Been absolutely hammering it down lately, road’s not even in yet, but site’s still looking mint.

Groundworkers have cracked on with drainage, utilities, fencing & paving. Plasterers smashing through the top 2 plots, nearly wrapped up.

Joiners firing trusses up ready for the brickys, who’ve been grafting non stop to get the right hand plots up to wall plate.

Another 3 plots will be watertight before long and the internals will be flying again.

Developers want momentum. Trades want organised sites. That’s what we’re building here.

30/09/2025

You can tell a lot about a build by the plastering.
If it’s sloppy, the whole place feels cheap.
If it’s sharp, smooth, and bang on, suddenly buyers see the quality.

That’s why I love working with lads who get it right first time. No snags, no bodges, no hold ups further down the line.

The photos do the talking here 👇

29/09/2025

Trusses on, ready for peaks & the roof going on, we’ll be watertight before you know it.

For developers, this is the turning point. No more praying the weather holds. No more waiting around. Once we’re sealed up, the sparks, plumbers, and chippies can crack straight on.

Every day a build sits idle, it costs money. That’s why we graft to get watertight quick, so you’re not left stressing about delays or chasing trades that can’t start.

Keep it moving. Keep it earning. That’s how we work.

22/09/2025

Right, let’s have it straight! Ibstock bricks are a joke! The quality is shocking.
WE ARE Ibstock - at the heart of building

You get slated & pulled online & onsite, “look at that bed joint, it’s all over the place.” Yeah alright mate, but when there’s up to 5mm difference in the height of a single brick, what do you expect?

At the end of the day, you can only p**s with the c**k you’ve got, and this is the gear we’ve been lumped with. Poor tolerances, bad quality, and still somehow it’s the lads on the tools that get the stick. We’re bricklayers, not bloody magicians.

And here’s Ibstock calling themselves a leading manufacturer. Leading who, exactly? Certainly not by example.

Truth is, it’s not the brickies making a mess of things. It’s the manufacturers pumping out substandard gear, then acting like we’re the problem & expecting us to make them look perfect.

That said, I’ll back my lads every time. They graft, they adapt, and they still turn out work to be proud of. Just imagine the standard we’d hit if we actually had decent materials.

So what do you reckon? Should brickies keep carrying the can, or should manufacturers like Ibstock be held accountable & start owning their part in this?

👇 Let’s hear it.

The same bloke piped up on my post yesterday, “Loads of room… you’ve never had it bad, you’re an amature.” 😂

Funny that mate. Except in this video you’ll see there’s just enough space to fit one foot. Tight as it comes.

Here’s the thing:
I know developers don’t pay for problems, they pay for solutions.

Thats why we don’t waste energy moaning about it.
We don’t point fingers looking for someone to blame.
We plan, we crack on, and we deliver.

Because the job doesn’t care about excuses, it cares about results.

And that’s why we win every time. Not because it’s easy. Not because we’re lucky.
But because we know what needs doing, and we just get it done.

18/09/2025

Tight squeeze? Bit awkward? Course it is.
But that’s the job.

Kick up a fuss, moan about access, drag our heels.
We just crack on. Head down, get the graft in, get it done.

End of the day, all that matters is moving the job forward.

No excuses. No drama. Just progress.

The only thing rough here is the fella running his mouth.

Some bloke reckoned we “must be rough as toast cause I only post drone shots.” 🤦‍♂️
Not that I need to justify our graft to anyone, but here’s a close up for you. 🖕

Exactly like I’ve said before, clean, quality work.

If you’re a bricky who can graft and get on with anyone give me a bell.
If you’re a baghead running your mouth like this lad don’t bother, you won’t last here.
And if you’re a developer who’s sick to death of idiots and just want a professional on your job, ring me.

15/09/2025

Door linings are in, first fix electrics done, and plastering well underway. Always satisfying to see the transition from bare boards to a smooth skim finish. It’s the stage where a build really starts to feel like a home.

For developers, this is the turning point where the structure becomes a space people can picture living in. For tradesmen, it’s the detail work, making sure everything is on point & solid for what comes next.

Every stage sets up the next trade, teamwork at its best 👷‍♂️👷‍♀️

How many of you agree this is when a project finally starts to come alive?”

12/09/2025

Not be long now and we’ll have 3 more ready for truss’s and start getting the lads working on the internals.

11/09/2025

Another plot nearly up to scaffold height, our brickies are grafting, and the quality shows.

Our lads know the score, phones down, no shortcuts, no excuses. We keep a clean site, run it efficiently, and actually enjoy grafting together. That’s why developers keep telling us the same three things: quality, passion, reliability.

And that’s what sets us apart from the cheap lads knocking prices down. You don’t get reliability at rock-bottom rates.

We’re not here for that. We’re here to build properly, every time.
And soon enough, we’ll be doing it on land of our own.

I’m proud to show our site off with the drone because let’s be honest, a site should look as professional as the houses we’re building.

10/09/2025

Another plot flying up 👊 Scaffolders wrapping round ready for the brickys, trusses landed on site and good to go once that wall plate’s on.

We’ve had a curveball thrown in the mix & lost 6 days thanks to things outside our control. No point moaning, heads down, graft on, and we’ll have this one back on track.

03/09/2025

Plaster’s hitting the walls now 💪

It’s been flat out the last few weeks, sparkys and plumbers smashing through the first fix, all lined up so the plasterers could roll straight in.

This is the bit I love seeing… walls finally taking shape, turning it from a building site into a home.

Big graft from everyone on site to get it to this stage 👊
