So we have started ANOTHER barn conversion this week in the beautiful Derbyshire countryside 🀩 complete with resident sheep πŸ‘

This one is a difficult project in MANY ways! πŸ€” the large trees close by, a steel portal frame that is wonkier than Quasimodos coat hanger and some awkward planners that are hellbent on keeping as much of the original building as possible! 😬

But with a cracking architect and structural engineer, a client who is motivated but also relaxed in all the right ways and a developer (us!!) who love a good challenge πŸ€¦πŸ»β€β™‚οΈπŸ˜‚ this wonky old barn that housed livestock years ago will be transformed into an amazing home in a highly desirable location 😍

Follow us to keep tabs on this build πŸ‘ŒπŸ» it’s going to be another good one πŸ™ŒπŸ»

Some great progress on the barn build πŸ‘ŒπŸ»πŸ€™πŸ»

βœ… all of the steels are now in apart from 2 x cranked steels that need templating above the balcony and gallery landing to create huge windows!!

βœ… the first floor joists are in and completely decked out

βœ… all studded walls are up both on the ground floor and second floor Inc racking walls πŸ‘ŒπŸ»

The next steps are to erect a full scaffold wrap, install a new standing seam steel roof, windows and external finishings to get completely watertight once decisions have been made πŸ™ŒπŸ»

A little sneak peak video from the barn job 🀩

The first floor is all in πŸ™ŒπŸ» πŸ•ΊπŸ» we will do a full walk through video when all knock throughs are done and we have got more time!… but in the meanwhile just get a glimpse of these views from the balcony area 😍

This is going to be one grand house πŸ‘ŒπŸ»

A nice 40sq mtr annexe we have recently started in Leicestershire! πŸ‘ŒπŸ»

We had to pull 1.8mtr footings on the right hand side and step back up to 1.2mtrs on the left due to a mains drain running through the boundary feeding the estate!! 😳

But all footings poured, bricked up to DPC, block and beam installed, 150mm insulation laid, UFH pipes installed and a 90mm top layer of screed to FFL.

Next step is getting the shell up after the half term holidays πŸ™ŒπŸ»πŸ˜Ž

Have fun everyone! 🍺

Some solid progress on the barn job this week! πŸ™ŒπŸ» 😎

βœ… sub slab laid
βœ… DPM installed
βœ… 150mm celotex installed
βœ… another layer of DPM
βœ… 1.4 KILOMETRES of underfloor heating installed! 😳
βœ… 8mm steel mesh installed everywhere
βœ… and finally a 120mm of liquid screed pumped in!

We now have a nice solid base to work off so the next steps are to install all of the steel work needed for the balcony and new openings! πŸ’ͺ🏻

Well the weathers been fun! πŸ˜‘πŸ€₯

We have managed to finally catch up on the barn conversion project around the biblical weather!

βœ… Internal walls built up to DPC
βœ… 2 x steel columns installed to take floor joists and balcony area
βœ… internal drainage is in
βœ… a 200mm sub base of well compacted of type 1 stone has been laid..

Next steps are to get some more block work up, insulate floors, install underfloor heating, install steel mesh above and cast the finished slab πŸ‘ŒπŸ»β€¦. Oh and carry on praying for some dry weather πŸ™πŸ»

We’ve Just started a grand barn conversion build for some amazing clients with big visions!! 🀩

The Weather hasn’t been kind to us over the last week or so at all but internal footings have been excavated and poured πŸ™ŒπŸ»

Now it’s just the mammoth task of removing over 100cubic metres of earth ready for the floor slab build up 😬

This one’s going to be a fun one!
