The Works

The project began with the erection of scaffolding around the entire perimeter of the building to ensure safe access for the extensive roofing and structural work. The entire stone roof was then re-roofed using the existing stone slates, preserving the building’s traditional appearance. All leadwork was renewed to ensure long-lasting weatherproofing. Significant structural upgrades included the installation of 33 linear metres of steel universal beams and new roof joists to support the roof and improve overall stability.

Additional modifications included creating an opening for a new roof light and the installation of a Roof Maker roof lantern to enhance natural light within the interior. The flat roof area was upgraded with a new SIKA 625 flat roofing system, followed by the installation of water-resistant P5 flooring. The guttering was replaced with a seamless system to improve drainage efficiency. New Velux windows were fitted, and new purlins were installed above the hot tub area to reinforce the roof structure. The hot tub was craned into position with precision, and a new dormer was constructed, adding both character and functional space to the property.
