I was a union bricklayer for 25 years. It was a good living and I have a nice pension. I enjoy watching these videos. Brings back nice memories of a noble trade.

The big projects are good to see but these sorts of jobs are so much better to see - this is the sort of job so many homeowners are likely to take on and so it’s good to be able to see someone do it and to see how it’s done!

Good job Stu & KC, the blog videos are ace!

[driften]

There is something so gratifying to watch someone take pride in their work and do a great job 👍🏻

[edadryanski]

I have never done any bricklaying but followed your video and was amazed how good the finish I achieved was. Didn’t have a Stihl saw but used my trusty angle grinder. Given that my house is constructed with engineering bricks, the hardest part was knocking the bricks out! Thank you so much for posting the video, I couldn’t have done the job without it!

Stu & KC are differently the best instructive brickie video's to watch on the internet. These video's should be required watching in every trade college in England & Australia. Europe can do what they want after Brexit completes. The only problem I can see for viewers, apprentices.tradies & Tech teachers alike, is that these video's can become very addictive. They are even better than many current reality shows on the TV. Stu & KC, please keep up the good work & thanks for being so natural & real all the time, it's just a joy to watch your vids.

Blown bricks, a year of furlough, and eye-watering quotes brought me here.

Getting ready to take on a large brick restoration project back from the 1930's. My experience is with mostly ground level concrete, not structural. You just built up my confidence, thank you. I'll watch more of your video's, hopefully it gives me all I need to make these structures come back to life.

As a Plumber I must have done dozens and dozens of these over the years. I have got quite good at it and always leave a nice tidy job. I have too because Brickies seem to hate doing it lol. You make it look quite easy. Nice job Stu

I’ve never laid a brick in my life and I just sat here and watched the whole thing

If you get an old car innertube, cut it near the valve, seal the ends up, then you can feed a loop of the tube into the cavity through the vent hole, inflate it and it'll trap all of your debris. Then after you've removed all the bricks that are coming out and cleaned up the joints, you can pull the innertube out and all the crap with it.

As a gas engineer I had to learn this myself pretty quickly! Nice to know I've been doin it rite.

[stephenpeacock]

I did 6 bricks to fill a hole about 6 months ago, first time ever with bricks. Used same 30 year old bricks that the previous owner had kept. For my first time I was amazed with the result, way better than I thought i could do,

[alanbricker]

Dude! I didn't start to replace the bricks in my chimney yet because, prior to your video, I didn't know how to do it. Your video is extremely clear and informative. I have a sneaking suspicion that you just saved me hundreds (if not THOUSANDS) of dollars, so thank you for THAT.

[michaelmaxwell]

Thank you for taking pride in the job! if it wasn't for the new bricks, it would not look replaced.

I am repairing the back wall of my old 1920s bank building where I now live. The wall, and especially the mortar, has been degraded through water pouring down the outside of the wall for decades. Literally all the mortar washed away over the years between about 16 bricks in 5 courses! Cold air now pours in where the bricks are missing and between the masonry block behind the brick, and whole building is suffering from the prairie winds every time they blow. I just did the first two courses, having removed the worst as well as any bricks not far from falling out. This is my first time at this, but your tutorial prepared me well and, maybe, by the time I get the last course down, it won't look too bad. Thanks for the clear tutorial!

[jbossnack]

Good luck if you're a plumber LOL
It does look great...I did a small repair job for someone yesterday and it wasn't the hardest but also not the easiest...you have great skill...you will always be busy with work like this.

I bought a Bosch mortar removing chisel for my sds, does a quicker job with less dust. Best £25 I've spent

[tonyevans]

Top video - clear, concise, and methodical workmanship, that shows how to get a tidy finish without faffing around. I see far too many videos on here that stutter, stumble, waffle, and all whilst giving very dangerous advice. Thanks lads!

[leonsmith]

Both the brickwork and the video were masterful. Thank you.

[cstanveer]

i have just start watching your videos from last week and start learning it..very good for someone to learn .
