Garden room or workshop floor construction process the simple way

Building a garden room or workshop floor in structural timber is a very simple process with all of the joists the same length, I really enjoy getting out on site and doing some serious first carpentry and joinery

    Hi Robin, Thank you for all your video's, enjoyed watching loads of them, including skill builder. I'm coming up to 64 years of age and been in construction since I was 16. I'd love to come and help you for a few days for no money but lots of tea! I live in the Twickenham area and prepared to travel. I won't bring my zimmer frame with me so don't worry, I'm quite fit apart from that.
