Bricklaying - Bad start/Good finish 💪

[@IzzytheBricky]

This was actually my favourite video I've made since I started KZbin. Hope you guys appreciate the honesty and the new mic 😂 now you can all hear what dribble comes out my mouth! Have a brilliant weekend guys, thank you for all the support recently!

[@aaronhanratty6018]

much more clear now mate good investment 👍class work as always can't wait for the next one 🧱 specially with the new mic 🤣

[@daverogerson5969]

Hiya Izzy, yeh I do appreciate it myself, I have been in several trades, there is not a man alive that does,nt make mistakes mate and if there is he is either lying or never done anything, I really enjoy watching you, mainly because you have such a good outlook and you have a great personality. We all go through shit in life mate, it's how we deal with it. I love the rocky line "it's not how hard uou can hit, its how hard you can get hit and keep getting up" keep up the good work brother.

[@richardchapman5174]

People prefer it when mistakes are found out. It proves that everyone is fallible to the odd mistake. It's how we resolve them that is the key.

[@IzzytheBricky]

That's is Richard mate 💪

[@stuartalderson6805]

Great honesty with your little mistake solutions not problems

[@IzzytheBricky]

Thanks so much Stuart 🤜🤛🙂

Cheers Andy, haha yea definitely right there, many more to come 😂 Cheers mate, down to you lads watching I'm able to treat myself

[@johnbarker6703]

Takes a big man to admit on camera that he has made a big mistake, takes an even bigger man to sort out the problem and still remain smiling. Shit happens and it's how you deal with it that makes you who you are. Top job, onwards and upwards.

[@IzzytheBricky]

Thanks John! I was doubly gutted cos I had it all on camera 😂 but we got there in the end!

[@IzzytheBricky]

Thanks for the support buddy!

[@chrisreynolds4595]

Izzy, I stumbled across your channel about a fortnight ago. You are a champion mate. So positive. You videos are excellent and so easy to watch. Love the way you teach others with so much enthusiasm and encouragement. You are a natural. As a plumber in Oz, I see some terrible bricklayers around. Terrible tradesman in general. But you mate, are a ripper!! Keep it up buddy!!!

[@IzzytheBricky]

Mate, thanks so much for commenting and finding the channel! Fantastic to hear your enjoying the videos and also appreciate the way I like to teach the lads 💪 hope your nice and warm over there mate! I've got a new video out this Monday! Have a brilliant weekend 💪💪

I love it when the drawing has no measurements and then it says at the bottom “do not scale” haha ok I’ll just guess it then😂😂top work mate 👍

[@IzzytheBricky]

Joke init 😂 it's like... we're almost gonna tell you what to do, but not take any responsibility for it 😂

[@sedulousdabbler5468]

Always show your mistakes, it's the best way to learn. It's great to see a brickie who isn't a 'mockney', and who has a vocabulary consisting of words with more than four letters and one syllable . Great stuff Izzy.

[@IzzytheBricky]

😂😂😂😂 love that, try to use a half decent vocabulary Thanks so much mate appreciate it 🤜🤛

[@andrewdoherty737]

sound is brilliant now, keep up the good work

[@IzzytheBricky]

Thank you mate 🤜🤛

[@joecurran]

Never scale a drawing Izzy it contracts and expands same as a lot of other materials on a site, I'm sure your aware of that, tip let someone else make the call if you don't have a written measurement because assumptions can bite you in the pocket, when there is a foreman their let him or her sort it out. Nice work, clean Job is a happy Job.

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

Flyin up mate and not too shabby either . Got over the bad start really well . I cocked up the floor on our recent big fold door extension job . It was 45 mil low . We had no work for a fortnight so no money coming in then a day and a half un paid to screed the floor which I’ve never done before then over £150 in materials all just after a huge bill off the tax man , all pretty grim mate . Not surprisingly we left the go pro at home for a while then. Hope you’re feeling better buddy 🤜🏻🤛🏻🧱👍🏼

[@IzzytheBricky]

Ah Steve that sounds much much worse than my lil mistake 😭 loads of hits like that can really take a toll, hope your doing ok now mate! And let's not talk about tax bills 😭 I'm waiting to get the money from my house before I pay mine off 😭😭😭 Feeling much better now mate, thank you, just one of those really tough 💙 weeks

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

Looks great quality. The fact you included the mistake and the way you dealt with it will gain you customers. Thanks for sharing.

