Sorry to read about your client Mike, that's very sad. On the driveway block cutting and measuring - your lad is just nailing it job by job, I put it down to the training myself! Thanks for the tutorial Justin, even a thicko like me understood it. Would never attempt anything like it myself though, but so good to understand and appreciate the care that 'most' guys take to do the job properly!

About the glasses steaming up while sawing, I can recommend a couple things! If the exhaust from the respirator is steaming you up, you can try the 3M Cool Flow respirator, which has the exhaust port only at the very bottom by your chin. This helps keep the hot humid air away from your glasses. The other option is glasses that are either more open or less open than you're used to. If they're more open around the sides, they are less protective, but they will allow more ventilation to prevent fogging. If they're less open, like the gasketed glasses from 3M or Milwaukee, then they're tight to your face and won't allow as much exhaust in. I agree that foggy glasses are a safety hazard. Keep up the good work!!!

[@brickrightbuildinglandscaping]

Brilliant thankyou for that 👍

[@anthonyhaines8543]

Mike was here, and now he was gone, but his memory will always live on

[@brickrightbuildinglandscaping]

He was a nice man Pops with a great sense of humour 👍

Looks great Justin, the lads doing a damn fine job too. With the way the weather has been it looks like I'll be wrapping up for the winter and finishing in the spring now. I know you get your plant from Travis Perkins, I do too and I found them to be great. The guys in Pontyclun are brilliant, very helpful and nothing is too much trouble for them. Regards, Gareth

[@brickrightbuildinglandscaping]

Hi Ga Yea mike in pontyclun is a good guy tp always been good to us over the years . Enjoy the winter off ga 🤣👍👍

[@Theprince972]

Great videos guys, keep up the good work

[@brickrightbuildinglandscaping]

Ta v much 👍 👌

[@michaelformby6958]

Where did you learn about inboard cutting? Curious because on your older videos you didn’t do that.

[@brickrightbuildinglandscaping]

Marshalls inspect our work and its then that pointed it out to me so been doing it ever since

[@michaelformby6958]

I saw a video not long ago by Brockstone Landscapes explaining this. Take a look for some top tips. You should see his work it’s incredible.

[@brickrightbuildinglandscaping]

Yes Matty is very good at what he does top of the game 👍

[@johnward182]

Hi mate Lovely job pal ❤❤ I great tutorial mate for sites and pro,s pal ,i chuckled cos you got the same dealt / sthill saw mind you we got 3 9 amp batteries cos they don’t last do they in the dewalt , the sthill is never used now !!!! Far is coming on great mate , a cut off saw is a hard tool to master mate ? I must say we have invested in a dry cut off bench saw , IQTS 244 it’s a game changer mate cuts so quick it’s hard to keep up with the cuts , it’s steeped up our time 50% on cuts ! Not that I’m involved now , thinking of you in this weather pal , hope you keep out of it and let the lads do it !!! ❤❤ keep safe and well my friend and all the best to the lads ,

[@brickrightbuildinglandscaping]

Alright John Yea fra is motoring along to be fair now. Yea the sthil saw is more or less redundant now unless we cut say concrete John. That saw ive seen lads from Holland using a similar one to cut bricks no water or dust which is brilliant isn't it. Weather is crap but hay ho time of year mate especially here rains all the bloody time wales never be out of water 💧. Hope your well and not doing to much . Give my besr to the family and your lads . Great post as ever thanks John take things easy Justin 👍 ❤️❤️🙌

[@markbriers4302]

Good job boys, is Daton enjoying the work now ? I’m 52 and I still enjoy this work, it’s great you can train your boys up Justin.

[@brickrightbuildinglandscaping]

Thanks Mark Dayton is still young and finding his feet mate so time will tell if the job is right for him mate 👍

[@brickrightbuildinglandscaping]

Yea you spotted it lee 🤣🤣 .Fra is doing great we work very well together never a bad word between us hes brilliant lee 🙌

[@Dave.I.make.stuff.I.fix.stuff.]

