Thiiiiiis is going well
What happens here
The video begins with an overview of the construction site. The narrator explains that previous concrete removal exposed the house's foundation brickwork, which did not extend to the desired depth. The current phase involves building up this existing brickwork and constructing two new columns. This initial step for a DIYer would involve assessing the existing structure, understanding the scope of work, and planning the layout for the new brick courses and column locations.
Goal: Understand the project scope and plan the new brickwork layout.
Tools and materials
- Chalk Line — Marking straight lines on the ground or existing wall for brick placement
- Measuring Tape — Taking measurements for brickwork layout and column dimensions
- Blue Painter's Tape — Marking reference points and lines on the existing wall for new brick courses