[@IzzytheBricky]

Thanks very much Joe, appreciate it! Try to be quite transparent Hope you have a good week

[@Ogma3bandcamp]

Smashed it out lad. Watching this makes me wish I was 30 years younger. 30 years ago I was living in your area and making bricks for Hepworths in Ellistown. They're long gone now, I believe. Great videos and the mic is the business.

[@IzzytheBricky]

Thank you very much mate! Didn't know you lived around here mate 🤜🤛 glad you liked the mic

[@paymart04]

In England there is a saying, "learn from your mistakes". Here in Poland, we have a slightly different saying. He who does nothing makes no mistakes. Just for the record, I'm a Brit living in Poland. A mistake is something that can and is corrected. A "cock up" is when it's hard or impossible to correct. Fact is we all make mistakes and cock ups. That's life. After all, we are only human. I'm actually glad you made the mistake and admitted to it rather than just editing it out. Shows you are "real" and human". Great job and the fact you can get up and carry on shows professionalism. Once again, well done and keep up the good work.

[@IzzytheBricky]

Really like that saying mate👌 what are you doing in Poland mate? Really appreciate the support buddy and you enjoyed the video 🤜🤛 again, thanks so much buddy! Hope you had a brilliant weekend 💪

[@terrystephens1102]

Great job, Izzy, you have a good team smashing it out 👌👌👏👏👏👏❤️

[@IzzytheBricky]

Thanks Terry 💪

[@jp6975]

As with the other comments... appreciate the honesty in showing the mistake and the rectification. I was ripping my hair out earlier this year when doing the 1st course (!!!) Of my garden room. A local brickie who's helped me getting footings squared and poured told me my bond was all wrong so I ripped it all out a relaid the lot. Then, I made a gauge with too much sand and it was a different colour when dried. Ripped all that out as well. So it's OK for DIY'ers to make loads of errors - as the pros make the odd one too. I'll not worry too much about more mistakes as I progress (as long as they're spotted)!

[@IzzytheBricky]

Thank you very much mate appreciate it and glad you enjoyed the video and honestly Bloody hell mate sounds like you had a nightmare there 😂 hope you got it all sorted out in the end!

[@ringstinga]

It takes balls to stand up in front of a camera and admit you made a mistake ! You could have easily edited all that out and we would have none the wiser ! So bravo young man for being so upfront and honest! That in my book shows your professionalism and the way you sorted out the minor hiccup . At the end of the day you are only human and these things happen ! Great to see Drew back on the team, I think with the guys you have around you now things will only get better for your business and keeping it 100% real will be a confidence booster for any future clients . Keep up the good work.

[@IzzytheBricky]

Cheers buddy, that's what I said to Charlie, but thought best show it, as I'm far from perfect 😂 Yea nice to see that Drew is back, he's mainly just working for the company I sub to now, but he'll be with me for a bit of the time 💪 Thanks so much Jim, appreciate the support and comment 🤜🤛 hope your doing well mate!

Last year on site in London I made a mistake tracking the bond for the oversail of a concrete balcony parapet and the bond ended up header stretcher on a movement joint and I had to take two days' worth of work down...

Your audio is out of sync. Because you're using an external mic you will have to sync them up. so before every take you should do an indicator, like 1.2.3, or a clap. this allows you to sync the audio and cut that part out of the video once it is synced. Good video as always :)

If cavity-wall insulation is to be used , it can ONLY be installed from the VERY START of construction of the cavity-walls and there SHOULD be a LARGE air space gap in-between the face of the insulation and the OUTER WALL inside the cavity ; this includes an air space gap in between the face of the insulation and the cavity-wall-tie drip points which are in the centre of the cavity.
