im hoping this is the start of me being back.
I forgot how long it takes to upload and edit and im wondering why and how I did it before.
These doors are the best IMO and here's how to fit them with as little fuss as possible .
hope you enjoy.

Wow… looking to install a bifold in my Southern California home. The local aluminum bifold company that makes these in house is quoting $11,000. Another locks company for PVC style 8k. Checked the UK direct website for similar size 2400 British lb. Crazy. Jealous. Awesome video btw. Very informational. We’ll done.

Unfortunately there is no ball park either, a price mentioned today, wouldn’t be relevant in a week at the rate things are going. Then I’ve the issue of a potential customer saying, why am I quoted this price when you said it was this price on KZbin 🤷‍♂️ I was filling the vans for £80 this time last year, today I can squeeze 130 in them, all the builders merchants are increasing prices monthly, a timber pack in leeds will be around 45% more expensive in London. Too many variables to even mention cost tbh

I really like your videos and the way you explain things, I really do. Just a couple of tips to improve your videos because I think you deserve: - change rhe microfone. When you are talking your voice is very low and it comes up and down a lot, when you use a drill is way louder because the microfone is closer to it. Just check a couple of them and see what suits you better. - stand for the phone, it is 20£ and you leave the phone in a better position when you need help in the video or need to leave the phone on the floor, there are models who can even be grapped in a stick usefully for medium high works (the heist of your chest or so). The last one, ask your camera to have a coffee before the videos, just teasing, he is not a movie maker, but need to be more "awake" sometimes. Take care mate. P.s: lovely feature the blinds, they don't get dirty but I hope they work forever because fixing them is not a easy job neither. 😉

Would 450 DPC wrapped under the joist then in front of the osb and then under your bi-fold be the best thing to stop any rising damp from the patio and stop any future rotting? I take it you’ll be Wapping in breather membrane then cladding but what’s the finish detail under the bifold cill?

I've a slightly unrelated question for you! On one of your previous video's you install the kingspan roofing panels, then you used the metal trim panels to create the corner covers wrapping around the complete corner. My question is which bloody video is this shown on as I've watched loads and loads but can't find where the sodding thing is shown. I've installed the kingspan panels on my roof and want to give it a good finished look. Any help would be greatly appreciated 🙏.

Question: In many of your builds you install opening "letterbox windows" for additional ventilation. Can I ask where you get them from? Most suppliers (including Express Bifolds) quote minimum dimensions of 500mm height. 500mm is huge for a letterbox window. Where do you source ~H300mm letterbox openers? Thanks.

Hi Liam. Just in the planning stages of a 7x4m garden room (with your build pack). For the footings, would you consider using Postcrete sacks for the M24 rods, or is this not strong enough? Postcrete is the simplest solution for me since I am building this alone(!). Thanks
