You absolutely right Liam you don’t need to land each board on a joist as it is tongue and grooved and a structural product. 👍🏻

[@andycritchell868]

Still watching and learning! Looks like that hammer has a nail holder for starting nails off without having to hold them. Nice. Excellent videos, really enjoying the series.

[@kilcool01]

this is brilliant work lads, love watching them. Dingle, Ireland

[@robburgess1985]

As a time served chippy I’m impressed with the gafas Carpentry skills. I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s come from a time served back ground like myself?

[@niallrobertmoran]

Love how the chain saw gloves were packed fresh 😂

[@aharonstubbs4089]

Watch this series 3 times only just noticed the number on the post digger 😂😂

[@thegardenroomguru]

🤣don't enter mate, that's long gone🤣

[@tobyjugg6202]

John, your a bloody demon with them rods - proper perfectionist 👍👍

[@nickdemetriades335]

Was up until midnight watching this and worth every minute!!! Can’t help myself. Well done all and loving some of the questions

[@McNaughty91]

Thanks for answering my question, looking forward to seeing use standing up the wall on your own 👍💪

[@jimjulien01]

Another great video and appreciate all the time you all take to help those building their own garden rooms. So much good info provided and look forward to the next instalment. I've also noted that 6 digit number 😉

[@sussexexternalcleaning6276]

Another great video !! Thanks for all the info / tricks and tips. Very helpful

[@jonmarubbi]

Great job on the this series team, love watching the videos and hiw you gel as a team, keep it up 😊

[@bigdmed955]

Firstly I know John from childhood🤔 secondly seeing as you like Milwaukee so much J !, All my tools are RED😂. But the 12v or 18v Milwaukee "pruner" chainsaw it is a beast, either of them. Plus no gas and works in the cold fine. You will not be disappointed👍. Also quicker way to get your string square, use the 3,4,5 rule and it will be much much quicker guys

[@David.R.H]

This has got be the most detailed garden room build tutorial I have ever watched on the internets!

[@millywillbo]

Literally just watched part one and two and you drop part three, I need somewhere to keep motorbikes so getting some ideas

[@niallrobertmoran]

Thanks for answering my question - loving this series 😎 Raffle tickets bought and fingers crossed for the award ceremony 😁

[@Captjsp]

been here waiting haha. day 3 keep it up team!!

[@Ziggy94]

5 raffle tickets bought! great vid again from all the team. Need that 20k for a room so might get you to build it lol

[@nickgriffin637]

Another great video. The 100mm rule got me yesterday! Back to imperial for a bit 😂

[@astramerit]

🎉 bring on part 3 😊

[@keendnb]

I used the lumberjack wood glue without gloves..... It took nearly a week to get the black off, I even sanded my hands 🤣..... Gloves all the way from now on!

[@markhilton6379]

Thank you…. I usually go for Makita impact gold but not the cheapest, love watching your builds they’re giving loads of good tips 😃..

[@thegardenroomguru]

Thanks mate

[@jongibbs1036]

Thanks for the reply guys - yes it was a flitch beam I was thinking about / I will try and run the roof slope sideways instead / the garden room won’t take over half the garden as the garden is 120ft long. Thanks once again - Jon (will be purchasing a load of raffle tickets) 👍🏼

[@derekmanning7760]

Tickets bought, voting done, just need to find that 6 digit number!

[@johnnylong8821]

Top notch, better any day than watching the box!

[@MrQuasar1958]

Nice one Liam 👍🏼

[@matthewkabat4633]

Good morning in Cape Town South Africa

[@domfranks85]

*Question* Jen what did you do for your birthday? Designer shoes did you get them? (Jen answer the questions in detail just to wind Liam up)😂

[@nyqer6636]

You up for an award😂😂😂 Bought another ticket for the pod/cash to boost the numbers Fight fight fight. Lucky Davey with fingers n hole How many hands saws do you go through??

