[@dob7184]

Some of the H&S on these Jobs

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

😐

[@riptiz]

Might I suggest getting some little airbags, probably would have lifted the beam for you when you needed to get above the slate etc. I know hindsight is a great thing. Great job trying to make a silk purse from a pigs ear.😊

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

They would have been perfect 😩🧱👍🏽

[@jamescarid3448]

Do the concrete lintels have steel in them? Great job.

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

They do James Thanks 🧱👍🏽

[@davidstanley5298]

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

😬 I’ll check 🧱👍🏽

[@Joe74854]

Quick question ,won’t that dpc tray sag in the cavity ,btw that lintel proved a swine to get in

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

It certainly was and no it won’t 🧱👍🏽

[@markhep]

Kingston 👋👍

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

🧱👍🏽

[@Lynnpjjbdndji]

Wooden windows were part of the structural integrity of the house ... PVC windows are not ...

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

Yes

[@nigel1964]

Evening all just hope it works tonight

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

😁🙌🏽🧱👍🏽

[@ljd8520]

I notice you gents just use the tip of the strongboy , is that OK, I tend to mess about getting it stabbed all the way through the wall,, but then the ones I hire are mostly bent so the inner leaf is not getting g full support ? Any tips here ?

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

They’re not designed for that . They are designed to keep the acrows away from the wall to allow more room to work 🧱👍🏽

[@ferjarvis2841]

Why was there no lintel above that window, was it like that when it was built?

[@jjfarrell9349]

There was an arch which should have taken most of the weight, and the original wooden frames would have been structural which would also help take weight. Replace it with a non-load-bearing window and damage the arch while you're doing it, and you've got trouble.

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

👍🏽👍🏽

[@martin2466]

Who is the Lady, observing proceedings at 31.06.? The next door neighbour - presumably...?

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

Ah it is our customer chatting at the end of the job 😁🧱👍🏽

[@sgtmark8844]

Any reason you used the concrete lintel instead of a steel one . Cheers

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

Big span unstable wall we can pack it up tight 🧱👍🏽😁

[@nigeats65]

How is the other Porch going...? The one at home...?

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

Painfully slow 😔🧱👍🏽

[@markrichardson5295]

Why has Alex got a hivis on yet Steve hasnt??

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

Because that’s what we pulled out of the draw that day 😎🧱👍🏽

[@michaelcottam2764]

Knowing the weight of the lintel and Steve’s health, why on earth didn’t you guys hire a Genie ?

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

Where would it go ?

[@janitia]

why did your porch fail?

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

It’s explained in the previous videos

[@Michael-j7n9m]

Alex had his weetabix that morning

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

That’s my boy 😍🙌🏽🧱👍🏽

[@Michael-j7n9m]

💪💪💪💪

[@michaeldoxey1240]

Your son needs to hit the weights.

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

No he doesn’t

[@janitia]

tat music noise is so irritating miss the talking as have to turn volume off when its on. rather have silence than that noise

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

🙄

[@martin2466]

Chaps, 10ft 6x4 is that all.....? Some of the pre-cast and reinforced, Boot lintels we use to put in, would put that minnow in the shade.... Those "Bas*ard - boots", were nothing to boast about, they are part of the reason I now walk with a stick. Was that arch a "relieving arch".? or was it just relieved to see you? Pukka video as always chaps. Carry on - and be careful out there on sites. 😁👍🧱🔨

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

😬😁😁🧱👍🏽

[@pat_link_]

It's brilliant video. I missed the live due to work, but it was nice to watch after a long day. If there was a TV show named after Steve and Alex it would be the " Lintel King's" 🤜🧱🤛

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

Cheers Pat thanks for that 😁🧱👍🏽
