I appreciate the facts that you told that guy to reposition himself on the top of that truck and also told the truck driver to stay off the neighbor's yard.
Building additions and houses in the philly area for over 30 years...Next time you're setting up block for laying; have a few guys going from the block to each spot. Swing each block to the next guy...Saves your back...Laborers, ran well, save a lot of wear and tear...You guys are lucky...Here, we need 12 Inch Semi solid up to grade...Also, when parging in the outside, run mud on the footer with a pitch so you don't get wash out between the footer and the block...before you seal coat it... The block guys were good mechanics....
Nice work Bondo. Always nice to see skilled workers show off their skills. Lots of people worried about drainage. You actually reduced the runoff onto the neighbor’s yard by running the gutters into the drain system, that would have ran onto the neighbor’s before. I don’t get why people don’t see that. Stay safe!
Agreed 👍. Being on the lake. And with great property pitch on both properties...It's a great opportunity to do drainage around the addition perimeter and all runoff can be taken to the lake .. Return the water from nature to nature in this case ... I would have added interior footer weeping lines and connect to outter drainage lines draining to the lake ..If it's crawl space... Didn't you have to install vapor barrier under concrete? Or vents in block walls

✨👍. Great job. Do you do all of NYS? I'm in Upstate NY near Buffalo... Getting ready to sell ... Moving South...But I would love to refer you to anyone looking to buy my house...Thanks for the simple explanation of what you're doing... Would be great to have a picture of finished addition ✨🤗
Nice work - surprised the basement wasn’t deeper - hard to tell head height. Nice drainage destination in the back yard. I would have suggested a property line retaining wall for future!
I think they mentioned that it's a crawl space, not a full basement. Probably just need enough headroom for plumbing, electrical, and HVAC runs to the new addition.
No need. Plenty of pitch on both properties going towards the lake. The neighbor could always do french drain lines between properties going towards the lake
@@RH-cv1rgI’m sure there’s a reason, but personally I’d think another foot would make it much easier to work in - especially for anyone over that height.
That wasn't power. That was Cable TV and fiber optics. Power is the top wire. Middle is telephone. We used to call Ma Belle. And bottom is cable tv and fiber optics.
You say there's rebar holding the wall to the footing but earlier in the video you show yourself pouring that footing and there was no vertical rebar protruding from it.
Several years ago I started adding a key way of 1”x10”, it’s nothing fancy but I feel like it adds a layer of strength and gives the bevel of parging a better chance of success, just my 2 cents, take from it what you will, cheers!
How is it you are lucky enough to get so many Lake front jobs? LOL Beautiful views, but usually very tight circumstances, and property lines fiercely protected. They literally fight over inches, instead of feet. Very nice work, especially in such a tight job site. I can see a neighborhood war coming about water runoff, after the first good rain, lol 🤦♂️😳😂😉
Thanks The neighbors were cool and we talked about the water and there is a nice ditch between the houses that drains to the lake. Also we made sure to have drains to catch the gutters.
@@bondobuilt386 I figured you would have all your ducks in a row, your attention to detail is obvious, it sounds like you were a bit lucky on this one, I’ve done more than a few lakefront jobs, and neighbors can be very trying, just glad at this point to be an armchair quarterback, my mason days are far behind me now. 👍👌😉
How can it be that the home owner in this case when the existing house was built on a full basement (window) and visible above ground level. don't you then choose during the extension to (for almost no increased cost) dig a little deeper and let you build a 14 block high foundation wall so that you can get (double area) with 9' interior ceiling height in the basement level? Hard to understand that one misses that opportunity for only slightly more expensive (work and more concrete hollow blocks) for double area in the finished extension?
Money. Money is the answer. Of course it’d be better if it were deeper / walk out. But I’m guessing the owner didn’t have the money. Could have been only “a few bucks more” but for most people a budget exists for a reason …. Not to be exceeded
@@MrRoberoni117or the owner had no idea it was smarter or even practical to do it that way and the contractor never gave them that possibility. I had this happen 10 years back and when people asked why I didn’t just do “X” and I asked my contractor why we didn’t do that and he told me “because you never asked”. 🙄
all that work and time and drainage for what? A crawl space. Silly. Dig a few feet deeper and a full basement with walkout to the lake. Wow. Big gain in property value. Feels like paying a massage therapist for a hand job when a few dollars more gets you full body. 😂
What good is drilling rebar into the foundation or placing the rebar in the cells after the wall is poured? All you had to do was layout the center line of the wall and measure the cell locations and L shaped rebar. The vertical bonds are no good with no connection to rebar in footing. Plus, backfilling on freshly laid block wall?
This is code compliant we do not need hook downs in our footings in this part of the country. We backfilled with stone against the wall. basically no pressure on the wall. also only a short wall. a full basement we would wait for the wood cap to be framed and wall to cur longer.
Oh my God. Please don't ever let anyone do that again. The guy can be on the ground with a piece of PVC pipe and a slight notch cut in it to lift the wire. A board could be used as well but the PVC pipe would be better. inch and a half id or od. In this neck of the woods those bare wires would be before the transformer and in the low thousands of volts and he came close to dying that day. He didn't feel some hair standing up as it was? the truck wasn't grounding, not enough water for that, maybe .Good luck in the future and thanks for the video.
I'm just across the Lake O from here. Couple of things I noticed are different. Have you got 4 foot frost cover from finished grade to underside of footings? You parged, but no damp proofing (tar)? Was that an oversight? I've noticed in several videos done around north eastern US that you pin your block to the footings and fill cores with concrete. I've even seen bloc-loc (wire reinforcement) every three courses. The wall is restrained at the bottom by the slab and at the top with the floor structure. Is this a code thing for you?
He also doesn’t have any vertical rebar in the block so technically the only thing holding the block wall to the footing is the mortar that the block was set in😮
Great show. What I don't get is, the two big boys are working so hard, how the hell are they not slim? They should be losing 20 lbs per day doing this the way they move.
Good quality work! I know you use ICFs often, how come you used blocks this time? Cost? What’s the approximate cost difference on this job if you would have used ICFs?
you guys do nice work but why put roof water down on your footer gutter debris will eventually cause a problem just run another run of solid pipe above
Those ties to existing building look concerning 15mins into video.. Block structure is on a different foundation to the house foundation so if there is movement over the years = cracking. Movement joint ties do you have them in the States ?
Next time you need to put stone inside a wall, just get it put on a mixer and shoot it out in there. You only need a little water just to get the stones wet, works really good.
Ya I know you can do it that way but hard to get a concrete truck to deliver the stone and twice the cost. We had to get it done fast and it only took us about 1-1/2 hours to do all that stone.
You could do that ...I would have put dimple board up after rolling liquid rubber on the walls ...I'm wondering why vapor barrier wasn't put down before slab was poured since it's a crawl space
Just a thought. You sloped the dirt towards the neighbor's lawn next to the garage. Do not be surprised when those lovely neighbors complain that the runoff of rain floods their yard. Also shouldn't you run the filter fabric up along the wall and over the stone along the wall, cover the fabric on top of the stone then put dirt against the fabric? Without the fabric on top that dirt will eventually end up mixed with the stone and clogging it up defeating the function of the stone.
the stone down low has the cloth over it to keep dirt out of the stone. The neibors were involved in how we pitched the grade. There is a nice channel between both the houses.
The foam board will keep everything from mixing...Plus all stone will drain better..and being on the sides it won't be affected by runoff ..They're is plenty of options for drainage since the lake is right there. If you're going to have a house near the water...Then you should be prepared to do proper drainage around your property
Curious, what are doing as a floor for this project? Looking at the “same type” of build but would like to pour a concrete floor. Better off backfill completely? Thanks
how do you deal with when setting up a wall, with in the total length you only need to make up less than 1/2 a block ,say 1-2", you need to make up vs cut a piece of block. to complete a course , Do you make the motar on the ends of the blocks a bit thicker to make up the couple inch amount over the course
Lol...I meant the tool you had in your hand. I researched and found out it's a laser level. I've always wanted one but didnt know what it was called or the brand name(?) You guys did an absolute amazing and beautiful job with that wall! WOW! Impressive!!
Thank you for the excellent video! Could you share the manufacturer of that dark foam insulation? Have you ever had ants burrow through the foam board? A number of years ago I left a scrap piece of 2" Dupont "blue board" polystyrene on the ground (sandy soil) for several months and when I turned it over I found that the ants had tunneled their way all through it. Cheers!
Bonjour, dommage la fin de la vidéo montre que vous ne remplissez pas les bloc creux de béton. Pourtant c'était du bon travail, sauf qu'il manque cette étape pour réellement solidifié le mur. Dans le temps un mur creux s'affaisse ou se brise avec les mouvements de terrain ainsi que le poids qui lui vient contre.
good crew, good reliable work. one friendly suggestion is get the guys a cool comfortable uniform. its a sloppy look having them in street clothes or taking thier shirts off -- makes you look bad when clearly the result is anything but that. make that small change that will take your jobs from good to great.

