How we install ground screws for a large garden studio or other outdoor room

[@davidsteele3037]

I'm planning a garden room build in the summer so watching with great interest. I'm keeping mine below 30m² to avoid planning and building control.

[@shaunglendinning]

Very interesting so far. Looking forward to the next phase! Really like these 'Garden Studios'. cheers till next time.

[@T.E.P.]

this is soo enjoyable ... like the actual work and like the fun you guys have together .... absolutely love the downtime addition to the vids and also how it gets back to work. it's how it goes.

[@8rettb]

Great video again. Looking forward to the episode on the plastic ply panelling to the base... 👍

[@TheDAMeaning]

Next up, How to politely refuse burnt BBQ food!😂

[@uniqprojects381]

Hahaha yeah I thought that was a bit strong 😂

[@galvanizedgnome]

Nice video, Robin. I could watch you screw all day. Cheerio !🍻

[@T.E.P.]

Until I saw some philips head screws in a yard I never knew how short Robin is ..... still think he's brilliant

[@DelH555]

YES Robin this is what we are looking for👍🏻

[@billrimmer5596]

Looking forward to the build!!

[@kiers1970]

Prevents pay cheap pay twice. Excellent

[@huggy1huggy191]

keep us up todate with the next phase robin

[@hillyhindleg]

Good to see content Robin

[@andyb3331]

What would be a ballpark figure for the groundscrews on this project Robin - as up until now we have been putting in bases the traditional way - footings - trench block etc This could be a great new method for us.

[@thetallcarpenter]

I'm already envious of you and this job, 😣, and, in line with KZbin comments rules, must leave a really negative message.😝 (you know I cant mate. Gonna be a cracking job).👍

[@iwangriffiths7755]

Love this content very helpful,I thought it was old video because the camera quality

[@Oli_Hudson]

I'm with you Robin. The only cooking you can trust hygiene-wise is your own!!

[@thetessellater9163]

We've all heard the horror stories emanating from professional kitchens....

[@chekymonkey4452]

great job looking good

[@l0I0I0I0]

Ty for the vid! How many anchors can you install per hour?

[@ukconstruction]

About 3 to 6 depending on the length of ground screw and ground conditions etc

[@stighorup]

How much time should I estimate pr screw, most videos are speeeeeded up, so hard to estimate?

[@maxine2798]

They need your ear defenders for those screwing devices. Looks good!!

[@lincolnlincoln27]

good info. What brand qre these earth screws? available only in UK?

[@thorntoneventsltd]

Comparing the costs of what you did there with the screws and the cost if you did it with concrete what is the different prices

[@stephenbonin3049]

Can these screws be used in an areas that get deep frozen ground?

[@protectiongeek]

Thanks for another great video, Robin. We have a garden 'pod' (approx 5.3m x 4.3m) that was built just under two years ago and it is installed on 12 ground screws. It is absolutely solid; no problems at all. We're now hoping to add an extension to the rear of our house (bog-standard semi; built 1994) and wondering if we could build the extension off ground screws too. Has anyone had experience of this or heard of it? Is it allowed under building regs?

[@jamesbartlett5005]

Clever stuff. Do you have to radar map the ground first to avoid pipes etc

[@dplatts14]

I would have mentioned that before drilling anything into the ground like these that you call the utility companies - they have a service called 'Dial Before you Dig' or similar where you can get plans of the locations of Pipes, Gas mains, Electric Services etc.

[@timyoung8638]

What would the price comparison be if it was done in masonry?

[@krzysiek0502]

Can those screws be used for bolt in fence posts?

[@ukconstruction]

Yes with a decent shoe

[@Hertog_von_Berkshire]

Do the screws not cause the ground to heave?

[@antonyporter5045]

OK OK OK OK I`ll buy some

[@ianthompson9058]

Wonder what the cost is on this sort of thing

[@ZiyuanEnergy-Noora]

Hi, could I know how to buy it from New Zealand？

[@ZiyuanEnergy-Noora]

I wanna buy the install ground screw tool

[@ronjones9373]

Do you calculate live loads and are underground utilities being considered and located prior ?

[@3house325]

Robin, can you tell me the name of the ground screw driver please? I suspect it is an Eibenstock machine, but unsure about the exact name of it. Thank you in advance:

[@Ruben-ni7zq]

I want to use these for my decking but I’ve found my ground is full of loads of old bricks and hardcore waste. Had trouble putting an earth rod in so I don’t think these will be an option for me😭

[@TheStevenWhiting]

0:04 Blue Peter, here's some we put in earlier.

[@colinpenson9029]

Would you consider using these screws for a deck, or are they expensive?

[@ukconstruction]

Hi Colin, we use these for deck builds they are perfect, in my part 1 of How to build a deck series, I feature them look in the videos list on my channel

[@DJProjectss]

They look crazy at the beginning lol

[@brianwood5220]

Looking good Robin. Was Gill offended by your comment on not trusting home cooked food?

[@ukconstruction]

Hi Brian, Gil and I are really good mates and he knows what my humour is like!!! he is a great guy and the last person who I would offend!!! hope your well mate all the best, Robin

[@stevewilliams2413]

And another great video, garden rooms look like they are definitely on the rise in your area. What do you say if the customer offers you a coffee or tea?

[@ukconstruction]

I say yes please!!! Don't mind that kind of home cooking!!!

[@simoncrabb]

Well, I never knew screws could be so big.

[@dielauwen]

Who came up with the big toy screws?

[@ukconstruction]

Someone rich now!!!

[@llljustcallhimdave]

That opening looks like a giant has dropped a box of screws

[@clemprice1501]

Brilliant what would a price comparison be screws v concrete? Keep up the amazing work I watch in envy 😁

[@MichaelDreksler]

👍 It all comes down to money and time

[@raysmith6891]

He does mention it in another video and it’s less

[@rogercresswell1720]

I’m not keen on homemade food either except my own!

[@GlennBroadway]

But surely Oakwood Garden Rooms build the best in the country - and they just use a bit of threaded rod in a little hole with some postcrete... (sarcasm emoji)

[@peterthomas9440]

Not just any old rod...M24 zinc plated rod 🤣

[@markrobinson1458]

Must be loaded whoever this is for, not by any means in my price range,but nonetheless it'll be nice job finished 👍

[@fitzanator436]

Picked ur sausage up lol

[@JACKATTACKED]

👍

[@cr-ew8od]

You need a drone

[@TheStevenWhiting]

But its now illegal to fly in built up areas. If the house is in a big plot with no surrounding houses then you'll get away with it.

[@TheStevenWhiting]

"You might of gone to the loo and not washed your hands" he's a man, most likely.

[@TheStevenWhiting]

Unfortunately its not a DIY job then.

[@peterthomas9440]

I built mine using www.groundscrewcentre.co.uk/products.asp?code=GS-750 with extension kits (GS-EXT600/300) and a few GS-4x2PREM brackets to support 4x2 base. 16 screws in total for a 4.5 x 3.5 garden office. Just over £1k for all (separate SDS drill needed for pilot holes).

[@ChrisHarmon1]

Nice of the other guy to back up the other on the food. Kind of a dick move acting like a restaurant is any better. I'm guessing guy spewing the garbage has money while the other does not. No money=gross.

[@jimgeelan5949]

Come on Robin, two years ago 750mm ground screws in by hand rendered walls and no problems 7.5 x 4.0 shower room,lounge and gym done .com 😝

[@timyoung8638]

What would the price comparison be if it was done in masonry?
