Finishing Touches, Final Snags & Preparing for the Build

This week we’re completing a standout orangery, finalising a roof upgrade, and preparing for a new build to begin. Across Bradley Stoke, Crawley, and Horsham, projects are at key transition stages.

We are back!

Bradley Stoke, Bristol

Orangery Nearing Completion

  • After some weather delays, this project is now coming to completion – transforming a redundant corner into a stunning new orangery.
  • A super-insulated flat roof has been installed, complete with a large lantern to flood the space with natural light.
  • The dark chocolate brickwork contrasts beautifully with the white frames, creating a clean, modern finish.
  • Added details include a custom cat step for easy access and an extended extractor through the fascia to retain full kitchen functionality.
  • Keep an eye out for final photos in May/June.
Crawley, West Sussex

Final Checks Before Handover

  • Fitting is now complete on this conservatory roof upgrade, with just a missing roof cap identified during our snagging process.
  • Boarding has started, with plastering scheduled over the weekend to bring the space to a move-in-ready finish.
  • This is exactly why we carry out a full snag walkthrough – ensuring everything is picked up before final handover.
  • And for those wondering – all site waste will be removed by our disposal team, with a full clean carried out so the space is ready to move into once complete.
  • Look out for this one on our case studies page next month.
Horsham, West Sussex

Everything In Place Before Work Begins

  • A major delivery has arrived on site, marking the start of this exciting orangery project.
  • Bricks and internal steel systems have been delivered in advance, ensuring all structural elements are signed off and ready for building control before work begins.
  • A goal post system will be installed around the bifold doors, adding both strength and a high-quality finish.
  • Keep an eye on this one as it starts to take shape over the coming weeks.
