Brilliant as always lads, I’ve got my A and E fix for the week now! I like how you went about this, its a really smart way of getting the concrete block set in place… and to think this will carry a lot of the weight of the extension when it starts being built up. Cheers, Paul 👍

Great video, full of details and intricacies, thanks for posting. It must be very hard to plan ahead all the details in your industry. I often see you digging for one thing then filling it and some time later having to dig again for something else. Our streets are like that! As soon as they redo the tarmac, one of utility companies comes and digs it up, of course they don't compact and resurface to the same standard and land settlement and potholes follow soon....

Great stuff as always. I'm a bit puzzled by the big concrete block though - why is that needed, why can't you build straight up off a ground-level footing?

Other than that "Mr Burns" for in the middle of the wall 🤣 what do you do for power and water on site? Generators and a pump truck or something else? Thanks

Enjoying this series. Genuine question, would that newly poured foundation potentially breach next doors damp proof course?

why not build the single skin wall on the footing (you’ve put in anyway) in dense block work, then use steel spreader plates to your 2 steels above (for the cavity wall above). you can then transfer some of the weight to the footing, and probably use smaller steels? maybe run it past the structural engineer?
