I'm from Australia, had no idea who Fred Dibnah was so I you tubed him and spent all day Sunday watching Fred Dibnah documentarys amazing fellow, really enjoyed it.

[@michaelcannon2434]

Hes a legend mate

[@andrewmounsey5030]

I grew up watching Fred's documentaries. A few months after he died the history channel did a weekend of 24hr back to back repeats of all his documenties and history programmes. I spent all weekend lying on the couch and must have seen them all at least twice; time well spent!

[@mattress7005]

Nice one boys, what a guy Fred was. RIP Mr Dibnah 🙏

[@marcuscicero9587]

[@neilsmart78]

[@thehighlander4771]

So glad a found this page I’m 33 years old and bricky to trade got diagnosed with ppms 4 years ago and in a wheelchair now I don’t half miss it loving all the videos mate keep up the good work 👍👍

[@reddyreddy2618]

The brickwork on my 1960s house is pretty bad, as is the whole estate. i stopped using the front door as the front of the house is the worst area and it was worrying me every time i looked at it. however its no where near as bad as this house! so even if im not able to fix it myself some one with the right skills will be able to. im pretty practical so going to have a few practice runs on the garden wall to see how i get on. i suffer with bad anxiety and daft as it might seem to some this video has eased a whole lot of worry for me. ive watched loads of your vids now so cheers for all the tips.

[@nickster3008]

Wow the legend Fred ... ahh mate what a brilliant job to be doing . He put chimneys exactly where they should fall. True ENGLISHMEN WITH BRAINS JUST LIKE YOU AND YOUR FATHER. Nicky the brickie

This is what happens when you use sand and cement to repoint buildings built out of lime.

[@whatupboy100]

He was such a legend

[@rhysthebricky2171]

[@waynehughes603]

[@tommyb5244]

[@seanedwards1968]

Keep the vids going Stu , you are all doing a cracking job!! Well done pal

[@karloflaherty]

great job lads

[@TYLERCONSTRUCTION]

Nice work Dibnah Blinders. 👍👍

[@tristanmccauley2318]

Top job gents, love the matching hats.

[@spaldychops]

The bricks are failing because it's cement mortar and the water is going into the brick rather than the mortar where it is able to pass through and evaporate back into the atmosphere. All the cracks in the mortar are letting water into the bricks where they'll absorb it and then it freezes the fronts off in the winter...any excess will also be going into the walls and cause excess moisture to appear as damp. As long as there's cement on that wall it's always going to leak - if you look with a x10 lens then you will see tiny parts around the mortar where water ingress can occur. By all means not bashing your work, I enjoy seeing it - but putting cement mortar on that wall is the worst thing you could possible do - what looks original is definitely not, its through years and years of cement repairs failing and repeating the same process.

[@Stucrompton1]

cheers arran, i thioght to do a weaker mix as the rule never make a mix stronger than the material but i wil add lime to the next mix, any preference on ix ratio? thanks

[@spaldychops]

@@Stucrompton1 thanks for replying - yeah absolutely agree in regards to softer mortar. The ratio would be 2.5-sand to 1- NHL 2 (natural hydraulic lime - NHL 3.5 would be ok if you have that). Wet the bricks up first as it'll stick in better. Leave it for a day/afternoon depending on the weather and then push it into the bricks and come back an hour later and then you should be able to gently rub it up with a small wire brush to open the pores and expose some aggregate to finish. NHL has a chemical set so aftercare is relatively easy once the initial set has formed. Hope this helps.

[@iamkjb1]

One of those jobs where you know anything will be better than the original.

[@joshthurtell221]

What’s everyone’s thoughts on getting an apprenticeship into bricklaying at 22? I’ve been a brickies labourer for a few years now but wanting to move up. Am I too late?

[@johnwaby4321]

Some nice tricky brick replacement there .. Looks good 👍👍👍

[@loupiscanis9449]

Cheers Stu Dibnah .

[@wallstbets4865]

The dad knows about his craft no doubt about it

[@eddjordan2399]

steeple jacking is a dyeing trade. well it always was. KC is nailing it in that hat top work,

[@frankieob100]

Excellent work 👍

[@arjones57]

Ear protection, yes. I didn’t see eye protection on KC when he was using the bulldog to break out the brick.

[@tomharris5845]

Always one

[@mikeadamson6696]

A very useful video . Some tradesmen may not tackle such a job as its too small , however its something that its all too common on old houses due to wear and tear and abuse

[@paulslann3755]

Fine Restoration job would never know that you had been .great match on the brick .could thomson waterseal the whole wall to protect from further damage . Just my opinion great work as usual .not many would take that on .pull their nose at it .👍

Fred’s a Bit of a hero of mine , Fred would have you putting fly ash in the mix 😀

[@annab6245]

Dobra robota👍

[@michaelcannon2434]

Old fred would be proud lads

[@JBE]

Fred Dibnah what a man he was. The certainly don't make them like that anymore.

