Wimbledon Park

Side and rear extension

The project.

Planning rules set a strict height limit on this single-storey rear and side extension, so to keep full head height inside we excavated the ground a metre down and tanked the new external walls with waterproof membrane.

The result is an open-plan kitchen, diner and lounge behind 8 metres of bi-fold doors, under a zinc roof. The whole job completed on time in 15 weeks.

From start to finish.

“Neil recently completed our rear and side extension. We could not be happier with the end result. He was very punctual and kept us well informed with daily updates regarding progress. I have no doubt that the quality of workmanship was excellent. I would definitely recommend Neil if you are considering a building project similar to ours.”
