Finished on time.Still standing right.
Homes, offices, commercial builds and renovations. Different scales, same rules. Here is a selection, with what the job actually involved.
Homes, offices, commercial builds and renovations. Different scales, same rules. Here is a selection, with what the job actually involved.
“A corner plot, a brutal west sun, and a client who wanted glass anyway.”
A four bedroom family home on a corner plot with a difficult sun path. We reoriented the main living volume, pushed a deep terrace across the western face and used the staircase core as a thermal buffer. Structure is RCC frame with a flat slab over the living areas to keep ceilings clean and column free.
“No lay-down area, a road that could not be blocked, eleven trades to run.”
Ground plus six commercial block on a tight urban plot. Materials were staged offsite and delivered on a fixed daily window, which kept the street clear and the programme intact. Structure went up in a staged pour sequence to keep the crane productive.
“Six villas, one crew, zero idle days.”
Six identical villas built in parallel for a single owner. We built in two waves of three, so the same trade crews rolled straight from one wave to the next without idle time. Formwork was reused across units and material orders were consolidated into single deliveries.
“A full floor fitout, executed while forty staff kept working on it.”
The floor was split into three zones and worked in sequence, with staff rotating into completed areas as they opened. Sealed hoardings kept dust out. Anything loud happened before ten in the morning or after seven at night.
“A tired property that had to compete with new stock, on an old budget.”
Structural survey came first and found corroded reinforcement in two beams and failed roof waterproofing feeding damp into the top floor. Those were repaired before anything cosmetic started. Then services were fully replaced and interiors rebuilt with finishes rated for heavy hospitality traffic.
“Another firm said yes. We checked the columns first.”
An owner wanted to add a floor to a thirty year old building. Assessment showed the existing foundations and column reinforcement could not carry it as designed. We designed a retrofit: column jacketing, foundation strengthening and a lighter structural system for the new floor to reduce imposed load.
“A first-time developer who needed the numbers to work as much as the building.”
We ran value engineering at design stage and found savings in slab thickness and steel sizing without touching safety margins. Interiors were standardised across unit types to consolidate procurement. Weekly cost reporting kept the client ahead of every decision.
Bring us the plot, the plan or the problem. We will tell you honestly what it takes.
