  Speaker 2: going to do it now. Even that's the sound of
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: spitting into hands and rubbing them together. Yeah, it's a
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: dusty one, isn't it to blow the dust off the
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: fucking notes here? Like it's dusty.
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: I'm using a rock to hold down the notes on
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: the bottot of the car here as I talked.
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: Because because we are all fucking business this week, Tom,
• 0:39

• 0:42
  Speaker 2: them together, and get down the brass tacks. Enough of
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: this earl talk and crack this this week on the
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: Tom and Jerry Show. And you're all very welcome. But
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: this week on the Tom and Jerry Show, we're gonna
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: do a bit of labor.
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: Where Tom and Jerry are going to build a house.
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: We are going to build a house, ladies and gentlemen.
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: I mean, this is this. This has been a long
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: time coming, Tom, it has.
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: Been a long time coming. And we looked we have look,
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: we're not purposely trying to be total hipsters here by
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: trying to find things that other people haven't done, but
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: we kind of so far have And all I've ever
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: heard so far is advice podcasts and whatnot. Nobody has
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: gone bust in to the site to turning a key,
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: they've nobody's ever done a podcast. And this is maybe
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: there's maybe we're a bit fool hardy, but I reckon
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: we'll we'll get it done here. I reckon we'll make
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: a good job.
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: It is if anybody listened to this podcast is looking
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: to turn a sod on a green field site and
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: build a house but doesn't know where to start. Start here,
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: this is exactly what we're doing it.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: For so far, we hadn't been doing things purely for
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: the basis that it was just you know, our pleasure.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: But this, I think this is actually benefit people if
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: nothing else, you know, getting knowledge out of our head.
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: And we've we've got priors. Tom. I mean, like you
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: worked on the buildings for many years in very high
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: up roles. I gotta tell you weren't just throwing blocks
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: up the scaffold. Nows you weren't.
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: I have done my share of halland blocks and whatnot.
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: But we listen, we'll get to it. Somewhere in this
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: we'll we'll explain why why we're here, not just a
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: couple of fucking Mickey Mouse's characters. Albeit the show it's
• 2:09

  Speaker 2: ourselves in the foot by changing up the format of
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: the show. People seem to like it, or at least
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: people have been polite enough not to say that they hate.
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: We are getting banging comments, really really long comments from people.
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: There's people have gone and we've created more fucking wormhole
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: rabbit holes than Elon Musk could ever hope to fucking create.
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: The amount of people that have gone down rabbit holes
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: as a result of our last three episodes gone, what
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: have my days now?
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: Either gone on? And these guys are they you know,
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: it's brilliant. I love it. I love it. I'm let's
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: give them some more. Let's give them some more to
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: talk about, and let's give them some work. Tom, it's
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: time to build a house, all right, So let's get
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: into it.
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: Since time has been man, woman beast has always needed
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: a place to hang their hat in the evening Christ
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: Ephen the Lads and ther dying twenty thousand years ago,
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: decorating their caves and making them their own. With the
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: advent of TV shows like Kevin mcclown's Grand Designs, George
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: Clark's take your Pick really of He's got seventy million shows,
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: or dermomt Pan has room to improve, I seem society
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: has developed a right handkerf not just house ownership, but
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: house buildership.
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: I gotta tell you, I've never watched Derma Panel and
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: hear everybody banging on about him, and I've never not
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: watched the frame of a Tom. Are you very surprised
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: by that?
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: Because I would have talked purely for Twitter's a Twitter
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: live Twitter, because you are a great man by tweeting
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: things live. It is ripe for you in all fairs,
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: because there's so many Irish things in it too, you
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: know that kind of way.
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah, But at the same time, Tom, like boys that
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: served in Vietnam, didn't fucking line up to buy a
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: ticket to platoon, you know, I get. It's not what
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: we call it entertainment.
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: I know, I know, And to be honest with you,
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: I I've only seen one or two episodes of that myself.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: I do like the obscurity of some of the things
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: that George Clark does when he does amazing spaces, gives
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: good ideas for sheds and things like that, but when
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: it comes to actually building houses and not the rest.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: I watch Crevin McLeod purely for Kevin McLeod because he's
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: an absolute nod.
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: He's Relateiodus.
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the accent is nearly just as close. Yeah, yeah,
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: don't clouds the sword behind me?
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: Can you recognize that sword? Sure? Do you recognize the sword?
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: I can't get a good look at it.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: It's just so it's it's it's Conan's one.
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, oh very nice.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: Any any keen.
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: Eared people from our previous our previous episodes or a
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: series five and series four. We actually had a little
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: clip from Cone.
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: Oh I see it there, yes, yeah, oh yeah. You
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: cross a few enemies with that.
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: Yes you would, and hear the lamentations that are women,
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: but none of these things have anything to do with
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: these housebuilding shows.
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: But people are going mad from and Twitter lights up.
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: So the main thing here for that I've spotted is
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: then on every single one of these shows.
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: They failed to kind of pick up the day to
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: day whole pain.
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: Now I know they have a TV show to make
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: and all the rest of it that's you know, that's
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: involved with self built, And of course the candidates have
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: you know that they pick have a harrowing story alla
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: you know X Factor or whatever where the sad music plays,
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: or simply they're complete lunatics who have no clue what
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: the Christ have let themselves in for. So with that
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: mind we hear a TNG and Sons felt it right.
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: We should outlay for the lay person the steps that
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: are involved in building. Budding builders among the be bold
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: enough to take on a self built or at the
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: very least, you know, have some ammo for when that
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: contractor starts sucking through his teeth and clearing you know
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: the enormity of the job in hand. Or if you
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: just want to be a bit smoke sitting on this
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: sofa next week you can sit there and talk them through.
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: You'll just point things out like a proper smoke bastard does.
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: Do you find yourself doing that when you're.
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: I was just gonna say, I'd be more along the
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: lines of the contractor. You know, I've had a few
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: buys in here going like, hm, that's gonna be a
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: big job, and I'd be like, is it now? With
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: my limited knowledge, I can tell you it's not. I
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: don't know how I'll be able to do that. Oh
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: don't you know. Let me give you a few fucking tips.
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: So I like that anybody that's building the house from
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: now on, your contractor comes along and goes, oh, yeah,
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: we've we've run out of wall plate. You listen to
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: this podcast and you'll be able to go no ballocks
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: eighty four of it over there exactly exactly.
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: And we will do this in a step by step guy,
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: so you can literally skip back to the point, make notes,
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: get out the notebooks, make notes. If you're even considering
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: building an extension out the back, this will apply to everything.
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: But we are going to go from the ground up
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: so that you can actually go back and find the
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: step and go hold on the two buys. Cause I
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: know you're thinking at this time, you know, how in
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: the hell could comedians have a Bog's notion and clue
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: how to even begin telling us how to build a
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: house well, like Jerry was saying earlier. Rist easy Jerry
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: for anybody, and I'm sure you all do follow him
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: on socials. Jerry is kind of a serial and extremely
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: talented di wire. Honestly, you put me to shame when
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: it comes to DIY and imaginative things. Now, Jerry, in
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: all fairness to you, somebody.
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: Say only a crazy person could think.
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: The mom.
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: No and case in point, and I hope you'll I mean,
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: you didn't get any golf off the bin company? Did
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: you putting the you know, putting a tap on your bin?
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: Not yet, Tom, Okay, I might have to edit that
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: bit out, but you know what I mean. You you
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: you think outside the box.
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: I'll give it a go. Oh yeah, I'll give it
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: a go. Tom. Yes, absolutely, sir. I've got twelve years
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: experience in the hardware business, don't you know. I used
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: to work in several hardware and builders providers Uphill and
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: down Dale, Tom. Some of them I had to stop
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: working in them the owners asked me to Yeah.
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: I mean all fairness like, there's hardly a you know,
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: a length to timber or fixing or a ceiling that
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: you didn't see in or like I'd say, is.
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: There no, I tell you, And that's why that's like,
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: that's why we said earlier. When you have a contractor
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: going like there's no fitting a live that will do
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: that job, that's when you get fucking Jerry over there
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: to go, hang on a second, I can name you five.
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah, in all fairness, I've gone to you a few times.
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: Aging com here and then a product names really products
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: is what Jerry knows, the products throughout. And like Jerry
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: was saying, I've spent my time. I was a cite
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: civil engineer for a good few years, twelve years in construction, ahol,
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: A lot of blocks labored for the first couple of years,
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: you know, and I've kind of seen a fair bit
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: of a granted a no awful lot of it was
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: just shouting while I was doing the engineer stuff, but
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: it was during the boomlets. Everybody was shouting making a fortune, shouting,
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: making a fortune, shouting, aging going gray in my twenties.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: But you know what I mean, it was good time.
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: We learned a bit. Long story short, We're not gonna
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: put you that far wrong exactly. This is not going
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: to set out to be you're not gonna set out
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: to build a dorm or bungalow, follow our instructions and
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: end up with like a fire station or something.
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: The idea is here just to steer you right, do
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Just to steer you white.
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: So that being said, let's get off to the races.
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: So chuck on your hard hat, put on your steel cap, boots,
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: and fire on the al visives. We're heading to site.
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: So forest informosts will assume we'll just skip over the
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: bits like and people can come back with questions and
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: stuff we may or may not be able to answer.
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: But for this the project that is, we're giving a
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: very broad once will assume that your planning has been granted,
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: and it's for a standard two story masonry's house with
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: a strip foundation, it's in good soil and whatnot. Now
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: we're gonna not gonna debate the merits of you know,
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: your operation being either direct labor, which is essentially you
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: being your own building company and you hiring the trades
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: and materials as per you need them.
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: No, or you know, you can go hire a builder
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: who do all that.
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: Today is for those people who actually fancy project managing.
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: The job themselves. So this episode we're gonna paint by numbers, literally,
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: step by step, how to go about building Effecond with
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: as few highly hold surprises as we can manage. So
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: we're making the assumption that you've all the trades found
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: to We're not going to tell you how to go
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: through the Yellow Pages, you know, or anything that you've
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: found them or you've talked to cousin, you used the
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: fellow one that you've got a list of. Right, we're
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: assuming that's all been done. This is a pure step
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: by step as to how the thing comes out of
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: the ground. So let's get building.
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: Let's get some work done.
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: I'm sure there's I'm sure there's a that should be
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: that should be.
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: You know, the way they move that bust.
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: Have you ever seen that one of now that showed
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: the American ones? Every everybody cries, everybody cries.
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: Everybody whinges, tom oh, the cribbon.
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: The cribbon is something severe. So, like I said, we're
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: going to give you just step by step. This isn't
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: going to be as big storyboard of a thing. Step
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: by step as to how you're going to get this
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: thing out of the ground.
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: Andre and myself build your house and one hundred easy parts.
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: Usually there's only nine cent. You're gonna have to buy
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: a three D printer, you know what we joke.
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: But you can get houses three three D built now,
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: so save that for the next episode.
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: No, I wouldn't know that that. Now. This is ou school.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: This is how you'll have to do it in Ireland.
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: This is old school and all fairness. So all right, Tom,
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: build me a two story, Build me a two story
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: masonry house with a strip foundation on a green field
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: site in the country their power.
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: Let's get her done right. The first things first, site
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: prep you gotta do it. You gotta do it, same
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: as bacony cake.
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: You gotta do it.
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: So once you know you're planning and preparatory workers in
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: place and you everybody gotten and all the rest of it,
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: all the trades a rigs go. You know your materials
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: are you know, and this side prep doesn't just include
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: you know, cleaning to breen. It also ensured that you
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: know the necessary facilities are set up for trades people.
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: So you're very first thing, very first thing, before you
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: even go into the place, you've got to take out
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: self build insurance policy. Yeah, gonna be none of that
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: slip and fall shit around here, Tom exactly exact, because
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: it will happen. I guarantee it. If you don't take
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: it out, I guarantee it'll happen. And it's self built.
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: So there's two different ones. There's you know, there's ones
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: for if you actually have a builder, because the builder
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: and have his own, but you will have your take
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: out yourself build one. You'll be glad you did it
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: now you'll have gotten these buys in these are the
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: rough necks groundworkers. You want them to create a good
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: wide access where assuming you're on your own green field site,
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: so a good wide site access.
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah. And if you haven't created a wide enough one,
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: don't worry. The first lory to deliver stuff to the
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: place will widen it for you.
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, just pick a hole and he will bust
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: it out the rest to do it. So you're going
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: to clear the site, strip back off vegetation soil, you
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: know top soil, essentially, get back to the substide, you know,
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: stacking material nice, retain it out of the way because
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: you're gonna want that when it comes to landscape, and
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: so pack it away nicely.
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: This is like if you if you eat your pizza
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: like a child, and you take all the cheese off
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: the top of it and leave that to one side
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: and eat the bait to the pizza and say I
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: might eat that cheese last. Okay, what we're doing, that's
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: what we're doing here, Tom, All right, we remember this
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: cheese that we've got here, this this vegetable style and
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: sacking material. Remember that that's gonna come back later on.
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: I love that.
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: That's absolutely yeah, perfect, perfect, Right, We're coming back to
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: the cheese later on.
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: Store the cheese safely in the corner of the side.
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: So now you're gonna bring in a bunch of stone,
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: probably thirty forty ton of stone, and you're gonna make
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: a nicety yard for material and workplace.
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean. That's pretty hardcore, Tom. I
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: know you're I know you know what I'm gonna tell you.
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna tell you there's there's some really hard working
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: puns here for those that want them. And I'm not
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: gonna explain one of them, but that one right there.
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: I stand by it.
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: One hundred and one hundred percent, and I don't want
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: you to explain a single one. So Jerry is mostly
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: going to be a pun machine throughout this entire show.
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: So after you stone the yard, you got a nice
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: tidy set up. You want to set up a hot
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: simple you want to bring in a cabin of some
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: sort and equipped with drowns the safety equipment. You have
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: to have a base, you know what I mean?
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: Yeap, And like if you have a Pirelli calendar calendar,
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: here's the place for it.
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Any oil company also will start out with a calendar.
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: You gotta have a calendar in there. Probably one of
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: the most important things on site. And this is all
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: kind of gone off and there's no cracking this. You
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: gotta do it first. You gotta do it first. This
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: is like a makeup tutorial where right now we're just
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: setting up the washing. What this is the washing in
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: your face? Here is this is? This is the washing
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: of your face.
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: Okay, as best I understand these things.
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: So one of the most important things you got to
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: set up a toilet, take out a portal loop. You
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: gotta you can hire one there about forty quite a
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: week they clean it out, get up a portlo I'm
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: a right them a wrong there.
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: Money well spent. Now you'll be.
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: Very glad you got this and I would suggest hiring one,
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: although you'll never lose a penny on it. You gotta
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: get yourself a lock up normally a lorry container. You're
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: the ones with bell written up to side of them,
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: the steel containers that people you know, hippies or hipsters
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: are making coffee coffee places out of essential Now.
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, like you you know Tom, like you know, you
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: buy it and sell it for the same price. So
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: you're not gonna be fucking down money. No, not at all.
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: I mean, if you can find a guy, you're looking
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: for a good forty foot one. Here's the truth. For
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: the last they haven't really changed much price. You're looking
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: about anywhere between three three and a half thousand for one.
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: You'll never be sorry, You'll never and you'll sell it
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: for the exact same price.
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: So you know what, money in the bank money I wish.
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: I wish the bank gim me the insurance assurance of that,
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: or don't get a lock up box and have everybody
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: rob your shit.
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: Come on, literally, this is it's for your ship, you
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: know what I mean? Because there are gonna be tools
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: on site and whatnot, and you can't expect you know,
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: you're gonna have stuff you're gonna have materials like cement
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: and stuff like.
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: You can't have a robots. This is one of the
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: most essential things. It's just like your insurance pass policy.
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: Now you're gonna also may have made contact with the
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: waterboards or whatever county council the waterboards and they're gonna
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: bring a supply to the stopcock on the boundary.
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: Do you know what I mean?
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: They're gonna set you up with what's going to tapping
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: off the boundary because there's waterman's running under every road
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: in Ireland. Mo I say that, but there's places in
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: wicklow Jar that every porm is fortunate. You have to
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: have a well it's not part of the standard. We're not
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: going with the queer ones. But if you do have
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: questions after this, I'll try and answer them as best
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: I can. But for standard, you know there's a water
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: main onder the road, so of course you'll have your
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: plumber on board. He'll connect the water pipe essentially and
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: bring water into the site for you.
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: Do you know yeah? Or if you want, you can
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: dart down to the supermarket and by like one of
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: those palettes of water. Do you know you have options?
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: Here is what we're telling.
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: You you have options, but you know, I mean, okay,
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: that's kind of one is an easier option than others. Essentially,
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: what you're doing there is most likely the work of
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: a man who hasn't got plane of permission, and you're
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: just building away for the crack. You'll get no water
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: of electricity, and you may be told to pull it down,
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: but look at you'll more that later, more exactly exactly
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: now starting to make shapes. We're in the surveyor so
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: the lights of what I used to do. Essentially, we'll
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: go in and mark out where the building is going.
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: You know what I mean, you're clear back everything there
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: and those I mean I say that, you know you
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: can transfer the lines of profiles, the heights and all that,
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: but don't worry about that. Really, he's just coming into
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: a mark out where the site the house exactly is going,
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: because up next we will actually be doing some buildings,
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: so you'd also you won't be sorry you did it.
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: Now is the time to get a truckload of blocks.
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: In truckloads of brock blocks. Bricks gotta stacked nicely over
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: the size. They ain't gonna go off a rot anywhere.
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: Fucking man Lego.
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: Yes, that's the company we need to sell Lego selling
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: blocks and just call it man Lego, Man Lego. Yeah,
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: it absolutely is, and you won't be sorry you did,
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: because there'll be boundary walls. You'll never have to out blocks.
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: And this is like you know, this is where you
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: pick out Okay, I want block, No, I want red brick, No,
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: I want stone, no, I want whatever. Whatever you're gonna
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: build a fucking house with. Get it onside.
