Hey everyone, Welcome back.
This is going to be a few part series, this is day 1 of building a flemish bond extension. I enjoyed doing flemish bond... its a bit slow going though, you feel like you're getting nowhere fast.
We didn't flemish bond the plinth because the customers wanted it to match the existing extension as much as possible.
Hope you enjoy the video, if you have any comments please pop them in below. Don't forget to subscribe if you want to see more.
Thanks for watching :)

good to see bond set out from new corners back to building, any discrepency can be adjusted with broken bond against the building.

Them jigs are alright but quicker , faster and cleaner with a drop saw, please wear a mask.Bwk looks great but 4 and 1 mix with white cement is a very strong mix and it looked like two lots of 100mm DPC not one 225mm as it should be. 👍

Nice to see corners being built properly and not using profiles, by the time you've set profiles up the corner is half way up. In my experience profiles are for bricklayers who can't build proper corners.

I thought that with the plinth bricks too, but then saw that they were matching what was done on the original house, it would bug the hell out of me though.
