Beast mode!! Working late into the night!! 👍👍👍
Absolutely loved watching this project progress.
I think we've seen all 4 seasons!
Also, I've always wanted an autofeed, but could never justify the expense for how often I would use it. Please don't make us wait to learn of the hack you've found!
Absolutely great set of vids, thanks for taking your time to film and describe your work. Here's to all of us who undertake house restorations, we're well underway with our third project and I am still learning new stuff every day. Happy new year to you all, Jon
Nicely done man!🔥😎👍🏻
Another fantastic video Tim. Thanks for taking the effort and time to document your fine work. Hope you get some r&r with your family over the new years.
Well said.
You remind me of a chap I did plastering for a few years ago. He was shimming the boards before he put them up on the ceiling 'just to be sure' that it was level in ALL directions. I told him we were bonding the ceilings first and that he really didn't 'need' to go to such extreme lengths ........ His reply was "Yes, but I'll KNOW that the boards weren't level and I can't live with that" ........... HUH?? ...... Bonkers!! ;-)
Sounds like the sort of thing my dad would do actually! 😂
Brilliant stuff. - I am in awe!!! Thanks. Love from Scotland, X.
Impressive work rate and probably for the first time you are glad that another trade is late! Good job.👍
Absolutely fantastic films. So much detail and greatly appreciated. Very pleased to have found your channel. Nice one!
happy new year from China.
Thanks for the tutorial
What a transformation! I know you can fairly taste getting it done!!
A happy new year the conversion is looking great
Favourite customer quote; "Just do this-Just do that" not realising the SMALL jobs take JUST as LONG as the bigger jobs in plastering at least :-)
👀 looks great 🤩. Caught myself sighing with an occasional aaargh watching you sheet rocking by yourself been there on so many DIY occasions lol can have a sense of humor about it now 😝 was glad to see you grin occasionally and shake your head at yourself
Great job Tim, a lot of work in this video 👍🏻 Looking forward to the screw gun hack
You shouldn't have joints at the window/door corners but rather in the middle of the header as they will eventually crack. I like your vids and the effort/research/pride you put in your work... gr8 job!
Yes good point.
Happy New Year to you Tim and all your family
Plasterboardings just one of those jobs 😫
Not sure about double stud but sometimes I like to nog out hinge level to give it a little more rigidity.
Probably makes little difference but makes me feel better 😂
Happy New Year to you Tim and all your family. Looking forward to more cracking vlogs in 2019. Cheers Mate 👍🥂
Very nice. And quite some work!
Great job. Love that lifting device for the plasterboard, speeds up things so much. Happy new year !!
Best wishes for 2019, hopefully you’ll get some downtime and can chillax
top work looking forward to next one enjoyed the video.
I have the same plasterboard hoist which i’ve used many times but i had a carpenter who scoffed at me and proceeded to plasterboard an entire ceiling on his own with 1200mm x 2400mm boards using a self made deadman much faster than i could. On a side note i got to get one of those screw guns they look great
Happy New Year to you all
Great job, I still hate plasterboarding ceilings 😬👍
Try doing it by hand
Jay Seal we’ve done it, full size sheets too and held up with wedges and a brush....we’ll it was a long time ago lol 😂
@@ThePhilandPam plasterers do it in one lift hold it with one hand and screw 😂😂
Jay Seal and Pam balancing it on her head while I whizz screws in around her 😬😂
Happy New Year to you and your family Tim! I have really enjoyed watching all your videos and have been inspired to do more myself in future - thanks!
Loving the board lifter going to have to look into that when I'm building mine as like you I'll be on it by myself late at night probably. Happy new year!
Thanks for sharing buddy, happy new year!
I went through this many years ago - never again! Board lifter would have been useful! Bit of 3 x 2 in at tee section worked OK though. You deserve a medal! Or be sectioned!