Nice work.
you don't put tar or water barrier on the outside of block wall? different climate zone.
This Parge coat does not need tar. It is water resistant. Plain mortar would require tar.
here in Seattle everythngs gotta wear rubber boots
@@tandemcompound2 gotcha 👍👍
Even concrete foundations have waterproofing applied prior to back fill
Good quality work! I know you use ICFs often, how come you used blocks this time? Cost? What’s the approximate cost difference on this job if you would have used ICFs?
Yes it cost about 40 to 50 percent less to do blocks.
Is tar no longer used on exterior foundation underground?
The parge coat we use now does not need tar coating. The old mortar parge did.
Where are the crawlspace vents.?
They spray foamed the inside walls and it was all conditioned space under there.
I always used B-bond to parg the block because it added strength and is more water proof the just mortar.
Because the grade of that property is now higher and there's no drainage ditch on the property line... won't rain runoff flood the neighbors property?
what lake is this? You mentioned upstate NY but I couldn't understand you when you pronounced the name of the lake.
Oneida Lake.
you guys do nice work but why put roof water down on your footer gutter debris will eventually cause a problem just run another run of solid pipe above
We usually run 2 pipes but that is how they engineered it.
Where was the plasta that was one the walls earlier ...😮😮...did you removed if before you cast the floor??
Those ties to existing building look concerning 15mins into video.. Block structure is on a different foundation to the house foundation so if there is movement over the years = cracking. Movement joint ties do you have them in the States ?

Just a thought. You sloped the dirt towards the neighbor's lawn next to the garage. Do not be surprised when those lovely neighbors complain that the runoff of rain floods their yard.