[@danwareham8209]

Awesome videos. Learning loads. Are the new garden pods built the same way as your traditional builds? What are the differences. Thanks in advance

[@thainigthu]

Brilliant video as always! You mentioned about putting the rods in sandy soil which I've got (found shells and everything, might have been made up ground), what did you do differently for sandy soil?

[@keendnb]

I'm about to use Hybris in my build, it's a multi foil so won't condensate in the air gaps..... I'll report back with how I get on 👍

[@pauliinndaly3586]

Part 3 yes😊😊😊

[@frandarts1981]

Another brilliant video with an unbelievable amount of info, cheers guys. Tell Liam I have both tickets and voted 😂😂😂 Keep up the great work. At the end of each video could you give a rundown on what's coming the next day to avoid question that have nothing to do with the phase of the build your doing? Just a thought 👍

[@michaelbonehill1654]

Sat here patiently waiting for the next episode. Great work so far. Even though the football is on watching you and the team is much more interesting, Sad maybe but who cares.

[@thegardenroomguru]

70% uploaded, sounds a bit dicy for some unknown reason 😬thanks for watching 💪🏻

[@richardwatts20]

John is a proper legend

[@rayp6410]

you seem like a good lad to work with,as a brickie by trade i do love working with timber thinks its a break from the norm

[@stannotts]

This is way better than any Netflix series, keep up the great work.

[@markbifferos2765]

See: Makita B-43387 Hollow Socket, 3/4 x 24-Inch, Makita have a range of these, don't know if they are compatible with the nut size used here. I don't personally think it's worth it for a the DIY installer, but a no-brainer for what these guys do.

[@ratkinson-uk]

Interesting listening to you shout over the impact drivers, it makes a very good case for ear defence. It's ultimately down to personal preference - I ride a motorbike with the Mrs and I get absolutely nowhere trying to persuade her to wear ear plugs.

[@neilbissett1240]

Just voted for you 😉

[@cobrasteve427]

Awesome videos. Can you continue a patio by laying paving slabs onto or instead of a wooden floor. Also on a steep slope is scaffold frame not a good solid option?

[@duncaninspain]

All these buliding questions! I want to know where Liam parks his hair and makeup trailer

[@richarddavey7884]

When glue down on joists, you put less fixings in or you don't and put 4 screws per board per joist

[@GrahamParker-ul4kf]

The rods you use look great. I'm wanting to build a deck would you agree that using rods would be the way to go. Cheers

[@kriskelly6458]

Is that the 6 didgit number on the post hole diggers? I love my IM350+ just the fact that it’s lighter, the new battery and the holder to stop it slipping out is much better, and you can use cheap nails. IMO the rawplug nails from Screwfix are the cheapest. Keep up the quality content and banter 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@explorewithant8263]

Hi,,I’m after doing one in my garden,,I’ve had a base done but I’ve changed my mind in size,,have you got a video of one you guys have done bigger than a concrete base

[@PaulDobson-ih6lc]

My nemesis has been rolling down the nuts! Ronnie! Sell them!

[@reviewz2424]

Love the vids. 👍 Keep up the good work. Are the 4x3” wall plates you use actually 100x50mm or 95x47mm? Can’t seem to get a true 100x50mm anywhere..

[@dancingmango1]

Fantastic videos, not just for what I'm learning but also it's brilliant to see such a great team working together A couple of questions... If you were just putting up one garden room (6x4) would you get (ebay or hire) a nail gun (which one, framing or finishing?) or would you just stick with a hammer?! I think you said that you will clad the rear wall near the fence before putting it up; given the weight of the wall could you please explain/demonstrate how you would do this if you were doing it by yourself. And final question (sorry, sort of about the rods) in a previous video you said that you cut the shoes that the beams sit on yourselves. Is this still the case or can they be bought from Bapps? ...Maybe this is answered in the build pack!! (At the beginning of the series I was sceptical - you're doing a great job of selling them, I'm now convinced! Anyway, hope you get a chance to answer these, again thanks for putting this series together, you're a real inspiration!