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, because this the likes of this won't it won't,
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: it won't go off. You're absolutely fine having it out
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: side fire last, but not at least every one of
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: these will. It's dream scenario stuff for when your contractors
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: do come in and they see this laid out in
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: front of him. Next and final, and the side prep
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: is setting up a mixer in the corner. Setting up
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: a mixer because not everything can be brought to the
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: site pre made. Set up a mixer in the corner
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: with a nice big twenty thirty ton of sand. You're
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: gonna need it, plastering, block work, lots of stuff are
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: gonna need it. Get it on board, you know what
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: I mean.
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: And after that you can start picking out the color
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: for the sitting room right down hard works on, isn't
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: it you know what?
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah you could, I suppose, but you may write it
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: down somewhere jar You may write it.
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: Like, this is what you've just done right here now, Thomas.
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: You've converted a field into a site.
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, we literally that's exactly what we've done.
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: So things are really happening now. People are gonna start
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: poking their heads in over your ditch now at this stage,
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: going right, you know now.
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: Myneymail in the house star exactly, yeah, oh lovely.
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: The nosey fella anyway would already known because you would
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: have probably looked up your planning notice written out of
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: the road. But I'd write it up all in Irish
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: as well to just just to annoy people.
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: Vexation just exactly.
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: Also, I forgot I got to put in here, but look,
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: no harm to get what's known as Harris fence. And
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: you'll see it at the side of you know, the
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: likes of festivals and stuff like that. For tall couple
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: of sheets of that wouldn't hurt just to the terror
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: hearers coming in for a nose in the evening time.
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: The wells near do Wells exactly Jerry exactly. Now, look,
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: there's going to be a few things that you're gonna
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: need here if this is absolute greenfield, because you don't
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: want to be caught cold with my seven Jerry have
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: talked about this loads. But you are going to need,
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: you know, a shovel. Make sure write your fucking name
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: on everything, because even if lads aren't bad minded, they
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: may go in the back of the van. Make sure
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: you have your name written on everything. So whether it's
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: a fucking shovel of vice gripts, Jerry, would you suggest
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: get in a small van, maybe a thousand euro van yourself.
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: For get getting like I say, get some vans as
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: we used to call them up there right on a
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: yoke for the field now you're talking and uh and
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: use it as a little mobile toolbox so to speak. Yeah,
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: and like you know, like, but do you need a van, Tom,
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: you need a pair of ice cripts on a shovel?
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: Yes, you're like almost everything I've named there, you can
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: pretty much get sorted with the vice cripts and you
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: are going to be up and down to the Horden
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: fucking builders providers when things are just you know short,
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: So you amazed to have a small van rather than
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: wrecking the family Yak, you know what I mean, all
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: over it, which I have done your I have read
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: the family Yak, in.
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: Fact, the wrecking one right now.
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: Fantastic, fantastic, because I'm actually trying to peel back the
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: layers of dust that are all over the inside of
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: my car at the moment. And Henry the hoover has
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: never looked so sick. I can tell you that much.
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: So I would suggest even look, get your hands you know. Also,
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: I haven't put it in here, but I would suggest
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: if you ever see him now you do won't come
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: up too often. But if you do, get your hands on,
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: you know, a small little forklift of some sort, whether
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: it be you know no jcbl and you know Loda
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: or even old JAZB stick to forks on it.
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: You always glad he's there, you know, you can say,
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: and you can sell it on the miniature and you.
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: Won't lose a bean. You won't lose a bean for
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: them things, same as that a thousand year event. You
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: won't be sorry, you'll be delighted. In fact, you'll probably
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: be converted.
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: Now. So Tom, Now, in the realms of makeup tutorials,
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: we've washed our face. Now let's move on to our foundation.
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: There we go, brilliant.
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: This is why I bring my bride in. He's a
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: creative genius. I just write this ship and McBride comes
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: in and just puts a little bit of gold. That's exactly, girls, exactly.
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: I'm not suggesting you know, whoever, whoever, but you know
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: we won't be heading into contouring land just yet.
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: I'm actually you know what later.
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: I know for a fact you watched maked up tutorial videos,
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: because I know you.
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: Have, and I've had I've never sat down to purposely
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: watch one of them. Tom No, not my wheelhouse. But
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: there was a lady beside me the train one morning
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: was watching one on her phone for a full hour,
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: and like you know, anytime I glance over at her phone.
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: I'm here for looking at people's phones when I'm on
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: the train, not for nosiness. Now, I won't be reading
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: your messages renting like that, but I'm very I'm trying
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: to keep aware of, Okay, how what young people are watching,
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: what what older people are So what I mean, I
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: didn't think you were. Yes, it is a bit of
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: nose I guess it is a bit of nosiness. But
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: like you know, you kind of have to keep a
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: breast of these things so that you can tap into
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: their mindsets as a comedian, Tom, is how I rationalize
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: it to them, to myself, although I was at it
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: long before I was a comedian. Uh, she watched this
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: fucking makeup tutorial video for a full hour and it
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: was just another lady putting her makeup on. And I
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: was like, Okay, I guess, but he Hey, Tom, here
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: are our listeners listening to us build a house, So
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: what the fuck can we say?
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: I know, I know, and it's probably going to take
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: longer thann hour, but look, I get it. It's maybe
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: as important as some people. So, like you said, foundations,
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: we've we washed our face and now we're into foundations
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: and foundations. Of course, like any undergarment, you know, they
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: come in various shapes and sizes and for many different purposes.
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: Like we're building a strip today, which is one of
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: the most common and cheapest ones to you. Of course,
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: you can have a pad, a raft, or a piled
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: you know, with four of the most common you'll find
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: an roland. There's about fifteen or sixteen mega ones out
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: there that you'd know if you're pulling in a regular house.
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: Any one of those four will absolutely do you for
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: the most part of Ireland realistically. You know, a strip
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: will actually do you.
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: For long term listeners. A strip foundation is what I
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: fell into when I was drunk.
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: There you go for eagle eared listeners exactly.
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: Jerry terrifyingly fell into a strip foundation out flame and
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: drunken manon one night. But you need a foundation. There's
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: no offense and boats. Once upon a time they'd throw
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: a couple of rocks down or just build straight off
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: the ground and just hope for the best. Yeah, you
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: need a foundation.
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: You need a foundation, no two ways about it. So
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: I got no dad for that, Tom, you need a foundation.
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: I'm not.
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: It's not a point that I want, I wish to argue.
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: So if you if you want to know more, I'm
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: not going to get into you know, the different types
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: and all the rest of it. They the pad and
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: the raft aren a million miles off. They're exactly what
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: they sound like, a big old fucking pile of concrete
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: laid out where you know it's unstable ground. The other
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: ones aren't far The more unstable ground piles are like
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: driving big fucking nails into the ground and then tacking
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: on to the top of it, essentially effect if you
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: know what I mean.
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: I do like I do like the sound of a
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: pile being driven down a half six in the morning.
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: I've gotten plenty of complaints from people giving out bunk bunk,
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: bunk bunk. But although though typically you'll be drilling these
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: ones which are very fun to watch me and done
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: anyway anyway. Today, like I said, we're digging a strip
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: foundation which agree about the width of the bucket and
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: the digger. Normally you'd dig it nine hundred wide for
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: the external walls and anything three to four hundred on
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: the internal walls. Normally you're going three times the way
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: that the foundation is the of the wall above it.
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: You know what I mean, They're thereabouts, it'll be there thereabouts.
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: So nobody's gonna put a measurement tape to her.
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: Oh you might you may actually have buildings, Yeah, yeah,
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: you might have building control, especially if you're if you're
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: a developer and you're building for people, you will have
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: possibly an engineer come out. And again I'm not getting
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: into the engineer stage payments. I'm assuming you got a
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: ball of money in your back pocket and you're building
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: this for cash, right, So let's assume nobody's coming out
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: can measure it. I could suggest it is direct. We're
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: digging channels directly under the walls of the first floor
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: the house. So again the buys are back groundworkers in
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: with their diggers to dig out the foundations.
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: Let's wake the neighbors, Tom.
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: Exactly, because these guys like to start early like that.
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: And when you have a whole beautiful strip dug out
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: of the shape of the whole house, this is the
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: time to position any reinforcement bars, mesh cages. You will
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: be putting in some sort of rebar. You just have
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: to it streightens the concrete. It's a like it's a
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: like the skill at the Nabdy and the body. I
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: don't know why I went Italian there, but they do
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: very good steal in Italy to be all fair, Yeah, and.
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: Any last he's out there. If you're going for a
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: debs and you want a nice faked tandem and just
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: just put in a bit of rebar some morning and
• 26:04
  Speaker 2: you'll be sorted. Those rusty metal tan.
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: Those buys are fucking They can be done for appropriate,
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: is all I'm saying, after a good day working working
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: with on steel, you know, Choyce, you just it just happens,
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: very well paid, just happens. It's it's it's rough work,
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: if you know. But you probably won't need pro steel
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: fixers in for this one. You know, this isn't this
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: isn't a bridge your building.
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: This is this isn't fucking one World Trade Center.
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: No exactly, this is just fired down a couple of bars,
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: time together, Grand big Grand, so any compressive material and
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: slip membranes they call it. Essentially, if you're if you're
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: trench start falling a bit, you can use you can
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: use things that are pretty much made out of the
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: same stuff that you know the politicians, you know, they're
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: they're posters are made out coreryboard, they call it. They
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: call it slip you know, membranes and all the rest
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: of it. It's just for keeping the fucking sides of
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: the trenches. Episode doesn't pour in on top of your concrete.
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: Any anytime you lose me, Tom, I'm just gonna say,
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: I agree, understood, understood, understood, understood, Tom, I agree with that.
• 27:01
  Speaker 2: I'm not Yeah, I'm not gonna stand in the way
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: of that.
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: If nobody can see Jerry here, but he's definitely got
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: a pen in his mouth, just tapping his seat. But
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: I see, yeah, I agree with that. So this is
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: the time, you know, to get in ducks and services
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: if you're bringing them in. You know, the likes of
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: waste water and stuff like that, you know, toilet stuff
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: you're laying you're laying in at this it's best to
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: have thinking you can going out after the fact, but
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: probably best to win out, don't you reckon?
• 27:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: No, if yeah, if you don't want to come like
• 27:29
  Speaker 2: you know, six weeks after this part has happened and said,
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: you know what, I think I might move the toilet
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: to that side of the house. You can do it.
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: You're you're going to be cursed up hill and down.
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: Dale now they would suggest, I mean, look foot scaffold,
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: you know it's it's it's kind of it's they say
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: it's necessary to be in all the blue Book. It'll
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: say you don't have to shutter any steps in the foundations.
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: You know, if you're coming, like say, you're on a
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: serious hill and you do want to dig square back
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: into you can only imagine the ground becomes quite high
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: at the back, so you need you may need what
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: they call foot scaffold.
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: Yes, I'd assume that's not happening here in my mind.
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: Is this this grind is just like, let's go with
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: a flat site. Let's go with a flat site, the
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: cheapest site to go on a flat site. So now
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: this is the time to pour your concrete. Footing is
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: normally about a foot deep.
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: They're not called footings because they're a foot deep, because
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: they are the foot of your house, and you'll just
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: tamp them level essentially.
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: Is the first bit of that's it's pour a sip
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: on the concrete tune the first wee bit of concrete
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: that we've had all day. Look at this actual concrete.
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: You'd be getting very excited at this point because now
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: you know you'll be running around. Yeah, now you're getting
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: a house. Now it's getting real now at this stage.
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: So you will you're poured it in all at the
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: one level. More regardless, you know normally you'll put it
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: in one level. There is of course difference and reasons
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: why you would put it into different levels. But we're
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: assuming we're on the flat here and you just want
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: it on the flat standard. You poured it and you
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: put it in all at the one level. Now up next,
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: now we're getting a house. You're gonna bring in bricklayers
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: to build the foundations. So they're gonna build using the
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: block work that you got in earlier. And they're delighted
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: to see they're not having totted up or fucking going
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: when's the blocks arriving. They're already sitting there, Jerry. And
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: they're gonna bring it much. They're gonna bring it up
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: to damp proof course.
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: Damn proof Course. I've got a I've got a great
• 29:18
  Speaker 2: story about damp proof Course. Oh yeah, you bet, you
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: sold a lot of it. Like who could Who could
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: fucking make such a statement of a great story about
• 29:25
  Speaker 2: damp proof course. It was not really a good I
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: want to hear. The damp proof course is like is
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: like a heavy plastic toilet roll and basically it stops
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: the damp from from moving up three your block for
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: levels and levels, and the short of it is DPC.
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: It's damp proof Course. I read an interview with Danny
• 29:40
  Speaker 2: Dyer one time and it was like for human traffic,
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: so it's like, fuck. Twenty years ago in Empire magazine,
• 29:46
  Speaker 2: Danny Joe and Danny Doyer. And this is one of
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: these pieces of information stuck with me for twenty years
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: that he said that like when he used to when
• 29:54
  Speaker 2: he was a young lad, he used to like do
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: graffiti around the place, and his his name, his street name,
• 30:01
  Speaker 2: wasn't Danny Dyer. It was the perfect crime, right, dah
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: da perfect crime. So his graffiti tag was DPC. So
• 30:14
  Speaker 2: Danny Dyer was running around London fucking spray painting DPC
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: on walls all over the place. And I'm like, well,
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: there you go, Danny Dyer. Don't proof of course the
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: perfect crime.
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: Any building material story that ties into you know, characters
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: from the standards. I'm more than happy to hear.
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: What we must get Danny Dyer to chi him in
• 30:32
  Speaker 2: here and see that. I fucking imagine that because it's
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: twenty years ago and I don't remember what I had
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: for breakfast, But there you go.
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: If somebody, if somebody, I swear to God, let's make
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: this a challenge for the listeners if they can find
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: that Danny Dyer. I'm thinking of one or two people
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: who would definitely be able to find that if you
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: can root that out for my seven Jerry and just
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: tag us in it on our socialsag us on a wall, DPC, DPC,
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: Jesus Christ, what's he gotta do with this? Hast time
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: we're bringing up the block work up out of the
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: ground off straight off that congrete up to what's known
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: as damproof core. So we're talking you're talking maybe two
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: foot of a nice little shaped footing to come up
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: to take your walls that will make up the rest
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: of your house. But in between all of that, because
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: now you're poking out of the trenches, you've got to
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: backfill those trenches. You can't just leave wide open. So
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: now you're gonna infill the trenches with hardcore using like
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: you know, whacker plate. You know your ones and there
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: did the plate. They're like a little lawnmore that doesn't
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: have anything but a plate underneath it. You know.
• 31:30
  Speaker 2: For anybody unfamiliar with the whacker plate, have you ever
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: seen the video for Satisfaction? There you there you go
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: the bit after the drop and then comes back in
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: and your ones there on a whacker plate. Move on, Tom, Yeah,
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: I was I completely lost because I was thinking about
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: that video right.
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: Alright, enough, so the Wacker plate, you're just below what
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: will be your poor floor level at this stage because
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: the black players have brought it up to just the right.
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: Now you're gonna lay over a nice big blanket, big
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: heavy plastic blanket. I would suggest always using I mean,
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: they don't always say it because it's not it's not
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: heavy in a lot of parts of the country. But
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: if you're in the southern part I eat cork and
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: places like that, get down a raid on barrier. It's
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: the tickest of take this stuff is war level tick,
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean?
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: And this is it's not yeah, and it's not just
• 32:17
  Speaker 2: a tick blanket. It's also for raid on gas to
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: knock come up in your eyes.
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, So it works is both radon barrier
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: to keep the radar down out of the house as well.
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: Now you will be putting in floor insallation at this
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: point as well. Just said, you know, so yeah, we
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: want that raidar out time. There's gonna be no fucking
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: X men in this house exactly. I don't know what
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: the shit is supposed to do to you, but apparently
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: it's bad. It's bad, so you want to be blanking
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: it off at this stage. So now there's more, you know,
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: services and stuff. Now you don't have to do it
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: at this point. There are services you can lay if
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: you're putting in let's say you're putting in on the
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: floor heating. You know, if it's being installed, you don't
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: have to worry about this. But if you're not, if
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: you're just got that on the floor heat and I
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: don't need to know about it.
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: Then fine.
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: Now, yeah, put in your pipes and your gas where
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: the I ears coming up, your sinks and whatnot. Get
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: him in now would be the time on top of
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: that plastic. Get him in now.
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: But we'll assume.
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: We'll assume you're going from the floor heating because it's
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: it's gotten a lot cheaper these days and almost everybody
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: is putting it in. So yeah, yeah, know, so we've
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: got our nice blanket down, we've got a foot and
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: built time to bed in and lay dampproof brick. Course
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: Now this literally these bricks will go down on top
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: of the plastic, but the plastic will separate them from
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: the footing and this brick. So you've got maybe a
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: little three inch high, little little swimming pool all the
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: way around, you know, which will happen too. If you
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: know rains overnight you don't get the get the concrete
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: in and stuff, but this is essentially what you have. Now. Now,
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: now we're up out of the ground and we're fucking
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: we're getting very excited. Now we're into actually what's known
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: as building the structure.
• 33:50
  Speaker 2: Jare do you know what I'm gonna tell you, Tom,
• 33:52
  Speaker 2: I'm going to stop here. There's one question that always
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: like for I know, we've been at this for a
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: long long time, but every now and then, there's there's
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: always been questions that I've been afraid to ask. No, no, no, no.
• 34:03
  Speaker 2: I said, I'd say it to the biggest possible audience
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: I could get before I show off my stupidity. When
• 34:09
  Speaker 2: you lay down the DPC, that heavy plastic toilet roll
• 34:11
  Speaker 2: that I was talking about, and then you build your
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: next course of brick on top of that, what stops
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: that course of brick from just sliding off?
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: You know, it's it's a very very good question, because
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: it's something I wondered about. But when you do see
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: the downward pressure that comes on it, and that's why
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: you see it, it's actually got It's that particular DPC,
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: the toilet roll with the ones you're talking about, the
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: ones that come in or.
