Don’t know why I’m so bothered by the lack of updates and changes. Disappears as he is doing the countdown (actually genuinely worried for his mental health etc), comes back from skiing having not finished - the major promise to us all…because “he knew he had to and shame on the doubters”…comes back without a word re having to be in…and now no BATH! I’m at a loss..where’s the accountability?? (I am being facetious here) but honestly…we bought into his transparency etc…and now it’s just ignored? Say something.

I guess he was giving us time to sign up to his newsletter and checking for updates behind that paywall. Since I'm taking a total guess here... Most of us didn't buy into that thing he's gonna upload for a while and rince and repeat the formula

@richardhardiman5973 have to admit I am fully aligned with ur feedback. This post seemed very disorganised. Before Xmas he was going on about his bath and the complexities of installing it. Now out of the blue, bath completely gone without any explanation and he is now looking at installing a shower!!!! We used to have daily updates where I could see some tiny progress from one video to another. Now, we get one video a week and I honestly don’t see what has happened in terms of progress from the previous week. It is a complete shamble!!!!!

It's so bad that I am now convinced this is not a viable building and just a KZbin Ad revenue. This building will not be habitable the way he has gone about it and it just shows that he has zero trade experience.

I apologise in advance if you will find this comment rude, but why does the creator need to give to any of you guys an update about his life, it’s his life and he is choosing what he will put out there. If I were you I would just move on. As you said he might not be very well with his mental health and I don’t believe comments like that will help. I recently watched some of his videos and now I am seeing all the negative comments. I am sure at some point everything will make sense to you that watch regularly 😊

50mm is nothing. I'd like to know the u-value calculation. Not being a dick, just don't think it will meet building regulations, which will be required if it's going to be habitable.

Told you about all that stuff 4 weeks ago, you’d have saved yourself a lot of hassle. Done a lot of stuff backwards. Always put the floor down first then build the structure on top. Also insulate between the joists so you don’t build the floor up too high, costing headroom

if you hadnt done so much preaching in your videos, about your good attitude etc, for litterally weeks lol, i wouldn't be so bothered by how you didn't explain a thing when something has clearly gone wrong. it just makes it seem like you think you are better than your audience. I'm gonna unsub cause I dont think this is going to be compelling to watch anymore

Yes insulate between the joists is a better approach. Although he has so many additional 4x2 noggins between joists that looks difficult....

@nickh4585 10 ай бұрын

This seems strange, ply floor, insulation boards on top so the soft insulation foam will be walked on even though there’s another layer on top. Surely this will give a non solid floor and will compress the foam over time making it less effective and also reducing the floor height leading to gaps up to everything. I’m just a DIY’er so maybe completely wrong.

Now, you don't owe any of us anything, and that's fair enough, I will continue to watch anyway. But I think it would be the decent thing to do to at least acknowledge the people you had worrying.

Chris, where do you get your wall insulation boards from, also do you recommend any from previous experience? Every merchant tries to charge £150 delivery, other than places like Wickes & B&Q that are treble the price

@Jake-po8ej 10 ай бұрын

Not Chris obviously but personally for pir I either use cut price insulation or get them from selco/ local builders merchants. Usually much cheaper than the big brand shops. If you're after a lot of it might be worth looking at seconds.

I hope you're well Chris, good to see you back posting. Sometimes it's good to take a break and get some perspective, which I’m assuming is what's happened. Seems like you're making progress now you've obviously decided against the bath (good call). Would love a brief update on what's happened and where you're at now with the build and you personally, have you moved in etc. Might keep the neggy comments at bay. ❤
