The Farm 16 - What's GOING on??? Day Spent on the Roof Timbers | EXPERT Carpentry Skills!!
Saving Stepping Stones from washing down the river when it floods. The guys used our Kubota excavator to manoeuvre the huge stepping stone back into position. We used core drills to drill through the stepping stones and the bedrock. We then installed Cintec Anchors into the river bed which anchored the stones in place.Share this Video with friends and family: https://youtu.be/wyZ2neXhq_Y Join our Channel - You can subscribe to our channel below. http://www.youtube.com/user/UKRestorationServices?sub_confirmation=1UK Restoration Services Playlist's Carpentry & Joinery: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_kl7NjslizGYzEAg6DHSTR5y Lime Work: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_klwopXzJnEOCkI2VxsrHWIG Roofing: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_kkCH8gTps-w3Lisd5V6520k Structural Repairs: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_knSGKjiQYGqTd0uGc_SLHj6 Restoration How-To's: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_kmUndOU26Hz8b97Ewa5zs6V The Farm: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_klq9DF6zWr93-znH7nXoN2t Plant & Equipment: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_kn_wU_5d5m3FsHiQSUJ9oz0Website & Contact Website - https://www.restoration-services.uk.com Email - media@restoration-services.uk.com #constructionlife #builder #excavator #river #steppingstone #structuralengineering #cintec #digger #fyp #civilengineering
Stepping Stones across River FIXED - using Cintec Anchors
Restoration of the Abraham Darby Furnace at Ironbridge – full internal scaffolding complete as we begin major structural steel repairs, corrosion treatment, and roof removal on this historic industrial landmark. Ironbridge Gorge World Heritage Site restoration update covering scaffold installation, steelwork inspection, purlin corrosion, sandblasting plans, and heritage conservation works.In this site update, I take you inside the Abraham Darby Furnace at Ironbridge to show the newly completed internal scaffolding — finished in just three weeks instead of the planned six to seven. The scale of the scaffold is incredible, with large spanning beams, crash decks at the apex, and multiple working levels giving safe access to the entire structure.We walk through the planned works including inspection and repair of corroded steel beams, purlins, wind bracing, and apex steelwork. Significant corrosion has already been identified, including steelwork rusted completely through, highlighting the hidden challenges of restoring historic industrial buildings.This video also covers:- Internal scaffold and crash deck installation- Corrosion and steelwork defects in apex purlins- Planned sandblasting vs grinding for surface preparation- Zinc-rich protective coatings for long-term protection- Removal and resealing of historic windows with failed gaskets- External scaffolding works starting before Christmas- Roof cladding removal planned for the New Year- Site access roads, temporary works, and logisticsOnce the roof is removed, the full condition of the structure will be revealed and major repairs to the furnace frame will begin, followed by conservation and restoration of the furnace itself.This project forms part of the ongoing conservation work within the Ironbridge Gorge World Heritage Site, preserving one of the most important structures in the history of ironmaking.If you’re interested in heritage restoration, industrial archaeology, historic steel structures, or conservation engineering, subscribe for further updates as the project progresses.Share this Video with friends and family: https://youtu.be/MkOWiBkHCFw Join our Channel - You can subscribe to our channel below. http://www.youtube.com/user/UKRestorationServices?sub_confirmation=1UK Restoration Services Playlist's Carpentry & Joinery: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_kl7NjslizGYzEAg6DHSTR5y Lime Work: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_klwopXzJnEOCkI2VxsrHWIG Roofing: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_kkCH8gTps-w3Lisd5V6520k Structural Repairs: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_knSGKjiQYGqTd0uGc_SLHj6 Restoration How-To's: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_kmUndOU26Hz8b97Ewa5zs6V The Farm: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_klq9DF6zWr93-znH7nXoN2t Plant & Equipment: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_kn_wU_5d5m3FsHiQSUJ9oz0Website & Contact Website - https://www.restoration-services.uk.com Email - media@restoration-services.uk.com #AbrahamDarbyFurnace #Ironbridge #IronbridgeGorge #HeritageRestoration #IndustrialHeritage #WorldHeritageSite #HistoricBuildings #Scaffolding #SteelRepair #CorrosionRepair #Sandblasting #StructuralEngineering
UPDATE - Historic Furnace Restoration at Ironbridge | Scaffolding, Corrosion & Steel Repairs
In this video, I document the final push on a heritage building restoration, finishing critical leadwork, roof repairs, guttering, and traditional timber window restoration before the scaffold is removed. With time running out and weather turning against us, some work gets completed, some gets patched temporarily, and some has to wait until the new year — because rushing historic repairs never ends well.

