    Nice to see someone doing a high quality job! A lot of pro trades people wouldn’t have done that nice a job! I live in Denmark and the whole reason I built our 80m2 extension myself was to ensure a quality end result just like the fantastic work you are producing. Keep it up and thanks for the great channel!

      It's nice seeing a non-professional achieve such an outstanding level of quality. To be fair to the trades people, they have to work efficiently and there isn't often the time to be painstaking. We should all aspire to this level of quality though.

    Great use of a pocket door. I know they're reasonably common in the US, but it seems they've only recently started to gain popularity in the UK. They're great imo, especially when space is tight; I've fitted 4 when creating ensuite bathrooms where space is often at a premium.

    I recently made a cherry pocket door and installed an edge pull similar to yours. I used the domino joiner to cut the mortise for the part which retracts deeply into the door. My door was 1 3/8 inch thick, so I made sure the mortise did not interfere with the surface pulls.

    My understanding of British vernacular has improved greatly by watching this channel over the years. I am, however, stumped by this sentence: "This really was a bit of fussy hardware and also quite fiddly." In my head...those words (fussy/fiddly) are the same. I am intrigued by the difference if it can be explained to an American, please?

    • @jamesgallagher4655

    • @TheRestorationCouple
      @TheRestorationCouple  4 роки тому +1

      No draft as the porch itself is craft proof however I have ordered a brush seal to go down there. My gap is a little larger than planned otherwise I might not have bothered at all.

      Thanks for the support Matt! The front wall's render is pretty sound so likely just paint or this year. The rear I have taken back to block so will be a combo of stone and render. To clad would require full planning permission but may be the future option.
