The Project

We are proud to have completed this beautiful new single-storey extension in Gerrards Cross.

The client appointed our residential team to construct a single-storey extension which would extend their existing kitchen into a large kitchen /dining room. In addition, extensive groundworks to the garden and patio areas were also completed.

Works started by removing 350m3 of soil from the rear of the property to reduce the height of the garden. Due to poor ground conditions, we had to pile the foundations of the new extension to the structural engineers’ design. The new extension was then built to a high specification with two sets of 3m x1m skylights to bring in additional natural light, and two sets of 4m sliding doors to really open up the rear of the property. With new steelworks being installed we were able to knock through to the original dining area, which turned the area into a large open-plan kitchen/dining room.

Underfloor heating was installed throughout the kitchen/dining room as well as in the existing utility room along with air conditioning. A new high-spec kitchen was fitted along with a drop-down bulkhead to mirror the newly installed kitchen island and tiling was laid throughout all areas. Working to the lighting designer’s specification a new Rako system was installed to work with the lighting.

Outside, the rear garden had new retaining walls installed along with steps leading onto the lawn area. A new wrap-around patio was installed using the same tiles as inside the property and the new retaining walls were also tiled to finish off the patio works. We then leveled out 430m2 of the rear garden and laid new turf with stepping stones. Lighting was installed to illuminate the garden area and the large oak tree to finish off a stunning extension and garden project.

The client was overjoyed with the way the project ran and the high-quality works that were carried out. Equally, our Residential team thoroughly enjoyed working on this project.