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: Even the bigger ones in there that I'm sure or
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: what ase these is?
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: You'll you'll you know the way have you looked at him?
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: It's not smooth plastic like a plastic bag.
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: It's gritted.
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: It's got little criss crosses on it.
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what binds it to the to the between
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: on the marchers.
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: What is there is there is that? Does that happen
• 34:52
  Speaker 2: on the first course of brick that you put on it?
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: Or is it that you have to get a couple
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: of courses of brick, but get a couple of courses
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: of brick up onto it for the way to be honest,
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: like the way like you know when you're starting to
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: some bridges cross, it doesn't there's no structural integrity on
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: the leg.
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: I'll tell you what you just you won't be doing
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: it later on that day, if you know what I mean,
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: give it a few days it once it goes off
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: once to those bricks, and the marker go off on
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: top of that to the plastic membrane that's separating that
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: from the Because you have no choice, water will travel
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: upwards and fucking downwards, So you've gotta break it somewhere
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: and it's got to break there because this is all
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: going to be subterranean. You're backfilling all of that soil.
• 35:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what I mean.
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: So you gotta do it, and trust me, it ain't
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: home fucking anywhere there because once you.
• 35:33
  Speaker 2: Get rid of trust me in there.
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: So all right, now we're up out of the ground
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: and most of the monkey stuff, mucky mucky stuff. You know,
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: you're not up to your knees and share. You know
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: it's well and truly finished more or less. You'll have
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: a bit to do later on down the line, but
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: you're all right now we're into getting building some wall.
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: So the same buy's a bitch of those foundations. Maybe
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: that's the only trick in the book, but because some
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: guys just love laying because if they're getting paid by black,
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: trust me, if that's all they want to do is
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: lay foundation. So you may be able to use the
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: same fellas you may not have. You might have got
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: another fellaws, but it's time to think about getting a
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: couple of our brickies. But before you get them, you will,
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: of course have poured your concrete floor over that membrane,
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: you know. So it's it comes up to the heights
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: that brick, just like if you're topping. Imagine your swim
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: pool has just come right up to the edge, or
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: you're making a cake.
• 36:23
  Speaker 2: Basically you bring it right. You're putting custers on the
• 36:27
  Speaker 2: top of a trifle.
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: Now you're talking, maybe you know the way you're see
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: in some pubs, old school pubs are using now scrape
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: you think to for some known reason to level off
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: the top of a pint. Yeah, yeah, that's what you're doing.
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: You're bringing your concrete to the top of that brick.
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: Course that's gone all the way around the house. It's circumference,
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: and it's it's on top of what will be your
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: walls as well, your internal walls as well. And you'll
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: use you'll let that go off, you'll tamper in, and
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: then you'll use a day or two later, you'll use
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: what's known as a power flow, which is essentially like
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: a big floor polish you'd see hotel unis, but it's
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: got blades what you've leaves on the bottom blades, but
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: they're like big specula blades and they put a lovely
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: smooth finish on the floor.
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: Did you ever see the ones that you sit on?
• 37:08
  Speaker 2: It was like it was like a two blade power
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: float and it was like, what do you call those
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: fucking swamp boats? In my ass? Did you ever see
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: them going? Yeah, this is a boy there like hovering
• 37:19
  Speaker 2: around on concrete. And I've only seen it done on
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: like a big, big shed. You wouldn't have one of
• 37:22
  Speaker 2: these in your house. This is if you're building like
• 37:24
  Speaker 2: a big, huge shed.
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, oh god, yeah yeah. We've done a couple
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: of industrial builds, all right, and we've done that.
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: Now again, you don't have to be doing this. I'm
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: just suggesting that if you have no interest in putting
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: it on the floor heat right now, all you'll be
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: doing is filling concrete. You're not overly overly worried about
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: to finish on this, because you will be putting in
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: another another screen what should they call in a while
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: a finished screen. Once you put in, you're on the
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: floor heat. Put just something to think about, just something
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: to think about it. So now stime to getting your bricklayers,
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: let them falking out, give them the drawns that were
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: in that office that you put in the earlier in
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: the in the week or earlier in the week. You'll
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: be shifting fairly quickly if it was a week only
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: a week ago, but as you put earlier in your
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: side prep show them on the drawings what's happening, you
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: know what I mean?
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: And if you if you want it and change tom
• 38:06
  Speaker 2: Now is the fucking time.
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: Oh, now is the time? Now is your time? I e.
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: A door shifted somewhere inside? You know, I mean they
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: don't building rigs don't really care, you know, or you're
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: planning internally what the heck you're going to do. So
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: if you do need a wall moved around, provided it
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: isn't structurally integral to what's happened upstairs, you'll be grand.
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: But everything can always be done after. But Jesus, lads
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: have a good thing about it at this time because
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: these lads horse into work. You they're one of the
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: few trades that don't tend to hang around, these lads,
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: so they're gonnaun So things like they're now going to
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: be making, you know, installing templates for future windows and
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: stuff like that, because you may have you know, just
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: boxing it out for lads and stuff. But again, you
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: don't have to worry too much about this. Once you've
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: made it clear to the bricklayers, you know where you
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: want your windows, the height you want your windows, that
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: they you know where you where they need to be.
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: They'll start it out for themselves. But it's just to
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: be aware that this needs to be talk about. And
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: as Jerry said, I couldn't say it if it's got
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: to be changed now. No, Now, this is one of
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: the pricest things on the site. So only we get
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: it in now and getting it getting it in and
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: getting gone because you're renting this. You are renting this,
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: your first lift of scaffold will go in. So this
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: will probably go up you know, eight to ten feet
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: your first lift will go in.
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: I mean, like at stid of this time, you could
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: just get like twelve foot builders to do it by you.
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: Why not? Why not fucking get the monstars in to
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: build your house?
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: Starts it's that space jam too or something, right, Okay.
• 39:36
  Speaker 2: I heard it was I heard it was fucking build
• 39:40
  Speaker 2: your house for you. Are you getting fucking pay a
• 39:43
  Speaker 2: man for scaffoldings you can have not done about this country? Yeah,
• 39:46
  Speaker 2: exactly exactly.
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: So they're gonna obviously continue with you know, the structural
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: brickwork and black work, including any chimneys.
• 39:52
  Speaker 2: Now they will you'll see the chimneys coming up if
• 39:54
  Speaker 2: you don't.
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: If you have a chimney to come up, and they
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: haven't brought it up at this stage because never I'm
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: not saying you've got a second guest. Lads work, But
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: don't get surprised wh they're going Hi, Where the where
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: the flu liners?
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: Where?
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: You know where these because they've got to bring a
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: whole chimney up together. Because chimney is a box essentially
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: with terra cotta pipe inside it, because that can take
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: the heat. Blocks can't really take the heat, you know
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: what I mean, they're gonna be instead of installing things
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: like lintels and fireplaced lintels, and you don't really have
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: to worry about that. But as this as the you know,
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: the project manager, they'll have to be on site. These
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: boys won't bring them with them.
• 40:25
  Speaker 2: You won't. Can't turn wrong and go did you not
• 40:27
  Speaker 2: have a couple in the bout? No?
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: Be aware that lintles are essentially things that support over
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: and opening. So when you see a nice big open
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: you go, wow, how is that holding up there? There's
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: something really strong hidden in the block work above that
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: you know, it's like a big chunk of concrete typically
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: that has some twisted steel through it. Twisted steel and
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: sex appeal almost almost none of them. I just felt
• 40:52
  Speaker 1: this felt like saying that right now.
• 40:53
  Speaker 2: So also, tom Me, if you're installing flu liners here
• 40:56
  Speaker 2: for your chimney, you have to double check that they
• 40:58
  Speaker 2: are regulation Santa with.
• 41:01
  Speaker 1: Yes, yes, very well said regulations.
• 41:05
  Speaker 2: Bring that one in there.
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: Wow, look at you making a kid friendly around here.
• 41:09
  Speaker 3: Jeez, oh my good Jesus Christ.
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: Okay, all right, I just open a gremlin situation here.
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: All right, I get it, I get it, I get it.
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: No feeding after twelve, I get it. So device will
• 41:28
  Speaker 1: will be building in and you need to tell them
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: where because this you need, they won't do it until
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: less you tell things like meter boxes for gas and
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: or electricity. You're definitely going to need electricity. You know,
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: the one where your man comes around and checks your
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: your miss, I'm just coming around to check your that's
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: gonna be happen into the wall if.
• 41:45
  Speaker 2: I if I could stop you there, tom this is
• 41:47
  Speaker 2: where you do put in your meter boxes for gas
• 41:49
  Speaker 2: and electricity if you intend to pay for it. See
• 41:56
  Speaker 2: like by law, and I haven't looked into this, but
• 41:59
  Speaker 2: by law, if you don't put in a meter box.
• 42:01
  Speaker 2: Nobody can charge you for electricity or gas. So this
• 42:03
  Speaker 2: is a this is a decision you're making.
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: It is a decision you're making this, but it's almos
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: Tom and Jerry said, it's almost like back when I
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: talked about bringing the water in off the waterme in.
• 42:13
  Speaker 2: On the road. You've got options again.
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: I'm just making the assumption that you decided to go
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: down to you know, the planning route and all the
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: rest of it. You might just decide fuck it. You
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: might have even bought the field. You're just gonna be
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: a rogue house. This could be a rogue house, which
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: I can tell you I can think of three of
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: them not winning five miles where lat's just fucking built
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: a house and use flexus basically coming off their milk
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: and parallor up the field. Yeah, and did anybody say no,
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: they didn't, No, they didn't.
• 42:43
  Speaker 2: All right, let's assume that we are going to do
• 42:45
  Speaker 2: this the fucking right way, Tome. Let's assume it right.
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: So now you can bring in because you have these boxes,
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: you know they think built it. You will need electrician
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: at this stage because your next trades coming on out
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: site are gonna need power. You're gonna need power. It's
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: probably heading towards the it's Ireland. ESP will carry out
• 42:59
  Speaker 1: the work you know, at the boundary as well. They'll
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: break you got to get them on board. It's going
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: to cost you a few pounds. This is the first
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: big chunk of money that's going to go in one ball.
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: They'll just stand there and trust me, if they come
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: at twelve o'clock on a Friday, you ain't get the
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: full job done. I can promise you that they're they're
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: coming to you at twelve o'clock. They've probably got two
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: jobs done already that day. They're wrapping up at two o'clock,
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: and there's a lunch break to be had as well.
• 43:23
  Speaker 2: Just saying, just saying, just saying, keep an eye out
• 43:28
  Speaker 2: for that.
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: Look, all I'm saying is keep a couple of keep
• 43:31
  Speaker 1: a couple of Crisp fifties in your arse pocket because
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: they will be needed. They will be needed when it
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: comes to when it comes to situations like this. These
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: boys ain't contractors, they're government workers. So it does no
• 43:43
  Speaker 1: harm to have a couple of Crisp ones. I'm not
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: saying they're teamsters. I'm just saying it doesn't hurt to
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: just peel off a few fifties and just go any
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: chance you'll get that sort of before you go to
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: the legs. Look, it's all these are all points. These
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: don't get shocked and go. I can't but let these
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: are just now, this is not the fucking time for
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: perils to be clutched. Everybody, exactly, exactly. Put down your
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: handbag exactly. So now you're up. You want your second
• 44:10
  Speaker 1: lift of scaffolds. Don't have it all on site because
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: they'll fucking rent all of it to you all at
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: the same time. Now you bring them in good buys,
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: take me up another lift, please, your rent will go
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: up obviously. Yeah, you double the amount, but don't have
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: them all landed all there day one, do you get me?
• 44:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah? And also this where we say second lift of
• 44:28
  Speaker 2: scafton here, this could be your first lift of scaffleton
• 44:30
  Speaker 2: if you have the monsters in.
• 44:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, okay, now the monsters need to get up
• 44:34
  Speaker 1: like you know, but sixteen foot yeah exactly. You might
• 44:40
  Speaker 1: want to be thinking about if you're putting in floor beams,
• 44:43
  Speaker 1: you know, if the mass concrete floors you're putting in upstairs,
• 44:46
  Speaker 1: This is the time to start thinking about a crane.
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: So a lot of people are going for that nowady,
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: where the'rectually putting in concrete floors, which work absolutely fine,
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: Your block work will be a bit on the fatter side.
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: It has to take a lot more fucking weight. But
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: you ain't gonna have here a row in the sitting
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: room while you're upstairs trying to Yeah, they're great for that,
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: but more often than not, let's go with the fact
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: that you've got a carpenter on board and they're putting
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: in nine by twos or nine by threes. If you're
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: thinking about putting a pool table upstairs, this.
• 45:14
  Speaker 2: This, this, this is getting an exciting tom We've got electricians, plumbers,
• 45:17
  Speaker 2: and carpenters and layers.
• 45:20
  Speaker 1: I'll tell you now, a lot of shit going on here.
• 45:22
  Speaker 1: There is a buzz right now. There'll be a buzz
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: right now because now at this stage you're up to
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: for your first floor is built. You can actually walk
• 45:31
  Speaker 1: between in and out of your rooms downstairs. You can
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: start put now. I would I would also suggest maybe
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: get a can of spray spray paint. I start marketing
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: where you want sockets and buy fuck, do not, do
• 45:45
  Speaker 1: not skimp on sockets. Do not skimp on them.
• 45:49
  Speaker 2: You won't be ere.
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: Right, Lord Jesus Christ, you'll be bulling if you don't.
• 45:57
  Speaker 1: Your last thing you want is fucking triple A actors
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: sticking out because you want the toaster and the fucking
• 46:02
  Speaker 1: kettle and maybe you know, why would you do it yourself?
• 46:09
  Speaker 2: Exactly?
• 46:09
  Speaker 1: Lads won't be annoyed. They won't be annoyed. They'll be
• 46:12
  Speaker 1: delighted that you made life simple and going fine. That's
• 46:15
  Speaker 1: exactly where they want their sockets. That's and right it
• 46:17
  Speaker 1: rite it beside it, don't just make not assuming that
• 46:20
  Speaker 1: anybody's st but but just know that they don't know
• 46:22
  Speaker 1: what's going on inside your head. Yeah, so got the
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: house up to first floor, up to first floor, ground
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: floor is built. So, but it's not time to patch
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: yourself on the back just yet. Let's horse into it
• 46:34
  Speaker 1: and get her on up. Come on, pride, now, let's
• 46:36
  Speaker 1: finish her. Let's prove so. Let's get her up to
• 46:39
  Speaker 1: what the next move is, getting up to wallplate, which
• 46:42
  Speaker 1: again is a mortgage payment normally, but again I don't
• 46:45
  Speaker 1: want to talk about. I'm assuming you have a ball
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: of money left you by an end who made it
• 46:48
  Speaker 1: big in America. You have a ball of money. You're
• 46:51
  Speaker 1: building this thing out right out of your arms pocket.
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: But you're getting up to wallplate. And the wallplate is
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: exactly what it sounds like.
• 46:56
  Speaker 2: Am I right right there? It's it's I don't know
• 46:58
  Speaker 2: what else you'd call it. It's the well like you know. No,
• 47:00
  Speaker 2: if you're thinking about it being a decorative plate that
• 47:02
  Speaker 2: you bought all the back the world commemorating the death
• 47:05
  Speaker 2: of Princess Diana or something like that, it's in your
• 47:08
  Speaker 2: fucking hands house or something. It's not that. It's not that.
• 47:12
  Speaker 1: Oh Jesus Christ, I'm so entrenched in this ship I do.
• 47:16
  Speaker 2: That's what.
• 47:16
  Speaker 1: And I'm wow. I have no imagination A.
• 47:19
  Speaker 2: Wallplate I got A wall plan is nothing like it
• 47:22
  Speaker 2: sounds like. No, I mean, for this purpose of wallplate
• 47:26
  Speaker 2: is like a big lump of timber. Yeah, exactly exactly.
• 47:28
  Speaker 1: It's normally like a five by three or weird six
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: by four. It's a weird one, depending on the thickness
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: of your wall. Essentially, your wall would be gotten up
• 47:37
  Speaker 1: to the top, the finished height, the top above the
• 47:39
  Speaker 1: upstairs windows, finished height capped off with another block. But
• 47:43
  Speaker 1: you can't build timber fucking roof off of play. So
• 47:46
  Speaker 1: you gotta fucking nail down Basically, you gotta nail down
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: a collar all the way around of this tim timber
• 47:52
  Speaker 1: that's known as wallplate. But it's it's it's like a
• 47:54
  Speaker 1: poignant part in the play. It's like the second act,
• 47:57
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean. It's it's it's a turning
• 47:58
  Speaker 1: point where you're like, we have reached wall place, and
• 48:02
  Speaker 1: so pace you can take.
• 48:03
  Speaker 2: You can build roof timbers off up to wall place.
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: So of course we're gonna horse on with the structure
• 48:09
  Speaker 1: to build black layers are still on site, still horse.
• 48:11
  Speaker 2: On the way up, and it's just going up and up.
• 48:18
  Speaker 1: Insist on that music playing continuously as lads the build ransom.
• 48:24
  Speaker 1: So now you want your now ordering your third and
• 48:28
  Speaker 1: then maybe a couple of days later your fourth.
• 48:30
  Speaker 2: Lift.
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: They call them lifts because they go must they lift
• 48:33
  Speaker 1: them up, but they're eight foot by four foot by
• 48:36
  Speaker 1: eight foot fucking cubes essentially, and that's that's a lift.
• 48:40
  Speaker 2: So you want to gore scaveng them? Yeah, yeah, because
• 48:44
  Speaker 2: you fucking say ye, script money, you wouldn't pay it
• 48:46
  Speaker 2: for the fucking monstars. You got the fucking Lollipop guild
• 48:49
  Speaker 2: in the building, got.
• 48:50
  Speaker 1: The doozers in from howmember just got by the way
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: to let you know. This is just to give you
• 48:58
  Speaker 1: a background on Black players will be rough. They will
• 49:01
  Speaker 1: be rough characters, but normally good crack plasters similar normally
• 49:06
  Speaker 1: thoughtful people, but because they are very proud of their
• 49:08
  Speaker 1: finished product and w yes. Carpenters can be wild, but
• 49:12
  Speaker 1: normally again pride in. But scavelers are different breeding humanity.
