Double storey extension with squint bricks

[@ДмитрийСнегирёв-т8к]

Hello, Freemason(masson))))) Greetings from Russia! I myself was once a bricklayer, laid very well and beautifully - clients were waiting for me for up to a year. I still love the beautiful work of masons. Well done!!! And the real work is what we have in Russia, what you have in England)) The same metal hooks for tying blocks with bricks)))

[@foundationgood123]

Thank you brother, from England. Our wether in winter isn’t as severe as yours we just get rain and mud😆

[@ДмитрийСнегирёв-т8к]

@@foundationgood123 ))) I live in the South of Russia, it's been raining for a week. The temperature is from -5 to +5. How are you))) A month ago, snow piled up by a meter and it was -20. And so warm))) I envy you. You have a football championship going on right now, and we have a pause-it's boring. I'm watching your championship. I'm rooting for MU))

Beautiful finish ,well done Chris.

[@stuglover1526]

Cracking video Chris. Those angled corners are excellent. Another masterclass 👍🏻

[@foundationgood123]

Thank you, glad you like them!👍

[@paulc5569]

Great job .the only thing missing from your video's is the owners at the end to praise you on what a good job you did 😎

[@EcoMan-te4vu]

Great job Chris- those squints look great and I'm betting they cost less than £7 each

[@aroopsingh8650]

Smashed it Chris. Love watching your videos

[@AnointedMaster]

Brilliant Video Chris always a pleasure to watch and learn.

[@mattcartwright8272]

Very nice Chris. No doubt needs a lot of patience on a build like that. And then a dollop more for the way the Scaffs bullied your brickwork!

[@sevansaeeidi230]

brilliant job mate👍👍👍👏👏👏

[@nicolexxxxxx]

Hey, great work! What type of resin do you use when making the squint bricks?

[@alancraigie7951]

Wish there were more like yourself.

[@foundationgood123]

Awe thank you👍

[@hotpoker4212]

If the frog is built downwards,and is not filled completely,will cause weakness in the weight distribution,

[@Bricklayertomknez08]

[@Martin37vg]

Chris can you tell me what the bricks are you are using for this job as i I after some for a small extension and they look a good match to my house. Are they 73s?

[@foundationgood123]

Ecostock Facing Brick 65mm Chelsea Smoked Red

[@Martin37vg]

@@foundationgood123 Thanks for that info but need 73s Back on the hunt

[@newlinerealboi3434]

How did you join the squint brick cuts? Looks great

[@foundationgood123]

End of the day remove the profile and joint up then reposition the profile

[@EcoMan-te4vu]

my guess is resin with a dusting of brick dye.....

[@foundationgood123]

Sorry I read wrong, yes its resin and brick dust

[@hotpoker4212]

Great job Chris,🇮🇪 KP d videos coming, top man,

[@foundationgood123]

Hi Chris just a question stroke observation shouldn’t there be a vertical Dpm cut in the new cavity of porch where it joins existing house 👍

Yes but not Necessary as its a porch

Some lunch break admiration from us both on the Whiston job. Nice craftmanship on those squint corners 👌

[@foundationgood123]

Haha awesome, thanks bro 👍

[@JTLM_48442]

What kind of line are u using?

[@ryc650]

Very best and tidy. Not the easiest of jobs

[@petercross8871]

Hi Chris, I have been asked to watch a video of yours, where you say that you use a CAT but are unable to find a Gas pipe. But the Guy has not told me which video. I am not sure how long ago you said this so if you have sorted things now, no problem. If you have not, FOC, I maybe able to give you some guidance . I coach Cable avoidance to utility operatives, assess trainers and carryout incident investigation. kind regards Pete

Hi its ths one kzbin.info/www/bejne/pafIZJWZZbitiJY

[@johnholness1470]

are those bricks smaller than existing has joints seem to be not matching the higher you go

[@foundationgood123]

Yes the house are imperial bricks 73mm compared to the 65mm new bricks

[@petersimao3662]

Hi what resin did you use ?

[@richardmarley3064]

Always gauge from blues

[@biblebasics100]

DPC!

[@magnets1000]

how did you fix what the scaffolders broke?

[@foundationgood123]

ground out and pointed it

[@richardmarley3064]

Get a course of bricks over hem headers or they move

[@biblebasics100]

soldiers!!!!!

[@biblebasics100]

soldiers!!!!!

[@1sttigertiger426]

I still think the frog should face down. If it is facing up, then water can collect in case there is missing mortar. What is the consequence of facing the frog down?

[@wumpty93]

Weaker wall as the frog doesn't get filled up properly, as a result it puts the weight of the building on the narrow edges of the brick.

[@mattcurtis3019]

Blakes Mate come on

[@foundationgood123]

haha yes, used them on the front and ali box on the squints

[@OKB1133]

You were very calm re heavy-handedness of scaffolders. It's a skin after all, not a Victorian solid brick wall! Bricks are good match for house though and look nice.
