Single-storey rear extension in Bradford, BD12
Photographed as it happened, from the first machine on the garden to the garden walls going back.
A single-storey rear extension on a stone-built property in BD12, taken from a levelled garden through to a watertight shell with a lantern in the roof.
The reason this one is on the site in full is that it covers the parts of a job a client never normally sees. Once the floor is down and the plaster is on, nobody can tell you whether the foundations were right, whether the drainage was done properly, or whether the roof was built warm or cold. These photographs were taken in the order the work happened, so you can look.
