New Build Eco-home
We were contracted to build a new eco-friendly home according to the client's specifications and plans. The project was carried out on a piece of land owned by the client.
Objectives and Challenges:
The site had a knotweed issue which required reducing the site by 3 meters to eradicate the problem. There were also logistical challenges such as achieving access to the site.
Project Description
After reducing the site, a reinforced concrete base was put in place, and retaining walls were constructed to start the build. The highly insulated property was designed to be energy efficient and had a specialised render applied to the external walls. It was a 4-story property, with a basement, ground floor, 1st floor, and an attic. The project also included the sourcing and fitting of solar energy panels, aluminium bifold doors, uPVC windows, and full mechanical and electrical works. Additionally, an external tarmac drive was installed.
Noteworthy Aspects
The project was for the construction of a new eco-friendly home. The company had to overcome logistical and environmental challenges such as the knotweed issue across the entire site. The specialised render on the external walls and the installation of solar energy panels were noteworthy aspects of the project.