How we Install Lead Box Gutters - Wet EDITION | Bridlington Shop Restoration continues!!
Back at Bridlington on this heritage building restoration, and what started as a routine gutter repair quickly turned into a major structural timber repair.Once the gutter was stripped out, we uncovered extensive rot to the wall plate, rafter ends, and hidden decay inside a principal roof truss. Timber that appeared sound externally was completely rotten internally – a common issue in historic and heritage properties where water ingress has gone unnoticed for decades. Part 5: https://youtu.be/pdacgd06O_M Part 4: https://youtu.be/rwTob_VD5zY Part 3: https://youtu.be/TCdh5NRFWyc Part 2: https://youtu.be/fWBkJs5vArY Part 1: https://youtu.be/oegV0EEMeJQ This project became a full traditional building restoration, involving:- Removal of failed gutters- Replacement of rotten wall plates-Repairing and splicing rafter ends- Structural timber repairs using traditional methods- Rebuilding gutter falls for proper drainage- Preparing and installing new lead gutter linings- Temporary weather protection to keep the building dryWith Christmas approaching and the roof fully exposed, it turned into a race against time to stabilise the structure and protect this listed / heritage-style building from further damage.This is real heritage conservation work — uncovering hidden defects, respecting original construction, and repairing buildings properly rather than covering problems up.👉 We post restoration and heritage building videos every Wednesday & Sunday Subscribe if you’re interested in traditional building repair, historic restoration, roofing, timber framing, and conservation craftsmanship.Music Code; ZKJYJL0JTSQLOFG4Share this Video with friends and family: https://youtu.be/2Aj89GxPxT4 Join our Channel - You can subscribe to our channel below. http://www.youtube.com/user/UKRestorationServices?sub_confirmation=1UK Restoration Services Playlist's Carpentry & Joinery: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_kl7NjslizGYzEAg6DHSTR5y Lime Work: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_klwopXzJnEOCkI2VxsrHWIG Roofing: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_kkCH8gTps-w3Lisd5V6520k Structural Repairs: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_knSGKjiQYGqTd0uGc_SLHj6 Restoration How-To's: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_kmUndOU26Hz8b97Ewa5zs6V The Farm: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_klq9DF6zWr93-znH7nXoN2t Plant & Equipment: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_kn_wU_5d5m3FsHiQSUJ9oz0Website & Contact Website - https://www.restoration-services.uk.com Email - media@restoration-services.uk.com #HeritageRestoration #BuildingRestoration #HistoricBuilding #TraditionalBuilding #HeritageRoofing #RoofRestoration #TimberRestoration #StructuralTimber #WallPlate #RafterRepair #RottenTimber #LeadGutter #GutterRestoration #ConservationWork #HeritageConservation #OldBuilding #ListedBuilding #HistoricProperty #TraditionalCraft #ConservationCraftsmanship #UKRestoration #YorkshireRestoration #Bridlington
"SHOCKING" Roof Timbers ROTTEN | Rebuilding Lead Lined Gutter on Bridlington Historic Shop
We’re back on site at Nantwich, for a major historic building repair as we begin essential structural timber frame works ahead of the Christmas shutdown. Prat 1; https://youtu.be/tRCoIolLDB4 In this video, we install extensive temporary propping and structural support using RMD props and steel beams, allowing us to safely remove sections of roof, ceilings, stud walls, cob infill, and internal partitions. With the building fully supported, we start exposing the original traditional timber frame, including wall plates, tie beams, posts, and historic joints.This phase of the project focuses on:Structural propping and load transferControlled jacking to take weight off the wall plateRemoval of cob walls and timber