• 49:17
  Speaker 1: They're not even a different breed of They are angry, wiry.
• 49:23
  Speaker 1: They're like guys who didn't make it in the horse
• 49:26
  Speaker 1: riding world but are still strong ass fucking the mountain
• 49:30
  Speaker 1: from Game of Thrones, but look more like Peter Dinklage,
• 49:33
  Speaker 1: if you know what I mean. Like, they're just these
• 49:35
  Speaker 1: hard and may or may not. I'm not saying they
• 49:40
  Speaker 1: all do, but I've met a lot who are partial
• 49:43
  Speaker 1: to some amphetamines. I'll tell you a Storyger I worked
• 49:47
  Speaker 1: on a seld break briefly in Dublin before and I
• 49:51
  Speaker 1: landed on It was a Friday. I was heading back
• 49:52
  Speaker 1: down home later on that day, so I gets in early.
• 49:56
  Speaker 1: I get in a half six sites locked fine, I
• 49:59
  Speaker 1: opened up the site as I hit in, you should
• 50:02
  Speaker 1: hear a couple of people rustling around with diggers and
• 50:05
  Speaker 1: stuff like that, put greasing diggers and stuff and just
• 50:08
  Speaker 1: getting their shit together and kicking off for seven o'clock,
• 50:10
  Speaker 1: not a sinner half seven past eight, the whole thing.
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: I'm like, where the fuck is everybody outside the gate?
• 50:15
  Speaker 1: I didn't realize that the scavelers have pulled their truck
• 50:18
  Speaker 1: across the gate. They blocked the entire site until all
• 50:23
  Speaker 1: the other trades on side paid them their coke bill.
• 50:26
  Speaker 2: They hadn't.
• 50:29
  Speaker 1: Again, I'm not paying everybody with the one brush. I'm
• 50:31
  Speaker 1: just saying. They tend to be a different and a
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: hardier breed of human.
• 50:36
  Speaker 2: They just come in.
• 50:36
  Speaker 1: They want to get that scaffled up, Get the fuck off.
• 50:39
  Speaker 1: Just power through, power through some of the topics.
• 50:42
  Speaker 2: Of your bag, or you're not getting in. Yeah, literally,
• 50:45
  Speaker 2: settle it. Settle it.
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: You're not getting that on this job unless you settle it.
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: And they did. They people found the money to people found.
• 50:55
  Speaker 2: Let's let's assume that we've settled our coke bill with
• 50:58
  Speaker 2: these particular scapules or some Yeah.
• 51:00
  Speaker 1: They and they're good, they're good, they're tough, they're good.
• 51:02
  Speaker 1: They got it up. So now you want you're going
• 51:05
  Speaker 1: to be calling the carpenters and you're going to order
• 51:07
  Speaker 1: them the timbers they want in for trustes.
• 51:10
  Speaker 2: Now, trustes.
• 51:11
  Speaker 1: They're the they're the anglyly They're the angle bit of
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: your roof. That's the the I don't know, the slopey
• 51:17
  Speaker 1: bit of the of your tournament. Do you know of
• 51:20
  Speaker 1: your tuble a room. They're the slope bit of the
• 51:22
  Speaker 1: tuble room.
• 51:23
  Speaker 2: It's not a rafter, but you can call it a rafter.
• 51:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, you exact Tom.
• 51:29
  Speaker 2: I'm going to tell you now, if it's a timber
• 51:31
  Speaker 2: and it's a maddic, it's a fucking rafter. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 51:34
  Speaker 2: yeah yeah.
• 51:34
  Speaker 1: Listen, this is we can get into pearlins and fucking
• 51:37
  Speaker 1: all sorts.
• 51:37
  Speaker 2: We're not we're not.
• 51:39
  Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, no, no, we're not because again,
• 51:42
  Speaker 1: you're not building it. I'm just saying you're project managing it.
• 51:45
  Speaker 1: So in all fairness, you have met all these people beforehand,
• 51:48
  Speaker 1: and your architect or you know, your carpenter will be
• 51:51
  Speaker 1: able to count up what you need a month beforehand.
• 51:54
  Speaker 1: If you ask them to come to sight and get
• 51:56
  Speaker 1: a price for the job, they'll say you're gonna need
• 51:58
  Speaker 1: forty two you know, six by threes or whatever at
• 52:00
  Speaker 1: this stage, and they'll have told you what to have
• 52:03
  Speaker 1: on site for them, so they're gonna build up as
• 52:04
  Speaker 1: you would in fucking mechano, Jerry, you you wouldn't start
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: in the middle, and hope you start at the two
• 52:09
  Speaker 1: ends of your trouble are on, and you build those first,
• 52:12
  Speaker 1: those two templates first, because they're gonna sit onto your
• 52:14
  Speaker 1: warplate and they need each other in the middle as
• 52:18
  Speaker 1: they normally would, as they want to get the two
• 52:21
  Speaker 1: of those right, they go back down onto the ground,
• 52:23
  Speaker 1: and those actors as templates, they're gonna fucking cut off
• 52:25
  Speaker 1: a rake them and let them at, let them matter.
• 52:28
  Speaker 1: Maybe a couple of additional lifts of scapler will be
• 52:30
  Speaker 1: needed to depend on how high up your fucking chimneys.
• 52:34
  Speaker 1: I know, I know, I know, tiny builders. I'm sorry,
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry we didn't get the man stars in Jesus right.
• 52:43
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 52:43
  Speaker 1: Here's the thing you'll often find trading back and forth
• 52:46
  Speaker 1: in the UK. You'll often find only the plumbers will
• 52:49
  Speaker 1: go at any form of lead. It's funny like but
• 52:52
  Speaker 1: here in Southern Island, the roofers ten it's it. It
• 52:56
  Speaker 1: varies very You'll get guys that aren't plumbers, but they
• 52:59
  Speaker 1: they take they're qualified as plumbers because they're really good
• 53:02
  Speaker 1: at soldering pipes and and but they purely work as
• 53:05
  Speaker 1: lead men and they do really good lead stuff. But
• 53:09
  Speaker 1: the lead flashing flashing basically has to happen to go
• 53:12
  Speaker 1: down into any kind of trays and stuff. Just know,
• 53:15
  Speaker 1: I'm not going to teach you what they are. Just
• 53:16
  Speaker 1: know that they're they're needed essentially any where any blockwork
• 53:20
  Speaker 1: meets slate. You can't just have them banging up against
• 53:22
  Speaker 1: each other and pour a little of silicon into it
• 53:24
  Speaker 1: and hope that they's very water very poetic.
• 53:27
  Speaker 2: Block meets slate. Yeah, isn't it? Isn't it?
• 53:31
  Speaker 1: I mean, essentially they're the same product, just in two
• 53:33
  Speaker 1: different states.
• 53:34
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 53:35
  Speaker 1: But look, I'm getting Shakespeare inn right there, or flashing
• 53:41
  Speaker 1: our skirts at everybody exactly exactly, so you're flashing skirts,
• 53:45
  Speaker 1: you know, like the likes event pipes and stuff like
• 53:47
  Speaker 1: that for toilets, because every toilet needs an actual event
• 53:49
  Speaker 1: because shink it will back up and committed the house.
• 53:52
  Speaker 1: So things like that would be coming up through. So
• 53:53
  Speaker 1: when you're seeing things like fucking pipes. Stick it up,
• 53:55
  Speaker 1: you go what where? I know that you will be
• 53:59
  Speaker 1: buying some four inch know that you'll be buying some
• 54:02
  Speaker 1: four inch weven And this is the final bit.
• 54:04
  Speaker 2: This is where you say goodbye and probably buy a
• 54:06
  Speaker 2: beer on a Friday.
• 54:07
  Speaker 1: For the brick layers, this is them, you know, basical,
• 54:09
  Speaker 1: they're topping out and they're finishing the last bit of
• 54:11
  Speaker 1: chimney pot. You may wind want a nice Corbeld design
• 54:14
  Speaker 1: around the edge. The boys can do a very basic
• 54:17
  Speaker 1: one for you, but I would suggest, you know, if
• 54:18
  Speaker 1: you're going doing it, finish off for a nice well
• 54:21
  Speaker 1: you you'd go for a nice corbet finish around the
• 54:23
  Speaker 1: top of your chimney, would you jar?
• 54:24
  Speaker 3: Oh?
• 54:25
  Speaker 2: Naturally no?
• 54:26
  Speaker 1: And what about a nice the last pot? Would you
• 54:28
  Speaker 1: go Fred Dibner style into a fucking lovely nice last part?
• 54:32
  Speaker 1: I'd like one of those Hage pots, would you other
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: than you? Are you contemporary?
• 54:40
  Speaker 2: No? It's just like pure ostentatiousness.
• 54:41
  Speaker 1: I want age pot exactly, just so the crows can
• 54:44
  Speaker 1: sit on it but not really block it.
• 54:46
  Speaker 2: I get you, yeah exactly, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I
• 54:49
  Speaker 2: like it. I like it. I know you know what
• 54:52
  Speaker 2: I'll tell you what tom at the time, I'll know exactly.
• 54:55
  Speaker 1: You can't play this by ear, but have your fucking
• 54:57
  Speaker 1: ear played before the boys are looking for it, you
• 55:00
  Speaker 1: know what I mean? As they will charge you for
• 55:01
  Speaker 1: standing around picking their whole, I'll know that they will,
• 55:06
  Speaker 1: they will charge you.
• 55:07
  Speaker 2: I gotta I gotta tell you. I know that we've
• 55:09
  Speaker 2: got all the block work done, and now that we've
• 55:11
  Speaker 2: got the timber up on the roof, and now that
• 55:14
  Speaker 2: we've got like the odd waving pipe sticking up here
• 55:16
  Speaker 2: or there, this is the perfect place to run out
• 55:19
  Speaker 2: of money and leave the house looking like this for
• 55:22
  Speaker 2: six or eight years. Yes, for anybody to drive by,
• 55:25
  Speaker 2: you go like, we're going to finish that fucking.
• 55:27
  Speaker 1: House now, and you will see it around the country.
• 55:30
  Speaker 1: This is exactly the point where people.
• 55:32
  Speaker 2: This is exactly and there'll be maybe one run of
• 55:35
  Speaker 2: scaffold around it. Perhaps this is where you just pull up.
• 55:38
  Speaker 2: This is where you get, you know, marital problems with
• 55:40
  Speaker 2: the missus and get a divorce, and the house just
• 55:42
  Speaker 2: doesn't go any further, and you emigrate to someone and
• 55:45
  Speaker 2: that housefolking sits there for twenty years.
• 55:47
  Speaker 1: And the country is riddled with them because exactly that
• 55:50
  Speaker 1: and like this is a perfect example that what Jerry
• 55:53
  Speaker 1: just said is just as important as all the facts
• 55:55
  Speaker 1: I'm actually given you here. Know that you better have
• 55:58
  Speaker 1: more money left over this because you've got a fair
• 56:01
  Speaker 1: bit more spend I can tell you. But it's normally
• 56:04
  Speaker 1: the timber that catches people jar. They've blown their award
• 56:06
  Speaker 1: because they're still eating out every night of the week
• 56:08
  Speaker 1: and they're going, there's just a ball of it there, lads,
• 56:10
  Speaker 1: there's a fucking ball of it there. Because you'll get.
• 56:13
  Speaker 2: You, I'm gonna get I'm going to get coffees for
• 56:15
  Speaker 2: the for the builders running way to them.
• 56:17
  Speaker 1: Yeh know this, You're only about a third of the
• 56:20
  Speaker 1: way their money wise, Yeah, trust me, trust me, there's
• 56:23
  Speaker 1: a lot more to be dug out of your pocket,
• 56:25
  Speaker 1: so be prudent.
• 56:25
  Speaker 2: But at the same time they'll have done you a favor.
• 56:28
  Speaker 1: Look after the lads give them, but a couple of beers,
• 56:31
  Speaker 1: not saying you don't, a couple of aldi ones will
• 56:33
  Speaker 1: do absolutely fine on a Friday, just saying so.
• 56:36
  Speaker 2: As the as the as the as the wall plate
• 56:38
  Speaker 2: said to the carpenter.
• 56:40
  Speaker 1: Trust me, I'm laughing for all the fucking wrong reasons.
• 56:48
  Speaker 1: I love that every bit of that works. Every day
• 56:51
  Speaker 1: of that bit of that work. That's not a not
• 56:53
  Speaker 1: a hint of that on that that's perfect.
• 56:55
  Speaker 2: Hell, anyone that choke you's got to go and tell
• 56:57
  Speaker 2: herself a minute now.
• 57:01
  Speaker 1: Now we are fucking This is what makes a house
• 57:04
  Speaker 1: a house, right, This is what makes a house look
• 57:06
  Speaker 1: a house, Jerry said, this is where you can fall.
• 57:08
  Speaker 1: You're getting your pants pulled down here now if you're
• 57:10
  Speaker 1: not careful, still have plenty of money to go here
• 57:13
  Speaker 1: at this point, or don't be out of it at all?
• 57:15
  Speaker 2: Do you know what I mean?
• 57:17
  Speaker 1: Don't be buying when I said by a van by
• 57:18
  Speaker 1: a thousand, you're a van. Don't be getting yourself no
• 57:20
  Speaker 1: forward ranger because you want to be fucking king dick.
• 57:23
  Speaker 1: Heaps of shit will do you all the way up
• 57:25
  Speaker 1: until now. Pure heaps of shit will get you by
• 57:28
  Speaker 1: all the way now, busted fucking everything will do you
• 57:30
  Speaker 1: up until now.
• 57:31
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean?
• 57:32
  Speaker 1: You would have been fine. You would have been fine.
• 57:34
  Speaker 1: You don't need not in flesh. You ain't showing off
• 57:36
  Speaker 1: at this stage. So we've gotta put a hat on
• 57:39
  Speaker 1: our chair. We made no bones about it. We definitely
• 57:41
  Speaker 1: are doing it now. There's a bunch of you know, modernistic,
• 57:46
  Speaker 1: you know, contemporary industrial style, and you may be looking
• 57:49
  Speaker 1: for steel fixers at this point rather presual carpenters. If
• 57:53
  Speaker 1: you're putting in you know one of those. Sure, Kevin
• 57:55
  Speaker 1: McLeod looking with zinc and no here dg and Son.
• 58:00
  Speaker 1: We're fans of the old school timber and slate pitch roof,
• 58:03
  Speaker 1: simple as that. You know, my god, that's what you're
• 58:06
  Speaker 1: going to get.
• 58:07
  Speaker 2: That's what that was. That's what I was raared under,
• 58:09
  Speaker 2: Tom exactly.
• 58:11
  Speaker 1: You feel comfortable under that exact thing. So let's get
• 58:14
  Speaker 1: building a roof. No carpenter's gonna start shlinging roof trusses
• 58:18
  Speaker 1: and trust are going to be fixed to the wall
• 58:19
  Speaker 1: place as we talked.
• 58:20
  Speaker 2: As a callback to my excellent joke there I know,
• 58:23
  Speaker 2: I know, and delighted and delighted.
• 58:27
  Speaker 1: So valleys, So the valleys will happen. This isn't you
• 58:30
  Speaker 1: know a region in Wales. These are actual valleys. You
• 58:33
  Speaker 1: know that you'll see them. You'll see them where parts
• 58:35
  Speaker 1: of roofs. Because we're assuming that we have okay, we
• 58:38
  Speaker 1: do have the big Tobler run. We may have a
• 58:40
  Speaker 1: couple of little dormer windows poking out and where those
• 58:42
  Speaker 1: normal windows poke out, you know, just at the point
• 58:45
  Speaker 1: where they poked out in the main one that's called
• 58:47
  Speaker 1: the valley there, that's called it's like your little inside
• 58:49
  Speaker 1: your elbow. Do you know what I mean inside your elbow,
• 58:52
  Speaker 1: being a valley where your face, your forearm meets your
• 58:54
  Speaker 1: best hit.
• 58:55
  Speaker 2: Yes, that's if you remember your technical graphics Tom, someone
• 58:59
  Speaker 2: along the line here need to have worked out their
• 59:01
  Speaker 2: dihedral angles for this one now, exactly exactly I was
• 59:07
  Speaker 2: listening listened to it is.
• 59:10
  Speaker 1: So like I said, if you do have layboards, they're
• 59:12
  Speaker 1: normally like one inch thick or even less, you know
• 59:15
  Speaker 1: what I mean. And they'll be laid down at this
• 59:17
  Speaker 1: normally nine inches wide, and they'll be late because they
• 59:20
  Speaker 1: will form, they'll form the valley that you'll cover with
• 59:22
  Speaker 1: lead afterwards. But don't worry too much about it. Just
• 59:25
  Speaker 1: know that you will have to be buying these things.
• 59:27
  Speaker 1: So this is where the dormers now will be built.
• 59:29
  Speaker 1: They'll be built sticking out of it. So it's just
• 59:32
  Speaker 1: it's just as well to get them built now rather
• 59:33
  Speaker 1: than going, what could I love a couple of dormers there?
• 59:36
  Speaker 2: Now?
• 59:36
  Speaker 1: The world of them are on the backs of houses
• 59:38
  Speaker 1: here in Ireland because the world of people built you know,
• 59:41
  Speaker 1: convert to atic slash dormer bungalows under the great tense
• 59:45
  Speaker 1: that were just built in bungalows. But they're two story
• 59:47
  Speaker 1: fucking houses. They just have a bunch of dormers on
• 59:49
  Speaker 1: the back. Yes, do you know what I mean?
• 59:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah? I hear a dormer in the east Kandal. Oh
• 59:57
  Speaker 2: my fuck. Well, I am really glad you managed to
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 2: rob are in. Lord, I've got more to go. I
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 2: got more to go down. So if we're on the
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 2: roof chair, what are we where are we makeup?
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 1: Wise? There?
