Roofers, please do not slate my roofing skills by here! No pun intended 🀣🀣

Been on this job for a good while on and off, it's absolutely huge, so I got asked to build a lean to porch for over the main doorway, built it, and then asked when the roofer is coming to slate the roof.

Customer replied, the roofer is already here, cos your doing it. So he must have some trust in my workmanship to do this, considering iv never evan cut a slate in my life never mind slate a whole roof. And to be honest I don't think I've done too bad for my first attempt, a couple of tik tock tutorials and a bit of templates and marking out on some timber first and I was away! No water has got through yet, so I think I may have mastered it! 🏑 πŸ”¨ enjoyed doing this type of work for a change too so that made it easier. When you actually enjoy it! πŸ‘Œ

Full downstairs of herrinbone lvt flooring fitted a few days ago, πŸ‘Œ always a knee and back breaker fitting this stuff, but it's very rewarding once that final board gets layed! Some herrinbone goes down so lovely, and others are a bastards to lay, and this particular one, was one of the bastards! 🀣 but how lush does this make the house look though! 🏑 πŸ”¨

I Have a 2 day slot available end of this week for any carpentry work needed. Thursday and Friday. Preferably indoor work, as its ment to be pi***ng down, flooring, doors, (if theres space to cut and trim doors inside) that type of thing, something that doesnt involve setting up outside, or if its outside work like fencing, or gates that type of thing. I don't mind getting wet. It's the materials and tools. If interested. Send me a message. Thanks jamie 🏑 πŸ”¨

Imagine waking up and opening your bedroom door and walking out to this view every morning, with a cuppa and some biscuits! 🍡 🌞

birds tweeting and the sun just about rising! Wow
Absolutely stunning scenery! πŸŒ„

So the previous decking was very badly damaged due to water gathering in-between the joistwork and over the years all the timber got very bad and all rotted, and the decking was then very unsafe.

So we ripped the whole thing up, and relayed the joists a different way, to allow for heavy downpours to flow into the guttering without the chance of any blockages. Due to this decking being on a fibre glass flat roof, we had to make the whole decking solid enough to only be able to fix into the back wall of the house, so the weight of that glass didn't blow off or rip the whole thing off the roof!
We then fitted new decking on top of it and refixed all the glass panels and posts back into place!

Very much enjoyed doing this job. This was actually done last summer. But totally forgot about the pics I had of this! Hopefully be able to do more decking jobs this summer, if we ever get some sunshine! 🌞

The loft is not my most favourite room in a house if I'm honest, wouldnt like to say how mamy miles we done up and down 2 fkights of stairs, but I'm so glad these are finally completed, and they do look absolutely stunning

So I got asked to come in and build the dwarf walls either side once the loft was all converted, the one side being for storage, and the other, a hanging rail for tshirts and shorter items of clothing!
Actually it's a 4 metre long clothes rail in total, so plenty of room there!

A lot of behind the scenes work goes into this, from ripping down the mdf door linings, and door stops, and I evan made the pencil round architrave out of mdf too! People just see doors, but from a finish carpenters eyes, we see all the minor details involved! πŸ”¨ 🀌

Any bespoke mdf projects you have in mind, then please do get in touch! 🏑 πŸ”¨ just not up a loft though please! 🀣

"πŸ”Šwow, what a lush home upgrade: a stunning acoustic panelled feature wall with sleek oak slatted panels, with a black backround!
Also paired with it, we’ve hidden a clever secret door, using a push to open system, under the stairs – perfect for tucking away shoes πŸ‘ž, coats πŸ§₯, cleaning equipment and all your other everyday gear, keeping the space neat and tidy.

This makeover blends premium design with smart storage, turning an ordinary wall into a functional masterpiece.

Please check out some of my previous work with some awesome storage spaces and storage ideas! 🏑 πŸ”¨

media wall day! 🌞 πŸ”¨πŸͺš

and its actually rather nice to be able to build the media wall flat on the floor and then offer it up into place for a change,

with the walls perfectly square, plum, and level!
why?
because I built the walls haha

Males things a lot easier and quicker this way! πŸ‘Œ

Also I'm noticing, I'm starting to add a lot of dewalt tools to my collection lately along with all of my makita tools! And also found out that these dewalt levels are the best levels iv ever owned! Theyre great! πŸ‘Œ 🏑 πŸ”¨

your either set up on a tiny pavement, with pedestrians passing with prams and dogs etc and your legs on the actual road cutting your skirting boards, nearly getting hit by buses and cars!

or there's being set up like this! 🌞 πŸͺ΅ πŸͺš πŸ”¨ I know which one I prefer!

being a carpenter, you need space, for your work station, so being in a garden like this to cut in is acually a blessing, and the sun is absolutely beaming too! 🌞 today's going to be a good day! πŸ‘
