Just wanted to say how lovely it is to see a farther and son team working together, Awwwww Bless! My eldest son is nearly five so a bit young to follow in my foot steps. I don't work in construction but have always found how builders build to be of interest. The bits you can not see behind the plaster board, foundations and service entries into buildings ect. Love your videos and the bond you have with your son. I remember working with my dad on painting and decorating jobs, times i will never forget. I hope to have a close bond like you have with your son with my two sons, I've got one five and the other two and a half. Keep up the great videos and i bet your a proud farther and well deserved too.

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

Wayne Nixon Thanks very much Wayne , I’m very lucky and very proud to have Alex working with me . We keep each other going on the bad days and have a laugh too . Construction can be very interesting when you watch it too . Thanks for watching and commenting pal 🧱👍🏽

[@davidbotterill7549]

Beautiful choice of stone. They really complement the garden and house. Do they suck up water like a brick or are they more like an engineering brick? Dave Birmingham

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

Hi Dave yeah they make a nice job . They need to be dry going down as they don’t take much water 🧱👍🏽

[@JimJimpmjj]

Excellent craftsmanship as always gents. Looking really nice. Glad you didn't tie in the the neighbors wall, by the looks of it that won't last much longer. Will be interesting to see if after you have completed the job the neighbor see's your fantastic work and asks for you to do them a new garden wall, weather it falls down or not. You would think they would of wanted it replaced as it's failing plus your all ready there. But I heard you say the neighbors didn't want it replacing. Good jobs gents 👍👍🍺👌

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

No mate our customer asked him but he said his builder said it’s fine........... one good nudge and it’s a gonna 😳.As you said it would have been cheaper to do both walls at the same time 🤷🏽‍♂️🧱👍🏼

[@JimJimpmjj]

@@SteveAndAlexBuild lmao his builder said it's fine lol 😂😂 strong winds and it will blow down lol. Oh well more fool him. Looking forward to the next one, always pleasure to watch you guys 👍

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

james swain 😂😂🧱👍🏼Cheers pal 🧱👍🏼

[@wayneleone]

If you were doing both walls in one go would you do it as one continuous wall or put an expansion joint down the middle to keep them separate?

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

Wayne L. Probably an expansion with slip ties 🧱👍🏽

[@stun9771]

Just a tip lads, if you are doing lots of work on public highways, get some signs and cones to put out...you know the ones...trouble with an umbrella and keep left/right...you never know when some well meaning person will pick up the phone...also, find out if you need a licence to store materials on the highway... I know you are not there long, but again, better safe than sorry...👍🏻

Nice work guys ! These abbeystones look awesome , are these like natural rocks ?? Non poreus??? I think a white or light gray mortar would blend in nicely with these white rocks too ...

Matt Cartwright Cheers Matt it means a lot that you have noticed as it takes many hours to put the videos together . 🧱👍🏽

[@Ratsotone]

Nice job lads, I just finished a similar job, but only the customer supplied their own stone that they'd ordered online, it was all supposed to be coursed at 75 x 300 x 100, but the depth of it varied from between 50mm and 85mm, which made it a bit of a nightmare to gauge, and apart from that they'd paid top dollar for it, £192 M2, but given the choice I'd prefer to lay the stone effect walling you're using in the video, I find some of it can look just as good as the natural product, and all at a fraction of the cost
