STONYCROFT, SAMFORD SPINEY

The company recently completed the refurbishment of 'Stonycroft' an imposing property set on the edge of Dartmoor. The project included a fully roofed scaffold, the rebuilding of the granite chimneys and re-roofing of the house in new Delabole slate. Many of the original windows were replaced with new hardwood windows. Internally the company altered the layout to form three additional en-suite bathrooms and an additional bathroom. A new fully designed heating system was installed. Tanking work at the rear of the property was undertaken before the inside of the house was redecorated and re-papered. The contract was carried out on a negotiated basis, after an earlier job for the client was completed successfully.

VIXEN TOR

The extension on the remote 'Vixen Tor Cottage' was completed in November 2008, it was a difficult project because of the ground conditions and the distance materials had to be carried to the site. The building was a traditional construction with a cut roof, slate floors and purpose made windows and doors which were made in the company's new joinery workshop. The contract was a negotiated contract, after the completion of an earlier extension for the client.
