The next transformation is underway... this time in Walthamstow, London.
These are the before and current progress photos of a project we've been asked to carry out for previous clients. It's always a great feeling when clients come back to us for their next project.
From the outside, this may not look like a huge extension, but don't let that fool you. This is a high-spec refurbishment with significant structural alterations, multiple knock-throughs and a complete reconfiguration of most of the ground floor. Every detail has been carefully designed by an award-winning architect to create a home that blends seamlessly with the surrounding conservation area while introducing a clean, contemporary feel.
The finished result is going to be something really special, but first we've got to battle the London clay!
At the moment we're carrying out the underpinning works, with the first sections of foundations excavated to an average depth of around 1.5 metres. Between the garden clearance, reducing ground levels, structural pad foundations and the first sections of footings, we've already removed over 55 tonnes of material from site.
Working in London is a completely different challenge. Every day is about planning logistics, organising deliveries, managing parking restrictions, keeping neighbours happy and, of course, trying to dodge the traffic wardens!
It's still early days, but we're looking forward to sharing the progress over the coming weeks. Keep an eye on the page to see this one take shape.
