Do you have an old barn that you’re looking to convert? Or do you have loft space in your current property that you want to make usable? We are specialists in undertaking both loft and barn conversions, and have extensive experience of working within dated properties.

Loft and barn conversions are popular renovation projects that can add valuable living space to a property or piece of land. They offer unique design opportunities, but also present challenges that require careful planning and consideration. By working with a reputable builder, you can transform such a space into a beautiful and functional living area.

Loft conversions are a great way to make use of underutilized space in a home. They are often less expensive and disruptive than building an extension or moving to a larger property. There are several types of loft conversions, including dormer, hip-to-gable, and mansard, each with its own benefits and considerations. A dormer conversion involves adding a dormer window to the roof, which creates additional headroom and floor space. A hip-to-gable conversion involves extending the roofline and creating vertical walls to increase the usable space. A mansard conversion is a more complex conversion that involves altering the shape of the roof to create additional living space. With careful planning, we can offer any of the aforementioned solutions to meet your needs.

Barn conversions are popular in rural areas, where there may be unused or derelict agricultural buildings that can be transformed into homes or offices. Barns offer a unique opportunity to create a space with character, often featuring exposed beams, high ceilings, and large windows. However, they can also present challenges, such as lack of insulation or uneven floors, that need to be addressed during the conversion process.

A successful barn conversion will balance the preservation of the original character with modern amenities and functionality. We have worked with organisations such as English Heritage and specialist conservation architects, to provide solutions for properties that are protected in their own right.

Don’t let the age or size of your property put you off from development; we are here to help turn your dreams into reality!

Our team have the necessary experience and qualifications to undertake a range of groundwork. Groundworks projects are an essential part of any construction project, providing the foundation for the building and ensuring that the site is prepared for the construction process. Groundworks projects typically involve excavating and preparing the site, installing drainage and utilities, and laying the foundation for the building. Here are some of our common groundwork projects:

Site Clearance
Before any construction can begin, the site must be cleared of any existing buildings, trees, or debris. Site clearance involves the removal of any obstacles that may interfere with the construction process.

Excavation
Excavation involves the removal of soil and rock from the site in preparation for the building foundation. This may include digging trenches for utilities such as water, gas, and electricity.

Drainage
Proper drainage is critical to the longevity and stability of any building. Groundworks projects typically include the installation of drainage systems to ensure that water is properly diverted away from the building and site.

Foundations
The foundation is the most important part of any building. Groundworks projects involve the installation of the foundation, which provides a stable base for the building and distributes the weight of the structure evenly.

Retaining Walls
If the site has a slope or uneven terrain, retaining walls may be necessary to provide a level surface for the building foundation. Retaining walls can be made of a variety of materials, including concrete, stone, and brick.

Paving and Surfacing: Once the groundworks are complete, the site may need to be paved or surfaced to provide access to the building. This may include installing driveways, pavements, and parking areas.

It’s important to work with a professional contractor to ensure that your project is completed safely and efficiently. F W Codd can help you navigate the complex process of site preparation and groundswork, and ensure that all necessary permits and regulations are met. With the right groundworks, you can ensure that your building has a solid foundation and a stable base for years to come.
