In this satisfying video, the guys take you through the whole process of BUILDING A PORCH FROM START TO FINISH. Each stage of how to build a brick porch is covered and Pete starts off by explaining how to prepare concrete foundation for porch. Using a laser level he sets the depth for pouring concrete footing. Pete mixes a 5in1 concrete mix and the explains how to use a concrete vibe to level and disperse air from concrete pour. Tony runs through the plans using 7 newton concrete blocks, engineering bricks and old blue bricks. Alex is in action setting out the blockwork and showing how to lay blocks, then how to fix a wall starter kit, before laying ytong blocks. Alex sets up his new bricklaying corner profiles and fills the cavity with kingspan kooltherm insulation. Pete is on the brick saw and gives you a quick rundown on its performance. Alex fits the cavity wall steel lintel over the doorway so Pete can fit the wall plate in preparation for the roof rafters. Tony explains the roof design and how the roof jacks and roof hip will work. After removing brickwork the 2 new RSJ steel beam goes in and the rest of the porch roof rafters go on and so over to Will. The whole process of how to tile a roof is seen from laying roof felt, fixing roof lath, laying roof tiles and finally the roof step flashing. Now you have seen all the bricklaying and roofing the final part is to show you how to fit a composite front door and there you have it, a good example of a DIY porch for your next project!
PLEASE NOTE: we’ll endeavour to answer questions and comments as soon as possible depending on our work schedules.

It’s just a genuine pleasure to see tradesmen that take this much pride in their work and not just wanting to chip off early or cut corners.
The world needs more tradespeople like you lot 👍
Much appreciated Paul, have an awesome week 👍
I totally agree Paul. Thank you for the uploads, and deffo a sub from me.
Wow. Perfectly matched the house. Looks like it was there all along.
I watch this video so regularly lol. It’s like that porch has always been there. Lovely brick match and unrivalled attention to detail.
Much appreciated have a awesome week regards Tony 👍
Another superb job. Higher standards for a porch build than most large developers construct a complete house.
👍😎
Thanks for watching dude! 👍
Just had a 4x2 porch built and 4 months in there's still no roof on it! Nice to see builders who know their trade unlike Amber Valley Builders who let people down.
You should have got my Irish mate in to help, his name's Phil McCavity 🤣
Great instructional as always fellas - top job 👌
Top marks for quailty blockwork, one of my pet hates is missing mortar & gaps in perps,bed,etc.
Thanks for watching Stuart!
Brilliant job of making it blend in perfectly with the existing. Lovely clean work.
👍👍
Smashing job lads, the level of detail is a credit to you.
👍👍
Just love seeing jobs done properly. Never a bad job done by these guys, vast knowledge and the skills to complete it to such a high standard 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks dude! 👍
Brickwork on another level.
👍👍
I'm sure things were done correctly before the video began but viewers should be aware that excavations within three metres of a neighbouring property, to a level lower than their existing foundations, is notifiable under the Party Wall etc Act 1996. This appears to be the case in for the project shown. Also, digging a trench parallel to and close to the external walls of one or more buildings, to a depth significantly lower than the existing foundations, can be very dangerous with the real possibility of structural collapse. The foundation for this new Porch structure only passed between the buildings for a short length, so this may not have been a problem (or trench propping may have been used) but excavation any further between these buildings would need a specially engineered approach. If in doubt, consult a Chartered Structural Engineer and use their design in your Party Wall Act notice.
Yes, I totally agree. I'm not a builder so don't deem to know any better. However I am very surprised you are allowed to build so close to the neighbouring property. You would not get away with that in Scotland. The space between the two properties has to be a specific distance. Even from a fire point of view. The work though is tremendous. The attention to detail is fabulous. Skill.
A superb job from start to finish. Outstanding work.
Great stuff Tone and gang. Thank you for taking the time to film and edit 👌👌🏴
Glad you enjoyed it 👍
I really how you take your time and care, keeping out the snots putting the insulation in without any gaps fully insulating. Excellent work! By the way where are you lads based?
Great job no shortcuts
Didn't see the cavity made being extensive with the existing walls. Best practice is to cut in a vertical dpc at the wall abutments.
Massive fan of all your work and also of the long format videos bang on.👍
👍👍
Really beneficial to tape the insulation, as especially with the 20mm air gap, if there is any air movement through the slab joints then, it's effectively not there!
Very highly skilled tradesmen absolutely brilliant job.
And people moan about what genuine trades people charge. They obviously don't know the headwork that goes into these jobs, even the smallest ones. Excellent video guys, well done.
Absolutely fantastic work be it a small porch add on or huge double storey extension. 🤩 Great video. 👍
👍👍
I am watching for the skills and commentary so find having to turn the volume up and down to avoid the music a pain otherwise thanks for these videos.
Real craftsmanship , no wonder Build with A&E have a huge waiting list,the quality is exceptional.
Thanks for watching Maria! 👍
Cracking video Lads , This video shows Every aspect of the trade and is really helpful, Just a quick question as I am thinking of doing the same on my property But coming out the front 1m and around the side the same as this to add a downstairs toilet , do you need Planning permission ? Thankyou Kurt
That front door is outstanding.
Great job lads
Can I ask why you haven’t you cut in the cavity’s to the old?
What a clean, professional work
Thanks Mijlke! 👍
Great job,looks amazing👌shame you didn’t do a 2 part vid with a bit more on steelwork and roof build,just being moany as I wanted to see those🤣🤣
Thanks for watching dude! Something for us to focus on for a future project definitely 😉👍
The way it should be done. Great job guys.
What an amazing job you done, I’ve subscribed on this first video I’ve seen, you guys have made every point of that build blend in with the house it could not be better
Thanks Anthony, have an awesome week! 👍
A absolute joy to watch real tradesmen
Thanks for watching buddy! 👍
You should paint that new bricks 16:58 to match with old bricks.
