Knocking Brick Wall Through For Doorway | The Carpenter's Daughter
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 лис 2019
- I'm back on my parents' bungalow renovation and this week. And this week, I'm talking you through how we knocked a brick wall through a bedroom and stole some of the garage to create an en suite/walk-in wardrobe.
Also, I compare our previous experience of using an acrow prop.
Please note, I am in no way trained, or a professional. However, a building inspector has been on-site and given the all-clear. I'll talk about that very soon in an update.
If you have any questions or tips, then feel free to comment and I'll try to answer, or take them on board.

Here's my written step by step: thecarpentersdaughter.co.uk/renovations/knocking-a-wall-through-for-a-doorway/
Hi, whilst the method with which you did this job worked could l suggest next time for this grade of brick, or Thermal Blocks, you use an Arbour Saw, light weight, simpler safer and very little dust, available to hire from Travis Perkins.
You were wrongly advised about the wall you cut into. It was load bearing as it carried the wall plate for the roof trusses, as you cut it within the span of the wall plate it held. If you had cut it at a joint on the wall plate you risked the roof dropping and possible collapse. You can actually see the wall plate at 6.20. The wall is also bearing the flat roof joists.
You should never use a longer drill bit than is necessary, the outside wall was going to be cut through as you showed so you should of only need a 120mm bit for most of the job, when you were drilling the upper part of the wall with the long bit, you hand the drill right next to your face. If the drill bit had jammed in the bore of the hole, in a split second the case of the drill would have smacked you in the face and may have broke your jaw and or caused you to fall of the step ladder. Can l also mention that when using a power tool with an external rotation moving part, a drill. don't wear clothing with cords hanging down. After all you were good enough to tie your hair back to stop that getting in the way.
You do a very good job to a very good standard, I hope you keep it up and stay safe. . Ok it would put a Health ans Safety Compliance manager like me out of a job. But l would pay the price if people didn't have accidents.
Great video! It's never annoying to ask questions. It's annoying destroying something or having to fix another person's work because they wouldn't ask questions. I appreciate all the effort and time you put in to share this with us. Thanks..
That's how I see it too. I can't assume the next step because I can't always foresee it. And thank you :)
Thank you for helping me with a few tips, especially regards the lintel in regards taking it gentle. Also its really good to see a women taking on these type of jobs. Nice house also. Lots of space.
THANKS VIKKIE ! Great to see a woman instructing blokes like me . Very helpfull . Thanks Vikkie .
Great job getting stuck in there. Good to see a handywoman! 👍
now that's what you call smashing a back door in. well done great job.
😂 Thanks! :)
😉
What a good Dad you have! I’m sure my daughter will ask me to do a few bits for her when she is older.
That's what Dads are for 😂
Love a bit of demolition! We bought a diy vacuum in the end...avoided huge rows over my knackered dyson.
I can imagine 😂 My Mum strictly uses an old VAX Hoover from yonks ago she donated to the houses. Then every time a part fails, she keeps replacing the bits.
There are some diy projects I have no problem to tackle but I dont think I would had tried this one I give you lot of credit you are very smart diy person great job👍
Thanks! I would have been very nervous if my Dad wasn't there to advise. But also after watching the kitchen one being done too with acrow props, I'm less scared now. It's just the sheer weight of the lintels that scare me when they're bigger. I'd probably have to get help in with that if I didn't have my Dad and husband here.
Wow! I’m impressed! I’m also a carpenter’s daughter and love learning to do things myself!
New subscriber, here, from Michigan. 💕🌻
So jealous that you have someone around to teach you all these things. I'd be bricking it doing that (pun intended) 😂
Haha... yes, it's the sort of job I'd be bricking it too 😂 And I wouldn't have known how far to remove the bricks around the floor joists, so glad my Dad knows 😄
Very brave to do that. So much could go wrong. Good job.
Thanks :)
I do like your channel. Lots of narration, lots of honesty, and a lovely northern accent.
P.S. Love seeing your collie dog in the videos although appreciate that's often not practical.
I am in awe look forward to the next video
Thanks :) Wish I could edit them quick enough 😂 Got far too much to catch up on lol
its fun to work beside your dad enjoy it my dads been gone 10 years now good he is showing you how to do thing :)
Aww, sorry to hear that!
Same here.