infill panelsInvestigation of historic timber joints and old splicesIdentifying beetle infestation and moisture-related timber decayPreparation for new green oak posts and tie beamsTraditional timber framing techniques for conservation workMaking new infill frames ready for lime cork and lime renderDue to the scale of the work, we’re carefully sequencing tasks to ensure the building is left weather-tight and protected over the Christmas break. Rendering will follow in the new year once the new oak elements are installed.This project highlights the complexity of heritage building conservation, listed building repair, and traditional construction methods, combining modern temporary works with historic materials and craftsmanship.If you’re interested in timber frame restoration, structural repairs, cob buildings, oak framing, or heritage construction, this video gives a detailed look at how these buildings are safely opened up and repaired.Thanks for watching — and fair play to everyone who spotted the location clues in the last video.Share this Video with friends and family: https://youtu.be/0b0Z3F2TGdc Join our Channel - You can subscribe to our channel below. http://www.youtube.com/user/UKRestorationServices?sub_confirmation=1UK Restoration Services Playlist's Carpentry & Joinery: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_kl7NjslizGYzEAg6DHSTR5y Lime Work: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_klwopXzJnEOCkI2VxsrHWIG Roofing: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_kkCH8gTps-w3Lisd5V6520k Structural Repairs: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_knSGKjiQYGqTd0uGc_SLHj6 Restoration How-To's: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_kmUndOU26Hz8b97Ewa5zs6V The Farm: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_klq9DF6zWr93-znH7nXoN2t Plant & Equipment: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_kn_wU_5d5m3FsHiQSUJ9oz0Website & Contact Website - https://www.restoration-services.uk.com Email - media@restoration-services.uk.com #TimberFrame #HistoricBuilding #BuildingConservation #StructuralRepairs #HeritageRestoration #OakFraming #TraditionalBuilding #CobBuilding #ListedBuilding #ConstructionVlog #StructuralEngineering #TemporaryWorks #RMDProps #GreenOak #TimberRepair #HeritageConstruction #OldBuildings #TraditionalCraft #BuildingRestoration #UKConstruction
Taking the Weight Off the Roof | Major Timber Frame Structural Repairs & Restoration Underway
Restoration week back in Bridlington, and this job has thrown everything at us — from wet blasting media blocking the pot, to water-logged filters, terrible water pressure, and even the electricity being cut off because a previous tenant was growing weed in the basement.Part 1 https://youtu.be/oegV0EEMeJQ?si=HU3UeDrYhP7IEXtD Part 2: https://youtu.be/fWBkJs5vArY?si=bxPc8pD5zYQ3NQgG Part 3: https://youtu.be/rwTob_VD5zY?si=el8yZhHS79js8CskBut after days of troubleshooting, experimenting with different media, adding extra water separators, draining filters every bag, and changing techniques, we finally cracked the problem and got the blasting machine running perfectly.In this video I break down: 👉 Why the original media behaved like flour and kept clogging 👉 How moisture in the lines and pot caused constant problems 👉 The setup changes that finally fixed everything 👉 Cleaning decades of carbon, dirt and yellow staining off the stone 👉 Prepping the woodwork for linseed oil paint 👉 Scaffold updates, pointing work, repairs & the final push before Christmas 👉 Local problems: no gas, low water pressure, and surprise archive photos of the original shopfrontMassive thank you to Mike for digging up the original 100+ year old photographs of the building — incredible research!We’re nearly there with this restoration. Next week: pointing, repairs, and hopefully getting the scaffold down before Christmas.New restoration videos every Wednesday & Sunday.

