Project Description

Project description – Large single storey rear extension and kitchen installation with structural alterations to remove the rear wall of the original house.

Due to the sloping nature of the site and in order to achieve a vaulted ceiling, there are 2 steps down into the extension. We needed to liase with Southern Water to gain a ‘Build Over Agreement’ as there was a public sewer on the site.

The build was constructed using a timber frame to ensure a larger internal floor space.