The 'small pavers' is always a good call. It's a bit of a pain if you get called back to replace a cracked one. Good job guys 👍

[@brickrightbuildinglandscaping]

Thanks Dave 👍

[@soa324]

Hello Mate, nice one. Where did summer go..?

[@brickrightbuildinglandscaping]

Long gone now unfortunately mate i hate the winter months horrible

[@Jim_Newlands]

Stunning job, Justin. 👍How's the workload looking these days? Got any extension work or are you sticking to the hard landscaping side of things now?

[@brickrightbuildinglandscaping]

Hi Jim Thanks mate and hope all is good with you lads . Usually landscaping these days but i do have a few extensions to price but i dont do em for pennies anymore Jim . Id like to do a few so see what happens. Thanks Jim mate 👍

[@kennethbrucecox1143]

Hi, great instructional video. Sine I’ve watched are more to do with the presenter performing than giving out direct information. You don’t do that. One thing I’d appreciate advice on is that you didn’t lay the blocks slightly above the finished level and use a wacker plate with a dusting of kiln-dried sand to lower and lock the blocks. Is that because you’ve used limestone chips rather than sharp sand under the blocks?

[@brickrightbuildinglandscaping]

@kennethbrucecox1143 Ken you get me wrong I'm just a normal guy sharing information I've no big ego im as humble as they come .I think I share more information than a lot on youtube but I respect your opinion no issue with it .As for your question paving was layed higher and wacked with sand on top as you said 👍🙌

[@kennethbrucecox1143]

Many thanks for clearing that up, Mike. I’ve done a couple of minor block laying jobs in the past and made a bit of a pig’s ear of it. This time I’ve got a whole drive to re-lay after the original job (newly done by a previous owner when we bought the house ten years ago) has sunk and broken up). Your excellent videos have made me much more confident of doing a proper job….

[@brickrightbuildinglandscaping]

@kennethbrucecox1143 Hi Ken My name is Justin so you Ken. If the video has helped you as intended I am glad to help you out. Good luck with the driveways hope it goes well 👍

[@kennethbrucecox1143]

Cheers, Justin (sorry for getting your name wrong!). I’m confident of getting it right now. As with everything, preparation is the key….

I find a face shield the best way instead of googles, i dont wear hearing protection cos i got hearing aids so dosnt interfere to much with mask

[@brickrightbuildinglandscaping]

Hmmm face shield not a bad idea that thanks 👍

[@paulperrin2152]

2mm to 3mm gap in total??

[@brickrightbuildinglandscaping]

Yea man or 2.5 mm if your being particularly paul 🤣👍

[@nickaf5262]

youre giving too many secrets away

[@brickrightbuildinglandscaping]

I no think your right there 👍

[@Shifty761989]

How come you haven’t laid the pavers on sharp sand out of curiosity?

[@brickrightbuildinglandscaping]

We find it a way better job to lay on 6mm chippings much better job all round 👍

[@nigelhaines7900]

The head shields are good to use instead of glasses Justin they don"t steam up you can get them at screw fix

[@brickrightbuildinglandscaping]

That sounds great Nig appreciate it 👍

[@williambutler6317]

Did you use a mat in your wacker plate .

[@brickrightbuildinglandscaping]

No i dont bother William myself. We just add a thick layer of kiln sand and that protects the paving 👍

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

Good solid advice lads .🤙🏾🤙🏾 Sorry to hear about your customer 🥺🧱👍🏽

[@brickrightbuildinglandscaping]

Thanks Steve yea was very sad cheers mate 👍

[@joshgale7186]

I’m currently on a block paving job at the moment and i started the cuts today. Your method for cutting in the border was really helpful and im going to try it tomorrow instead of the way i have been doing it. However, i am laying herringbone so will be slightly different but im still gonna give it a go. Cheers for the quality information. I’ve watched a few of your videos and they have helped me to be more efficient and pick up some fantastic tips!!

[@brickrightbuildinglandscaping]

Thats great glad we could help Josh good luck with it mate 👍 😀
