Stage 01
Groundwork & Base
Marking out, membrane down, and the concrete base laid and levelled — the reference point for everything built on top of it.

Featured Project
Concept to finished garden office — in two weeks.
The brief was simple: a solid, insulated, modern garden office. From there it was down to me — no architect, no separate contractors, from the first stake in the ground to the final board of cladding. It's the clearest example I can show of what's possible when a job's planned properly before the first tool comes out.
2 Weeks
Start to Finish
Solo
Design & Build
Fully
Insulated & Lined
The Build
From foundations to finished room.
Six stages, start to finish.
Stage 02
Floor & Frame Kit
Insulated floor joists go down first, then the wall and roof panels are lifted into place, one at a time.
Stage 03
Walls Up & Roof On
Framing, walls and roof closed in — the shape of the room fully formed before the weather can get at it.
Stage 04
Windows, Doors & Weathertight
Windows and doors fitted and the roof made weathertight — the point it stops being a frame and starts being a room.
Stage 05
Insulated & First-Fixed
Insulation and plasterboard go in — the unglamorous middle stretch that makes the room actually usable.
Stage 06
Cladding & Finish
Timber cladding, trim and final details — the last stage before it's ready to move a desk into.
Every Step
The full build, in order.
