This project, designed by Stephen Jones Architects, involved the challenging task of propping and excavating beneath an existing dwelling that dates back to 1909. Due to the nature of the building’s age and historic significance, meticulous planning and careful execution was required to ensure the structure’s integrity was maintained throughout the process. The work took 18 months to complete, during which we carefully refurbished and extended the property adding new roofs, chimney, bathroom, kitchen, additional living space and block retaining walls. Our team took great care to manage the delicate balance between maintaining the building’s heritage and making necessary updates to enhance both its functionality and aesthetics.
Our capable team is well-versed in the complexities of working with older structures, ensuring that your project is completed efficiently, safely, and with a deep respect for the history of the building. If you have a build that requires propping and excavating under an existing structure or require work to be done on a historic building we would love to assist.
