I'm hated on site for snagging other contactors while they're still on the job. Sad that it's so common I see it daily now. Would love your job

The *“shoe issue”* hahaha 😅 I love your videos so much

Glad you like them!

It would be great if you could do a statistic of snags and the builders they come from and then do some sort of ranking and give out virtual trophies to those that take 1st, 2nd and 3rd places :P

What actually happens after such major snags are found? Surely they aren't knocking down walls and rebuilding them properly. Do they just find a different buyer who doesn't notice?

Excellent questions that I'd also like to know the answer to.

Depends if its life threatening stuff it's definitely redone and reported if it's small stuff it usually is aswell depending on company of course some are complete cowboys yoy can generally tell about quality just by the company who's building them without even looking at the house

Definitely wouldn't recommend anyone buying a new build. But if you must make sure get get a full survey done before moving in 😂😂

That toilet flush and shower water feature 😂. How is that even possible 😮

By making the sewer pipe both lead to, way too small, so you have a standard size toilet drain, putting water into a small pipe. This won't fit, so pressure inside the sewer system builds and it pushes the water in the shower drain up.

​@@GK-qc5ry it's definitely good practise to keep them seperwte if possible. Ours isnt so if toilrt is blocked if you plunge it you get the toilet contents coming out into the bath. Nice eh.

I absolutely love your commentary. Fabulous!

Those weep vents had me crying my eyes out..😢

"The Apocalypse Finish" remark makes me chuckle every time 😂

Are these sites completely unmanaged? Where are all the skilled tradesmen?

Brexiteers insisted they go back to their own country. So they did and this channel has endless content from the results.

I cracked up laughing when I saw the extraction fan in the shower. Just... what?!

if you want a new build, build it yourself, best way to get the job done properly.

Don’t tell me…Redrow homes? Had one once, never again!

No don't, went to a new build yesterday to do some repairs on a 3 year old, god it was dreadful, apparently the downstairs wc had its pan connector put on back to front, now I'm a plumber and I haven't a clue how they did that

More shocking than the quality of the finish is the medieval technology employed to construct those houses. I'm from Eastern Europe, and the new builds there are light years ahead of the UK. I don't understand British resistance to progress.

Apocalypse finish 💥

How has it come to this? This is why I would never buy a new build house because you'll find so many faults and then spend absolutely ages trying to get the companies to fix them. I'd ask the government to chase these housing companies up. But, they're all in it together that's the problem.

The shoe! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

The electric extraction has to be in the wrong zone? No way is it IP rated to be within the shower zone.

@petesharpe5478

It's probably not even connected, so no ip rating needed! 😂😂

I'm a self employed carpenter/joiner but I will not work on new build sites as I refuse to be associated with the horrendous work that is carried out. Private one off builds are generally ok but not these new estates that get thrown up in a matter of days.

I think I noticed a lot of Gleeson "great" finish in this video 😂

you can buy a house made in the 1920s, roll a grenade through the front door, and walk in to find the place more intact than most new builds

Where is Building Control ?

Must had same builder I had from Bridgend

Im moving in to a new build in october come do mine 👍👍

Everyone is on price work now so they don’t have pride in their work. I’m a sparky and I’d never work on new build houses.

The demand is so high, that if you won’t take this property, somebody else definitely will. RIDICULOUS!

Former builder here. No, no you should not buy a new build. In my town, theyve built on marshland and former dumps. yes dumps. Methane. those houses are great.. if you dont have a spirit level.. they'll sink or blow up or become victim to toxic gases. Be careful people!!

I live in the San Francisco Bay Area and there's a few towns here that were built entirely on reclaimed marshland before people realised it's a bad idea. There's a huge liquefaction risk in those areas, and they'd be the most dangerous areas to be in if there's a large earthquake.

That radiator can't be real. Where would you even buy one that small?

Crazy

I am a retired construction worker, I have seen it all and would advise every potential house buyer to avoid all property built within the last 15 years, they are ALL shit

Trouble is so called tradesmen have no pride in there work most the company's i worked for if you had to go back to put your work right, you did it in your own time and did not get paid for it, so everyone did there job right first time

What company was the majority of these snags from mate? Just curious lol

U can find snags in any house in the uk

buy it before the price doubles!, or your mortgage offer is withdrawn, beggars can't be choosers

Where are you bro?

But who is signing off this work? Would have thought it was in developers interest to get it right first time rsther than costing money on fixing issues...

@crackthedraco4459

They would rather sign them off to get them over the deadline goals they get set and front the cost later once snagged. Wouldn’t be surprised if they have a fund for snagging on property only

Man what has happened with the construction business lately? Whatever happened to taking pride in your work. Geezuz man.

The skilled workers left, back to the EU countries they came from, or the UK nationals went to Australia, New Zealand and Canada where they get paid more and don't have to put up with crap house building companies.

Have you quit? No video in ages and Facebook is just spam about arresting people for bad driving.
