Another project completed, a new contemporary style extension to provide extra family living space, replacing the original conservatory. Simple, modern, efficient.

WANTED! I need someone who can weld up a couple of bespoke lead flashings. I can get everything folded, I just need a lead welder! The job is in Tatworth.

At last, my perseverance through all the wet weather has paid off, the roof is fully weather tight! 🥳 It’s always a good moment to get the EPDM finished and roof light fitted! (And before anyone says anything, they’re temporary cappings fitted until the final ones can be installed after rendering is completed! 😉)

It’s not everyday I look a chinook pilot in the eye……especially when the pilot is doing his day job!! 🤣

I require a brickie or two in November in Lyme Regis, nothing too taxing, around 35m/2 of single outer skin blockwork around a timber frame extension. Drop me a message or call me on 07887 943220 if you think you could spare a few days. I accept availability is dependant on the weather.

It’s always satisfying to complete a project, this one isn’t necessary big but it’s provided its own challenges. Accessibility proved tricky for the digger work, the ground conditions made installing ground screws hard work, and the odd shape and 3 dimensional nature of the space meant a bit of head scratching to work out how to best use the space. But the end result compliments the garden perfectly, will be low maintainance, it makes use of an otherwise dead space and (most importantly!) provides an excellent spot for a relaxing G&T as it’s a lovely afternoon suntrap (when the sun shines!). The client is going to paint the blockwork, and backfill the decorative gravel against the fence, and contemplate what type of ballustrade they would like. But for now, my work here is done!

Due to the sudden cancellation of our latest build project we now have unexpected availability. We cannot pull forward future contracts so whether it’s a full build, an extension, annexe or home office/garden room, we now have favourable availability. Or, if not a build project, we also have our own full joinery workshop facilities so whether you are looking for a building contractor or require joinery work please don’t hesitate to contact Brendan on 07887 943220 or [email protected] to discuss your ideas further.
Portfolio of completed projects and references available upon request.

A busy 2024 lies ahead…..

Starting the year as we mean to go on! 🥳

Project type: New Build Annexe

We are thrilled to announce that this beautiful annexe has received planning approval! 🏡✨
Beyond the architectural triumph, it's a celebration of family. With functionality and a seamless blend of comfort and style, the design harmoniously integrates with its surroundings, embracing a rustic yet contemporary aesthetic that adds both character and warmth to the landscape.

Now onto the Building Regulation drawings 👷

Today I finished (almost!) the Uplyme extension project. This one posed some particular challenges along the way but with patient clients and the work of a great team of sub contractors to help me, we over came each obstacle. I’m very pleased with the result! The weather over the past five weeks has prevented me from finishing the outside work so the paving, back filling and dressing with topsoil will have to wait to drier conditions early in 2024. But the inside is all finished.
Thank you to those who worked with me on this one, they are as follows:
BK Excavations (groundworks)
Simon Natalie Watson (foundations)
Jason Pidgeon (plumbing and heating contractor)
Mike Bartlett (electrical contractor)
Hussey and Briggs (doors/windows)
Chris & Nathaniel Jones (plasterboarding)
Ian Pearce Plastering (plastering/rendering)
Ben and Jo of BRB Carpentry (carpentry work)
KD Design and Fabrication (steelwork)

Fingers crossed my 2024 project gains its planning permission 🤞🤞, have a great festive period everyone.
