I don't think any other builders put there achievements and their mistakes on their vids. Hats off to you guys, dealing with minor and major issues in a style that is very professional. Nice one Mr A. and co !!

[@Mr_A_Builders]

Maybe other builders don't make as many mistakes as I do!!! Haha! Thank you, Woody! Really appreciate your time once again. All the best.

[@darrenbean4611]

Another great video, I’m an electrician and what I do is mark out my spotlights then pierce the centre with a small flat head. Makes it miles easier to find the hole when using the dade

[@Mr_A_Builders]

That's a top tip mate! I'll nick that one if you don't mind?!!! Thank you for watching mate, all the best.

[@kevmorris558]

Great video Adam. Just a thought, why not bring the toilet waste out vertically and then use a 45 to connect into the main soil pipe? It would then match the rain water from the roof. I’m sure there is some regulation that says you can’t but thought I’d ask. Keep up the good work 👍

[@MarcusT86]

Another fantastic video. Looking forward to the rest, and the latest one on the basement build… Leaving them for work tonight!

[@Mr_A_Builders]

Cheers mate! What do you do?

[@MarcusT86]

@@Mr_A_Builders hello buddy, I am a shift manager at our beloved Wetherspoon’s. But I do the night shift as we have a hotel. I bought a renovation project 5 years ago that’s in a hell of a state but only chance I had at owning. So I’ve watched endless content, such as yours, to learn. I’m slowly giving it a go on my own gaff when I get in from work most days. This is tiring as you can imagine so some days I just sleep haha. Even filmed loads of stuff so was going to make my own channel in future once I get around to editing it. Thank you for the continued amazing content to help me and others learn mate 👍🏼

2 and 3/4 hrs to mist spray an entire second floor Reno…..blimey; that is just amazing. How do you vent all those fumes after spraying as everything is sealed up. Another fantastic vid Adam.

[@paulharrison9570]

Nice to see even pros make little mistakes but still make it work. Great video as always

[@martin-jj9pe]

in the extractor fans you should have had two non return vents when the fan is on in the toilet it will vent into the utility room

[@optic1972]

I was going to say the same but the secondary issue will be when both are on at the same time which will have priority?

[@jeffreygeary5398]

You should put in a y type tee instead of o square one this will make a big difference to the air flow.

[@peterfarley3217]

I wondered this too, you don't want the loo blowing into the utility. Perhaps the utility fan unit will have a non return valve built in?

[@RagingBlade1]

I am watching the video now and was going to make the same comment. I’ve used these flaps to block air flowing in from outside too.

[@Mr_A_Builders]

Exactly!

[@markwho3018]

how do you stop smells coming up through the running outlet on the canopy gutter?

[@colinsimpson2421]

Brilliant video, you remain calm and take everything in your stride. Thanks for sharing.

[@Mr_A_Builders]

That's a nice comment to read, Colin, thank you! Appreciate your time, mate.

[@WombleUK]

We had a conversation on site last week about Carpenters who reckon they never fu*ked a door up & the unanimous verdict was they are full of sh*t. I been a Carpenter & Joiner for 37yrs & there's not much I not done to a door over the years, hinge chopped wrong side of line, swung wrong way, hung upside down 🥴 Any builder or carpenter who says they not screwed something up either hasn't actually done much or is lying. Full credit for showing the mistakes in your vids, lots of KZbinrs edit all that out to make out they are perfect when in reality they are being dishonest/deceptive.

[@Mr_A_Builders]

Amen to that!!! Couldn't agree more mate and appreciate you saying so. Thank you for watching mate, all the best.

[@MarcusT86]

Anyone who says they don’t make a mistake are full of crap. When you perform enough repeated actions, it’s a psychological impossibility not to make an error.

[@fardastevie2827]

beautiful job lads ..as for the spraying it was you that put me onto the wagner sprayer i settled with the wagner 250 brilliant bit of kit

[@Mr_A_Builders]

Nice one! That's ace mate.

[@amanfriday3141]

I have the same Wagner sprayer as you and have a couple of points which might be useful: You are right about spitting when using an extension. You might consider getting a Graco CleanShot which bolts on to the tip end of the extension. It has an internal adjustable spring which cuts off the flow of paint when you release the trigger. I have one and always use it with any length extension. Your comment about the whip hose was interesting. I find I have to wrestle with the 15m Wagner hose and it can be a nightmare in narrow halls. However, the threads on both ends of the Wagner hose is unique to Wagner and they confirmed this to me. This means that you can only connect a Wagner hose to the Wagner machine and only connect a Wagner gun to a Wagner hose. I was about to say that you can’t get a whip hose to connect to a Wagner hose but checked and discovered that they are now available in various lengths - I’ll be ordering one pronto! For completeness, you can connect e.g. Graco extensions, tips and guards to a Wagner gun. I learned a lot from the Idaho painter but there are a number of UK outlets that now offer a complete range of equipment. I can send you some links of you like. Many thanks for posting the video and best wishes, Rob

[@Mr_A_Builders]

Well there you go! I'll look into that whip straight away! Thank you mate, all the best.

[@dab6151]

Hi grate video and not to much talking you all way say it the way it is. Not a big problem but I would rerun the rain water pipe to a trapped gully pot so the drain is not venting via the gutter outlet and stop rats from the main drains.

[@MrAbdulHaque]

Will the surface mounted extractor fan from the WC be powerful enough tp open the back draft shutter at the other end? I've got 2 in-line fans for WC and Utility, duct split via a y joint to a silent fan (yet 4 times more poweful than surfaced fans), which then has a metal back draft shutter with rubber seals to minimise potential flap sounds from external air coming in.

