- Bricklaying - Building over Lintels
This is how I approach building over Lintels on privates jobs. In my head.. as long as you got a dpc and a wheep hole or 2 in, your golden 👌
Specifications for lintels
150mm minimum bearing
Wheeps every 450mm
DPC upstand 75mm..150mm..whatever you want really, as long as you have one🤣😉
330mm block under Lintels (that is just some sites) NHBC has started pulling people on it
I think it’s cool that you have people who put your scaffolding up for you when we go up a level. We stop and put them up ourselves 👍😎🧱🧱
Great job. Fascinating to watch. 🍺
Thanks very much buddy! New video today at 4pm ☺️
love your passion for the job Izzy
Thanks Scott mate, hope your doing well😁👍
Nice one mate keep up
The good work smashing it on your own
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Can’t beat the old trestles get whacked up and get it built. 💪🏿😎
Eeey that's it lad! No messing bout😉💪💪💪
Great work 👌
Thanks Dominic mate
Flashing should extend slightly past lintel. Even 2 mm to make a drip. Sealant on lintel edge seal flashing to lint so no water gets in between flashing and flashing material. When it rusts you can never get back in to fix it without removing units.
Nice Izzy . By yourself too💪🏽
Weep holes do more than let water out. They let air in to the cavity. If you have a 30 mph wind up against a wall you'll have 30 psi of air pushing on the surface. You have no wind on the inside of the cavity. That makes the air pressure less on the inside surface. The pressure differential leads to the masonry units not just absorbing water but actually sucking water in like a vacuum. Some walls used to have brick vents to equalize the pressure.
Great content 👌
Thanks Dan! Much appreciated, hope your well!
Quality work mate
Thanks mate!
Nice one Izzy looking good mate
Cheers mate! 🍻🍻🍻👍
Photographing all the details would be good... Greetings to you from Iraq
Just come across this channel, love seeing a younger guy flying on his own! I was a hoddy for 7/8 years paid for my own nvq course but it's been a joke trying to find a start
Cheers mate really appreciate it fella! Probably best hopping into a gang as an inprover or something and just work your way up 👌 if you've got ur nvq Ur half way there brother 💪💪💪🍻
Top tips on the lintels mate your work is very neat and looks spot on .You be passing me with the subs soon 🤣🤣 flying you are mate well deserved cracking videos 👍💯💯🧱🧱
Cheers mate appreciate it fella! Don't know what's going on but people seem to enjoy what am doing 🤣
Just seen it's forecast snow here on Thursday! 😯
@@IzzytheBricky
Get the thermals on mate 🤣 keep em coming 👍💯
Excelente trabajo 👌👌 saludos desde Chile 🇨🇱👌💯🧱
That's buddy appreciate it👍👍👍🍻
Brilliant work buddy! Sorry I'm late by the way, Just been studying for my first main City and Guilds exam. Keep up the great work as always mate, looking forward to the next one! 👌😁👍👷♂️🧱🍻🍻
Ah that's brilliant mate! Let me know how it goes! Good luck mate! You'll smash it mate👌👌👌👍👍😁😁
Thanks for sharing this. I hate doing things on my own sometimes, but videos like yours Izzy really motivate. You make it look easy. It's easy to pay for this kind of work, but so much more rewarding when you can do it yourself. You are clearly good at what you do man. The only down side is, if you teach everyone these skills, won't it mean you get less contracts? For the record, i'd employ you or your company, if you have one, without hesitation. Thanks again mate. I need to subscribe to you now. RB
Thanks alot Robbie, appreciate it fella! Haha there's never enough bricklayers mate..so there's never a shortage of work for me😉👌 Thanks mate, appreciate it🍻🍻
@@IzzytheBricky
the amount of times iv worked for builders who say scaffold going up then dump a few band stands on the job along with an excuse ! only tip iv got , fix a scaff board either end and wedge it some how this takes some of the sway out of it
Haha I know mate..on Monday if you looked up about 8am..you would have seen something flying in the sky....it was me dummy because I spat it out that hard🤣🤣🤣 YES! I've done then a few times..just didn't have enough boards or spare bits of wood🤦🤣
Here we are again hard workin lad u man
Haha cheers mate appreciate it bud👍🍻
@@IzzytheBricky hope all is well 🙏
All good thank you Chris, yourself?😊
Guessing you don’t wanna put the shorts away yet lol great work mate
Haha not giving them up yet mate🤣🤣 got me thermals on under..lovely and toasty 🤣
You look skinnier in this video than your recently video
That's wasn't the "scaffold" I was expecting 😂
Haha I know mate..was proper Mardy about it in the morning 🤣
I’ve seen weep holes work when u have just built a nice bit of brickwork and it pisses down ! 😂
Hahaha that's actually really true! That's the only time I've seen them work🤣🤣 Cheers David! hope your good mate
Enjoy watching other brickys seeing now they do, been meaning to get my own videos made but never get round to recording. What app do you use Izzy to edit your recordings? The flutter tune gets me every time what a track to a video so catchy!!
Thanks mate appreciate it mate! I use power director buddy😊
Another canny video izzy. I'm yet to see a bloody weep vent work aswell! Soon be Xmas mate.hope ya takin afew weeks off? 🍻 cheers
Cheers Dave mate, appreciate it buddy! Yea mate breaking up on the 15..a good 2 weeks off mate! How about yourself bud?
