Especially small jobs where there isn't much to do until we get the green light, wait around until the inspector shows up. But it's best to do things right and get an inspection.

    No leak if you just use a liquid applied waterproofing . I work in renos in australia . the only reason we end up having to rip it all out is that there isnt any waterproofing behind the tile . Dunlop does a liquid applied undertile waterproofing . added to that is a fiberglass meshing to put in the corners and junctions and you have a minimum 10 year warranty ( if done correctly should last for ever )

      Its not guys, chill. If you want to have it done right, this is the way. You dont use the plasterboard to support weight and this wall only has one layer of plasterboard. With this method you even have the advantage, that you can mount different mounts on the wall. If we/i do it, i use one layer "osb" and one layer plasterboard, or the method like in the video (when something "heavy" will hang on there). When we do plasterwork and we know something has to take more vibrations etc, we do 2 layers of plasterboard/or for sound insulation. This is maybe one of the best suggestions i can give: You get what you pay, better invest a little bit more $ in something you want to have for a long time, then fixing it all the time! Peace out ;-)

Screw one side to the teevee, the other to two adjacent studs. Free, strong and doesn't wobble like the brackets. It's neater too, as the teevee sits closer to the wall.

That has become my goto method when I need to do the same. Also, consider getting a Makita drywall screw gun, I would not go back to a drill or driver now that I have one, and not just for drywall.

      New Zealand has had a lot of trouble with poorly constructed tiled showers leaking. Because of this trouble regulatory authorities have placed strict controls on how they are to be constructed and checked. The fact that the current shower in this house is leaking is further evidence of the poor work practices that were common in New Zealand in the 1990’s and early 2000’s.

    • @mycoolcar
      @mycoolcar Před 4 lety +2

      thenakinavy yes, it does cost more for the council to do checks on higher value building work. A job totalling 10k will have significantly less items to check than a job worth 500k. It makes complete sense that a higher value job would require more checks and so these additional checks cost more. This pricing structure actually helps home owners as the compliance cost reflects the volume of work done.

      Larry F If you saw the number of showers that leak exactly at that point you'd know it's not that ridiculous. It's astonishing how many people think they know what's required to lay a watertight membrane. Or rather how many people don't even think there's anything to it or even tile a shower thinking the tiles themselves equate to a watertight enclosure. What's ridiculous is the consent charges for it. There should be a simple notification and inspection process just for the membrane.

      Yeah, so in theory you could do all the work yourself and then apply for a certificate of acceptance after the fact, but you'd need plenty of visual evidence that the work, the substrate and waterproofing membrane etc is up to code.
      NZ had a leaky building crisis similar to parts of North America, so this is partially a consequence of that and also coz there's a more recent 'healthy homes' initiative so that peeps aren't suffering from mold and stuff from leaking bathrooms etc.
      Up until around 1980, NZ homes didn't need insulation in the roof and I think the requirement for external wall insulation came in around the early / mid 1990's.

      @@richardbaron7106 Thank you. Over here in Slovakia, regulations are increasing, but only for new houses, reconstructions has no certificates. But if you have good plans from architect and engineer, than all certificates are based on that and you just build to the specs. (and no one here has a wooden house). We build either with bricks or Ytong (don't know how popular are they in NZ) bricks.Old houses are usually from clay bricks (clay mixed with straws - amazing material). So it's fascinating for me to watch how stuff is made in NZ or US. Very different.

      Europe def leads the way in sustainable building materials, construction techniques and insulation requirements - we're still lagging behind with noise insulation compared. I'm in a newly built townhouse with double-glazing and it's quieter inside my 21 year old Nissan Maxima QX!

    4:09 if you don't have studs in the right location, or if you have steel studs (commercial buildings), you can use toggle bolts. Drill a 1/2in hole for where the bolts would go and insert the toggle bolt and fasten to the object. Link below is a test by Project Farm showing its strength, a great channel testing trades tools, consumables, etc.

    It was totally unnecessary to open the wall the up to put in blocking. A couple lags into the one wood stud you had plus some toggle bolts into the drywall for good measure on the ends would have been fine, especially given that it's a flat mount. Even for an articulating mount, you would have been okay with that. These new TVs are not that heavy.

      I was thinking this. When I install TVs on plasterboard I use expanding anchors and not had any angry calls from a client yet. TVs are only getting lighter too. Though saying all of that, the TV did seem to have an adjustable angle and it was leaning very far forward. In that case I would look to using Corefix but in a timber framed house extra noggins is probably your best, if not only, option.
