We’re making great progress on this project, with the mitred hips now coming together alongside the main slate work. These details take real time, patience and precision, because every slate, cut and angle has to line through perfectly for the finished roof to look and perform as it should.

Traditional workmanship, built to last πŸ‘Œ

Our client came to us wanting to transform their kitchen and garage area into a more open, functional space that works for modern family life. A space where the family could come together and just 'work' for them.

After talking together to discuss plans, we carried out structural alterations and layout improvements, including:

βœ… Altering existing openings to accommodate new windows, doors, and bi-folds
βœ… Partially replacing the existing glazed roof with a solid structure and a new glazed apex
βœ… Creating a new pantry by reconfiguring part of the garage
βœ… Relocating the boiler and modifying internal walls
βœ… Installing brick slips on an existing wall for a refined finish

The project also included a newly fitted kitchen and updated flooring, completing the transformation of the space.

Needless to say this space now benefits from a brighter, more functional layout, where every detail has been considered to enhance the way the space works and feels.

Big progress this week at our Alderley Edge project as we move onto the roof stage πŸ”¨

This is always an exciting phase where the roofline takes shape and the home’s character really starts to reveal itself.

The design combines a slate-clad pitched roof with a central flat roof section, allowing us to create a new second floor while maintaining the overall look and feel of the property.

The dormers will be finished in lead, adding depth, texture, and a durable, high-quality finish that will stand the test of time. We’ll also be mitring the slate at the hips – a traditional detail that gives a sharper, more refined finish and reflects the level of craftsmanship going into the build.

A key stage where precision really matters, not just for how it looks, but for how it performs for years to come.

Part two of this transformation coming soon πŸ‘€
