'I want to come to Australia...' | BRICKLAYING AUSTRALIA

[@corkcityireland9287]

Nice work mate 👍 lovely retro old school looking bricks 👌 keep at it mate slow downs happen all the time, not to worry as a good bricky will always find work 🤘

[@DerpChar]

Recently just moved to Melbourne from the UK. What I can say is every build is timber frame, so it’s all profiles set up from the existing house rather than working it out from the footing. The bricks are bigger, the wheelbarrows are bigger and the mixer is bigger😂 it is very different to the UK, and it seems almost more robotic😅

[@reggates5205]

The West is very similar to the UK ,not sure about everything being bigger ,not over here .No timber frames just facebrick and blocks internal.

[@whitecliff4361]

It’s all sweet until you get stuck on the blocks 😢

[@aussie8114]

Good idea on jobs like this to leave the client a bag of sand and a note on the cement brand and mix ratio used. This can be helpful down the track if / when some cracks appear. Good to include some movement joints in the walls too, though you can never be completely sure where cracks may appear over time. Been there done that and even though you think the strip footings are a good size cracks still often happen in these long garden walls.

Good advice mate but… there’s bricklayers and then there’s people who think they’re bricklayers. The last thing we need here is more unskilled labor. Keep going mate you’re doing well.Stick with the high quality work where you have to think,so much more satisfying..

[@tgward313]

good work -- a light pressure clean without any acid would bring out some nice colour of the old reds although I do like the filmy finish as well

[@nathanialmccabe5064]

Is the work over there more prices work ? Or do most get hourly rates ?

[@nathankenny9516]

Hey great job. Just wandering what you have done for footing, depth with and or mesh in footing? Cheers

[@bricksbyty]

I didn't do the footings for this job so I'm not sure!

[@fucxkxows5416]

​@bricksbyty hi ty, I know this is a question like how longs a piece of string but roughly what are the wages for a brickie per year?

[@chrisyates4509]

Think of bringing the family over where would you recommend to go ? I’m a bricky so hopefully work won’t be a problem 15years experience commercials and private thinking Perth but not sure 🤔

[@bricksbyty]

Right now in Melbourne it's slow at the moment so maybe not here.

[@chrisyates4509]

@ appreciate your reply ty will scope it out properly first 🫡

[@GaetanoCostanza]

How do you go about going to Australia.,

[@StriatedSternum]

The country is basically India, with Chinese and Africans mixed in. Kalergi plan in full swing.

[@yuichi733]

Hello mate! You always produce high-quality work! By the way, I have a question. I have 5 years of experience in Japan, and I will go to TAFE to get a certificate for brick block work. In that case, how much salary could I expect? Of course, I’ve searched for common Australian salaries, but I would like to know specifically how much money I could make. Thank you for reading my comment!

[@trentwalsh8168]

Concrete sooooo slow im lucky to work 4 days... some days we pour .6 hahaah Whats a regular brickie wage?

[@bricksbyty]

Oh that's a shame! As far as wages go it depends on a few factors such as the type of work you're doing and what your employer can pay you.

[@reggates5205]

$3 a brick in the west
