- In this episode we will be smashing out walls in readiness for the new timber stud walls to allow us to reconfigure the kitchen area. I will be talking you through some do's and dont's when removing brick walls and trying to help you recognise when they are load bearing.
Well fellas went back to the beginning of your channel and have started to binge watch. Always a pleasure to see how it all began and how nervous you all seemed, didn't take long for that to wear off and the humour to kick in. I love watching the problem solving, the skills on display and the technical explanations, it's always a real pleasure to watch the professionals at work.....and who care! All the very best.
Loving Matts new moustache...bit of a Hercule Poirot vibe going in 😉
Another great tutorial vid Rich with clever wit between you, Matt and the audience.
Great to see proper tradesmen going about their work.
One of the finest examples of brick wall removal you’re ever likely to see! 👍
Evening lads another great honest video it's great to see craftsman at work 👍🏻👍🏻
Video is too short! Great viewing this week as always. House will look brilliant when plastered and kitchen units in.
One very clean building site!! I can now see why you kept the soup cupboard under the stair case. With the walls down theirs enough open floor space.
Love your down to earth advice and your sarcasm 😎
Really interesting and useful, thanks. I thought it was a good balance of explanation to timelapse.
Is Mick coming back?
Looks like things are gonna get busy. 👍👍✌🇮🇪
Brilliant video as usual very informative and professional
Loving watching the demolition as well as the repairs. Building regs suggest a complete perimeter of board adhesive when boarding any outer walls of a property to stop air movement or ingress. Dots are fine on internal walls though. Cheers Matt and Rich, keep them coming pls.
Another interesting and informative video. As well as the naff structural shenanigans, I'm sure there will be a few Sparkys triggered by the wiring bodges? 😮
i have come across some structural stud in victorian houses its not used extensively that way but i have seen it .... great advice video .....
We've had multiple opportunities to see Matt's top notch plastering. It's so top notch that I'm surprised to see him do anything else. What's the story, Matt? Are there no plastering jobs at the mo, is variety the spice of life, or should I just mind my own business?
Hi ya mate sorry for the late reply but it’s getting more and more difficult to try to reply to all comments. On behalf of Matt he decided before the start of the job we had the sack from to join us full time as he does indeed enjoy the variety and therefore like the rest of the team enjoys doing his own trade when the time comes as he’s seen it from the start and also gets to see it finished. 👍🏻
you just covered it lol once again good thourouh advice .......
great stuff Rich...... builders are just starting our house extension ...so external brickwork at side is going to become internal rooms. can that be just strapped and then plaster boarded / dot and dab ??......does the brickwork have to be treated with anything before this starts ??? love your channel. where's mick ??
A bit off topic…I’ve been watching your renovation of your own home series. What a great job. I was just wondering, we are about to start renovating our house. We aren’t extending but all the woodwork (skirtings/door frames/etc) are all really tired and we want the whole house replastered. Would you recommend taking the walls back to block work (it’s a 24yr old house) and then start afresh with new plasterboard etc rather than just skimming over the current plaster?
love this! cant wait for you to do the insulation part as i have some damp issues that need to be sorted on a solid wall construction. I have emailed you for advice as i trust it unlike others.
The video of the gyp liner insulated wall will be in two weeks time 👍🏻
@mrabuilders6723 amazing i can't wait thanks for the reply 😊
Ve loved tzis wery much
😂👍🏻
How many times have I had to put right bodges before I could even start putting things back the way customers wanted? Too many times, probably like you!
We have had an extension built years ago in conjunction with the neighbours. There is no insulation between the party wall. When I questioned it, I was told that it is done because of sound passing thorough. Is that correct?
Great video as always. Why are they having a corridor (which is dead space) could they just stick a door in the corner and go straight in to the utility room? Love the video lads
They wanted a walk way to the back door so they didn’t have to walk through the kitchen. Understandable I suppose and the kitchen and utility are more than big enough 👍🏻
The boys work very fast lol 👻
Pretty sure with asbestos, the cement based one you don't need a license to take it out , but then you need a company that can dispose of it , there is someone on Facebook that does it , the job we did an old barn roof , they did get it tested tho first to make sure it was the less harmful asbestos, then we just stacked the sheets ready for them to collect
A bit of misunderstanding with various terms here regarding the dangers of asbestos. Effectively, there is no form of asbestos that is in any way safe. It is best if you treat all forms of it as totally lethal- which ,in effect, it is. The lethal "dose" or amount can be as little as one single fibre. I would far rather remove any sheet asbestos from my own property as I'd know that it was done correctly and the site left completely free on completion. Removal of ancient pipe lagging etc., from commercial/industrial sites is a whole different kettle of fish and requires certain work methods and equipment that is not available to the average punter.
Again no noggins stiffening the joist in the 1980s extension. Probably nneded 2 sets for joists that shallow.
Who's the mexican bloke working with you ?????
It’s Matt the plasterer 😂 this was filmed during Movember so he grew his moustache for charity
Why don’t we bond and skim walls anymore Mr A I hate plaster board just saying
My answer to that would be a lack of skill set in trades people nowadays, it’s too messy and takes too long. Everyone is in too much of a rush but time is money and all that 🤷👍🏻
The attitude with a lot of DIY is that it will see me out 👎🏾👎🏾👎🏾
