From the Ground Up – #1

Welcome to the start of something a little different.

From the Ground Up is our way of showing you what really happens on site. No glossy brochure shots, just honest, week-by-week updates on the projects we’re currently building.

We want to show you how these spaces are built. The craft. The detail. The ideas behind them. Whether you’re planning your own project or just curious how it all comes together, you’re in the right place.

From foundations being dug. To tiled roofs going on. There has been plenty of activity across our sites this week. In this first edition we are taking you behind the scenes on three live projects. Each at a different stage and with its own exciting progress.

• Planning has just been approved for this clean, simple lean-to structure.
• The footings are now dug and poured, with matching brickwork built below house level.
• Access was tricky, but materials are on site and ready to go.
• Even for a modest conservatory, we always build it right. Proper footings, damp course, and thick insulation for year-round comfort.

• Foundations and brickwork are complete, with fitting due to start next week.
• We’ve matched the brickwork below the blocks to blend seamlessly with the house, and a crisp modern render will follow once fitting is complete.
• Full-filled cavity walls mean this new space will be warm, quiet, and usable all year round.

• In Worthing, the base and walls are now complete on this compact but highly functional rear extension.
• With 450mm dwarf walls and perfectly matched brickwork, it’s designed to tie in beautifully with the main house.
• A raised parapet wall at the back lets us push out further, maximising every inch of usable space.

That’s a Wrap on Week 1

That wraps up our very first edition of From the Ground Up! Each week, we’ll be sharing real progress from the homes we’re building. Whether it’s digging footings, fitting roofs, or adding those final touches.
