    Just bumped into this video after I have finished resizing 3 windows in my house, but this video shows I took the right approach doing this.
    I had a messy looking side wall with windows in different heights and shapes put in every time a new extension was made before I bought the house, but having to replace my aged window frames I decided to make everything look more uniform and bring window sills and lintels to the same height and windows the same width were a first floor window was right above a level floor window.
    Does look a lot better, just as the new window in the video, I don't like the look of these slot ventilators at the top of the window, it makes a house so 1960-70's (worst period in building design).

    If you get a tight brick I use a clip joint , that’s where you shave a few mill off the end of a brick using your trowels edge and a brick on edge as a guide, you end up with a false perp joint but it looks normal

    Great work as usual only 1 question though if that window had to be taken back out fir any reason (I know lokely won't but....) wouldn't it be a pain as the fixings on one side are from the opposite direction so csnt be unscrewed from window side ? Just curious ....in no way undermining your work as ive seen lots of great work you do (I'm a bricky btw) cheers keep them coming

  • @TheFodenmann
    @TheFodenmann 6 років тому

    Nice Job Stu, but not a good idea to screw wall ties to the window frame, if you need to take the window out half the wall comes with it, screw window frame to wall after.

    • @Stucrompton1
      @Stucrompton1  6 років тому +1

      Can’t do that because the mortar takes weeks to go off properly, if it needs to come out in time a good fitter checks for clips like this 👍
