THIS FOUNDATION WAS A MASSIVE STRUGGLE FOR ME 

You need to charge more, I think you are following my path and getting the work others don’t want, and the customer knows how good your work is!!

Steve, even with pain and discomfort on an unlikable job, the attention to detail is spot on! Alex, stay positive, another day nearer to seeing your bo again!

That's hard going Steve but you still done it.

All that because the concrete footings were wrong, I assume. Great job and well done for overcoming the pain of your hip. Rest well on the day off.

That’s one thing Steve does make sure it’s right, top builders for me ❤ to Alex

your a beast Steve, what a grafter you are. hats off to ya 🤛👏👏👏

Great job Steve you deserve rest on that job looks like big job 👍👍

really enjoyed this video. You did not do the dig and the levels were not perfect to the gauge. You work hard to get that right and so sometimes your part of the work looks dead easy. So good to see that work involved to getting it right. I like the way you take the time to explain the issues and how you have got over it or the best solution. Keep up the good work

I really feel sorry for you Steve in so much pain and you carry on like an old soldier but good on you , that is some extension ,that shovel you called the grafter looks a bit like one of those new ones on the tell but that,s got a saw edge on it and a good idea on the tape ,thanks very much for the video.

Awesome video thanks for your time and consideration top job top team 🇬🇧

Great job

Your a legend mate keep going

Hard graft and in constant pain my hat goes off to you Steve

oh bricklaying is easy lol great job steve...they have no idea when it comes to extensions i know been there done that never straight forward..the drawings cant see underground it looks ok on paper

Great job lads love watching your video's on here 👍💪

always excellent work

You ask a lot off yourself Steve, maybe to much. But anyway I think your are a great professional and a very brave man. Compliments from your Dutch fan.

Great video as ever but.... some if the music I have to mute!

I would have thought it was asking for trouble feeding an external gulley into a pipe under the foundations, which will presumably be concreted over. But you have to do what the boss wants. Somebody else's problem if it goes wrong in the future. Not a nice site but as usual you make the best of it 👍

Interesting one this steve, but a nightmare at the same time 😢😢 just sayin from North of Newcastle 🧱👍🍺

Almost late! Evening Steve/Alex and you all. 😊

Great video Steve, do you find the green light of the laser better than a red one ??

Big respect steve, You sounded full of a cold and 2 dodgy hips!! It's good job alex is only an employee he'd never get away with leaving his ilk partner doing the work while he's seeing his girlfriend!! Love the channel. Your a real grafter

Looked hard for you Steve bless u soldiered on thou…..ere I heard you say totem timber that’s my supplier down here in Plymouth didn’t know they had any up where you are

take my hat off steve. well done fella👍

Steve, love the work you and Alex do and the vids, but that music!!!

good that alex is back steve get the whip out make up for lost time lol

Great work 👍Two questions: the cavity looks small, was it old or new regs (with internal insultation)? The drain looks low or is it me?

Buen trabajo y buena música🎧

Great stuff - which model of laser are you using?

Have you had new hip Steve? I'm 62 yr old brickie waiting for op. How long did it take before you were back to work? Great vids by the way.

Y el vídeo de la excavación no lo ponéis?....😀

Is it really on Sunday Steve?? Or Monday 1st? Cheers.

Guys that looked like a sod of a job one of the only consolations were that the weather stayed dry imaged had that guy got someone with a poor work ethic and less professionalism to that job wonder how it would have looked?

You got quit the job going there. Looks like a bit of a challenge but I’m sure you guys will get it right in the end. Why didn’t the pour the concrete foundation at a higher level so you wouldn’t need so many courses of blocks to get up to grade. Cheers

Probably the worst possible type of job for you with your hip/leg issues, true grit!

You can pick em 😀I’m convinced your jobs are getting harder

Alright Steve. I think with the trench having such a wide surface area i would of been tempted to bump them up with a mega strong mix.

Just give the young fella the keys off the van have a few days off Steve u must be in agony down in them holes

Reporting AWOL! I was abducted by several pints of Brooklyn!

What on earth is in that lead pipe?

Whats going on with that back door with the panel under?

When’s your knee surgery due?

Never use profiles how out of square it is🤣🤣entry 3 stuff😉👍🏻

You speaking English?

You are a proper man hope you can retire early

Chaps, Some jobs are just like that........An awkward cuss of a job - and you know instinctively as soon as you roll up on site, that its going to be a stinker....!! Following someone else`s work that is poorly built, tight site and lack of room to work properly, materials missing, additional work......and on it goes. "Dont worry- the Brickie will get over it," they say. Sometimes it`s just a long hard slog. And that is the epitome of the building game......! On a different note, I wonder what the life expectancy of those trench blocks is...? I know what the manufacturers say, but I wonder how long they last in the real world.? I can remember doing brick footings, 16 or 18 courses of hard burnt stocks, two spreader courses off of a concrete base, then upto D.P.C in either English Bond or Header bond solid work, slurry grouted every 4th course. Proper brick footings designed and built to last. Completely different now of course....! Happy days.🥴🧱🧱😁👍

ANOTHER POINTLESS EXTENSION!
