A brilliant job done by Steve and Alex showing how to safely and correctly install steels using the acros to support where needed and to build up blockwork shut opening using correct dpc and wall ties and the installation of pad stones and packing up with wedges between steel and joists ! A great tip for keeping existing brickwork up and saving extra work or an injury well done Steve and Alex for a tidy and well executed and explained job 👏
If you know a joiner get him to cut you a bag folding wedges for when you have to pack timber joists off RSJ'S , 2 wedges pushed in opposite each other to form a flat packer to what ever thickness you need. Before you slide the wedges in shoot some CT1 on the steel and apossing faces of the wedges and the joist to stop them moving over time.
Yet another good day at the office. Never cease to be amazed at your attention to detail and work ethic. Steve, Alex, your customers are so lucky to have you as their chosen builders, great job guys!
Hi Steve & Alex. Nice again guys. You make it look so easy. Felt for you when you had the steel up and take it back down again. And I say again how tidy and the clean place is. I know a few who would of put under the floor. Nice job. Looking forward to Monday for the extension you said about that you would be starting. Have a good weekend guys. 👍
Fantastic work and looks top quality as always Steve and Alex. Cheers for the video. Hope you and Alex and family are doing well and have a relaxing weekend after tomorrow
Brilliant! I could show my wife how the back door is going to be blocked up and how the steel beam would have been fitted if we had gone ahead with extending into the garage. Thanks.
Guys I've been a subscriber for quite a while and frankly I have to say you attention to detail and the way you explain the work and why you do it certain ways is simple credit to how good workmen and builders should be, the trade I massively lacking the customer care element to workman ship and the personal pride for the work you do! Well done both of you 👏
Nice to see you two getting stuck into something other than an external lintel replacement, garden wall, or rebuilding a small extension… I have hopes that in the non too distant future you’ll be buying a crabby old place, demolishing it and building s brand new spanking place…onward and upward… enjoy your vids guys…👍🏻
Quality work as always boys, I wish more 'tradesmen' and I use that term lightly had your attention to quality and detail. One comment if I may..........and nothing to do with your work. The welding on that beam connection, looks a bit ropey...........looks like its been done with a welding set bought on Ebay !!!
Cracking job. It always needs a bit of patience and you guys have got it in spadefulls. Really enjoyed this one... from a distance that is. Cheers. Bob (Weston super Mare)
In your area, do you ever use powder fasteners/Hilti to fasten steel together? It is quick and easy, there's no need for a welder and they are strong, they won't come apart. This is fairly common here in New York State for commercial construction, less common for residential (less use of steel).
Hi, I thought the law changed that all steels had to have a certificate to show that the steel had been worked on by people who had been certificated, which cost 10's of 1000's of £ to get. So if you want to alter it in any way you must get someone who is qualified to do the work and give you a new certificate. the flange you cut looked like it should have been bolted to the existing beam has it had holes in it and would have been calculated for. The flange that was welded looks like it was not fully welded, why was that? many thanks
Never heard of that law to be honest . I’m not a welder so I trust the guy who has many years experience. Lastly the whole job was inspected and signed off by building control 🧱👍🏽

Oh my God the steel did not get welded and the house will collapse and the neighborhood will burn and the widespread panic will cause the fall of the British Empire and the world will descend into chaos and life as we know it will be over. Or not.
I’m so impressed with the tidiness and execution of the new steel insert you guys. Excellent work.