[@peterwagstaff2715]

Could you use yellow tennis balls on the rods for safety

[@ink-land]

Loving the new series. Raffle ticket purchased and voted. Just an observation - would it be a good idea once you've drilled the pad to put a square washer and lock it down against the concrete for the rods that you resin in? You can't be sure how much concrete is left under the rod once you've drilled the pad so the washer would ensure the rod couldn't push down over the years.

[@Papa_George1]

What wood treatment would be good for the base timbers if I needed any

[@campagquinn]

When you clad the front in cedar I see you guys doubling up the battens. If I use composite cladding do I need to double batten or single batten like you do around the sides and back ??

[@KevinBrown-zf4cn]

Skylight - ever put one in, any issues with one?

[@philoakes8571]

Hi I’m interested in putting a framed door that lifts like a garage door, using gas struts. To use as a cover for working in bad weather. Would you still recommend using a steel above the opening. Cheers team.

[@dwmatthews113]

Would the build packs be any use here in Ireland for sourcing materials?

[@paulgolightly3885]

Plus Liam do you still recommend a steel even for French doors or is double 5x2 strong enough m8,3m wide so not to wide

[@Islamic7882]

Didn't quiet understand if you mentioned there's overhang on flooring around the edges if so how much is the over hang and what is the purpose of over hang just for my understanding. Keep up the great work

[@thegardenroomguru]

The edge of the floor is cut flush with the timber frame work, there is no over hang, only on the roof.

[@robstubbs2167]

Great video again. If you put a quote in for a garden room and don't build it until a year later, who will have to pay for increases in materials or is that price guaranteed in the original quote? Keep up the good work guys.

[@keendnb]

Question: do you ever ply the wall over the insulation before the plasterboard so you have good fixing points when the build is complete?

[@nyqer6636]

Do you check for square using the diagonal or know from using Johns square??

[@zulfqarali905]

Hi liam and the team keep it up you are doing a great job and having fun making some brilliant videos superstar Ali Walsall west midlands england junction 10 m6 Walsall churckery

[@This.Is.Jason.L]

Have you ever considered an annexe build? Where planning permission is required as it would need to be habitable. We are currently sourcing someone to do the project 11m x 3.5m the quotes we have received are outrageous for what it is as we know what goes into it, Love the channel and would be a great market for you to explore. We know you would do just as good of a job if not better. If this is something of interest we would love to get involved and happy for you to document the process.

[@chrisdick5448]

Liam / Jen, I'm interested in the base in relation to the door and how you account for the cill of the door to allow the finished internal floor to run nicely and cover the cill. It looks like you finish your sub floor all flat, so do you not fit a cill on the door? I'm not a trades person, so hopefully this makes sense

[@michaelanderson6625]

Use the impact on the spade bit for goodness sake,, can be done with one hand

[@gringadoor5385]

Have a question for ya: Building regs won't allow greater than 30m/s internal for a single room. Can canopies overcome this, so that multiple 30m/s rooms can be connected with canopies in between, under a continuous roof? Cheers

[@Asingh1826]

Hi John , thanks for creating this Vedio . Question I have , I am planning to Build 6mx5m room with walking shower. Their is a already platfrom of 10mx8m with about 8inch Concrete . Should I be drilling holes to put in the roads with Plates or just drill 25mm Holes and Fix the rods using the compound that should in the vedio ? Also how many holes/Screws in need to put in

[@nyqer6636]

Do you have to check with customers about videos for build?

[@murtmtb3284]

I’m down in Portsmouth, Would you consider a job outside of Yorkshire? Or would you prefer to stay local?

[@elliot8595]

I would stain the 4x3 timber

[@danwareham8209]

Is there a reason you don't use a hot blade foam cutter for the PIR?

[@simonosgerby97]

Rods could be cut by hand with a bahco hacksaw with the blade put in at an angle. More effort but cheaper and safer

[@user-ip1zx3yf7b]

Hi you had a rubber m24 nut spinner can you tell me where you purchased please? many thanks

[@Geowebbie]

Wohoo!!

