Project overview

We were delighted to be entrusted by Ed and Alice with the construction of their new home, a timber frame kit build combining traditional materials with a contemporary finish.

The exterior featured a combination of rendered blockwork and locally sourced larch cladding, which we milled in-house to meet the project's exact specifications. The roof was finished with durable, plastic-coated box profile sheeting.

One of the main challenges was the site's ground conditions. Topographical surveying identified significant depths of peat, which had to be excavated to expose suitable ground before construction could begin.

Once this initial challenge was overcome, the project progressed smoothly. Our team's experience, combined with Ed and Alice's positive and collaborative approach, made this a particularly enjoyable build to be involved in.

The project was completed in just 10 months, culminating in the handover of the keys to two very happy homeowners.