Fair play you get stuck in. I Love your videos it’s always great to see you just roll the sleeves up and get stuck in with jobs 💪🏻💪🏻
Thanks! Don't learn by not giving things a go :)
Now that's proper graft😅 nice job and another string to your bow. I've got to build a man cave at our new place and promised the better half a garden makeover so that's me set for 12 months 🤣🤣 great vid keep up the top work x
Sounds fun! :) hope you enjoy and thank you 😀
Girl you must have serious muscles after all this work .. so cool seeing it all change so much xx thanks 😁😁😁
Thanks, Claire :) The arms do ache every week after helping out 😂
You are getting some great experience.
Absolutely! :) I've been learning so much 😀
If I were doing it "old school" I would use a bolster to take the plaster off. Cutting the mortar out would be the job of a seaming chisel. You can take a single brick out and then extend sideways. Once you have a row out you go back to the bolster to split each brick from the ones below it, meaning you only need to remove the mortar from one vertical and then simply split the rest off! The bolster is a good tool to split bricks in half with .... especially from above ;0)
If dust was a problem a mortar rake fitted on to an angle grinder would do the work of a seaming chisel. It would make dust but that dust would fall and not get spread around the room! If the plaster were old I would go for a spade to remove it quick sharp.
There is no need for slate to wedge the lintel ...... simply wedge it hard with wooden wedges and use a hard cement mix to pack the majority of the lintel in with. You need at least half a brick overlay for the lintel to rest on and if it is load bearing should be set on a concrete pad too!
Having said all that there are usually more than one valid way to do most things and the results at the bungalow look good!
Thanks for all the tips! :)
I need to keep this comment. Thanks! I wish I knew more of what you’re talking about. My carpenter dad passed away, so I’m trying to do as many things as I can by myself, and it’s hard at age 65 and 4’ 9”! Lol❣️
@@Tinyteacher1111 The hard thing is to know what you can do yourself ..... and when to pay someone to do it for you!
Dave W Oh, yeah! I figured that out a long time ago, which is why I have a 6’ 5” bodybuilder handyman and a contractor!
Just found your channel...think its amazing...I think it works because guys can pretend they knew all this before while being showed by a lady😅 my new favourite channel...will binge watch..and learn 😁😊
😂😂😂 Or I've had, "it's so easy, even a girl can do it" 😂 Hope you enjoy 😊
I'm sensing that Sarah Beeny might have some competition soon!
😂😂
Coming on nicely well done keep up the excellent work
Thank you :)
snapped my chissel once. noticed it was piping hot. so now i keep a bucket of water to cool it down. hasnt snapped since
Good stuff... this is proper building work 👍
Thanks 😊
Spray the wall with water to reduce the dust. I used one of those plant water spray bottles
You can simply get hilti saws with dust collection hose connection from saw to vac.
So much easier. 45minute job cut from both sides
Well done!
Thanks :)
Big thumbs up again 👍
Thanks 😀
Well done 😊😊😊😊
Thanks :)
Festool and Metabo have some diamond saws / grinders and sds rotary hammer drills with dustcollection. I never ran one of those (jet!) myself, but for people who plan on getting new tools anyway or are annoyed of all the dust and dirt this might be worth looking into.
Thanks for the tip! :) I'll bear this in mind if I'm feeling a bit flush at a later date 😄
Great job 👍👍👍👍
Thanks :)
This is so empowering
Good job 👍👍
Cheers :)
Top job as always
Cheers :)
Your very welcome
I can't wait to see more of you bungalow adventures. What was going on at 6:35? It looks like you are hammering an unsupported concrete lintel... then stop think twice about it!
Thanks! I was taking instructions in that clip so stopped to listen.. That lintel has completely gone and so has the wall :)
You know what this means??...a new SDS drill from Screwfix for Xmas?!!!! 😜😜😜🤣👍👍👍🏴
Haha... I do have one now - just need to unbox it :)
Nice work..
You go guurl!
Ah! Thanks!
I started watching the van stuff but was really impressed with your presenting ability. You shouldn't be on TV
Thanks.. although not sure if there's a typo in here? 😂😂😂
@@TheCarpentersDaughterUK Sorry "should". I was inspired to get a Vito after watching your videos, I spent the summer at some festival's and weekends away. Looking forward to next year trips away and more videos for "The Carpenters Daughter"
thanks.
Thanks! I will (honestly) get 'round to finding me a fixer-upper one day; will refer to this as I go. All the best :-)
Good job
Thank you :)
Cracking well done
Thank you :)
Really impressed with all your work, particularly with this one. Watching all your videos gives me that push to get stuck with some DIY despite being inexperienced and having minimal knowledge. Would you mind telling me if you had to apply for planning permission or a building regulation approval to knock the wall? Keep up the great work!