[@campagquinn]

Rubber roof question. When buying mine today they advised applying g glue to rubber and OSB. And waiting for it to tack off. I'd prefer to do it your way. What do you think ??

[@chrisb2443]

If I did my roof again I wouldn’t bother with the contact adhesive around the edges. I thought I gave it enough time to tack off but it kept blistering after installation. If I did it again I would just run the regular adhesive to the edges like Oakwood do. The perimeter trims hold it secure anyway.

[@andynewman4394]

Who are the better builders Northern South 🤔

[@utensil999]

Do they do the Sunday omnibus of EastEnders anymore

[@hoog111]

Liam have you tried Dewalt Forster type bit 75mm instead of chainsaw for recessing top bolt on floor frame? Might save some time. John when you were talking to camera I thought I recognise that bloke, took a while to realise I watch your photography channel.

[@hoog111]

Trim that tree in the corner before you put the sides up. How many times have you walked into it lol

[@owenbooth6891]

What model number is ur Mikita inpact gun u r using at 1hr 24 mins 49 secs

[@geewilliams2178]

Hey my question is, Why do I keep watching all you videos. I love making stuff and do a lot of DIY but I am never gonna make a garden room. So why do I keep watching you lot? HAHAH

[@jeztaylor6308]

Regarding those sizes towards the end (4m x 7.5m).....don't you need more than a 500mm boundry to the fence?

[@petereyre5188]

Wasn't there a certain bi fold door cill cut too short recently......🤔🤣🤣🤣

[@markhilton6379]

What are the make of impact bits you used when putting the flooring boards down?

[@thegardenroomguru]

I’ve tried them all mate, just stick too what Evers on offer at toolstation tbh, Dewalt atm

[@keithwiddows2391]

What happened with the green seaweed superfood?

[@user-ho8vc2wc4m]

What do Bapp call the shoes you use for the threaded rods to connect joists? I couldn't find on their website, are they custom made or a stock item? Keep up the good work

[@chrisb2443]

I’m sure they’ve made them in a previous video out of regular steel channel, so I don’t think they are off the shelf.

[@jenbulmer]

Just ask for steel channel if you speak to bap’s just say the once’s Oakwood garden room use and they should know what your talking about😊 we don’t make our own now they make them for us 😊

[@DrPepper22222]

Why does your ultra long nut socket need the handles? Couldn't you just cut those off so there's no risk getting hit by them while spinning. Good work team

[@chrisb2443]

So they can use it by hand. I think they only run the nuts down with the drill so it’s faster.

[@zlock97]

If digging in sand for footings... u usually go less deep than clay! Dnt ask me why... just how its always been

[@nyqer6636]

Boo , no number for Jen 😮😂😂😂

[@Diced420]

Why don’t you guys use a recip saw to cut the rods with a decent metal blade

[@ianellwood357]

is there a limit on raffle tickets you can buy .

[@AR_909]

Great work chaps & Jen... getting a roofing question in early doors... have you ever done or been asked to do an extensive living roof? How would you go about doing one (asking for when you come to Suffolk and do mine 😉)... 9.5 x 4...!!!

[@johnhickey1369]

Where do I get the tickets

[@matthewkabat4633]

What do use a laser to measure

[@jenbulmer]

I will write down your question but I’m not sure what you ment to ask?😊

[@paulgolightly3885]

Is the height of the front exactly 2.5m m8

[@fizzerpilot]

Why dont you cut down the wood to the shoe on the short rods in the middle support so you can put the lock nut on and it will stop bugging me that there is no nut on them lol

[@murtmtb3284]

Brown or red sauce?

[@niallrobertmoran]

Davie needs tash of the year award 😂

[@matthewkabat4633]

What size link Tima do use for the base

[@jenbulmer]

I’m not sure what you mean in this one either?😊

[@mazhariqbal3630]

I like 4x4 timber base kit idea, I don’t think this kit is available in local shops.
