Nick if I ever need a rewire I’m calling you that’s the most impressive cable runs I’ve seen neat tidy and you hoover up after as well perfect you should be proud of yourself
Cause you would 😂
That’s just normal 😂
CO - Carbon monoxide (deadly)
CO² - Carbon Dioxide (in normal air)
Just fyi. Love the videos 👍
Nick ask the customer if they plan to have ceiling Atmos ceiling speakers, it’s well worth the effort and could run from amp position and you could leave them coiled under the floor ready
Proper job ! No bird nests left under the floor boards as you see by cowboys haha 👌🏻👍🏻
First off love the use of oval conduit in the wall, makes replacing cables much easier. However here are some really neat tips to take it to the next level. Get yourself a heat gun, use it to soften the oval conduit and make it round so can run all the way into the box. The next tip is to then soften the conduit in the box and splay it out so you don't even need a grommet. I admit to fashioning some blocks of wood to make this easier but a 25mm stripping knife will do the job just a bit more fiddly. Another tip I have is I find the ends of the oval conduit is prone to cracking and splitting. To counter this I fashioned some blocks of wood to be a nice tight fit in the conduit and then use some glue lined heatshrink tubing to reinforce the end (the wood is to stop the oval conduit from becoming misshapen while heating the heatshrink. The final tip is that you can use 6mm twin and earth on the 25mm oval conduit as a sort of pipe bender so you can bend it around corners after softening without it collapsing. In the same way 2.5mm twin and earth works on the 16mm oval conduit.
We always do the loft work last hour of the day then home for a shower
That’s a rewire and a half Nick so many Data cables…….good work on the plastering/bonding we used to do that as well back in the 80’s
The mention of 23 degrees opened my eyes to what the uk feels is hot my house with ac is set to 72 F so a lil below 23 degrees C. We are normally in the 90-100 degree F here in the summer. So almost 38 degrees C.
I think you've inadvertently called out the major difference though - I'm assuming AC is pretty standard in houses where you are? Houses here, particularly new builds, are heavily insulated to optimise for cold weather and don't generally have AC. It's a pretty mild day here today - 18ºC outside, but it's 24ºC in my house. It hasn't got as hot as 38 yet this summer, but it definitely has the previous couple of years, though thankfully not for too long haha
Mr Bundy. Cracking job. Nuf said.
All very neat. I tend to clip/run cables to the underside of the roof. Running cables through insulation derates the cable. I also use 25mm/20mm conduit with glands into metal back boxes.
29 cat called through a 35mm twin box seems tight. Curious to see the finish product. Great work 👍🏽
Always vacuum under floor boards, nice to see someone else doing it.
Lovely looking job nick , you certainly go the extra mile.
Well worked through…..
I do use CAT 6A cable…. for comms…. The money is in the labour not the cable so worth the uplift.
Wire for security cameras as well. (Simply safe or other)
Run cable to the front garden wall as well (or parking place)for a car charger (again future proof)
Good job…
I did this once years ago, put loads of cable runs in, speaker, data, hdmi. When the room was furnished I decided I wanted the TV somewhere else, never used any of it 😂
Great job as usual...
Instead of using bonding, try the white one coat plaster, you will love it and will never go back..
Clean looking cable runs 🧑🍳🧑🍳
first rate work and a good example to other sparks, neat and tidy and tidy as you go
Great attention to detail Nick. Very tidy job. Nice one
Looking very tidy Nick. Only thing I'm not so keen on (but never tried) is having speaker feeds chased in (Presume there'll be speaker sockets?). I'm a bit of a budget audiophile so quite fussy with brands of speaker cables, but also want the flexibility for moving speakers, or if I want to upgrade my set up. Surely vacuuming under the floor boards must make doing more runs less stressful in a tidier area, plus it is satisfying.
Same here. Although with the customer putting speakers in the top corners of a room, I can't imagine they're anywhere near audiophile territory. 😬
Lovely neat job Nick... We're using 3 core FP200 for smokes now, as we acquired a 500m drum :D Fun to terminate, we are now using round ceiling boxes for them
You certainly work hard, excellent.