Looks a great project to work/learn on. The bungalow is up Doncaster way isn't it? Hope you are not affected by the floods.
Yes, absolutely :) Learnt a lot in the space of two months! Luckily the house was unaffected, but there were some roads blocked off getting in which I assumed were related.
I've looked but can't see the next step in this. I've removed an old door and there seems to be a double brick cavity wall gap and can't figure out how to seal it all back up
Well done. Whats the point of the packers under the lintel?
That's a great video and very informative. I have a 300 year old stone cottage where id like to make a door opening upstairs just below the wall plate for the roof. Can I use the same technique or should I use props and needles. My only big concern is stabilising any loose stone in the door opening. Any advice from your father would be great. Thanks
I've been fortunate that any existing brickwork that I've had to work with has been just a facade and not structural. Good to see how it's done.
Also, I thought all of you folks on the east side of the pond have gone to metric exclusively. I'm wondering why you're using inches here? Is it because the house was built before the UK converted and you want to keep things consistent?
Very, very good question!!! My Dad works in inches mostly from what I know.. or talks about timber in inches, ie 2x4... or in his dialect, I've always heard him say 2 b' 4 😂
but I try to use cm.
@@TheCarpentersDaughterUK lol. That's how I say it too, and I'm from the American High Plains. Actually, 2x4s is how my dad got his first job after getting his degree in architecture in 1972. He was trying to leave his resume with an architecture and drafting firm, but the secretary was out. Instead he met the owner who asked him, "What're the dimensions of a 2x4?"
"Inch and 5/8ths by three and 5/8ths." my dad said.
The owner yells over his shoulder, "I think we got a winner"
I'm doing it today (I am.a former bricky mind do odd jobs and diff job for main income im using 1 acrow and strongbow to be safe its a supporting wall rather be safe than sorry
Good on you
I’d love to know how you made good around the uneven cut side? Do you have a video of that please?
Sadly there isn't one. This wall all done while I wasn't there :(
When we go any tool shop so what iam say for this tool name when I am purchase
Nice job but be careful with that cavity wall insulation, I'm sure I read that the early stuff had some nasty materials in (asbestos).
I've been informed this stuff must've been from a spray can and was installed in the 60s. Not sure what it's called though.
Hi, in the UK this product, originally produced by ICI was not available until 1974, The use of asbestos was banned in the UK in 1972, ICI actually marketed it as being totally 'ass' free.
@@petercross8871 that's good to know, didn't some have formaldehyde in ?
@@harleydavidson801 Hi, I wouldn't know, but the ICI product is reputed to be a by product of the foam they put into refrigerators.
Why were you using a drill bit which was so long? Seems this contributed to it snapping. Looked like you only needed a normal length bit.
It could have been the only one available at the time.
Ah :-)
You should use the drill for the plaster board you should of used a resiprecater
👌👌👌
You certainly get 'stuck-in' with the grafting - feels good afterwards though - Right?? :-)
The learning, absolutely :)
Is there a part 2 for this video?
Hopefully there will be soon. We haven't finished it yet :)
How long did it take to create the door opening?
Hy, can this be done in a day?
About how much would this project cost?
Hello, nothing to do with doorways, what tile adhesive would you use on 300x500 ceramic tiles? Thank you.
I've just done my bathroom in 250 x 500 tiles, I used Adesilex P9.
@@tonystamford thank you very much👍
V good
You could've removed the curtain. With all that dust you will need a few washes.
😂 That curtain is just for security right now.. it'll be going straight in the bin when we're done 😀
This is great, we should name this one the carpenter's ass....
Whats that machine name???
Who do we consult
Great women 😀😀
Thank you 😄
The Carpenter's Daughter 😍
I want a wife like this! :)
So that 'carpenter's daughter' tag is beginning to be a bit restrictive then Vikkie?
Yes, it seems so, but it feels very normal with this being what my parents have always done :)
@@TheCarpentersDaughterUK My comment has almost always been true, but this series highlights it. Your enthusiasm for new skills is obvious, and your dad gives you confidence to indulge.
Your mint 🤗
😀
you need a break! where is the campervan's videos?
I do!!! lol... I have got to edit our Summer one this week or next in fact. But rather fancy a motorhome holiday next :)
VIKKIE STOP DRAWING ON THE WALL...... but I'm doing maths...LOL.............................................sorry i had too..
I did do that as a kid actually. It was my times table too 😆
she was only the Carpenter's daughter but she wood.
Why d'you keep starting your sentences with the word 'SO'?
