 It is Monday the 10th of July, 20 to 10. We got here a bit late today. We thought we forgot the window templates, but it turns out we had them. We buried them, buried under the bricks. So we got here a bit later today, but we're here now. Task today is this. So we're going up about 12 courses, just reducing this window, that's it. So cut enough about here, and then obviously I could just mention we've got a template to cover that up until the windows come. Yeah, as you can tell by the time lapse, so I'll load it out. Mix is up and ready, just got to get the mix in. I've got all the inside covered up, so I'll be doing the blockwork inside while Dad gets the brickwork done. But before all that, this needs to come out, which shouldn't be too bad, knock on wood. We'll find out, but yeah, that's all there is to it, so we will catch you in a minute. Oh, and just a side note, you'll have to add this part on Dad. This isn't all we're doing here, we've got three windows to do total, but right now the other two need to be on scaffold. One is actually, I can put... One is up there, and the other's running back, which we'll show you in a later time, but yeah, we'll be waiting on Malcolm to get the scaffolding up for that, which hopefully he does today or tomorrow. Otherwise, we'll be off. I'll be off soon, anyway, it's my birthday soon. You have to wish me happy birthday on the 13th of July. I'm saying that. This video will be out in bloody September, so it'll be coming on, but anyway. Yeah, so today is this one, and then when the scaffold goes up, it'll be the other two, which again, I think one of them is being reduced with a 900 length going in, and then another one is being brick and blocked up again as well. I'm sure Dad will give you this run down again at some point, so yeah. Now we'll catch you in a bit for the getting rid of the window. It's happily washed up on time, that's because it came out so quick. A bit more dodgy workmanship. We had the rattle of red to set the screws out, but there was no screws in it. No screws, whatsoever, hold me in. Which is wedged in, and it wasn't even screwed to the self, so we tapped the rubber mallet and out it came. Which works for us, but that's not fair. Not ideal, but great for us, yeah, but not ideal when your window's fitted like that. Bless you. So yeah, we're gonna pop these two soles off and I'm gonna start getting into this with the sawzall. And then while I'm doing that, I'm just gonna mix them. What we'll do is while we're here, Alex, is we'll get the upstairs prepped as well, the bathroom and the whole thing, like get all this done. This looks like it may work one block. Well, it's too brick opening, so I think it's one block. Nice. Yeah. Cool. So let's crack on. I could do pinning a sheet over the door, over the window, while I'm sawzall, so it's not blowing in. Put a couple of nails at the top and bottom. Yeah, let's get set up. Just got this other side plastered to take off. And the two soles. Yeah, oh yeah. Well, I've done the sojourn out, but let me show you in pointing. Yeah, there's a line where it's lifted and it's cracked the brick, so. Completely awkward spot for us because our scaffold's going over here. So we're gonna have to get that up a lot of it. We're only supposed to do any window, but we're gonna do the link of all of it because the link is completely short. It's a good idea. So yeah, let's carry on. We've got the cheeks all exposed. There's our height, hence the line, so a little bit more to come off that side. I'm gonna touch off this side. 20mm. And then this is no way to screw. Oh my God, that came out even easier. Yeah. Oh, there's a nail in it. Oh, a single nail. Oh no, two. Two, but they're in the same like block, so they won't ever hold them really. So there you go, sorted. I think you might just take that bit of cap. That's the big chunk out there. See when there's a sill over there, you don't see them. So I'll put that over at it. There's a resident. We'll get our homes back up. Yeah, so that's it. We're ready for the saws all now. So Alex is gonna nail us a sheet up there to keep them dust from blowing in the hole. And I'm gonna get these halves cut out. 12 halves. I'm gonna do it at my side. I'm gonna nail it at my side. Yeah. I'm happy. We're ready to get this cut out now, as you said. And I've just measured this, and it's 440. But it's just 450, 460, so perfectly works a block. No cutting. Just one, two, three, four and a bit blocks. So I'm very happy with that. I'll get you set up for Dad to whack out these halves with the saws all, and I'll get the mix on, like Dad said, so I'll catch you in a bit. See you up here. We've pulled back that hour we've lost this morning. Easy. That thing, doing the business again, I'd say 20 minutes tops there to get 12 halves out. See how I have a nice, just cut straight through them, and just pop them out, and you cut the top. So it leaves a little bit more trim, so it's all sealed up. So now it should be just two bricks, three, two, three, all the way up to here. Then once that's in, I can get the timber frame inserted, and a couple of screws into that, so that's temporarily fixed, till it probably comes back, and gets the windows fitted. So that's my job now. I'll just snip the torch, I'm gonna do that now. Start the brick work, till he gets here. Once he gets here, he can jump on the block, and then I'm gonna go off to berries and get some insulation, some 50 mil. Yeah, oh yeah. That's the plan, I forgot I've got to take this brick out here. It's a bit scabby now, don't need that in. There are chips in the house, in the bricks, but not many, so that would stand out like a sore thumb. So I'll just put that one out, and I'll get me more set up and get ready. Quick update, obviously nicely working one block, but of course, so we thought we'd left the template, we hadn't, so we went back home, realised we had our template, but we completely forgot that we still needed insulation. But thankfully, because we're in Leyland, we can, that's just nipped to berries, so we're just