    THIS WINDOW COULD HAVE FELL OUT !!! 😡ALTERATION JOB PART 3
    WE ARE BACK ON THE WINDOW / LINTEL JOB TO FINSH UP. WE DID THE TOOTHING OUT WITH THE TRUSTY SAWZALL, ALSO REMOVING THE 3/4 S TO MAKE THE NEW BRICK WORK NEATER.

    Thank you both from Nellie and myself. A fantastic job, you really earned your corn on this one. Saving our money to have you guys back for some more lintel replacement on downstairs windows.

    That was one heck of a long day's graft - as you said Steve, so satisfying, but knackering. How you are managing with your hip is beyond me, those ladders were so obviously bloody painful. Well done the pair of you, great teamwork.

    Not just windows. Years ago I lived opposite a bungalow which had a large folding door at the rear. One day there was an enormous crash of glass as the entire frame fell out. Amazingly nobody was hurt but it was still a shock. And what was holding the frame in. A bit of expanding foam and the silicon applied round the edge.

  • @pm7067

    No doubt the original window fitters supplied a self-certified Fensa certificate for that cowboy install, but I got a 1 month delay buying my house because there was no Fensa certificate for the kitchen window, despite it being properly fixed and sealed! Gotta love it!

    Hey lads, loving your channel. My grandfather was a top notch brickie in London from a long line of bricklayers and plasterers (and gasholder builders!). I still have a bunch of his old trowels and whatnot. His biggest job that we know of was as a foreman on the building of the magnificent Freemasons Hall in London but he loved getting off site and doing the sort of work you fellas do, garden walls, extensions, through lounges, bricking up windows, roofing and the like. He also went to Norfolk to build airfields early in WW2. He worked constantly, way beyond retirement until cancer got him at 76 in 1983 when I was only 8. He lived a remarkably full and happy life and if he had lived longer or I had come along earlier there's a fair chance I would have gone into the trade, as it is I only have vague memories of him playing his upright piano at Christmas while us kids played pass the parcel. I've definitely inherited the love and satisfaction for hard manual work from him.

    • @SteveAndAlexBuild
      @SteveAndAlexBuild  Рік тому

      He sounded like an amazing man . The trade could do with more Pepe like him but it is a dying trade unfortunately.

    • @daverogerson5969

      Instead of using strongbow and akros they are clamps which apply sideways pressure to the brickwork above and are linked together with a scaffold tube

    @alanhughes-wh1gj Рік тому +1

    I do wish you would leave Alex alone. Bricks do not get ready to use by themselves, mix does not do itself. All of these jobs are time consuming and tiring especially if climbing up ladders, obviously those comments must be from people who have never done anything manual. Then finally is the clearing up to be done. Its a team effort and when appropraite Alex does grap the trowel.