That’s the neatest half lap joint I’ve seen
Looks real good with the Grey composite front door this is class!
Thanks Mike! 👍
Lucky customers to have such top builders!
Thanks for watching! 👍
Looks awesome. I wish I had guys like you to do my porch too. They are too expensive here in my area.
Fantastic job! Thank you for taking us on that journey!
Nice one fellas,great workmanship,👌
Glad you enjoyed it much appreciated 👍
Bootiful...👍😀. Question - I thought it was good practice to leave two courses gap from under a window frame to top of rafter? Looks you like you were tight to the window sill?
Love your work. Much love from the USA.
Very nice job!
Very instructive, I know feel fully qualified to build my own porch extension.
Thanks for watching! 👍
No cavity tray needed?
Or cutting out the cavity on the house brickwork
Hermoso el trabajo del porch, saludos desde Chile 🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🤗🤗🤗🤗
👍👍
Another high quality build. 👊🏻.
I see those lads are still making good use out of that quality tool you designed, so you must be on a winner there.
@@amazing451 Tony has been very supportive and genuinely likes the square. I’m very grateful for his support.
Thanks mate! Hope all is well! 👍
@@BuildWithAE all very good thanks. 👊🏻
Hope the same your end.
Great work, I would like to see more thought go into cold bridges. Filling the bottom of the void with concrete and the steel interfaces stuck out to me. All depends on the clients spec obviously.
Excellent work once again! I’m grateful for all the uploads,but particularly like these longer ones!!! All the best fellas.
Thanks Jason! 👍
Came out stunning, never expected any less from A&E, Quality work again guys.+++
👍👍
That’s not building it’s artistry !
👍👍
Lovely work lads! Nice to see a job from start to finish! Keep yo the good work:)💪🍻
Thanks Izzy! 👍
Looks like it’s always been there . Perfect
👍👍
Love the very comprehensive videos 👌. Always great to a company engineering out manual tasks that involve bending over and back breaking tasks. Top notch 👍
👍👍
Now that's what I call epic
Thanks Ubi! 👍
Antricite frame would look much nicer than the white door frame... PO
That job will last a hundred years 👍
Thanks John! 👍
Excellent Video and a beautiful job as usual. The attention to detail is impressive.
Thanks Jeff! 👍
Super job as always. Love watching the work put into every project ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Cured mortar looks impeccable. What mix ratio are you using and what colour sand?
Amazing! Beautiful job!
👍👍👍
that is next level! wikid
Attention to detail as always.. Awesome work lads.
Thank you so much 😀
nice job and video guys love it , cracking bunch of lads you have there Tony 👍🏻
Thanks Davy, we have an awesome team! 👍
Looks brilliant well done lads
Was on the tools today (I do it mainly on the side atm ) nice work just nice seeing a good job done came together well I was surprised as to the amount of roof batons used I'm assuming that's a reg thing
cant find a video anywhere on it but would be great to see you guys do a video on replacing a concrete lintel above a door/window. I have no joy getting a builder out to do it and would be great to see how you guys would go about doing it.
Hi Peter
Steve and Alex on you CZcams have a great one all the best Tony 👍 thanks for watching have a awesome weekend
How thick is the insulation please? Also what is the air gap after insulation and outer wall? Thanks
Brick saw is a nice bit of kit, good job on the porch lads although I was thinking when you were below dpc that the mortar looked a bit light in cement but great uploads👍
Hi S Coyle much appreciated, we always gauge below DPM 3in1 above 5in1 infill 5in1
but the sand from the quarry at the moment is quite red all the best Tony 👍
I really liked this video. But why the epileptic fit-inducing music?
Excellent work! If I ever live in the UK and need something done, I know where to go!
Thanks for watching! 👍
Excellent quality guys.
👍👍
Que trabalho incrível. Parabéns!
Excellent. Looks like it’s always been there
Thanks for watching 👍
Tasty work as always, good crew of lads know what there at
Much appreciated 👍👍
Stunning porch, great job.
Thanks Bob! 👍
Beautiful job, concern for fine detail shows in the quality of the job.
Thanks! 👍
Awesome job guys 🏴
👍👍
To the lads who wear the shorts last time i seen a pair of legs like that they where hanging out of a birds nest ha ha ha
Hi, great job. Do you cover London?
Cracking video lads, as per usual...
Glad you enjoyed it 👍
Excellent job guys well done.
Glad you enjoyed it 👍
Cavity tray to existing wall above new roof abutment?
Great work boys!
👍
Good job
Thanks Rob! Have an awesome week! 👍
after going 1820mm for your last jack rafter how did you get the length of it, where it all meets at the apex? great job as usual though boys👍🏻
How much did it cost
Top Work 👏
How deep did you dig down, it looked less than a metre depth? I noticed you then trench filled with concrete. I'm guessing you didn't need to go the required 1 metre as its just a porch. Thanks guys
Well impresses …top job by professionals👍
Thanks for watching! 👍
Wish I’d seen the inside insulation.
Top job as always lads 👏🏼
Thanks Karl! 👍
Top job as always boys 👏👏
Glad you enjoyed it 👍👍
As usual great team work.
Thank you 😊
Beautiful work guys
👍👍
At point 16.38 when Tony explaining the roof design you said you were going to put a back box in but I can't see one in the finished roof. Could you explain what you meant. Thanks.
Very nice work lads 👍
Thanks Shane! 👍
Top class guys👏
Thanks Mac! 👍
excellent
Many many thanks
Nice job!
Wee old man hires a guy to paint his porch, 4 hours later the guy chaps the old man's door, "thats me done pal, btw it's a ferrari not a porsche"
😂
