Project Description

Our client engaged us through their architect to fully refurbish and re-roof their home. We fitted new bathrooms and re-decorated all rooms. We installed underfloor heating in the kitchen and dining room and undertook all structural and floor works required to facilitate this. We replaced the entire plumbing system and added a water booster to increase water pressure in the house. Water softener and separate drinking water taps were also added.

Refurbishment included new floors for the entire house and fitting bespoke furniture from Blakes. The house was internally insulated using extremely low VOC Icynene spray foam supplied and installed by London Insulation. We created a new basement utility room and fitted out a media room with personalised home cinerma supplied by Smart Space Group. The living and reception rooms feature a large glazing partition giving those rooms a feeling of open-ness while delineating the space.

The whole house is now fully mechanically ventilated with a heat recovery unit installed in the attic. We fitted high quality timber sash and casement windows supplied by TS joinery. In the roof we fitted electronically operated Velux windows with electronic blinds. These are automatically operated by the Loxone smart home system which controls blinds, curtains and heating in the house. We used high quality Loxone fittings such as light switches.

The bathrooms feature high end fixtures, fittings and finishes. We installed a new patio garden and undertook all landscaping.

“It quickly became clear that Bow Tie want to do a good job, they want their work to be to a high standard, no problem is too small to discuss and identify solutions, they really want to get it right.”

“We had a lot of people stay over Christmas, some quite elderly, who were concerned about being in a big old house in Winter and being cold and we received a lot of complements on the comfort and easy warmth. There is no higher accolade than complements on your house from your mother-in-law!”

“I did get the benefit of regular updates and involvement in the project so I could see the quality of the work.”

“Bow Tie Construction were very professional, they did things to a very high standard and paid a lot of attention to detail. When small issues were flagged here or there they were always keen to investigate and fix them.”

– Francis M

“We’re expecting a dramatic reduction in costs. We now know how much energy we’ve used (in March) and we rarely have the heating on compared to this time last year in our old house.”