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 2: Now this would be your eyebrows surely okay, yes, that's
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 2: the highest part of your face. Right and do you
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 2: know what is the do you know what is the
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 2: house equivalent of eyebrows? Tom Fish and Safa? Now, now
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 2: are we doing the hair? Are we doing the hair?
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 2: Right now?
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 1: We're getting their hair done. We're getting their hair did.
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 1: We'll see, we'll say okay, all right, okay, well look
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 1: I mean at this point you will be sticking on
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 1: facians off of what facians offa essentially are everybody knows
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 1: the facience off are is the little box section that
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 1: basically finishes off the end of your roof you'll see
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 1: the gutters hanging on it, and then turns it back.
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 1: It heads back into the wall to make it nice,
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 1: because you could leave that wide open if you look
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 1: up now, some old Georgian places you'll see and they
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 1: do leave it slight because then they'd like to put
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 1: a nice little trim on the end of the trusses
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 1: to make it look snazzy. We're not fucking doing that
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 1: or nice box section back into the wall clean at
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 1: this point. So of course it will be you know,
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 1: it will be a carpenter will do that for you,
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 1: and there will be ventilation grills or strips which are
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 1: pre made plastic ones, which again you'll probably have to
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 1: have bought yourself, or unless you're bringing in a fish
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 1: and gut hering crowd who are gonna do it, probably
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 1: in PVC, they'll do it for you. But again, if
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 1: you're getting it done a nice timber, you'll have to
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 1: be heading off and getting them to also because.
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 2: It's probably this is probably this is probably the first
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 2: nice thing you bought for the house. Yeah, this is
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 2: the first cosmetic consideration you've had to have for the house.
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 2: Other than what break your building?
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 1: I suppose No, well, it's just a very valid point
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 1: you might be only we're gonna go with standard plaster
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 1: on the outside anyway. I mean, it's this you may
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 1: have done. You may have got a nice brick on
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 1: the outside. Let's say that this is that's a really
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 1: good point. That's that's your consumer face. Let's let's say
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 1: you went with a hardwood, like a roker or something
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 1: like that, especially if you may have to go with
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 1: some horror, some hard ship if you're near the sea.
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 1: But you can God for a nice touch, nice little
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 1: nice little faces off of yourself. Let's leave off the
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 1: fact that you you might think about putting PBC up there.
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 1: Let's not do that. Butn't it Because it's wide open
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 1: and you're looking at the skeletons of a stegosaurus here,
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 1: and because it's roof trustes piling in over and top
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 1: of each other each other in the middle, the ribs
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 1: basically at the top. Now is the time to get
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 1: in before you finish it off totally. Now is the
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 1: time to put in any roof tanks, you know, water tanks.
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 2: This would be what I do, Tom, I would fucking
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 2: I would have the whole thing done, and then someone
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 2: come with this eighty gallon tanks saying how are you
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 2: going to get that up there? And I'd be like, yeah,
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 2: I shove it through a hole. Can we just put
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 2: it on the ground floor and pump pump it? Fuck it.
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 1: This is the time to put in a tank into
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 1: what will be your attic. Essentially get it in.
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 1: I know you'll be thinking a fuck it, But as
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 1: Jar just alluded to before, I fuck it won't do
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 1: This is the timing. This is a very very specific thing,
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 1: even though it'll sit there idle for a long time.
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 1: Is a very specific thing that needs to going at
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 1: this stage. So now roofers the boys, possibly the guys
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 1: who are doing the trustes, but I would say most
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 1: likely the guys who are going to be doing your
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 1: slate will do Felton Battle. You'll see that they lay
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 1: a nice, big, fucking lovely blanket with writing on it,
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 1: which is breathable and waterproof on one side and breatheable
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 1: through the other. They'll lay it over your lovely trusts,
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 1: even though you probably want to show them off to
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 1: the world for a while more, given how much you
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 1: have fun and spent on the price these days. But
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 1: you gotta you gotta cover these, you gotta cover them
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 1: all the way around, fix them into position. You'll see
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 1: lads using a staple hammer, just tapping all the way around.
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 1: Then across that you'll see two by one inch batons
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 1: laid horizontal to your trustes all the way across, making
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 1: a lovely effect. So you can hang your slates on it. Essentially,
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 1: slates or tiles, whatever you've gone for, you can.
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 2: Do this part of the process.
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah, now this is really set it off now, so
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 1: of course all your value tiles and everything will be
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 1: don't worry too much about it. But depending on whatever
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 1: you're going to go for, I would always go with
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 1: lead myself, but fiberglasses become very popular.
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 2: I've laid.
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 1: I find fiberglass can actually fucking crack and stuff under
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 1: you know, severe condition weather conditions. So you know, I'm
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 1: just saying, even laid ain't what laid was. When you
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 1: start in the hard hardware business, it's it's gone wake,
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 1: it's gone wake.
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 2: Three extreme weather conditions weren't what they used to be either, Tom, Yeah, exactly.
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 1: So again like the roof for you know, things like
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 1: flashing and skirtings. You'll hear that being mentioned.
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 3: This is fure.
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 1: I'm just saying about loud right now there for the people,
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 1: so they don't go looking what yeah, and.
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 2: They see the skirting around the bottom of your walls.
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 1: Don't worry too much about it. It just so that
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 1: you can hear, you know, But you would want to
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 1: be thinking now. You could do this yourself, in all fairness,
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 1: if it was a Sunday and nobody you know, some
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 1: someday there's no mess on as they say, you'll be
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 1: painting or staining your softs and facies, you know what
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 1: I mean. And barges they call them. But just don't
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 1: worry again, don't worry about what a barge is. It's
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 1: kind of the end of the roof. But you'd want
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 1: to be thinking about it doing it now. You could
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 1: do it yourself. You took your time because you don't
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 1: want to be just bothering the decorator at this minute.
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 1: But if you're not getting your fucking hands dirty, and
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 1: you're standing back with the visivest and going, I'm getting
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 1: who I'm getting because I have plenty of money. Now
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 1: give the paintron decorator a ring. Tend to come in
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 1: and do your facial stuff. It's because we're putting down
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 1: that fucking scafolding.
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 2: We're getting rid of it. Fucking monstars are wrapping up
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 2: and fucking off home. But before we go on tom,
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 2: there's just one thing I want to point out here.
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 2: One there's like, if I could, if I could give
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 2: anybody one tip here now to be a pain in
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 2: the hole to builders and roofers and and whatnot. You
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 2: see all that lead that they're putting up around the
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 2: chimneys and all that kind of crackdown. Yeah, you want
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 2: to treat that with a stuff called pat nation oil.
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 2: You're right, yeah, which which is like lead is a thing, right,
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 2: you put it up, and that's all very well and good.
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 2: But if you don't treat it with this oil, and
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 2: it's like pour it onto a cloth and rub it
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 2: onto it and up it goes. If you don't do that,
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 2: and I'm sure people have seen this every now and
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 2: then in houses in the country, the lead will react
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 2: with rain and it will cause this white scoury runoff.
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 2: It's efforescence will come off your lead and dribble down
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 2: your roof and it will look like rowdan took a
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 2: big ship on your roof. Yes, it looks like I'm
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 2: massive bird ship on your roof. It's the same color
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 2: and texture and consistency of like a frigging huge bird ship. Tom,
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 2: you're so well done for.
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 1: I completely left patination oil out of it, and it's
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 1: it's come to a small little tin that you'd see,
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 1: you know, fucking any sort of rubbing oil for timber,
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 1: you'll see nothing but and now rag and a stick.
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 2: Even if you've forgotten, you're like, fuck you, you know
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 2: what I mean? It's worth doing.
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 1: As the scaveler is coming down, just get it fucking
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 1: on or you know, get it on or again if
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 1: you ain't torch in your hands asked it to pay
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 1: their decorator when he's doing the faces off. Here, here's
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 1: an out a brushhead. Would you fucking treat that for me?
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 2: Rub it on?
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 1: It gives it a lovely fucking gray finish anyway, and
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 1: it stays with its stage is a lovely, lovely finish.
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 1: Well said, you're well pointed out.
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 2: Thank you.
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 1: So's notice that you the builder had just coasted past it. Yeah, Jesus,
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 1: I know I've left I tell you what during this
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 1: list I've left that I didn't want to be here
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 1: to fuck for the next three weeks.
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 2: This would be an entire series.
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, if we could have done a sky the last
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 1: couple of hours before we dropped the scaffold, a major
• 1:07:09
  Speaker 1: money drain. I eat the scaffold because he'll want the
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 1: scaffold payment for every week, I guarantee you. So the
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 1: likes of that, you know that the guttering and stuff
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 1: like that, it may be, you know, like the plumbers
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 1: will have to do, whether it's guttering for vent pipes
• 1:07:22
  Speaker 1: and stuff like that, or it's going to be coming
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 1: down you made. You might get lucky somebody else. You
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 1: might get, you know, one of the boys to do
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 1: if you, Roofer might do if you, But more likely
• 1:07:31
  Speaker 1: the plumbers will have to do bring down the ship pipes. Basically,
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 1: my right, shit's getting real now you'll have made a
• 1:07:39
  Speaker 1: phone call and the decision this would have long been done.
• 1:07:41
  Speaker 1: Your window suppliers, they're going to fit the external parts
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 1: of the genre, you know what I mean, You've been framed. Yeah,
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 1: so essentially any stuff that can't be done from inside upstairs,
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 1: you know, so they're probably put in the frame of
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 1: it now. Plasters then will also they'll be rendering the out.
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 1: I don't what they're not. You know, they'll do the
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 1: oaps around the windows and stuff like that. Rest of
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 1: the down pipes will all be put in. Everything that
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 1: doesn't it can be done now quickly because the buys
• 1:08:11
  Speaker 1: are coming at two o'clock and you have a fucking
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 1: you're throwing a rocal rake them in at this So
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 1: like gullies upstands. They call them the pipes that will
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 1: come down off your gutters, taking rain water and stuff,
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 1: any external decoration, get fucking painted, get it on the wall,
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 1: and whatever you're gonna do, pebble dash, whatever you're doing,
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 1: get it on because now all of a sudden, down
• 1:08:29
  Speaker 1: comes the scaffold and then fellas will have a house
• 1:08:31
  Speaker 1: down in an hour and a half they will, and
• 1:08:34
  Speaker 1: then nice they'll just fuck it off, like I mean.
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 2: The racket.
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 1: How the death rate isn't higher, not from that's fallen
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 1: off stuff, but them fucking scaffold from a height out.
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 2: Just pegging stuff down, pegging.
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 1: It down, and they never do, they never seem to,
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 1: or if they do the first, you know, it's like sparted.
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 1: The first you just die from it. And the ones
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 1: we see are the ones that survived and tune with
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 1: each other.
• 1:08:59
  Speaker 2: Maybe, I don't know.
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 1: Now you're gonna start hearing terms like forcet fix. Now
• 1:09:02
  Speaker 1: you would have heard it a couple of times, and
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 1: you you know, a couple of times, and you go
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 1: just not as long. It's fine force fix when be
• 1:09:08
  Speaker 1: banded about a fair pit. At this point it's gavel
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 1: gone gone. House is starting to look like a house.
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 1: Now you can be cleaning up bits and pieces of yourself,
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 1: you know, like broken out blocks around.
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 2: The place, picking them up.
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 1: Don't be believing around. Plus, don't fuck them away either,
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 1: because you need to backfill spots with them. They make
• 1:09:21
  Speaker 1: great film for underneath foot paths and stuff. But like
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 1: I said, you'll hear the you know, it's essentially what
• 1:09:26
  Speaker 1: force fixes. It's unseen bit. Yes, that makes up the
• 1:09:31
  Speaker 1: nice bitch, you know what I mean.
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 2: Here, here's where you can make a bollocks yourself. You
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 2: hear people saying the force fix, and you hear your
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 2: oh yeah, a first fix. I must get one of those.
• 1:09:39
  Speaker 2: Oh my god. Yeah, oh I could use a couple
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 2: of first fixes somewhere around here. Yeah, that's yeah. If somebody,
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 2: if someone says that, you know they haven't listened to
• 1:09:47
  Speaker 2: this podcast. You know you can.
• 1:09:49
  Speaker 1: And you're a builder, you know you can throw the
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 1: saddle on cause you can send somebody up the hardware
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 1: looking for a force fix. It's a term. It's a term.
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 1: It's not an actual thing. It's a term band it
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 1: about for typically, when it comes to electrical plumbing and carpentry,
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 1: the first there's no first fix of blockwork, you fucking
• 1:10:08
  Speaker 1: block work. It's just blockwork for beginning tend Do you
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 1: know what I mean?
• 1:10:12
  Speaker 2: If if you were if you if if you were
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 2: doing the first fix of a Christmas cake, it would
• 1:10:17
  Speaker 2: be the cake bit.
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, before you throw on second fix, I eat the
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 1: lovely icing on the outside. Yeah, exactly, And that's a
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 1: perfect analogy. We don't have to go back into the
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 1: makeup bit. But this is where we're building in our contours.
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 2: Guys. You know what.
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 1: Bones forward, but it's not the finished product, you know
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 1: what I mean? Jesus, So, like I said, first fix,
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 1: it pertains to pertain do you hear me, Jesus yea, So,
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 1: like I said, electrical plumbing, it's time for forcet fix.
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 1: So carpenters, of course, will commence force fixed by fitting
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 1: door frames you know, building any stud work i e.
• 1:10:56
  Speaker 1: Normally upstairs, the stud work will happen if you haven't
• 1:10:59
  Speaker 1: gone for a contree floor where you can build concrete
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 1: blocks again upstairs, if you've gone for the standard timber
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 1: floor where you can't hear Memmy and Daddy having a
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 1: row downstairs. But it's a hell of a lot cheaper
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 1: and faster to get on. This is where stood stood.
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 1: And this isn't just a bunch of really good looking
• 1:11:14
  Speaker 1: young blokes standing together. This is actually timber framed upstairs
• 1:11:17
  Speaker 1: walls and whatnot. Boxing around things like vent pipes that
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 1: are coming down inside. You don't want to fucking see
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 1: them passing down the side of your bedroom. You want
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 1: to boxed off nicely, you know, things like fixing window boards.
• 1:11:27
  Speaker 1: You know this kind of thing.
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 2: And do you know what I like about this whole
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 2: phase time is we're inside the house now, Yes, so
• 1:11:33
  Speaker 2: there's no more of this bullshit of like, oh I
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 2: can't work because it's raining.
• 1:11:37
  Speaker 1: This is what you definitely want to be This to
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 1: be happening maybe fucking late September at the latest, you
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 1: know what I mean, at the at you want to
• 1:11:47
  Speaker 1: be in by autumn. This is you want to be
• 1:11:50
  Speaker 1: inside by autumn, you know, because now there's no more stoppages.
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 1: As Jerry said, no more stoppages.
• 1:11:54
  Speaker 2: Now there's no more you want.
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 1: You got a roof on, got windows, you had to
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 1: try so things like plaster. But you'll hear now noggins
• 1:12:03
  Speaker 1: when you mentioned a lot at this stage, And you
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 1: may giggle a small bit because it's a fun word
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 1: to say.
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 2: Noggs.
• 1:12:09
  Speaker 1: They're just essentially bits of frame. They're little bits of
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 1: frame that go horizontal to the vertical sticks that go
• 1:12:15
  Speaker 1: up the way. These are the sticks that go across
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 1: the way. It's so lads, can you know tack things
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 1: too in the way of one plaster boards wrap around.
• 1:12:22
  Speaker 1: But you'll hears a lot, So don't start giggling like
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 1: a school girl, you know what I mean.
• 1:12:26
  Speaker 2: Well, if you didn't laugh at flashing skirts, then you'll
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 2: be all right here.
• 1:12:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah you haven't mentioned headen after the shop to get
• 1:12:31
  Speaker 1: a first sticks, yeah yeah yeah. Now, Also don't let
• 1:12:35
  Speaker 1: them forget because they may not ask you. They'll plow
• 1:12:37
  Speaker 1: on if you haven't. If you it's all on you.
• 1:12:39
  Speaker 1: You see, you are the builder. Here, you are the
• 1:12:41
  Speaker 1: the book stops at you. This is the time to
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 1: fit in. Fix in your attic trap, just like you
• 1:12:47
  Speaker 1: go at a.
• 1:12:47
  Speaker 2: Bit early, is it?
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 1: It's a bit early? No, put in that doorframe slash
• 1:12:52
  Speaker 1: they call it. They've got an attic trap, but it's
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 1: the doorframe for your styrat as they will go up.
• 1:12:56
  Speaker 2: McBride. You love a good attic trap, Yeah, I do.
• 1:12:59
  Speaker 2: I don't know a star And there's an old school
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 2: attict trap that you have to do like a tricep
• 1:13:03
  Speaker 2: dips to get up into it. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 1:13:08
  Speaker 2: you know you have to hoosh yourself open into a
• 1:13:09
  Speaker 2: tippy too on the ladder. I wouldn't have it any
• 1:13:12
  Speaker 2: other way time. It's anatic trap. I've never heard it
• 1:13:14
  Speaker 2: referred to as antic trap. We always called it a
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 2: portal down our way portal.
• 1:13:17
  Speaker 1: We'll get you a portal like it's the fucking Richard
• 1:13:20
  Speaker 1: Dean Anderson yourself are going to head off into.
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, like you know they've opened the fucking box and
• 1:13:25
  Speaker 2: hell razor, you're going up to the attic now if
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 2: you have gone, and I would suggest why not? Why
• 1:13:34
  Speaker 2: not because iland can be cowed enough At the best time,
• 1:13:36
  Speaker 2: I would I'm not pushing it because I'm selling it.