Nice job but that double back box can cater for no more than 4 network leads unless you are putting a brush plate for the back box
Great video and tidy job, never seen that many CAT cables in a small house, good future proofing.
Mask is great, but knee pads are just as important! Saw my consultant yesterday and at the age of 49 I’m now on the list for a partial knee replacement in the next year! 👍🏽
My knee pads are inside my works trousers dude 👍
@@NBundyElectrical Sorry to nag 👍🏼
If you are trying to use cat6 instead of hdmi remember 1 hdmi needs 2 cat6 cables. Otherwise a hdmi to minihdmi cable can be run, with an adapter on the mini end behind the TV. The smaller end allows runs in narrower conduit
This is true for older tech, but HDBaseT only needs 1 cat6
I'm always a bit wary of Cat 6 -> HDMI. It's an extra point of failure - and the potential for people thinking they can run it through a switch
@@lordgeeker1138 You can get HDMI over IP adaptors which can indeed be run over a switch.
Having done loft work before, I do not envy you! Looking very tidy!
Second fix on that is gonna be a dream, well done Nick 👍🏻👍🏻
Top job mate those cable runs are amazing well thought out. Just shows that the extra time in planning pays off I might have to get a Milwaukee stapler
Definitely done the right job with running hdmi. Even though you can use the data as Hdmi, you'll never be able to run it in 4k high frame rates like a hdmi cable can do. Im sure cat6 is limited to a certain quality and fps
CAT6 cabling. Very fancy.
nick if you would be a dutch electrician and i would build a home you would be my electrician of choice. thats one banger job of wiring
Love that you're using oval conduit everywhere.
Your attention to details is simply fantastic. top job. Did you say you were running neutrals to the light switces? I wondered if the home owner was putting in Shelly relays or similar.
Attic looks like they need additional insulation. Are you air sealing as you go?
Nice work Nick.. very tidy and well considered for the future 🙂
Brilliant job nice cable runs
Put patch panels in for your Cat6. crazy to use brush plates and box.
But the cables have to come out somewhere (I would have preferred cab in the loft). They could come from under the floor I suppose - but then you've got carpet issues etc
Wow I still love that bag from yesterday video I think it was fab
Nice and neat Nick, you good job !
Great work Nick , enjoy watching & learning, ⚡️👊
If you want to do the absolute top job then use Velcro on the cat6 not cable ties, other than that I knocked one out with the quality there.
Unreal job mate fair play👍🏻
Good rewire Nick, nice tidy job
why are the smoke alarm cables red ? never seen this before is it a wiring reg?
It’s just twin and earth mate that’s dyed red 👍 Doncaster cables bud
@@NBundyElectrical thankyou, good idea
That loft converted would have made a btr office than that we bedroom, i also hoover between joists,
Bloody nice neat quality work there !
Absolutely phenomenal 🤌🏼
Gorgeous cabling job 👍
Nice neat work, Nick, keep it up, I love it!
Cue not queue 😂😂 pls keep hoovering!
Where’s the plumbers pipes going to go typically electrian taking the easy runs lol 😜
Nice job 👍👍👍 ………………..looks like a pop star eats like one also,,😂🤔
I’ve hoover under floor boards a few times. I got told I was werid 😂
I hoovered the attic, underneath the floorboards......and under the basement, drives me nuts. knowing that crap is there (was my own house TBF)
Have Unilite still not sorted out the Bosch battery adapters? I know they're similar to Makita and there are Bosch compatible products all over the internet so what's with the delay? Genuine question, I have all Bosch power tools, mix of Home & Garden and Professional.
Is that a zone on the side wall just around corner from tv. ,, chimney breast it think... / Nick,,, just think...power cut ,, you,ve got F all 😂
Neat install mate 👍
35mm for the switch box? Jeez.
