    I'm a bricklayer the last 25 years if this was the best brickwork or pointing up ever done bricklayers will always have something negative to say or the mix isn't right that's the worst about bricklayers or most negative comments on here are probably 40 year olds still living at home with their mothers and getting up at 3 or 4 in the day never done a day's work in their life 😅😅 anyone that's a bricklayer knows how physically hard it is on the body great work pal keep it up 👍👍

    Im a bricklayer from NYC , Beautiful job , going to look smart when you’re all done. We used the sand pressure cleaner a few times and it has cleaned old bricks lovely. As for the few supposed line burners in the comments me and the boyz over her love to see them spin in circles when they have to actually try to do the work they say they can. Real trowels know you put the care in and that’s why you get the clients. Cheers and God bless you and the family from the Yankee trowels staying traditional too!

    That looks fantastic Dean. So glad to see your local authorities understanding the use of traditional building methods. Up here eveyone just wants to look oldish and be concre at the back. Great work guys.

    I was told always bed timbers on traditional lime mortar, the lime will pull any moisture out of the timber and keep it beautifully dry, cement mortar acts as a barrier keeping the moisture in, that’s why old timbers lasted so long apparently 😀

      The timber can breath on the face though? How would the moisture stay in?

    There’s a couple of beautiful pink Jersey granite lintels down the side of my gaff that I’m desperate to put in the garden, I’ve been told I can just have them, it’s a few quid worth too, but bolloxed if I can move them 😅 🤝

      Lime and other historic binders have a great variety in appearance. The use of natural and localised building products give traditional buildings a great wealth of regional diversity. Something unfortunately lost now to mass-produced "4 n 1".
