- What's happening folks
Apologies for the lack of updates, I've been moving house amongst other things. I have been tracking the most common items we pull our lads on across our business and it seems to be recurring items. Sometimes the smallest of mistakes and cost a significant amount of time and money to put right. With a bit of planning, checking and double checking these common mistakes can be avoided and ultimately you can earn more money as you are not going back on things.
What are the most common things you pick up in your gangs??

I'm 48 now another few years I won't be going on site alot of people won't entertain now and can see why chippy on price will tell you to do one and bricklayer on price with today's prices no chance better of walking away from bricklaying now
Price work lads are still earning decent money, and in reality things haven’t changed that much, they are just more closely monitored
Plus you have to fill all brickwork and block work as you go every hole must be filled all time consuming
Site work is shite they want everything done for shit money fuckin Subbys fuck em off
@@Mark-lu3tn plots do have to pass air tests now. I build my own houses and the last thing you need is a failed air test, hard to correct. Air tests are done when plot is finished so as you can imagine trying to find the source of an air leak means potentially ripping plasterboard off of walls etc
good info imo,standard stuff that most should know,when Zurich was inspecting ours,probably 15yrs ago they wanted ties at 225 on gable cut ups,its weakest point of house
@@peteabbott5653 I’m always super cautious when it comes to gables
‘ abuse me like you normally do’ … 😂😂😂😂
😂 you should see the comments that UA-cam hold for me to review 😳 anyone would think I make all the rules 😂
@@Tone_TeamI can well believe it.!😂😂
If the ties end up 890 its the same amont of ties
It’s the distance sound travels so 890mm may end up with same amount of ties but sound transmission could be worse as ties are closer together! I’m sure 10mm won’t hurt, I’m just trying to explain why it’s 900mm

Don't have gas back to oil
I’ve gone Air Source Heat Pump
Gas box is in the ground on my job
@@ConnerDouglas-d9g we have a job where both electric and gas are inside the plots, bonus 👍🏻
Great video and you are just trying to be helpful, however goes to show how mad nhbc have gone.
Thanks mate! Quite refreshing for someone to actually appreciate the content and realise it’s not me that comes up with these crazy ideas 👍🏻
I know this video is just to help lads out but it also highlights why so many good brickies are leaving the sites behind and doing private work, ive been building houses for 25 years now and every one of those years the NHBC have added stupid extras that us brickies have to do and our prices never change with them!
And be honest people are the NHBC worth the paper there printed on?? No way!!!
How many houses have we seen handed over to customers which have been inspected several times by NHBC which are a mess! Loads in my time.
Its ok for joiners because they have a power tool for everything and there always on great prices yet us brickies get more and more added on, our prices never rise much and what power tools do we have? A bloody radio!
As far as im concerned the NHBC are clowns!!
I don’t agree. Of course there are horror stories of defective work and poor workmanship, social media highlights this more than ever. You say that NHBC are not worth the paper they are written on but you complain that that the level of inspections are more frequent and a higher standard is expected. A home is 99% of the time the biggest single purchase of persons lifetime, surely it’s time for the industry to protect purchasers more than ever. Bricklayers tools, profiles, bench saws, internal profiles, gable profiles are more readily available than ever. The introduction of Part L requires all developers to photograph a significant amount of photos as evidence of good practise, don’t realise the impact of failed Part L photos? It’s not just black and white I’m afraid. One thing I do agree on is that rates need to reflect all of the above and I see rates improving across the industry over next few years
We stopped building the houses gone back on foundations again easier to make ya money none of this bollocks on the houses
I know there’s good money in the footings but working in the conditions you do I’d expect good money. Certainly no longevity working in the footings. Personally I don’t think it’s right or acceptable. Conditions should be same as when building superstructure

So you got two weep holes over a gas box,that is going to let gas out if there’s a leak. Your having a laugh 😅😅😅😅
Pay attention. Less weep vents to PREVENT gas entering the cavity, not to release the gas.
@@Tone_Team I wouldn’t worry too much about that, the weep holes will probably be full of muck anyway. So it’s just a load of bollocks
@@sentbob4154 just so everyone knows I don’t make the rules I just play by them 😂
What a load of bollocks ,glad out of it 😢
@@kevinkeefe1962 I don’t make the rules 😂
