Contract Value

Circa £600k

Project Description

We are currently on-site with this project in Stamford Brook. It is a total retrofit and refurbishment in a conservation area with sash windows at the front elevation. A large basement is also being added. Due to planning constraints we are fitting internal insulation to the front elevation and external to the rear. A variety of insulation materials and thermal isolation techniques are being employed.

This is our third project with bere:architects who are well-known Passivhaus architects. We are grateful to have an open and fruitful collaborative relationship with them. We will shortly be starting a another project for Bere in Hammersmith and one in Oxford.

“Rafael was not only a competent builder but was fully involved in a complete refurbishment job from conception to realisation.”

– Carole R
“All the onsite employees were polite and meticulously tidy, doing their very best to fit in around us.”

– Raza R
“Rafael is very familiar with the latest building technologies and is always on hand to offer suggestions and advice on the practicalities of achieving the desired end product.”

– Brian A
“This house is cosy and comfortable but in a natural way. Our old house was of similar scale, area and build and if you wanted to heat a room you had to blast it and the air would then be very dry and that heat would quickly leak out.”

– Toni M
“Rafael was involved from the beginning and contributed useful ideas and suggestions throughout the project.”
