That wall is a thing of absolute beauty, if that was mine I would pull up a chair and sit and look at it all day ha ha. Between you all you have made a beautiful job of that, so skilled. Best wishes Christine x
When you see how much work goes in to this, then you look at a place like Blenheim Palace, which is not so far from me, and see the wall that goes round that estate, and think what a mammoth task that must have been. Some of those old civil engineering projects, all hand labour, no machines, all those bricks, must have kept an army of brickies busy for their whole lives on one project.
Great work as always Stu, must be really nice to work on such an interesting project from start to finish. I find your videos great, really therapeutic tbh, lol. Ignore the negative comments, unfortunately everyone has a voice these days, you cant please everyone! Keep up the great work and all the very best with your upcoming development venture.
Have you seen actual tuck pointing I'm a bricklayer and I've only seen it on UA-cam and never done it this is actually just pointing or re-pointing if he grinded out some of the old brick work tuck pointing is something totally different you can find videos of it and you are not the only person who gets it confused
Dear Stu, a wonderful work! Which mortar mixture did you use to get this near-white color? And wouldn't be a tuck pointer a litten more comfortable and productive to fill the joints? BR from Germany Wolfram
Great job, I bet those copings weren’t an easy task. I’ve just repointed the back of my house, not a job I’d like to do again😂 Did you flush point the whole wall? It really is a skill, looks A1👍🏻
Can I ask a question as a complete non bricklayer. Why is the mortar not 'piped' in like toothpaste, I guess there's a good reason. Best wishes Christine x
Только с крышкой косяк, не сделали штробу снизу, да и не пойму.... Если хоть какое-то количество воды попадёт внутрь стены, а оно попадёт из-за неплотности плит, то при первых морозах снизу кладку отстрелит.
Did you charge this one by the hour or project. Ton of work to do, seems like you might of under charged with all the extra steps like saw cutting all the old mortar off the bricks. Clean job!
@@notrut Not even sure if insurers would pay out on that. It's not 10k to repair that wall though. It's not rocket science, no footings required etc. Just overly hard mortar.
its been there 200 years and it took a tree to Destroy it I'm sure its fine (total understand what you mean but it isn't cement mortar). plus strong bricks and lime mortar really helps with frost shattering.
@@Stucrompton1 Your videos provided no situational context of how that wall fits in with the overall layout of the property or surrounding area. It would have been nice to see that other wall. A drone shot would have worked well.
@@ronm3245 He's a brickie it's not his fault if you cant work out why people build walls around their properties. If something doesn't make sense to you then try thinking about it....
I don't mean to be rude, but the last few videos covering this wall rebuild have been really good, and then this video comes along 3 weeks later and just seems really poorly put together compared to the others. It still looks great, though.
I am going to be doing a full video from start to finish. There have been many things happening away from UA-cam also the home owners wife has been very ill so that’s why there’s been a delay.
This is more exciting than the England game.

Capo tuti capi Stu👏👏exelente!!!
A thing of beauty,👏👏👏👏👍
nice work it looks brill
Outstanding!
One final reveal video 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
Top job 😎
A wall of beauty
nice job !
Fabulous job
🌳mendous job
Nice work, thanks for the video. The perps didn’t line up exactly - were the bricks slightly different sizes? And was it lime mortar?
There is more movement than in the England game. A slice of cheesecake would be nice afterwards.
amazing job, but i think that many bricklayers calling themselfs bricklayers will have problems build this wall !!!
Нормально! Масон молодец!

I think the pointing looked better hungry but I guess it had to match existing
Bonny job that Stu…

Wondering just how long the pointing will last,,,😊😊 should looked at Machanical way to lift those coping stones..😮😮
Finished wall looks 👌🏼 but why not point it as your built it? Instead of charioting it out and then pointing it?
I wondered the same...
Different mix for the pointing. We built it exactly as it was.
How come? You didn’t point in sand cement did you?
Any joy with the 10” trowel Stu?
Did you charge this one by the hour or project. Ton of work to do, seems like you might of under charged with all the extra steps like saw cutting all the old mortar off the bricks. Clean job!
I'll never be that fast...
Where do you even start pricing that 🤯
No amputated hands while placing the stones I hope😊
I expected the owners to appear with a big 'Thank You' cake ... but no, nothing.
He didn't do the job for free. Prob charged them £5k+
@@John-ou4rm Nah ... I hope the Insurers paid £10K plus.

Если нету прорези снизу на этой бетонной крышке то вся вода будет стекать на стену У меня также было знаю а так всё красиво сделали👍

Ever thought about using a grout bag?🤷🏻♂️
I’ve used before. I prefer pointing.
Where's jan.
I just think having such a massive brick wall right there makes no sense.
It’s the same on the opposite side of the house.
Best not think then.
