Making the Most of Dry Spells
This week we’ve made strong progress between rain showers. In Bradley Stoke, a block-and-beam base is installed, in Horsham walls are rising on a new orangery, and in Christchurch a conservatory conversion is underway.
Let’s get into it!
Building Performance From the Start
- Taking advantage of short dry spells, we’ve installed a block-and-beam floor to retain airflow from the house’s existing air vents without compromising finish.
- Brickwork is now going up, with high-quality solid insulation in the cavity to ensure warmth and long-term efficiency.
- More updates to follow as this orangery continues to take shape.
From Rain Delays to Real Progress
- After earlier weather disruption, the base is now complete and walls are rising.
- Classic orangery corner pillars are being formed, tying the new structure into the house and giving it that extension feel.
- Fitters are on site this weekend with the roof going on – more progress photos coming soon.
Old Structure Out, New Space Beginning
- The old conservatory has been removed and the new base is now being built.
- Clean red brickwork, chosen by the customer, is already going down.
- Fitting is expected next week as this upgraded space starts to come together.
