  • A full house remodel is a complete upgrade of your property, carried out in clear stages to ensure everything runs smoothly and meets building standards.

    1.⁠ ⁠Planning & Design

    We begin by understanding your goals, producing layouts, and agreeing on a clear scope, budget, and programme.

    2.⁠ ⁠Strip-Out

    The property is taken back to a shell by removing old fixtures, finishes, and services so we can start fresh.

    3.⁠ ⁠Structural Work

    We carry out any major changes like removing walls, installing steel beams, or building extensions to create your new layout.

    4.⁠ ⁠First Fix

    All hidden systems are installed, including electrics, plumbing, heating, and insulation.

    5.⁠ ⁠Plastering

    Walls and ceilings are rebuilt and finished, preparing the space for decoration.

    6.⁠ ⁠Second Fix & Finishes

    We install kitchens, bathrooms, flooring, joinery, and complete all decorating—bringing the design to life.

    7.⁠ ⁠Handover

    We carry out final checks, resolve any snags, clean the property, and hand everything over ready to use.

  • A loft conversion transforms your unused roof space into a functional living area such as a bedroom, office, or en-suite.

    1.⁠ ⁠Planning & Design

    2.⁠ ⁠Structural Work

    We strengthen the floor, install steel beams if required, and form the new structure, including dormers or roof alterations.

    All hidden services are installed—electrics, plumbing, heating, and insulation within the new space.

    4.⁠ ⁠Internal Build

    We construct walls, ceilings, and stairs, shaping the new room and connecting it to the rest of the house.

    5.⁠ ⁠Plastering

    The space is plastered and prepared, ready for final finishes.

    1.⁠ ⁠Planning & Design

    We develop your layout, confirm budget, and handle any planning permission and building regulation requirements.

    2.⁠ ⁠Groundworks & Foundations

    We prepare the site, excavate, and install foundations to support the new structure.

    3.⁠ ⁠Structural Build

    Walls, floors, and roof are constructed, including any steelwork required. The extension is then made watertight (roof, windows, doors).

    4.⁠ ⁠First Fix

  • A swimming pool installation creates a fully functional outdoor space, designed for relaxation, exercise, and entertainment.

    1.⁠ ⁠Planning & Design

    We design the pool layout, confirm size, depth, and finishes, and handle any permissions or ground assessments required.

    2.⁠ ⁠Groundworks & Excavation

    The area is set out and excavated, preparing the ground and forming the pool shell base.

    3.⁠ ⁠Structural Shell

    We construct the pool structure (concrete, block, or pre-formed shell), including waterproofing and structural reinforcement.

    4.⁠ ⁠First Fix (Services)

    All pipework, drainage, filtration systems, and electrical connections (pumps, lighting, heating) are installed.

    We develop a layout based on your needs—patios, lawns, planting, levels—and agree on materials, budget, and scope.

    2.⁠ ⁠Groundworks & Preparation

    We clear the site, carry out any excavation, set levels, and install drainage or retaining structures where required.
