    nice way to transfer the level I learned. You should Definatly pick up the orange dead blow hammer from b and q. Its rubber filled with sand. Incredible for hitting bricks and window plastic etc. well worth it no cracks and it somehow gives you more hit from less effort. Not for demolition work but just tapping bricks.

    Basement blocks with handles ie indent for muck have been used in Germany since the eighties how slow are we in this country to develop materials to make work easier , what I learnt in Germany and East Germany on the trowel was amazing and coming back to Blighty to lay bricks was way behind , keep up the good work young man

      Hi mate, I've only just brought it last Thursday. This is the E60 model, so the cheapest of them all. So far it's been awesome mate. Not had any issues whatsoever and for the price, which was 320 quid with VAT, amazing but of kit, would definitely recommend mate

    Quick question I'm getting a floor extension out the back of my house, block on block both sides then 2.5,feet front side with windows on top, the builder says we need 900 mm footings I think he's wrong or is he write 7 foot block work on each side then felted roof

    • @IzzytheBricky
      @IzzytheBricky  Рік тому +1

      Hi mate. Digging footings 900mm deep is quite common practice. Especially if they are going to be load bearing walls (such as carrying a felted roof) in my opinion, I would trust your builder 🤜🤛

      Hi mate! Good question. The footings were 2.4m deep. To pour that much concrete would not be cost effective at all. Also with the footings being 900mm wide, we would have used close 60 cube of concrete 😂

    • @IzzytheBricky
      @IzzytheBricky  Рік тому

      Ayup Andy! Hope you're well buddy! As the footings were so deep, it was more cost effective to build up in trench blocks. Usually I have my footings set 450 from FFL. This allows 1 trench and 3 blues 💪
