Planning Process
House required extensive renovation. Planning and design carried out for further extensions, namely L-shape dormer loft for a 2 bedroom ensuite, kitchen extension and lounge extension. Adding significant sqft to the house.
Time Management
We have allocated approximately 240 days to complete this major project. This was determined by the sum of all contractor’s maximum estimates.
Materials Research
To ensure prompt completion and correct materials, we did materials research to match the allocated budget. Most of the materials are know to us due to previous projects, hence it was relatively fast
Clearing Out
Once previous tenants moved out we booked in removal and disposal teams to clear out the house.
Contractors
The first contractors for the project went in March 2021, the project is ongoing and due.
