 And there you go. We were one mix short. That just pried out with the pickaxe too, so almost every brick just like came loose as soon as it fell, so Good Thursday, 29th of Feb morning This is going to stay like that for another four years, 29th of Feb. This is today's job We're going to help that It wasn't going to give much help Skip through here. So yeah, basically that's coming down. We're digging a new foundation Copy that wall there So this is a one two three fourth wall on here now Yeah, obviously we're going to do it in there double skin as well And we're going to cut this back straight Where they've tied into it And cut that down straight And there we've put a couple of screw ties into that Yeah, that's the plan We better break these stones back first mate. Yeah That was hard Alex straight into it Yeah, but since my mark's too good Christine's really bad at the moment Alex's fully got it a bit, not as bad, but I think you'd rather be at home But you like the demo days don't you? Oh, it's nice. No So yeah, that's it. We'll get the tools out and then Get to this new job That's right. I was just looking for somewhere to put the camera on time. That's it, but I'll show you this I'd love to just drop it but we're done with damage the cave. We had enough boards We could have put the boards down. Yeah, we've only got one board because we had a bit of a rush this morning Plus if we do to pull it over it might tear that corner of that wall. So yeah need to be careful with that Yeah, let's get some power tools out Yeah, we can show you some new toys as well. Yeah some new toys You can't see much at the moment We have a proper trolley for the breaker So it's got somewhere to live with its chisels so we can't forget them anymore The battery's strapped from the back as well and we have a supercharger for the MX Which is gonna be a big help What else we got Yeah, and the SDS max We've got in we've got a circular saw which came with another 12 amp power battery The new six amp power forged batteries Which are the brand-new ones. They just brought out which are the same the six amp power same power as the 12 amp power but a lot smaller a lot more compact So I've got them to give it go as well Let's get set up then Well, that was a bit too easy There you go, it's a it's it out almost to the bottom Just enough yeah, and what do you know we've left the bar at home So dad's gonna go and get the bar. I'll go move all this into the skip and start Chipping away at the bottom courses Until he gets back On that wall I forgot to order the bricks I only ordered enough bricks for half the wall Today we've been messing around the van Swapping over and I forgot the wheelbarrow We've even got a gorilla truck to move it back as well to the skip We could do it without Imagine digging a space from walking back as well to the skip Yeah Well, there you go That's most of the wall in there Excuse me. I'm a Overheating and cooking and dying over here But um Yeah, that was a bit too easy. I think if that wall was here much longer That would have been falling on somebody. He saw how I didn't even need to push my foot to knock that over But yeah Mortars just crumbling apart Almost if almost every brick just like came loose as soon as it fell so Obviously some of it stayed in put but now was that was very ready for falling So yeah, now that I've got that I'm just gonna try and find any bricks underneath the ground now See if there's a foundation And then while dad's still out I'll try and maybe start digging a bit of a Bit of a trench And see where we go from there Yeah, there we go We'll catch you in a bit It's just a guesstimate because I don't have a tape measure on me, but That's just a little rough Idea so we know where we're digging It may have to be a bit bigger just because it's double skin. So I'm gonna have to make that a bit bigger, but that's fine It's just so I know what I'm looking for the concrete I know you don't need a massive foundation for doing walls, but That's a little bit air That's a bit air Not enough That just pried out with the pickaxe too so That's not gonna be hard once I find an open end for this concrete. It's just gonna pry out so Like I keep saying it's bad in practice, but it makes the job all the more easy for us. So Because for me, that's one reason why I love Brooklyn and all that because I know that I've turned this into something that's more safer more structurally sound just nicer because That was abysmal But yeah, the dig is uh, not going too bad. Like I say it just needs to get an open end for this concrete Which I'll get in a minute because it looks like it's stepped in a weird way. I think it's obviously It goes down that way. So if you need bricks that side just concrete this side, I'll figure something out. Dad will hopefully be back soon until then I'll keep cracking and uh Give you an update when I can well the concrete Is coming out much easier than we thought That's just prying out with the bar. We're not even gonna use a power tool yet I'm just giving that a few stabs with the bar and it's coming out. No problem Because we were very excited to debut our Our new little fancy little stand for our our breaker Yeah, now we don't Go to jobs and forget the muddy chisels The chisels live with it. Forget the chisels you know And now that we have everything on site, we don't need it The wall spring comes in to need the big stuff This spring loaded to the stand Very fancy And straps keep it in place. There's a spike there, isn't it? So sit it on. Yeah, and then to this here. It's for the battery You can't actually fit the battery charger on but um, we have an upgrade on the charger too So yeah, we got we got excited to show this off, but we can't show it off properly yet. We don't need it today Which I suppose is good. We can show off the new 12 ompire batteries and the forge batteries now because we're using the Max Yes Even the smaller breaker is a bit overpowered for this job That's the foot and