I'm gonna finish 17th for 2weeks bud....me and our lass off to lanzarote 3rd Dec for my 50th on 6th.....can't wait.take care mate
@@davebarrow2194 sounds brilliant bud enjoy yourself mate and have a great birthday 🍻🍻!
Thanks izzy.stay safe mate👍💯💥🍻
👏👏👏👏👏👍🏠👍🍺🏃😂😂
You do good work bud do you only do extension's
Thanks mate, yes pretty much so mate. Use to be on sites, but for the last 2 years on extensions
What’s with the shorts and trousers together
Dodge fashion sense 😉😂
Feck that Lol, I wouldn't have even got out of the Van if I had seen them trestles,how are they they going to do the roof and Gables of them? Seems to be a bit of penny pinching going on at your expense. Believe it or not weep holes are not deemed necessary anymore in rendered work not that I've ever seen one work lol, wouldn't be allowed the brick bearing for the lintol by my local BC , classed as a cold spot but allowed under a steel as a compromise??? 👍
Haha I know mate, but sometimes gotta crack on🤣 I never knew that mate about the weeps in rendered work..wonder why that is?🤔 Yea it's a cold spot but not cutting 65m block slithers when I got bricks looking at me🤣
There is a scaffold going up..just not sure when now🤔 Hope your good Andy mate
Edit: referring to the weeps in rendered blockwork, how are you so up-to-date on all these NHBC standards mate?
Render is waterproof so no water should get in the cavity
@@neilsmart78 thanks mate!
@@IzzytheBricky keep up the good work 👊🏻
Butter your block better to avoid filling joints later it's just concentration.
Nice solid job mate ! Bit shit working on your own with no proper scaff on THAT ground 😬.
I notice you were using Keystone lintels with the thermal bridge plate 😏. Watch this space 😉
Cheers buddy! Haha I know mate..but sometimes there's just an easier way😅😅😉 looking at the joist level on the existing building, it looks like my joists are going to be sittin on that brick, so half of it is gonna be boarded over and be in the ceiling 🤞 just watching your new video now bud! Hope your all well🍻
@@IzzytheBricky . Nice one , all good down here in Lem 👌🏼🧱👍🏽
Are cavity trays essential?
Hi Pat! Yes mate they are nowerdays. They help moisture escape the cavity via the Weep Vents.
When you have anything that bridge's the cavity (something which touches the external brickwork and also the internal blockwork) it needs to have cavity tray over it.👌👌
@@IzzytheBricky thanks that's what I thought. My daughters having a house built and the blocklayer has missed a load out. Love your work
@@patrickryan7385 cheers mate appreciate it buddy🍻
Where you from mate? Did I hear you say an extension in Leicester?
Ayup Bardy, I'm in Derby. But yea I dropped on an extension last Wednesday Thursday to push it to scaffold hight 👌
My neck of the woods that bud . Ay good video anyway man your work ethic is second to none. No wingeing just crack on . Hats off to ya 🤝 if you ever need a hand on jobs around Leicester give me a shout mate.
@@bardy9240 cheers mate appreciate it bud💪👌 EY well do mate!
What bird like pal
Very sweet🤣👌
Ever had a lad and taught him
Your often on your own.do you prefer it.
Never personally had my own apprentice. Hoping to have someone starting with me next week ☺️
@@IzzytheBricky i think you have the patience and certainly the skill good luck.i never like working on my own.
Cheers thanks, to be honest I'm quite good at explaining things really simply 😂😂
Alot of your frustrations would be solved by having a labourer, I avoid working solo like the plague these days
I know.....and..ive just been let down by a new labour who was ment to be starting 2moz🤣🤣 here we goooo🤣🤦🤦
@@IzzytheBricky I know the feeling, Ive had to resort to the Mrs 😂😂
@@theafter8bricky haha my missus is adamant not to work with me🤣
@@IzzytheBricky haha, I kick her arse at work she kicks mine at home hahahaha, funny old parodox 😂😂😂
I've been telling him . But guess what doing a little extension on me own today I've a few years on you boys . Don't work on ya own
Hey mate you did a video recently of you taking over another brickies job he had laid his bricks frog down instead of frog up you said you had to continue laying frog down why was that instead of continuing the wall frog up ?
Hiya David! Since you can see whether a brick is frog up or frog down, you would clearly see a difference from the two sets of work. So I thought it be better continuing frog down
@@IzzytheBricky didn't realise that its been many years since I have laid bricks in the UK keep up the great work bud
@@davidosborne3459 Thanks so much mate! Where are you working at the moment buddy?
Ruff
😂😂😂😂😂👍
Who else reads the title in the accent 😃 lintels on , sarnnnd
😉🤣🤣 Cheers fella! Hope your good 🍻👌
Do you normally work on your m8
Use to all the time. However I do now have an apprentice
You do some excellent work mate just wondering why you point the block work when you have a skin of face to cover said block work
On site or private your work and technics should be the same.
why the course of bricks ? why not m
ake it up on the footings ?
2100mm is nine course block one brick pal
Bricks on the inside.???
Yes I know..but im not cutting 65mm block slithers when I've got bricks staring right at me😉👌 Hope your well Nigel bud🍺