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 2: But at the same time I would have gone for
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 2: underfloor heating, so I gave you the alternative. But this
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 2: is the point now where you can go and lay
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 2: your underfloor heating and membrane downstairs. You will be putting
• 1:13:48
  Speaker 2: in installation. This is the ground floor. It's been a
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 2: bit roughing, a bit dusty up until now. But now
• 1:13:52
  Speaker 2: you're getting into finishing off. You're inside downstairs, do you
• 1:13:55
  Speaker 2: know what I mean? Sitting room floor gonna look lovely,
• 1:13:57
  Speaker 2: So you'll be putting in now we'll get down just
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 2: in I just wrote put down another membrane, no harm,
• 1:14:03
  Speaker 2: just to keep another section between the insulation and the
• 1:14:05
  Speaker 2: actual concrete. So you will be taping off all these
• 1:14:07
  Speaker 2: joints and stuff like that, so that tape is quite expensive.
• 1:14:10
  Speaker 2: Just just know that that's coming. I'm a right jret.
• 1:14:13
  Speaker 2: Pretty you know you know you need.
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 1: It the exactly that's exactly they know you need it.
• 1:14:20
  Speaker 1: Now you'll get down your you have h which is
• 1:14:22
  Speaker 1: said you'll see it on all these programs, looped back
• 1:14:24
  Speaker 1: and forth, loop back and forth.
• 1:14:25
  Speaker 2: I fucking do you know? Nothing gives me more joy
• 1:14:29
  Speaker 2: than seeing people see under floor heating for the first time.
• 1:14:32
  Speaker 2: They didn't know what it was yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 2: because it's like, what is it? What is it? Is
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 2: like a big metal sheet underneath the thing? Is it
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 2: like wires? Is like, it's just fucking hot water.
• 1:14:42
  Speaker 1: Running through a pipe looped around the place. And there's
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 1: any amount of ways you can get this fed. You
• 1:14:47
  Speaker 1: can actually, you know, obviously through a back boiler. You
• 1:14:50
  Speaker 1: can get this, you know, from a heated from an
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 1: actual boiler.
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 2: My my sister.
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 1: Sorry, tell me led it through a bag boiler, making
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 1: it come back.
• 1:15:01
  Speaker 2: Back boilers are coming making a comeback? Of course, are
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 2: you kidding me?
• 1:15:05
  Speaker 1: No, because everybody realized that the whole, the whole, This
• 1:15:08
  Speaker 1: is a big conspiracy theory for you, but I'm telling
• 1:15:10
  Speaker 1: you it's one hundred percent right. The oil companies put them, Yeah,
• 1:15:15
  Speaker 1: they put them on blast and went nah back back, back,
• 1:15:18
  Speaker 1: back boilers. So why would you should lose half your
• 1:15:20
  Speaker 1: heat up the fucking chimney anyway?
• 1:15:22
  Speaker 2: Er these days?
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 1: Now, okay, some of the fucking stoves that they have
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 1: are pretty good and pretty efficient.
• 1:15:28
  Speaker 2: He's gone up the chimney. Why not transferred? People go,
• 1:15:31
  Speaker 2: oh no, the rum should the room be freezing?
• 1:15:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 1:15:33
  Speaker 2: But the entire house is.
• 1:15:35
  Speaker 1: Based off the back of the fucking fire coming up.
• 1:15:37
  Speaker 1: It's they're actually really really efficient nowadays, so the army.
• 1:15:40
  Speaker 2: I gotta tell you, Tom. I laughed at it like
• 1:15:43
  Speaker 2: because I hadn't heard of anybody putting in back boilers.
• 1:15:45
  Speaker 2: I was so swept for a back boiler.
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 1: We've got back boiler in the in the house, you know.
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 1: Don't get me wrong, I see the merit of a
• 1:15:51
  Speaker 1: back boiler. It's not like, you know, you'd have a
• 1:15:53
  Speaker 1: fire in your house and you'd be losing your heat
• 1:15:55
  Speaker 1: to the back boiler and you'd be freezing cold in
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 1: the room.
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 2: No, you still have an eighteen inch gaping fucking open fire,
• 1:16:01
  Speaker 2: tiny ass sitting room out of it. You're not going
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 2: to freeze the death. Okay. Sorry, you know what that
• 1:16:06
  Speaker 2: gives me?
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 1: Joy gives me because I hate a waste, you know,
• 1:16:11
  Speaker 1: as as you waste, and this.
• 1:16:14
  Speaker 2: Is a way to do it. My sister, I'm still
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 2: I'm still waiting to hear where you're going with those
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 2: off cuts of blocks that you had three paragraphs back.
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 1: Oh listen, ever, what's what's your phrase? Fucking never throw
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 1: it in away and not way tell you you'll be glad,
• 1:16:30
  Speaker 1: you always be, always some to be propped up, or
• 1:16:32
  Speaker 1: even just filling for the fucking footpath outside. Right, guarantee
• 1:16:35
  Speaker 1: you find a fucking good hola somewhere firm that will
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 1: be bad.
• 1:16:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, don't.
• 1:16:40
  Speaker 1: A sister mine is. They use sub soil fucking heat,
• 1:16:44
  Speaker 1: so it's all the time. Seventeen eighteen degrees.
• 1:16:46
  Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, yeah, another one, another.
• 1:16:48
  Speaker 1: One, yeah, another one, you know one anyway, we're not
• 1:16:50
  Speaker 1: getting into that assument. Make your own decision how you
• 1:16:53
  Speaker 1: went about this. But there's been the time when it
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 1: goes in and what not. So yeah, you'll be fixing
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 1: now the plumbing for the likes force fixed plumbing will
• 1:17:01
  Speaker 1: go in for things like rats, things like taps, things
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 1: like you know, now is the time you get all
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 1: clipped in, lovely and neat. They're like the four inch pipework.
• 1:17:11
  Speaker 1: They link up to the manifolds. They're called manifolds basically
• 1:17:14
  Speaker 1: the bends that came out of when the early doors.
• 1:17:16
  Speaker 1: You're building those foundations and footings early doors, when you're
• 1:17:19
  Speaker 1: putting them in, now's the time to start thinking about
• 1:17:22
  Speaker 1: putting another bit on them and bring them up out
• 1:17:24
  Speaker 1: of it. You see this all the time nowadays you
• 1:17:26
  Speaker 1: can pump in. Basically it's it's a real watery, real
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 1: watery type of concreature, pouring it in and just all
• 1:17:33
  Speaker 1: to be fucking lovely, just pouring new level about it
• 1:17:38
  Speaker 1: self leveling, self self leveling. Yeah, it needs almost nothing.
• 1:17:41
  Speaker 1: You can get one nowadays that has tiny little bits
• 1:17:43
  Speaker 1: of wire through, but typically it's only used for i'd
• 1:17:45
  Speaker 1: say nowadays, Jesus, we laid it twelve years ago for
• 1:17:49
  Speaker 1: commercial use. But it's it's yeah, yeah, it's its own
• 1:17:51
  Speaker 1: fucking it's got to actually steal through it. Yeah.
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 2: I worked in a place that that they put in
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 2: a massive warehouse and they put in a floor on
• 1:17:58
  Speaker 2: the pumped screen into with put it had like two
• 1:18:01
  Speaker 2: inch slivers of wire into it. Looks like looking bobby
• 1:18:04
  Speaker 2: pins for your hair.
• 1:18:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, amazing for strength, amazing.
• 1:18:08
  Speaker 2: Now this is a big day. Now know this also, if.
• 1:18:10
  Speaker 1: Your father ever worked in construction I knows anything or
• 1:18:13
  Speaker 1: anywhere it worked in any form of blue collar work.
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 1: Concrete days make middle aged men very very excitable, like
• 1:18:23
  Speaker 1: hot under the collar, frantic that they won't be able
• 1:18:26
  Speaker 1: to sleep the night before. Whatever's in concrete, the fumes
• 1:18:30
  Speaker 1: that comes off concrete, I mean, it is a chemical
• 1:18:33
  Speaker 1: reaction when it goes off. Older blokes go fucking mad
• 1:18:37
  Speaker 1: when it comes to Yeah, that's exactly fucking catnip for outlads,
• 1:18:46
  Speaker 1: that's exactly it. They'll go fucking bananas far right. So
• 1:18:51
  Speaker 1: just don't be surprised if your own outlad is wrecking
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 1: your biscuit.
• 1:18:55
  Speaker 2: On the day. They just fucking love concrete. They just
• 1:18:59
  Speaker 2: I want. I won't lie there. I'm partial to a
• 1:19:01
  Speaker 2: bit of it myself. Don't hate myself to him.
• 1:19:05
  Speaker 1: Your electrician now will be fixed fitting coming in and
• 1:19:07
  Speaker 1: fitting in things like where you sprayed on the wall,
• 1:19:09
  Speaker 1: where you marked where you wanted all your carcasses. They
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 1: call it carcasses for wiring and stuff you're chasing and
• 1:19:15
  Speaker 1: stuff on walls and stuff. Again, you hear chasing. It
• 1:19:17
  Speaker 1: ain't running asps and things. It's using a little fucking
• 1:19:20
  Speaker 1: anger grind there with two blades on it that cut out,
• 1:19:22
  Speaker 1: you know, a nice little slot out of the wall.
• 1:19:24
  Speaker 1: You'd often see him go, how the fuck somebody chasing
• 1:19:26
  Speaker 1: that out? So neat it's because he actually has saw that,
• 1:19:28
  Speaker 1: did it? Don't think it's that special. He'll use what's
• 1:19:31
  Speaker 1: called conduit. That'll be another thing. Conduit is exactly what
• 1:19:34
  Speaker 1: it sounds like it helps get from one point to another,
• 1:19:36
  Speaker 1: but nice and clean. They put the wires up through it.
• 1:19:39
  Speaker 1: Just know that he's gonna be putting in his first
• 1:19:41
  Speaker 1: fix at this stage. So make sure you have all
• 1:19:44
  Speaker 1: things like backplates on site. All these things, just back
• 1:19:48
  Speaker 1: plates are a little exactly what they sound like. Willox
• 1:19:51
  Speaker 1: steal little steel boxes that will take your sockets. Have
• 1:19:54
  Speaker 1: all your sockets marked out because also electricians will walk
• 1:19:57
  Speaker 1: onto site in the same way. If you imagine consultant
• 1:20:01
  Speaker 1: in a private hospital walks in, that's what That's what
• 1:20:04
  Speaker 1: electricians think of themselves. They're walking I knew, and electricians
• 1:20:08
  Speaker 1: used to wear like board shorts and flip flops.
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 2: I'm not sure.
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 1: And he would literally get out of like a brand
• 1:20:15
  Speaker 1: new fucking Mercedes like and just get out and he'd
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 1: have a sweet ass just a sweet two box in
• 1:20:20
  Speaker 1: the back and just whistling to himself. He'd rock in
• 1:20:23
  Speaker 1: about half nine, he'd be done by three, back into
• 1:20:27
  Speaker 1: the job again, you know.
• 1:20:28
  Speaker 2: So know that.
• 1:20:29
  Speaker 1: They they may come with a bit of a fucking
• 1:20:31
  Speaker 1: head in them. You know, they are the top guns
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 1: when it comes to They won't sweep up a thing.
• 1:20:37
  Speaker 1: They will not do it and dirty. They won't do
• 1:20:39
  Speaker 1: it and dirty. It's just it is what it is, folks,
• 1:20:43
  Speaker 1: So don't have any questions. Waiting don't happen because they,
• 1:20:46
  Speaker 1: like I said, they will charge you for picking the hole.
• 1:20:49
  Speaker 1: So make sure and have everything mark so external wiring
• 1:20:52
  Speaker 1: like lights beside the door and stuff like that, lights
• 1:20:54
  Speaker 1: over back doors, security lights. Have all that fucking mark
• 1:20:58
  Speaker 1: and tell them exactly where you want them to drill holes.
• 1:21:00
  Speaker 1: You know what I mean, Because it's a fucking dose.
• 1:21:03
  Speaker 1: It's a dose getting back on otherwise. So now all fresh,
• 1:21:06
  Speaker 1: lovely work has been going on in the actual building.
• 1:21:09
  Speaker 1: We've kind of neglected, you know, with the bust of
• 1:21:12
  Speaker 1: blocks outside. I'll be you know, the timing wasn't right
• 1:21:14
  Speaker 1: to do it, because that's in and out, in and out.
• 1:21:16

• 1:21:44
  Speaker 1: run somewhere. They got to be laid and laid well.

• 1:22:06
  Speaker 1: you're gonna need things like all those broken blocks for
• 1:22:08
  Speaker 1: propping up the pipe to get at the right fall

  Speaker 1: on show, or you know, it's just gonna be blocked
• 1:26:45
  Speaker 1: with the hearts and fireplaces need to be finished off.
• 1:26:48
  Speaker 1: You can't just have a big old fucking hole in
• 1:26:50
  Speaker 1: the wall because now you need to know the size
• 1:26:53
  Speaker 1: of what's actually going in there, because you may put
• 1:26:54
  Speaker 1: a stove in there and whatnot. I would bring him
• 1:26:56
  Speaker 1: in now at this point, to fucking tidius the situation.

  Speaker 2: You if you want your gas flow to be metered. Tom, again,

• 1:27:29
  Speaker 1: right now, Yes, you could, you absolutely could. It's not

  Speaker 1: have had the lads.
• 1:27:37
  Speaker 2: Do up one room.
• 1:27:38
  Speaker 1: You know, I wouldn't put the whole family in there

• 1:27:45
  Speaker 2: you're building this house with.
• 1:27:46
  Speaker 1: Yes, you absolutely could. You could, of course, because you
• 1:27:49
  Speaker 1: know what I mean, you're a freezer ball.
• 1:27:52
  Speaker 2: You know what.
• 1:27:53
  Speaker 1: It's a it's a cute, it's a good story. Maybe
• 1:27:56
  Speaker 1: you're fucking done with the place you're in.
• 1:27:58
  Speaker 2: Maybe put it.
• 1:27:59
  Speaker 1: You know what, You've got a roof, you got the
• 1:28:01
  Speaker 1: you know, you've got windows. You're doing okay at this point,
• 1:28:04
  Speaker 1: but we're closing in. We're closing in. Okay, let's do it. Well,
• 1:28:08
  Speaker 1: let's march to the finish. Here to outdoors is cooking ice?
• 1:28:11
  Speaker 2: Sit nice?
• 1:28:12
  Speaker 1: We still got the show going on inside, so let's
• 1:28:15
  Speaker 1: we're gonna head back in now.
• 1:28:16
  Speaker 2: We're still in.
• 1:28:17
  Speaker 1: First fixed phase technically first fixed phase, but we are
• 1:28:20
  Speaker 1: round the final corner of chelten.
• 1:28:21
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean, we are. You should feel
• 1:28:23
  Speaker 2: good about yourself at this stage.
• 1:28:24
  Speaker 1: You know now now you can definitely be heading and
• 1:28:29
  Speaker 1: picking you know, picking out nice bits.
• 1:28:31
  Speaker 2: I was just gonna say, Tom, I was just gonna say,
• 1:28:33
  Speaker 2: feel good about yourself, because things get exponentially cheaper from here.
• 1:28:36
  Speaker 1: On depending on tape, you know what I mean. You
• 1:28:42
  Speaker 1: may have you may have a bangle office and taste.
• 1:28:45
  Speaker 1: You may only have fucking Ikea buckets.
• 1:28:47
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean.
• 1:28:50
  Speaker 1: Okay, first fix, maybe horse fix and plastering. Now this
• 1:28:54
  Speaker 1: is your plasm they would you might have had the
• 1:28:55
  Speaker 1: plasterom buys outside doing the render. Possibly possibly maybe it
• 1:28:59
  Speaker 1: was a stone stone mason have finished the outside. It
• 1:29:01
  Speaker 1: was a brick layer, who knows. This might be your
• 1:29:02
  Speaker 1: first time meeting the plaster right. So the main staircase
• 1:29:06
  Speaker 1: will be fitted by a carpenter, you know, and protectively
• 1:29:08
  Speaker 1: covered a fuck me, covered, covered, covered, covered.
• 1:29:11
  Speaker 2: You'll see Lad's using roof and felt to.
• 1:29:13
  Speaker 1: Just bring it down along and just tack it on
• 1:29:14
  Speaker 1: nicely with the little staples will do fine, but covered,
• 1:29:17
  Speaker 1: do cover it because it'll fucking get the stride and
• 1:29:20
  Speaker 1: every and you'll never get it right. You'll just have
• 1:29:21
  Speaker 1: to carpet it afterwards, especially if you went for a
• 1:29:23
  Speaker 1: nice oak stairs.
• 1:29:25
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean. You're gonna be fair fucking.
• 1:29:27
  Speaker 1: Sickture if you're still plasters now are going to tack ceilings,
• 1:29:31
  Speaker 1: So tack literally as it sounds a little small and
• 1:29:33
  Speaker 1: flat nails, they're plasterboards, tacks pulled up. These boys are
• 1:29:37
  Speaker 1: ship out at this They're gonna hold ceiling. They won't
• 1:29:40
  Speaker 1: be insulated typically for going to the ceiling, but you'll
• 1:29:42
  Speaker 1: just get normal plaster boards put to the ceiling and
• 1:29:45
  Speaker 1: tacked on nicely. Because don't worry, they're gonna be If
• 1:29:48
  Speaker 1: I've got a little dense from the hammer, don't worry
• 1:29:50
  Speaker 1: about that.
• 1:29:50
  Speaker 2: That's all gonna be skin.
• 1:29:51
  Speaker 1: It's gonna be skim do it's not right now problem
• 1:29:53
  Speaker 1: all now typically these days, and I would always suggest this.
• 1:29:57
  Speaker 1: Once upon a time people just used to skim straight
• 1:29:59
  Speaker 1: onto plaster work the block work inside the house. But
• 1:30:02
  Speaker 1: you know what, why not get more insulation in at
• 1:30:04
  Speaker 1: this stage. Yeah, so it would be you know, they'll
• 1:30:06
  Speaker 1: be basically gonna stick insulated plaster boards to the inside
• 1:30:10
  Speaker 1: of the of.
• 1:30:12
  Speaker 2: Your water it puts it. Why not?
• 1:30:14
  Speaker 1: It makes them fucking warm all year round, It really does.
