Roof Structures Rising & Quick Turnarounds on Site

This week we’re seeing builds move from structure to usable space. In Bradley Stoke, frames and roof installation are underway, in Crawley a large insulated roof is complete, and in Christchurch fitting has begun on a red-brick conservatory conversion.

See the project below!

Bradley Stokes, Bristol

Turning Structure Into Space

  • Great progress this week as frames and roof installation have begun.
  • A ¾ height wall on the left-hand side provides functional wall space while still allowing plenty of natural light as the sun moves around the garden.
  • Wide French doors are being positioned on the right to open the space up fully.
  • We discovered the house and garage weren’t perfectly square – something that happens – but a replacement frame has already been turned around and is arriving today to keep fitting on track.
Crawley, West Sussex

From Open Shell to Watertight Structure

  • A large insulated roof has now been installed on this roof-only conversion.
  • Completed in just one week and made watertight within days, we’ve been able to protect the existing base and walls.
  • The super-insulated roof transforms this space into a true year-round room, with plastering and electrics scheduled for next week.
Christchurch, Dorset

Brickwork Finished, Frames Arriving

  • Walls are now complete in a stunning red brick, giving the customer the option to paint in the future to match the house.
  • Frames have been delivered and fitting has started today, ensuring a smooth transition from brickwork to installation – keeping the overall project time shorter so the customer can move in sooner.
  • A neat step has been built from the doors down to ground level, finished with a patio slab supplied by the customer, completing this simple but highly functional conservatory conversion.
