It's been tough, with the weather and we're having to do Sunday shifts to keep the job moving, but it's all coming good now.

Front of house rework, driveway being Laid on reinfirced concrete base, using lovely sawn, tumbled and honed 55mm cobbles, with a distinctive edge.

Due to the clients car needing security, we've installed an assist lift security bollard, the stainless steel finish really fits in well.

The concrete reinforced hollow block retaining wall is to be clad with stone, black coping stones, steps to be laid with driveway materials. This thing is never moving!

The walls and the drive have had extensive drainage solutions, due to the property being on a slope and suffering from water damage.

This one is special, and unlike block paving, will be guaranteed for life 🙏🏻

More photos on completion.

Another roof saved from collapsing.

Working with my engineers detailed drawings and calculations.

It's was a tough one to do as we had no access, so all materials had to go up a set of stairs with a turn half way, and through a loft hatch! And successfully fit within the space.

With our Careful planning and precise ex*****on, this roof is as stable as can be.

What a tough day today was, the team managed to get 6 steels into a loft space. Up a turned flight of stairs through a loft hatch.

Logistically coming in through the roof or loft window was a no go.

Which is why we went with a block and tackle technique.

What a day, 25 meters reaching cherry picker to fix a 500 year old chimney on a listed building.

Scaffolding was not an option.

We have used old building techniques/materials and reclaimed bricks..

Tomorrow will be haunching and finishing up.

Another emergency job underway, here we are installing 8 spliced steels with stiffener plates, to support this sagging roof.

We shall install padstones, fit steels then work purlin supports and cross bracing in to prevent collapse.

Never a dull moment.
