Thank you, this is really helpful, I'm changing a large bathroom into a bedroom and smaller bathroom, so your video has helped loads! If I plan to have a recess in the stud wall for above the bath, presumably I can just support the stud and allow a gap for the recess?
Sorry for late reply…I am very happy my videos helping people… it’s very easy to do a recess… you have to build a timber frame around which you have to screw into the the stud on all ends… I have seen people doing frame which is only screwed into the plasterboard… that’s not good at all… I have done it many times… if that will be in the bathroom, and you gone tile full bathroom, be prepared and gather lots of patience when you have to tile the recess, but when you will see the finish will be worth . Good luck.
Hi there…Thanks for watching my video and thanks for spotting one of very important thing… I have to admit that when I am working, I am so much into the job, that I completely forget that I am filming myself… I have not uploaded a video in a very long time, but I will upload some very soon, and yes I will be more talkative about the job I am doing.😁… thanks again. All the best.
Thanks for watching, I am happy when I can help... I have used concrete screws, I will share a link below. To make a hole, use a 6mm borer, and to fit the screw you need TX30 drill bit. www.screwfix.com/p/easydrive-countersunk-concrete-screws-7-5-x-100mm-100-pack/3839H?tc=VA5&ds_kid=92700048793290424&ds_rl=1249413&gclid=CjwKCAiAnvj9BRA4EiwAuUMDfzDOU0zNUQwmlTf97qhkhKFhckZ49kRUIPRt0knhC8WsqF9J1B0Y7hoC0e0QAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds
but isn't this a partition wall, which is a non-load bearing wall? or, do you still need trimmers under your header even though the wall is non-load bearing?
@@googglekonto7741It's not insecure. It's pretty well fastened down. But, pressure treated lumber should be used on concrete and exterior masonry walls because it will wick moisture and may decay quickly.
My bathroom has had tiles all striped out now floor and walls all uneven we've been told to put stud wall in around back wall cause it single brick should the walls and floor be even first before I put wood stud wall in ... otherwise I'd have to put bits in behind wood to even frame out?
Well, the floor will need self levelling before you do new tiles, so I would do self levelling compound now, and after do the partition wall like this you will have an even floor. As for the walls, you should make the new partition wall at least 50mm away from the existing wall… if you say is a single brick, you should insulate it with a minimum 50mm celotex insulation ( a building inspector would ask you 100mm insulation, but you would lose space), so that way you don’t need to worry about uneven walls. I hope that helps. Good luck.
Hello You make this look really easy but can you tell me what size I need to leave for the door please? Have you any tutorials of adding the plasterboard and how to hang a door? Thanks
Hi, thanks for watching… yes I do have other videos about hanging a door, or do plasterboard… is hard to explain through text… you need to see the width of the door, then how thick is the door frame( I have a video about installing a door frame too), then you need to leave 5mm gap between door and frame on all sides… just look out through my channel and see other videos I have, although they’re other tutorials on UA-cam about that… I don’t know to tell you how good they are as I have not watched them, but I am sure you can find something that will help you. Goodluck 😁
@@askhowtube also in my case i have tile so they won’t break by drilling?and how you check is there any water pipe below? because i am building wall by myself so want to make sure doesn’t make it worst
I cannot guarantee you that tiles won’t crack… when you drill through tiles, don’t set your machine on hammer, only on drilling, but it will be harder to drill this way… but if you set it on hammer, it will crack for sure… now in regards to pipes underneath, there’s a detector which I use to search for pipes and cables in the walls or floors, otherwise you cannot know exactly where they are.
You must do the whole frame to the exact size, and after that put it in position and screw it only into the walls and ceiling… also you can add some gripfill glue on the floor where you cannot screw because of the underfloor heating… I have actually done this few years ago. Good luck 😁
Lady her name... 😁 a lovely dog... she’s usually scared of everything makes noises, but for some reasons she trusted me and felt safe whatever noise I was making 😁
You have to decide what door you want, what size it is… buy the frame, to see what thickness has the frame and calculate all of them… for example if the door is 720 by 2010, and the frame is 30 mm thick, you will create the frame at the door 760mm wide, by 2050mm height… you must leave 10mm extra for the door gap between the door and the frame which I have already added in the calculation I’ve made above… plus you have to calculate what floor you will have. I hope this will help. Good luck 😁
Easy to follow video without a lot of unnecessary chat. As always, the music added noting and was very irritating. I know I can mute it but then I wouldn't know if there were any spoken instructions. Music is always unnecessary on most types of video. I could hardly hear what you were saying at the end.
In another video, this is about making a partition wall with a door( the partition wall will have a door), is not a partition wall without a door. Easy.
Maybe, I could of been add that part to the video, but I thought the video is about doing a partition wall… doing the structure, etc…thanks for watching…
@@askhowtubesorry, I did not put this. I was watching your video . Then left my phone in the room and my work colleague. Who I'm working away with, put this on my phone as a joke.. I myself found your video very clear and informative. Going to have words with my colleague when he wakes up.
Thank you for making this simple to watch
Thank you trying to make a 2 bedro😢om into a 3 bedroom. On a budget . learned a lot thanks again..
Me too~ ☺ how it goes?
Thanks for the demonstration!
Wow great job
what a great video! thank you so much!!
Thanks for watching 😁
Great Video !!
Im going to be building mine this weekend
Thanks, and Goodluck 😁
how did you get on?
@@dsedean i ermmmm messed up the leveling and squaring and forgot to take in to account the weird angles lol
Good job 👍🏾
big help thank you