that's a big bit of footing actually. So I just got the tip on it That's it go in the garden edge of it and pop it out that way big bit, which still didn't need any banging to get it out It's like that the whole way across So we could have done this in our caveman days Yeah So what was wrong here the the reeds are growing in the first course and pushed it over Basically, yeah all this thin layer of roots. Yeah, showing the weed membrane that stops. We're stopping things growing through it. It's completely Taking over with roots in it So what it did was The course above the concrete It just like formed like a damp course layer almost. Yeah, so obviously it was not Stuck to anything. No, so it was just it basically pried itself off hence a little portion. It fell over That's what it was just all across the bricks We're going plenty deep and plenty wide get a nice decent concrete putting in here Yeah, get these last few out That's going to be a bit of a pain to get out the post and the the footing be a bit beneath it But I think we're coming in a bit Post is solid. Yeah, I think we're coming in a bit. So we can probably leave the concrete in for the post And concrete to it. Yeah Could have built our water It seems like actually gets thicker here It seems like it actually gets thicker here I mean wider Wow, you notice It's all cracked. It's not out. It doesn't broke it. You can see there's There's no clean breaks in it So it's it's been cracked anyway Coming out of the infection So the brake hasn't touched this So basically this putting Some chunks like that doing nothing Four inches at the thickest Yeah, that's the biggest piece we've pulled out So in pieces we have broke that up, have we? and the bit nice bit of alex's Skip stacking skills Actually that's in times. Yeah lovely job So Just so he said to me then That's the wall down and the concrete out for half 10 And that's what the man missing for around 15 minutes as well. That's him on his own The sick one. I broke a couple of bits out of the breaker. He's done all of it And he's not good. He's not well He just liked these jobs as we all do Very wet this and mucky messy as you can see Yeah, because that worked that easy for us. There's more down there It's not concrete. It's like Like sand cement. So it's supposed to be broken out More or less down to the depth now We found good clay So we're going to take that level through at that at the clay. Just about one man between us today Alice has got her Breaks of air-cold Shouldn't be in really and I've got a I don't know if I can say what I've got, but I shouldn't be in either But we have to do it I feel bad bringing him in, but I can't work on me anymore. There's no way I could do this on me own But I didn't make him come in. It's Alex's choice, so And it's not me being a mean dad making him come in Obviously he needs the money too So we're going on early dinner Trying to have a little bit of a rest and then crack on after dinner But I wish we could go home Not good But struggling really bad here Oh, I can't get over how wet this is. I don't know where all the water's coming from But that makes it a pain in the ass and makes it all messy and horrible to dig So Alex's got through to that depth so we're going to take it down probably double that depth now As soon as that's done we can start getting some concrete in there. Let's just crack on There's one poorly person He's done so well today Teamwork, but he's done all the graft As you can see we're done I'm sure that's the depth who decides to go to So we're just going to fill it up with concrete until we run out of ballast, which is Alex A load of old ballast 3% so We're going to get rid of these two bars Have a little minute recuperate ourselves and then Alex is going to bucket gauge We've left a small bucket at home, haven't we? It's full of air ballast Alex is going to bucket gauge it as we did on the last job of the porch Bucket gauge four buckets half a bag of cement to bring it round to me tip it I'm going to mix it and tip it so he's going to keep bringing it and I'm going to keep mixing it So that's our plan And it's just going to about half two hours now There are beds nearly three Two forty That's good news isn't it, when you think it's three o'clock it's actually twenty two That's always good news Unless you want to finish early Tonight we're going to go back to Sarah's drop-off the insulation that's in the van Pick up another two eight before sheets for covering the pavement up tomorrow and we start the brickwork if we're here It depends on the weather and depends how we feel But the main thing is this concrete is going to be in today And we're going to cover the trench up With the big boards That's the foundation I'll zoom in on the uh with the editing where it's that wall down there It's the one the title of the video was sacked out. He can't count It's when you're only I only I only got enough bricks delivered for a single skim wall So I've uh let me mess on that one Yeah We're pretty level. We've just followed followed the laser level So in concrete time in a bit and take some cleaning There's dead cleaning mixture out I've just cleaned all the tools off and as you just saw berries have dropped off the bricks All the reds and the blue engineer ins And there you go. We were one mix shot So we've um, we've leveled it off We've scraped it down and leveled it off. So it would be Either a block and a brick or a block in a big bed You really think concrete at the same Pulled through sort of come back to the same same dip It's actually going to be the same Yeah But that was Quite a dig. We were deceived there was so they they put a good they put a good amount of concrete in Then covered it with bloody soil and crap then put a really awful One skin thick concrete Down up to like here Was it And then and then put the water for that So it was An archaeological adventure, but That will be it for today I'm for the video So next you'll be seeing the brickwork.
