Great work Rob and glad to see you doing well going it solo. Also great to see more progression with the lofts than we used to see before, but with this huge space will we get to see it nearer completion?
Cheers Rob, great to see you posting. With the amount of floor, wall and roof insulation you've put in the loft, what sort of range does it improve/increase the downstairs?
Hi Rob, would you mind letting me know the type and thickness of the foils and PIR used and the calculation of the uvalue for the walls and roof? Thanks
Its hard to give you a price range as all our conversions are custom to every loft. we would be happy to do you a free quotation, if you drop us a message at builditwithrob@gmail.com Ive never used the foil bubble and i dont think it would be up-to regulation
Fantastic work Rob the steel structure looks stronger and better made than the company you used to work for you seem a lot happier 😀working for yourself well done mate. It's just a shame you support Leeds
I love your attention to details, the slivers of Kingspan to fill the metal studs is brilliant. Many years ago I had a similar extension built and we were 8 months before it was truly water tight. Your a great tradesman.
@@builditwithrob I agree. The thing I’ve noticed over the years as I’ve watched your videos is your attention to detail. For example putting all the cladding tiles up ready to go for the next set of tradesmen to just crack on. Love it. Well done Rob. I hope to have a loft conversion with you soon.
Another great job. The only comment I'll make is the lack of mask when cutting the insulation (I appreciate a jigsaw makes less than a circular, but there will still be breathable particles in the enclosed loft - look at the debris on the floor)
Best way is to put it through a table saw with extractor on the back, still need a mask on though. It's super fast and the cuts are straight and square.
Thank you for the comment, depending on the size of the build RSJ and timber beams can be more costly and time consuming. The advantage is time and labour saved. its also water proof and flame retardant. Its also lighter weight than RSJ and timber frames which means you save on cranes and extra man power.
I am really happy to see you prospering so well since you left ECO Truss. They made a mistake letting you go; as you was the one driving all the business, and I am sure all who approached them asked for your direct installation. I am sure your step son is happy as well knowing, his step father will not fire him for foolish reasons. God bless you, your business and family sir 🙂
@@builditwithrob I would add that I think you should; reach out to all of your old sponsors, from your Eco Truss days-to continue sponsoring you as are independent. It was you alone that brought in huge traffic to your sight and business.
I can't deny, I must recognise the craftsmanship 👍 But you are missing some key points in your presentation. Is this better and cheaper then the old 'I' steel beams way? Does the structural engineer support your design 100%? Would be also interesting to see what load can these steel frames support.. Aka if anyone wants to install solar panels later on 👍
Thank you for your comment, it is hard to please everyone. Yes when you calculate the price of the RSJ and timber beams, along with the crane and extra man power needed. Yes my system is cheaper. Structural engineers and building control 100% support this system, they find it easier to work with. Yes once installed the roof i.e the steel kit can take the weight of solar panels.
Why has neighbour left that car there,🤔because they are rubbish neighbours,why would you make it awkward for worker's,just oarkbit on road out of way,some people,😡 great job as per Rob.👏👏
@@builditwithrob I would have it done as my loft is quite big, but the regs about having to have fire doors and a corridor to the exit makes it impossible.