Hi! Great videos. I have 2 questions. (1) You go through the trouble of taping up the screws that fasten the foam board to the studs... but what happens when you puncture the foam board with the screws that fasten the drywall (through the foam board) to the studs? And (2) when fastening the drywall to the studs, how do you make sure you don't hit the screws holding the foam board to the studs? Thanks!
i was also wondering about this. Anybody knows the answer?
The screws for the drywall will plug any holes they make, and it's just standard practice. As for not hitting the screws to hold the boards, that's just luck. If you do hit one, just go 15mm up or down from there.
Great channel. Quick question, I'm looking at doing the same but I will be using insulated plasterboards, why didn't you choose this option?
I love a deadline when it's yours not mine :-)
Progress looks much better once boards up :-)
screw feeder was cheating :-/
Happy Holidays ....
Merry xmas Timbo awesome job so far as usual!
Happy new year Tim and awsome job getting every thing ready for plastering looks great :)
Lookin good !
I'm going to be doing this insulation method in my conservatory soon when the roof is replaced, but as somebody else has already asked... Does the plasterboard screw not compromise the vapour barrier on the insulation that you've just taped?
I would highly recommend a chalk line for anyone doing this. It cuts out all the measuring of joists.
Started out with my chalk line but working solo on ladders it only needs to fall out a couple of times and I got fed up. Sharpie on the insulation worked fine. 👍
The plasterer is keen 6am 😳😳🤣🤣🤣
Always easier to start plaster boarding from the top , you may not think it is but it is .
Even easier to buy the right length boards (for the ceiling height) and place them vertically. ;)
That's the way I did it. I just drylined our whole house taking my time to make sure the walls were as straight as I could get them.
I hired a pro with excellent references and 12 years experience to plaster the whole house and I kicked him off site after seeing his work in the first room.
After 3 years, what would you do differently?
Hello Tim and family! Firstly have a great new year and all the best for 2019! Quick question what is the dry lining screw gun adaptor thing you are using with your drill? Looks like it's a great time saver?! I couldn't see it in the links for the tools used.
Cheers Steve
Is that a special dry wall attachment you're using on the cordless screwdriver? I was thinking of getting one for a project I have on the go. How do you rate them?
Ive just built a block and render extension with cavity insulation. Building inspector wants 25mm pir board inside for the u value. My plan was to batten out with 25mm treated timber, pir board between, polythene vapor barrier over the top and plasterboard. Seems a lot cheaper than insulated plasterboard. In your experience what are your thoughts? Great videos by the way
What plasterer turns up at 6am????
I don't know how you find the time to build and film. I can do both on their own. I've tried doing both but couldn't live with the hassle.
Great video as always. All the best for 2019
🎆HAPPY NEWYEAR🎆
It just felt plain cruel watching you do that alone
In the previous video you mentioned about the vapour barrier being super important. But then you've screwed the plasterboard in and cut out boxes for the socket back boxes. Is this just a negligible tolerance?
Screws will self seal to a point and back boxes still had another two layers of foil beyond them. Better option is like we are building currently and use a battened service cavity. 👍
You know that you can use the lift to lift the drywall to the top of the wall. You place it on the hooks like you do when loading than place the hooks to the wall and flip up the drywall and there you go
Never thought to try! Sounds handy.
I have the exact model lift in my basement right now and I did a whole house hung drywall by myself with that lift. Payed for its self in less than a week. I would not hang drywall without it. Did a small little bathroom and you bet I used it in there too. Next time you got to hang some drywall try it. I have also used it to hang plywood and tin in a garage
Hi Tim, great vid as always, can I ask what the dry wall screw cassette attachment is called ? and where I can buy one. Thanks.
Well ur building control is very relaxed cause ur cables aren't zoned. U should have used metal conduit for it to be right
Love how methodical you are, can I ask - what’s your day job?
Have a good new year 👌🏻
Photographer when not working on the house. 👍
The Restoration Couple man of many skills! 👌🏻👌🏻
I love DIY, but I am self employed working 6 days a week. So it is cheaper for me to hire skilled trades to do the big jobs rather than taking a few weeks off work.
