For this project, the textured tiles were used to create depth and give the room a strong focal point, while the darker fittings and simple detailing keep the overall finish sharp and modern.โฃ
โฃ
A good example of how the right combination of materials, textures and finishes can completely transform a space.โฃ

Itโ€™s always a pleasure laying the first bricks/blocks on an extension. Itโ€™s when you really start to see the project come to life.โฃ
โฃ
Itโ€™s also always a pleasure to have AHP brickwork on site with us. Itโ€™s so important to have contractors who actually care about your project the same way you do. We have been working with these guys a long time so this stage is always effortless. โฃ

One thing weโ€™ve learnt from working in St Albans is to expect the unexpected.โฃ
โฃ
With parts of the cities drainage network dating back well over 150 years, itโ€™s not unusual for there to be incomplete or sometimes completely inaccurate records of whatโ€™s underground. There had even been a drainage survey however it wasnโ€™t worth the paper it was writen on! โฃ
โฃ
On this extension, the survey showed the shared drainage leaving the property in one direction. Once we started digging, we uncovered the reality.โฃ
โฃ
Not just one drain but two! โฃ
โฃ
Even the Thames Water inspector stood on site and said, โ€œThese shouldnโ€™t be here.โ€โฃ
โฃ
That discovery meant putting our concrete pour on hold while we:โฃ
โ€ข Revised the drainage layout.โฃ
โ€ข Updated the structural calculations.โฃ
โ€ข Amended the build-over agreement.โฃ
โ€ข Completed the necessary remedial works.โฃ
โ€ข Worked closely with the architects, structural engineers and Thames Water to get everything redesigned and approved as quickly as possible.โฃ
โฃ
This is the side of construction people rarely see. Things donโ€™t always go to plan, especially when youโ€™re working around infrastructure thatโ€™s been in the ground for more than a century.โฃ
โฃ
As the main contractor, our job is to adapt, communicate with our clients, solve the problem, and keep the project moving.โฃ
โฃ
Sometimes youโ€™ve just got to build a bridgeโ€ฆ and literally get over it. โฃ

Concrete pour booked for this week. Back on track. ๐Ÿ‘Šโฃ
