POURING A CONCRETE SLAB IN WINTER SATISFYING TAMPING..CONSERVATORY TO EXTENSION PT 5

[@warflair1312]

9:10 - laughed my bottom off when Ste muttered, F”@£ off, under his breath at the errant Jablite bits he cut off, then glanced at the camera. Best bit by far! 😂 Oh, and decent job as always 👌👍

Great work in awful weather! Ive just realised that i hadn't seen you using the fitted brick covers recently. Ideal at this time of year.

Work of art on that slab - unrecognisable from the nightmare you were presented with at the start! You two guys are really working so well together, great to see Dad and Son grafting away. Thank you for filming/editing/uploads - they make a great watch!

Cheers Dave 🧱👍🏽

Thank you Steve & Alex, looked great to me, I’d be happy with that 🙏🏻

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

Cheers 😁👍🏽🧱

[@barrysmith5466]

A little tip for you,cut a length of plastic dpc long enough to go wall to wall pull it tight vertically across the wet concrete and you will be able to swim the water off the wet concrete.

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

[@tomstovell7425]

Another cracking job and a treat to watch for all of us. Seems like you were up against it at times with this one but it always looks good when the slab has been poured. Look forward to the next instalment.

Good video lads, I realy look forward to watching you two. Despite the weather gods you nailed it that slab looks great I don't know why the building inspector can't just look at your videos it would save him a visit!! Once again Alex " The bulldozer " shifted all that sand, and showed whose boss. Best regards as ever Ken

Cheers Ken . Al is great 😍🧱👍🏽

Not shore if you no you can get double side water proof tap for doing DPC its brilliant and the wait of the concrete really makes it stick together

[@nevillewilson1406]

Hi Steve, is it normal for brickie to prep and pour concrete slab ?, in new zealand the slab prep is done by the builder, with a concreter doing the pour, great work, neville

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

Yes it’s quite common for small builders on small jobs . Thanks very much 🧱👍🏽

[@Mmmmetro]

Always a dodgy time to pour, weather permitting. I’ve had a few ‘re lays’ after plunging overnight temperatures, even with full protection of the slab. Heartbreaking. Feeling for you chaps.

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

Let’s hope we’ve seen the last of the sub zero temps. 🥶🤞🏼🧱👍🏽

[@Mmmmetro]

@@SteveAndAlexBuild I definitely agree S&A. Been dropping lintels in at home, finally sorted the last one, out of six, wrapped up and pinned with bubble wrap and old towels. Should be good to go after a few more days.

Great job Steve and Alex, have you not considered with all the extension slabs you carry out buying a power tamp , pay for itself in no time?

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

Absolutely not we’ve already outgrown our garage 😬🧱👍🏽

Daft question. Thought the sand needed compacting?

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

Its building sand so a quick bang with the spazzle is plenty 💪🏽🧱👍🏽

[@markh5433]

Just a quick question…. Why did you not run the brickwork flush with the house, rather than a little step back?

Saves a load of toothing and that’s where the drawing said to put it 🧱👍🏽

Great video as always. Shame there's always a wannabe BBC watchdog that feels the need to criticise the content you go to the trouble of making, editing and posting. I have to say though I was gutted when Al left the fatty bits from his bacon. I,d have swiped that if I'd been on the job 😋😎.
