Changing the existing floor structure to move the staircase
In this video we will be going through how to remove a floor to allow for a new staircase to be fitted in a different position. This is a four part series ending in the fitting off the new stairs.

i do love how you always belt and brace all of your jobs .....as you know it makes sense nice job as always cant wait to see the end result
Great stuff again Rich. Looking forward to the progress. Cheers 🍻
1 of my pet hates the hangers being over sized I always pack with 9mm ply either between the double or on the outside so it lines through when boarding. Then bead of resin in the top of the slot. Great work as always
Superb work! Can't beat a bit of joist work!
Awesome work Richie
Toolstation stock 91mm hangers, think there made by speedy
So, that's not coming apart anytime soon 😊 yes coffeetime... Appy with that? APPPPYYY Malcs in Perth WA ♥️

Love your content mate. I’m just a keen DIYer (most complex thing I’ve done is build my garden office) but love watching more complex building jobs. One observation if I may - I noticed you didn’t use washers on the coach bolts. when I doubled up the rafters on my garden room I also used coach bolts but found without big washers the heads were pulling through the timber! Probably just me overtightening the darn things….

Solid and sturdy job you've done there Rich, can't see that floor going anywhere soon. The point you made about the minimum 2m headroom I thought that applied to all stairs wherever they are in the house ? By the way what has happened to the big job and Mick for that matter, have you given him his cards or are you keeping that job under wraps till next year ?

I wasn’t 100% sure on the headroom so better to be safe than sorry. I did mean to ask to Stairbox but I forgot. I may confirm it on the next video if I remember. 👍🏻
Maybe those double hangars are oversized because you sometimes have to sandwich a piece of steel plate in between two joists for load bearing purposes? Just a guess really.

Annoying packing out hangers, but Speedy Fixings do offer their Built-in Masonry Hangers in 91mm & 100mm widths & various depths, also Simpson do them. And Timco also list a 90mm width.

great job rich. what do you think of that adjustable angle nail bar. i have been tempted a few times but never pulled the trigger. you should get a wider diamond blade for jobs like that. i have a 6 and an 8 . great for those metal lead clips. you know its fully clear then. the sds method is a pain to get that last stuburn bit out

Hi Alan. I wouldn’t hesitate with your purchase of the nail bar it’s excellent and very versatile because of the adjusting head. I’ve got a couple of different blades but wanted a tight fit and to be honest the bricks were that soft on this occasion the drilling out method worked out great for me. Thanks for commenting on the video mate and your continuing support it’s very much appreciated. 👍🏻

Nice front door, you don't get that with new houses.
Nice job Andy, as usual!! Did you forget the compo under the new trimmers..?? and some adhesive between the old end..?? Reckon I'd wait for the slate to pack those timers, better than compo. All the best, keep em coming pls !

By the time I’d levelled the trimmers in there was hardly a gap. It looked more before I started messing with the acro props to level it in. I did put several packers and plenty adhesive under them and between the old and new. At least I know you were listening to what I was saying and not just watching what I was doting thanks for that 😁👍🏻

Think I'd of chopped the double trimmer into the 9" solid wall by one skin depth then wrapped the end of the trimmers in DPC
@mrabuilders6723
7 ай бұрын
This is a solid 9” wall and it’s not good practice to pocket joists into it in my opinion. It introduces the opportunity to pull more damp into the inner face. Also if you wrap it in DPC and moisture gets into the void where the joist sits it can then get trapped in between the DPC and the timber causing the joist to rot. Thanks for taking the time to comment Anthony and thanks for watching.

@@mrabuilders6723 Agree,old fashion pockets nowadays, hangers the better option & less work..
I think the hangers out there always seem to comply with rough sawn sizes, so 2" is 2", 4" is 4" etc.. But timbers are rough sawn to those sizes and then planed down slightly, hence why they don't fit exactly.
@mrabuilders6723
7 ай бұрын
Can’t disagree with that but for many years now we find easy edge sections at our stockists which are regulated to the same size so a 2” timber will now be either 44mm or 47mm. I haven’t used rough sawn timber for over 10 years at a guess especially for joists and rafters etc. Thanks for taking the time to comment. 👍🏻
