Love your attention to the debris under the floorboords and the respect given to the original builders. Top man Roger.
Really impressed with your hatred for leaving rubbish under the floor, very good personal morals and respect. That is a true trades person!
Roger's like one of those reassuring old uncles that knows everything, and can do anything. A bygone generation
Bet he doesn’t know how to send an email. By the way what do you think all young builders are learning and know?
Glad to see I'm not the only one who cleans up the mess under the floorboards on a refurb. Good man!
Hi Roger, just wanted to say I love your videos, I'm not a trades person, but I like bit of DIY, and the way you explain is brilliant, it's rare to find someone with such experience making videos like these
Thanks Craig - we've put so much time and effort into this series that we started to get nervous about how it will be received by you all. The stats show us that people like short videos so we try to keep them short, or in this case spread it over a series. It's looking like this will be at least 10 episodes so we hope you enjoy it!
@@SkillBuilder hey Rodger love your work & videos , what should I be charging for an average bathroom remodel top to bottom full demo to finish ?
Good of you to go that extra mile to make sure the job is done properly. Great respect for you Roger, cracking vids!
Crap in the void is a pet hate of mine also, its even better when you take the ceiling below down and dump dust, plumbing and building debris, the british builder!!!
Roger Bisby a complete joy to watch and to learn.
I enjoy watching DIY videos, I find it interesting and strangely therapeutic...But the reason I watch your videos the most Roger is because of your personality and your way of explaining things 👍🏼
That is very nice of you to say so. I really don't want to become self aware though.
Just a tip, use an aquavac to drain pipes, wastes, rads etc. Hot water in toilet, come across that. Turned out to be faulty shower valve feeding hot back through to cold pipes. 😁

Yay! Tea and biscuit time. Thanks for the videos friend.
The floor looks like a disabled or hospital bathroom. Can see why they dislike it. Rest of the bathroom wasn't too bad though. Thanks for another great vid, Rog. Keep them coming!
It’s never occurred to me before you said but yes shavings and wood dust under the floor or behind cupboards would be a great fire starter for an electrical spark ⚡️ . Great point
I am the same when I rip out anything I have to clean every last bit. It drives people crazy but I just feel good knowing what on the inside is just as good as the outside.
Under floorboards is my favourite tool storage area!!! Cheers Roger
I've found lots of tools under the floorboards of my house... seems quite a popular storage area :)
I just said those exact words to myself today at work about the dirt under floors! The last fellas in the house didn't leave a pick of dirt so im not going to either. Great work Rodger as always!
I share your obsession with cleaning out under the floorboards
'there's still scope for turning some profit here.....' I love your enthusiasm.
Hi Roger
I think you're brilliant.
If I was up for a bathroom refurb you'd be the only plumber I'd want in my house.
Sorry you had your transformer stolen, I hope it blows up in their faces.
Keep up the good work.

Another superb video Roger, very interesting to watch and learn, totally agree with you about cleaning rubbish from between floorboards its taking a pride in the job, also your video quality seems sharper than previous videos , keep up the great work.
Great videos.. Watching on the tube heading to work!! Looking forward to the next episode 🛁🚽🔧😊😇
Thanks for another quality upload! I love your channel.
Thanks Scott, we hope you enjoy the series!
I share your dislike of rubbish under floorboards (and above ceilings).
Too many tradesmen treat it as an alternative to bagging up the debris.
Having said that, it can be fascinating to find old newspapers and cigarette packets for brands that are no longer around.
And sordid filth stashed away behind the basin pedestal.
Dirty gets, pure laziness. Found all kinds of crap behind my downstairs bath panel.. bits of pipe lagging, off cuts of wood, rubble and copper pipe.🤬
@TD.. I always clean up. Especially old lengths of copper pipe... Straight into my scarp box. Every little helps! The only thing I leave under the bath are spare tiles.
Not just respect to the customers property 101 tradesman thinks of the next guy, plasterer will come take that ceiling down and have smashed tile fag packets and occasionly the odd tool the last guy lost. total disrespect of the customer and your own work. keep your work area clean and safe simples
Interesting video .love your attention to detail.
Love the tention to details. Taking pride in the job you do. I wish you can do our bathroom
Just watched episodes absolutely brill keep up good work.
Great work ethic. Nice work Roger.
looking forward to the next video nice one roger.
What a phenomenal resource this channel truly is!
I seem to find you everywhere
@@BillCarrIpswich You’ll never “find” me on *_’The Young Turks’_* … 😏
@@jewelcitizen2567 The Nathan Damigo interview they did was based AF, otherwise it's pure cancer/compilation fodder.
I must admit being a ex plumber I do like your channel and think you always do a top class bathroom re-fit.... It must be the aubcus range ;-)
So distracting when you’ve got boards up and you find a newspaper from back in the day……always end up having a read and before you know it, it’s lunchtime 😂
Love your stories about the previous jobs you’ve done in the past Roger. I agreed as well about clearing up any debris under the floor boards. I’m like that too!
great vid!
Fabulous this Rog. Can’t wait for the rest of this series 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks Scooter - there's at least another 9 episodes to go!
Skill Builder great stuff. Appreciate the effort that goes into the making of these. Is your camera man the chap from your Foscam install vid? Recognise his voice I think.
@@bscott77 Well spotted, it is our resident camera op/editor/producer.
Agree with the hidden rubbish. I've vacuumed all my under-floors and loft. It makes it a joy to work should you need to visit those areas.
Love your vids. With a cup of tea. Oh, and considering the space you work in your lighting is always top notch
I didn't know you were a plumber...I thought you were a remodeler...your a talented guy.👍

