We haven’t manage to post anything for a while so here are a few of the smaller projects we have been doing over the last we months.

The first lot of photos is some fencing we done along with replacing the double gates onto the customers drive way and also the side gate.

The next job was a retaining wall with stone facing. With rebar going through the 9” hollow blocks and being filled with concrete, the stone was then laid in front.

Next we have a single story block extension taking it up from dpc to it being water tight minus the windows.

Here we have during and after photos of a extension we finished just after Christmas.

With the foundations being built up ground we had to dig nearly 2M to get to solid enough ground for the footings to be poured, This also made the build change to a block and beam floor so the floor could never sink / crack over years to come.

With that out the way the walls flew up finishing it off with a flat roof using EDPM rubber with a lovely sky light on top.

With the bi-folds in we took the original sliding doors out installed some RSJ’s to make the opening bigger to make the rooms flow.

Haven’t got round to posting much lately but we will be posting what we’ve been getting up to over the next few days.

We had a roof which was leaking, after investigating where the water was coming into the property, we discussed the options with the customer. They decided to have the section of the house stripped due to the old bitumen felt starting to perish in many locations.

With new felt, battens and the broken tiles replaced, we then prepped and plastered the ceiling inside.

Here we have a flat roof we recently replaced which had been leaking for a while. The customer tried preventing it by covering it with a tarpaulin but after a while the weather got the better.

We stripped it all off and replaced the timber boards for the new EPDM rubber roof system to be stuck too.
Replaced the lead and fascia capping and reusing the gutter as requested by the customer.

Here are some before during and after photos.

Here’s some before, during and after photos of some decking we recently laid.

We started by taking the bushes back to the fence line as requested. With the garden on a slope we postcreated the timber posts in and then levelled the decking off. Giving us a level platform we was then able to lay the decking and insert the trellis. With decking boards around the front and sides to finish it off nicely.

Here we have a old looking dormer that over time the wood panelling had started to fall apart and also the old felt flat roof system had started to cause problems allowing water into the property.

We stripped it all back and installed a new EPDM rubber roof system, and installed new PVC shiplap cladding onto the sides and front of the dormer.

This week we’ve been getting on with the render on the extension, we also took down a chimney on a different property and covered the area back over with slates to match in with the roof.

Here’s some photos of some of the stuff we done this week.

Whilst the plaster has been drying we have been focusing on the outside of the build,
we have got the scratch coat of render on and also on the same property some old render had failed over many years so we have taken the old off to replace it.
The cloaked verge tiles have been picked up and fitted which really does finish the roof off nicely.
With the doors and windows now In it really is looking smart! We’re looking forward to finishing the rendering to give the extension a nice finish to match the house.

Here are some photos of the work

On our current job the roof is on!! Just waiting for the cloaked verge tiles to be delivered to fit them. With that and dressing the lead to suit the tiles the roof will be complete.

The facia and soffit is going on with the detail in-suit with the rest of the house which will be finished very soon.

With the electrician coming in to wire up the lights and sockets we then insulated in between the rafters and then more insulation under that to comply with building regulations.

With building control coming this morning to sign off on the build so far we will tape the joins of the insulation and start plaster-boarding the ceiling.

Our current job is coming on very nicely.
Before there was a conservatory but it was just too hot in the summer and cold in the winter so the space didn’t get used as much as it could be. With that gone the footings had to be dug out to be made deeper for a single story extension

Here are some photos during the build and where were at at the moment

Back in the summer we arrived at this property to remove the old and damaged fencing which was covered in ivy on both side of the garden and replaced it with a much longer lasting solution with concrete posts and with higher panels for more privacy in the garden.
