IN THIS WEEKS VIDEO WE CUT OUT A 600MM X900MM WINDOW OPENING IN A CAVITY WALL OF A HOUSE TO FORM A BRAND NEW WINDOW IN A KITCHEN.
WE SHOW US SETTING IT OUT , CUTTING WITH OUR BLUE BOSCH 9" ANGLE GRINDER AND THEN DRILLING WITH OUR TITAN SDS PLUS DRILL.
WHEN BOTH SKINS ARE OUT WE MIX SOME SAND AND CEMENT WITH RED DYE IN
WE THEN INSTALL A NEW CAVITY WALL LINTEL THEN A CAVITY TRAY. WE THEN START REPLACING THE BRICKS STARTING WITH THE 2 COURSES OF STAFFORDSHIRE BLUES INCLUDING SOME WEEP VENTS. THE TOP BED JOINT IS RE POINTED WITH A TUCK POINTER/FINGER POINTER TO MAKE SURE IT IS FULL.
NEXT THE INSIDE BRICKWORK IS BUILT TO FINISH THE JOB......ENJOY

Love your content guys I’m a brick myself and love watching videos like this and people doing a proper job! Just a tip for when you’re filling in the last joint with mortar turn your trowel upside down it stops the handle getting in the way when you use the finger trowel to force it in, please don’t think I’m telling you how to do things because you guys are great and I can’t stand the idiots who are always telling other people they’re wrong on what to do, you keep putting out the great content guys!

@coachwilson2120
@coachwilson2120 4 года назад
Good job laying the brick, But you cannot just plumb cut brick jambs. The first 1" of the brick jambs are exposed. You have to tooth out the halves. If the window frame comes out past the face brick, it will probably not be sealed right?
@SteveAndAlexBuild
@SteveAndAlexBuild 4 года назад
For the sake of seeing 30 mm of face on the reveals toothing out etc would make the new window stand out like a sore thumb. The chances of matching the bricks and getting the mortar colour spot on are quite slim and would be very obvious just walking past. Just doing the cut is a stronger job and is only noticable up close. Thanks for watching and commenting 🧱👍🏽
@andrewpaxton6982
@andrewpaxton6982 2 года назад
Yes your right it would stand out alot more if you tooth them out good job but the two cracked blue bricks you put in does drop this one to a 6/10 sorry
@DrawingTechnical
@DrawingTechnical Год назад
@@SteveAndAlexBuild In construction books it says the proper way is to tooth out the bricks, but your point makes sense. The way you did in the video with the grinder is a better way of minimising bad looking edits to the wall.
@johnblackburn7673
@johnblackburn7673 4 года назад
Looks great guys. Love this channel every job shown from start to finish. Those final joints look a complete pain to do. It might sound a bit daft you being an accomplished brickie and me being just a know it all Plumber but instead of using your trowel would it be worth using one of those pointing guns. You know a mastic gun on steroids. Or would it just be too much hassle filling and cleaning it. Then you could just pump the stuff into the joint and use your finger trowel to help push it in. Or would that be like you telling me how to solder a joint lol

Just a pity the inner leaf hadn't been Thermalites, I love it when they are, you can cut them from the outside with just a panel saw, and use your grinder cut on the brickwork as a guide...sheer luxury...But I'd do little jobs like that all day long, especially on this mind numbing lock down...But just to add a rider, those frog downs are a pain in the arse, I'm not criticising here, but what I like to do on these jobs, is to tap in some slate packers on the last course, then pump the muck in with my pointing gun, you know you're safe for achieving a full joint that way, and it's a tad quicker and easier

I'm not a brickie so know nothing about this, but shouldn't you support the brickwork above the opening before you remove all the window bricks? I mean until that lintel is in place couldn't it all just collapse at any moment? Seems the acro bar goes up to support the inner wall only, but after all the brick removal, and there is no support for the outer wall - isn't that dangerous?

Sorry I have another question what brickhammer would you recommend a 16oz estwing a Stanley fatmax or a ox brickhammer thanks
@SteveAndAlexBuild
@SteveAndAlexBuild 4 года назад
Kyle Arts . The Estwings are very expensive ! , I’ve never liked them either . I have an ox but not keen on it and fat max gear is going down hill . If you go to the description below our videos and click on the ck brick hammer that’s the one we prefer plus if you buy one we will get a small commission at no cost to you ( sorry about the shameless plug ) 😬😂👍🏼🧱

It would be easier for you to google “ Cavity Tray “ as it would take too long to explain in the comments.😉🧱👍🏽

Why take three courses out above please? You could have slid lintel in from inside surely.
@SteveAndAlexBuild
@SteveAndAlexBuild 3 года назад
Just one course leaves no room to install a new cavity tray which is essential 🧱👍🏽

@SteveAndAlexBuild
@SteveAndAlexBuild 4 года назад
Retro Please .The cracks are only surface cracks in solid brick so not an issue . The work is remedial so we are working to what is already there so putting a level on that lintel is completely pointless ! As for the speed ..... we were done for 2 so I’d say that’s fast enough .
@SteveAndAlexBuild
@SteveAndAlexBuild 4 года назад
Shinobi . Because they were only surface cracks I’m happy there won’t be any problems and at the end of the day if there is a problem I will rectify it . I could very easily have edited that part out but nobody is perfect 🤷🏼‍♂️
