BRICKWORK NEARLY COLLAPSED... THIS IS HOW WE AVOIDED DISASTER !!! WE ARE BACK ON THE CRUMBLING CANOPY JOB TO INSTALL A LINTEL OVER THE FRONT WINDOW.
THERE HAS NEVER BEEN ONE AND THE BRICKWORK IS VERY SKETCHY THE WAY IT HAS BEEN BUILT.
IN THE PROCESS OF REMOVING THE SOLDIER BRICKS THE WALL ABOVE STARTED TO COLLAPSE WHICH CAUSED A MAJOR PANIC.
BY THE TIME WE GOT ORGANISED IT WAS VERY LATE WHICH IS WHY THE VIDEO IS IN 2 PARTS....ENJOY PT 2 🧱👍🏽

Forget the day and a half book it as two days , you and Alex must be the cheapest around but do the best job . If people want a quality job they will pay a bit extra and you two are quality.🤜🏻🤛🏻

@SteveAndAlexBuild Месяц назад

Cheers Marc 😬🧱👍🏽

Loved Mark and Lard, ‘ when Radio One was good’ …couldn’t agree more! Happy days when we were allowed to have a sense of humour !!

Absolutely Charles so true 🧱👍🏽

Steve, I know you have explained previously how 'Triangulation and Friction' stopped bricks collapsing when you remove courses - but Holy Shit, that's taking the theory and practice into un-chartered territory! But, wise head gets it right again, stop, cuppa, think, then act decisively. Hope you showed the Customer the videos of what you had to do! Thanks for sharing, keep safe both of you! Oh, and, bloody well spotted Al, you may have averted a calamity!

Al the main man 🤜🏽🤛🏽🧱👍🏽

Hi Steve &Alex. That was a bit scary there for a minute. But I know you get I sorted. Well done on Alex for spotting that. Good job as always guys. Have a good weekend 👍

Your approach is surgical, cut out the crap and mend with new. So skilled!! Just wonderful to watch and to know there are guys like you to keep our houses from collapsing.

That was the old trick of removing wooden window and fitting pvc with no lintel, but adding virtually free hanging soldiers i think. Good job on the recovery. 👍👍

@leebowley6953 Месяц назад

well done, looked like a tricky one. Why do you have to support the lintel when you start rebuilding and why do you not treat the end of the lintel when you cut it down? Any galvanizing protection has now been compromised and will rust and the lintel is lonely 3mm. Can't see that lasting 70 years.

@the_royal_drop_short. Месяц назад

When I was fitting windows, I used to grind out 3 or 4 perps above any loose brickwork and drive in hardwood wedges to lock the bricks horizontally. take out what you need to fit the lintel, then rebuild.

I noticed your hawk stand/two legs were placed on a narrow strip of wood. I would drill a hole in each/leg-foot. Large enough for a beefy screw. This way if the hawk or wood should shift, it will shift as a single unit. That's my two cents. Omaha Nebraska USA
