renovation project in lincolnshire...
the
property was the shell of a victorian detached three bedroom house in
lincolnshire in which there had been a fire. seen as an investment,
it was to be sold on when finished and so the aim was to make it structurally
sound and in good decorative order without overspending on design features
and materials.
we
initially arranged for contractors to come in and remove the timber
affected by dry rot in the rear of the house, inject a new damp proof
course and install new plumbing and electrics throughout.
we
then moved stud walls to create a larger bathroom, replaced all the
ceilings, levelled floors, added new coving, replaced the burnt skirting
and replastered throughout. a new kitchen and bathroom were fitted,
new gas fires connected in both the sitting and dining rooms and all
rooms were decorated in a range of neutral colours
finally,
new floorings were fitted and the house furnished as a show house ready
for sale.
