      As someone who's been in the field 20 years, let me give you a few tips: never forget to stretch in the mornings before starting work and in the evenings before you get sedentary; always lift with your knees and never twist at the waist with a load-turn your whole body; and no matter what the other guys on the site might say, WEAR YOUR PPE. Head, eyes, ears, respirator, knee pads, safety toe shoes. That stuff is no joke. You never think it'll happen to you until it does and then it's too late. Contracting work can be really rewarding but it can be hell on your body if you let it.

    An architect here with a pro tip! When using a floor leveling compound or a self-leveling topping, I'd suggest providing a double sill plate, that way you have plenty of room to level, up to the thickness of your first sill plate, and then you still have room to nail your gyp or other finish! This even helps in new constructions where the floor sheathing is relatively level, because we often spec a 1/2" to 3/4" thick gypsum floor topping to help with the acoustics of the floor assembly! Love the videos, keep up the good work guys!

  • @passatgt
    @passatgt 13 днів тому +9

    What i did for self-leveling is that i drilled in some tiny screws around 1 meter apart, set the laser on the ground, marked it on my screwdriver and i adjusted all the screws in/out to create a level surface. Then spray painted the screw heads bright yellow so i can see it and then it was really easy to pour in and adjust push it around until it was level with the scewheads.

I keep hoping my delinquent grson will watch the videos I send him and pray the light will turn on in him to get an apprenticeship instead of just talking about it. God works in mysterious ways His wonders to perform, so absolutely NOTHING is out of the realm of possibilities for Him. You boys never know just how God can use your building business and or your videos to transform lives. THANKYOU for the dedication to getting it right and keeping it Light. Blessings y'all from Ipswich. I pray you'll help turn a lost delinquent into a prodigal son. 🇦🇺🤗🙏💞👌👍✌️👏✝️🇺🇸

    When butting into imperfect masonry it really helps to grind out a channel for the wood to slide into…essentially mortise out the stone. Make 2 to 3 vertical kerf cuts typically abt an inch deep & chip out the masonry then just slideeee in the veneer(whether it’s sheathing, hardy corner board, etc)

    I am definitely the Jaime in this situation.
    Always long walls first then shorter with shorter pieces.
    Also what is being done needs to be answered, followed by why we will choose to install in this manner.
    Working backwards from what is the intended look is the best chance for success.
    I enjoy scribing....a tip before attaching scribed substructure, use it to trace on to the trim.
    I am often accused of overcomplicating a situation, but also a better result.
    Ya'll have a good ying and yang from the brothers- the other 3 guys!

    Powder into water always, also IMHO they have the best tile grout on the market pretty decent adhesive and liquid waterproofing membranes.

    Love your shows. If I ever built a house anywhere near y'all - done deal! Thanks so much for taking the time to share these. Regarding the vapor barrier, what about the concrete under the 2x4 wall plates? Wont this attract moisture and allow this to creep up into the walls?
