Whether you're a DIY enthusiast or just love witnessing incredible home transformations, this is one video you won't want to miss! Join me on this exhilarating journey of renovation and restoration.
Painting brickwork is a fatal mistake. Once you do it, you are committed to redoing it every 5-10 years as it never lasts.
Also some people don't realise when painting it needs to be masonry paint not any old crap as it needs to be able to breathe 😊👌👍
Yep. Why introduce a maintenance issue when you don't have to?
Paint has destroyed more houses in Britain than the Luftwaffe ever did.
@@martinogoldPossibly to cover up graffiti?
@@martinogold that's my thoughts 👍
One word, WOW!! 👏 👏 👏 😁
😊👌👍
Nice work, what ever possessed us to start painting brick work 😮
😂👌👍
It is incredibly relaxing to watch the fine masonry being revived.
😊👌👍
Destroyed
Moaners are always gonna moan anyway. You did a brilliant job. Dwelling is looking 100 times better already.
😊👌👍
A vanishingly rare example of somebody using their stepladder in the correct orientation. Well done. Nice work.
😊👌👍 it's very hard to blast side ways on the kick back presure would certainly be enough to topple me over 😂
I noticed that, possibly a board needed if that lawn was soft.
@chriseccles1454 I like to stamp on the bottom tread just to make sure it's not going to move or sometimes bounce on the bottom run it's abit like a habit that I do. I know working off ladders is dangerous but it's like second nature doing stuff I don't even know why I do it 😂 it's like a sense I've got haha
@@MobileblasterStaying safe sometimes becomes second nature but you can also become complacent it's an acquired balance .
@chriseccles1454 yeah definitely and when your concentration is on what your doing its easy to have stupid errors 🫣
What a difference that makes ! Nice 1 again Mick.
😊👌👍
Fell asleep first time....very therapeutic
😊👌👍
I always respect your work and your pride in the result. Always a thumbs up from here in Aus. Loved the intro driving down wet small English country roads. A real trip gown memory lane.
Haha its funny you say that my mate in new South Wales AUS mentioned he loves to see the green countryside so I put a extra long clip in for him glad you enjoyed it too 😀 👍
Awesome job Mick very much appreciated 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇺🇲🇺🇲👍😎🤠
Thanks mate 😊👌👍
OMGosh! I am so excited to have just found your channel...am a new subscriber. This home turned out extraordinarily beautiful. I grew up in a red brick home that was never painted and loved it. Look forward to watching many of your old posts as well as all of your news one coming up!
👏👏👏💯💯👏👏👏
Thank you 😊 what a lovely comment 😊 👌👍
Bloody hell, amazing job and transformation. 👍
Thank you 😊 👌👍
Another day another good job mate looks good!!
😊👌👍
Good job!!!
😊👌👍
Looks a load better with the red brick! 👏
Yep that's my thoughts too. 😊👌👍
Looks so nice 🙂
😊👌👍
hello Mick & it's is Randy and i like yours video is cool & Thanks Mick & Friends Randy
😊👌👍
Nice job, well done
😊👌👍
Nicely done 🎉🎉😊
Thank you 😊 👌 👍
Woo Hoo!!! First comment LOL
Looking forward to this transformation, but you messing with my OCD by leaving paint on that air-brick though Mick
😂 they was getting replaced 👌👍
Nice satisfying time lapse
😊👌👍
Great job Mick. Huge improvement.Note the correct colouring of mortar on the extension to match the brick which continued for the re-point should improve aesthetic further .
Oh it will look 100x better when it's jointed up properly 👌👍
Nice job 👏 👍. Green country side 👌.
I put the extra bit of driving in just for you 😎 skinny little roads 😂👌👍
Cracking job that Mick , a dab hand with that blaster 👍
😊👌👍
@@Mobileblaster just in the process of uploading my first every cooking video
@@ma.creations20 oh cool 😎 👌 good luck it takes some time for the algorithm to pick videos up so stick with it if you enjoy making them it will pay off 👌👍
good see the PSI didn't know was so low. 😎 Place looks good and the clean up spotless
Yeah alot of stuff isn't seen in these videos because what works for me may course alot of damage for people that want to learn from these videos I'm far from an expert or a teacher so I try not to add this info 😬😊😂
Give it a Nice touch of Tuckpointing...and that house will look brand new !!!!
That's the next job they was on with 😊👌👍
Thums upp !!! looks nice !!
😊👌👍
magnifique.
Thankyou 😊 👌 👍
Haha yeah you said at the end of the video.
