    Extensions don’t have to be grand or big

    By admin | Uncategorized | 0 comment | 4 September, 2017 | 0

    A recent project involved re-building a small porch/extension.  What was a run-down porch quickly became a usable space.

    We removed the old rotten cladding, frame and insulation, and replaced it all with new wood.  New insulation was also added to keep it warm in winter and cool in summer.  A new roof was also added to keep it water- and weather-proof.

    The customer is delighted with the end result:

    “I’ve been meaning to get the porch extension re-done for a few years but thought it would be a massive undertaking.  Mark came out to check the level of work required, plus materials that were needed, and then rebuilt it.  I’m delighted with it now, it opens onto my garden so is now a great usable space!”

    No matter how small your project (or how big!), we can help.  Contact Mark today for a free estimate or general chat about your requirements.  We offer a range of carpentry and building services including:

    • Garden cabins or buildings
    • Decking and fencing
    • Extensions
    • Door fitting and re-hanging
    • Wood flooring
    • Bespoke cupboards and units
    • Commercial carpentry including 1st and 2nd fixes and cut roofs