gonna grab some insulation now, because I think we need some for some lintel job to come up anyway. So, not a massive loss, just a bit annoying that we wound up forgetting a bit of bloody insulation. But yeah, this is looking nice so far. I've got my screw ties in, and I've got my, I'm thinking because it's 72, 73s. That's all right, we can put the tie-wires in accordingly. I was gonna put them in now, but we've already got a set in. So we've got our tie-wires in, got our screw ties in. In fact, you know what? Screw tie, tie-wire, that's the second one. We're onto you a lot. Yeah, so I'll get another set of screw ties in on this course, and then we'll get the rest of the tie-wires in, probably on the next course. So, progress. I'll get you set up while I start block cleaning until dad gets back. Done. I wish all wind had patched up so that easy, bloody hell. There you go, four blocks, and the course of break is what topped it off. So I'll just show you on this side, point it up in this side as well, Mr. Spot. There we go, that's both sides pointed up. So plenty of more to pack in there, tie-wires. Two, four, six, six. There you go, and look who's arrived, just in time. What time is it? Let me check my watch, 12.06. Gonna go for a bit of lunch, we'll see what dad says, but that's my part done. So once Dad's got this brick working, I think, well I think now that I'm done, I think I'm gonna make a start, making a mess upstairs, I think. Get start, make a start at least ready for the brick and block work when we get onto this job of inch. Next, when we get onto the next part of this job eventually. Right, we had a bit of a long dinner, it had been raining, and there you go, now this is a little, it's the only frame that's going in a minute, I'm gonna do that. Stripping off, not literally, stripping the plaster off very, very, breaking up. I will send you up to him so he can explain what's going on, then he can send you back. Ready? So I'll sink the plastics. So, I'm knocking all this bit out, only this side because the windows being blocked up to here. That's gonna still be a window. This is gonna be blocked and bricked off just to make it easier to use and not have to faff around. So. And then when the scaffold gets done, we're gonna put a new little outside because it's napped. Yeah, well you can see a bit here that it's definitely rusted. Nice timber one here, that one's fine. Just gonna take this out a little bit more, reckon, and then doing the same with the bathroom. Customers thankfully just got rid of all the stuff in there so I can make a mess. Yeah, just show what we're doing. The back we're building in from the right-hand side. So we're building in from this side up to somewhere about here, I think. There you go. That's that plan of action. You just have. Butterfingers. Good job, it's on carpet, isn't it? That was a lousy throw. Anyway, yeah, that's good. I'm gonna whack that in a sec. Like I say, Robbie's built all the dubby frames so we can come build them in and then leave it secure and then he can come after and then the winds are gonna fix straight in and we're not like building the open. Like I say, that's straightforward enough. But yeah, we'll be fixing the dummy frame in before we build it. And actually, sorry about the wind, we'll be putting the dummy frame in and actually building up to it which makes it quicker and easier for us. And then the opening can't be wrong for Robbie then because that's where he's measured his winds to his dummy frame. So this is just for security, this one. So I'm gonna get this in and then get it fixed in with a couple of grabbers and then going out of the house upstairs. We wanna get this done as quick as possible because the customer's mum is like elderly so we wanna get the stairs uncovered as quick as possible because it's a bit dodgy having them even for young people to walk upstairs with the dust sheet on it. So yeah, that's the plan. Alex is nearly done up there so we can start tidying up down the stairs and then get into the bathroom and I'll get this bit fixed in and tidied up. So yeah, I'll just put it in the time box. These bricks are like iron. Yep. What's happening with these tiles that they're getting put back on? Pardon? Now they're getting put back on. Just take them off as easy as you can up to the edge. Lift them ones off. Just take the underside ones and literally leave the edge in on it as easy as you can in case they can be repaired but it should be an edging round the corner. Try and leave that on. Just take the inside, the underside ones off as you can. You might be able to. You can see what you probably saw the first two in the video. Those bricks are tough. You're brilliant to these, they'll be straightened but these original house bricks are so hard. Extra, extra tough then. Should really with it being temporary should just go into the beds. But they don't really work well into the beds, the grabbers. But like I say, it's temporary. Just stick some insulation in there. There's a little gap at the top so that's just enough for any drafts. That's secure now. Alex is done with the lamp and he's actually in the bathroom now. So I'll take it up there. There we go. That's one, one window done. Pretty, pretty nice brick mix there as well. Not too bad because you're in the other options where very orange or slightly orange. Yeah, not bad. And then I'll take you inside quick so you can see the rest. There's my side. And then up here, now everything's clean. Here's all this part knocked out for this window and here's all this knocked out for that window. The break was already there. Just want to let yous know that. I didn't break that window. The crack got a bit bigger but it was already cracked to begin with. So in that, up to here, here we go. So I'll take you back out. And that is us for today. So we'll be back here tomorrow, hopefully. Is Mark and go back to you? I'm not sure today if I don't know. Or if any of the rain didn't keep us in the air ban. So we'll be back here hopefully tomorrow. We'll be doing some blockchain.
