      John Wargo . Those railings were I think about 15 years old and not a bit of rust on them as the customers paid a lot extra for galvanised . They had them modified from fitting the pointed coping to fitting onto the new flat brickwork and then put back up . They really set the wall off 🧱👍🏼

    Great video mate, You and your son always do a fantastic job!
    Wondering - the way you mitre cut those bricks, would you do exactly the same if you were doing a wall for a house at an irregular angle? (would you use ties or the mesh?) Cheers

  • @Frenchwine15

    It does look good but why didn't you use some squirt bricks for the corner that wasn't at 90 degrees rather than puttingin a straight joint. Also a double tile crease looks better than an overhanging course of brick. Your work is nice and clean though. But the jointing is dreadful due to using a Marshall town jointing tool better to use a WHS or Tyzack.

    • @SteveAndAlexBuild

      It all boils down to individual taste I suppose. I’ve been using Marshalltown jointers for as long as they have been around and never had a complaint about my jointing .
      As far as the oversailer I don’t like the tile ... too many joints and mortar going on for frost to get at .
      The straight joint on the corner was because the angle isn’t a standard 45 degrees so squint bricks weren’t suitable.

      Steve and Alex as a third generation bricklayer having stated at the age of 16 ( 44 years in the trade) all I can say is " I am not perfect by any means but I always strive for perfection". Of course this is something that is never achievable as I can always see room for improvement in my own work. On. The whole I think the finished work looks well and most customers will be highly delighted. However, take it from me try one of the Suggested jointers and a thing called a rail runner something that was used extensively in Australia for long bed jointing. These suggest tools will make your good work look better. I am always looking to improve my work and if someone can do something I have not thought of I am more than happy to give it a try in case there is improvement in my finished product. Regards DD

    How come you guys don't start doing a bit of talking in between building. I reckon you guys would get tons more subs and views. As your work is tidy 👍

      01ozey01 . There are a few channels out there with most of them talking , we just decided to do things a bit different. To be honest we just film our work and upload it . We don’t make videos specifically for you tube and stopping and starting to talk to camera would disrupt our work too much . We have been uploading for just under 8 months so not been around very long so who knows things may change in the future .

      Andrew W . We do try to put some normal speed footage in occasionally but this video covers 20 hours work so it does need condensing to fit it into approximately 15 mins .

      minecraft king . Glad you like the Channel pal . We are trying to get more normal speed footage in . We have the time lapse in to fit as much of the project into a video around 13 mins long as possible . Too much normal speed can get a bit boring . We are working on it .
