Renovation and Conversion

Transforming the old to the new 

To give you a sense of our approach to our building process we present a more detailed view on how we completed a renovation and conversion. The work was done on a private residence where the owner took the opportunity to make a full scale conversion.

This meant we worked on both:

• renovating the house; and
• landscaping the garden

The clear objective was to deliver a full transformation of the property. The images we took of the work will show you the changes taking place.

We have divided the renovation process into 4 stages, with a link to the relevant page below:

• Starting the project 
• Setting up the structure
• Landscaping the garden
• The finished project​​

Background to the scope of the project

The existing home and garden was a standard suburban home which offered warmth, comfort and a good-sized garden.
The new home was to have a completely different look. Going from a standard suburban detached to a modern home with:

• open space living
• extended space on the ground floor
• extending the upper floor and replacing the brick frontage
• a garden designed to be enjoyed and lived in