• 1:30:16
  Speaker 1: It really does. The coldness can block wall, especially in Ireland,
• 1:30:20
  Speaker 1: why not, so pretty much everybody will be out of
• 1:30:22
  Speaker 1: the way. Let the plasters go into fuck and do this.
• 1:30:25
  Speaker 1: They'll be doing class boarding everywhere you hear words like
• 1:30:28
  Speaker 1: strim and stuff like that being banded about. Just have
• 1:30:30
  Speaker 1: plenty of it on fucking site. Now your plasters should
• 1:30:33
  Speaker 1: do this. Your carpenters may do it for you. But
• 1:30:35
  Speaker 1: things like where windows meet fucking window boards, where there's
• 1:30:38
  Speaker 1: a possibility any water and get in. It may sound
• 1:30:40
  Speaker 1: like a cheapy thing to do. But mastic in a
• 1:30:43
  Speaker 1: pumped in gun. Oh yeah, it's gotta I'd say you've
• 1:30:46
  Speaker 1: sold enough fucking mastic down three years to fucking I'd
• 1:30:50
  Speaker 1: say you can back.
• 1:30:51
  Speaker 2: It's canal at the stage by the fucking box load.
• 1:30:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 1:30:55
  Speaker 1: But it's gotta be used around all windows indoors and
• 1:30:58
  Speaker 1: possibly you know, outdoors as well. No harm to put
• 1:31:01
  Speaker 1: a fucking beat if it they're just as a fail
• 1:31:03
  Speaker 1: saif because you know what, water getting through the first one,
• 1:31:06
  Speaker 1: you sure shit don't want to get in through the
• 1:31:07
  Speaker 1: second one. So it's just something to be aware of.
• 1:31:10
  Speaker 2: You won't be doing it.
• 1:31:12
  Speaker 1: Let somebody taste to do it. So now all insulation
• 1:31:15
  Speaker 1: to be installed, so you're get gonna do a stud
• 1:31:18
  Speaker 1: out now where walls are really taking shape, their ceilings
• 1:31:20
  Speaker 1: are taking shape. The house gets echoing. Now, the house
• 1:31:23
  Speaker 1: gets really echoing, and you're fuck, we have rooms now.
• 1:31:26
  Speaker 1: I can physically feel the walls where my bed is going.
• 1:31:29
  Speaker 2: Fuck.
• 1:31:29
  Speaker 1: I thought we were going to have in a fucking
• 1:31:31
  Speaker 1: super king size sweetheart. We're having a fucking normal sized
• 1:31:34
  Speaker 1: double I can tell you. Yeah.
• 1:31:35
  Speaker 2: You know, those insulated slabs really bit into the room there,
• 1:31:38
  Speaker 2: it really does.
• 1:31:39
  Speaker 1: It'll take two inches off the wall. It's more, it'll
• 1:31:41
  Speaker 1: take two and a half inches off the wall. It'll
• 1:31:43
  Speaker 1: be a two inch slab on the bag or sixty
• 1:31:45
  Speaker 1: five mil or there thereabouts. It'll take take off. You'll
• 1:31:48
  Speaker 1: be glad you did it. So things like why not
• 1:31:51
  Speaker 1: Jerry would definitely floor the attic at this stage. Oh,
• 1:31:53
  Speaker 1: I would roof an insulation.
• 1:31:55
  Speaker 2: You'll see.
• 1:31:56
  Speaker 1: I mean they call it fiberglass. It's not really the
• 1:31:58
  Speaker 1: same as the itchy stuff it used to be. You've
• 1:32:00
  Speaker 1: a couple of alternatives.
• 1:32:01
  Speaker 2: Fuck it.
• 1:32:01
  Speaker 1: You can use lambs woolf if you want it.
• 1:32:03
  Speaker 2: Right now. Yeah, we're we're building this house on the
• 1:32:07
  Speaker 2: side of Crokpatrick. So this is gonna be cold as fuck.
• 1:32:09
  Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah, So why not why not get
• 1:32:14
  Speaker 1: it nice and hot, get it all in there now.
• 1:32:16
  Speaker 1: Now is the time to be doing. Don't be hauling
• 1:32:17
  Speaker 1: that up there when the lads are gone painted. You
• 1:32:19
  Speaker 1: know what I mean, because that itchy ship. If you
• 1:32:21
  Speaker 1: are telling thinking of doing yourself, fucking dress appropriately. Put
• 1:32:24
  Speaker 1: on the taivex fucking condom suit.
• 1:32:26
  Speaker 2: You know the ones. You know the ones, the CSI sits.
• 1:32:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, so jure. Now now you can start rubbing
• 1:32:35
  Speaker 1: your hands together. Now you can start yourself, but you
• 1:32:38
  Speaker 1: still need a few pounds in the pocket because now
• 1:32:40
  Speaker 1: we're in to do magical. This is where this is
• 1:32:43
  Speaker 1: where it gets pretty, the illustrious second fixed stage. You start,
• 1:32:47
  Speaker 1: you know, taking delivery of that snazzy bat yousa on
• 1:32:49
  Speaker 1: the Kardashians. You know, like most first timers, or like
• 1:32:54
  Speaker 1: normal people, you just head the fucking ikea, the horsebox
• 1:32:58
  Speaker 1: that you buried off your father.
• 1:32:59
  Speaker 2: You know, you know what I mean. It's got.
• 1:33:02
  Speaker 1: You're gonna scroll through jun deal to see who wants
• 1:33:04
  Speaker 1: to give away. No shame in it. Done it myself
• 1:33:07
  Speaker 1: many as a time. Get a free fucking cabinet. It'll
• 1:33:09
  Speaker 1: get you through the first fucking year and you won't
• 1:33:12
  Speaker 1: hear much given out from fucking Jeremy right over there,
• 1:33:14
  Speaker 1: I would imagine.
• 1:33:14
  Speaker 2: And here's the thing time I want to say about
• 1:33:17
  Speaker 2: the second fix. You will literited to do it. There
• 1:33:19
  Speaker 2: a second goal. Here is where you can start to
• 1:33:22
  Speaker 2: be a pain in the hole. Yes, like, here's when
• 1:33:26
  Speaker 2: you can start being particular. You said earlier that we
• 1:33:29
  Speaker 2: were hammering up slabs. Don't mind if there's a dent
• 1:33:31
  Speaker 2: in it here and there, because that's first fix. A
• 1:33:34
  Speaker 2: second fix is gonna come along and cover that. Yeah,
• 1:33:38
  Speaker 2: you're gonna you're gonna plaster over it. You're not gonna
• 1:33:40
  Speaker 2: say it, so don't be there, but your plastic going like, oh,
• 1:33:41
  Speaker 2: I think you're made a mark on the slab there?
• 1:33:43
  Speaker 2: Will you put up a fresh one? No, that's not
• 1:33:45
  Speaker 2: the time. But now now when the second fix is
• 1:33:48
  Speaker 2: going on, and this is gonna be the nice stuff
• 1:33:50
  Speaker 2: that you are gonna have to look about, This is
• 1:33:52
  Speaker 2: when you can't say you you can start saying, ah,
• 1:33:56
  Speaker 2: yeah that's not right. Yeah one hundred and joint needs
• 1:34:00
  Speaker 2: to be tasty or there.
• 1:34:01
  Speaker 1: We can only assume that all the trades you've gotten
• 1:34:04
  Speaker 1: are absolutely fantastic. But at this point, at any fucking point,
• 1:34:07
  Speaker 1: if you can you can beat the pay in the
• 1:34:09
  Speaker 1: hole if you're paying the bills. But at the same time,
• 1:34:12
  Speaker 1: this is what you're going to end up seeing if
• 1:34:14
  Speaker 1: you have the box notion. I would have advised maybe
• 1:34:16
  Speaker 1: having a you know, an engineer on board too. He
• 1:34:18
  Speaker 1: won't run the fuck. He'll run it for you, but
• 1:34:21
  Speaker 1: or she'll run it for you, but they'll cost a
• 1:34:23
  Speaker 1: ball of money. It's your job, it's your your project manager.
• 1:34:26
  Speaker 2: But no harm.
• 1:34:27
  Speaker 1: But this is the stuff you will see for the
• 1:34:28
  Speaker 1: rest of your life that I swear to ship. As
• 1:34:30
  Speaker 1: Jerry just said, that fucking joint, that one fucking window
• 1:34:36
  Speaker 1: board sitting round like that shit will fuck eat away
• 1:34:39
  Speaker 1: at you because you project manage this thing. So yeah,
• 1:34:42
  Speaker 1: you're gonna have carpenters hanging internal door skirting architrave. The
• 1:34:46
  Speaker 1: architrave is deny little frame that goes around Yes, because
• 1:34:48
  Speaker 1: if hard people go what the fuck's and architrave. It's
• 1:34:50
  Speaker 1: the tiny little lovely skirt i e. Frame that goes
• 1:34:54
  Speaker 1: around the door. That's just door. It is door skirting.
• 1:34:57
  Speaker 1: That's it. It's like Polish people don't have a work
• 1:35:00
  Speaker 1: for toes. Do you know that they really fingers of
• 1:35:03
  Speaker 1: your feet? Well, that works too, and it works fine,
• 1:35:06
  Speaker 1: same as that skirting.
• 1:35:08
  Speaker 2: Skirting. Yeah, that's like I was drunk one night and
• 1:35:10
  Speaker 2: I fell over, and when the lads said to me,
• 1:35:13
  Speaker 2: like you all right, and I said, because I was drunk,
• 1:35:15
  Speaker 2: I said, I hurt the wrist of my foot. Why not?
• 1:35:17
  Speaker 2: It works and he goes, he goes your ankle, He goes, yeah,
• 1:35:20
  Speaker 2: that's the one.
• 1:35:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah. But you know what, there's times when you can
• 1:35:22
  Speaker 1: be over complicated things too. I totally got you. I
• 1:35:25
  Speaker 1: totally got you. So like the likes of the stairs, ballustrade,
• 1:35:28
  Speaker 1: the handrails, they're all going to be fitted now as
• 1:35:30
  Speaker 1: well as you know the linen cupboard that if you would,
• 1:35:33
  Speaker 1: I get as many shells and imagine to fucker just
• 1:35:36
  Speaker 1: get him in there and just get as many shells
• 1:35:38
  Speaker 1: as you can in that.
• 1:35:39
  Speaker 2: And I'm just going to say it as well for
• 1:35:41
  Speaker 2: your linen cupboard, or indeed the hot press as hot press, Yeah,
• 1:35:43
  Speaker 2: sit here, get a light putting it. Yes, tell them,
• 1:35:46
  Speaker 2: Brad said, y get a light putting your hot press. Okay,
• 1:35:50
  Speaker 2: you heard it.
• 1:35:50
  Speaker 1: Here first one hundred and ten percent. You know what
• 1:35:53
  Speaker 1: we could put that way back at actually will first
• 1:35:55
  Speaker 1: fix let's put that way back at first fixed.
• 1:35:58
  Speaker 2: Don't be shy.
• 1:35:58
  Speaker 1: This is it.
• 1:35:59
  Speaker 2: This is exactly what it is. Tom. You need to
• 1:36:01
  Speaker 2: know this going in because now you're in your second
• 1:36:03
  Speaker 2: fix and you go, hey, do you know what'll be
• 1:36:05
  Speaker 2: nice in the hot press if we put a light
• 1:36:07
  Speaker 2: in it? That's a good idea, and the autrition just
• 1:36:09
  Speaker 2: goes off for fox sake.
• 1:36:11
  Speaker 1: The only thing, the only thing is he will he'll
• 1:36:14
  Speaker 1: probably have taken wiring in there, and it's not going
• 1:36:16
  Speaker 1: to be a major deal because it doesn't have to
• 1:36:18
  Speaker 1: be pretty. You can leave conjurit outside the wall, right
• 1:36:21
  Speaker 1: You just happened to pick the one place. You're making
• 1:36:23
  Speaker 1: a good point, but you're picking the one place you
• 1:36:24
  Speaker 1: could probably I've got fine, I could just wall. You
• 1:36:28
  Speaker 1: don't have to be pretty, but you're dead right now.
• 1:36:31
  Speaker 1: The laft ladder, like the styra thet get it up there,
• 1:36:35
  Speaker 1: because now it's gonna be pershing cold coming down from it.
• 1:36:37
  Speaker 1: You need to close that off. Close that off now
• 1:36:39
  Speaker 1: because you're going to be thinking about getting timber floorers
• 1:36:41
  Speaker 1: in obviously laid by carpenters. You can give it a
• 1:36:43
  Speaker 1: go yourself, but this first time again we're assuming you're
• 1:36:46
  Speaker 1: not dirty in your hands, you're project managing the whole thing.
• 1:36:50
  Speaker 2: Tiles.
• 1:36:51
  Speaker 1: Have your tiles fucking on site, because they're mad bastards.
• 1:36:54
  Speaker 1: Good tilers and mad bastards. They'll fuck off faster if
• 1:36:58
  Speaker 1: you have, they'll be gone. They will not wait around
• 1:37:01
  Speaker 1: for you to go. I'm just gonna pop and get
• 1:37:03
  Speaker 1: it there, go gluck because them buys have ten jobs
• 1:37:07
  Speaker 1: on the waiting around fucking around for ten weeks afterwards.
• 1:37:12
  Speaker 1: So have your tiles and shit picked and where they're
• 1:37:14
  Speaker 1: going depending on how good you laid that floor earlier.
• 1:37:18
  Speaker 1: He may say leveling compound. Now, I know that sounds
• 1:37:21
  Speaker 1: like a fake word, like you know, go off and
• 1:37:24
  Speaker 1: buy make me a bag of first fix. It isn't
• 1:37:26
  Speaker 1: a leveling compound is actually a real thing. It's very
• 1:37:29
  Speaker 1: very very very watery cement water.
• 1:37:33
  Speaker 2: It's building.
• 1:37:33
  Speaker 1: It's builders bluff exactly. It builders bluff is the perfect word. Yeah,
• 1:37:37
  Speaker 1: I haven't heard that long. It gets the road if
• 1:37:40
  Speaker 1: the room is you know, sloping a little bit, if
• 1:37:42
  Speaker 1: it wasn't done. Don't worry your house saying I would
• 1:37:44
  Speaker 1: fall down. Just sometimes sometimes you can sometimes good. Sometimes
• 1:37:49
  Speaker 1: the ship you know its sometimes.
• 1:37:51
  Speaker 2: This squares it all up. It squares it all and
• 1:37:54
  Speaker 2: if you don't do this, you're not going to fucking
• 1:37:55
  Speaker 2: plummet to your death in your setting room.
• 1:37:57
  Speaker 1: Not adull, not dull. It'll be fine, it'll be fine.
• 1:38:02
  Speaker 1: Just be aware that you may be asked to get
• 1:38:04
  Speaker 1: some of this stuff. It's not a joke. Nobody's sending
• 1:38:06
  Speaker 1: you off for the fucking chocolate teapot or the biggest
• 1:38:08
  Speaker 1: marks for the fucking angle grinder.
• 1:38:10
  Speaker 2: This is a really I guess, I guess self level
• 1:38:11
  Speaker 2: and compound. It's a real thing.
• 1:38:14
  Speaker 1: So the likes of you know, in built what if
• 1:38:17
  Speaker 1: you are having you know, built in bedroom, fucking furniture
• 1:38:20
  Speaker 1: and stuff like that, get that done now, and.
• 1:38:22
  Speaker 2: Then when all that's in time you can turn around like,
• 1:38:24
  Speaker 2: oh yeah, no I don't really like it.
• 1:38:27
  Speaker 1: Of course again for double slash two and a half
• 1:38:29
  Speaker 1: times the price.
• 1:38:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, same again.
• 1:38:32
  Speaker 1: Same again. They'll fucking charge you for picking the hole,
• 1:38:35
  Speaker 1: as simple as that. If you've got if you've got
• 1:38:37
  Speaker 1: deep enough pockets, you can do whatever you want. And
• 1:38:40
  Speaker 1: we're just running with And.
• 1:38:42
  Speaker 2: Again here's the thing, Tom. You can live in the house.
• 1:38:45
  Speaker 2: You can basically live in the house here now. And
• 1:38:47
  Speaker 2: if money is if money is a thing, you don't
• 1:38:50
  Speaker 2: have to finish every room with the house in one go,
• 1:38:53
  Speaker 2: Like there's not a house in the country that doesn't
• 1:38:55
  Speaker 2: have a spare room that has no fucking carpet on
• 1:38:58
  Speaker 2: it or no wood floor. One undred percent. Yeah, yes,
• 1:39:01
  Speaker 2: that'll be. That'll be done when the money in necessity.
• 1:39:03
  Speaker 1: There's almost a shame thing goes with this, like whatever
• 1:39:06
  Speaker 1: you have to do to get in the fucking door,
• 1:39:08
  Speaker 1: don't worry about it. We're just giving you the We're
• 1:39:10
  Speaker 1: giving you green lights all the way through here on
• 1:39:12
  Speaker 1: the on the basic assumption, this would be the dream scenario.
• 1:39:16
  Speaker 1: I have lived on but literally lived on building sites
• 1:39:19
  Speaker 1: like lived in like don't think that you gotta get
• 1:39:22
  Speaker 1: this thing out the fucking gap. You can get one
• 1:39:24
  Speaker 1: room and something to cook a fucking sausage in the evening.
• 1:39:26
  Speaker 1: That'll do you and anybody that'll do you for fucking
• 1:39:29
  Speaker 1: six months, it's yours and you're in the fucking door.
• 1:39:32
  Speaker 2: The portalloo is still outside. You'll notice we haven't got
• 1:39:34
  Speaker 2: rid of it.
• 1:39:35
  Speaker 1: You No, no, exactly exactly, So start planning house part
• 1:39:40
  Speaker 1: ladies and gents. And I'm just saying, given the normal
• 1:39:43
  Speaker 1: scenario where you may have just liveing in a one
• 1:39:45
  Speaker 1: room where again an ant died left your ball of
• 1:39:47
  Speaker 1: money from America. You're getting it finished out the fucking gap, right,
• 1:39:50
  Speaker 1: So all that stands between you and eternity here now
• 1:39:53
  Speaker 1: is a few PERNICKEDI bits that have to be done.
