    Installation of large steels and various steelwork as per engineers design.

    Posted 24 January

    Just Extensions installed a number of large steels to the rear of our property to support the house and enable a single storey extension to be built. This was a critical stage in the build and honestly quite nerve wracking seeing the house being picked apart in preparation for the new steel. However, Tony and Rich reassured us throughout the process and completed some great work, including the installation of a 1 tonne steel across the back of the house. We are now confident our 1930's house is well supported and it's allowed for a large open plan room to be created.

    Construct timber roof with three roof lights and concealed gutter details

    Posted 24 January

    Just Extensions constructed a timber roof for our single storey extension; The roof was constructed to plan including insulation and was sealed using an Alwitra membrane. The concealed gutter works brilliantly and is connected to a soakaway in the garden, which Tony and Rich (Just Extensions) dug beforehand. Then came the 3 roof lights, which finished off the roof nicely and provide so much light to the extension. The work carried out is of a high standard and I have no doubt will prove the test of time.

    Build shell in brick and block, all to plans

    Posted 24 January

    Just Extensions laid the brick and block work on our single storey extension measuring approximately 9m x 4m. This stage of the build was highly satisfying seeing the shell coming to life as per the architects plans. The brickwork has been completed to a high standard and we've received numerous compliments on how good it is.

    Clear site, mark out, excavate and put concrete foundations

    Posted 24 January

    We commissioned Just Extensions to clear and excavate our back garden in preparation for a single storey extension. We were pleasantly surprised how efficiently this stage was completed and to a high standard. Concrete foundations were then poured including some additional underpinning work in readiness for the extension build. Rich and Tony's work gave us great confidence for the next stage(s) of the project.

    Project Management and Liase with Building Control

    Posted 20 August 2024

    Our Bungalow extension couldn’t have gone more smoothly. Tony and Richard took care of everything from start to finish including liaising with Building Control. I didn’t have to worry about anything, They were here every day, discussed what was happening and what decisions had to be made. I didn’t even meet the building control guy as he was clearly happy with everything that had been done. Everything went to plan, materials were her in time and there wasn’t a day when something wasn’t happening. Very organised and very professional.

    Upvc fascia, soffit and gutters

    Posted 20 August 2024

    As part of our bungalow extension, the gutters soffits and facias were installed by Tony the day after the roof was completed. Very neat and tidy job and all works perfectly. We had a small change to make as the down pipe was where we later decided to put an outside light. (After thought) Tony fixed this and the outside light and guttering look great!

    Installation of glass roof light

    Posted 20 August 2024

    We had a 2 meter by 1meter flat glass roof light installed as part of the extension to our bungalow. Although this was larger than previous flat ones they had installed, the glass alone was extremely heavy. After much discussion they had a plan and it couldn’t have gone more smoothly. I’m so happy with it, much better than the lantern type ones as you have a clear view.

    Construction of low pitch timber roof

    Posted 15 August 2024

    Working to the structural calculations, our warm timber roof was constructed with great skill and expertise from Tony. I’m no expert in timber roofs but this looked really solid, bolted together beams and tied into our existing roof. It was kept water tight at all times. We had a large flat sky light going in and this was delivered in plenty of time so the opening could be made exactly to fit. The timber work was very neat and precise, almost a shame to cover it with plasterboard! A specialist roofing company was used to fit 3layers of mineral felt and we were water tight in just a day.

    Brickwork and General Building

    Posted 15 August 2024

    The brickwork on our extension is first class. Our existing bungalow is half brick and half render and Richard suggested we match this on the new extension and I’m so glad we did. He found almost an exact match to our existing red brick and lined it up perfectly. The brick laying is faultless, he is very skilled in this area. The bricks and block work went up quickly and between Tony and Richard we were soon up to roof level. They spotted a potential problem with our existing lintels, very reasonable prices were discussed and repairs carried out the next day. Site was tidy at all times.

    Groundwork Drainage and Foundations

    Posted 15 August 2024

    Foundations for our extension were dug in just a day and all soil moved to the front for the grab lorry. Mini digger was hired as we had good access to the side. It was discovered that our current soak away wasn’t sufficient for the new extension so prices were discussed and they cracked on with it straight away. Materials arrived the next day and the new soakaway was connected, filled in and turf replaced. All materials arrived promptly. There were no delays or breaks in the building works. The building inspector was more than happy with the foundations.
