“Less is more” will be the redesign theme of this gas fireplace surround. We are on a tight budget and timeline. We will remove the top cabinet, preserve the fireplace and the marble surround. Today is deconstruction. Tomorrow is trim. #fireplacemakeover #90sfireplacesurround #builtintvcabinet #fireplacesurround #fireplacedesign #demoday #fireplaceremodel #sterlingva
Happy Halloween! We often find some shocking things in heritage properties when we conduct our initial consultations. Here's some common issues we come across: Lack of ventilation: Buildings need to breathe! We often find properties using the wrong kind of paint or flooring in their buildings that over time, seals in moisture and causes damp. Poor plumbing: Whether it's worn out pipes or hidden leaks that have grown over time, we often find hidden horrors when it comes to plumbing in historic properties. Bodged brickwork: We don't need to explain this one. You've seen it too on many occasions, we're sure. Hidden original features: Nothing makes us sadder than when we see polystyrene ceiling tiles hiding an ornate ceiling, or lino covering intricately decorated floor tiles. Embrace what is already there! Faulty wiring: Probably the most dangerous of them all, and shockingly (no pun intended!) common. #Renovation #HouseBuilding #Construction

FALLS IN BALCONIES It is crucial to consider falls in balconies, rooftops, showers, and all wet areas. To ensure a safe design, I recommend familiarising yourself with #NCC 2022, AS 3740, and AS 4654.2. These resources will help you avoid devastating mistakes. However, when it comes to balconies, additional measures are necessary. Balconies can be designed in various ways, such as spanning, cantilevering, hanging, or pinning. Each design system will impact the structure's behaviour over a 10-year period, considering factors like deflection, creep, torsion, and tension. Therefore, it is essential to have a solid understanding of #StructuralEngineering, #concrete and steel technologies, and exercise common sense before determining the placement of drains. If you lack expertise in this area, I strongly advise consulting with a professional. They can provide valuable guidance and ensure the drains are positioned at the highest expected deflection after 10 years. Additionally, during construction, it is crucial to maintain a minimum 1:80 falls ratio. If you have any comments or insights, please share them below. This will foster a beneficial discussion for everyone involved, including myself. #waterproofing #concreteflooring

Are you struggling to keep your stone building warm? Older homes, especially those built before 1920, generally have solid stone wall construction rather than cavity walls. This can lead to heat loss and condensation issues, although these are issues which can also affect modern cavity walls too. This is where waterproofing exterior stone walls becomes so important. The best way to tackle the problem is to use external wall paint from our LogicFacade range. There are several ways to insulate your home’s exterior, but we stick to our tried and tested method – it’s efficient and affordable, saving you money on your energy bills and keeping your home nice and warm! 📞 0800 1700 636 for FREE survey and quote! #exterior #exteriordesign #exteriorwalls #1920s #stone #stonehouse #house #propertydevelopment #walls #brickwork #properla #insulation #logicfacade
