Client Brief

Client had some initial architectural drawings but it didn't quite meet the family's requirements. We reconfigured the layout to accommodate a more open plan feel. They required the ground floor to be completely remodelled including a new stairs, and also for the garage to be converted in a study room. They also wanted their driveway redone.

Project Description

We gutted the entire ground floor to its basic structure, removing some walls, and inserting new walls. A steel beam and two goal posts was installed due to the width of the new structural opening. This was a challenging build, with removal of existing support that included precast concrete and a steel beam. With a small access and a sloping drive, a large crane was used to lower the new beam into position, to then allow for the installation of 2 steel support posts which was installed on 2 concrete pad-stones. The entire floor was also electrically rewired, installed a new heating system along with a new kitchen, bathroom and shower room. New drainage was required at the front of the house before we laid a new driveway.
