Building a UK house extension in 2023: Foundation Brickwork

In episode 8 we start 2 new amazing projects in Whitely Bay & Sleekburn/ Ashington, getting both buildings up to damp proof course. We call back into the extension that we build on top of a garage to lay the special cill bricks & take a walk around the almost completed project.
Over the next few episodes we will be taking you with us onsite on both extensions in this video.

Why do English houses have such low ceilings

[@CraigToddBrickwork]

Most do, its the standard on new builds. Some older houses have lovely tall ceilings though 🙂