@@askhowtube thank you for your reply and the advice
one suggestion (from living in the northern US😁)..you want to use green treated lumber for the base on anything against the concrete floor!
Thank you Dan B 😁
Learned from you too thanks for that
Excellent 💖
Hi! Thanks for showing this, could you in a next video explain on why you do certain things and what you should be careful of etc

Thanks for posting this! :D What fixings do you use to fit the studs to the block walls and concrete floor? :)

@@askhowtube Brillaint thank you :)! In your opinion, would you say these give a better fixing than traditional wall plugs + screws?
@@aidansutcliffe9249 definitely
So bore the holes then 6mm with sds into concrete
Can you please tell me what screws you use for the timber , thank you
In U.S. we need to put a 2nd 2 x 4's under both sides of the door header incase the nails in the header fail. We figure that in, when we measure.
yea.it's realy unsecure like this.
but isn't this a partition wall, which is a non-load bearing wall? or, do you still need trimmers under your header even though the wall is non-load bearing?
@@googglekonto7741It's not insecure. It's pretty well fastened down. But, pressure treated lumber should be used on concrete and exterior masonry walls because it will wick moisture and may decay quickly.
@e.l.norton you said, it should ? Or shouldn't be used
Very good video but what screw style are you using to fix into breeze block/ concrete block etc
They are masonry screws. They just require a pilot hole, no wall plugs needed.
Nice job I got to do one of this soon 👍
Goodluck 😁
@@askhowtube thanks 🙏
How did you fix the timber to the bricks? Can you screw straight into them without rawl plugs?
Magic thanks
You’re welcome…. Thanks for watching.
Thanks.
Me - I hate it when people woffle too much when showing DIY on UA-cam - You “hold my beer” Well doneI could follow what you were doing nicely.
Thanks for your nice comment… all the best 😁
That's a pro
Really good. Thank you. I learned a lot.

Hello mate
What screws u have used as u did not use wall plugs ?
They are masonry screws. They just require a pilot hole, no wall plugs needed.
What measurements are the gap for door width and height
what drill size you used to make hole on concrete and also which nails u used
6 mm drill, and I have used concrete screws… this is how they’re called… concrete screws.
@@askhowtube also in my case i have tile so they won’t break by drilling?and how you check is there any water pipe below? because i am building wall by myself so want to make sure doesn’t make it worst
I cannot guarantee you that tiles won’t crack… when you drill through tiles, don’t set your machine on hammer, only on drilling, but it will be harder to drill this way… but if you set it on hammer, it will crack for sure… now in regards to pipes underneath, there’s a detector which I use to search for pipes and cables in the walls or floors, otherwise you cannot know exactly where they are.
thnks this is helpful and i will buy that detector from home depot then.@@askhowtube
how far apart are the studs?
is there a way to not have to screw into the floor?>
Yes it is… glue it to the floor using pink grip fill and don’t touch the stud wall for minimum 12 hours .
La música de fondo la saco del cajón de las matracas y martillos me duele la cabeza
I like how the dog looks at the camera. Lol
That dog ♥️ ... she’s lovely... the most friendly dog I have ever seen...thanks for watching
How may i do this if i have underfloor heater on
You must do the whole frame to the exact size, and after that put it in position and screw it only into the walls and ceiling… also you can add some gripfill glue on the floor where you cannot screw because of the underfloor heating… I have actually done this few years ago. Good luck 😁
Pups name..?
Lady her name... 😁 a lovely dog... she’s usually scared of everything makes noises, but for some reasons she trusted me and felt safe whatever noise I was making 😁
How do you know what space to leave for door
You have to decide what door you want, what size it is… buy the frame, to see what thickness has the frame and calculate all of them… for example if the door is 720 by 2010, and the frame is 30 mm thick, you will create the frame at the door 760mm wide, by 2050mm height… you must leave 10mm extra for the door gap between the door and the frame which I have already added in the calculation I’ve made above… plus you have to calculate what floor you will have. I hope this will help.
Good luck 😁
@@askhowtube yes very helpful. Thanks
What is recommended for stud wall with door. 3x2 or 4x2 wood?
I would always choose 4x2, but sometimes you cannot because of minimum space required by customer.
Easy to follow video without a lot of unnecessary chat. As always, the music added noting and was very irritating. I know I can mute it but then I wouldn't know if there were any spoken instructions. Music is always unnecessary on most types of video. I could hardly hear what you were saying at the end.

You left out the most important part..... the door!
I don’t get what I have left out? Did I not left space for the door?
@@askhowtube you left the space for it but you didnt show how to measure and attach the frame and hang the door. Thanks for the video tho.
Maybe, I could of been add that part to the video, but I thought the video is about doing a partition wall… doing the structure, etc…thanks for watching…