I had a feeling that was going to be the case, same with the joints when you leave the as they going to be repointed.
😊👌👍
This is a very risky process. In the first instance I would strongly recommend that a full condition survey is carried out, including moisture readings to all the internal faces of the external walls and ceilings, which will be the basis of assessing any water penetration and damage. Traditional standard British construction has evolved to cope with rain falling out of the sky and not a pressure washing with c2000psi jets, whether on not sand is mixed in. I would be concerned that the brick facings have been eroded that will considerably shorten the life of the brickwork. As indicated, all the brickwork will require raking out and repointing, making the on-costs considerably more than the jet and water/sand blasting. I don't see any obvious signs that the cavity has been insulated, but if so the pressure washing will have soaked the insulation that will dry out to both the inside and outside over a protracted period. There was probably a reason for painting the walls in the first place and most of the time its in the vain attempt to cure a penetrating damp problem - that hasn't gone away but will be highlighted by pressure washing.
If the intent was to improve the aesthetics then I would have considered overcladding with render or an actual,cladding system, which would have given the opportunity to add insulation.
It's a good job I was only at 45psi not 2000psi a jet wash is aprox 10L per minute I'm at 0.4L per minute sometimes less. The right media water psi and pitch won't harm a 4" clay brick it will still perform just like a new brick. The reason for the job was because the joints had failed and cleaning the bricks beforehand go hand in hand for a perfect newbuild luck. It has insulation and if that's been done by a reputable company it will be fiberglass none absorbent like all insulation companies use so that's not a problem. The reason was for astatics but your wrong about the paint if it's not approved for brick the it's like putting a bag on the house it need to breath 4" clay bricks are designed to repel water aswell as weep damp out. If you have any other questions I'm happy to put your querys straight 👌👍
Shoutout to the gutter man who put clips every 500mm 😂
😂👌👍
New sub here that's a big difference it looks so much better already when his hade it repointed and new grates it will look a million pounds
Definitely should like like a new build 😊👌👍
That's a lot better than the ugly paint on the beautiful brick and stone work. Never understand why you would paint bricks and stones. You do amazing work.
😊👌👍
Ayup Mick good job. Is your compressor ok now.? Do charge by the hour or job or by the square mt.
👋 thanks 👌 😊 yeah I could do with a better cooling system for the aftercooler but it's working for now its likely to need a better fan when the weather picks up 😎 experience is how I know how much things is going to cost me then I add my labour 👌👍
Was the white paint checked for lead content prior to its dispersal about the property? Results looks great.
I don't show alot of whats going off in these videos the not a how too 👌👍 but for your query yes I did test for lead what you didn't see also was the asbestos that was removed too prior 👌👍
@@Mobileblaster Thanks for the update. My old 1920's clapboard Craftsman Cottage house here in California is loaded with lead paint over the redwood, so sandblasting wouldn't be practical, I'd have to heat and scrape every inch of the exterior in order to remove the multiple paint layers.
@richardgraham1167 it's very unusual to have any lead on most projects as it's been banned since the 60s I always check on the older properties. It can be blasted with no problem so long as steps are taken. I have insurance-approved asbestos removal ticket if i needed lead tickets it won't be too hard to adapt my system to work with all the appropriate authorities 👌👍
cracking house
Very impressive plot of land aswell 😊👌👍
Great to see stepladder being used correctly, not sid3 on.
😏 it would blow me and the ladder over side ways on 😎👌👍
WOW! What type/model of wet sandblaster do you use?
Any dry presure pot and inject water into the nosel keep things simple 👌 👍
People started to paint, or render, bungalows because they thought red or yellow brick looked old-fashioned. Rendered walls show any dirty stripe from the leaking guttering, just looking at my neighbour's bungalow now.
😊 that's also something I can clean with ease get them to contact a specialist before painting any professional cleaning company love that sort of work but its far between because people think over painting is the answer 😏👌👍
Fired brick has a hard exterior face. It provides a waterproof surface. The interior material is softer. Sandblasting can remove that surface and expose the softer material to weathering. Sandblasting will remove the structural mortar. This then requires laborious hand repointing of all the joints. Sandblasting is a really bad idea. Chemical stripping is best but far more expensive.
4" clay brick is still a 4" clay brick after blasting I can 100% guarantee it won't turn into a sponge and it will still perform like a new brick yes it will change the appearance but it's better then painted brick? Can I ask what makes you an expert ?? Because from my experience what your saying is wrong about everything else
I suppose, now all bricks require a good protection since the blasting removes the slick surface and opens pores?
