🏡 THATCH TO SPANISH SLATE — COMPLETE ROOF TRANSFORMATION

A major roof transformation completed by the team at Cannington Construction.

The existing thatch roof was carefully stripped back, allowing us to expose the existing structure and start the roof from a clean slate.

🔨 The process:
• Existing thatch completely stripped
• New rafters cut and installed
• Roof structure insulated to modern standards
• New roofing build-up installed
• Finished with premium Spanish slate
• Detailed with careful attention to the traditional character of the property

A challenging project requiring accurate setting out, skilled carpentry and precise slate installation, combining modern insulation and performance with a traditional, high-quality finish.

Another roof transformation completed from structure through to finish. 👌

These bespoke oak internal doors were designed and fitted to create a clean, seamless finish throughout the property. Featuring subtle vertical groove detailing and complemented by solid oak linings, the doors sit perfectly within the surrounding architecture, giving each opening a premium, furniture-grade appearance.

Rather than relying on standard mouldings and architraves, the oak linings create crisp shadow lines and a contemporary finish that really showcases the quality of the timber. Combined with the matte black ironmongery, the result is a timeless balance between traditional craftsmanship and modern design.

Every lining, frame and door set was carefully installed, aligned and finished to ensure consistent margins, smooth operation and a flawless end result.

Quality joinery isn’t just about the door itself. It’s about every component working together to create something exceptional.

Burnt larch done properly 🔥

This entrance refurbishment was all about creating a bold, high-end finish using charred larch cladding to completely transform the space. The timber was carefully burnt to enhance the natural grain, giving the entrance a deep textured finish while also improving durability and weather resistance.

Paired with integrated warm LED lighting done by Julian Hill Electrical. The result is a clean modern look with real character. Especially once the light hits the grain detail in the evenings.

✔️ Burnt larch timber cladding
✔️ Enhanced natural grain finish
✔️ Integrated LED lighting
✔️ Bespoke entrance refurbishment
✔️ Durable exterior finish built to last

Small entrance. Massive difference.
