It does mean our mortar will be whiter this time but hopefully that is a good contrast to the brick as this batch is darker than before. I dont think they are taking any chances this time. Our Build Thread - JG king Memphis Re: Our second home-JG King Bricks Down 762Dec 07, 2016 8:42 pm Wowwee bricking started today amd they arent mucking around! Looking really clean at the moment and a lot of progress. I had to laugh at the reject brick pile it was pretty big I think the brick supplier has some issues... If they keep rejecting bricks at this rate they'll have to order more.

It is strange seeing them start from where they finished last time feels like they are going the wrong way round.... Which is silly cause they arent. Our Build Thread - JG king Memphis Re: Our second home-JG King Bricks back up 766Dec 08, 2016 6:55 pm Great progress again today even with the crappy weather these guys are smashing it out and it looks good too. So far I think the whiter mortar looks good.

Our Build Thread - JG king Memphis Re: Our second home-JG King Bricks back up 769Dec 08, 2016 7:51 pm New brick walls looking on point 😁 Are you pleased with the redo? My Homeone Thread - Re: Our second home-JG King Bricks back up 770Dec 08, 2016 7:57 pm So far yes it looks quite on point. Hopefully it continues that way. I am still very nerves until the brick wash happens. Our Build Thread - JG king Memphis Re: Our second home-JG King Bricks back up 771Dec 08, 2016 8:01 pm surtees So far yes it looks quite on point. Hopefully it continues that way. I am still very nerves until the brick wash happens. I'm sure they will have it all perfect this time around. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you ? My Homeone Thread - Re: Our second home-JG King Bricks back up 772Dec 08, 2016 8:05 pm Yes me too they are taking every precaution to ensure it is done right. Our Build Thread - JG king Memphis Re: Our second home-JG King Bricks back up 774Dec 09, 2016 6:33 pm Great progress again today. The bricks are differently darker this time but the lighter mortar helps.

Im still in shock at how much they have bricked in 3 days. It took over a month for the last brickies to brick the house. Re: Our second home-JG King Bricks back up 778Dec 12, 2016 7:09 am Brickies are gunning it, really good progress and looking like a neat job too. My Homeone Thread - Re: Our second home-JG King Bricks back up 779Dec 13, 2016 9:55 pm Progress continues at a good pace they will be finished in the next day or two. In some of the photos you can see the amount of bricks they have rejected and aren't using, they are being picky with the quality control. The blend finish and mortar lines look good.