This Ultra-Fine Sandblasting Media Nearly RUINED the Job — Specialist Faience Cleaning
Join us on this major historic building restoration as we uncover severe structural failures inside a centuries-old oak timber frame property. This video documents the full inspection of rotten beams, collapsed wall plates, failed corbels, damaged trusses, and the dangerous structural movement that has occurred over time.When we opened up the building earlier in the year, we found extensive hidden damage behind the original Wattle & Daub panels, including decayed posts, twisted tie beams, wet rot, insect damage, and historic repairs carried out with cement, concrete block, and modern fillers. After months of delays securing listed building consent, conservation approvals and structural engineering sign-off, we are finally able to begin the first stage of stabilisation.In this walkthrough you’ll see: • Timber frame decay including rotten truss ends, collapsed wall plates and failing corbels • Original Wattle & Daub infill and how we’ll save and reuse the historic clay • Jetty structure movement, outward rotation, and load transfer problems • Gutter failures causing long-term water ingress and oak frame deterioration • Incorrect cement repairs, brick infills and bodged timbers that made things worse • Our plan for structural propping, using RMD props, steel beams and Acro support • Preparations for timber splicing, new oak beams, new corbels and frame rebuilding • How traditional buildings handle movement and why they’re still standingThis is a multi-month project involving: ✔ Traditional timber frame carpentry ✔ Oak beam replacement & joinery ✔ Heritage restoration techniques ✔ Structural stabilisation & propping ✔ Conservation-approved methods ✔ Listed building repair planning ✔ Preservation of historic materials ✔ Lime work & Wattle and Daub reinstatementIf you’re interested in structural timber repairs, heritage carpentry, conservation work, building pathology, traditional oak framing, lime-based building materials, or restoring listed buildings, this entire series will be packed with technical detail and hands-on craftsmanship.Make sure to subscribe to follow every stage of this restoration — from propping, lifting and stabilising, through to splicing new beams, rebuilding the timber frame, reinstating Wattle & Daub, and bringing this incredible building back to life.Share this Video with friends and family: https://youtu.be/tRCoIolLDB4 Join our Channel - You can subscribe to our channel below. http://www.youtube.com/user/UKRestorationServices?sub_confirmation=1UK Restoration Services Playlist's Carpentry & Joinery: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_kl7NjslizGYzEAg6DHSTR5y Lime Work: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_klwopXzJnEOCkI2VxsrHWIG Roofing: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_kkCH8gTps-w3Lisd5V6520k Structural Repairs: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_knSGKjiQYGqTd0uGc_SLHj6 Restoration How-To's: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_kmUndOU26Hz8b97Ewa5zs6V The Farm: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_klq9DF6zWr93-znH7nXoN2t Plant & Equipment: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_kn_wU_5d5m3FsHiQSUJ9oz0Website & Contact Website - https://www.restoration-services.uk.com Email - media@restoration-services.uk.com #HistoricRestoration #TimberFrameRepair #ListedBuilding #HeritageCarpentry #WattleAndDaub #OakFrameRestoration #BuildingConservation #StructuralRepair #TraditionalCraftsmanship #OldBuildingRescue #TimberFrameRot #HeritageRestoration #ConservationWork #StructuralEngineering #SavingHistory
MAJOR Structural Rescue Begins! Rotten Truss, Collapsed Jetty & Failing Oak Frame Exposed
In today’s video I dive into a full teardown of our blasting pot after it completely failed on us at Bridlington last week. What should have been a quick Sunday check-up turned into a full workshop repair session — oversized 60-65mm spanners, 8 miles of PTFE tape, moisture problems, blocked lines, vibrating pistons, and even a mystery loose part buried inside the pot.Before that, it’s been a busy day on the farm sorting the cows and scanning them, and by the time I finally got into the workshop it was already 3PM… and I still hadn’t had breakfast! But this machine needs to be working for Monday, so it’s time to strip it down, find the fault, and get it rebuilt.You’ll see everything from pulling the pot apart, inspecting seals, checking air pistons, clearing blockages, and diagnosing what actually caused the problem. I also show how we deal with moisture in the blasting media, why the air vibrator might be compacting the dolomite, and the trick I’m using to warm the media up with the compressor heat.Plus — a look at the massive oak timber sections we’ve just had delivered. Biggest pieces we’ve ever had in the yard! We’ve got a huge project starting soon and I’ll be filming that as well.Whether you’re into farm life, machinery fixes, workshop repairs, blasting equipment, tools, or behind-the-scenes vlogs, this video is packed full of real-world problem solving.