Hi roger. Good tip. If your ripping out a bathroom that is fully tiled or tiled onto tile (nightmare) smash a vertical line straight up the middle with your hammer and horizontaly from left to right.then put rubber gloves on and pull the plasterboard right off in four sections .far easier than chipping tiles off one by one especially if its an old house and double tiled
Keep up the good work roger :)
I ordered the Knipex mini pliers because I thought they were larger...was going to return them but found I use them way more than any other pair of pliers!
Expensive, but very useful 👍
Old boy I first learnt with would of killed me throwing taps(scrap metal) in the skip like that 😂
Nice work mate.
Thanks David
Roger, when you mentioned selling the bathroom I thought good man!!...such a shame it couldn't be re-cycled. More landfill I'm afraid : (
Top quality videos as always; I have really enjoyed your Capel Build... what a project!
Use a good stud detector and a marker pen to map out the joist layout.
Hot flushes,.. couldn't resist
Oh that's good!
this guy could be the best plumber in the world!
Nowhere near it. I know at least 10 guys in my immediate circle who I would rate higher than me. I am not being modest, just stating a fact.
Hi Roger nice vid next time your passing stoneleigh we'll have that pint all the best mate Kev
Nice one Roger Done a few of those rough rip outs where I have underestimated and come short. Funnily enough that cistern have seen it plumbed in to a mixer valve before. Helped with the condensation forming on the cistern. Those bare knees are painful to watch Roger! Get some protection on double quick!
I really enjoyed this vid Mate. I like where your heads at.
I've got the same hate for rubbish under the floorboards and try and clean as much as I can on all of my jobs

100% on the ranch i was struggling to remove the sink for ages because i could not undo the bolt!
Sounds mad but Pam loves ripping out bathrooms and kitchens, I love putting in new ones, great video 👍
Phil : putting it in
Pam : ripping.
Got it. 👍
Juan Cornetto I know, something going on there right 😎👍
like the thumb tip... 👍🏼
Roger! What do recommend tile Anti Crack matt wise? Thanks Rick
😂😂 The bishop bathroom story 👍🏻👍🏻
Hi Roger.
Just wondered what size are your Knipex Cobra's 125mm or 150mm
What do you recommend ?
I have the 250mm and they are a great quality plier so I was looking for a smaller pair for tight spaces.
Enjoy watching yours and Robin's videos, very intuitive.
Thank you.
I think at the end of the job, it's a lot easier to look the customer in the eye knowing you've thoroughly cleaned up.
There's a reason why you have so many views on your videos, great stuff.
Do you mind telling me the make of the reciporating saw your using.
John
I'm in a 2year old house, bought off plan and the shite under the kitchen units and floor timbers is embarrassing, bloody idle buggers, all about time/profit these house builders.
Bum Custard agree mine is 2 years old. It's all just house bashing shite quality. The kitchen was like a cheap caravan kitchen
@@bigdump2825 Yup, too right, who takes those big profits !?!? makes you wonder how much %
In fairness age is no barrier to bodging bastards - part of our house is 200 years old and part is 25 years old. So many bodge jobs over the years. I wish I had the money to gut the place and re-do everything.
A
Hot flush!
Roger missed a trick there!
I love you roger, but you didn't tell me how to blank off the pipes! I'm trying to do the rip out myself, and hopefully reconstruct what I can. Really like the way you work. Cleaning up debris etc. Shame the sink couldn't of been reused.
How do you hire yourself absolutely love your workmanship
Hi What on earth is going on behind that plasterboard, there are some old tiles and lathe and plaster below and above with a gap between?.
ur gonna laff at what im going to say but the hot fill on the cistern might have been on purpose, its a way to counteract the sweating/condensation you get on the cistern when you have flushed it and it fills with really cold water in winter and your bathroom is nice warm your gonna end up with in some cases a drippy cistern, so that mixed with itll help keep your pan clean it to some tiny point makes sense, keeping in mind itll only really work with a tank fed hot water system not a combi, and if your saying its 200 years old the house has the owner kept the old system or does it have a combi in? if its got a combi in then im talking out me bum lol
Hi Did you ever find out why the toilet had hot water in it?. I looked through your list of tools and was surprised that you did not list the two tusk breaking bar, I have had one for years and use it mainly for dismantling pallets, I bough mine from tool station.
I have a couple of those Mamoth bars and did use it. We will add it to the list

