Dining room of the finished ground floor at dusk

Project

Kestrel Row
ground floor

A tired ground floor opened into one room, with a new kitchen, a utility and a living space finished in eleven weeks.

The brief

One room instead of four

The owners cooked in a galley at the back of the house and never used the front room. We took out two partitions, moved the services and turned the whole floor into one space that gets light from both ends.

How this one ran

Eleven weeks, three stages

The same three stages every project gets, with the dates this one actually hit.

01

Weeks 1 to 2

Survey, structural check on the two partitions, fixed price signed and the cabinetry ordered.

02

Weeks 3 to 9

Partitions out, steel in, new drainage and circuits, plaster, floor, then the kitchen fit.

03

Weeks 10 to 11

Decoration, snag list cleared, appliances tested and a full clean before handback.

Thanks, that is with us.
This is a demo theme, so nothing was actually sent. On a live site the studio would reply within one working day.