[@philrogers2406]

Thanks for the video guys. House is progressing nicely

[@Mr_A_Builders]

It's our pleasure, Phil! Thank you for watching! Appreciate the comment mate, all the best.

[@jruk1981]

Found another way to tease us it seems ha! :-)

[@jonathanhasmail]

Don’t bother with a short whip, go for the 1.8m one from Spray Equipment Supplies, not only does it protect the main hose, it also reduces wrist strain as it moves more easily. Trade Tip holder opens up the range of tips you can use including FF (fine finish) for architraves and skirtings. 👍

[@Mr_A_Builders]

Cheers mate, appreciate that. I'm debating whether or not to spray the skirtings and architraves...but it's a lot of masking and I've done it in the past where the tape has damaged the paint on the walls, do you recommend a good tape to prevent this? Cheers mate.

[@jonathanhasmail]

I’m a lowly DIYer so probably not the right person to ask. My best success has come from using a low tack tape or the plastic with tape attached on the emulsion which has had a couple of days to dry and removing it as soon as possible after painting, i.e. whilst the paint is still wet although this has its own challenges (latex gloves, balling it up as you go and straight into a bin bag. Other channels I’ve watched seem to suggest painting off the wall and then simply touching up the pin holes. You are lucky as you have an excellent joiner at hand so filling should be at an absolute minimum, no pressure Rich!

[@TheWebstaff]

I used an Aldi airless sprayer to do most of my house. Messy AF got to prep loads but so fast.

[@PollyannaHubbard]

Another great video guys, house is coming along nicely 👍 are your rainwater pipes allowed into waste soil pipes? Where I live they have to be seperate 🤔

Spray direct in Glasgow sells the wagner units and accessories, I could be worth trying them for your whip hose attachment. I know they have a couple of outlets don't know if any of them are local to yourself.

Thank you, Derek. I'll look them up. Hope you're well mate.

Congratulations to the winner 🏆 👏

[@chrissybfcful]

Great video lads, on the topic of the soil issue, could you not have just used a standard branch 92° Tee?? I can't think of any reason why not but you may have a valid reason why 😂 👍

[@Mr_A_Builders]

Hello Chris, hope you're well mate. Pure aesthetics I'm afraid, and made a rod for my own back at the same time! That corner of the house will always be on show and I didn't want a big bulky 90⁰ 'T' as they tend to have a section for 40mm or 32mm pipe into them...I know I know...I can hear you rolling your eyes!!! Haha!

[@chrissybfcful]

I knew there would have been a reason 😆 you also mentioned traps namely mcalpine. Have you tried polypipe traps?? A fraction cheaper and as good as. I tend to stick to the same shower waste however but there's a company called JT and they do a very good shower trap and less than half the price of the mcalpine one 👍have a look 👌

[@clivewilliams3661]

The ducting described carries the risk that when the internal toilet is in use the smelly vent will discharge into the utility room as it is less resistive than flowing all the way to the outside. There needs to be a backdraught shutter in the utility fan, or better still two systems. Also, to ensure proper flow and so as to minimise noise, there needs to be turning vanes in the straight duct to direct the branch duct air flow.. i have never understood why there is a modern fixation with paint spraying for small domestic premises because the amount of masking up that has to be carried out for a proper job takes so long that a skilled decorator will have painted the walls and ceiling in the same time and then there is all the cleaning down..... In my experience where contractors have used spray painting on small roomed premises the decorators ends up spending far too much time cleaning off over spray. On one job the overspray in the dining room took 3 days to clean down and repaint the glosswork, when a skilled decorator would have rollered the paint on and cut in around the glosswork within an hour. I suspect the attraction for using spray paint lies in using unskilled labour for painting and the fallacy that you can achieve vehicle like quality (all the gear and no idea!). Spray painting has its place when painting large simple spaces like industrial sheds.

[@TheEmbeddedHobbyist]

Don't you need two flapper valves so the toilet can't blow into the utility room as well as going out? or does the fan in the utility room have a built in flapper valve?

[@Mr_A_Builders]

Hello mate. The fans will have their own non return valve so hopefully it'll be ok!

[@jonathannuttall8369]

Should you not have two vales to stop air coming out of the middle vent as and wen it's not on but the one downstream is.

[@abuhaqq]

49:52 when I looked into the different colour soil pipes, I found out that the orange ones are for underground only as they're not UV protected and crack after a period of time due to exposure. I wonder if this has changed?

[@scottyboy69123]

To meet current building / extraction rates for a utility should be a minimum of 30l/s to achieve that you usually have to fit 6 inch fan, unless you use a constant velocity fan then you would get away with a 4 inch and extraction rate would only need to be 8l/s mininmum.

[@jbclassics]

Hopefully you are not going to leave that rainwater plumbed into the soil pipe, or does it have some weird and wonderfully designed fitting to accommodate the rainwater, just asking lol

[@MrAustinPowers]

With door header it’s a shame you can’t copy the top of the old fire place header in timber for that heritage feature

@mrabuilders6723 That's great to hear! I can't tell you how much I've enjoyed watching this build, loved every episode. ❤️ 👏👏

[@markrainford1219]

Both fans should have had backdraught shutters. Or a single inline fan after the utility room vent.

[@Halesy32]

Good work but why didnt you drill spotlights before mist🤷‍♀️ or even have them pre drilled maybe i missed something.

[@Mr_A_Builders]

Hello mate. Personal preference for no real reason as it doesn't matter either way. If you spray over the hole for the light then you can kick a load of dust out of them, but you have to spray over them at some point but one less chance of it happening isn't a bad thing.
