I would never presume to give you advice, lovely job so far. However you've have to build a Pizza oven and a BBQ maybe a bar as well with draught beer on tap. 🤣🤣. I need to look back at your flat roof build as I am going to do something similar with my garage sometime. Keep up the good work.

Wish I had a fraction of your energy! My visits to the chiropractor has indicated that I need to do 5 hours a day instead of the 8 or 10. So I’ve had a day off as it’s Father’s Day - enjoyed the family and going out for Sunday Lunch. Now relaxing watching my favourite KZbin channel. You guys are just great and like some other channels have made a major contribution to upping my DIY standards - now if you just send me your Duracells I must just get enough energy to carry on. Great vid and thanks for the time to film/edit and post. Kindest regards Mike 👍🏻

11:10 when you replace your tape measure unn curl it fully and spray it with silicone lubricant spray as you retract it back in. My current stanley classic 5m powerlock is used each day and over 10 years old, the silicone spray helps stop dust and dirt adhering and water rusting it. It gets sprayed about once a month. Indeed the powerlock tape I had before was even older and only replaced because a light fingered plumber stole it.

Hi if you put the container on the opposite side not near fence and have the parking space next to new you could put a roor coming of container over car parking space. I have just put in raised bed in my garden. I put them on concrete plitlnth and 3 8x2 treated timber on top looks very good and easy on the back when gardening.

You definitely need to speak to fellow youtuber matty from brockstone landscapes. He's seems a great chap and sure he'd give you advice on cutting porcelain and what blades and buffers to us. He cuts most of his slabs with a normal stihl grinder even mitres. All i can suggest dont bother going with sleepers as a raised flower bed, as a gardener myself for nearly 20yrs, no matter what you try to protect the wood on the inside they will still rot faster then you think, far to much moisture in flowerbeds. Matching brick to the chimney stack instead would give better continuity to the garden, I know labour intensive but cheaper in the longterm. Looking forward to see how this progresses.

Just so you know shipping containers actually exceed the permitted height to eaves of 2.5m so you do need to get planning. They are 2.56m if I remember correctly. There are minimum distances they can be placed to boundaries as well. Might save you in the long run from a complaint.

Honestly mate, don't mess with the Porcelain tiles, just get a pro tiler in to do it. The tiles are expensive and the good kit to work with them even more so. The guy who did my floors said that the hand tile cutter he was using was nearly £1k and I can believe that judging by the some of the prices I've seen on some of the Marcrist tools I've seen at my local tile supplier. You've got to ask yourself 'am I going to make money with tool'

If & when you get to relax, in what sounds like what's going to be a fantastic garden , do yourself a favour & despite others' comments, get artificial grass. It is so much easier to maintain/practical with the doog/kids, giving you time to relax. Do the base yourself to save money & if you can avoid a joint you can fit the grass too, again saving money. But if you need a joint please get a pro to do(no disrespect) as it's this that makes or break the lawn. Best thing I've ever done in iur garden & I've had both & im in a similar situation ie kids, dog, lack of time etc

I suggest you use a decent astro turf instead of grass Adam. Easy to maintain/ clean ,especially with having a dog. Hard to tell from the drone footage but I reckon half the proposed grass area wouldn't see any sun over winter ( not we get any) ,it would end up full off moss