With you on debris under floorboards Roger. It just screams "shoddy corner-cutting wakners were here".
I doubt anybody watching this thinks that tactic is "good enough" however. Anybody prepared to defend it just proves the point 🤡.
Stopped hiring "trades" I couldn't do years ago as it is easier to up-skill yourself and do a better job than pick up after Bodgitt & Scarper have "finished".
Channels like yours and Robin's (and countless others) make that easier than ever for committed amateurs now. Thanks for the content, keep it coming. 🖒
i live in a flat where all the pipes and waste is behind a fake wall etc ,whats ya thoughts on them ? if i ever had issues or leaks that means the plumber would have to rip it all out , looks cleaner but its a 2009 build flat and nothing has gone wrong yet ,i suppose its about do right first time never a problem edit : more of a fake shelf /excess wall if u know what i mean "
....arse! Most new homes have internal soil stacks. The poo chute is usually boxed in and as it's 4" pipe there is room to run up hot and cold services, heating flow and return and do cable pulls for the electrics.
Water turned off?Tell me about it,I had to constantly use pipe freezer on and off for two weeks

+1 for cleaning up inside the floor void ,its not a mini dump its someones house end of the day
We love cleaning out that void on our jobs. When you look at the finished room in all its glory, you still know if there's a mountain of crap under the floor.
agree fully with your pet hate. good job
Classic roger
I’ve heard of a large electric motor being hoisted by a pad eye held on only with silicone
It's quite impressive stuff.
Was that recip saw cutting tile?!? What sort of blade does that??
Was it tile? Looked like a composite wall board to me.

cannae bate a knipex mini
Hate waste in the floor void, feel your pain.... Nice 1 Roger
At 7:00 Is that saw cutting the tiles‽
Hey Roger!! The 'rip video' was soo informative! Thanks ; ) Do you have a second home in Marbella?? Great tan.. ; p x
Marbella is full of crooks, I prefer rural France.
@@SkillBuilder 'Year in Provence' or further up? Don't blame you, France is beautiful, bon viveur perfect.
Re the hot water in the cistern, we did a refurb job in Hull a couple of years ago and every time we flushed the cistern, the combi kicked in! Have a guess!
Great! Hot flushes
@@SkillBuilder Correct!
Hot water in that bathroom cistern I heard stops condensation on the outside of it
Hot flushes? yes it works but it is a high price to pay
I’ve been waiting for this and it’s just come on I have to go out !!!!! Gggrrrrr. Still got my first though 👍🏻😆
😊👏👏👏
A wet room in an old house is a bad idea more often than not
Hi Roger, love he vids! I use and sell abacus all the time! Can you design and supply bathrooms yourself? How do you work?? :)

Where was this like 2 weeks ago iv just done all of this haha
Hi Sam - this was being edited two weeks ago, right at the same time you were up to your eyeballs in bathroom stuff!
Hi Brian,could you not have recycled this bathroom suit? Fle bay or something?
Yes but I broke it getting it out
Skill Builder haha!
in the world of limited resources, people throw away a perfectly nice and functioning bathroom. A lot of energy and pollution went into building that basin and now it's time to pollute some more and expend some more energy because we want to throw it away. Oh humanity...you will learn, but it will be too late then.
Wouldn't hot water in the toilet make it not sweat? So maybe that's why it's like that.
12:17 - I also can not leave rubbish under floorboards. But ... Renovating century or more old central European house I found all sorts of rubbish under the floorboards. So I had to clean up both my rubbish and 100+ year old rubbish. Which was very annoying. Different historical cultures about tidiness between the UK and other places apparently.
That's one of my pet hates as well - only scum bag tradesmen leave crap under the floors.
I used to have a lad (time served - I might add) who plumbed at least two toilets in off the hot feeds “accidentally” and then said it was to prevent condensation when the customer had never had an issue with condensation. Also he was the worst for putting waste under floorboards...... needless to say he doesn’t work for me anymore. The only excuse is lazy and careless 😂

What a waste of good kit though.
Just doing mine and ordered 3k worth of goods,really adds up.
Yes I hate the waste and often put things on Freecycle but in this instance it didn't work out.
Didn't explain how to disconnect piping, or any technical things.
Yes it assumes a certain level of competence. It is a bad idea to embark on a project such as this if you have no knowledge of plumbing systems.
Plumbing's just Lego innit, water Lego.
No such thing as an easy job Roger.
You're right Nigel, this is why Roger is having three weeks in the sun right now to recover from this epic series!
Didnt know the green goblin does bathrooms now

That’s why you should never wear gloves. 🤷🏼♂️😬😎👍🏻

Come come Mister Ballbag, you probably love good tools and building materials as much as we do. The great thing is, you can do this job with the products of your choosing.
I'd like to sell it but I won't 🤣 that's me,if you want it come take it out lol
knipex is pronounced nip-ex
