Jack of all trades, master of absolutely nothing, DIY hero.
Based in the UK, bought a 1960s house which could do with bulldozing and starting again! Video are mainly focussed on DIY but could be anything I find remotely interesting.
Having wanted to be a carpenter fresh out of school, I was convinced otherwise and moved in to the corporate world, a choice I often struggle with... "what if". Anyway, keen to always have a go, I renovated my first house top to bottom almost entirely myself. Not having had the time to make videos first time round, this time will be different. First house sold, and we've moved on to a new project (disaster) that requires another full strip out and rebuild.

I have been looking for this video!! Thank you so much! So useful 🤩
"In the bathroom now /slash workshop " made me laugh . It's ironic you made the statement in the toilet. Growing up, "slash" meant going for a pee , yes I know I'm infantile . Apart from that , new to your channel , enjoyed you video 👍 Have to respect your honestly when you announce that you are out of your depth when it comes to fixing the roof , good on you .At present working on a 1969 property . All the very best.
Agreed. I've lived in many older homes, 1920, 1930, 1940, and 1960. The painting crimes are real..
brilliant video, exactly what I was looking for, I was quoted £750 for a very similar window and all it needs is the hinge
The only sander you need is a pole or a hand sander! Everything else is just a waste of time,money and effort! Just my 35+ years experience opinion! 😎
I have the same house with same problem but it was nice to see someone with patience and know how great vid thanks
❤
good job 👍👍
You've got no idea pal. Hire a professional.
Never! 😂
looks like you just needed some wd40 in that
I wish
Always have a second set of hands lifting out or fitting back in window. Easy to do but can easy drop out when the last screw comes out
Agreed 💯
You got to wonder why professional roofers are watching these videos and then criticising 🤔🤣… he found the leak and fixed it. I’ve had several ‘professional’ roofers do several bodge jobs and not fix a thing.
It's certainly better than previous bodge merchants that had a go, at least it's an A* bodge now 😂
LEGEND!
👊
Good video. Crazy that some idiot put the protectors on top of the felt.🤪
Even a DIY goon like myself could see the issue 😂
Thank you for this amazing video
Glad you liked it!
Came here to watch something more interesting after the England game.
😂
And what about window hinges with rivets
Hmm, no idea to be honest, my DIY knowledge runs out. Possibly drill out the rivets and replace with screws but that sounds like a lot of hassle
Nicely done kid.
Amatuer hour at its finest 😂
Cool accent bro
incorrectly applied....
Fixed though 👊
@@froywhernside But still incorrectly applied. You are misleading people, well at least you are misleading ignorant people.
You could have trimmed the ragged ends of the old membrane as they serve no purpose and eave protectors should be under the membrane as was said already. Well done for having a go at fixing a roof anyway, just they need ladders etc makes them a pain. I’ve a phobia of heights so it’s tough tackling my roof but I did it.
Would love to get a whole new roof one day... I'll keep dreaming for now
Is there a newer version of this sander? I am not seeing it on amazon
I doubt it will be on Amazon, it's only in Screwfix and B&Q
That's the video I was looking for! Thanks buddy! Well done! 🙌
No problem 👍
Great Vid-Well done for saving yourself from Rip Off Roofers-tiles, batten, membrane cheap. Just scaffolding to negociate.
The only time I've been happy to have a flat roof... 😂
About to start on doing this on an acre of land with no trees...This is helpful. I think I will go with 6fters in the front for an instant privacy hedge and some of these smallers for the sides. appreciate the tips mate.
Mine are taking longer to grow than expected so I would go taller next time 👍
Honestly, you get what you pay for & this is evident from the workmanship. All cables lying around, not a cable cleat in site. Looking at the single cable down to the switches I’d assume they’ve used a 3 plate method, but regs now we should be taking the feed to the switch, so this already doesn’t comply with latest regs. Shame on them.
