A bricklayer is technically only as good as his labourer, if he has a bad one he can't go quickly as he can t do his job so if his labourer is really good and ahead of things the job will.go fast and smooth.
I'd love to run a level to check if there plumb, and across the face.. These guys would not fair well against English Brickies. These are not masons.. Tbh I think they look sloppy, and theres definitely no strength in their walls..
I built a block wall up a hill. The footers had to step up. Of course i had to wheel borrower everything down. An hand mix mud/ cement. It was about 30 feet long an 5 feet high. I never laid a block before. It took me 2 years. And of course i was drinking a little bit. 1 hole row i forgot to stagger my joints. What they done was amazing
what a nice way to ensure you know what builders working potential is and compare them against their records !!! - documented evidence they can work hard and if they are not preforming to at least 80% of their speed they are taking the PISS ! !- waoooo bring this to the UK -