[@_tmmy_]

That man was truly a national treasure to a lot of people, not just in the Bolton / Manny area. I really liked how he demolished chimneys by chiselling out half the brickwork at the bottoms and wedging scrap timber and rubble and then burning the whole lot. Was quite satisfying to see that done in such a unique way.

[@pauljack174]

Good video as always! 👍 what's the rough cost of a repair job like that? Have a few spalled bricks on my house need replacing.

[@johnrhodes3714]

Try using a recip saw with a masonry blade for taking brick out. Works well and saves mess 👌

[@IAMROSIE]

Life of brickies yeah

[@randomlyme9617]

Love this ❤️

[@charlyconstrucciones229]

maestro que buen refacción de ladrillo saludos de Perú

The league of Extra ordinary brickies!

[@keithwebb658]

They look likeold imperial size bricks. Nice to see you retain the original bond. Not sure about Jang's Hand mixing technique 😁 Nice job guys.

[@telosfd]

Nice video. I like these kind of repairs. What is the reason that these bricks became loose ?

[@olliebull6052]

Do you just do it by eye on patch work?and whats the best way to put mortor on the top wen your sliding brick into a wall

[@ivegotaporscheandalambo3318]

Shoulda had bike horn blowing at end. Tip top lads

[@andrewpalij4691]

Oops, sand and cement 😪 wrong.

[@aplasterersday]

Good!

[@trevorhayes1079]

Love the cheese cutters

[@foundationgood123]

A bit of "ecky thump" in store for us!

[@A.AofSpades]

These the best kind of jobs to get.

[@markiobook8639]

What was the cause of the brick crumbling? Was it frost-thaw cycle? Or simply brick too underfired?

[@polmaclin3019]

You have dismantled the wall. Brick tied up so you can destroy the house and fall under the blockage. Before dismantling the section of the wall of the old house, you need to put a reinforcing beam over the place of parsing.

[@paulbutterworth5369]

Hi stu.love watching g.your videos I wonder if you can help I am building 2 pillars for a gate the height is 85cm the width 35cm it is a brick and half pillar struggling to work out howuch sand,cement, aggregate needed many thanks

[@deninsrmic4165]

Great video, great job, I have just few questions. This appears to be older house construction hence my pondering about mortar. What kind of have u used sand & lime or sand and cement? Would you recommend sand cement over send and lime in old constructions? Have u used reclaimed bricks or new ones? Which bricks would u use in old Victorian/Edwardian buildings if u haven’t got reclaimed ones? Thanks. Subscribed!

[@qaisali6814]

Cement and sand 1:4 . New bricks are used. If you want to used older bricks so them clean

[@barrymichaels2663]

Are you gonna use any lime with your mix?

[@simonmacdonald7645]

Hello again Stuart Fred dibnah legend 🙌 You would definitely be my house builder contractor Stuart As I know that you would be a highly qualified builder What a legend 🙌

[@acostin4004]

i'm doing exact same job replacing spalling bricks my problems are extreme suction mortar just turning mushy and dry within minutes.

[@grotekleum]

Wet the bricks well first.

[@csnelling4]

Great job the Dibnah boys 👏👏👏👍🍺🍺🍺🇬🇧

[@grvital3645]

Вподобайка 👍👍

[@sanyo1970]

Dibnah was the "MAN!" When you are filling in the joints, how come you don't use a mortar bag? Seems easier than using a small trowel to smash the mortar into the joints. I enjoy the vids.

[@mattpickford6872]

KC Shelby the baddest man in the west.👍👍

[@franciscoheredia7873]

Which 11" trowel do you recommend: ox or marshalltown? Thanks freak.

[@q9home1]

[@jaggiguru3127]

Camera is very nyc

[@stevengao8345]

[@chrisherbert595]

Would you work on one of his chimney scaffolds?

[@Estepona-kx2vr]

You were like 3 wee gangsters 😂👍

[@bender6942]

Kc hates losing rubble down those cavities 😂

[@davidainsworth]

how many bricks can you safely take out without movement?

[@jharris7407]

Why is Jangy turning the same bit of compo over , he’s supposed to turn it from one side to the other !😀true master Stu !!

[@m101ist]

I think those headers are use as bonding ties in the cavity wall. 😲

[@kylearts5095]

What trowel are you using mate and size ?

[@martynlejeune5191]

Jobs a goodun 👍🏻

[@RobBoFr]

Oh aye!

[@woodsmic]

You could have siliconed around the full door to make it match, 5 minutes and a couple of quid. "Sorry mate, not my job".

[@housesforsale6892]

what would the cost of job like this be? and how long did it take?

[@sherwin1988]

Not enough pints of ale to call this a dibnah job lads 😂🍻🍻🍻🍻

[@UndisputedRoofer]

What camera do you use stu?
