Throwback to a great project we completed last year 👌🏼

This one was a full transformation from start to finish. Two extensions, a full refurbishment throughout and extensive landscaping works to completely reshape the property inside and out.

At this stage in the video, we were on the final push with everything prepped and ready for LVT and carpets to be installed. It’s always a quality moment where you can really see all the hard work come together.

A proper top-to-bottom job with attention to detail carried right through every phase, from groundwork to the final finishes.

We’ll dig out some finished shots of this one soon 🔥

A proper focal point to bring the whole space together 🔥

This bespoke media wall sits at the heart of the lounge area within this open plan kitchen, dining and living extension. Designed not just to stand out, but to tie the entire space together.

Finished to complement the kitchen, we’ve carried the same tones, textures and clean lines through into the lounge. The result is a seamless transition between spaces, where nothing feels out of place.

The media wall itself combines form and function, housing the TV, integrating storage and creating a strong visual centrepiece, all while keeping that clean, uncluttered look.

Careful planning of proportions, lighting and detailing ensures it works from every angle of the open plan layout. Whether you’re in the kitchen, dining area or relaxing in the lounge.

It’s these details that take an extension from good to exceptional 👌🏼

A high-end kitchen installation to finish off this extension 🔥

This one’s all about detail, design, and quality.

We completed the full extension and brought it together with this stunning bespoke kitchen, finished in rich walnut cabinetry paired with cupra slate tones and topped off with seamless solid surface worktops a proper premium feel throughout.

A standout feature has to be the walkthrough larder, cleverly designed to lead seamlessly into a hidden utility room and home office. It keeps the main space clean and minimal while adding a huge amount of practicality behind the scenes.

The flow, the materials, and the finish all come together to create a space that’s built for modern living but with a timeless, high-end look.

Another quality project delivered from start to finish 👊

If you’re planning an extension or looking to upgrade your kitchen, we’ve got you covered.

Cut Roof Installed for This Loft Conversion 🔨

Here’s a look back at the cut roof stage of this loft conversion, which we completed just before Christmas.

All of the roof structure was measured, cut and built on site, forming the framework that allows the loft space to be transformed into a functional living area. A properly built cut roof is essential for strength, accuracy and ensuring the rest of the build runs smoothly.

Since completing this stage, we’ve made great progress on the project and have already begun the internal fit out, with the loft now not far from being finished.

It’s always great to look back at these earlier stages and see how the project develops from the structural works right through to the finished space.

🔨 New Roof Complete: Extension & Loft Conversion ☀️

Another project wrapped up with a brand new cut roof installed as part of this extension and loft conversion. Built traditionally on site for strength, precision and to maximise the internal space.

This roof has been finished with Jutland composite slates, giving the classic slate appearance with excellent durability and weather resistance.

We’ve also installed flush-fit solar panels, integrated seamlessly into the roofline so they sit perfectly level with the slates. A clean, modern look while helping the property generate its own renewable energy.

The result is a strong, efficient roof structure that looks great and performs even better.

If you’re planning an extension, loft conversion or roof upgrade, get in touch with us to discuss your project.

Little progress update on this one. All oak posts machined on site, hand cut roof and finished off on top with t&g. Roofers in tomorrow to get this one tiled in then just guttering to go until the rest of the garden landscaping in spring next year. Fun one to be on as the bulk of our work is extensions, loft conversions & refurbs which we also enjoy but nice to get stuck in to some a nearly all carpentry project 🔨🔥.