Beautiful but you just know the Paul the Plumber is going to drill through them shortly afterwards
What would be the estimated cost of this work? I.e. a complete reqire of a house with chasing?
much prefer a simple bye at th end of the vidio. very nice work thanks for the tips re: quik mesureing depth for drilling joists. cheres man
So, just saying, but a holes in a joist should be spaced a minimum of 3x its diameter away from each other...😮

You almost make me want to do a rewire
Top notch rewire
Awesome. Could you add one of your ipad doodles for some of the wiring? For example.ple.ive listened 3x to the smoke route and still can't visualise it!
next time mate
CO detector mate. We have been through this. Not Co2 😅
"queue the hoover is a brand..." I'm with you nick, they're all hoovers!
Love your videos mate and your work is awesome!!! But why not put smoke detectors in the bedrooms and the escape routes - especially as you are doing a full rewire??? (P.S. not a keyboard warrior!!!).
My bad - was very premature when you were down stairs and talking about detectors and not mentioning upstairs…. My wife agrees about the premature bit!
Mate I've got the dewalt cable stapler, is the milwaukee one better?
id Only say the Milwaukee one is better, just because it's got a smaller body and easy to get on the floors
I hope you have no switch lines or mains smoke detectors wired in that run which will cause havoc with induced voltages
Please explain how I would get any induced voltage into the smoke alarm circuit when it’s run in the completely separate hole and run throughout the entire house?
@@NBundyElectrical That's what I like to hear, it won't being separate. That's why I hoped that you didn't have it run in that nice neat bunch of cables
@@adrianking6309 I’m confused. Did you not watch the video? The red cables ran by them self?
@@NBundyElectrical 🤔👏
I don't care, I call it hoover as well. 😀
my new house is going to need a rewire rougly how much would charge for that job ?
30k plus vat.
Thanks for all the details to price off
Great video Nick
u Good job
Hi Nick, do you have a grey spot of the top of your head and has it been checked out?
Yeah I have a white patch of hair mate, why would I have it checked dude?
@@NBundyElectrical I don't want to alert you or anything. It can be from loads of normal things. Genetics, Vitiligo and even stress. In some cases it can be a sign of a brain tumor. Although this depends on how long you've had it and how quickly it came on.
Why so many cat 6
While you're running TE etc, might as well run Cat6 - for cameras, computers, printers, Wireless Access Points, Phones and pretty much anything.
The only reason He’s done that is for the cameras it’s a one off 🤣
Please DON'T use metal utensils on Teflon / non-stick coatings. Thank you kindly, carry on
Imagine a plumber being the first to like and comment (passion4plumbing)
You can run HDMI over cat 6 but don't buy the cheap ones they won't work properly
HDM ?
A tidy site is a good is always a good site, loving the cable runs😀. 02:41 NO, NO, NO, it is NOT CO2 it is just CO, (CO2 is what you get in fire extinguishers that have a horn) If you are not told you are in error, how will you ever get it right?
🗨Might I suggest you add another smoke alarm, connected to the shed smoke alarm, and do NOT connect the shed smoke alarm to the house smoke alarms. Reason being, if the shed smoke alarm activates, how will they know it is the shed? 👀you don't want everyone running out the house into the shed area.
Worlds best umm can you actually claim that?
That's a joke by the way!
👍👌
Has the owner not heard of Wi-Fi and Bluetooth? In my refurbishment I don’t even have light switches hard wired to ceiling lights.
As others have said, it's CO, not CO2...but we all knew what you meant...so stop being so nitpicking! Or NICKpicking!
Just do not understand why you keep installing mains smokes etc. Wireless radio interlinked save time, labour, cable and other materials, and if faults develop later you know it's not the wiring!
Big thumbs up for vacuuming out under the floorboards...a neat worker is a conscientious worker!
There's actually a spec on the type of smokes in BS5839, you should ideally always be installing Grade D1 (which is your standard mains with battery backup smokes), for rentals and in scotland I believe this is a requirement, unless not practicable.
In a rewire there's no excuse.
Can’t for the life of me see the customer use 1/4 of those data cables. 20 years ago yes but everything is wireless these days. I know nothing to do with you it’s what they wanted,
Wireless is for Amateurs ;) You can do much more with cable - and faster too
It's only a house with a home office from what I see
In Oz we cannot run the fire with the Comms ….is the fire 230v?
