Hi everyone,
Today I'm sharing with you how I made my DIY raised patio step from slabs and rendered breeze blocks.
This only cost me £62 in materials compared to a quote I got of £350 and took a day to do.
And to celebrate reaching 10k subscribers this month, FFX have kindly teamed up with me to offer a giveaway prize of £60 worth of tools to all my UK viewers!
FFX: www.ffx.co.uk/
(This is NOT a sponsored video - I was originally offered the same through my blog for an honest review, so I asked if they would offer you something too!)
THE GIVEAWAY HAS NOW CLOSED

Take a soft 4 inch paintbrush, you can dip it in water and go over the render with it, smooths it out and makes a nice finish, also helps to stop it cracking if it's hot, you should do this when it's reasonably firm, you can do this on interior plaster too, sometimes helps get a nice smooth corner.

Nice job , we call the big hammer a lump hammer and bolster chisel , when I was an apprentice ( many years ago ) we made our own floats out of floorboarding , round the edges slightly so as not to dig in and screw a wooden handle to it , make one big one small , we put screws in the outer edges to give a scratch finish to the scratch coat ( first or base coat ) , then back off the screws to do the float finish , you can buy 2 sizes in the plastic floats to . you can use a damp sponge to give a slightly textured even finish , makes rounded corners easy to -)

Just brilliant. Again :o) Sincerely. This is another job *very* nicely done. Another name for the chisel is "bolster". And when you take a very well-earned breather from all this heavy construction work out in the cold and wet you can show us how to make a whole set of custom roughing floats in the tool shed out of nicely sanded scrap timber. That way you'll have floats of varying widths and lengths for most of the jobs you take on, ideally suited to your own hands. Not to mention making your own custom sized wooden plasterers hawk... :o)

Another good build. The wide chisel is a bolster chisel, they come in different widths and are sometimes just known as a bolster. Which I find funny as a bolster is also a kind of pillow/cushion.

Rendering at ground level will come off with frost, shutter and concrete would have been better because you could use the slabs underneath to keep cost down. Ballast and cement would have only been £20. and lasted a life time.

A good first try; well done. Though maybe mortar could've been a bit damper :-) With your rendering, you could have used any piece of 'prepared' wooden off-cut and gently rub ove the surface like youwould've done with your float. Soak it in water first, keep the render moist by flicking it with a brush and Hey-Presto! Nice smooth, flat finish :-)

Hi Vicky. Good video again. A couple of tips. Try to lift your level off the slabs when you are tamping them down with a mallet. The shock can damage the bubble. Also it’s easier to wait for the slabs to dry and then sweep in the dry mix. Less mess and much faster 👍🏻

Het again just a small comment this time but the hammer and chisel you used at the start is a lump hammer and bolster chisel and one more tip is to use a wet sponge when the render was firm and this would give you the same results as the floating trowel but apart from that you did a great job and if there was more people like you around i would be out of a job lol

Just get yourself a very cheap metal Float and cut it to about 4 inch width with angle grinder,I found that it came in very handy for narrow sections to render like you had.Another one is that when it starts to go off,get a small sponge with the coarse nylon scrubber on one side,it will give you a textured finish on the render when rubbed down,a cheap way to try a couple of new methods for you

Great Video , I'm sure you're aware of Bostiks cementone Acid Brick and Patio cleaner and it's great for cleaning any staining that can occur when doing jobs like this , then obviously seal after . Keep up the good work .

Thank you! No, I didn't know what kind of acid! That's another thing I planned on looking in to soon as the mortar mess on the conservatory is a right mess haha. Also, what would you seal it with?

To finish off the render you can use a damp sponge to give it a nice effect
