FROM SIDE GARAGE TO FAMILY KITCHEN 🏡

This Downend project was about much more than one room. We converted the side garage into a new kitchen, freed up the old kitchen area for family use, reworked the existing rear extension, and brought the ground floor together as a more connected space. A new downstairs shower room and WC completed the layout.

Swipe through to see how the different parts of the home came together.

🔨 NO REAR ACCESS. NO PROBLEM.

This Bristol rear extension presented a real challenge from day one—there was no vehicle access to the back of the property.

Every piece of material had to be carried in through the house, and every bit of rubble carried back out the same way.

The family remained living at the property throughout the build, so we created a temporary kitchenette and carefully protected the access route to help keep everyday life as normal as possible.

From strip-out, foundations and structural steelwork through to the new roof, underfloor heating, screeding and finished open-plan kitchen diner, the Skookum team managed the entire project from start to finish.

The family told us they were nervous before the work began. Eighteen months later, this is what they had to say:

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“Steve, James and the team were great throughout the process of planning and building our extension. Friendly, straightforward with communication, and clearly very knowledgeable. Any worries we had regarding undertaking such a project were dispelled by having Skookum’s involved. 18 months on we are enjoying living in the space they created.”

🏠 THINKING ABOUT OPENING UP YOUR HOME?

Here are just a few of our projects where we’ve helped clients create more space, improve the flow of their home and completely transform the way the ground floor works.

From carefully forming structural openings and installing substantial steelwork, through to the finished kitchen, dining and living spaces — we manage the whole process from structure to finish.

Whether it’s removing walls between existing rooms, opening the rear of a property into a new extension, or creating a large open-plan family space, getting the structure, support and steelwork right from the outset is key.

The steelwork might disappear when the job is finished — but it’s what makes spaces like these possible.

ANOTHER SKOOKUM TRANSFORMATION 🏡🔨

A return visit for this lovely family in Bromley Heath, Bristol — this time for a substantial wrap-around extension and complete ground-floor transformation.

The works included a new wrap-around extension, major structural alterations, a new open-plan kitchen and dining area, partial garage conversion, new downstairs shower room, rooflights, new windows and doors, plus new flooring throughout the ground floor.

Swipe through to see the transformation from the major structural and groundwork stages right through to the finished family space. ➡️

One part we’re particularly proud of — the family remained living in the property throughout the works. Careful planning and sequencing allowed us to keep the home functioning while carrying out a project of this scale.

It’s always great to be invited back by an existing customer — and even better to see a transformation like this come together.

WHAT A TRANSFORMATION! 🔨🏡✨

Swipe through to see this Bristol project go from BEFORE → DURING → AFTER.

This was far more than just a new kitchen — a complete transformation of the ground floor, opening up the property to create a fantastic kitchen, dining and living space while carefully retaining the original character of the home.

From the structural alterations and steelwork through to the kitchen, herringbone brick flooring, oak detailing, restored stained glass, period features and final finishes — Skookum managed the transformation from start to finish.

We absolutely love the finished result. The combination of the original Victorian features with the new open-plan layout has completely changed the way this home looks and feels.

BEFORE ➡️ DURING ➡️ AFTER 🏠

A great transformation from one of our completed projects in Bristol.

This loft conversion involved stripping the existing roof right back and creating the new structure using a purpose-designed lightweight steel framing system — forming the new floor, roof and dormer structure.

The progress photos really show what goes into a project like this before you ever see the finished result.

From exposed steelwork to a fully formed and weather-tight new living space — a fantastic transformation and a great way of unlocking the potential of an existing home.