• 1:39:55
  Speaker 1: They fucking have to be done.
• 1:39:56
  Speaker 2: This is what some.
• 1:39:57
  Speaker 1: Wankers will call it, like thord fix and stuff like.
• 1:39:59
  Speaker 1: That's how she almost a piss take on that. If
• 1:40:01
  Speaker 1: you meet a carpenter who's somebody's understanding, he's a third fix.
• 1:40:04
  Speaker 1: In other words, the fucker he didn't know what he's at.
• 1:40:06
  Speaker 2: To go back to our cake analogy, you've made a
• 1:40:09
  Speaker 2: birthday cake. You need candles on exactly.
• 1:40:12
  Speaker 1: So now like all the iron connectors through the consumer units,
• 1:40:15
  Speaker 1: so it's all going into the meter again, as Jerry said,
• 1:40:17
  Speaker 1: you know.
• 1:40:18
  Speaker 2: It's you know, it's ceremony. You do what you want.
• 1:40:22
  Speaker 1: So you will, of course, you know you'll have that box,
• 1:40:24
  Speaker 1: you know, either in the utility or in the hole. Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 1:40:27
  Speaker 1: with the fuse box right yeah, the trip switch when
• 1:40:30
  Speaker 1: which will go on occasion, it will go on occasion.
• 1:40:32
  Speaker 2: You know, don't call a man out the fucking don't
• 1:40:35
  Speaker 2: don't call somebody. I don't lady out there, you know
• 1:40:40
  Speaker 2: how to do this, put it back up to fuck.
• 1:40:42
  Speaker 2: I don't want to derailate Tom was. I know we've
• 1:40:43
  Speaker 2: been going on, but this is just so fascinating to me.
• 1:40:46
  Speaker 2: The the consumer units that we have now, the box
• 1:40:48
  Speaker 2: in the hall, it's a trip switch to a switch.
• 1:40:51
  Speaker 2: It's either up or then it clicks up or it
• 1:40:52
  Speaker 2: clicks down. But I remember back the one that we
• 1:40:56
  Speaker 2: had at home in the eighties with the actual ceramic
• 1:40:59
  Speaker 2: fuses right glass front a little window. What it was
• 1:41:04
  Speaker 2: was the fuse itself had like the end of the
• 1:41:07
  Speaker 2: fuse was a little wedge of whatever it was, and
• 1:41:10
  Speaker 2: when the fuse blew, it shut out that little wedge
• 1:41:13
  Speaker 2: like a little bullet. And when that shut out and
• 1:41:16
  Speaker 2: broke the glass window, that's how you knew which fuse
• 1:41:19
  Speaker 2: was gone.
• 1:41:19
  Speaker 1: And you would go and have a box of fucking
• 1:41:21
  Speaker 1: fuses yeah or yeah, And like you know, when you
• 1:41:24
  Speaker 1: put the fuse back in, you would never replace the
• 1:41:26
  Speaker 1: little glass window. So eventually all the little glass windows
• 1:41:28
  Speaker 1: were gone and you just had to eyeballer And if
• 1:41:31
  Speaker 1: you didn't have a fuse, tom oh, yeah, go on one.
• 1:41:38
  Speaker 1: You could wrap it with a little bit of fucking
• 1:41:40
  Speaker 1: tinfoile or something and put it back in and that
• 1:41:43
  Speaker 1: would do you for a couple of days until you
• 1:41:45
  Speaker 1: got a fuse, and eventually that.
• 1:41:46
  Speaker 2: Might actually be you know, a couple of weeks, months,
• 1:41:48
  Speaker 2: or years.
• 1:41:49
  Speaker 1: I saw a tenpence used on a big fuse in
• 1:41:51
  Speaker 1: a hotel I'm using inverted commas here worked in in
• 1:41:55
  Speaker 1: the same place had an electrical fire five years before
• 1:41:58
  Speaker 1: I worked there, and still insisted in miserable bastards put
• 1:42:02
  Speaker 1: a ten pence piece into And we were well into
• 1:42:06
  Speaker 1: the euro at this stage, Like they had a tenpence
• 1:42:08
  Speaker 1: piece and there's a lot. And when I went to
• 1:42:10
  Speaker 1: fucking check these, I got lifted and shot across. I
• 1:42:14
  Speaker 1: hit like eight feet through the air, hit.
• 1:42:15
  Speaker 2: The fucking wall.
• 1:42:16
  Speaker 1: Only that was young and fucking sturdy off.
• 1:42:18
  Speaker 2: At the time.
• 1:42:19
  Speaker 1: You could take tenpence piece, So thank Christ, they brought in,
• 1:42:23
  Speaker 1: brought in the switches. However, those convoluted fucking things. Now
• 1:42:29
  Speaker 1: is this thing pops the glass and looks in at it,
• 1:42:31
  Speaker 1: and you must change and throw often, but fucking put
• 1:42:34
  Speaker 1: the switches. Witches have been around. Switching switches have been
• 1:42:37
  Speaker 1: around way longer than fuses have been around. I don't
• 1:42:39
  Speaker 1: know how anyway any rate, we were just dressing there, right,
• 1:42:44
  Speaker 1: sink units and stuff like that. Oh now look I'm
• 1:42:47
  Speaker 1: putting I put this in here, but fucking hell tonight,
• 1:42:50
  Speaker 1: your earth you will often look under your sink and
• 1:42:52
  Speaker 1: you will see a little tag and the green and
• 1:42:55
  Speaker 1: yellow wire attached to said tags, attached to things like
• 1:42:58
  Speaker 1: the copper underneath that will it goes back to an
• 1:43:02
  Speaker 1: earth rod that was driven outside in the ground. Everything
• 1:43:05
  Speaker 1: electrical will have blue, brown and a yellow and green.
• 1:43:08
  Speaker 1: The yellow and green connects to everything, including all your
• 1:43:11
  Speaker 1: fucking fixtures and fittings and plumbing where that is made
• 1:43:14
  Speaker 1: out of steel or copper, or and mostly fucking copper
• 1:43:17
  Speaker 1: because it's so conductive, And they will all eventually be
• 1:43:19
  Speaker 1: put outside and wrapped around the steel bar that's driven
• 1:43:23
  Speaker 1: three feet into the fucking ground. Simple as that old
• 1:43:26
  Speaker 1: school as Jesus.
• 1:43:27
  Speaker 2: That's just how electricity works. To him, I honestly thought
• 1:43:30
  Speaker 2: that these days and age they would have come up
• 1:43:32
  Speaker 2: with something fancier than this then to like, you know,
• 1:43:35
  Speaker 2: tie it all back to a rod that's pounded into
• 1:43:37
  Speaker 2: the fucking ground.
• 1:43:38
  Speaker 1: You know, you'd love to think so, but no lightning
• 1:43:41
  Speaker 1: can still stricture lightning can still strike lightning and changed
• 1:43:44
  Speaker 1: its fucking slap, So the thing is nowadays a lot
• 1:43:50
  Speaker 1: of things won't actually transferred electricity through the house that
• 1:43:52
  Speaker 1: they used to. But still you still got to earth everything.
• 1:43:54
  Speaker 1: You've got earth everything because if it doesn't, most likely
• 1:43:57
  Speaker 1: fires where you're at, most likely rather than you actually
• 1:43:59
  Speaker 1: get fucking blasted as well brushing your fucking teeth. Since
• 1:44:02
  Speaker 1: everything all senator were fitted and plumbed. Everything put in
• 1:44:06
  Speaker 1: at the state, all your plumb and gear, while your
• 1:44:08
  Speaker 1: kitchen gear, you know, your rads, your towel rails, all
• 1:44:11
  Speaker 1: fitted plumbed in on the floor, heating loops connected into
• 1:44:14
  Speaker 1: the big They called it a manifold. And manifold is
• 1:44:16
  Speaker 1: where any anything in a car, where an oarhouse, where
• 1:44:19
  Speaker 1: a bunch of things all come together. Once it's a manifold.
• 1:44:21
  Speaker 1: All your loops, they'll all come together. You connect two
• 1:44:25
  Speaker 1: things to something, that thing's a manifold. It's a manifold.
• 1:44:27
  Speaker 1: So essentially all your pipeworking connections, you know, do you
• 1:44:30
  Speaker 1: all to have to be flushed through? You'll see him
• 1:44:31
  Speaker 1: flush through and putting a little pump on the end
• 1:44:33
  Speaker 1: of it with a little meter. They got to make
• 1:44:35
  Speaker 1: sure there's no holes in the fucking eggs, because sometimes
• 1:44:38
  Speaker 1: when timber floor goes down and stuff like that, a
• 1:44:41
  Speaker 1: fucking nail will go through something somewhere and they'll be
• 1:44:43
  Speaker 1: you may not see it now, but you may fucking
• 1:44:46
  Speaker 1: feel it in six months time when all of a
• 1:44:48
  Speaker 1: sudden your foot goes through something. It's it can happen.
• 1:44:51
  Speaker 1: So they will have you pressure tests it this time.
• 1:44:53
  Speaker 1: I don't know if you want to stand over your
• 1:44:55
  Speaker 1: plumbers fucking shoulder and while he does it, at a
• 1:44:58
  Speaker 1: while she does it. I know a female, so who
• 1:45:00
  Speaker 1: knows it does have to be done amazing, We'll tell
• 1:45:02
  Speaker 1: you so again.
• 1:45:03
  Speaker 2: You maybe you just want to break chats and fucking
• 1:45:05
  Speaker 2: have a conversation with your plumber going hey, yeah, pressure
• 1:45:08
  Speaker 2: testing today. And the pressure testing it's really simple. They
• 1:45:14
  Speaker 2: pump it full of air and they hold it out
• 1:45:16
  Speaker 2: and the little gauge that says okay, it's holding that
• 1:45:19
  Speaker 2: forty bar or whatever like that, and you fuck off
• 1:45:21
  Speaker 2: for a couple of hours and you can back later
• 1:45:23
  Speaker 2: on and if it's dipped from that, there's a leak somewhere.
• 1:45:25
  Speaker 1: Yep, there's a leak somewhere. There's five ways of finding
• 1:45:27
  Speaker 1: that to die through everything else. Sometimes it's very obvious.
• 1:45:30
  Speaker 1: If you pump water through, you may find where it is.
• 1:45:33
  Speaker 1: But look, that's so for your plumber to teat you
• 1:45:35
  Speaker 1: on the day. We ain't we ain't a plug. I'm
• 1:45:37
  Speaker 1: just saying the majority of the things we've mentioned today
• 1:45:40
  Speaker 1: can also be used as conversation pieces with your actual
• 1:45:43
  Speaker 1: trades on site, you know what I mean, Just to
• 1:45:45
  Speaker 1: be sound about things, rather than you trying to sound
• 1:45:47
  Speaker 1: like I know more than you saying things like we
• 1:45:50
  Speaker 1: pressure testing today.
• 1:45:51
  Speaker 2: Cool, I got that first fix for you in the
• 1:45:53
  Speaker 2: shop again.
• 1:45:55
  Speaker 1: Somebody's gonna put it in your sandwich when you start
• 1:45:57
  Speaker 1: talking like that.
• 1:45:57
  Speaker 2: It's just gonna be careful. Yeah, that kind of top
• 1:46:00
  Speaker 2: just cost you a thousand euros.
• 1:46:01
  Speaker 1: All of a sudden, you just see somebody start going,
• 1:46:03
  Speaker 1: did we bring the saddle? Did we bring this saddle?
• 1:46:05
  Speaker 1: Because we're about to throw on this mother phone. So look, jerr,
• 1:46:07
  Speaker 1: we've almost reached our our reverse. We're fucking we've left
• 1:46:11
  Speaker 1: base camp and we're on the sharpers are fucking leading
• 1:46:13
  Speaker 1: us all the way up. Now at this stage, we
• 1:46:15
  Speaker 1: are putting on the oxygen tanks. We're fucking ready, right,
• 1:46:18
  Speaker 1: We're ready now this next bit, Tom and Jerry and
• 1:46:21
  Speaker 1: Suns have been talked about this on numerous occasions Stance
• 1:46:25
  Speaker 1: through the years. Now is book a fucking weekend in
• 1:46:30
  Speaker 1: West Cork. A week in West Cork. I just fuck
• 1:46:33
  Speaker 1: off having left a list of your art you know what,
• 1:46:37
  Speaker 1: just you know, leave a list in each room of
• 1:46:40
  Speaker 1: your colors and their locasions. Yes, it's the fucking painting section.
• 1:46:44
  Speaker 1: Get a man and just go on holidays. Don't even
• 1:46:46
  Speaker 1: be around for this.
• 1:46:47
  Speaker 2: You have earned a break at this stage. You've been
• 1:46:49
  Speaker 2: working at this house for fourteen days, fourteen days since
• 1:47:00
  Speaker 2: you first turned aside. We're here. No, you've earned a
• 1:47:03
  Speaker 2: time foot off. Yeah, that's something else. Paint have nothing

  Speaker 1: With it, nothing to do come back, tombs up, shake
• 1:47:08
  Speaker 1: hands for you, bob, look, thanks very much for that.
• 1:47:10
  Speaker 1: Don't be fucking painted, especially a new house. You don't
• 1:47:13
  Speaker 1: want to be. It's one thing. You gotta paint the
• 1:47:15
  Speaker 1: inside of a fucking covered to nobody be looking at
• 1:47:18
  Speaker 1: in the you know. But there's a new house. Get
• 1:47:20
  Speaker 1: get I mean get theme.
• 1:47:22
  Speaker 2: You got a prime one. You gotta paint a wall
• 1:47:24
  Speaker 2: four times before you put a color on.
• 1:47:26
  Speaker 1: It, so I mean they'll be cutting in things and
• 1:47:28
  Speaker 1: stuff like that.
• 1:47:29
  Speaker 3: So just let it.
• 1:47:29
  Speaker 1: Let the man at lead them to it. Lame to also,
• 1:47:33
  Speaker 1: you've got landscaped to think about your you have put
• 1:47:35
  Speaker 1: in your lovely foot paths and your driveway and stuff.
• 1:47:37
  Speaker 1: But like I talked about earlier, right at the very beginning,
• 1:47:40
  Speaker 1: when we peel the cheese off the pizza, tomp time
• 1:47:43
  Speaker 1: to get that cheese back out because you cap that cheese. Now,
• 1:47:45
  Speaker 1: this is something I want you to remember. I genuinely
• 1:47:48
  Speaker 1: hope somebody builds a house off the bass.
• 1:47:53
  Speaker 2: I want to see you. I want to see this house.
• 1:47:55
  Speaker 1: If you do get somebody to peel off the pizza,
• 1:47:59
  Speaker 1: don't let them just dump it because you might be
• 1:48:01
  Speaker 1: driving the dumper that they don't just dump it in there.
• 1:48:03
  Speaker 1: And this is something people never think of. They fucking
• 1:48:06
  Speaker 1: over in the corner of the site. Listen, it might
• 1:48:08
  Speaker 1: be two and a half years, three years before you
• 1:48:09
  Speaker 1: get to actually get to this point. That's the truth
• 1:48:12
  Speaker 1: be told. Right there's a man up the road. Jer
• 1:48:14
  Speaker 1: I swear to guy literally, no Joe, it's sixteen years,
• 1:48:18
  Speaker 1: sixteen years since he was able, and now he's doing
• 1:48:20
  Speaker 1: some fucking job in it. Now the house has finished
• 1:48:22
  Speaker 1: all barn the garden. He's getting the landscaping done now,
• 1:48:25
  Speaker 1: and that's the.
• 1:48:26
  Speaker 2: Money might have the money might have run out. Tom,
• 1:48:28
  Speaker 2: I gotta tell you this is.
• 1:48:30
  Speaker 1: School uniforms are more important than a fucking rose bush.
• 1:48:33
  Speaker 1: I can tell you that much there as you know.
• 1:48:34
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean.
• 1:48:35
  Speaker 1: But he didn't do the right thing. They had to halloway,
• 1:48:38
  Speaker 1: They had to haul away the soil that was there.
• 1:48:40
  Speaker 1: He's aught, it's perfect, but it wasn't put it. It
• 1:48:42
  Speaker 1: wasn't stored well. When it's your top soil, think of
• 1:48:45
  Speaker 1: it as a completely different product. It is the fucking
• 1:48:49
  Speaker 1: icing or the cheese, and if the fucking subsoil is
• 1:48:52
  Speaker 1: the pizza dough, two completely different things. You have to
• 1:48:55
  Speaker 1: mind it. You gotta get that digger man to put
• 1:48:57
  Speaker 1: in the corner nicely and then rub his bucket. Know
• 1:49:00
  Speaker 1: this sounds really weird, but it's called capping to put
• 1:49:02
  Speaker 1: a nice shiny finish on the outside. Don't even all
• 1:49:05
  Speaker 1: bust it up like Mount Dune. Yeah yeah, because water
• 1:49:08
  Speaker 1: would hit that and then run off the sides of it.
• 1:49:11
  Speaker 2: Genny, we will.
• 1:49:11
  Speaker 1: It creates a shell on the outside, and all the
• 1:49:14
  Speaker 1: things that make top soile topsid I e. It's full
• 1:49:16
  Speaker 1: of lovely vegetation where shit will grow, and it's not
• 1:49:19
  Speaker 1: dead like fucking subsoil, which so nothing grows. It turns
• 1:49:22
  Speaker 1: the subside because over that three year period, ye're all
• 1:49:25
  Speaker 1: the minerals and minerals, all the minerals, all the fucking minerals.
• 1:49:29
  Speaker 1: You've got the minuals, have you you got the minuals.
• 1:49:32
  Speaker 1: Have a look, boy, you got fucking minors. All the
• 1:49:35
  Speaker 1: minerals are washed away because you left it bushed open
• 1:49:37
  Speaker 1: for the fucking world and it's mother's you know, environment
• 1:49:41
  Speaker 1: to flow through it.
• 1:49:42
