What are John and davey up to these days?

Man, I thought accessory building bylaws were stingy here in my Toronto suburb at 2.8m total height.

I bought one 2 years ago for a 5x3. Build pack is worth it just for the materials list, never mind the instructions. The waste from the materials list was hardly anything. Liams videos are also top notch and they have so many hints and tips. Have recently sold our house and gutted to be leaving it, definitely helped sell it. Thanks Liam

Hi liam very interested. I dont do facebook tho .so what are my options?

I never even owned a power tool until I bought your build pack this time last year. I watched all of your videos. I now have a 5x4 garden room, which I use for work and storage. I've learnt a lot in the last 12 months than any other time in my life. I've learnt about diy and more importantly about myself i e. how resilient, determined, and patient I can be . Thanks Liam😊

I’ve just built a garden room / shed using the rod system. I have no experience and I have to say I’m super proud with how it came out.

I'm building my own garden room right now (just finished the foundations and base frame), after years of watching this and other channels. I have to say this channel has been one of the most informative and detailed of them all. These guys gave me the confidence to get off my arse and build mine.

I purchased a build pack from Liam 3 years ago and now I have a beautiful garden room the exact same quality build that Liam does in the videos, thank you Liam 👍

Didn't quiet understand if you mentioned there's overhang on flooring around the edges if so how much is the over hang and what is the purpose of over hang just for my understanding. Keep up the great work

When is your next video on the granny flat?

I bought the build pack 2 years ago and built my own garden building! It is a quality document, fair play, it really is class set of instructions and I couldn’t have done it without the pack. Big respect

I watched Liam’s videos last year and built my own office garden room for our home in France. He provided great tips and instructions during the videos. If I can do it anyone can!!

Why have you done a solid block out of ground, where will any ingress of water run down to without a cavity in the ground? You might have covered it but I’ve just found you, sorry.

More than happy to recommend Liam's build packs and the information on his UA-cam videos. Informative and entertaining. Big thank you to Liam and his team.

I am in the process of having a house built. Part of that dream is a garden room, The room will accommodate a workshop (wood) and an office. As a quick question would 9m x 3.5-4 be too much to ask for a build pack? I do not want to go down the road of separate structures, Cheers.

I purchased one 3 years ago and now I have a 8x4 garden room and workshop with a secret door made from cedar. All from build pack and videos. I didn’t even own a power tool when I started. Had a quote from builder stating it would cost at least 40k to reproduce. So go for it. If I can do it any one can. Cheers Liam.

If I’m not right please correct me 1”80 is for storm water 1”40 is foul water required run

Been watching alot of your videos want to build a 5m x 3m but on another note you should do a compilation video of completed diy builds by people that have bought the build packs. Surely alot of people would be proud to send you a lit bit of footage to put in the compilation. Plus it gives people more ideas for their own diy builds for different finishes and styles. Great work btw.

I built a garden room with your build pack. Turned out lovely. Good to see you are still putting great content out. My back hurts watching though.

Love this.. I’m not experienced in any sense, but could you build the frame square first and then add the rods through the frame so you know where to dig exactly. I feel like lining up the holes with the 4x3 would be difficult for someone with no experience. Probably just me though 😂

Can the overhangs be completely insulated and sealed up the same as the rest of the roof ?

Liam, aim more towards the 1:40 ratio. The last thing you want is it not being steep enough, to flush everything away with ease.

Liam, use an electric water heater. There’s no need for gas water heating.

I did my extension recently, and when I was making up the mark for the Bricky, he told me to use an old bin to keep water next to the mixer, much quicker than filling it up each time with a hosepipe

Was not expecting the deadpool ski mask when cutting the blocks. 🤣

So used to seeing you doing timber things, I had to take a double take to understand what was going on

£20k all in i reckon

Also a revolutionary new app that will help with any questions you have like this and calculate anything is CHATgbt honestly it calculates anything

sent you a WhatsApp message on the burner phone its a shallow fall drops about 10mm per meter

You remind me of me but I would have barrowed those blocks in lol

I would love to work with you for a week or so, been a roofer for 13 years and now since watching your videos you have inspired me to venture into the possibility of a career in garden rooms 😁 I love your channel sir 👍

You have a 1 in 93 chance of being right with that maths mate

Would you not risk flooding if you have your interior level the same as outside ground level?

Fantastic info, as always. I'm currently building my own garden office and just about to put PIR insulation boards into my walls. A friend (experienced DYIer I guess) said I need to have a gap between the board and external OSB for ventilation. Please could someone confirm / correct that, as I've not seen anyone (here nor on other channels) suggest similar? I followed the standard construction with C24 treated 4x2, OSB on the outside and EPDM membrane. Planning to put the 75mm PIR boards all the way in to touch the OSB, fill in gaps with expanding foam, leaving circa 20mm gap between PIR and plasterboard (wiring will go there). Does that sound right? Also, would anyone bother with a vapour barrier before plasterboard, if I have no plumbing, unlikely to have a kettle in there. I will do some exercise, but will then make sure the room is ventilated. Thanks in advance.

Why are you not splitting your seems on a 2x ?

Check out if you need to go to manhole to turn corners etc. You will drop 50mm but you can buy from OSMA very low drop inspection chambers.....also be careful for coming in a floor level and ground level, recommendation is two brick up from ground level....check out the nhbc standards. Great videos

But where is she now ?????

is your front and rear overhangs filled with insulation ? i'm at that stage now and can't tell from the video if you've treated it the same as the rest of the roof and jammed it full of insulation ?

Another brilliant video. Thank you.

Also internal floor level should be minimum 150 above external ground level

Waste drainage should really be 1:40, you’ll not get any blockage problems, that would be 700mm over th 28 m, you can use pencil lintels they are only 75mm height inc 10mm bed. You’d be better raising the internal floor level n putting in a ramp at the front if access is an issue for elderly or disabled, think your headed for problems with a 1:93 for soil waste

You remind me of the bad guy in commando with that black vest on "let of some steam Bennett" 😂 great job doing that in the heat.

On hot days add a few ice cubes to the mix

Keep going Liam, great content as always 👊

I’d add 2 courses of engineering bricks(blue) so your DPC is 2 bricks above what you said. This should match your house and is the correct way. A shallow 2brick to ground level ramp to get in the entrance. Personally I think it will look better too. It will certainly stop future damp problems and your annex will look better built. Probably ease drainage install too, but that’s not my forte 🫡

Hindsight is a wonderful thing Liam but if you do again or to others who are having a go . I said before get the biggest digger you can access, scrape everything away and stone the full site up before you even start digging . You then are digging on clean level ground . Keep the digger on hire for bit longer and use to level around footing and around slab plus you can use to bring your materials round and save you Time and back ache .Buliding is always time v money and weather . The less you handball the better . Enjoy watching you your one of the best on here .

Liam man yr videos are getting better and better. I’d really like to have a go at a build like this someday soon and your vids are giving me a lot of insight into what I will be able to (and won’t be able to) manage 👍👍👍

Love this guy. What makes him different is that he doesn't try and polish things up. He's honest with his abilities and limitations. He seeks genuine help from those in the know. It shouldn't be but his content is addictive. Keep it up Liam. Great work.

For someone who's not a bricky you ain't doing too bad mate. I'm a bit like you learn as you go little tip for you tho once you've laid brick if it's a warm sunny day get it covered the sun will dry it out too quick and that decent mix will go to dust

What was that sheet you are using to keep track of costings, excel?
