Past project: Shower room with double counter top wash basins.

This was one of our past past projects, turning this dated unloved bathroom into something a little bit more special. We created a new shower room with double counter top wash basins on a solid oak work surface. The original floorboards where sanded and lacquered to create a much warmer feeling room. The old cast iron bath was removed and a new shower cubicle installed with a modern glass fronted electric shower.

Past project; dilapidated Oriel window repair and rendered.

After all the render was removed we had to install new timbers to  restructure the frame and strengthen the window bay before insulating  and reboarding. Finally, we rendered the bay ready for the the structure to be re-painted.

Guest bedroom en-suite bathroom installation

Guest bedroom en-suite bathroom installation. This project was one we had the pleasure to build a few months ago. A simply designed, minimalist guest en-suite bathroom. The old shower, toilet and basin were removed and new plumbing installed. Damaged walls were repaired from previous leaks and then the room was fully tanked. We then tiled the bathroom walls with blue glass mosaic tiles with a white grout and the floor with a hand made stone tile with hand painted designs. A quality chrome thermostatic retro shower was installed complete with hand wand. A Fired Earth stone basin on a solid oak pedestal stand was fitted which matched the oak toilet seat and out the wall chrome taps completed the bathroom.

Country cottage style kitchen installation

This is another one of our past project we have completed. A country cottage style kitchen installation in a village near Hull. The original kitchen was well and truly past its best with water damage to units and worktops.   Our clients loved the country style feel of the original so it was decided to install a more up to date country cottage style  kitchen in its place with integrated appliances. The worktops were solid oak which after installation, oiled them to give then a lovely glossy finish and make them water and stain resistant. The 1000 mm  extractor was matched to the easy clean black glass splash back and creates a contrasting impact. The flooring we used was a moisture resistant slate effect laminate which makes the matt cream kitchen stand out and the focal point is the lovely Belfast sink. The kitchen walls and ceiling were  painted  and […]

Bespoke pet run enclosure

Bespoke pet run enclosure for Poppy rabbit and a new rescue bunny Finn. This project was to build an enclosure and sleeping area for two bunnies. Rabbit hutches tend to be very small,confined boxes with the rabbit not been able to run around  or get to stand on its back legs. Sadly most pets do not even get to leave these far from adequate boxes. Our project was to remedy this with an enclosure more fitting to a rabbits needs. The area was first shuttered off and  a  concrete base laid to accommodate the new run. The enclosure was then built, a run area of 8 feet x 6 feet  with two separate areas for sleeping and toilet.
