Anstiss Limited . We would happily go deeper if it was nice n soft , that Clay was like bloody iron ! 😬😂😂 Thanks for watching and commenting 🧱👍🏼

Karl Medina lol 😂😂no worries , I wish I had a pound for every time I got bollocked for those dam ties . I won’t be making that mistake again 😬🧱👍🏽

@@SteveAndAlexBuild 😂😂😂😂, I bet you wont👍👍

Karl Medina 😬🧱👍🏼

Wayne Bailey Cheers Wayne . Oh that grab wagon ! He was a superb driver , worth every penny 👌🏼🧱👍🏼

lifesaver? yes, with that mix (2 tsp cement, I gain sand, and 2 pebbles to 6 gallons of water, anyone in the area during that pour needed to have been wearing one. The only air to stir outta that mix was 'err'.

MÃO NA OBRA MIRO STARSUPER 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🤩🙏🧱👍🏼

roger cask . If they could dig with there phones we would go onto a winner then 😂😂🧱👍🏼

Jim Newlands . Mmm put a spade thigh a water main once , it was a bit wet 😬💧💧💦💦. As for the extras we have very patient understanding customers 🧱👍🏼

Mark Hep . Your not kidding Mark , pain in the bum and a bit of a shock too 😳😂🧱👍🏽

@@SteveAndAlexBuild i would have had a hart attack lol i have had some bad ones but yours wow

Mark Hep Once the concrete was in and the muck was gone I relaxed a bit 😬🧱👍🏼

@@SteveAndAlexBuild relief lol i once pulled one out with digger that fed the street the full Trench filled up with you no what wish I had the camera then 😂

Mark Hep 😬🤦🏼‍♂️💩💩💩💩💩😂😂🧱👍🏼

spenceational86 . Will do pal 🧱👍🏼

@@SteveAndAlexBuild thank you

Tom Vincent . Exactly mate , Rodian Montigue is so lucky with all that lovely sand 👌🏼🧱👍🏽

Addicted to Projects mmm wasn’t fun , I think the customer would rather have the house bigger than the garden. It’s not a massive extension but will make a huge inpact on the ground floor 👌🏼👍🏼🧱

Rodian Montague Builds Lol 😂 all those pipes were a big shock 🥵. As for the saws , I have plenty of saws thanks, just not many teeth 🦷😬😂😂🧱👍🏼

Mike Seymour . Happy inside ? I wasn’t happy outside too! 🥵😂😂.its always a relief when that concrete goes in 👌🏼🧱👍🏼

@@SteveAndAlexBuild well done mate!

Mike Seymour . Nice one , thanks mike 🧱👍🏼

Ronnie Biggs . Cheers Ronnie. I worked with a couple of lads who did just that . They had a few flags up before they realised 😂😂😂🧱👍🏼

Yup I remember my father in law took a bay out of a bungalow prior to realising it was the wrong house 😂😂

Ronnie Biggs 😱🤯😂😂🧱👍🏼

LookitsMeNotYou Morning pal . It was a tough dig and very little space to work in and terrible access . it was a massive relief when the grab wagon got into the entry as there was nowhere to put skips 😬🧱👍🏼

justy crusty . Got 2 days left now , finish brickwork and a day taking the back out of the house out ( steels done ) The drainage was a lot of work to divert and put right 🧱👍🏼

Gerry Quinn 💪🏽🧱👍🏼

TheDavecharlton . I keep saying it’s my last dig but keep doing them , I must be mad !🤪🧱👍🏽

Thanks pal , I knew it would be cramped working conditions but you never know what your going to find under the ground 😬🧱👍🏼

The Agenda . Not too bad pal 😬🧱👍🏽

Michael Russell . We were sweating Michael, they were a big shock and slowed the dig right down ! The worst ones were coming out of the house straight down our trench 😩🧱👍🏽

Stewart rs4 Cheers Stewart, That breaker is worth it weight in gold 👌🏼, have a great weekend see you next week 🧱👍🏼

David Brightman Absolutely! That grab wagon was a life saver 👌🏼🧱👍🏽

. The whole job has been a challenge but enjoyable, the best way to concrete ....... get someone else to mix and barrow it 😂🧱👍🏼

Thanks it was a massive pain 😩🧱👍🏽

Darren Louis . Cheers Darren , it certainly was . Thanks for watching and commenting🧱👍🏼

james d . That was one good thing the depth . I can’t tell you how relived I was when he managed to squeeze that huge wagon down that entry 😬🧱👍🏼

MARK FINN . Cheers and thanks for watching and commenting pal 🧱👍🏼

wheaten bread . That bloody van just cost me nearly £700 to get through it’s mot . I used to love it but gone off it now 😩😂😂. It’s mixed on the wagon so the first barrow or two are always ropey 😬🧱👍🏽

@@SteveAndAlexBuild£700 is a bit of a hit on the old sky rocket but we would earn nothing without our vans 👍

wheaten bread . Absolutely mate , had it 4 years and 9 months and its been a great van 🚐👌🏼🧱

You ever seen a tradie van in peak hour traffic? Didn't look sped up to me! :)

Sideslip 😏😂😂🧱👍🏼

Not heard of one of those 🤔🧱👍🏽

Jim Jam . Cheers Jim , very kind . Have a good weekend pal 🧱👍🏽

danny wilkins . It was a shock every time we found one but we got there in the end 🧱👍🏼

Chris Whitehead lol Chris , we were quite literally digging through a lot of hardcore 🥵😬😂🧱

Had one like that in Stockport

Chris Whitehead . Mmmm the ground is grim up north 😬🧱👍🏼

Was goin to give u my number ste but not on Facebook or out like that me how wud i get it to u

Chris Whitehead not sure pal , dont know how all this social media malarkey works 😳🧱👍🏽

dalturbo Thanks pal , much appreciated 🧱👍🏼

Wayne Leone . We just order the concrete. The concrete company mix what you need on the wagon on site and they barrow it in for you . We just level it 👌🏼. Concrete pumps are great but they cost a fortune ! 😱😂 🧱👍🏽

william william Evening William. It’s a Bauker from Toolststion , it’s about £180 but worth every penny ..... it’s a beast 👌🏼🧱👍🏽

I got a Titan from screwfix around the same price, heavy but worth every penny.

