- This is a video on how to replace a brick within a wall. This can apply for any wall, however it's important that you get the correct match. For example, the same type of brick and the same coloured cement/lime.

The time you spent cleaning off every little bit was a testament to your pride in your work
Top notch job
Thank you
I don’t know why I’m watching this.
I’m only 9 years old lol
But my dad watched this, and he fixed one of the bricks on our shed!
Thanks
sorry to be so offtopic but does anyone know a way to get back into an Instagram account?
I somehow forgot my account password. I would love any tips you can give me.
@Leonardo Ronan Instablaster :)
@@leonardoronan1961 sorry no idea :(
@Christopher Lennox thanks for your reply. I found the site through google and I'm in the hacking process now.
Seems to take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Christopher Lennox it worked and I actually got access to my account again. I'm so happy!
Thank you so much you saved my ass!
Thanks for showing how to do this with simple tools, just what I needed! :)
No problem 👍
Ohh cool manual chipping of mortar and removal of brick and showing what tools to use plus mixing mortar manually. TY👏🤩😍 music also 👍
Cheers for posting.
Good job, i have this lime mortar in the joints of my house i use 2 sharp sand and 2 building sand, as like your job the sand they use is more course and it will match a lot better. A lot of the grit i can see on the surface of my joints is 2mm or more, my bungalow was built in 1924, i drill lots of holes in the mortar around my bricks to help remove them.
Lovely attention to detail. OLD BOY STYLE!
BLOODY GOOD SHOW
Like that little saw.. great stuff. From Australia.
Cheers 👍
Great work geezer.
Thank you for your valuable time and effort in making this very informative video 📹
👍
wow a perfectionist at work...
Spot on 👍
nice clean job. excellent demo.
Glad you liked it!👍
Should you be undusting the bottom brick before putting the mortar on it?
What grain size is in that sand you use?
Good to see someone taking his time to do a decent job, it's not how quickly it can be done that's important, it's making the effort to do it properly. Good result.
👍
Excellent job 👏
Many thanks 👍
Great job, thanks for sharing
Great video, I’m often having to remove chipped bricks or move an air brick, often use a 10mm tuck pointer to work the mortar back in was just curios as to the wooden object you used to point up with and how to make one please
It’s just a little bit of hardwood, 10 mm thick by about 50 mm wide 150 mm long, cut it to an angle of 45% on one end, you find every now and then you have to sand or plane the end flat, hope this helps, many thanks for watching 👏👏🧱
Great video, just have few question. To me it looks these are old Victorian/Edwardian bricks 🧱. Are they not pointed with lime and sand only? Should you be using sand and lime without cement? The reason for me asking you is I have got couple of bricks to replace in my old Edwardian house, and I haven’t got any of reclaimed bricks but some of good quality from Travis and Perkins. Can I fit them into the external wall or do I must use reclaimed ones? I would be grateful for your advise. Thanks great tutorial.
I currently am a brick layer in studies and trust me when am saying this using cement in your mortar is the most important thing. 4:1 sand:cement👍
Look Around. I have found bricks under porches and buried in the backyard.I always wash my bricks with alkaline ammonia and lots of water rinse to defeat the effects of acid rain and fumic acid in soil.
@@kaghachi Keep studying kid. Cement is for modern buildings. Lime is for heritage buildings. Big difference.

What if, say, 12 bricks or so from a retaining wall decided to jump to their demise? Can I glue this rectangle of destruction up again or complete loss?
Hi pal. Was that regular building sand you've used with the lime. I thought the mix was 1.5 building sand and 1.5 Sharp sand and 1 part lime 3.5 nhl,, is that correct?.
It was a mix, the sand was equal parts soft and sharp sand, many thanks for watching 👍👍
The brick was a good match, but the mortar you added was finished smooth, the existing mortar wasn't so for me the colour and texture you achieved were both wrong, you should have made a 'putty mold' for the joints and matched it more closely
Piss of Brian you sad little man
@@israeladesanya4596 Was there any need to be abusive, I have made a valid comment on the work done in the video, and your contribution is of no value at all. Still if you feel better about your lack of invention - Rock on
@@biffoswilly yes
@@israeladesanya4596 Dipshit!
Cheers
If only there was a tool you could plug in with some kind of spinning blade with diamonds on that could speed the job up 😏
Sure, just please don´t use those watercooled blades, they add much too much water and make a mess to such old lime mortar masonry
Good video lads
thanks!
What mix do you use for replacing damaged bricks to get a colour match ?
It’s trial and error 👍
hi budd..In the past ive kept the existing lime from the bricks and used it again.....
Welldone
Thank you 👍
like going to the dentist😂😂
But a lot cheaper 👍
nice finish but I think a finger trowel makes life easier.
1 down, 20 to go :)
Is that lime mortar sand and lime
What kind of saw is that and where can I get one?
It’s a cut down hand saw, I just cut an old saw down with a grinder, that simple 👍
@@BuildingwithBudd Thank you so much
You could just get an 8mm drill bit and drill out the joints!
What's the track in the background?
Sorry POP in
Updated the oh ui pop
Annoying 😂
It’s a classic building track 👍
I use a drywall saw.
looks like another 4 at least to go
Lovely neat job. Well done 👍🏻
Big thanks👍
it needed more cement you never mixed enough
Good brick match but mortar colors miss shades of yellow more white sand and texture needs to match the other masonry mans work. Other than that good job.
Must be on day rate 😂😂
Glad I'm not paying him😂
Piece work does it fast , day rate does it well , take your pick
Link for that toothed chisel if possible.

Try that 😁
Thank you.
Just cut it out with a sthil saw this is so painful to watch
All these type of videos replace a brick that has been bedded with lime mortar. I wonder why🤔
Because you very rarely have to chop out modern bricks, and it’s a lot harder to do but we will do one at some point, thanks for watching 👍
You could have put a bit of mortar in that hole below the brick you replaced.. "Not my job mate".
