    WE DESTROYED A CAR PORT .. PORCH PART 4 WE GET THE BLAKES PROFILES UP AND BUILD UP THE 7 COURSES OF THE PORCH DWARF WALL THEN BACK IT UP WITH FIBOLITE BLOCKS ON THE INTERNAL SKIN WITH CAVITY WALL INSULATION INSTALLED AS WE WENT.
    NEXT WE BUILD THE 3 STEPS FOR ACCESS TO THE FRONT DOOR THEN FINALLY WE GET TO TEAR DOWN THE OLD FIBREGLASS CAR PORT WHICH PUT UP A HELL IF A FIGHT.
    ONCE DOWN WE HAD TO REPLACE SOME BRICKS WHICH HAD BEEN BADLY BLOWN BY THE FIXINGS USED ON THE CAR PORT SUPPORTS..

    Very impressive job. I'd give you 11 out of 10.
    Almost looks like you know what you are doing!! 😉
    PS I bet 99% of builders wouldn't have cut out & replaced the bricks with the canopy bolts, just cut them flush with an angle grinder. Superb attention to detail.

    interesting you laid the steps direct on the flags without giving them any footings?
    Was the driveway / flags to be trusted then?

    Sorry to show my ignorance, but, building the steps on those "pavers" seems troublesome. Won't they move naturally? Won't the steps pull away from the porch?

    Great job boys as always. Lesser men would have cut the bolts flush with the wall.....and damaged the brick at the same time. Good to see skilled men who know what they are doing !!!!

    You've done a good job, this isn't aiming at your work, but I can't understand client's wisdom loosing some of his parking space, and access to the garage, assuming there is one in the back garden (well, if there isn't now, there is enough space to have one and there was a driveway access to it that is now gone!). Could you shed some light please?

      @@SteveAndAlexBuildThanks gentlemen, I can see it from their perspective now, maybe bungalows aren't so big so unlikely a family with 3 or 4 cars be living there, maybe at their stage of life comfort and keeping heating costs down are more of a priority (it's for all of us right now!)
      I'd have considered adding a prefab garage (bought a nearly new one once for £1, as long as I dismantle and take away at my cost) and kept the driveway open (would get rid of that ghastly canopy as you did), maybe a recessed porch could be worked out? I think this plan could increase the property value at least would add to its market appeal.
      That said, the porch wouldn't be light and airy like this one so good on them and god bless 🐥👍

    A house I deliver to had one of them unsupported canopy's over the drive/door. That was until all the snow we had in 2010 caused it to collapse onto the car and take the whole gable end brickwork with it!
    Car was a write off and it took the insurance 4 months to sort the house out.
    The replacement canopy has 4 legs on it and when it snows the neighbour next door puts 3 acrow props under his unsupported canopy.

    Looks awesome. Can I make a request that every now and then you release a real-time video? I just love watching you both lay bricks (weird as that might sound), and so it's always slightly disappointing to me that most of your brick laying is sped up. I love the channel either way, I just wanted to make that request.

    When those canopies came out mid 80s, they advertised they could hold a small car, and showed a photo of one with small car on top of one, I almost bought one but the salesman got right on my tits, I told him to jog on, finished up moving shortly after 🤣 so at least I saved the money 💰 👍🧱
