Here is a job we have just completed in Fifth Avenue, York. The customer wanted a bigger door opening to allow more natural light into their kitchen. With the opening we had to work with to work with the kitchen layout & the structural engineer an aluminium sliding door was the chosen option.
We propped the outer skin, inner skin & the floor joists which also sat on the inner skin. We formed a stud wall & boarded the opening allowing us to do our job & keep the property secure at all times. A steel was used for the inner skin & a heavy duty angle iron lintel was used for the outer skin.
We re used some of the bricks from the opening to build the right side out by 2 bricks which helped it to blend in better. We used new bricks to go over the lintel to get a cleaner finish & also put in the rosemary tile detail to match the rest of the property.
Inside has also been boarded & skimmed & the electric light switch & socket have been moved.
Thanks to everyone who has worked on this project & made it stress free & enjoyable.
Once again the customer is really happy with all our work which is always our aim on all of our jobs, big or small.
