Should have gone with a POE solution.

Thats exactly how I paint them, mini fat roller and the same brush/roller tub, but I use Johnstones opaque wood finish, it lasts for years

Take the panels off to avoid spreading paint on the posts.

I lifted some carpet in an old farmhouse I was living in and there was a bunch of old newspaper under the carpet which was cool to read. There were ads for clothing and stuff, it was cool.

They aren’t pitch pine

That seems really cheap for MOT 1? For me it’s around £100 for 800kg

What is that tool you used to open the can? I need one

Sink support

Glade you had the skill set , most people could not have done it . Great looking job

Insulated plasterboard would have been much easier…wet the wall, apply foam, stick the board to it

What’s this amateur hour ??

In the UK, it is easy to find replacement floorboards from reclamation yards. I was able to find an exact match floorboard for a house build in the 1730s.

Never seen or heard of drywall brackets are they American or something.

Yeah that's the old cast iron mount for the huge cast-iron sink that used to sit there

Two things of note for me on the same job: oh, it’s lime morta, no wonder it is weak. I’m putting the bricks in a bucket of water for a bit and that helps the morta stick. My brick ties are a well chunky steel straps. It was cavity filled with flock.

How come you’re doing away with the window ?

Good job

Someone’s on day rate 😂

think you just like spending money ???

use metal drywall job done plumb and strong easy to board easy to do ! fraction of the cost !

You need a dust mask

Wash the joints with full fat milk and or yought. It helps to encourage growth and hence age the joints

I helped my father lay underfloorheating when he built our converted barn In norfolk... 8 bedroom property Immense spaces throughout the place was HUGE.... i dare not even think about how much it cost given these costs nearly 25 years later, top job my man

You didn’t know how to do it who you fooling

I found a bit of news paper from the 50s in one of my walls, saying that a chimpanzee had escaped and jumped aboard one of the old tram cars

DIY however long you think it will take, multiply by 3

I found an 80s newspaper with 2 bedroom apartments for $450.00.

Our home is a 1900s corner shop. Double common brick. Old school. I did my own hardwall whiteset plaster over lime cement render. Ended up doing it twice. Had so much more figured out the second time around. It's all in the preparation. I tried to plaster over existing plaster. Did the PVA, cut out the drummy render and filled with new lime cement sand render. Everything was looking good, but as it cured, it pulled the rest of the old cement render off the wall. We had cracks and bits of wall falling off. I just ordered a skip and tore it all off every wall. took them all back to brick and spent the next 4 days with a friend rendering the walls with the lime cement and white sand render, and another 3 days on my own doing the lime gypsum hardwall whiteset. My hands were messed. Lime is brutal on your skin....But. It's been the best investment. I was able to square up some wonky walls. The hardwall literally turns to limestone. Its like rock. Super hard. Trouble it, it takes time, its messy, you have to wait 6-12 weeks before you can seal it. The sealer is oil based, and the fumes are full on. It's 48 hours before you can hit it with a primer coat after you've sealed it. Given that, once its done, you'll never have to touch it....unless you decide to fully duct the range hood to outside 🙂 More recently I spent a day painting over some existing "legacy" paint . The product I had certainly stuck to the enamel paint, but that enamel peeled off from underneath, so it all had to come off. I took it all back as far as I could to the plaster and started from scratch. Didn't do any short cuts with the old horse hair plaster ceiling. I spent my time stripping it back, filling it and patching it, oil sealer binder, primer and two coats, all done with a brush on a ladder. Came up a treat. Every time I think I can save some time, it always bites me in the arse. I end up having to do it again. If I do it properly, it takes 3 times as long, creates twice the mess, but the end result is usually far superior

Don’t like it. Looks flimsy.

That is a lot of work for nothing. Just estimate and use thicker standers at the part that needs raising. Especially if you are going to plaster over the plaster board.

Why remove a window tho?

We've got loads of pipes like that on our landing and managed a really good job bridging the pipes with ply board. Though did install shims to make level, plus like you circled the correct screws and glued close the holes that would lead to a screw going through a pipe ...!!

😮😮😮yeah ok 👌😅why if you can fix to noggins anyway

Should've cut the patch to fit the boards not the other way around

Measure 10 times, cut once.

Just plane it down homie

Dot and dab and plaster board would be fine, and cheaper, these brackets seem like a lot of effort

You’re well fit

Just to be that person, it’s not 6am in the morning, it’s either 6am or 6 in the morning

No price on how much your making off this video to offset the costs!

Just double board

Sorry but watching this is so painful! The brackets are for a gypliner system, they’re not meant for timber. You are doing it wrong mate

That metal chunk was used to holda Belfast sink. There was 2 of them

or you could have used a simple string line across the face of the brick work and built the new part of the wall to that! bricklaying 101, then saved money buying brackets you didn't really need. SIMPLES!

Build the frame off the floor to the ceiling, then it only needs packers, and it allows for proper insulation.

Thicker dollops of gear on the block wall to make up the 35mm no? It’s pretty good stuff

Good job lad

Plasterboard lift! Make your life easier next time. Also plasterboard props are handy. Bessey do a nice one I recommend personally.

Had a similar thing when I moved my sink from back wall in kitchen to middle of the kitchen onto the island. Running the maths was fun cutting though joists then bending keeping fall going. Had about 3mm of height left at the end. Was a sweating moment punching thru to the drains…no blockages yet 12 months on 😂

Buy yourself a sds mortar rake. Makes brick removal much faster and cleaner.
