last thing of every shift . Also , damp should be laid on a full , flat bed .... no voids at all . Just saying . ☺
i'm just saying you thought you HAD to say summat, like.
SHE SO STRONG GIRL 💪
Well done
You are very good at your job neat
Nice Girl but Bricklaying today is a Doddle 😀 I was a Bricklayer for nearly 60 years and I can assure you it was a lot harder than that👍
I know😂 I hear the stories and I can safely say I wouldn’t have been a bricklayer then
Good luck to you I’ve got nothing but admiration for you 👍
Thank you I appreciate that
Remember Rack back, don’t Tooth, keep your brickwork smooth, keep your closure next to your header, and you can’t go wrong😀😀👌
Lol the classic back in my day...
✌️Well DONE done WELL✌️
So you're a bricklayer. Cool.
How much do you earn a day I want to start bricklaying it looks fun
It isn't fun, it's a lot of hard work. You won't be working at that pace, you have to be a lot faster. No one appreciates what you do and nearly everyone will try and pay you as little as possible for your expertise that takes years to develop. It's good to be outside exercising all day but you also have to have a good diet if you don't want to be completely exhausted after work every day. Even then, some days you will get home and barely be able to move. There's a reason why a much higher percentage of builders do gear on a regular basis. All that said though, if you live a clean lifestyle then it is a good job 😂
Meanwhile the groundworkers wonder where the fresh pallet of risers went to 🤔🙄
And the soakaway crates, they always end up on the scaffold
Gotta lay em bricks
You are The Prettiest bricklayer I ever did saw.😚🤗
Good lass.
Did she say getting the (pot ) ready. she a nice kid 🍔 I would say she about 19 what do u think 🤔well done doing this job xx
That's a big trowel girl, mind your wrist
Keep well
I am a bricklayer, I work for three days, without a salary
Good stuff ,better than some of the so called pros ,
Haha yeah right
An apprentice is better than a pro? Mate stop kissing arse coz she’s a girl. If it was a lad you’d be nit picking his work
Haha, i have never come across such negativity towards a girl or a lad starting out in the trade no wonder there a lack of women in the trade and a lack of young men also wanting to take up bricklaying,i am giving my opinion as a bricklayer that i have seen alot worse on site bricklaying than that young woman and these so called pros will tell you there at it years , so if your a brickie tell me that u havent come across these so called pros with there filty trowels and levels and there tools in a old paint bucket and holes in there boots and health a safety is a money racket , so go fxxk yourself buddy , how many brickies u see on site cleaning there levels manky fxxkers,
@@IanIan-cj7dj if they can't do the job. They should work for persimmon or just do something else they good at. She won't last. Its a tough game. Not for women
I agree its a hard job for men ,and would not like to employ a female myself as i am sure a female is entitled to 9 months maternity leave that u have to pay haha,i work in london i have over 25 years as a brickie and to be honest i think she will be a fine brickie and i have seen worse OLD HANDS on site than her haha, but fair play to her and any one person male or female to take up the trade as u know they do a day or a week and tell u its not for them that they didnt think it was so hard i think the young people in general dont want to work hard and when i look at my kids there the same ,we created the problem giving them to much so fair play to this young woman better work ethic than alot of lads on site and im sure u will agree mate🙂
1 out of 1,200,000 lay bricks its is expected that 1000 women will be in the workforce laying bricks by 2061
Dont get much done in a day then
Call it a rough idea of my day
She’s not a bricklayer 😂 let’s see her lay some 140’s! Show me a blue CSCS card....
Bricklayers are a joke
Fair play on being a women tho
Typical bricklayer .
Moan about it being to hot /cold .
Bricks and muck are too far /close .
Muck is too dry / wet .
Etc etc etc
I work in a shipyard. This is easy street 😂😂
Why don't the industry's that make the tools make some pink coloured tools like the spirit levals trowels shovels plumblines and so on just a thourt
Because they'd sell 10 in a year. Yellow and red aren't stereotypically "masculine" colours anyway.
Bish is complaining about getting sun in 50 deg F 😂😂😂 you are SOFT over there in Europe homie
