From first call to handover
A renovation doesn't have to be complicated. We work in six clear steps, with firm agreements and one point of contact.
How a project unfolds
- 01
Introduction
You call or message us about your plan. We ask a few questions and schedule an on-site visit, usually within a week.
- 02
Survey and advice
We measure up, look at the existing situation and think along with you. Sometimes a different layout turns out to be more practical or cheaper than you expected.
- 03
Tailored quote
You receive an itemised quote: what we do and what it costs, per item. No surprises afterwards.
- 04
Planning
Once agreed, we set the start date and duration. You know exactly when each part of the work takes place.
- 05
Execution
We keep going until it is finished. At the end of every day we tidy up, so you are not living on a building site.
- 06
Handover
We walk through the work together. Anything you notice is fixed before we hand back the keys.
How an extension takes shape
We keep you informed throughout construction. This is what an extension looks like at each stage.
01Foundations
Reinforcement, formwork and an insulated floor as a solid base.
02Shell
Brickwork, steel and roof beams. The structure takes shape.
03Frames & roof
Doors and roof windows in, roof on: the extension is watertight.
04Handover
Fit-out, electrics and finishing. Ready to live in.
