FITTING A BATHROOM FROM SCRATCH | PART 1 

You are one talented man. There is very little that could be improved on this job. Better than my plastering for sure

i've never commented on a RU-vid video before in my life but what you're doing and your channel is brilliant!. You plastered my house in 2019 and 2021 and i thought then what a top bloke you are. When i asked for advice installing my bathroom you gave me your best tile drill (which I've still got if you need it back he he). Keep the videos coming mate. you're a natural 🙂

This will piss some people off, your plumbing carpentry and electrical work is better than those who do it full time 😂 bet your tiling will be spot on too. Nice one mate superb job.

Use flexible tile adhesive instead of cement on tray, much better and allows for movement on wood.

Tell you what kirk that looks as good as any plumber could do fantastic job mate

Bloody hell, my heart started pounding when I seen your little lad stood on the ceiling 😮‍💨

Im a plumber.. ya pipework was bang on m8 (for a plasterer) :D. Was nice seeing the process, proper tidy job.

Get Roger Bisby out to put some correct brackets on that flue in the loft pal👍 really good work mate👍 keep up the great videos.

lm a plasterer of many years and do all jobs in my houses, l think most plasterers are very skilled, good work.

So impressive, the attention to detail and consideration for the next workmen is admirable.

Might get into trouble here . A decent proper thinking about others plasterers makes for the best plumber sparky chippy because a decent plasterer knows its all about the best end results for everyone involved and if your the only one involved then it all needs to be covered to be sure of these top results👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

looking forward to seeing the next parts great video Kirk

Found the channel by accident, for some reason you tube thought I needed to see plastering, now I can’t get enough 😂 Great work mate, something satisfying about watching the skills in action.

I just redid my bathroom without any experience. You're doing a better job than me m8, well done!

Hi Kirk, I’ve just gotten into your videos via the skill builder channel. I’m an elecchicken! 🤣 Nothing wrong with a fan isolator in the loft, their main purpose is just for maintenance ie cleaning and replacing… it makes good sense to have it in the loft when you use an inline fan. Did you consider an inline fan? I find fans do a better job when ceiling mounted or you use an inline with a vent in the ceiling. Just incase you don’t know, if the fan is in the shower tray area it should be a low voltage one, 12v. Anyways I’m loving your videos and look forward to seeing the bathroom finished. Top bloke and a top tradesman, if more people were like you the world would be a far better place, keep up the great work Kind regards Dave

Spot on! ❤

Great job lad well done

I’m amazed by your work!

Great vid... work looks spot on 👍

I always silicone the rubber seal to the shower tray first makes life so much easier when it comes to attaching the trap to tray

Hi kirk Superb mate that's why I love my job . As a fitter / welder. In a steel works in wales. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿. So when it comes to plastering bedroom or slabbing my back yard. Plumbing my bath room its grate as this is not my normal work trade. The plumbing looked the finest to be honest. There are some plumbers that struggle to use a spirit leve and there are others that are on top of there game as in all trades I guess. And doing what your doing gives you self satisfaction. As this is out side your normal trader. 🍻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Fantastic job

Good attempt for a plasterer mate a few things id have done different marine ply under the shower tray sbr primer and flexible tile adhesive to bed it down, your boiler flue needs proper brackets fitted on each joint in the loft strap band is a no no over all your on track to a successful job, dont forget tanking of the shower area 😉👍

YEP! ... Like the landing page 🤠 ... No Distractions - No Pop-Ups - Crystal Clear 👍

23:10 that's the ol classic "I thought you were watching him" haha

Jack of all trades but a master plasterer, cracking stuff Kirk, however seeing that little lad walking on the plasterboard, I was waiting for the disappearing act and a trip to casualty.😂

Good on yer Kirk, quality work

If you got a wallpaper stripper try that on old tile adhesive comes off lovely with scrapper.looks sweet

Great job so far Kirk. I totally agree with your saying "a change is as good as a break". I havent worked in construction for over 15 years and every DIY project I do feels more like a hobby. Looking forward to the next video to see how your bathroom turns out

Nice work Kirk! I'm just finishing up my bathroom. Only started it two years ago 🙂... I sympathise with your earache!

Man of many talents there Kirky brilliant job ur lad looks like he will be following in ur footsteps with them hammer techniques 😂😂

Fair play fella, I’ve been renovating bathrooms for a living for years , and I’m impressed with that 1st fix 👏👏

I'm in the same boat has you Kirk. We had a water leak in our bathroom that we did not know about until it trashed the bathroom so I had to strip it all out , your doing a great job !!!!

You seem like a great man Kirk! I like work man who is neat and tidy and does a good job. So hard to find them these days.

A man of many talents..

Watch a lot of your stuff, loved the skill builder bit! Where’s was Roger?! 😂 This looks like a great start! Looking forward to seeing the rest of it!

I lent a lot of tools out and forgot who i had lent them to ,so know i still lend tools out but i take a picture of them with the tool so i can keep track of who has got what.

Kirk, Great job. Been there and done it. Brings back fond memories.I done a very similar job to what you have done 20 years ago. Check if you meed to strap your plumbing fittings to earth

The little chap was checking you weren't slacking while out of sight in the loft 😂. Really enjoyed watching for entertainment value and the work put into it

As a plumber mate I can say that's a top job well done

Brilliant forward thinking.

Kirk. Thought you made a real tidy job of the electrics 👍 Im a retired lecky and impressed

Top job mate not just plastering u do 😂

Lovely job just move extractor fan to ceiling mate it's too low . Bang on job

I’m a plumber mate and I can’t fault it. Looks better then I would do👍

Roger was very impressed with your work on his channel 👏 👍

i love you man your such a good and funny guy

Better than a lot of the plumbing I see. Not sure what you have got running your hot and cold water but you might have a problem getting enough flow to supply that shower head,apart from that bloody good work 👍

Great little man you got there, brought back very happy memories of my 2 boys, enjoy they grow up 2 quickly. 😊😊♥️🇫🇷🇫🇷

Use kettle water on the tile adhesive. A bit like wallpaper it softens up an flys off 👍

Great Vid Kirk m8, I was Watching Leighton Drilling ya Wall for the Vent from my Back Door, wondering if he was going to fall off in the wind lol. Keep the Content coming m8 x 🏆
