A very spacious site make working much easier than some of our less spacious sites in the past. A new two bedroom bungalow being built close to the sea just adds to this prime location in this popular village. The ground conditions are unfortunately not suitable to have the normal concrete foundation and therefore piling is required. These piles will be drilled around 10 meters in to bedrock and in total 17 piles will be placed around the foot print of the Building.
Carnon Contractors will be responsible for these works and A1 has over all responsibility as principle contractor. A1 Complete Builders will then make steel beam cages on site and fit on top of and around the 17 piles in question. Once the cages are in place we will then pour concrete over to tie the whole structure together in place.
A video will be made of this process and can be viewed in our video section.
All windows supplied by C.A.W. Electrics by York Electrics and Plumbing by Ollie Plumbing and Heating.
Duration of time on site 6 months
We have been instructed to renovate this charming Cob Cottage in Trencreek, Newquay.
Sand and Cement applied over the years and now severe damp problems and render blown and cracked in various areas. Once the cement based render was removed it was evident that most wood lintels were rotten and had to be replaced, again once the moisture is locked in wood will decay and rot eventually also causing the cob to collapse.
Various areas needed some T.L.C and cob stitching together and a mesh over lay to prevent further cracking.
St Astier N.H.L 2 mixed with C.L.S 28 in first scatt and C.L.S 30 for dubbing coats followed by C.L.S 33 for top coat.