Karl Medina . Thanks for the tip mate but those things scare me to death😬, 🧱👍🏼

@@SteveAndAlexBuild lol😂😂i know what you mean but, just found your site today and watched a couple of videos, I've been on renovation for near on 30 yrs, and I hated change but some stuff is for the better and trust me, the 3 things that made my everyday life much easier were, cordless rip saw, cordless hammer drill (for drilling bolts, wall tie, crocodile wall starters, and timbers to walls), and cordless (if possible) reciprocating saw, if it's the sharpness of them blades that look like pad saws which are very sharp, then use one with the smaller teeth like metal cutting blade, I promise you mate you will thank me. We are grafters like yourselves and them 3 tools made our lives so much easier at work. You got some great videos, so keep em coming. But I want to see one where you are tearing thru a 4inch poly pipe with a reciprocating saw, and loving it. 😉

Karl Medina .mmm never say never 🤔🧱👍🏼

@@SteveAndAlexBuild You won't regret it and you'll be kicking yourselves for not doing it sooner! Great work there!

K R Cheers pal 🧱👍🏼

Michael Lovett . Thanks pal , it took nearly all day to re route and re lay all the drainage 😫

vinm300 . Lol 😂😂 Ah the wonders of editing . That dig was 2 LONG! days and the concrete went in on the third day .... As for the shed it took about 10 minutes, it didn’t put much of a fight 🔨 Thanks for watching and commenting 🧱👍🏼

THE1&ONLY Cheers pal , thanks for watching and commenting too 🧱👍🏼

Cre8Brickwork . It was worse than it looked mate 😳. 2 full days hard graft 🥵 thanks for watching and commenting 🧱👍🏼

Alan Goldsbrough 🥵😬🧱👍🏼

Harry Bond . No need mate the ground was solid and building inspector didn’t specify it . It’s 200 mm at the shallowest point 🧱👍🏼

Richard Powell . It’s a bloody expensive van after its latest MOT ! 😳😱😫. And yes it looks like those pipes were put in our way on purpose 🥵🧱👍🏼

zulu59 blue It was a massive shock . We thought we were moving one chamber over a bit 😳. It was a really tough dig . As for the grab wagon he was a total life Saver 🤩🤩🧱🧱👍🏽

Abder Elhoudaigui . Thanks very much pal , it’s a mini series, part 2 next Friday 🧱👍🏼

whats that tool please at 5:48 ?

Woah we don’t envy you pal ! You need to spend a few quid and get the right tools. Get yourself a good quality DIGGING spade and maybe a GRAFTER (long narrow spade ) . The pick you see in the video is called a MATTOCK ( absolutely brilliant tool ) . If you google all the above they are very easy to find , screwfix or Toolststion are good places or any builders merchants. Best of luck with your dig pal and thanks for watching and commenting 🧱👍🏽

@@SteveAndAlexBuild Thanks thats brilliant guys, very much appreciated !!!!!!

Bitcoin CEO no probs 🧱👍🏽

arkansas13 . It’s been a tough one alright 🥵🧱👍🏼

Robbie Mulholland .Cheers Robbie , much appreciated 🧱👍🏼

Thanks pal hope you get sorted 🤞🏼🧱👍🏽

Morning pal . Your right , customers generally go off to work and come back and all the hard graft is done . Most customers love us putting their jobs in RU-vid so they can see just what is involved .As for the breaker it’s from Toolstation and is a Bauker 1700 w heavy duty one , the code is 57455. It’s on offer now so I think it’s under £150 . Worth every penny . My mate has had the same one for years . 👌🏼🧱👍🏽

No @@SteveAndAlexBuild I think I'll purchase one myself.thanks guys

worst nightmare . You won’t regret it 👌🏼🧱👍🏽

laiosto we had a toilet each side , a gulley in the way . A gulley from next door and the soil pipe crossing the trench on the front . A massive pain in the arse ! It’s very rare to put mesh in the foundation unless it’s specified . Thanks for watching and commenting 🧱👍🏽

Mass fill concrete, AKA balls deep 🤣

Helicrete Sydney . It actually was by the house !🏉🏉😳😂🧱👍🏽

Dug one by hand near the old Accy brick factory, ground was full of you guessed it, bricks. Can't beat a brick hammer in a trench for getting in where the shovel can't. Where are you fellas based?

Helicrete Sydney we’ve got a fence post spade and it’s beltin 👌🏼. We are south Lancashire near Wigan , workin in Blackburn 🧱👍🏽

lol , i went to see what you meant and ended up watching the rest of the video

Ross Male . The inspector gave us the ok as it was SOLID . The drains being shallow was very lucky though 🧱👍🏽

@@SteveAndAlexBuild maybe it was just all the mud made the colour look shit, I wasn't criticising though just an observation.really enjoy your videos

Ross Male hey no worries pal , thanks for watching and for taking the time to comment, we really appreciate it 🧱👍🏽

I thought concrete was 900mm deep at least for frost protection. This concrete looked pretty thin.

Adam Woodall not sure on domestic regs but it passed its inspection. On site it not the depth of concrete, it’s the depth of the dig . Even on big houses the minimum concrete thickness is only 150 mm . At the shallowest our was over 200 mm 🧱👍🏽