Time was of the essence and the budget was tight.. true you get what you pay for
Roof tiles are cheap. Felts cheap . Battens cheap. Why would you make a video using cheap nasty flashband . It’s temporary roof repair tape. Makes me laugh when I see people like this trying to do it themselves and they just cause more damage and problems, then wonder why it’s costing so much to remove everything. Take advice people . Do not listen or take advise from this clown who made this video
Hey great video! When you’re caulking and you take it up the wall would you continue to the roof or just where necessary?
I only do where needed 👍
would it not be easier to replace the plastic bit instead?
Yes but the cost of a new hinge is minimal for peace of mind
Hi mate, I scanned my renault clio 2013 and I got this main error Dtc80df1b, my airbag lights are on (they suddenly one day just turned on), do you thing this could be my issue? Thanks in advance.
Not a clue to be honest 😂 Google the code and see what others say
I had a little water coming into my loft where the lead was covering the tiles where you put the flash banding (water was tracking underneath like yours for the same reason - not enough overlap), but I used some leadmate caulking between the tiles and the lead flashing. It did the trick and has lasted a few years, but I might try the flash banding you used next time - I don't know if it was around when I used the leadmate. As a DIYer myself, I was impressed by how you interpreted how things went together, why, and how you could make it better. Keep up the good work!
that roof is bad. flat roof I can it needs to be replaced, you fix the back with a under membrain give it small slope
Super job ✨✨✨✨👍🏽
Thank you 🤗
Have people on here not realised this was a DIY job? Nicely done, some issues yes, but it'll be watertight until the life of the roof comes to an end and probably saved you not much change out of a grand 👍
Always good to know you can do things solo. Really helpful video, thanks. Gonna remove the foam draft excluders and swap the hinges this week.
I've used that Flexacryl for a similar leak and it's still sealing after ten years, so it works well.
Great, it certainly gives you confidence when you apply it
Thanks for sharing
Did the same to my conservatory a few weeks ago. Didn't have a "proper" chemical myself so just used some Bilt hamber Surfex HD (apc). As I have a garden and 2 cats didn't really want to use any toxic chemicals because of that as well.
Great walkthrough video
add some sort of mesh to the product even if it says it doesnt need it. that or ger a product that needs it because i dont care what it says it always needs mesh over openings like that. it will seal it for some time but not nearly as long as it could be sealed.
Good idea 👍
Amazing
Would love to see an update!
I will do one, not much progress yet to be honest but they're all still alive!
The lead flashing is way too long ,1.5 metres maximum length
thanks Froy apprieciate the video
20 minutes to explain something that can be done in less than 5 minutes
Love you too, thanks for watching 😘
Literally tape it and it’s fine
We have a similar issue taping won't fix it.
I have a small garden at the front of my house. The soil is hard it’s hard to dig there was a bush in there before many years ago but they took it out if I do this it would fit about 2 bush trees width and maybe 4 along the front I want this for privacy. Do I need to put different soil down?
I would turn the soil as much as possible to get air into it, make sure all the roots are removed from the old bush and then mix in some fresh top soil or compost to give them the bast chance
@@froywhernside thank you so much.
Has this made a big difference to noise reduction? Because my room is next to a main road and the noise is driving me crazy since there’s a gap in the windows.
Yes it did, also stopped the annoying wind whistle
Thanks for this tutorial. I,m going to give this a go myself , but I am also going to fit bird stop at the same time as we are having a lot of birds nesting in our roof.
Please I had a front half roof replaced on 1900s terraced house. The reason the roof failed of 40 years maybe, was the felt at the eaves had disintergrated allowing water that had penetrated the roof slates to not to reach the gutter. The roof was fitted recently with no eaves suport trays. I insisted the roofer fit them eaves support trays, he said I did not need them. I told him that modern current practices would include them on a replacement roof. From my commonsense am I right and should they be fitted as normal practice? Many thanks
I'm not a roofer but I don't see why they would not be fitted. They stop the membrane sagging long-term.
@@froywhernside Many thanks, every other person except my roofer completely agrees the need for the trays to be fitted. After a direct request my roofer fitted the eaves trays, requiring the new slates to be refitted to allow the trays to be nailed to the rafters. Commonsense many thanks for your confirmation.
