Ah! the KZread algorithm sometime throws us an unexpected delight every now and then. Left home as a boy to come to London, and I really miss the Norfolk accent. A real pleasure to hear it spoken..a rare find on KZread….wishing the young lad here all the best in his filming and diy adventures!

Top tip for old shed demo if you don't have a digger. Cut through ¾ of supports (using chainsaw, recip, hand saw, etc.) and push it over or pull with ropes. Much easier/quicker to complete demo when it's around your feet, and safer as you don't need to work off a ladder. Just remember to remove any glass first. Edit: if a friend says they want the old shed, tell them it's been condemned if they're not going to remove it themselves 😂

Perfect timing... Just about to create a 7.2x 3.6 workshop/gym and not sure whether to just create a timber insulated base 150-200mm thick and sit it on pads, our "soil" is hard packed sand/gravel fluvioglacial till (utter nightmare to dig it) so if I decide to concrete it it'll just be setting up the formwork on top of that as Type1 won't be needed!! (I've got a crappy 6x8 shed sitting in the way I 've cleared all around it and need it up on skids to try and shunt it out the way first... got a Tirfor winch thing and will use the car tow point as an anchor lol)

Hi and thanks for your excellent tuitions they are really good to understand. Question I have an old but very reliable system....Baxi Back Boiler cylinder in loft along with header tank and now because of disability I don’t/can’t use the bath all our showers are electric So we are heating up a large cylinder for nothing which is costing. I want to stick a gate valve on the input to the cylinder coil would the heating still run doing it it there if not where. Thank you so much in anticipation

We tried that but the angle didn’t work well because of the sloped pathway

I'm hoping for a cross shape 4 gabled roof

Id max it out at the 30 square metres. The garden looks big enough anyway and the additional material costs is fairly minimal.

@TheDIYGuy1

8 ай бұрын

Yeah could do. Only reason I’m not is so I can make a hard standing for working outside and doubling up as a patio at the rear of the garden where the old shed was. 👍

Cameron, have you got a death wish? Going inside a shed held together by nowt and shoving the bugger around. You gingers are in short supply, stop trying to narrow the odds :) Seriously tho, that was a good day's work, well worth the sherbert at the end. Keen to see the ground being laid, we get all the guys who do drive ways around here and they are all jack of no trades types. Want to see how it's properly done. As for the workshop, maybe some electrical work, make it a station for any CCTV you install, that sort of thing. A proper good watch so far...Paul...

Looking forward to the rest of this series! Two questions 1. Do you have particular reasoning behind not opting for ground screws or the rod system like oakwood use? 2. How is the apple tree fairing up? 🤞

Brilliant work. I'm picking my nails eager to suggest foundations, but you specifically said you're making a video about it, so I'm just as excited to see what you do! Live your videos. As a general builder myself who takes on all levels of work, I love finding out things I don't have experience with!

Really enjoyed that one. For someone who has got to do a similar thing it was quite educational. Bit naughty of me Cameron, but how much was the hire of the digger? Thanks

@TheDIYGuy1

8 ай бұрын

Glad you liked it. It was £130 with the mini dumper for a day

Hmm 200mm including sub 4x5m, I'm concerned, does it have grid rio? My reason being is that soil is so light. How much concrete you going for, if 150 I will shut up 😃

@TheDIYGuy1

8 ай бұрын

It’s 100mm type 1 hardcore compacted, 20mm blinding compacted, DPM, Rebar and spacers, 100mm c24 concrete. Been building them like this for years with not a single issue so I’m happy it will be sufficient.

Looking forward to these liked the info on regulations . The pad should be interesting as looking to do similar to store my motorbikes Costings would be good ball park like digger hire ,material costs etc a bit like wheeled dealers just a shopping list at the end of each episode

If you’re able to build to 30m square, is there a reason other than cost not to go 5x6. I ask because I have the same project to do myself. Appreciate your videos. They helped massively with my own renovation project. Many thanks 👍.

@@TheDIYGuy1 I think technically you do because you’re within 1m of the boundary. But because you’re planning to cover it with metal (non-combustible) material then I think you’re still exempt. I’m planning my workshop build at the moment and planning to go under 15m to avoid this.