⭐ In This Video:Full teardown of the blasting unitFinding the source of the blockageWhy the air vibrator may be causing issuesFixing seals, valves, springs & the air pistonMoisture problems with media & how I dry itWorkshop tips, mistakes & real-world fixesA look at the giant oak timber for a new projectReal farm life — cows, kids, long days & no food!🔧 Gear / Tech Mentioned:55mm, 58mm, 60mm & 65mm spannersPTFE tape (lots of it)Dolomite blasting mediaAir piston & valve assemblyAir compressor heat-drying trickShare this Video with friends and family: https://youtu.be/rwTob_VD5zY Join our Channel - You can subscribe to our channel below. http://www.youtube.com/user/UKRestorationServices?sub_confirmation=1UK Restoration Services Playlist's Carpentry & Joinery: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_kl7NjslizGYzEAg6DHSTR5y Lime Work: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_klwopXzJnEOCkI2VxsrHWIG Roofing: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_kkCH8gTps-w3Lisd5V6520k Structural Repairs: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_knSGKjiQYGqTd0uGc_SLHj6 Restoration How-To's: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_kmUndOU26Hz8b97Ewa5zs6V The Farm: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_klq9DF6zWr93-znH7nXoN2t Plant & Equipment: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_kn_wU_5d5m3FsHiQSUJ9oz0Website & Contact Website - https://www.restoration-services.uk.com Email - media@restoration-services.uk.com #WorkshopLife #MachineryRepair #WorkshopRepair #EngineeringLife #FixIt #DIYFix #Sandblaster #BlastingPot #MachineTeardown #HeavyTools #PTFETape #AirCompressor #WorkshopProblems #MediaBlasting #Dolomite #BlockedNozzle #ToolTime #EngineeringFix #DailyVlog #RealLifeVlog #BehindTheScenes #SatisfyingFix

This Building IS Falling Apart | NIGHTMARE Few Days, LEAKING Gutter & Faience Cleaning Problems
Join me today in sunny Cardiff, Wales, as I take you around the incredible 750-year-old Bishop’s Palace, built in 1266 and now undergoing vital conservation work. This Grade I listed scheduled monument has suffered major damage from vegetation, ivy growth, root systems, collapsing masonry, and centuries of weather — and we’re restoring it stone by stone.In this video, I give you a quick site walkthrough showing:The South West Tower and the massive tree threatening the structureHow ivy has pushed masonry out and how we carefully remove itWhy every loose stone must be numbered, catalogued, and reinstatedAreas needing masonry consolidation, repointing, and root removalHow we use tracing frames to rebuild walls exactly as they wereClearing years of vegetation and rubble build-upThe collapsed arch and fireplace requiring specialist restorationThe original doors being taken back to the workshop for repairWe’ve been on site for a few weeks, working closely with Cardiff Council and CADW, and the lads are gearing up for a full 3-week push. This is the type of heritage conservation work I love — hands-on with history, bringing a 13th-century monument back to life.If you’re into historic building conservation, stonemasonry, restoration work, archaeology, or heritage craft, you’ll enjoy this behind-the-scenes look at how we protect these ancient structures.Share this Video with friends and family: https://youtu.be/4DkFSKM_yh8 Join our Channel - You can subscribe to our channel below. http://www.youtube.com/user/UKRestorationServices?sub_confirmation=1UK Restoration Services Playlist's Carpentry & Joinery: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_kl7NjslizGYzEAg6DHSTR5y Lime Work: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_klwopXzJnEOCkI2VxsrHWIG Roofing: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_kkCH8gTps-w3Lisd5V6520k Structural Repairs: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_knSGKjiQYGqTd0uGc_SLHj6 Restoration How-To's: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_kmUndOU26Hz8b97Ewa5zs6V The Farm: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_klq9DF6zWr93-znH7nXoN2t Plant & Equipment: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQ68cfRHD_kn_wU_5d5m3FsHiQSUJ9oz0Website & Contact Website - https://www.restoration-services.uk.com Email - media@restoration-services.uk.com #Restoration #BuildingRestoration #Stonemasonry #HeritageConservation #BishopsPalace #Cardiff #Wales #HistoricRestoration #AncientBuildings #Grade1Listed #ScheduledMonument #MasonryRepair #HistoricWales #ConservationWork #Stonework