I might be missing something, but doesnt this just poke hundreds of holes through the sealed vapor barrier (the taped up shiny side of the insulation panels) ?
It's not really a hole if there is a screw filling it. There isn't really any other way to fix the plaster board.
It does yes. It is usually assumed that the screws are self sealing enough to not cause any issue. There is also three further foil layers within the insulation before the other side so minimal risk. It is something I’ll make a video on in the new year though. 👍
The walls were overkill in an effort to beat moisture. I watched a few videos.
1. There is a block wall with render on the exterior as the first defence
2. There is a waterproof membrane between the stud wall and the block work.
3. There is Kingspan in the studwork cavities.
4. The whole thing was overlaid with Kingspan again, and all joints taped up to give a huge insulation boost.
The screws will be sitting snug in the Kingspan, so no drafts will make it through the holes.
Yes it does and we always had this argument when installing a polythene vapour barrier within industrial roofing constructions
Azza 179 definitely more concern with a single poly sheet, I guess with multiple layers of foiled faced insulation the risk is much lower. 👍
Hey, what is that attachment on your Bosch combi drill you are using as a plasterboard screw gun?
All in tonight’s video. 😉 it’s a bit of a Frankenstein but worked just fine. An old ryobi product I think.
@@TheRestorationCouple looks like a handy tool. I found a similar drill attachment on Amazon, the AGT screw magazine. Did even think of looking until I saw your gizmo. Just don't see the point in shelling out for a decent one for my DIY projects.
Thanks for the reply
Btw i hope you didn't go with a Senco screwgun extender - mine is misfiring the life out of me. Grrrr should have stuck with makita as advised!
hi tim. just wondering whats the smallest screws you can get in the autofeed screw gun hack? i need to batten the walls with 25mm to get pir board in between (building regs) if im using 12.5mm board i think ill need 35mm screws. cheers
The 55mm version takes 35mm screws fine however there is another version of the attachment designed to go down to 25mm.
@@TheRestorationCouple thats great. any chance you have a link when you get a min. much appreciated
@@TheRestorationCouple sorry i found the link in the other video. its the guy i messaged on ebay
he told me it goes down to 38mm. im wondering if its worth a go
Matt Sidebottom I got away using 35mm in mine. I did get the other model off him for shorter screws but needs a bit more fabrication to fit the drill. He said to ask if you want other model as not listed.
@@TheRestorationCouple thats great thanks for your help
Pretty sure that on the ceiling you are supposed to have a lot more screws holding it up. I hope you went back and added more then the video showed.
Should have waited for the rest of the video, there was a shot that showed a decent amount. 😁
Great work Tim. With regard to the finished floor level, will there not be chipboard beneath the floorboards? I have a concrete floor here and the FFL is 44mm over the insulation, being 22mm +20mm and a bit for glue. Hopefully it is not important but just thought I would mention it. Happy New Year to you and family looking forward to the 2019 vids.
After 22mm chipboard level still left a good 25-30mm gap to play with for final flooring and then cover with skirting so more than enough. 👍
Where did you get your kingspan
Link in previous video.
4:17 I’m just F#Ck@D. Great work.
why didn't you couter batten over the king span? would of made life so much easier
Did mention it in last video. I do prefer doing it that way especially for services but as it was only a 25mm top layer it was easy enough to mark up stud positions and fix through, cabling was done in the sub floor.
No you need timber everywhere a plaster board ends (25 years plasterer).
Its only overshot the joists by 50mm, should be fine with 12.5mm especially with it fully supported and bonded on the insulation. But agreed, best timber fixed on all edges. 👍
@@TheRestorationCouple if its the last joist at the ceiling - wall junction its fine ! my mistake sorry.
Railroad boarding 😩
So much insulation, you will be walking around in your pants ! with ice cubes down em …..
I hate you. You just make it look too easy and I am thinking, “I should really buy a fixer upper”. Meanwhile my wife knows I will get like 25% done and get bored and it won’t get finished.