No just re point and it will be like a new build 👍 blasting won't make a 4" clay brick a sponge its still a 4" clay brick 👌👍
👍👍👍
😊👌👍
Looks much better but still needs some character. Maybe some shutters and landscaping.
The owner has text they have it ground out ready for repointing they definitely not dragging the feet with this project 😊👌👍
17:48 flatearthers just left the chat 😂
😂
house can breath now
Not sure that was the reason they had this done I think it was for the look of the job as they needed to repoint it 👍👌
I wonder if removing the paint helps the house to breathe better? Moisture wise?
It's a possibility but I think they had this done so for the look no issues of damp 👍
Just asking pressure wash on old brick wall to remove paint will not cause sepage issue?
This isn't pressure as such it's only 125psi the water is only for dust suppression it'd the media doing the work 👍
Please tell us what abrasive and what grit size you used on this job.
Crushed glass and my own blend not something that can but bought off the shelf. I buy in bulk from the quarry this enables me to tell them what I want. 👌👍
👍
😊👌👍
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😊
😊👌👍
Здравствуйте. А кто подрезает кусты вдоль дороги вначале видео? Владелец земли или администрация города?
🤷 I was there to blast not question the hedges 😂
What would be the average cost for this to be done on a bungalow?
For Business Enquiries Please Email Info@MobileBlasting.co.uk Regards Mick
It doesn't look like you are using any medium just very high pressure water OR am I missing something?
Low pressure media and water is only added to suppress the dust 👍
Didn't realise that sandblasting could use water. Ive seen other CZcams videos where it's dry
Yeah its called dustless blasting but its still very messy the water is to suppress the dust it don't do anything els 👍
What’s all this driving to the job to do with sand blasting?
I'm a mobile blaster I wouldn't be very mobile without it 😏😂
When you fill in the joints,which is the mortar between the bricks. Itis called, "Chinking them".
I've never heard that before 😳 I know it as jointing them up or repointing 😬👌👍
@@MobileblasterI have always heard the term pointing or repointing, chinking.only in the Appalachian region but different regional terms are common for different jobs.
What area do you cover?
Yorkshire and the surrounding areas depending on the job 👍
no masking of the door/windows?
did you watch the video?
Cover glass?
Did you watch the video?
🤩Lovely !🤩
This should have 10k likes already ..
😇❤
😊👌👍
One thing that never looks good ...is painted bricks
Nice job
My thoughts exactly 😊👌👍
this only works on very hard bricks, believe me I've been in the industry for 40 years
Well you should know alot better than to comment like that then... 40 year doing various things or shop blasting doing the same or similar thing?
Missed a lot of paint in the grout, wouldn’t have to grind if you got it all
Did you watch the video? The joints was ready for repointing and that was getting done after anyways. Infact I've had a text of the owner they have it ground out ready so soon 👌👍
I personally don’t like the orange colour of bricks, so I let my house be painted. And I’m willing to let it repaint every 5-7 years with special paint for breathing purposes and pay for it.
Personal choice and I like it. So no mistake, fault or fatal error here.
I'm glad people do paint brick and stone it keeps me in work 😊👌👍
Soda blast instead
Soda would be too expensive as it would take 100x as much media as it just wouldn't have enough bite to cut through the paint
👍👍👍👍👍👍🤣🤣👈👈
😊👌👍
@@Mobileblaster 👍👍☝☝👈👈
Wasting a large amount of water
Sorry what? How would you recommend I remove the paint?
Считаю бессмысленным со строительной точки зрения
What about aesthetics view?
There should be jail time for anyone painting brick
😂
As that is in a rural location; that would be more likely referred to as a cottage and less a bungalow 🤨
😬👌👍 I thort cottages had thatch roofs and period features like beams on display never thort it was to do with location?
Careful not to make those bricks too porous.
@@davidspendlove5900 that's not applicable 😊
Oh what a fudging mess
Yeah one of the messiest jobs about but I make sure it's clean when I leave or have spoken about leaving some 👍
Still does not look great. At least now they can render it.
Please subscribe so you don't miss the finished product I will post photos on my community wall when they have the joints filled in 👌👍 it will look like a new build 👍
It looks about a million times better
Old brick comes out extremely pocked when you sandblast it, better to just repaint it.
What is pocked? Don't fall for the bad rep that the industry gets follow my channel and I will prove time and time again blasting is a great method. Bad operators give the full industry a bad name lots of guys out hear with plenty of skill to prove the haters wrong 👌👍
