I'm retiring from the Trowel after 50 years. Your love of the Job and Honesty do you a credit. Some say you're 'Gobby' but from what I've seen on your videos, you can back it up. Best of luck with the work and your new arrival. That's what we all work out in the Muck and rain for.

Glad to see your having a good time. All the best for the new arrival🎉

Great video Charle look forward to seeing next one

Interlock and perp them up in Scotland depends who u building for out the big 5 up here Cala Taylor whimpey persimmon barrett dandara but we mostly use the other trench block in foundations

Awesome 😎

You are on the best rates ive heard of around our area Charlie. Average for cambs herts is about £600-650 and £16 per meter Are the houses a ball ache to build or something?

I swear it's a requirement to have the same high fade and shit neck tattoo as every other mungo on a site to be allowed on

Used those trench loads. They're meant to be interlocked if you read the paperwork. They're made at 440 though so they're shit for bond.

12,££ threw the wall back in the 80/90 and they did nt you anymore for piers or soldiers over lintels, nothing extra was a struggle to earn a decent wage.day rate £67.50 . That’s why you see a lot of 80/90 estate brickwork looks like dog shit every fukker was slashing them down. Lot of lads lost thier homes mortgage repossessions, they would fight for weekend work. One day we had to lift about 20 special stone lintels on with the telehandler think we earn about £15 each that day, I was gone , trowel in bucket gone

How is your payment worked out? Does someone come out and check your work? Do you tell them a number and they take your word for it? Is it worked out before hand how many bricks you'll place at a certain point/ by the end of the job?

Looking forward to hearing you and izzy talk it out 👍👍 thanks for the fantastic video again dude 👍👍

Just interlocking my friend

Depends on the bigwigs site i was on gang did a footing interlocked the trench as you do and got told to take it down for having no perps

We use them trench ,on the spec that my mate Leroy found it says you don't perp them just fill in the top

What do you pay your hoddie is it on price or hourly rate thanks?

Wow your subs are huge. I remember when you had less than 20k!

Interlock and fill the hole on top.You don’t need to perp them according to manufacturers spec but I have had to perp them on some jobs just because the building company wanted that to be done.

I was a hody for years loved it that was 50 years ago money was hard to earn

Bloody ell Charlie, their good rates up here in Burnley , 550 a thousand ,and those trench , i darent tell you !,,, £1.55 a trench !! We’re being robbed .

Is that Hopkins site over the back of Halstead woods

I did bricklaying from leaving school 20 years ago. Back when I was an apprentice it was 500 a thousand then so considering how much house prices have rose you should be getting a lot more. That's why I left the trade and never looked back. Body not in pieces earning more and don't get rained off. Miss the crack but bills get paid

Good luck🇲🇦❤

Keep the videos coming..u an izzy th e brickie should have a race..he ain't putting up much videos atall anymore

Always better to be on a decent day rate . Stress free

Always better with a joint on anything under the ground especially on a big site.

Don’t perp them 😂 the interlock is the whole point 🤷🏼‍♂️

We always perp the interlocking blocks we use them quite often too

You don't butter them trenches they are a toggle joint, but them up and fill the hole, easy peasy 👍

Charli boii on the roundabout at Stortford fields 👌👌

Got a £1 block in 1997 so if it was matched with property inflation it would be £4.50 today.

Bricklaying is amazing

I have perpendicular trench blocks before but after watching your video last week i have stopped - way quicker, cheers

Cracking syrup you've got there, where yer get it from

What about 7.3 solid concrete 4" & 6 "

Busier than a one armed bricklayer in Baghdad

Christ we’re on 520/1000 £1.5 4” and £1.65 trench 🥴

👍

Great vids charlie showing how it really is, goes from great pay to shite in no time 👍

Do you get paid square on apex’s

We’re on £550 a thousand 15pm blockwork . Turbo blocks . Cambridge area

Our prices are shocking £600 @ thousand had to go on day rate as bricks we are using are shite can’t go more then 10 course with them as it buckles semi engineering ibstock bricks you have to stop laying at 2 o’clock as it’s impossible to point up been in the trade 44 years worst site ever been on

😊

Carpenter of 40yrs, I would advise any young guy to set out on their own when you feel the time is right, I wish I had done it sooner, no point wrecking your body to get a decent wage every week for employers who constantly move the goalposts and who could not give a toss, only got one back and a pair of knees.

A another example of a great craftsman at work

Always been told to perp them from foremen

gordon ramsey?

Não abandone o Casio F91W é parte de voçe o relogio

They keep dropping the prices

No but you get them on KZfaq 😂😂

and there is the reality of being self employed.

Brickies been racking it in for a while wasn’t gonna last forever. Will come back around at some point.

Charlie Lou I went there

There are brickies who can set out n have the drawings in the bucket n the ones that just lay bricks

£550 a thousand and £15.00 for blocks now.. That was the rate in 2012. The £200 day work rate will diminish very quickly now.. SLAVERY IS BACK..

have u ever paid tax between 2000//.2022

👍👍back in the day charlie it was £100/ thousand and £12 through the wall /m2 . i'm talking late 80s early 90s .

What happened to Izzy the bricky

He’s going to the start of next brick which makes it 900.

Always interlock as they’ve been designed that way defeats the design and stress performance by buttering perps.

How on earth is their Backs not fucked by the end of the day? Fair play gents.

Homelander again 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

I used to love bottoms and footings, make some canny money!

interlock all day long

block and brick will be the past

Rates are shocking, but making it pay still. Lads arnt up to it so are struggling.

Best brickie on planet smashing them and tidy m8

The money you can earn is heartbreaking to hear for me as a scaffolder

Charl when you goi g to do modeling let's see ammy .I miss her x

Makes more out of KZfaq then bricklaying I reckon

So you brickies are busting a gut for £200-£300 a day depending on the rates?

The rates you guys are getting paid is ridiculously low. In Vancouver Canada where I live you can easily get $20 CDN a square foot for installing brick which amounts to $3.33 per brick or $3330 CDN per thousand which equals roughly $2000 Pound Sterling for 1000 bricks laid. That includes the labor only and does not include any of the materials whatsoever. Some contractors are getting $30+ CDN a square foot. How can you make money at those rates is beyond my understanding.

On building sites you have to say f** every 5 seconds to prove your ain't no poofter.

Okin ell mate 700 a thousand bullocks Australia its $3 or 1550 pounds a thousand those prices we'd go broke on that here . say you got 2 trowels and a labourer you both lay 500 each that's 1000 pounds take out wages 250 250 150 that leaves 350 king Charles will tax that too = bullocks on toast

Fkn dog shit prices round here. And on tops aswell😢😅

We were made to joint them up bloody pointless

If its 4 bricks long, from brick to brick, isn't the gauge 890? If its 8 bricks, it's 1790.

I want a job give me a job i'm a bricklaer🖐

£575 in Glasgow fucking desperate

Charl ure too clever for ure own good

I hate that stage of any job, horrible

ATM Zero..... nothing is selling 😢🤠🐎

Stop swearing kids might be watching

We lead them yeas ago u interlock and fill the hole with muck

Site work such a shitty job glad i dont do it!

Weather going to be crap might not make nothing .

how many fuckin brain 🧠 cells

Head down ars up don't work harder get smarter

It's brickwork one on top of the other 😂

Good videos skilled man. I use Muslim bricklayers so I don't get no pigs in the wall anywhere
